All Signs

Venus stays in one sign for three weeks. But starting now, Venus is in Leo until October 8. Holy Lollypop! This will be the flavor of our summer! Venus has the power of attraction. It draws things to you — especially love, romance, money and fun times. It’s a social planet. Venus is also the expression of the creativity. Think of it this way: Neptune (perfection) was the music Beethoven heard, but Venus is what he wrote. This summer, we will all be blessed with the perfume of Venus in Leo. It will permeate our lives with romance, prosperity and pleasure. With too much of a good thing going it seems appropriate for a word from that famous Leo, Mae West. Take your pick: “I like restraint if it doesn’t go too far.” Or, “Did you get a hair cut or have your ears moved down?”Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are guaranteed a summer full of fun, entertainment and romance. That’s because fair Venus will be sitting in your House of Amusement and Creative Self-expression for four months! This totally promotes new romance or the rekindling of existing relationships. It will also bring good times with children. This is excellent news for you in particular, because you are the artisan of the zodiac, and your creative vibes will be flowing! Enjoy vacations and social occasions with others because Venus always ranks pleasure above work. Your summer will be liberating because Venus will give you the courage to be exactly who you are without fear or apology.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

In the next four months, one of the things you will be doing is redecorating where you live. You enjoy beautiful things and fine antiques, and from June to October, your focus will be on redecorating your home as well as entertaining at home. And possibly, for some, moving into a new home will happen because a real estate opportunity is irresistible. It’s important to know that Venus not only represents beauty and social engagement, it is also represents money. This means your chance to explore real estate opportunities is strong in the next four months! Venus will also improve your relations with parents and family members. Not only will you enjoy fun parties, you’ll also enjoy peaceful, quiet hours where you live.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

For the next four months, Venus will beautifully improve all your communications with others. This means you will be impossibly charming, diplomatic and articulate. (And you already are the wordsmith of the zodiac!) In addition, Venus will ensure that your words, through writing, acting, teaching or selling, will attract money. Ka-ching! Because Venus is also associated with beauty, you will be surprised to discover how attractive your daily surroundings are — almost as if you hadn’t noticed before. Likewise, you will be warmed by the realization of how much love there is in your daily life. Gosh. (Yes, this sounds corny or too good to be true — but it’s the truth.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Well, there is certainly good news for your sign because this summer, Venus will have the power to attract wonderful things to you, and one of them is money. This is because for the next four months, Venus will be sitting in your House of Money and Wealth. No need to connect the dots — it’s obvious. This means you will benefit from financial transactions. You might get a better job. You might get a raise. You can borrow money. The only downside is you will also want to spend money on beautiful things and fun times. Oh yes — now you see it, now you don’t. If you have money to burn — stay away from people with matches!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a most unusual blessing for you, dear Leo. Usually, fair Venus is in your sign for a brief three weeks — it arrives, then poof! It’s gone. But starting this week, Venus will be in your sign until October 8. Yes, spring, summer and fall! This is a fantastic blessing for you. It will affect your whole manner of expressing yourself to others. For starters, you will have a desire to relate to others, and you will see ways to make peace with others, as well. You will enjoy the company of friends and lovers this summer and will be highly social and active. You will definitely spend more money on your wardrobe and jewelry than you have in years!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Virgo is the sign of service. It’s just who you are. You truly appreciate the saying, “It’s a joy to labor for those you love.” In the next four months, Venus will prompt you to be the best you can be — the most generous, the most giving, the most selfless. And you will be this person! And because of this, you will help others who need a hand or a sympathetic ear. In turn, you will feel more self-respect and a rewarding sense of satisfaction because you are able to offer this to others. It feels good, and you will feel happier. This kind of happiness is a genuine happiness, which is something different from sensual, fleeting pleasure. Pleasure fades; happiness remains as a state of mind.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are a social sign, and Venus is a social planet. For the next four months, Venus will be sitting in the part of your chart that denotes friendship, groups, clubs and associations. This means you will have a fabulous time with others whether playing golf, enjoying picnics, barbecues, parties or attending meetings and conferences — it’s all the same for Venus. Your dealings with others will be agreeable and warm-hearted. In fact, a casual friend might become a lover. One thing is certain: Beyond your enjoyment of the company of others — you will benefit by your association with others. Major bonus!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

It will be unusual and beneficial for you to have the blessing of Venus at the top of your chart for four months. This is rare. For starters, it will let you create a great impression on others, especially VIPs and bosses. People will open doors for you in every sense of the word. Not only will others admire you, they will seek out your input about design, layout, redecorating and PR. You might strike up a new relationship with someone who is older, richer or a mentor figure. Ah yes, a marriage to someone rich is a wonderful labor-saving device. But remember: If you marry for money, you will work for every dollar.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You have an amazing summer ahead — actually, the next four months. This is because both Jupiter and Venus are in the part of your chart that governs travel and exploring the world. Does this sound like anyone we know? Does this ring a bell, Pavlov? Count on opportunities to explore the world. Many of you will have a long, pleasurable trip. In addition, you can make money from writing, publishing and exploring avenues in medicine and the law. You will also enjoy studying and doing anything that expands your mind and your experience of life. Romance with someone from another country or a different background is also likely. What a fun way to learn a new language!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

For the next four months, fair Venus will be sitting in the part of your chart that rules money and sex — and let us not forget that Venus has the power to attract and draw these things to you. (Be still my beating heart.) Sexual relationships will have greater intensity and become a vehicle for self-transformation. Pretty heady stuff. In addition, you will attract money to you through your spouse or your business partner. Obviously, it will be easy for you to get a loan or a mortgage this summer. (Up until mid October.) In addition, you will learn more about yourself, especially how you relate to others. Self-knowledge involves knowing your own motivation.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is certainly a year where your closest relationships and partnerships have fabulous opportunities to improve. Initially, this was because Jupiter has been in Leo. But now, in quite a rare celestial dance, Venus will be opposite your sign for the next four months. This is most unusual! And it is most welcome! Nothing could improve your close relationships more. It means you will naturally feel yourself in balance and in tune with others. It will be easy for you to express your affection and make your feelings clear. Even your relations with your enemies, as well as the general public, will improve. You will be loved and appreciated for who you are. (It’s all smoke and mirrors.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

The good news for you for the next four months is that your health will improve. You will also be in the perfect position to deal with important negotiations with others whether they are personal or professional. You will enjoy your job much more, and possibly get praise, a raise or a better job. Because your ability to benefit from important discussions and agreements will be stellar — seek a new path that you want to approach, especially that is job-related — and do it! You have the magic touch. Let the genie out of the bottle. Expect financial favors from employers and bosses. (And you can take that to the bank.)
