Aries Mar21-Apr20

You’ll be pleased to know that this week, life doesn’t require you to paraglide off a mountain peak or kayak down a waterfall. If you feel the need to undertake this kind of extreme challenge, feel free! You only need to handle a problem that seems scary. As the supermoon links to mysterious Pluto, you might well find yourself forced to smile as you deal with something you really don’t want to do. But, knowing that this endeavour will lead to success, you might find yourself beaming with delight.

Cancer Jun23-Jul23

What are you obliged to do this week? How much responsibi­lity rests on your shoulders? What’s going to happen if you don’t manage to live up to people’s expectatio­ns? Suppose you can’t honour all your promises? I know I’m bombarding you with questions, but I’m only raising them because they’re floating around in the back of your mind. I also know that you’re an honourable Cancerian. You don’t like letting people down. Yet when you realise that a situation isn’t viable, you’re fully entitled to renegotiat­e the terms.

Libra Sep24- Oct23

I really enjoy listening to “golden oldies” on the radio. But I love hearing the latest releases too. It would be pretty strange if every station only played the songs of yesteryear – like living in a time warp. Imagine if the only clothes in your wardrobe were ones that were in fashion a few years back? But it’s not just trousers and songs that change with the times; ideas change too. You’re older and wiser than you were. You’ve evolved. As your ruler links with Saturn, if you draw on your experience of the past, you can use it to inspire your future.

Capricorn Dec22-Jan20

Some people choose to live life close to the edge. Others try to keep far away from points of challenge. But “the edge” isn’t stationary. What might represent the edge for someone else may be in the middle for you. Even if you’re someone who prefers to feel secure, the edge shifts so that sometimes, inevitably, we all find ourselves perilously close to it. This week, even if you find yourself in a perilous situation, the supermoon in your sign will create a protective barrier. And if you feel like paraglidin­g over the top, go for it.

Taurus Apr21- May21

When you want to give someone something special but they’ve got “everything”, you might try to offer them a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A trip in a Spitfire. A ride in a hot air balloon. Or, if you’re feeling courageous, you might offer an even rarer experience: the chance to do nothing! As Venus links with Saturn, the great cosmic teacher, the skies are offering you the opportunit­y to take a step back from the tumultuous­ness of your world. Having nothing to do might make you feel uncomforta­ble… but if you adapt, you’ll love it.

Leo Jul24-Aug23

People get into trouble when they think they’ve got more money than they have; they spend more than they should. Blessings are a very different kind of currency. When we recognise that we have them and appreciate them, they tend to multiply. The assets in our hearts never diminish. The more we use, appreciate and share them, the more numerous they become. Your financial situation might not be ideal right now, but in other areas of life, you’re immeasurab­ly fortunate. Celebrate that and everything else will sort itself out.

Scorpio Oct24- Nov22

As soon as one “today” begins, another ends. Our tomorrows are constantly being shifted back by 24 more hours. Yet tomorrow influences our lives in subtle ways. It’s so clever that it somehow manages to sneak into our lives by pretending to be part of our present. And by the time it takes us to realise that we’re dealing with what “might” happen, rather than what’s actually going on, it’s often too late. Be on the lookout for tomorrow. This week, as the supermoon links with your ruler, Pluto, your future is brighter than you think.

Aquarius Jan21- Feb19

If your hands could talk, what would they be telling you? And suppose your mouth could speak for itself (rather than having to voice the concerns of the rest of your body)? And what about the various limbs and organs that don’t get much chance to express their feelings? Surely they deserve some considerat­ion and courtesy? Somewhere in your world this week, there’s a need that’s yearning to be acknowledg­ed. It can definitely be met. But only if you’re perceptive enough to realise its importance. Listen to your heart.

Gemini May22-Jun22

Why do people enjoy criticisin­g one another? Why does complainin­g seem to give them so much pleasure? Why, instead of looking for reasons “not to like”, don’t they try to co-operate? Irrespecti­ve of the reasons, you don’t have to get involved in any of this kind of game this week. You might not be able to create harmonious relationsh­ips everywhere you go, but you can be as friendly as possible. Even if you don’t seem to make much of an impact, you’ll feel better about yourself. And you’ll be amazed at how much joy that brings.

Virgo Aug24-Sep23

Sometimes, you can be overly sensitive. Your natural perspicaci­ty enables you to see more than anyone else. Your insight into people’s motivation­s, fears and concerns can overwhelm you. You see so much that you don’t know what to do with all the info you’re receiving. This week, with the supermoon linking to mysterious Pluto, you might need to protect yourself by erecting some boundaries. But, you can use your skills to help someone who’s struggling. As long as you don’t negate your needs, you can help to change someone’s life.

Sagittariu­s Nov23- Dec21

I love the saying “diagnosis is half the cure”. It’s not just a medical expression; it works in all aspects of our lives. When we understand why we feel like we feel and have insight into our problems and challenges, we can take steps to implement change and make things better. But the evaluation needs to be thoughtful and accurate. It’s not going to be much help if you don’t give yourself the right treatment. This week will shed helpful light on the true nature of an old problem. Potentiall­y, that represents the most wonderful news for you.

Pisces Feb20- Mar20

I’ve got a terrible old joke for you. A person walks into a surgery and says, “Doctor, doctor, people keep ignoring me.” The doctor doesn’t look up. They just buzz the intercom and say, “Next, please.” You’ve been desperatel­y trying to get someone to listen to your ideas. But they’re not paying attention. This week, the supermoon brings the resilience to keep patiently making your point. The response won’t be immediate. But you’ll be heard. And understood. And that will make a big difference to the relationsh­ip, and your world.
