Your Stars This Week | May 18th, 2014

The coming week is likely to ask of each individual a renewed commitment to something that has held him or her in good stead in the past -- something that gives a true sense of confidence and standing, something that reflects the true self and allows one to engage in honest interaction with others, something that promotes the common welfare as well as unique and individual desires. What that is may be quite different for each person, but all know what they are after and how best to reach it. This level of commitment is required because the health of the self is paramount at this time, and that begins, of course, with the mind.

Some may consider it a waste of time to focus inward when there is so much to accomplish in the outside world, but this would be inaccurate! Nothing worth doing has ever been done without combining what lies within with what transpires without, and this week the relationship between in and out will be highlighted as never before.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- A project left undone is calling to you, and you're full of new ideas that you can apply almost immediately. (April 5-April 19) -- A partner knows just what you need, and is willing and able to give it to you in abundance. Things are looking up!

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Slow down, and you'll see things in a way you haven't before. There's no need to keep the pedal to the metal at all times. (May 6-May 20) -- Your desires are narrowing, and you'll get a keen and accurate view of what you most want in the world.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Your desires may seem almost childishly simple to others, but upon examination they will find that those desires are the foundation for all you believe in. (June 7-June 20) -- Early mornings may be required of you all week long as you tend to business that others have left undone.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You're eager to go home -- figuratively, if not literally. Your heart is leaning in a direction that could bring much comfort. (July 8-July 22) -- You'll be more dependent upon others than usual, but your needs and desires are very specific.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may not know how to navigate the week at first, but if you take it slow, a roadmap of sorts should stretch out before you. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- It's a good week to make wishes. A mystery is solved, and you may find yourself traveling to a favorite destination.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- The answer to "why" is, this week, simply "because." There's no reason to launch into more explicit explanations than this. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You can add your own unique embellishments to a very simple endeavor -- and be noticed as a result.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You can fake it if you have to, but working a little harder to achieve something more genuine can be good for everyone. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You're after something that seems elusive, but perhaps it's just something that's not placid or stationary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You've been taking something for granted that may soon be unavailable to you. You'll realize its importance. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You may find yourself chasing down the object of your desire in a more aggressive way -- and the outcome may be mixed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Survival itself is not the point; you'll want to improve the quality of your experiences across the board. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You can take a chance and score a major personal victory. A relationship gets a much-needed boost.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Someone is likely to affect you from far away. Concentrate on endeavors that allow you to express yourself freely. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You may be playing the waiting game throughout the week, as a loved one explores his or her own private avenues.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- The solution to a nagging problem is staring you in the face, but economic realities may prevent you from taking advantage of it. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Someone you work with is likely to surprise you this week as he or she presents a remarkably exciting new idea.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- What worked only days ago may not work nearly as well now, no matter when you try it. Listen to the opinions and advice of others. (March 6-March 20) -- Now is no time to sit back and let others run roughshod over you. Stand up for yourself and your ideals.

Your Stars This Week | May 11th, 2014

The coming week is likely to see many individuals scouring the landscape for information -- information that will allow progress in the planning and execution of the next big thing. While not everyone will enjoy the success they are after, all can benefit from the pursuit of that success; lessons will be learned and skills acquired that will prove beneficial, regardless of the tangible rewards that may or may not come at the end of the endeavor. Information itself can prove the prize! Anyone who has more information than others may, before the week is out, be able to call the shots.

