On the 19th, as the Sun crosses your midheaven, you enter a yearly career peak. So there is career progress and success happening now. Your ambitions are very strong. You have high goals and you will make good progress towards their attainment. After the 21st, Mercury, your ruling planet, crosses the midheaven – another indicator of success and high attainment. You are on top, in charge, above everyone in your world, honoured, appreciated, lordly. Family members also seem successful, and they even seem supportive of your career goals. There is no real conflict between family and career these days (as is so often the case) – you and the family are on the same page. On the 23rd Mars enters your 10th house; this indicates that you are working hard and that the pace of work is frenetic. You or your company are fighting off competition aggressively. It also shows that you have friends in high places – allies – who are helping your career.
Finance has not been a big issue these past two months. In general, though, you will earn more and have more enthusiasm for finance from the 3rd to the 18th as the Moon waxes than at other times.
Love seems happy. Many of the love trends of last month are still in effect. You jump into relationships very quickly. You are quick to fall in love. Your challenge is not falling in love; it is maintaining the intensity and ardour over time. Love opportunities come as you get involved with groups, group activities and organizations. Friends are playing cupid. And often, someone whom you consider to be just a friend turns out to be more than that.
Last year you were allured by power and authority. This year (until June 4) you are interested in someone who can be both a romantic partner and a friend.
Health needs more watching after the 19th, but this is just a short-term stressor. As always, rest and relax more, pace yourself, and work to maintain high energy levels. Continue to enhance your health in the ways described in the yearly report.

The planetary momentum has been overwhelmingly forward all year so far and this trend continues this month. Until the 30th, 90 per cent of the planets are forward. On the 30th, Mercury (your ruling planet) starts to retrograde.
This forward momentum shows that you are making rapid progress towards your goals. World events – and the events in your life – move at a faster pace.
Mercury retrogrades three times a year, so you have been through this many times in your life. You go through it three times a year. There is nothing to fear. It is merely a time when you should be reviewing your body, image, self-concept, personal appearance and family issues with a view to upgrading or improving them. All the various glitches that arise when Mercury is retrograde are merely the cosmos’ way of nudging you towards these activities.
For you personally, the retrograde of Mercury is a call to personal perfection. Avoid the short-cuts. What seems like a short-cut can actually be the long way round. Be perfectionist and meticulous in all that you do – though it seems to slow you down – and you will go through this with flying colours.
Your 10th house of career is still very powerful until the 20th. By the end of the month, career goals should have been attained (or satisfactory progress made) and you are ready to focus on other things. The new Moon of the 4th occurs in your 10th house and will clarify, as the month progresses, your career status and issues involving the career.
Friendships have been important since January 22. This month they become even more important – 40 to 50 per cent of the planets are either in or moving through your 11th house. You are meeting new and important friends. Your social sphere is expanding – and in a significant way. But how long this will last is another story, as Uranus moves into this house on the 12th. This will bring dramatic change
– re-alignments – of current friendships – now and for years to come. Some of these re-alignments are not your fault – they come from personal changes and dramatic experiences that happen in the lives of friends. But many friendships will get tested now, and not all will survive.
There is a very happy romantic meeting from the 14th to the 16th. You seem the pursuer and you catch what you pursue. Love is still at groups, group activities and organizations. Online love also seems interesting.
Health still needs watching until the 20th.
There can be job changes this month, but with your career so strong, it seems like a good thing. Those who employ others can see employee turnover now.
The 11th house is the house of fondest hopes and wishes. Thus this is a month where you attain these things – in love, with the family and family members, and in your studies.

Until the 10th your horoscope resembles a ‘bucket’, with Saturn as the handle. This makes Saturn very prominent in your horoscope during this period. As lord of the 8th house, this indicates that the earnings of your spouse or partner or investors lift up your life. Your ability to borrow, to access outside money, is the handle that lifts up your life.
Last month the planetary power shifted from the western, social sector to the eastern sector. You are entering a period of greater personal independence – developing personal skills and personal initiative. Up until now success depended on whom you knew; now it’s about who you are and what you can do. Other people are always important, but less so these days. Look at your conditions of life and boldly create them as you desire them to be. The cosmos will back you up.
Your 11th house of friends is still very powerful, and so you are very active here. Be more patient with friends from the 5th to the 15th. Avoid conflicts and confrontations. Friends in turn also need to be this way. And they should be more mindful when driving. They should be avoiding risky activities during this period.
Finances are basically status quo. But they should be better and stronger from the 3rd to the 18th than at other times – the period when the Moon waxes.
Your spouse or partner is focused on finance, but there are challenges and difficulties during this period. Your partner needs to be reviewing his or her financial life in a sober way. This is not the time to make dramatic financial changes.
Neptune, the most spiritual of all the planets, moves into your 10th house of career on the 5th. This brings idealism to the career – a need to have a career that is truly and actually meaningful. It initiates a period where you think beyond mere success, to your spiritual mission in life. Psychics, astrologers, ministers and spiritual channels can be very helpful these days.
