Zodiac forecasts

‘I put all my genius into my life; I put my talent into my works,’ said my fellow Libran, Oscar Wilde. His natal Sun was about 90 degrees from Jupiter, an angle that astrologers call a ‘square’. It denotes a tense relationship. But this tension often provides dynamism, and brings interesting results. Displaying as much wisdom as wit, Oscar Wilde embodied the charm that a ‘Sun square Jupiter’ configuration bestows. And as this aspect arrives at the weekend, it’s bringing similar qualities into all our lives.

aries Mar 21 – Apr 19

There’s no visitor so courteous as creativity. Like an old friend, it knocks quietly on the door every now and then. But, if we seem busy or anxious, it respectfully backs away. It never imposes itself unwillingly. We must invite it into our lives, and be prepared to capitalise on the opportunities it brings. After all, if we’re not interested, it has plenty of other people to call on. There’s nothing more important than your imagination. Carve a space for it in your world and it will enable valuable progress today. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

taurus Apr 20 – May 20

Wouldn’t it be nice if we had our own personal cheerleaders? A squad of highly trained supporters encouraging us to do our best, and cheering even when we don’t! We might feel more confident, be less likely to fall short of our goals and rebound from mistakes. But alas, we can’t all be American football teams! That doesn’t mean that we don’t deserve some extra support here and there, though. It might not be the NFL, but the universe is about to give you a cosmic helping hand. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

gemini May 21 – Jun 20

Another Friday! Another working week (for a lot of people) is drawing to a close. As one cycle ends and another begins, it’s easy to lose track of what’s important. This weekend, it’s worth taking a moment to reflect, and rekindle your hope in what the future will bring. You’ve achieved more than you realise lately. But it pales into insignificance compared to what you can do if you commit your focus and energy. You’ve got every right to be proud. But you’ve got even more cause to be optimistic. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

cancer Jun 21 – Jul 22

My son pretends he can move at the speed of lightning – which he thinks is the fastest thing on the planet. Of course, the speed of thought moves even faster. The distance we travel in our mind’s eye is faster than the speed of light. But recently I’ve discovered something that outpaces even this: the beat of our hearts. When we resolve to embrace whatever the world holds for us, our hearts are free to journey farther than even our minds can conceive. This weekend, let your heart lead the way. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

leo Jul 23 – Aug 22

Is a trusting heart always paired with a foolish mind? Does it pay to be suspicious of other people’s motives? It may save our blushes from time to time. But it decreases the chances of meeting the very people with the ability to make us blush in the first place! As Venus changes signs this weekend, your heart journeys into the unknown. But there’s no need to be cautious. The Sun’s links to, first Mars, and then Jupiter suggest that this bold adventure is worth getting excited about. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

virgo Aug 23 - Sep 22

You keep encountering people who are difficult to deal with. But, could this have something to do with the fact that you can be quite highly strung sometimes? You have strongly held views, ideologies and opinions and, what’s more, you’re not afraid of standing up for them. This is certainly not something to criticise but, if you can bring yourself to make an exception for someone’s tricky behaviour, as Venus moves into your opposite sign this weekend, you’ll see the favour returned tenfold. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

libra Sep 23 - Oct 22

If you’re a motorist you probably remember your first driving lessons. Most of us started by kangaroo-hopping the car, before stalling and cursing. We thought we’d never get the hang of the pedals and gear stick. It took intense concentration. Now, though, we motor about without giving the technique a second thought. There are so many life skills, where we go from delight in mastering them to taking them for granted. Don’t forget to look at the value to be had in perfecting a technique today. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21

Perfectionism has its place. If you’re an engineer working on a bridge, you need to have exacting standards. But for many of us, being pernickety closes the door on contentment. When we drive for miles in search of a five-star restaurant, how many brilliant yet unsung eateries do we pass by? When we want something to be ‘just so’, we set expectations that are doomed to fail. If you can be less restrictive about what you need to make you happy today, satisfaction is within easy reach. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21

Nowadays, there are pills and potions to cure every ailment imaginable. We need one pill for one thing, another for something else, a lotion for X, and a potion for Y. It doesn’t occur to us to stop and question whether a good night’s sleep and a decent meal might not be the answer! But, this constant reliance on so-called ‘solutions’ causes problems of its own. Consider all the options, this weekend. Sometimes the right answer’s so obvious that it’s hard to see… but so rewarding when you find it. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

capricorn Dec 2 2 - Jan 19

Life isn’t fair. But you don’t need me to tell you that. Everywhere you turn, injustice seems to sprout like weeds. Every time you manage to quell one, another springs up. So, what can you do to stop this spiral? You just need to get to the heart of the issue. And you do that by listening to your own heart and allowing it to guide you. As Venus moves signs this weekend, you’re more able to speak, think and listen from a more emotional and caring base. Once this begins, the rest will follow. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

aquarius Jan 20 - Feb 18

Sometimes, life thwarts our carefully considered plans and long-cherished dreams. Why, if we want them so badly, can’t we bring them to fruition? Are the celestial powers conspiring against us? Sometimes the universe has answers you can only dream of… and although its motivations aren’t obvious to you right now, they’ll reveal themselves soon. For now, you’ve just got to trust that it knows what’s best for you better than you do yourself. Enjoy the calm, because an adventure lies ahead. There’s love in the air in Valentine’s week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.

pisces Feb 19 - Mar 20

When someone’s in distress you’d hope that people would step in and give them a hand. But sometimes, we walk by. Perhaps we’re nervous of becoming embroiled in a situation that we don’t know how to deal with. Maybe we fear that we’ll make things worse, or worry that, if things go wrong, we’ll be held responsible. While these are all reasonable explanations, most of us, most of the time, stop to help. As Venus enters your sign, someone’s able to step in and make a positive difference to your life. Romance beckons in the coming week. For a personal prediction, call 1900 959 005.
