TAURUS (21st April - 20th May)
This month will be a tough one to navigate through, tackling each issue as it presents itself will deliver the best results. Healthwise your body is trying to get you to slow down and be more respectful of its needs. Financially this month could get a bit rocky, try to shop smart not necessarily cheap. Communications could get misinterpreted around the 18th, you would do well to be like the wise old owl and listen rather than speak. This month for you is more about what you have learnt over the past two months and putting that to good use rather than making any obvious headway. Its universal test time and the exam has already begun...

GEMINI (21st May - 20th June)
This month may start on a creative and enthusiastic high but you would be well advised to be a little bit more realistic in your projects. Money seems to be flowing out and in at a very quick pace, you would do well to incorporate a little extra research into any thing that requires a juggling of the finances or reliance on the efforts of others. Job prospects are a little shaky for those in new employment but hang in there and just do your best. If you can survive past the obstacles and blocks that you encounter around the 27th, you will be home and hosed.

Be prepared this month as it seems to have no middle ground, its either full steam ahead or you're at a dead stop. Medical issues will raise their head around mid month, keep an eye on blood pressure and early warning signs. Do your best to play it safe in all aspects of your life until the blue moon arrives.

You will not get all you want but perhaps the universe has other, better, plans in store. Clarity will unfortunately not come this month however. Apparently patience is your spirit lesson for August.

LIBRA (23rd September - 22nd October)
This month sees the possible end to a relationship which may have been struggling over the last few months or a redefining of boundaries. Your rebellious streak will be strong but be very careful not to make drastic personal changes on the spur of the moment as you may regret it within a 24 hour period. Finances are strained but not dire. Keep to the budget as best you can. A garage sale may be needed for extra funds before months end, look at it as financial restructuring through decluttering.
