Even when you‘re working so hard, you feel like you‘re doing the work that will leave a legacy behind, someone has to naysay you. You might be feeling relaxed, cherished, loved and your personal life seems to have survived another narrow escape, but then you have to return to work. You have to do the things other people don‘t want to do, and while you may be walking in there with a grin on your face and motivation in your every step, someone is going to give you a wakeup call, and it‘s probably going to be a harsh lesson learned. You sometimes need to recognize when you are actually failing something and when something simply isn‘t worth it anymore. People ruining your good mood and tearing down your motivation? Those people need to vacate your life immediately, you don‘t have room for the negativity. You work so hard on believing in yourself, and it‘s amazing to see how easily someone will attempt to cut you down for who you are, and also amazing is how some people don‘t see your potential right off the bat. You‘re a loyal, hardworking, highly skilled individual and you deserve to be treated as part of a team, an equal. Forget this concept of managers and staff, everyone needs to work together. The moon begins the week in Leo and you‘re feeling inspired, and ready to take on the world. If only the world were a happier place. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday and this urges you to get your professional life in order. Do what you have to do. The Moon moves to Virgo and Mars moves to Capricorn on Tuesday, so that team work, work ethic thing is going to come into play big time. We have a new moon moving through Virgo to Libra on Friday giving you some room to brainstorm new ideas and to listen to everyone on the team. The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday, and you‘ll be feeling pretty philosophical.Ascendant: You really don‘t need the hassles.

You know you don‘t want all these complications coming into your life so why are you allowing those things in? You know better, you‘re far smarter than you give yourself credit for, and you also know when you have options how to figure out which ones are the best ones for you to follow and which ones need to be given the heave ho. I guess there‘s something to be said about consistency and not being a butterfly or a bee moving from flower to flower, in this case, job to job or department to department. You want to for once in your life, stick to the thing you‘re doing because you feel a sense of identity with it, even if that identity is administrator, or teacher, or sanitation specialist, you feel like this is someone that resonates with you and you don‘t want to give that up. You spend so much time being a jack of all trades that you don‘t know who you really are. Are you Gemini the Jump Rope Champion or Gemini the Jackhammer Operator? Some days you don‘t know who you are and that can really mess up where you end up in life because being open to so many possibilities means you don‘t pigeonhole yourself, but it also means you don‘t define yourself. And if you don‘t know who you are this lends itself to an existential crisis. You don‘t want to have one of those do you? The Moon begins the week in Leo motivating you to stick to your strengths. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday and urges you not to quit the job, but to stick it through. The Moon moves to Virgo and Mars moves to Capricorn on Tuesday and you have this fervent need to stop being Jack and to start being a Master.

So what you‘ve learned this week is that too much of a good thing can become a bad thing--even orgasms, but I‘ll let you figure that one out on your own. You‘re back to work, maybe? It really depends on if what you did last week was effective and actual genius or if it was just hilarious stupidity, and you can never be too sure if what you do will pay off or if it‘s better to put yourself back in the box, put your head down and do the work you were asked to do. I guess this is why, unless you‘re a business owner, you don‘t begin going in all directions. You know you‘re sometimes unconventional, but if you had a retail store and you did something like this, you know there‘d be consequences, since you have to think about all the bills to pay and the customers coming in. If you stop stocking what they want in favor of becoming a balloon dealer instead of a fabrics shop, well people are probably not going to make the shift and start buying balloons from you. It‘s very likely they‘ll go elsewhere and all that marketing you did to prove you were the best fabrics shop around has to be redone to prove you‘re the best balloon dealer. Sometimes it‘s easier if you stick to what you know, instead of being so open minded your brain falls out. The Moon begins the week in Leo and there‘s anger underneath that guilt and shame. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday begging you to be pragmatic and pay attention to your career. You want this to last a long time, don‘t rock the boat. The Moon moves to Virgo and Mars moves to Capricorn on Tuesday and they collectively make work boring, but profitable, so you‘ll forgive them. We have a new moon moving through Virgo to Libra on Friday further grounding and reminding you there‘s a time and place for ideas. The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday, and you‘ll be wallowing in self-loathing.Ascendant: You just wanted to try one thing, you didn‘t think it would backfire.

