This is a month to let people see what you want to do. The Sun and New Moon in Libra put the focus on you. When you express your own intentions, rather than giving someone the answer they want to hear, you are likely to get a response and see conversations move forward. Mars and Jupiter in the 11th house bring energy to friendships, collaborations and plans for the future. In October, a fresh step you take as an individual can lead to the much bigger pleasure of making something happen together.

The first half of the month offers the satisfaction of exploring interests you have been trying out on your own. The Sun in Virgo and the New Moon around the 11th occupy the 12th house, the place of private activities and ideas still taking shape before you show them to anyone. Even without an immediate connection to work, there is pleasure in going to see something, making it yourself or talking to someone who knows the subject well. When the Sun returns to Libra in the second half, the tastes you have discovered begin to show in your expression. The Full Moon around the 26th brings answers in one-to-one relationships. You are good at bringing out other people’s appeal; this September, you can be the one to reveal what interests you.

August brings a clearer sense of who you want to spend time with and what you want to do together. The New Moon with a solar eclipse in Leo around the 12th falls in the 11th house of friends and shared plans. You may want to bring an interesting idea of your own, as well as joining events someone else has arranged. Venus shines a light on you and adds charm to your conversations. When you talk about what you are looking forward to, instead of only making sure everyone else is happy, you are likely to find people who share your enthusiasm. In the second half of the month, reviewing how you handle everyday work can show how much time and energy you have for your next activity.

Stories from far away and new knowledge open up possibilities where you are now. Early in the month, Mars and Uranus meet in the area of travel and specialist learning. An unexpected invitation may introduce you to an unfamiliar world and make you want to take part yourself. The midmonth New Moon illuminates work and public activities, helping you see more clearly which role would let you put that experience to use. In the second half, the Sun and Jupiter meet in the area of friendships, bringing a sense of occasion to plans you can enjoy with others. This is a month to consider who could make an experience you enjoyed on your own even more rewarding. There is room for your personal taste in what brings everyone pleasure.

A place you want to visit or a subject you want to understand more deeply moves closer to becoming an actual plan. In June, the Sun in the 9th house and the New Moon around the 15th illuminate travel and specialist learning. The pleasure of discovering a different world can inspire you, alongside the satisfaction of doing your current work well. Around the 9th, you may also have a chance to show your appeal in public. An introduction or a request could reveal a new setting in which to use your experience. From the end of the month, activities begin to grow with people who are excited by the same possibilities for the future. There is more pleasure to come in sharing what you have discovered.

May is a month to develop the commitments you made in April into deeper trust. The Sun in Taurus in the 8th house, along with the New Moon around the 16th, offers an opening to learn more about someone’s skills and circumstances and share what you can each do. There may be the pleasure of finding that the part you entrusted to them is better than you imagined, or of talking about a personal wish and arriving at a new idea together. Your own strengths and tastes become clearer in the first half of the month; in the second, travel and learning bring fresh stimulation. An introduction from someone you trust could tempt you into an experience you would never have chosen alone. Growing closer to someone expands your own opportunities for enjoyment this month.

April brings both your own wishes and the other person’s thinking into clearer focus. The Full Moon in Libra around the 2nd may help you understand what you want next, once you have heard how others respond to you. Midmonth, planets gather in Aries in the 7th house, bringing a question into focus in both work and love: who do you want to team up with, and what do you want to begin? Someone may offer more than pleasant conversation: you may actually want to do something together. That is part of this month’s appeal. In the second half, your shared plans deepen and your attention turns toward unfamiliar worlds. Even if you have often accommodated others, you may find more wishes of your own that you feel free to express.
