Your Personal Horoscope 2017. Joseph Polansky
change their mind during Mercury’s retrograde or delay certain actions. Use the delays to gain clarity and set goals for the future.
On the 21st Mars will move into your money house. (Mercury will move backwards into Aries on the 20th.) Financial intuition becomes important – except it needs verification during this period. Financial guidance will come in dreams or through other spiritual sources – ministers, gurus, spiritual channels, astrologers, tarot readers, etc. But you should confirm your insights with several of these sources before making any decisions. Mars in your money house will incline you to make quick financial decisions, but you should resist the urge until Mercury starts moving forward again early next month.
There is career success on the 13th and 14th – and the family as a whole seems successful too. But career is starting to wind down. The planetary power is beginning to shift to the lower half of the chart. The shift will be stronger next month, but you start to feel it from the 19th onwards.

The month ahead is Taurus heaven. It is a month of prosperity. The cosmos impels you to do what you most love to do – focus on finances.
There are many nice financial developments happening this month. Your financial planet starts moving forward on the 3rd, so your financial intuition is much more reliable now. From the 1st to the 11th Mercury and Uranus are travelling together. This brings sudden financial windfalls. Parents and bosses seem supportive. On the 16th Mercury will cross your Ascendant and enter your 1st house, bringing financial windfalls and opportunities to you. The money people in your life are supportive. You look rich and feel rich. People see you as a ‘money person’. Mars will be in your money house all month. This again shows strong financial intuition (the period from the 10th to the 14th is exceptionally good). You are fearless in financial matters these days. The Sun will enter the money house on the 20th, further energizing it. He brings good family support. You begin a yearly financial peak. Wealth and earnings will increase.
Health is still excellent all month. There are no planets in stressful alignment to you (only the Moon, occasionally, will make stressful aspects, but these are short-term things). You have plenty of energy and with energy comes increased possibilities. However, if you feel under the weather at times you still respond well to spiritual-type therapies. Physical exercise and scalp/face massage are also still powerful therapies.
Love is bittersweet this month. Venus and Pluto are not in good aspect. Thus you and the current love are in disagreement. You have to work harder on your relationship. The love life should improve next month.
Retrograde activity is still strong this month. Until the 3rd 40 per cent of the planets are retrograde; after the 3rd it’s 30 per cent. When starting new projects or ventures it is always best to have as many planets moving forward as possible. But if you must launch a new venture or product, this may be the time to do it – from your birthday onwards. This will give you a waxing (growing) personal solar cycle along with a waxing universal solar cycle. The 3rd to the 10th and then from the 25th onwards are the best times for new starts this month.

The planetary power is still mostly in the Eastern sector this month, although this will start to change next month. So if there are conditions that need changing in your life, this is the time to do it. Later on it will be more difficult.
Health is still excellent. No long- or short-term planet is stressing you out (only the Moon will do so occasionally). You have all the energy you need to achieve whatever you want to do. If you happen to feel under the weather, continue using spiritual techniques until the 6th. After that, neck and throat massage will be powerful therapies.
Venus’s move into your sign on the 6th is fortunate. She brings happy job opportunities for the job seeker. If there are vitamins, supplements or other health items that you need – they come to you naturally and normally without any special effort. Venus’s move into your sign is like taking a ‘grace’ pill. She confers social grace, sweetness of disposition, charm and beauty. You get on better with others. The love life will improve. Disagreements with the current love seem resolved after the 6th. The only issue in love right now is Pluto’s retrograde movement (since April 20). There’s no need to rush into important love decisions one way or another. Let love take its course.
You are still in a strong prosperity period until the 21st. The money house is still powerful. Family support is still good (and you are probably spending more on the home and family). Family connections are important in finance. On the 6th Mercury enters your money house – another good sign. He will be in his own sign and house and thus more powerful on your behalf. Earnings should increase. Whatever business you’re involved with, good sales, marketing, PR and advertising are important. This is so all month. People need to know about your product or service. Mercury in your money house also brings good wealth ideas.
By the 21st your short-term financial goals should be achieved. The money house empties and your focus shifts to other things – to intellectual interests and communication. This is as it should be. Money is only a means to an end. It is not the purpose of life. It buys freedom and time, so that a person can grow mentally and spiritually. This is a period to grow mentally.
By the 6th the planetary shift from the upper half of your chart to the lower half will be complete. For the next few months the lower half of your Horoscope will be more dominant than the upper half. Career can be downplayed. Now it is time to focus more on your home base and your emotional well-being.

Your financial planet, Mercury, has been ‘out of bounds’ since June 18. It is still ‘out of bounds’ on the 1st but is moving back into its normal boundary. So, in your financial life, you’ve been moving out of your normal orbit into uncharted territory. After the 1st you’re back in your normal sphere. The month ahead is prosperous. Venus (a very important planet in your Horoscope) moves into the money house on the 5th and spends the rest of the month there. This indicates great focus on the finances – which is 90 per cent of the battle. We get what we focus on. You spend on yourself and adopt an image of wealth. Personal appearance seems ultra-important in earnings. Be careful not to let the ego get too involved in finance though – anything that distorts the judgement is a problem.
Mercury has been in your 3rd house of communication since June 21, and remains there until the 6th. So, many of the financial trends we discussed last month are in effect until this date. Good marketing, advertising and PR are very important. On the 6th Mercury moves into your 4th house, indicating the importance of family and family connections. Family support should be good. You’ll probably be spending more on the home and family too. The financial planet in the sign of Leo makes you more of a risk-taker in financial matters – more speculative. This is not normal for you. On the other hand, sometimes we need to take a risk
