TAURUS (April 20 - May 20)
This month is your birthday month. Don't forget to thank your mother and father for giving you this rebirth. Even if they were not there for you all the time, they still gave you an opportunity to work out your bad karma and accumulate good karma. For the first two weeks your mind and communication skills are strong. The Sun and Mercury are well aspected. The second two weeks require more mindfulness as Neptune squares your Sun. Be careful of illusions or fears you project onto those around you.

Taurus Buddhists love to be grounded and practical. This month show your positive qualities and share your positive ideas. Don't worry if people accept them or not, just speak in a clear and confident mind.

GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
This month your passions are strong in the first ten days. Basically the month starts with Venus, Mars and Uranus square to each other. That means desires for pleasure are strong and impulsive. If you have Bodhicitta you can work with these feelings constructively. The ability to work with your feelings helps you work with others' feelings too. If the thought of working with desire is uncomfortable then offer prayers that you can do so in the future. There is always a way to be positive.

Gemini Buddhists are quick on their intellectual feet. This month feelings and desires run strong and so your mind has to work effectively with an element where the intellect normally does not go. Be intelligent but also be aware that feelings are sometimes stronger than your intellect.

CANCER (June 21 - July 22)
This month is wonderful. Uranus and Mars both work in energetic and harmonious aspects to Venus. You are having fun and are playful. The first ten days you may be prone to indulge, but by mid-month you shift over to being fun-loving. Granted, you need a bodhisattva's attitude to utilize these aspects in the best way. Planets are merely an environmental influence; you still need to be motivated in a positive manner, especially with this type of intoxicating energy.

Cancer Buddhists normally work with feelings. This month you could be a powerhouse of benefit. The power is love and affection for others. You have lots of those feelings. Just motivate correctly and everything will be fine.

LEO (July 23 - August 22)
This month is excellent for meditation. Saturn is well-aspected in your sign with Jupiter and Neptune. Saturn works beneficially with meditation as that cultivates thoughtfulness. Saturn responds well with Buddhist meditations and this helps ground Neptune's visions and dreams. Jupiter is also well aspected to both Saturn and Neptune so all in all it is a great time to meditate and organize your thoughts and dreams. Focus on your Bodhicitta motive and you will develop many positive qualities.

Leo Buddhists like to be motivators. This month organize the vision or idealism of your life. What legacy would you like to leave to the world? Be a true bodhisattva and offer benefit and bliss to all. That is an excellent legacy that brings happiness to everyone.

VIRGO (August 23 - September 22)
This month has Mars, Uranus and Venus all aspected to your Sun sign. You are slightly prone to be agitated, though, as Uranus and Mars are opposite Virgo. What helps you deal with that energy is the beneficial aspect with Venus. The world is a dynamic place and you have positive dynamics, so do something constructive with your love and compassion this month.

Virgo Buddhists do things in an orderly manner. This month your energy is released and free. Be mindful to not be so courageous that you hurt yourself or shock others. Always balance enthusiasm with wisdom.

LIBRA (September 23 - October 22)
This month is quiet for the first two weeks. There are 10 planets in our solar system to consider but for Libra they are all at distant angles and so just slightly stimulating you. The middle of the month you will feel inspired to do many things, though, as Mars will come opposite Libra. So meditate in the first two weeks and prepare to be active in the second two weeks.

Libra Buddhists keep life in balance. This month organize the meaning of your life for the first two weeks and then act on those decisions in the second two weeks.

SCORPIO (October 23 - November 21)
This month you are a little stressed with things that are out of your immediate reach or control. This is because the Sun and Mercury are opposite your sign and Neptune is square. Basically focus on one particular goal. If you try too hard you may find you get scattered and lose focus. Just pursue small and simple goals.

Scorpio Buddhists are passionate. This month relax and don't follow your desires. Just be peaceful. It takes a clear mind to accomplish a meaningful life, so keep your mindfulness in place.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 - December 21)
Feelings are still important as Pluto is in your sign for ages to come. What is beneficial is Jupiter is in Sagittarius also and this makes your feelings positive. This month starts with a big rush as Jupiter is squaring Mars and Uranus. You are motivated but possibly moving too fast. Slow down for the first ten days and don't try to do too many things. The whole month has a certain level of intensity to it, so being mindful and moving slowly would be good advice.

Sagittarius Buddhists are inspired individuals. This month I would recommend going slowly and being mindful. You will feel the urge to rush around. Recognize those feelings and stop yourself. Be mindful that doing something quickly does not always accomplish your goal.

CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 19)
This month your ideas about life are inspired. There are no planets in your sign but Uranus and Mars are well aspected and that stimulates enthusiasm and joy. You can set your goals and feel confident that there are no interferences to distract you. Your energy is positive and upbeat so make hay when the sun shines.

Capricorn Buddhists reflect and contemplate on decisions. This month you can apply yourself with full confidence to whatever you wish to do. It is a good time to follow your idealistic dreams and wishes.

AQUARIUS (January 20 - February 18)
You are still a spiritual and visionary center for the universe as Neptune is in your sign for ages. This month meditation is the best activity. You have Saturn and Jupiter well positioned to bless and stabilize your dreams. Be slightly careful mid-month as the Sun will run square your sign. That can mean you feel personally out of sorts even though things are going well. Just be peaceful and your composure will return to you quickly.

Aquarius Buddhists are sociable beings. This month your interactions with others are going well. Keep an eye on negative imagination, though, if you have any problems. If you are forgetful you will start to worry about things you have no control over. Be peaceful and all will go well.

PISCES (February 19 - March 20)
This month you are full of energy. Uranus and Mars are conjunct for the first two weeks and you are energized to pursue your goals. The only complication is that Venus is square your sign. Therefore be careful you don't pursue pleasure for the sake of pleasure itself. Remember, drinking salt water never satisfies your thirst. Think about what you are going to do before you do it.

Pisces Buddhists are sensitive and introspective. This month be active and inspired. Do spend some time thinking about what you want to do first though, as that saves time and energy.
