The Sun enters Aries and all things seem new and possible. What we once thought was a done deal now becomes a reversal and we go ablazing in new directions. It may be wise to pause before setting any plans in place as the retrograde of Mercury tends to cloud the issue. However with Uranus involved all bets are off as the planet of revolution simply spins up the dust like never before. Electrical energy may be widely evident and the charge of tense and exciting drama lights up all conversations. We should welcome this strong desire for change with a bold step forward. Setting plans in place for implementation in a few weeks is perhaps the most prudent approach. Action with restraint.

Aries 

 As the Sun slips into Aries this week you'll be firing on all pistons as Mercury (retrograde), Uranus and the Moon all join in your house of self. This means you'll be on top of the world and riding high. You should have great opportunity for occupational challenges. Never one to be shy; step on up.

This should be a fairly active time for finishing up projects and turning over new leafs. This may be especially relevant with regard to education and travel. You may be feeling a renewed sense of accomplishment as many of your plans and goals are finally falling into place and beginning to pay off.

This could be a particularly significant week for building new relationships and establishing new boundaries. You have great support for research (simply double check with Mercury retro). This could be an ideal time for looking into angel investors and grant monies. If you can find a way to bring your goals in line with outside resources you'll be amazed.    

Cancer   
You should see lots of activity in the career front. Be sure to kick it up a notch if you can. You'll be happy you did. You have lots of potential for remarkable discoveries and pleasant surprises and your significant other could be behind some of them. What could that mean?

This would be a fabulous time to be involved in anything to do with training, traveling, or philosophy. If you visit a school where you are researching a new program you will have accomplished all three. Good aspects for finances as well. Maybe you are interested in some business training.             

You may be immersed in large organizational mumbo-jumbo and it could be a bit frustrating or at least time-consuming. With Mars in Virgo and retrograde you could be having to double your efforts to get the paperwork done. Simply pay attention to the details. There could be a missing piece in there somewhere. Look carefully.

Beware of lots of activity in your significant relationships this week. Does that mean good times or bad? Well it can be one or the other, but expect to see some animated conversations there. Remember that balance and the middle way is the secret to diplomacy. Emotions could be running quite hot. Oh ya!

This would be a good week to spend some time focused on your health. Not that you have to worry. In fact, if you go in for routines now you'll most likely get good results. You may be feeling a bit overwhelmed and slower than usual, but it is simply a matter of being responsible.

An especially creative time awaits this week if you can collaborate with others on new products, designs, and anything of that nature. You may be surprised by the positive reaction you get from those at work. This should be an excellent time to shine at work. You will be driven to succeed.

This week should provide a special time for family activities this week. You could find out some pleasant news regarding siblings or your living arrangement. You have direct impact on the success of the family and your presence can be quite profound. You may be seen as one of the foundational members.

You should expect to spend a lot of time this week communicating. This may mean either through direct written word or through research and investigations that require queries. This would be particularly true for large organizations. Maybe grant-writing or something similar? This could signal a bold new direction and you may have seen where you want to go.

Should you buy a lottery ticket this week? Well, it sure wouldn't hurt. You will see marvelous activity in your money sector so pay attention. You might be shifting money around and making investments. It would also be wise to seek some professional advice on this topic. Two heads and all, you know...
