WEEKLY FORECAST:

 

aries icon  ARIES:  March 21-April 19

Remember, start nothing new before Aug. 28. This is your last brief enjoyment of a romantic phase, Aries. Thursday begins a month of work, machinery and minor health issues. (These are favourable at present.) You’re still very busy with errands, calls, trips, paperwork. Your future is deeply changing, now through 2044 — new and different friends will enter. Sunday through late afternoon Monday (PDT) emphasizes this far-flung future, as friends gather, and your popularity and happiness soar. (Sunday best, as Monday has some strong disruptions.) Retreat, lie low, rest and contemplate Monday eve to mid-afternoon Wednesday. Reality might bring deflating news Monday, which can make you impulsive Tuesday, then passive Wed. Proceed carefully, esp. with gov’t and “head office.” Your energy and charisma surge back Wednesday eve to Friday eve. A good interval, but don’t bother chasing romance: excitement without long-term harmony. Collect $, buy/sell Friday night into the weekend. Casual intimacy possible.

 

taurus icon  TAURUS:  April 20-May 20

Start nothing new before August. 28, Taurus. Your money situation remains good — there might be a bonus or “treasure” awaiting you if you dig deep enough, or deal with the gov’t. Your romantic life is still quiet, but remains affectionate. Thursday begins a month of romance, pleasure, beauty and risk. Before this, you remain in “domestic mode” — family, property, security, food and mother nature figure prominently. A past situation might “return” here — if so, “work with it” the remainder of August. Sunday to Monday afternoon (PDT) urges you to be ambitious. Sunday best — Monday holds a lot of “interruptions.” Friends, social delights, entertainment, flirting and optimism light your heart Monday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon. (Still, your energy’s low, so go easy.) Retreat, rest, contemplate and deal with gov’t or management types Wednesday eve to Friday suppertime. Thursday, romance promises more than it delivers. Your energy and pizzazz returns strongly Friday eve into the weekend — your relative seclusion is over!

 

gemini icon  GEMINI:  May 21-June 20

Start nothing new, Gemini. This is your last week of errands, paperwork, writing, travelling, fielding calls — some of these come from, or concern, the past. Thursday starts a “down home” month for you — family, security, mother nature, rest and recuperation. (This sector is pleasant at present.) Until January, it’s better to aim for a group than a “single love.” You’re brave now, but don’t be aggressive. Sunday to late afternoon Monday (PDT) emphasizes profound ideas, religion, media, law, education, international themes, and love — Sunday’s lucky, Monday’s not! Be ambitious late Monday afternoon to same time Wednesday — a fairly productive phase, no big deal. Friends gather, your popularity and optimism climb, flirts and entertainment arrive, Wednesday evening to suppertime Friday. All’s well, but don’t push romance Thursday. Retreat Friday night into the weekend — take a slower pace, rest, contemplate and liaise with gov’t or “head office.” All’s well.

 

Cancer icon  CANCER:  June 21-July 20

Start nothing new, Cancer. This is your last week of chasing money — soon, Thursday onward, you’ll be chasing facts, documents, reports, filling out paperwork, travelling and communicating. Your relations with gov’t and management remain fortunate for 9 more months. At present, you might be offered a second chance to move into management, or to solve a problem with gov’t, head office or institutions. Do chase $ Sunday — but be careful, alert with money, purchasing (and sexual desires) Monday. Late afternoon Monday (PDT) to the same time Wednesday, brings a wise, mellow mood, far travel, international themes, gentle love, law and other intellectual activities. Your luck here is up and down, but mostly favourable. Be ambitious Wednesday eve to Friday suppertime — all’s good, but don’t chase romance Thursday. Friday eve into the weekend brings friends, hope, happiness, flirting and entertainment — plunge in, have fun!

 

Leo icon  LEO:  July 21-Aug. 22

Start nothing new, Leo. This is your last week of high “personal presence” — Thursday starts four weeks of material matters: money, income, buying/selling, possessions, rote learning, and casual lust. This area, though favoured and fortunate now (and most of August past) will have some rough patches until early September, so remain alert. (Rough patches = where you have hopes too high, or let friends mix with your $.) You remain socially very lucky for 9 more months. One who returns now, if anyone does, could wed you in future. Relationships will undergo deep changes now to 2044, probably involving where you live, family, children, nature. A hint of this occurred last Saturday eve (Aug. 17) and will this Sunday to Monday afternoon (PDT), as meetings and agreement/opposition take place. Sunday’s fortunate (at least on the surface) but Monday is very tricky: go slow. Do not believe in a “hopeful plan.” Sexy desires, major finances, research, medical and lifestyle decisions arise late Monday to Wednesday afternoon — all’s okay; listen to your intuition. Profound ideas, international themes, law, religion, education — and gentle love — greet you late day Wednesday to early suppertime Friday. But romance isn’t a winner Thursday, even if it seems so. Be ambitious Friday eve into the weekend — prestige, worldly standing will be highlighted.

