Horoscopes just for Nurses!

Scorpio

You will be filled with the uncontrollable urge to do one silly thing this week, Scorpio. Better do it early and get it right out of the way. Do a silly thing TODAY. If that urge comes back tomorrow, well, give in to it, and that should cure the problem. Really. Nothing in your stars mentions ridiculous walks, animal imitations, or dancing in the hallway…honest…we mean it…

Sagittarius

Security weighs heavy on Sagittarius’ mind this week; anxiety abounds. Resist the temptation to pile on extra hours: burn yourself out and you won’t be doing yourself any favors. This tension will pass as the season changes.

Capricorn

An unexpected visitor will cause chaos and upset…it’s difficult to tell from here if that means patients, inspectors, or celebrity guests, but you’d better try to be ready!

Aquarius

You know how they say there’s no such thing as a dumb question? This week you’ll discover why that saying is wrong! The stars promise learning opportunities in quantity for mentors, preceptors, ‘buddys’ and other supervisory types.

Pisces

Pisces wins the week! Your stars are in alignment. Everything you touch will turn to gold…well, actually, that didn’t work out too well for King Midas. Maybe every patient you touch will turn into a grateful, compliant, relatively self-sufficient decent human being. That’s only slightly less likely than the gold thing, right?

Aries

Given the opportunity, miracles could happen this week. Failing that, I heard there’s good cake in the cafeteria.

Taurus

Taurus has a week of challenges ahead. Fortunately, some of that famed Taurus determination will kick in and get you through the worst of it. That, or judicious use of sick time…

Gemini

Anticipation can be a positive emotion — you can look forward to the end of your shift — or a negative one, where you dread discovering exactly what those noises coming from in the next room means. This week you’ll have to choose, Gemini, but pick carefully…the immediate choice is seldom the best.

Cancer

Connections are important, as romance and family dominate your charts. That being said, don’t overlook the value of connecting the 02 to the mask, the monitor plug to the outlet, things like that!

Leo

If you want to make your NM laugh, just tell her you have plans.

Virgo

Once upon a time, Virgo, you dreamed of working in a laboratory, test tubes and beakers, solutions bubbling over the bunsen burner, the whole bit. That analytic passion will serve you well this week…or will get you drafted to pinch hit for stressed out pharm techs!

Libra

It’s not magic, just your natural skills and talents at work, Libra. But you don’t have to let THEM know that!

Horoscopes just for Nurses!

Scorpio

You’ve heard of vicarious trauma? Now’s the time to explore vicarious joy, Scorpio. Turn those keen eavesdropping skills on in search of the joy — and give yourself permission to laugh at other people’s jokes, smile at their stories, and so on. (Okay, you can be subtle about it…this time.)

Sagittarius

Communication troubles occupy Sagittarius this week. Some hospitals are moving toward distributing iPhones to make in facility communication easier, but not yours. Nope, you lucky thing! Your administrator saw the promo for “The Men Who Stare At Goats”, thought it was a documentary, and ordered you all to begin developing your psychic communication skills! Good luck!

Capricorn

It’s hard to tell who’s feeling worse this week, your colleagues or your patients! We understand you’re trying to stay healthy, Capricorn, but setting up isolation protocols at the nursing station is sure to ruffle some feathers.

Aquarius

Document, document, document. If it all turns out to be unnecessary, you’ll have improved your typing skills. And if it is necessary, well, you’ll be glad you had it written down.

Pisces

Joy is to be found in the small moments this week, Pisces. The way a patient squinches up their face when you stick them…it’s exactly how they’ll look when they’re 110! Stuff like that. Enjoy them.

Aries

This week, you will once again refrain from strangling the co-worker who remarks it would be nice if someone did something about keeping the unit tidy for a change. And this is good karma, which is all that will save you from tripping face first over someone’s trash and breaking your nose. Congratulations!

Taurus

Your stars show that you’ll leave one little scrap of paper maybe on the floor and someone who can’t be bothered to watch where they’re going will trip on it and all kinds of drama will result. Unless, of course, you could distract them BEFORE they trip and avoid the entire accident. Maybe it would be wise to engage them in some sort of activity — maybe straightening up the unit?

Gemini

A clean desk is a sign of an untidy mind. Gemini revels in the creative clutter of the workplace this week, a veritable productive flutter of charts and orders and restocked supply cabinets. That is, of course, until the second hour of the workweek. It’s all down hill from there, we’re afraid.

