Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You will be popular in the next four weeks, which is why you will enjoy interacting with friends and being busy with groups, clubs and organizations. You might take over a leadership role with a group of people. Old friends from your past are back in your world.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Lucky you! In the next four weeks, the sun will be at the top of your chart shining down on you, casting you in a flattering light. Without doing anything special, others will admire you, especially bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs. Obviously, you can use this four-week window to advance your agenda!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Do whatever you can to travel and “get away from all this” in the next four weeks because this is what you really want to do. You need to escape! You also need some diversions and a sense of adventure to juice up your life.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

More than usual, you will be focused on shared property, taxes, debt and the wealth and property of others in the next four weeks. Travel for pleasure still appeals; plus, you’re busting your buns working hard to get stuff done.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will need more sleep in the next four weeks because the sun is opposite your sign. Symbolically speaking, it is as far away from you as it gets all year and the sun is your source of energy. Meanwhile, ex-partners are back in your world because of the influence of Mercury retrograde.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are affected by your surroundings. In the next four weeks, you will work to pull your act together and get better organized. You want a home for everything so that your surroundings are more pleasant and peaceful, which will promote your own happier state of mind. Definitely!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Home, family and your private world will be your focus for the next four weeks. Many of you will be more involved than usual with a parent. Fortunately, Venus offers opportunities to socialize and have fun!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Fasten your seat belt, because the next four weeks are busy! Suddenly, you have things to do, people to see and places to go! Fortunately, Mars in your sign will give you the energy you need, especially to cope with transportation delays and mixed-up communications.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Money, possessions and your wealth will be your focus in the next four weeks. You will also feel the effects of Mercury retrograde, which will create delays in financial matters. For example, checks in the mail will be late.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

The next four weeks will bring you a chance to recharge your batteries for the rest of year. This is because the sun will be in your sign boosting your energy! You will also attract people and favorable situations to you.
