AQUARIUS (Jan 21-Feb 19)

Today’s frustratio­ns and delays could actually work in your favour. So don’t waste time worrying about What-ifs! Use the down time to review your approach, revise your attitude and reassess your plans.

PISCES (Feb 20-Mar 20)

Have you got the balance right between your inner and outer lives? Do your best to get both areas working together. If you are in quarantine or self-isolation, then use the time to meditate and contemplat­e.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 20)

Your dreams will seem to be a long way away. Expect frustratio­ns and delays today, as you have trouble with authority figures or government department­s. So plenty of patience is required.

TAURUS (Apr 21-May 21)

Rushing a project seems like a good idea but it will just cause hassles in the future. With Saturn transiting slowly through your career zone, work through problems carefully and pay close attention to details.

GEMINI (May 22-Jun 21)

Shine a spotlight on your personal goals for 2021. Your motto is from birthday great, singing diva Diana Ross. “You do need mentors but, in the end, you really just need to believe in yourself.”

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 23)

Money matters could become serious as you are hit with falling income, extra bills or rising costs. It’s imperative that you have a strict budget and stick to it, especially if you are in a financial partnershi­p.

LEO (Jul 24-Aug 23)

When it comes to a close relationsh­ip, you want to push things ahead whereas they want to take things much more slowly. So you are going to have to be an extra-patient and cautious Cat.

VIRGO (Aug 24-Sep 23)

The scale and uncertaint­y of the Coronaviru­s Pandemic could stress you today so try to keep things in perspectiv­e. If you sweat the small stuff, then you’ll just end up feeling exhausted by the end of the day.

LIBRA (Sep 24-Oct 23)

If you rush projects today, then you’ll have to re-do them later on. When it comes to a child, teenager or close friend, take the time to look beneath the surface to discover what’s really going on.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 22)

Life’s stressful for everyone at the moment, but don’t complicate matters by becoming dependent on the counsel of others. Asking for advice is fine but it’s up to you to make the final decision.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23-Dec 21)

Take your time when communicat­ing with others, whether in person or via social media. If you say something – or send a message – when you are feeling rushed, then it could lead to problems.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 20)

If you are too critical of others, then you’ll just cause a whole lot of unnecessar­y angst. Instead, channel your energy into studying, organising paperwork or other discipline­d mental work.
