   heres the scoop!
Aries (March 21 - April 19)

You feel rather withdrawn today, making this a great day for a family cookout, a quiet day of chores around the home or some other kind of retreat. But circumstances will probably dictate a very different flow of events, leaving you somewhat disconnected from what you are doing. If you can tackle your work chores with sharp focus, you can finish them and still have personal time later in the day.



Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Your frustration lingers, maybe even intensifies, as your boss requires you to do one thing but you think your efforts would be more productive elsewhere. Or, if you are the authority figure, you may run into a passive resistance from a worker or children. Nothing will be gained by direct confrontation now. Let the tension transform without intervention.



Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

Life seems a bit less frantic now, even if it is a back-to-work day. Maybe the opportunity to take the focus off your own personal stuff and place it onto your work is what makes things easier. Or maybe it's just that you had a pretty intense weekend and the energies are naturally settling back down to normal. Keep in mind, however, that you may not be seeing things as clearly. For the next few days, be careful of your tendency to fool yourself.



Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

Home is where the heart is, and today you can carry your heart proudly wherever you go. You've processed a lot of emotional transitions over the past couple of years. Take time, even in your busy Monday schedule, to review your recent changes and then tentatively imagine your way into the future.



Leo (July 23 - August 22)

You might sink into a bit of an emotional funk today as you dream about whatever it is that you don't and cannot have. You may even blame yourself for your present condition. Self-directed hate or guilt is totally non-productive now. Just look at the facts, assess your feelings and make whatever corrections you can in the present moment.



Virgo (August 23 - September 22)

You've been all over the emotional map and today the terrain changes once again -- from excitement to frustration and now to confusion. You can remove the pressure by realizing that logic isn't the way out of this one. You are being called into the feeling dimensions, where rational thought isn't very important. No decisions or explanations are needed.



Libra (September 23 - October 22)

You must attend to chores now, whether at work, in the family or out in the community. But you'd rather be at home. Perhaps you're feeling as if the weekend ended too soon. Or maybe you are lucky enough to have delayed going back to work. Either way, acknowledge that summer is passing you buy so get out and enjoy it.



Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)

If you aren't taking a vacation now, you probably are dreaming about it. But this isn't just about escaping on a great adventure. Instead, you might be just as content having time at home, without the responsibilities that usually go along with that. With the Moon in Cancer, there is also the component of wanting to share this time with family, close friends or a lover. Go ahead and schedule some time off -- with or without anyone else


Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)

Serious dilemmas and heightened frustration have softened into a low-level, mild discomfort. You know you must be doing exactly what is required of you now, but you also feel a need to withdraw, emotionally and perhaps even physically. Act like a mature and responsible adult; meet your obligations, even if there is an emotional cost.



Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)

People in your environment may act more irrational now than you wish. You can get annoyed when others inappropriately bring their emotions into professional work situations. You cannot just ignore what's going on. Everyone expresses themselves differently; be open to the feelings being shared, even if it's not your preferred style of communication.



Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

Irrational mood swings push and pull you into uncomfortable situations today, for you prefer the cool detached intellectual engagements to the over-emotional ones. Move past your inner resistance, for it is your fear that makes these touchy-feely interactions more complicated.



Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

The refreshing waters of your imagination are overflowing, making it difficult for you to negotiate moving through the real world. Everything feels a bit more magical today, as if you are in touch with a greater force of nature than just the mechanics of your daily life. Perhaps you are more spiritually inclined now, or maybe you are simply lost in your daydreams. Either way, it's still necessary to pay attention to reality.
