TOKYO GINZA Astrology

This month, the places you fill with things you love draw people and pleasure into your life. The first half favors making more of your home and the places where you feel you belong; the second turns toward romance and creativity. The Sun and New Moon in Libra illuminate the 4th house, while Mars and Jupiter in Leo energize the abilities you already have. A space you love, a particular talent, a romance you would like to enjoy again: things you have cherished can find fresh expression in a way that suits who you are now.

In September, a conversation you start can lead to concrete plans or work. The Sun in Virgo and the New Moon around the 11th occupy the 3rd house of communication and learning. With the drive of Mars moving through Cancer, you have the energy to go beyond explaining an idea and demonstrate it yourself. What you have learned firsthand makes good material for presentations and messages. In the second half, the focus shifts to home and the places where you base your activities, while around the 26th you may see how your work is being received. Someone who watched your demonstration or read what you wrote may come back with a request for your work. You can turn everyday experience into words that get work underway.

August brings a clearer sense of the kind of richness you want your skills and experience to make possible. Around the 12th, a New Moon with a solar eclipse in Leo in the 2nd house opens up fresh choices about income and possessions. What you do to earn is part of the conversation; so are the experiences you want that money to bring you more often. Later in the month, the Full Moon in Pisces illuminates travel and learning, bringing something you have long wanted closer to a concrete plan. Work built on the experience you have gained, and the journey you hoped those skills would let you enjoy: both begin to feel more real within the same month.

This is a month to say what you want to do in words that reflect who you are now. Around the 14th, the New Moon in Cancer opens a new door in your activities and the way you present yourself. At the start of the month, you may suddenly want to try an idea you have yet to show anyone. A private flash of inspiration becomes the pleasure of making something with your own hands. In the second half, the Sun and Jupiter come together to highlight your skills and income, and you may feel eager to make more use of your abilities. As plans with someone else become more concrete, you also grow clearer about how you want to put your own values into practice. In July, people can see the warmth of your own intentions, beyond your willingness to meet their expectations.

Invitations and kind words from other people can show you what makes you appealing now. With Venus and Jupiter meeting in Cancer around the 9th, people are likely to remember the way you openly enjoy what you love. Meanwhile, the Sun and New Moon in the first half of the month illuminate your private preparations. Between lively encounters, there is pleasure in trying out an idea before showing it to anyone. What you have been developing privately may become words and actions in the second half. From the end of the month, the emphasis shifts toward using your skills and taste to enrich your income and everyday life. The question is less what you have than what you would enjoy putting to use.

In May, people are drawn to the person they saw through your work in April. The Sun in Taurus in the 11th house and the New Moon there around the 16th illuminate friendships and plans for the future. A conversation about a favorite restaurant could become an event; talk of a hobby could lead to something you do together. You may find yourself wanting to put a real date in the calendar for an idea that came up over dinner. Jupiter in Cancer also sets the scene for you to discover more to enjoy. In the first half, you receive responses to things you have kept doing for love of them; by midmonth, you are welcoming people in. Later, even the time before you show anyone your next idea becomes interesting. This month lets people see you enjoying yourself alongside them, as well as working hard.

This is a month when your own name comes to the fore at work. Planets gather in Aries in the 10th house, asking what you will decide and how you will bring the work to completion. Jupiter in Cancer provides a backdrop of encouragement to try a role you have never held before. Even a busy schedule may feel fulfilling when you want to see the work happen yourself, beyond simply doing your best because someone asked. Early in the month, questions about home and time with those close to you find answers; midmonth brings your professional direction into view. In the second half, more people take an interest in what you are doing. As well as recognition from the wider world, there may be moments of pride you cannot wait to tell someone about when you get home.
