Best day: 14 Wednesday · 15 Thursday · 16 Friday

Day to go easy on: 12 Monday · 13 Tuesday · 19 Monday …

Each point is the day's mark, the same as on the daily page: most of the ups and downs come from the Moon, which changes sign every two days.

What holds all month

These planets don't change sign for the whole period: Mercury in Scorpio, Mars in Leo, Jupiter in Leo, Saturn in Aries.

You

Saturn is at a good angle to your sign. Confidence builds quietly, on what you do each week. Pick up one habit, just one.

  • Saturn · trine
  • in the background, for months

Love

In this area, no planet stays put for the whole period. It all comes down to the day: look at the curve.

Work

Saturn carries your sign, for months. Methodical, steady work pays off. Make a plan before you start, then stick to it.

  • Saturn · trine
  • in the background, for months

Mercury is at a difficult angle to your sign. Messages cross, and what's read fast gets read wrong. Take thirty extra seconds per message.

  • Mercury · square

Energy

Mars is in your sign. You've got drive to spare, but your temper flares fast. Walk for fifteen minutes before answering what annoys you.

  • Mars · conjunction

Others

Jupiter is in your sign, for a year. People come to you more easily, and you think big. Say yes more often than usual.

  • Jupiter · conjunction
  • in the background, for months

Mercury rubs against your sign these weeks. People talk without hearing each other, and one wrong word takes over. Rephrase instead of repeating louder.

  • Mercury · square

What about you?

This page applies to everyone who shares this sign. Your own sky today, calculated from your whole chart (your Moon, your Ascendant, your houses), is more accurate.

How it's scored

Each day gets its mark the same way as on the daily page, at noon, London time. “What holds all month” means the planets that stay in the same sign from the first day to the last: they get a single mark, mid-month, worked out the same way as each day, but without the Moon. The Sun changes sign around the 20th, so it never holds all month, and its change of sign appears in the dates to remember.

No single number here sums up the period: an average would flatten the highs and lows, and they're the useful part.

A sign is a twelfth of humanity: this score holds for everyone who shares it. Your own daily sky, calculated on your whole chart, is more accurate.
