Discover Your Destiny with Free Will Astrology

ARIES: Embrace the Unknown and Find Your Courage

(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): “Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow talent to the dark place where it leads.” So wrote Aries author Erica Jong. Is it true that it’s hard to access the fullness of our talents? Must we summon rare courage and explore dark places? Sometimes, yes. I believe the coming weeks and months will be one of those phases for you, Aries. But here’s the good news: I predict you will succeed.

TAURUS: Continue Your Journey of Innovation

(Apr. 20-May 20): In October 1879, Thomas Edison and his research team produced the first practical electric light bulb. Dear Taurus, the innovations you have been making, and I hope you will continue to make, are not as monumental as Edison’s. But I suspect they rank high among the best and brightest in your personal life history. Don’t slack off now. There’s more work to be done — interesting, exciting work!

GEMINI: Harness Your Inner Strengths

(May 21-June 20): I watched as the Thai snake charmer kissed a poisonous cobra, taming the beast’s danger with her dancing hands. I beheld the paramedic dangle precariously from a helicopter to save the woman and child stranded on a rooftop during a flood. And in my dream, I witnessed three of my Gemini friends singing a dragon to sleep, enabling them to freely traverse the bridge the creature had previously forbidden them to cross.

CANCER: Expand Your Influence

(June 21-July 22): The horoscopes you are reading have been syndicated in publications all over the world, yet it has never appeared in a publication in the U.K. That will change soon: a British newspaper or website will finally print Free Will Astrology. I prophesy comparable expansions in your life, too, fellow Cancerian. What new audiences or influences or communities do you want to be part of? Make it happen!

LEO: Embrace Success and Share Your Wealth

(July 23-Aug. 22): Author Jean-Dominique Bauby wrote, “Today it seems to me that my whole life was nothing but a string of small near-misses.” If you have endured anything resembling that frustration, Leo, I have good news: The coming months won’t bring you a string of small near-misses. Instead, I predict you will gather an array of big, satisfying completions. Life will honor you with bull’s-eyes, direct hits, and master strokes. Here’s the best way you can respond to your good fortune and ensure the arrival of even more good fortune: Share your wealth!

VIRGO: Reignite Your Passion

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo advice expert Cheryl Strayed wrote, “You will never have my permission to close yourself off to love and give up. Never. You must do everything you can to get what you want and need, to find ‘that type of love.’ It’s there for you.” I especially want you to hear and meditate on this guidance right now, Virgo. Why? Because I believe you are in urgent need of re-dedicating yourself to your heart’s desire. You have a sacred duty to intensify your imagination and deepen your willpower as you define what kind of love, tenderness, and togetherness you want most.

LIBRA: Embrace Mistakes and Seek Progress

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Author Adam Alter writes, “Perfect success is boring and uninspiring, and abject failure is exhausting and demoralizing. Somewhere between these extremes is a sweet spot that maximizes long-term progress.” And what is the magic formula? Alter says it’s when you make mistakes 16 percent of the time and are successful 84 percent. Mistakes can be good because they help you learn and grow. Judging from your current astrological omens, Libra, I’m guessing you’re in a phase when your mistake rate is higher than usual — about 30 percent. That means you are experiencing expanded opportunities to learn all you can from studying what doesn’t work well.

SCORPIO: Utilize Your Superpowers Wisely

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Sometimes you Scorpios are indeed secretive, as traditional astrologers assert. It’s also true that you may appear to be secretive when in fact you have simply perceived and intuited more than everyone else wants to know. Now is a time when you are loading up even more than usual with juicy gossip, tantalizing mysteries, and practical wisdom that few others would be capable of managing. Please use your superpowers with kindness and wisdom.

SAGITTARIUS: Unite the Unseen Aspects of Yourself

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I am coming out of semi-retirement to consecrate an unprecedented union. It’s between two aspects of yourself that have not been blended but should be blended. Before you read further, please identify these two aspects. Ready? I now pronounce you husband and wife, or husband and husband, or wife and wife, or spouse and spouse — or whatever you want to be pronounced.

CAPRICORN: Heal the Wounds of Adolescence

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “You don’t have to suffer to be a poet,” said poet John Ciardi. The coming months will be one of the best times ever for you to heal the wounds left over from your adolescence. You may not be able to get a total cure, but 65 percent is very possible. Seventy-five percent isn’t out of the question. Get started!

AQUARIUS: Embrace Change and Adaptability

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A psychic once predicted that I would win a Grammy Award for my music. She said my dad and mom would be in the audience, smiling proudly. Well, my dad died four years ago, and I haven’t produced a new album of songs for more than 10 years. So that Grammy prophecy is looking less and less likely. Is there any dream or fantasy you should consider abandoning? The coming weeks would be a good time to do so. It could open your mind and heart to a bright future possibility now hovering on the horizon.

PISCES: Surround Yourself with Positive Influences

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): I invite you to entertain the following theory: Certain environments, companions, and influences enhance your intelligence, health, and ability to love—while others either do the opposite or have a neutral effect. If that’s true, it makes good sense for you to put yourself in the presence of environments, companions, and influences that enhance you. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to test this theory. I hope you will do extensive research and then initiate changes that implement your findings.