 

virgo icon  VIRGO:  Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Start nothing new, Virgo. A month of quietude and weariness ends Thursday, as four weeks of personal energy, presence, clout and charisma begin. Your career and other ambitions are super lucky for the next 9 months, so don’t “retreat” on this front. Despite your weariness, you have remained attractive to some people. For a year, you face sober and slow acceptance by others, but in romance, this aids you, could lead to a deeply felt marriage. Dig into chores Sunday to Monday afternoon (PDT). Sunday’s lucky, but Monday’s the opposite, so stay alert, practice safety, especially around electricity. Relationships, opportunities and opposition, public appearances slated for Monday eve to late afternoon Wed. — a fairly “even keel” phase. Wednesday eve to suppertime Friday highlights intuition, research, major financial situations, lust, commitment and consequence. Again, a fair few days, but avoid commitments, signature. A mellow, tolerant and gently loving mood fills Friday night and the weekend. All’s well!

 

libra icon  LIBRA:  Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Start nothing new, Libra. A hopeful, celebratory mood has buoyed you for a few weeks — Thursday nudges you to retreat from the hustle and bustle for four weeks, as you subside into rest, contemplation and planning (AFTER Aug. 28 to plan). An old flame could re-appear this week or next — it was a light, friendly affair, but had potential wedding vibes, too. Weddings and all social rituals — and international issues, intellectual pursuits, philosophy, publishing — are blessed for nine more months. A foreign-born person figures prominently. You have good relations with head office, and the gov’t — these will need attention in the month ahead. Sunday to late afternoon Monday (PDT) emphasizes romance, creativity, invention, risk, charming children, beauty and pleasure — all encouraged by the cosmos Sunday daytime, but NOT during a difficult Monday. This suppertime to suppertime Wednesday features chores and duties. Eat, dress sensibly and don’t argue. All’s fine. Relationships, opportunities, public appearances rise late Wednesday to early supper Friday — but at the same time your charisma and energy begin to decline. Hmm. A “sudden romance” is bold but will be short-lived. Lust for sex or power (or money) calls you Friday eve into the weekend. After a possible initial bump Friday, all looks set for profit and deep experience.

 

scorpio icon  SCORPIO:  Oct. 23-Nov. 21

Start nothing new, Scorpio. This is your last week of ambition, of being tested, of concerns over prestige relations and your worldly status. Thursday begins a whole month of popularity, social delights, light romance/flirting, optimism and entertainment. A good time to join a group (better after Aug. 28). For 9 more months, your sexual and financial sides are immensely favoured — aim for one or the other, be willing to commit. Sunday/Monday accent your ambitions and relations with higher-ups — Sunday’s fine, even benevolent, but Monday’s terrible: be cautious. Late afternoon Monday to the same time Wednesday (all PDT) brings a romantic atmosphere, and creative ideas, pleasure and beauty. However, not a lot happens, so just enjoy life’s beauties. Tackle chores Wednesday eve to suppertime Friday — an easy time; you’ll get a lot done. But forget romance Thursday. Friday eve into the weekend brings exciting meetings, relocation themes, and opportunities (reject brand new ones).

 

sagittarius icon  SAGITTARIUS:  Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Start nothing new before August. 28, Sage. This is your last week of far travel, profound thoughts, legal, educational, and social ritual involvements. Thursday begins a month of ambition, career, testing by higher-ups, prestige relations and worldly status. (This week and next, higher-ups look on you kindly.) Until Sept. 4, your ambitions might interfere with relationships — or they with your ambitious goals. (Overall,  if facing a choice, let relationships win — they are, though perhaps argumentative, extremely lucky for 9 more months.) An old flame might appear. Sunday/Monday are filled with errands, messaging, trips, paperwork — Sunday succeeds, but Monday’s filled with obstacles and missteps. Monday eve to late afternoon Wednesday (PDT) nudges you toward home, family, nature, rest  — mostly okay. Romance, creative urges, pleasure and beauty grab your attention late Wednesday to early suppertime Friday. A good interval, but romance and ambition don’t combine easily Thursday. Tackle chores, repair machinery Friday night into the weekend. All’s well!

