Mercury (Hobart)

Star watch

- with Joanne Madeline Moore

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19)

When it comes to your Aquarian aspiration­s for the future, it’s time to be proactive. Travel and education are particular­ly favoured, as you expand your mind to include adventurou­s new activities.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20)

Has your financial situation been erratic? No money when you need it, and then cash appears when you least expect it? If you develop a second stream of income, you will feel much more secure.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20)

Expect the sparks to fly as Mars and Uranus stir up your fiery feelings. Don’t overreact, or do something you will later regret. Instead, strive to handle things with extra energy and courage.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20)

The day will proceed well if you work strategica­lly behind the scenes, observing and being the power behind the throne. You can also transform your future by rebooting your dreams.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21)

The more effort you put into creating and communicat­ing your aspiration­s for the future, the more successful you’ll be. A loved one has an inspiratio­nal idea, so get motivated and listen up.

CANCER (June 22 to July 23)

Crabs are rather capricious creatures and mood swings are likely today as Mars and Uranus stir up your emotions. Keep busy and physically active. The worst thing you can do is be bored.

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23)

Gung-ho Mars links up with intrepid Uranus in your adventure zone. That means it’s a terrific day to exercise in the great outdoors, tackle an exciting project, or travel somewhere off the beaten track.

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23)

Don’t be a shy wallflower, Virgo. It’s time to speak up, mix and mingle, chat and circulate. However, when it comes to business matters or joint finances, avoid making any rash money moves.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23)

Make sure you communicat­e your relationsh­ip expectatio­ns clearly to other people, especially family members. Also, don’t apologise for expressing your views and personal beliefs.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22)

Avoid trying to control an unpredicta­ble situation. You are in the mood to be controvers­ial, but that could lead to unexpected consequenc­es. Just remember, some things are best left unsaid.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23 to Dec 22)

Today the stars activate your adventurou­s Sagittaria­n side, so jump out of your usual routine and do something totally different. Make sure you take a child, friend or lover along for the ride.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20)

Relations with family members will be lively and unpredicta­ble. You may also change your mind about a domestic or real estate matter. It’s important to keep your options wide open.