Unsurprisingly, time will prove to be a valuable resource this week. Those who squander it will surely regret it, and those who use it wisely -- and keep some in reserve -- can enjoy fast-paced progress. Much that was equitably distributed at the start of the week will be less evenly disposed of by week's end.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You may find it hard to follow all instructions, but then you may also find it hard to determine which are truly meant for you. (April 5-April 19) -- You may have to endure a great deal of waiting around, but the end result is likely to make it all worthwhile.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- An issue of fairness comes into play, but you don't want to find yourself embroiled in a conflict over rules and regulations. (May 6-May 20) -- Take care that you don't let another run roughshod over you. Concern for others is a key commodity.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- How you define "independence" may make all the difference; you can assert your autonomy without being entirely alone! (June 7-June 20) -- You've been engaged in a solitary effort that could benefit from the inclusion of one or two friends.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Any attempt to pass your duties on to someone else will only result in a situation that you cannot easily smooth over. (July 8-July 22) -- You're likely to start something that heats up very quickly; make sure your motives are clearly understood.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may be in the mood to share more than usual, but picking just the right partner may prove more tricky and involved than expected. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You'll devise a clever pattern that allows you to get more done than you had originally planned.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Don't let any resentment or bitterness affect your interaction with those who are entirely innocent; focus on what is really bothering you. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Something you could usually take care of in a day is likely to take the entire week, for reasons that defy understanding.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- A loved one may display behavior that is inappropriate or dangerous -- or both. You'll have the opportunity to intervene. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You know how to say and do what needs to be said and done, but others may think you are merely overstepping your bounds.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Those who gravitate toward you will benefit from their contact with you, as your energy and outlook are quite positive. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- Seek out those who seem to want what you want. You may be surprised to learn that you've been fooling yourself!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You'll be trying to do things in an intellectual fashion, but your heart may well lead you down a different road. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You're nearing a turning point of sorts, and you'll want to take stock of resources and standing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Difficulties are likely to be the result of lapses in communication. You're going to want to be as efficient as possible. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- It'll be up to you throughout much of the week to let others know what to do, and when. Choose wisely!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- What only seems like fun and games is likely to prove much more important to you as you realize what the stakes really are. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You've bet on a long shot, but as the week progresses, the odds are likely to swing in your favor.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Don't settle for something unsuitable; it's important that you stand your ground and accept only what is right. (March 6-March 20) -- You'll be working with someone whose methods closely mirror your own, but his or her motives may come into question.

Your Stars This Week for May 04, 2014

Your Stars This Week | May 4th, 2014

The coming week is likely to present a number of rare opportunities to those who haven't been looking for them -- and may well keep those who are eager for advancement from enjoying the kinds of opportunities that could, indeed, provide it. This kind of topsy-turvy development of the week is partly a result of a misalignment of resources. In other words, not everyone is working at top efficiency with the kinds of tools and raw materials that are truly best for the tasks they have undertaken. The stars can provide, but not to those who have been going about things the wrong way! A failure to prepare properly or adequately can prove a major liability.

Each individual's unique tendencies can be exploited in ways that are unusual in themselves, and the results should prove an accurate reflection of both desire and ability. But all of this is dependent, of course, upon things being prioritized effectively; all must have their ducks in a row!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You may find it difficult to listen to someone who has made the same mistakes you are making, but this makes him someone you can trust! (April 5-April 19) -- You'll receive a boost from someone who, for some time, has been in the shadows supporting your every effort.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You're seeking something that isn't quite ready to reveal itself fully, but you have a suspicion that it's right for you. (May 6-May 20) -- What someone else does isn't likely to affect you directly -- unless you begin to obsess about it!

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- As the week opens, you're likely to get instructions or warnings (or both!) that give you a good idea of what lies ahead. (June 7-June 20) -- Someone in charge may not like the way you are going about your business, but he or she likes the results.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may risk getting off on the wrong foot with someone you may soon come to depend upon; be courteous and considerate! (July 8-July 22) -- You're trying to maximize your opportunities, but in the process you are limiting your choices.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may be feeling as though it's time to move on in some way, but you may simply be overreacting to a temporary setback. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You'll begin the week with strength and confidence. Take care that you don't stumble when trying to do too much at any one time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Problems are illuminated in ways that allow you to weave solutions together and make the best of limited resources. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You're eager to see someone close to you succeed, and there is much you can do to help.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You may realize that the old methods are no longer for you, but you're not yet sure what new methods will serve you best. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- A rift is developing between you and someone who was a trusted partner not long ago. Can you identify the cause?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Originality is the key to a productive week. If you let yourself slip into old patterns of thinking and doing, you'll be shortchanging yourself. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- The quality of time spent alone will make all the difference; don't just sit and stare!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You're rooting for someone close to you even though you can't be there to lend a hand directly. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Something big is waiting for you, but first you must tend to certain small tasks that may take up more time than expected.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You've stored up a great deal of energy -- both physically and mentally -- and this week you'll be ready to apply it to a key endeavor. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You may be stopped in your tracks early in the week, but after careful negotiations, you'll be allowed to continue on your way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You can gather the best from those around you and use it to your advantage -- but you must give credit where credit is due. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- A teacher or mentor is ready to let you fly on your own, but this first solo is not your ultimate goal.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You'll want to continue with something you began last week, but it may take on different dimensions and come to mean something more. (March 6-March 20) -- The week is likely to develop in ways that seem to defy your own desires, but really it is you who are standing in your own way.