What you need to focus on the most this week is what you‘re good at. It might take some brainstorming but even if you‘re good at licking your elbow you need to realize that. It‘s going to help you so much to be able to identify your strengths and come to grips with the niche set of skills you have. This week is about positively putting you back together so you can feel confident, humble and capable of achieving your goals. You‘ll find that everyone at work is ready to shove off whatever happened, since people are usually very good at letting you have your moment if that‘s what you want. You don‘t have to apologize to everyone as long as you can jump back into the cog on the clock and pull your weight to make everything fall into place. Doing the job to the best of your ability is going to be the thing that will solve all the problems in your life right now. The Moon begins the week in Leo as the Pluto retrograde ends, putting focus on your work ethic and career potential. You‘ve got some career maintenance to do this week.

The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday and you‘ll be feeling hyper critical.Ascendant: You can get right back into the swing of things.

Sometimes you‘re not the best when it comes to waiting for things and you know they say, good things come to those to wait. So that‘s going to make for an interesting week because energies are slowing down here, and people want to think more about what they‘re doing instead of making all these shots in the dark, and you don‘t like the methodical, let‘s discuss this until we‘re all blue in the face method of most company movements. If it could have been done yesterday that would have sufficed too but you‘re so full of positive, go-getter energy that you can‘t wait for the good thing to come in time, it has to be here now, and if it‘s not here now you have to make it happen. You need to think about things like contracts and protecting the company, and all those legal and financial aspects of making big changes in any company. You might want to go for it but did you read the fine print? Going for it might mean losing it all if you‘re not careful about what you‘re signing. The Moon begins the week in Leo and you feel invincible. Nobody would dream pulling a fast one on you! The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday making everyone shift focus to their professional success. That means that yes they will screw you over if they can, and you shouldn‘t be surprised if they try. The Moon moves to Virgo and Mars moves to Capricorn on Tuesday, and this is great because it gives you that scrutinizing eye to see all the potential pitfalls before you foolishly fall for them. We have a new moon moving through Virgo to Libra on Friday helping you balance the check book and sign the right paperwork. The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday and you‘re going to be reviewing all those details making sure you didn‘t mess something up.Ascendant: Trust me, unless you rushed it, you didn‘t ruin it.

You need to get back in that boxing ring and show the world whose boss. None of this letting people think what they want to think of you. None of this walking or running away and crying in the corner and thinking you‘re not worthy. You know how to pull a Jack Sparrow better than anyone else, and even when the chips seem down you know how to get back up and stand even when that‘s sometimes the hardest thing to do. You need to pull your focus back and see that there‘s a lot of positive things happening around you, and all you need to do is let it soak in. The biggest challenge you‘re having this week is deciding which of the good things you need to turn away for the time being. I mean it‘s great if you can juggle that many projects, but when you spread yourself too thin, everything suffers. The more focused you can be on completing one thing at a time, or dedicating yourself to the thing that resonates with you the most, is the way you‘ll reach success. Don‘t mess around with the things that aren‘t giving back to your soul, those are the things you need to spend less time on, and give yourself a break. You don‘t need to have a bazillion job titles you just need one good one and that‘s it. The Moon begins the week in Leo motivating you to say what you want and not take no for an answer. Good news is that you actually know what you want this time. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday and you‘re going to clean up things on the work front.

We have a new moon moving through Virgo to Libra on Friday reminding you to ground and balance yourself. The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday and you‘ll want to be self-critical but you can‘t let yourself do that. Ascendant: Don‘t spread yourself too thin.

You have heard all those same excuses before and guess what? They don‘t work on you anymore, it‘s like this song and dance has been played too many times on the radio and the words have lost their meaning. Oh, so your boss really wants you to do that thing you told them you would never do again in a million years? Is that so? Your newest coworker is amazingly skilled and they‘re going to turn the company around? Is that so? Your partner wants to go on a romantic weekend in Tahiti with you? Is that so? You might just be the most skeptical and cynical person on the planet this week, but you also have some good reasons for it. Even with your eyes closed you smell drama and corruption from a mile away, you know something is up, you know it‘s about to be pinned on you and you know the consequences this time are going to be dire and that you might not make it out with the shirt on your back. And if that‘s the case, instead of putting up those fists and getting ready for the repeated blows, it might be time to hang up those gloves and tell everyone you‘re retiring because the industry and the business is just too backwards for you to deal with, and you don‘t want to be put in situations where you feel very little control or comfort. The Moon begins the week in Leo and you‘re self-actualizing like it‘s nobody‘s business. You‘re going to tell everyone where your hard limits are.

The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday and you feel the need to sleep.Ascendant: Sometimes you have to smoke them out.

