ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

If you didn’t have a sneaking feeling that something wasn’t quite right, then something wouldn’t be right. There are always issues to deal with, and you’ve had more than a few challenges to cope with this week. Yet the difficulti­es you’ve been involved with have done you a favour. They’ve helped you identify a number of factors that you’ve been putting up with, which need changing. This weekend, as the Sun and Mercury link, it will be easy to rise to any remaining challenges. Your effort will bring positive effects… that last.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

Given the choice between knowing things in advance and having informatio­n sprung on us, most people would choose the former option. We prefer it when we have a bit of time to think and plan ahead. That’s why we turn to astrology. Yet, this weekend, as your ruler, the sun, links to Mercury, it’s your ability to adapt that will enable you to profit from the astrologic­al climate. Expect all sorts of stimulatin­g events to pop up and surprise you. If you go with the flow, you’ll be energised with ideas and profit from being in the spotlight. Free audio and video forecasts.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

Great world leaders and politician­s always proclaim to know what’s best for us. They write blogs and books purporting to understand what lies at the root of society’s problems and explaining why they’re the right person to fix them. Yet these people come and go. It makes you wonder why we ever think they know more than we do! This weekend, with Mercury linking with the Sun, you only need to rely on one fount of knowledge. If you trust your instincts you’ll know how to deal with someone who thinks they know best.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

They say all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Then again, given that the protagonis­t of Stanley Kubrick’s film The Shining wrote these words obsessivel­y as he slipped ever deeper into a state of craziness, perhaps we should be a little more inclined to question its wisdom. Work doesn’t need to be mundane. And play isn’t synonymous with excess. You’ve got a lot on your plate, this coming weekend. If you approach your tasks with a positive attitude, you’ll be able to strike a perfect balance between success and fun.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

In the beginning, we are told, was the Word. Then over the next six days came light, the oceans, plants, animals, and everything necessary to sustain and create life on our planet. Impressive, huh? Yet if all that really did happen over a week, why does it take us so long to do anything? Why can’t we be as effectivel­y productive and create something out of nothing? Actually, we can. And this weekend, with your ruler, Mercury, empowered by the sun, if you focus your mind on what you need, you may yet achieve a miracle or two.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

We don’t often speak of astrology as something to be wary of, but like most things in life, it can be misinterpr­eted and misused. Someone can, for example, read about their sign’s characteri­stics and instead of trying to change their ways, shrug their shoulders and think, well, I can’t help being like this, it’s how I am. But even Capricorns have room for some selfimprov­ement. Your task, this weekend, as Mercury and the sun link, is to be the best you can be. If you can manage that, you’ll make it a weekend to remember.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

Are you expecting miracles this weekend? What are the possibilit­ies of something amazing coming into your world? Would it be unrealisti­c to expect dramatic changes that unleash exciting possibilit­ies? Would I mention these things if they were irrelevant? No. Whether you feel optimistic, or whether you feel worn out by your efforts to achieve an objective, the message is clear. As the sun links with your ruler, Mercury, the next chapter of this particular story holds an exciting developmen­t. And it leads to a happy ending.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

Why do we exaggerate? It’s as if we don’t think reality has enough oomph in it to have a powerful enough effect. The poet Khalil Gibran wrote that exaggerati­on is truth that’s lost its temper. In these strange times, when we’re bombarded with examples of truth being manipulate­d with impunity, maybe it’s so tired of being misbelieve­d that, in its desperatio­n to be heard, it feels justified in a bit of exaggerati­on. The sun/Mercury link this weekend, brings you the insight to see the truth of a confusing situation – and sort it out.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

You’re one of those people who like to be involved in whatever’s going on. That’s why you’ve got a reputation for not being able to leave things alone. But that’s not completely true. If there’s no problem, you’re very happy not to fix it. But if you happen to spot a flaw in a well-researched plan, you’ll happily point it out. And if you come across a pretence in a wellpresen­ted argument, nothing will stop you from seeking the truth. This weekend, your refusal to let things be will lead to a valuable discovery that will enhance a relationsh­ip.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Some people long for a time when they’ll be able to make sense of everything in this crazy world. They spend their lives trying to create a semblance of order. You, on the other hand, like living with a sense of mystery: the possibilit­ies of the unknown excite you. When situations are black and white you enjoy blending the colours to create a richer picture. Life’s so much more rewarding when things combine in vibrant, surprising ways. This weekend, you can help create a scenario that brings happiness.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

As things seem to be falling into place, your involvemen­t in a situation is changing. You can allow this to happen. You’ve done the hard work. You’ve shown commitment. Yet you’re at that final, tricky stage where what ifs and maybe I should have done it differentl­y risk spoiling the fulfilment you deserve. A degree of self-doubt, mixed with excitement is at work. This weekend, a new idea, even if it’s captivatin­g, could prevent you from freeing yourself from a finished project. It’s time to move on to bigger and better things.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

In an ideal world, you’d beam yourself to a paradise-like sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of life this weekend. If only you knew, with certainty, that the only people you had to interact with were going to be bastions of calm and considerat­ion. If only you could forget all the issues you’re dealing with knowing that someone else was going to take care of them. That would be perfect. Although there’s no getting away from some aspects of your world, you can step away from some of the more challengin­g ones. And relax.

 ?? ?? Today in 1799, the Rosetta Stone was unearthed in Egypt. The same text appeared in Egyptian and Greek, allowing the hieroglyph­ic symbols alongside to be translated - although interpreta­tions often differ. My cousin Jemima, Jonathan’s daughter, has begun journeying into profession­al astrology. I’m excited to see the path she’ll carve for herself in this field of arcane knowledge. And, as the sun and Mercury link this weekend, decipherin­g ethereal messages into empowering informatio­n will be easier to do.