 

capricorn icon  CAPRICORN:  Dec. 22-Jan. 20

Start nothing new, Cap. You are ending a month of secrets, research, medical and lifestyle issues, important financial concerns, and pure, simple sex. Something or someone from the past might return, related to these. Thursday starts a month of intellectual progress, tolerance, gentle love, law, religion, higher learning, publishing, international affairs and potential “recognition.”

For 9 months, chores will grow — don’t handle them too impulsively or dismissively this week and next. Collect money, buy/sell, seek “friendly sex” or memorize something Sunday to Monday afternoon (PDT) — Sunday’s great, but beware Monday’s pitfalls. (Don’t commit to anything Monday.) Errands, reports and paperwork, trips and communications fill Monday late afternoon to the same time Wednesday. All’s okay, just proceed. Home, family, rest and recuperation call you Wednesday eve to suppertime Friday. It’s a nice, benevolent interval, but avoid chasing romance Thurs. Friday eve starts a weekend of romance, creativity, risk/reward, beauty and pleasure!

 

Aquarius icon  AQUARIUS:  Jan. 21-Feb. 18

Start nothing new, Aquarius. The past few weeks have brought exciting meetings, partnership prospects, relocation themes, and public appearances — while simultaneously your more intimate, personal interests (lovemaking, finances) have been favoured — with one of two returnees from the past. Thursday begins a month of secrets, investigation, major financial actions, lust for sex or power, medical and lifestyle questions. For the 9 months ahead, you will be beautifully favoured in romance, child-rearing, creative and pleasure pursuits. Your energy and charisma are high and handsome Sunday to Monday afternoon. Charge ahead Sunday daytime, but pull in the reins Monday, when all sorts of problems show up. Chase $, buy/sell, hug (or more) a friend, learn something from a book or teacher, late afternoon Monday to the same time Wednesday (PDT). All flows easily enough, but be wary of making a commitment. Wednesday eve to early suppertime Friday brings errands, communications and paperwork. All goes well, but avoid making a romantic approach Thursday. Friday night begins a weekend of rest, family, home and mother nature.

 

Pisces icon  PISCES:  Feb. 19-March 20

Start nothing new before August 28, Pisces. You’ve been rather hard at work the last few weeks (perhaps due to former clients, jobs, etc.) but Thursday starts a whole month of relationships, exciting meetings, opportunities, agreements and opposition, public appearances, and relocation themes. It’s like a breeze of fresh air. For 9 months, your real estate, family and security luck is the best in over a decade. Lie low, rest, contemplate, liaise with gov’t or institutions Sunday to late afternoon Monday (PDT). Sunday’s great, but Monday’s like shifting tectonic plates — be careful, watch what you’re doing. Your energy and charisma soar upward late Monday to late afternoon Wed. A pretty good interval, so get things done, make your mark. Family might not agree. Chase money, buy/sell, embrace casual intimacy, and/or learn something late day Wednesday to early suppertime Friday. Again, an “okay” phase, but avoid chasing romance or spousal agreement Thursday. Friday eve starts a weekend of restless trips, errands, communications and paperwork — a weekend designed for success!

THE END.

 

AFTERAMBLE:

 

Last week I wrote that the U.S. has had 46 presidents, and 17 assassinations/or attempts. I missed one obvious reason: that in a collection of hundreds of millions (depending on the century) of diverse citizens, there might be at least a thousand mad enough to dream of killing the person in charge, and one mad enough to act it out. So perhaps America is not a patricidal nation. But this numbers game cannot be the whole answer. There’s a way to check: do other nations (say the most populous fifty, excluding war-torn and/or military-ruled nations) — do they suffer as many assassination attempts as the U.S.A.? Per capita? Significantly more, less? Availability of weapons?

***

Wisdom is just part of the process. It is no more elevated than the rot that helps fungus grow. Wisdom can actually be negative: it creates caution, one of the most restrictive elements, one that often prevents discoveries, cures, wealth accumulation, new ideas, inventions, etc. Note that wisdom tends to come after a life is mostly spent, without the energy or pizzazz to add to the world. But wisdom is valuable in one thing: at the end the most enlightenment comes. That is true of anything, from love affairs to dinner parties, to death.

    About 2 years ago you wrote that Putin would suffer a series of humiliations: one around December, ’22 or January,’23, one around June, ’23 and a final one in late June, ’24.In December ,’22 some Russian soldiers carelessly smoking triggered a huge explosion in one of their facilities, June,’23 Prigozhin staged his mutiny and now August,’24 Ukraine has invaded Russia.With that final one you seem to have been off with your timing by about a month but that’s ultimately a minor technicality and your prediction remains accurate.