Cancer

Supportive family members are great. That way, when Granny decides to take a leap up out of bed, do an Olympic-worthy dive, and start heading for the floor, they can catch her! This week will be an exercise in seeing the positive.

Leo

Attention loving Leo will enjoy this week, where every patient has their finger permanently pressing on the call button, every caller wants to know how “Mom” is doing, every order needs clarification and there’s a doctor with lots of Very Important Questions that have to be answered STAT!

Virgo

You will encounter unexpected hostility today, Virgo; remain calm and stick to your guns. It might take some doing to convince your drug seeking patient that you gave them their meds or your insistent visiting family that Grandma really *doesn’t* need to get up and stretch her legs — but you can do it, and you’ll carry the day!

Libra

Never underestimate the power of one well-placed whoopie cushion to improve a unit meeting.

Horoscopes just for Nurses!

Scorpio

Flexibility and nerves of steel are required to handle the many changes that surround you this week, Scorpio! We know how much you “LOVE” change — but look on the bright side: H1N1 inspired visitor restrictions cut down on the number of annoying family members you have to tolerate!

Sagittarius

The nursing shortage occupies your attention Sagittarius — whether it’s an attempt to discern why you can’t find a job or how the winners who work on your unit DID!

Capricorn

Administration-type experts have decided the best way to alleviate pandemic-induced stress is to offer nursing staff the opportunity to attend classes and complete stress-management exercises — in other words, more work! Don’t be surprised when the powers that be reveal themselves less than enthusiastic about your alternate plan of playing paintball in radiology.

Aquarius

Projectile vomit? No problem. Slimy diarrhea explosion just before you sit down to your lunch of chili and beans? You don’t even blink. But the news that Kate Gosselin is planning on returning to nursing since the whole TV thing isn’t working out so well? It’s enough to make a nurse queasy — good luck holding onto that lunch!

Pisces

Frustrations melt away when you discover the secret to getting everything done: just ignore all those pesky patients with their codes and medications and need for human contact, and you’ll find the paperwork practically does itself! Pisces struggles with time management this week, but don’t sweat it: you’re one nurse who DOES have their priorities in order!

Aries

A sweet outlook on life makes the days fly by, Aries…but you’ll want to test your blood sugar and make sure that you’re fully oriented to reality at least a few times.

Taurus

Be open to possibilities, Taurus. Set aside your cynicism and pre-conceived notions. That way you can experience the delight of fresh discovery as humanity reveals its more — inventive — side of itself to you this week.

Gemini

If you’re getting ideas for NEXT Halloween’s costume from this morning’s admissions…well, points for creativity any way. This week your chart is full of inspiration and artistic endeavors. We just can’t guarantee that that particular wound really will look good in latex.

Cancer

If you are a psychiatric nurse, Cancer, nothing this week will seem the least bit unusual to you.

Leo

Interpersonal communications are difficult, Leo, but that has nothing on the problems you’ll have with monitors, pumps, computers and phones. You’ll begin to think it’s you, but it’s not…it’s just technology failing in the face of your magnetic personality!

Virgo

Hold onto your dreams and ideals, Virgo…they’re what keep you going in the face of drama, pathos, and administration initiatives. Well, that, and watching out for slippery surprises on the floor!

Libra

Given the chance, Libra, where would you go and what would you do? Don’t be afraid to dream big: this week holds the potential to make life-changing decisions! Or, barring that, there’s a pretty good payout on the state lottery…

Horoscopes just for Nurses!

Libra

Respect is a reciprocal relationship. Hold firm to your boundaries in a week where doctors demand to be handled with kid gloves, patients tell you you’re the most sadistic being to ever walk the face of the planet, and there’s just nobody who can fill four understaffed shifts but you. Things improve marginally after Thursday, but it will be hard not to let the doctors get your goat.

Scorpio

More than three surprising things will happen this week, Scorpio! We hope you’re prepared. Remember that you don’t have to handle everything alone: draw on appropriate resources and share the load as much as possible.

Sagittarius

What’s worse, Sagittarius – a patient who unhooks everything to go for a smoke — or the one who comes back and tries to hook themselves back up before you notice? Understanding the full range of possibilities makes it easier to keep perspective in what is likely to be a rough week.

Capricorn

Watchful and wary, Capricorn has a week full of near-misses and what-ifs ahead. Clear communication is essential; there are parties who have their own agendas. Remember that when a visitor just ‘happens’ to have Grandma’s pills in their hand…

Aquarius

You’re surrounded by sick people this week, Aquarius — runny noses, high temperatures, horrid coughs as far as the eye can see — and that’s just your co-workers!

