Fantasies about your love life, money and possessions may bubble to the surface this week, tempting you to act on your visions. This is the week to go for it.

Welcome back to our weekly astrology series led by Hong Kong-based Western astrologer, De Rui.

This week begins with opportunities to see things in a brand new light. As the workweek begins, you might feel the influence of Saturn, bringing a feeling of hopelessness as you try to push past work-related obstacles. By Friday, however, things may begin to look up as a creative aspect to Mars could bring positive surprises.

Keep cards close to your chest

Star signs impacted the most: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn have their antennae up 

The beginning of the week is an opening for penetrating insight. Looking under the hood and asking follow-up questions can allow you to see things in a whole new light. Just don’t try to share your thoughts with the whole world right now––others might not be ready to hear the truth. Keep some cards close to your chest, or you could end up with a foot-in-mouth encounter.

Double down on your efforts

Star signs impacted the most: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio should put their nose to the grindstone  

At the office or with any projects we are working on, Saturn’s influence is challenging us to push past any obstacles and stay on track. Feelings of hopelessness or futility coming up are to be expected. Rather than give up, now is the time to double down on your effort. By Friday, a creative aspect to Mars can bring positive surprises. 

Indulge in your visions and fantasies

Star signs impacted the most: Virgo can make the most of this energy 

Visions and fantasies about our love life, money, and possessions may take on increasing intensity. By the weekend, we can really be feeling the urge to splurge or to throw moderation by the wayside. Go for it. Venus travelling through its home sign of Taurus also means there is no better time to indulge in rich, sensual experiences.
