- With Joanne Madeline Moore

AQUARIUS ( Jan 21- Feb 19) You’ll quickly become bored with your usual routine. So plan something special Aquarius. And strive to be extra sensitive and compassion­ate towards a stressed work colleague.

PISCES ( Feb 20- Mar 20) The Sun makes a fabulous aspect to your ruler Neptune so it’s your time to sparkle and shine! You’re particular­ly in the mood to express your creative, spiritual and humanitari­an side.

ARIES ( Mar 21- Apr 20) The Sun and Neptune encourage you to escape into your own private world today. So meditation, contemplat­ion, creative visualisat­ion, daydreamin­g and artistic pursuits are all favoured.

TAURUS ( Apr 21- May 21) When dealing with family and close friends, being kind of heart – and offering sensitive advice – is a winning double at the moment Taurus. But don’t overcompli­cate things. Keep it simple.

GEMINI ( May 22- Jun 21) When it comes to profession­al matters and dealing with work colleagues, use your intuition to help you make an important decision. Your inner voice will point you in the right direction.

CANCER ( Jun 22- Jul 23) Crabs are good at dealing with people in subtle ways. Today, intuition and some sensitive questionin­g will help you get to the bottom of a complex situation with a family member or friend.

LEO ( Jul 24- Aug 23) Avoid getting drawn into a confusing discussion about joint finances or shared resources. Instead, channel your fiery Leo energy into lending a helping hand to someone who is in need.

VIRGO ( Aug 24- Sep 23) Include a loved one in your dreams for the future. In the words of John Lennon – who had Venus and Neptune in Virgo – “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.”

LIBRA ( Sep 24- Oct 23) It’s time to expand your profession­al world via nurturing creative projects and friendship­s at work. If you link up with like- minded people, it will open new doors of opportunit­y for everyone.

SCORPIO ( Oct 24- Nov 22) Strategic Scorpios love to organise everything and everyone. But today – with flowing Sun/ Neptune aspects – it’s time to be much more relaxed and just take things as they come.

SAGITTARIU­S ( Nov 23- Dec 21) Avoid accepting things at face value. Instead, look at issues in a deeper and more reflective way. Neptune also encourages you to be extra compassion­ate towards a family member.

CAPRICORN ( Dec 22- Jan 20) Have the courage to follow your instincts and be true to yourself! Your motto for the moment is from Capricorn actor Nicolas Cage. “You have to make your choices based on what’s right for you.”
