ARIES
Mar. 21 – Apr. 19

You want to get away from the routine which is fine. But pick a location that does more than relax you.

Seek inspiration from your setting – maybe somewhere you’ve never been and always wanted to experience. Come back refreshed and energized to try new things. Challenging times are coming and you need to have new ideas for handling them. The rest will prove essential.

TAURUS
Apr.20 – May 20

Things begin to look up financially which will take some pressure off you at home.

Stash some of that money aside for the next rainy day and don’t splurge.

In fact, stay close to home and concentrate on projects that will improve your mood and living conditions.

Call your family and keep in touch in other ways as well.

GEMINI
May 21 – Jun. 20

You’ve invested a lot of time and effort, maybe even some money, too, and now is the time to reap the benefits.

CANCER
Jun. 21 – Jul. 22

Something has been nagging at you about a friend or coworker. This week everything comes into focus.

LIBRA
Sep. 23 – Oct. 22

SCORPIO
