Brief love reading for each of the signs. Be sure to look at your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs for an expanded perspective.

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: It’s natural to have the desire to move up the ladder of success, but at what cost to self and others? Some effort or endeavor requires due diligence, time, and energy that ties to self-improvement, learning, material security, or investing in a relationship. Maybe you’re not at top game, stuck in a rut, or playing it safe in the comfort zone and seeking the easy way out or up. On the other hand, you may be faced with a “golden opportunity” that doesn’t feel authentic to your goals or values or you realize that even as a master you have more to learn. The motivation for decisions may be to seek self-gratification or could be based in petty grievances, but you’re encouraged to closely examine the “I” of the equation in matters where you may be vulnerable to the influence or criticism of others. Remember that your choices not only affect you in the material sense, but also in a spiritual one and will impact future lives. Now is the time to find new ways to apply what you know in a manner that is of service for all.
