If home is where the heart is, why shouldn’t it follow the same stars that we do? Our relationships with our homes are sacred, and like most, could use a bit of counseling here and there. Tap on your sun sign and start making your house more of a home today!
Aries
An extra phone call is always worth the time if it can save you time, money or expand your knowledge. Make the effort. If traveling today means renting a car, check your personal auto policy to see what it covers before you buy the supplementary insurance.
Taurus
You are truly the hostess with the mostess. Ever notice how people pull their chairs closer together as the conversations deepen? You can make the seating in a spacious room seem more intimate by clustering chairs around a low table where you will put the tea service.
Gemini
Persevere, whether it is making that last sales call rather than blowing it off and going to a movie, or mowing the backyard so you don't have to get up early Saturday morning. Duty before pleasure reaps the greatest reward.
Cancer
Your world is not two toned, so why would you want a room in your house to be dull? Shades of sepia and white need texture and several accent pieces in bold colors. A three-dimensional piece of art in red and yellow flowers might be just the touch the room requires.
Leo
Your generosity can be overblown at times. Offering to loan your second car to a twenty-something grandchild is kind. But you would be wise to put some insurance, time and service parameters on what could be a long-term loan.
Virgo
Bringing a kitten home from the shelter is not a decision to be made lightly. Thankfully, you gave it proper thought. Save yourself cleaning time and put the cat's box in your least-used bathroom. A deep pan, a swinging entrance and a cover over the top mean the least litter on the floor.
Libra
Today, mind your animals who love you so faithfully. And while you're at it, make sure you're taken care of too. Brush your pets outdoors to minimize the airborne allergens they track inside.
Scorpio
Kittens and curtains around a bed are only cute until the felines catch their claws on their way up the fabric. You will need to compromise on the side where the cats win. Instead of hanging curtains, you can tie a canopy on the top of the bed to ease the snagging.
Sagittarius
Before contentment comes intent. Bring some abundant chi energy into your apartment by adding a new houseplant, hanging a crystal in the bedroom window to refract the light, or including objects that make pleasant sounds.
Capricorn
Your home may be tiny, but you do have the ability to create some extra storage space in overlooked nooks. A big stair landing may have enough space for a small cabinet; a small one may offer room for a few small shelves to hold treasured knickknacks.
Aquarius
An awning would add some much-needed shade to your outdoor sanctuary. As always, seek a quality product that fits within your budget. Maybe you can put off new lawn furniture until next year. Do not come to a purchase decision without your spouse.
Pisces
Obedience to a law you believe to be stupid is useful when you have nosy and unpleasant neighbors. Deal with the situation proactively -- remember you still have to live near these people. A drip system connected to an automatic timer takes the effort out of remembering which days you can drench your garden during water restrictions.
