Horoscopes WITH JENNY BLUME

OUR RESIDENT ASTROLOGER PREDICTS YOUR WEEK FROM OCT 25 TO OCT 31

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

Look out world! These turbo-charged stars could propel you into top gear, but factor in plenty of downtime or you’ll run out of steam. Creative projects should rejuvenate your spirits this month, so why not work some magic on your home or garden? And if that travel bug is beginning to nip, start researching a shared getaway – or an overdue weekend of romance. LUCKY NUMBERS: 2, 12, 18, 25, 32, 42

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

If loose ends are bothering you, start sorting. The decks need clearing, as next week’s new moon promises to bring something exciting into your life. Don’t feel guilty about needing ‘me’ time – why not grab some airpods and lose yourself in relaxing music? A meeting or seminar could leave you feeling inspired – don’t pike out. LUCKY DAY: FRIDAY

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

Feeling weighed down by responsibilities? Relax, cosmic help is at hand! When Mars bursts into your social sector over the weekend, you should feel a fresh surge of energy and optimism. Good times are heading your way, so try to organise catch-ups. Sunday’s sparkling stars might even set the scene for romance. Singles, ask a friend to play cupid! LUCKY SIGNS: SCORPIO & LEO

LEO JUL 24 – AUG 23

Your vision is laser-sharp, Leo, so don’t let someone’s negativity derail you. If you’re looking for more flexibility or home-based work, start investigating a few options. With your creativity firing, a pre-summer decorating spree or backyard blitz could produce good results. More boringly, a cupboard clear-out could prove both satisfying and profitable. LUCKY ITEM: FEATHER

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21

It’s time to stop and smell the roses, perhaps literally. Late spring looks busy for you, but for now, focus on recharging those batteries – expand your mind, explore the countryside or touch base with people you love. As your need to nurture intensifies, a new pet could make an appearance. For some couples, family expansion could become a hot topic. LUCKY FLOWER: PINK ROSE

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20

Lost in daydreams? If your mind keeps wandering, a change of routine – or scenery – should work wonders this month. Climbing out of ruts should be a cinch, so make a point of doing things differently. Be adventurous and try new things. Body-wise, a nagging feeling about a health or dietary issue could prove to be spot on, so get things checked out. LUCKY FLOWER: JASMINE

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 21

Bingo! A stroke of good fortune could be cause for celebration or your creative approach might pay dividends. Just watch that tendency to multitask – and try to slow down – or a mishap could prove embarrassing. For lovebirds, Venus could turn a dream into a reality. For singles, end-of-week drinks might be more interesting than expected. LUCKY NUMBERS: 7, 14, 17, 29, 37, 43

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEP 23

Your dreams are changing and evolving, Virgo, so let yourself do a little pondering. Spending time in beautiful settings should allow inspiration to flow more freely, so why not visit a few art galleries or open gardens over the weekend? If you’ve been yearning to get away, an opportunity could get you excited. Drivers, get your cars serviced! LUCKY DAY: SUNDAY

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

You may feel like the lone voice of reason this week, but your practical advice could make a real difference. Whether it’s playing peacemaker or smoothing ruffled feathers, you’ll handle tricky tasks with aplomb. It’s not all serious, though – social stars are casting a bright light. Why not start a lunchtime walking group or plan a picnic and games day? LUCKY CRYSTAL: AMETHYST

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

An instant connection could make this week interesting! For singles, it might even be the start of something special. Get yourself out and about if you can – fêtes, concerts and sporting events look like fun, and they might be where this life-changing person turns up. Health-wise, a transformational month awaits – take some positive steps and you won’t look back. LUCKY COLOUR: AQUA

CANCER JUN 22 – JUL 23

Your eye for detail is sharpening. Many Crabs will discover hidden talents as summer draws closer. Whether it’s in the office, on the sporting field or via a creative endeavour, have faith in yourself and give it a go. Singles might find plenty to please the eye, but don’t be blinded by appearances. Under the Scorpio sun, you need to dig deeper. LUCKY CRYSTAL: CARNELIAN

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

Don’t fall for someone’s tall stories or you could come off second best. Research decisions carefully, especially midweek, and stand your ground. Spring’s extravagant patterns might prompt a flurry of spending, but what’s money for? Escapism is just the tonic you need right now, and as travel and romance interweave, a long-distance love affair beckons. LUCKY FLOWER: WILD FLOWERS
