Aries
March 21 to April 20
For three brief months, the heavens’ cosmic life coach, Chiron, has been asking you to work on your sense of personal worth and value. Today he retrogrades into your sign and through to the middle of April next year, and the life lesson he is setting for you is to ensure you have a healthy sense of self. Now, that’s not to say you don’t, but in this last visit, do double-check.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
As healer Chiron returns to your sector of reflection, he re-joins the stoic Saturn and the nebulous Neptune. This can boost your interest in personal development courses, retreats, holistic medicine, mindfulness or yoga, and will continue through December. Then again, treating yourself to some spa days or fabulous pampering sessions can also call out to you.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
The old assumption was that astrology was fortune-telling; the reality is that it’s what we do that makes the real difference to our personal fate. That said, what this ancient craft helps us do is time our moves, and that comes from a deeper knowledge of all the moves the planets are making. From now through the year’s end, expect to actively review your future.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
Is your life role all you want it to be? Whether personally or professionally, you are entering a very powerful time, one where openness to new insights and to the knowledge of other experienced people can prove invaluable. Just don’t underestimate the guidance and help you can provide others with. A new role which provides leadership awaits you, if you want it.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
How do you view your knowledge? If you’re a lifetime learner, your passion for the next course or subject may be undimmed, but what drives you on? Then again, if you never had the opportunity to gain qualifications, what’s your relationship with this gap in your journey? Either way, how you see your value in terms of what you know now comes into focus.

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
Your talent for analysis is the stuff of astral lore, and today you can apply this to a penetrating take on all things financial. Chances are, little will miss your gaze, but it’s also important not just to glean the energy but to gain context from it. This is particularly true of shared, long-term, or business resources. So, don’t just crunch the numbers; also see the big picture.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Since early in 2019, Chiron, the so-called wounded healer, has travelled through your sector of partnerships, that is until, three short months ago, when he dived deep in Taurus. Now back in your opposite sign, along with the retrograde shrewd Saturn, and mysterious Neptune, significant relationships will feature strongly ’till December this year.

Saturn has been asking Scorpios to take disciplined routines, dietary and exercise strands more seriously since mid-February. How are you doing? If that inner militant has been reluctant to get on the program, you get a hefty shove to do so from today, as Chiron returns to your sector of virtue. You can make this work for you – give it a try.
Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
Enjoyment and self-discipline are not mutually exclusive. Going to a fitness class and dancing hard can be fun and help us to feel healthier, even if it takes some effort. Consider how you can combine these two areas now, Sagittarius, for a blend of pleasure and industry could bring a new interest, hobby or pastime into your life and give you a lift.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
The conversational Mercury goes face to face with your ruler, the zodiac’s Steady Eddie Saturn. This could see you feel a little more reserved or reluctant to open up than usual. Speaking of which, with the powerful Chiron returning to join Saturn in your feelings zone for the next six months, if there is a tender strand that still leaves you raw, look to work on it.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Being an air sign, you have a particular appreciation for ideas and for interacting with others. Today you can deliver your pearls of wisdom and witty repartees with an extra slice of brevity. People will know that when you say no, you mean it, but also if you have an idea you’re serious about, say it with clarity. The last part of this year can also see more of this.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
We can gauge our value by what we own or earn, and for many of us, that is incredibly important. Fair dos, financial security is a great foundation to feel good. But it’s not the only one. Today you might have a slight disagreement over what you value and what someone else values, but it probably won’t come down to money as much as to the differing principles you have.