When you get too overwhelmed with life, it‘s okay for you to take a step back and reassess. You‘re starting the week with some confidence, feeling a lot more comfortable in your role at work, and stepping back from being the person who‘s running the show, or subsequently doing far more work than everyone else, and instead shifting back to that observer role. You‘ve turned down bigger positions in the past because even though you know you can do something more, you also like your comfort zone of being part of a team, working towards common goals, and you‘re not a glory hound so the whole fancy titles and cool business cards thing doesn‘t even get you excited at all. I mean if it‘s functional and you have to have some job title on your business card fine, but otherwise you‘re pretty content with being part of the team that makes up the whole and definitely not the person in charge. I think the best news is that when you want to take a step back, there‘s always someone with an attitude or an ego that wants to take control and you‘re completely fine with this. More power to them. The Moon begins the week in Leo and you‘re comfortable in your own space. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday as well which helps you clean up the mess you made at work.

If there was one thing you didn‘t expect to happen this week, it was being given all the keys to the kingdom and being told have fun, all the power is now in your hands. It‘s like some wizard showed up and said, "Dear Capricorn! You are the chosen one, take this magical stone and find Penthrix in the darkened forest. It has been prophesied that you will defeat Queen Arborne and her army of evil leprechauns. Haste you must for this is your day!" And you‘re thinking, wow, that‘s one heck of a call to action, I don‘t know if I‘m up for a Hero‘s Journey this week, but thanks for the opportunity. Here, I‘m going to just give you back this stone, maybe . . . maybe someone else can defeat the . . .. And then in fine fashion this wizard disappears on you, leaves you in charge of everything and you‘re forced to go on the journey whether you want to or not, and of course this Penthrix who‘s supposed to help you turns out to be as loony as Radagast (The Hobbit) and you wonder if you‘re going to be successful in this particular challenge or if you‘re going to lose all your marbles trying to keep up with the demands. The Moon begins the week in Leo so of course you‘re feeling motivated. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday forcing you to get your professional life in order.

The best thing about rock bottom is that there‘s only one way you can go from there--up. Hitting rock bottom isn‘t as bad as you might think it is, it allows you this sense of nothingness, a sense of openness and need to empty out all the toxicity in your life so you can usher in new ideas and better people and new projects that make you feel more alive than you‘ve been in a long time. You need to do an out with the old in with the new thing this week, let go of the bellowing self-piteous feelings you‘ve had towards yourself, start to approach everything with a positive attitude and stop giving advice to people who don‘t appreciate it. What you‘re going to notice is that people who didn‘t care about you to begin with, won‘t contact you. They‘ll leave you alone because they didn‘t care if you were in their life to begin with. What you‘ll also see is people you didn‘t expect, helping you, caring about the things you go through, wanting to know how they can be more effective for you. And that‘s what you need right now, people who are going to help you, instead of people who are going to take everything from you. The Moon begins the week in Leo, allowing you the motivation to let people go if they‘re not helping you. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday urging you to get back to work and don‘t let yourself wander.

The Moon moves to Scorpio on Sunday and you feel emotional and nostalgic but that will pass.Ascendant: Sometimes the key to life is collaboration.

You know you‘re not going to have even the smallest peep of trouble at work this week. You know that customers will love you, coworkers will fear you, and bosses will respect you because if they don‘t, they got something else coming to them. You‘re holding that head up high, getting into the nitty gritty of what you do best, and not giving a damn what anyone thinks of your methods, your effectiveness, or your attitude. You‘re like Patti Labelle this week, feeling good from your head to your shoes, and you know what you‘re doing! Nobody can ruin this good mood you‘ve got yourself in, it‘ll be like walking on sunshine. Some of you are feeling a bit more introverted than usual, that need to put a sign up somewhere so people know not to bother you might come into play, but you really only do that during desperate times and with Jupiter in Libra now, you know that focusing solely on the work isn‘t a thing anymore. You have to actually collaborate and work with people and you can‘t do that if you‘re constantly shutting people out. So the weird thing is, even though some people think you don‘t have any people skills, you actually have them in spades and you‘re using them and proving to everyone how versatile and adaptable you really are. You give the best of the best a run for their money. The Moon begins the week in Leo and nothing is going to break your stride, nothing is going to hold you back. The Pluto retrograde ends on Monday which allows you to focus more on work than your personal life. The Moon moves to Virgo and Mars moves to Capricorn on Tuesday, which are these great, deep anchors that keep you rooted and focused.
