Zodiac forecasts

As energetic Mars and encouraging Jupiter form a supportive alliance today, expect passions to be heightened and stress levels to be up. Mars can bring tension as well as desire, so Jupiter’s tendency to exaggerate could be like an all-you-can-eat buffet sign to Homer Simpson! But there’s no need for any damaging or dysfunctional behaviour. Mercury’s alignment with Saturn tomorrow suggests that, with discipline and determination, this could be an opportunity to turn a quick win into a long-term gain.

You’re on the point of making an important discovery which will lead you to see how something tiny is transforming into an exciting new venture.

Being strong-minded has many advantages. It’s another thing entirely to be ruthlessly determined to succeed. But just because you’ve come across someone who’s so focused on their goal that nothing can stop them, doesn’t mean that you are powerless to intervene.

By doing the right thing by the people who are too vulnerable to be heard, your action can go a long way towards righting a wrong. The planets are spinning into inspirational new alignments.

scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21

When you’re feeling sensitive and vulnerable it’s understandable to watch what you say. You don’t want to open yourself to unnecessary criticism.

There’s much to be gained by being resilient and even-handed, especially when you’re in the midst of a difficulty. But, for reasons unknown to you, you’re experiencing a feeling of powerlessness. All you want to do is to tie up the loose ends of something that’s been tricky to deal with.

It’s easy to forget that many of the freedoms we enjoy had to be fought for. There was a time when the weekend was limited to a single day that was mostly spent in prayer. There was a time when children climbed up inside dirty chimneys to clean them. The world is not perfect, but it’s easy to overlook improvements. Yet, while we can be grateful for the sacrifices made by our forebears, we can’t assume that their work is done. You have the opportunity to make a difference now.