Pisces

Nothing bonds nurses like sharing anti-anxiety medications…I mean, chocolate and coffee! Look forward to a week full of bonding opportunities!

Aries

Memories dominate your stars this week, Aries: did you remember to sign out that chart? Did you remember to log that order? Did you remember to disable the call light in bed six? Keep track of the important details and life will be easier.

Taurus

There is only one thing you can control, Taurus, and that’s your attitude. Hold onto that through a week full of twists and turns, and you’ll be just fine.

Gemini

When in doubt, snap the incriminating picture of your NM when you see her out on the town. It makes getting that vacation time much easier. More ethical Geminis might choose to delete the pic — but you don’t have to let anyone know that, do you?

Cancer

Never underestimate the power of one well placed whoopie cushion to change the mood, Cancer. This week is your chance to shake things up a bit; create joy and laughter whenever possible. Your smile will make a difference.

Leo

What does a 375-pound, 6-foot tall male nurse do to stop others from ‘borrowing’ his stethoscope? Why, he gets one in bright pink! Innovative thinking appeals to creative Leo; go outside of the box to get your way!

Virgo

Fresh beginnings always cheer you up: If you can’t shake these doldrums, go to the nursery and check out all the babies. If that doesn’t do the trick, listen to them cry for a while — and rejoice that your patients at least can say what’s wrong!

Horoscopes just for Nurses!

Libra

Lucky Libra has a fantastic week lined up. The stars are shining in your favor! Be open to new, exciting opportunities — but pass on that once-in-a-lifetime chance your patient offers you to get in on the ground floor of a promising investment opportunity.

Scorpio

Having the swine flu shot may be followed by miscarriage, death, or stroke — and guess who gets the lucky job of explaining to the patients that yes, they still need the shot, and no, all these after effects aren’t necessarily connected to it? It won’t be you if you’re smart about it, Scorpio — we suggest a conveniently timed code far, far away from that conversation.

Sagittarius

Conflict with co-workers makes this a challenging week. Maintaining professionalism is hard; resisting temptation when you google the worst offenders and find out what they’re doing when they’re not at work is even harder. Be careful what you research; you may find out more than you want to know.

Capricorn

Order and organization are your watchwords this week, Capricorn. Either you’re going to impose some on your life or someone’s going to impose some for you. The results are surprisingly refreshing; a change of this sort has been needed for a while.

Aquarius

Love is a many splendored thing, Aquarius — and stepping into that semi-private room at the wrong moment will reveal splendors you never needed to think about. We recommend knocking at all costs!

Pisces

Animals abound in your chart: we’re not sure if that means you’ll be treating animal bites and entertaining companion dogs in the waiting room or a trip to the zoo is in your immediate future…oh, wait. You’re a nurse! Every day is like a trip to the zoo!

Aries

Low tech is the new rage in body building, Aries — you could cash in on the trend by having the PT/OT crew have their patients carry your bag to the car at the end of the shift. What does that thing weigh? 800 pounds? It might be time to lighten up!

Taurus

Patience is a virtue, and apparently there are no virtuous people in the waiting room. This week, that could prove problematic — but if you choose to embrace the positive side of the situation, think of all the money you’ll save by not having to buy tickets to Cirque du Soliel — or Roller Derby — or the taping of the next Jerry Springer movie. You have it all, delivered to your workplace. (Ok, the costuming is a little lacking…)

Gemini

You provide some much needed guidance and relief in an unexpected manner this week. Don’t be so hard on yourself: you have a ton of wisdom and this week, someone is ready to hear it.

Cancer

Job seekers have a stressful week ahead; those nurses already employed are likely to experience a great deal of anxiety. Fret not: it’s not you, it’s them — and if you can hang in there, the situation will look brighter by the end of the week.

Leo

Connections and networking are your strong suit this week, Leo. Only YOU know the magic dialing sequence to make the pharmacy pick up the phone. Only YOU can get the doctor to respond to the page. Only YOU can persuade Mrs. Jones in bed six that she’ll develop inoperable carpal tunnel if she doesn’t leave hold of that call light. Enjoy these mad communication skills: by week’s end, you’ll be all talked out!

Virgo

Delight in small blessings this week, Virgo. A spare two minutes to run to the bathroom? Someone else got called in before you? A patient who says “Thank you” All of these glories might be yours — are you ready to appreciate them?
