ARIES
(March 21-April 20)

To predict how Saturn entering Leo this weekend will affect you, it helps to know the house Saturn's in, in your chart. However, it's likely your ego will be less prominent, and old, aggressive tactics may desert you at odd moments. As for ramming your head against a brick wall until September, 2007: probably counterproductive. Still, Aries trines Leo, so you could end up learning the fine art of circumambulating walls. Love: tender; career: persevere; health: walk, don't ram.



TAURUS
(April 21-May 21)

Starting this weekend, you may find you're more irritable on occasion over the next couple of years, as limiting Saturn enters Leo. You square Leo, meaning that the stubborn, defensive side of you that charges and gores when riled conflicts with the entitled side that, when crossed, can bite off heads. It helps to know the degrees in your chart where Leo resides because you might be a lucky Taurus who can avoid the battle. Love: true; Career: you keep on tickin'; Health: chugs along nicely.



GEMINI
(May 22-June 21)

You sextile Leo, so constructive discipline wins out over dogged diligence for you as Saturn enters Leo this weekend and resides there until September, 2007. Still, with Moon in water, fire and earth most of this week, and a couple of squares in air on Friday, it's not a super-playful week for fun-loving Geminis. Today, however, sextiles with Mercury and Venus bring flirtatious conversation, so make hay while the sun shines. Love: pleasant; Career: delete cross-talk; Health: alternate organic with deep-fried.



CANCER
(June 22-July 22)

Ding-dong, the wicked warlock is dead as Saturn picks up his muddy shoes and creeps off to bug Leo for awhile. Most crabs will find themselves humming when they wake up Saturday morning. Those with Saturn (or other significant planets) in Leo will have to grin and bear it until September 3, 2007. Mostly, you'll get back in the swim of things quickly. When people ask where you've been these past three years, smile and say, "Saturn happens!" Love: wants to party; Career: reversing course; Health: take five.



LEO
(July 23-Aug. 23)

Saturn, planet of lessons and challenges, is a bit crotchety in Leo, being the ruler of your opposite sign, Aquarius. Starting this weekend, when Saturn pays you a visit, you'll be a more serious-minded cat (through September 3, 2007). You'll tighten up your life and may even close down Party Central for the time-being. Saturn brings a period of reflection, inviting great productivity. Much depends on its aspects with other planets in your chart. Love: fuels you; Career: keep at it; Health: accept.



VIRGO
(Aug. 24-Sept. 22)

You'll be relatively hassle-free as Saturn enters Leo this weekend until September, 2007, because you don't have "afflicted" aspects with the sign that precedes yours. Also, Saturn is often beneficial for earth signs since it's a dense, earthy planet. Being next to Leo in the zodiac, you might have Mercury or Venus there, however, so Saturn could zing you after all. But many Virgos enjoy Saturn's specialty: discipline. It has vays off making you tick. Love: say "Yes!"; Career: windfall, soon; Health: sound.



LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

Are you age 29 or 58? If so, Saturn, planet of lessons (in Leo this weekend to September, 2007) is about to unload your "Saturn return": passage of youth to the 30s; middle-age to seniority. Libra is not "afflicted" (squared or opposed) by Leo, however, so unless you're the ages mentioned above, just ignore my Saturnian warnings. Today (Thursday), Moon in Libra sextiles Mercury and Venus for breezy, sweet love, most dear to romantic you. Love: at hand; Career: go on, ask for more; Health: learn to catnap.



SCORPIO
(Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

You square Leo, so Saturn returning in that sign this weekend will affect you in ways even my psychic powers, coupled with an endless fascination with astrology, can only guess at. One possibility is that, just when you're sure you've got it made, another lesson arises and has you rethinking the whole darned thing. It won't happen every day until September 3, 2007, but you may be disappointed now and then to realize just how human you can be. Love: needs attention; Career: gels soon; Health: chill.



SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 23-Dec. 20)

Fire burns low to the Earth as Saturn enters Leo on Saturday to September, 2007. It's snuggly, so don't fight it, just settle in with a love-mate and dream of exploits to come. You trine Leo, so make the most of the transforming (as opposed to the limiting) powers of disciplinarian Saturn. In the meantime, Monday and Tuesday bring big returns on investments, as your Moon trines and sextiles the Big Four: Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter. Love: affectionate; Career: you have choices; Health: lounge.



CAPRICORN
(Dec. 21-Jan. 20)

Saturn in any sign works for you because it's your planetary ruler and you naturally take to responsibility and discipline. In fact, you can be rather hard on yourself at times. So when Saturn enters Leo Saturday, you won't be unduly affected by its smoldering gaze (unless you have other planets in Leo, or squares to it that cause frustration). A cherished goal may suddenly be attained when the Moon in your sign conjuncts Uranus on Wednesday. Love: calls soon; Career: finesse it; Health: sleep in.



AQUARIUS
(Jan. 21-Feb. 18)

Saturn is one of your planetary rulers (the other is Uranus). But when Saturn is in Leo, your opposite sign, as it will be from Saturday through September 3, 2007, you could find yourself at odds with people who seem to want to thwart your creative drive. During this (rather short-lived) Saturnian cycle, you'll probably want to finish the book, build the house or get in shape for October, 2007, when it all comes together just as you've dreamed. Love: your ally; Career: don't look back; Health: cruise.



PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)

Expect a fun weekend as Saturn leaves water for fire (Leo), and the Scorpio Moon trines action-hero Mars. You may have felt becalmed the past few years, with Saturn in Cancer. Now you'll swim blithely forward, spying other pretty fish (perhaps in your own school!), bright coral reefs and even a buried treasure here and there. The only "hook" is if you're 29 or 58, and you're having your Saturn return. That's like going from the frying pan into the fire. Love: sympatico; Career: a gusher! Health: energized.
