Sagittarius Weekly Horoscope

This week is bubbling over with ambition and opportunity for you, Sag, but first, on the 18th, it’s time to shake it off! On this day, messenger Mercury waves goodbye to Virgo and your 10th House of Career and moves on to Libra and your outgoing 11th House of Social Networking for the next few weeks. After focusing so much of your attention on working your way up the ladder, now it is time to step back from your responsibilities and go see what everyone else is up to instead. This is a great period for networking and extending your contacts, so don’t be shy about calling people up, be they close friends or mere acquaintances, and getting together. Likewise, people you meet now could have a very positive impact on your future.

Of course, just because Mercury is moving on doesn’t mean the focus is entirely changing; on the 19th, alluring Venus will leave Leo and your 9th House of Expansion and Adventure, where she has been giving you a taste for the exotic. The planet of pleasure will then dive into Virgo and your capable 10th House, once again putting much of the universal focus on your professional achievements and reputation. This transit will make VIPs look upon you even more kindly than usual, so don’t be scared of putting yourself out there right now, because you’re sure to perform well. You could also earn some well-deserved rewards, especially if you’ve been putting in the effort behind the scenes. A big debut could be just around the corner.

This energy gets underlined on the 21st with a Virgo New Moon, which is special not only because it is the second in a rare pair of back-to-back Virgo New Moons, with the last one arriving in August, but also because it just so happens to be a turbo-charged Solar Eclipse. This will usher in major new professional opportunities and give you the chance to show everyone what you can do on an epic new scale. Don’t discount yourself now, because you can go further than ever before.

Also on the 21st, the Sun will form its once-a-year opposition to sober Saturn, currently in Pisces and your 4th House of Home. Perhaps you’re plowing away at a work project, making major progress, when a family member calls you with an emergency, or perhaps you’re already stretched thin at the office, and then a roommate causes some extra problems and you just about blow your lid from all the stress. You don’t need to worry that this energy will last long as it is only temporary, but it might indeed be a bit of a stressful way to close the week out.
