ARIES – If you want changes in your life, you must pay attention to the everyday, ordinary signs and symbols that may offer opportunity or inspiration. The first of the year is a good time to pledge to be mindful and at least keep your eyes open.

TAURUS – How many ways are there to say don’t worry? Don’t worry. It will all work out. It may even work out better than you imagined. Remember worry uses energy that could be used in productive problem solving. I highly recommend the later.

GEMINI – The thing about karma is, it will find you no matter where you try to hide. It is better to go forward boldly than to worry about what someone else will think or do. Or what may happen if you do this or that. Just do the best you can at the moment and let it go.

CANCER – Never give up studying and learning. The more you know, the more successful you will be. Also, learning stimulates the brain. It keeps you more alert and ready to face whatever challenges come along. It is a win/win scenario.

LEO – It takes real inner strength and fortitude to admit when you are wrong. I think we should all do it more often. It might mend a lot of broken relationships. Being right isn’t all that great anyway, especially if you lose someone or something precious.

VIRGO – You don’t always need to be pushing for more. Allow things to mellow out at bit and take some time to enjoy life. It will give you a chance to let the Universe unfold with more prospects. Perhaps even some you have not yet considered.

LIBRA – Everything goes well this month. There is time to work and time to play without major disruptions or difficulties. It should give you some breathing room for reflection or creativity and ease tension and anxiety. Take advantage of this time.

SCORPIO – If you’ve done all you can, there’s nothing more to do. Sometimes we beat ourselves up trying to come up with solutions when there just are none left. I suppose that is guilt. Like worry, it is a useless emotion that serves no purpose but to rob us of peace of mind.

 SAGITTARIUS – If you don’t feel quite confident about something, there are two excellent sources of assistance. The first is to consult an expert and the second is to listen to what your instincts are telling you. Confidence is not about a lack of fear. It is when you have fear and do it anyway.

CAPRICORN – Sometimes we stay really busy in order to not have to deal with things we don’t want to address. It is another way of hiding. Free yourself by dealing and letting go. You have the strength to take it on.

AQUARIUS – Let the past stay where it belongs. In the past. Dwelling too much on it will rob you of the present and subsequently the future. The past you lived then. You live now. Make now the best time.

PISCES –This is a fantastic month for relationships. A new or renewed sense of belonging and commitment is possible. The key for you is to give without expectation and really mean it. The rewards will come.
