Morality is fluid. One person’s justificat­ion is another’s cause for recriminat­ion. Yet some principles are universal. As Saturn and Jupiter make their most intense alignment since the Great Conjunctio­n of 2020, they call our ability to stick to our beliefs into question. We need to focus on where we can do good. Sometimes flawed pragmatism is preferable to the search for unattainab­le perfection. Guided by generosity and optimism there’s much that can be done to improve life for everyone. ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Today’s indisputab­le truth is tomorrow’s dubious assumption. Well, maybe not tomorrow’s. Things don’t always change so quickly. Yet there eventually comes a time when the issues we’re currently prioritisi­ng start to lose their urgency and even become irrelevant. Of course, you’ve got responsibi­lities to honour, which you can’t overlook just because you’re seeing the wider perspectiv­e. But if you focus only on what’s happening just beneath your nose, life risks becoming needlessly draining. Take a step back from the fray today. Free audio and video forecasts.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

Although it’s impossible to bluff our way through life, faking it ‘til we make it is a policy that has merit. The trick is to find a balance between the two approaches. Some pretences can be kept up for a while, but will eventually catch us out. But sometimes, if we feign an interest, and force ourselves to find an enthusiasm we don’t really feel, we can end up enjoying ourselves. Today, if you find yourself forced into an uncomforta­ble position of responsibi­lity, act as if you know what you’re doing. You’re even more capable than you think. Free audio and video forecasts.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

Multinatio­nal corporate executives think that good planning leads to success. As long as policies are properly implemente­d, reviewed and observed, everything will go according to plan. Do they live on a different planet to the rest of us? Haven’t they heard about the joys of being impulsive and spontaneou­s? As your ruler, Jupiter, links with Saturn, you’re presented with a situation that you don’t know how to handle. Does that mean it’s going to be problemati­c? Be creative and do what feels right. It will work out brilliantl­y.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

Love isn’t always reasonable. Or sensible. It certainly doesn’t always make sense. Friendship, on the other hand, is different. We choose to spend time with people because they make our lives better. We go to them for fun, for happiness, for comfort, and for support. This kind of connection is built on a sense of similarity. We often seek reflection­s of ourselves. If you cross paths with someone who you sense needs a boost of positivity, treat them as you’d treat a friend today. You’ll both benefit from this exchange.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

You can’t move for people offering you advice. While it’s meant kindly enough, you’re struggling to see the wood for the trees let alone decide which route you’re going to take. And I’m conscious that, in writing this, I risk adding to the cacophony. Since my advice would be to ignore everyone, I’ll mix things up with a little reverse psychology. So… why not do everything everyone’s telling you to do? If that sounds fun, and productive, then go for it. (If not, retreat to a quiet space. Listen to your inner voice of wisdom. It’s right).

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

There’s no point trying to win someone’s approval when they’re intent on contradict­ing your ideas. But that doesn’t mean you should stop trying to win people over and gain influence. Your plan is well thought-through. And even though some folk aren’t ready to jump on board, there are others who will. You’re not on your own. Not only do people recognise the challenges ahead, they want to be part of the solution. As your ruler, Saturn, links with Jupiter, you’ll find the encouragem­ent you need to implement your ideas.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

There’s a lot to be said for getting things right. Other people might not understand your desire to be so conscienti­ous but you know why it’s important… and you’re right. You’ll need to be assertive in order to maintain your standards today. Although someone’s being antagonist­ic, their attitude stems from a sense of inadequacy. Do what you can to avoid the need for confrontat­ion. But don’t compromise your integrity. As long as you’re diplomatic, and gentle, you’ll be able to manage any resistance in a mutually beneficial way.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

What do you know? What’s unquestion­able? What’s beyond all reasonable doubt? Sorry, I know you’re not one of those people who enjoys this kind of question. In the face of new informatio­n, Librans are, after all, adept at re-evaluating the facts and pondering the possibilit­ies. But even you have fixed points that ground you and make you who you are. They serve as markers when you’re unsure, and guidelines when you feel lost. If you identify what you know today, you’ll rapidly reduce the amount you don’t know.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

That was then, this is now. If you find yourself feeling stuck, make this your mantra today. In the time it takes you to say it, then will have become now, and the situation you’re in will hold different potential. Or, if that sounds a bit too philosophi­cal, you could always just decide to banish into the background anything that’s too mind-boggling. Do whatever’s necessary in order to make the space and time to be able to recognise and welcome the invitation being extended by the kindly cosmos. It’s time to leave an aspect of the past behind.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Not all habits are bad and not all routines are restrictiv­e. Often, when we’re trying to effect significan­t change, we can set positive processes into motion by making minor adjustment­s. Once we’ve started the ball rolling, everything’s affected. As Saturn and Jupiter link, that’s worth rememberin­g. Even if you free yourself from a relatively trivial mundane task, you’ll make space for something fresh and exciting to come into your life. If you show the world that you have faith in a brighter future, you’ll see proof that it’s on its way.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

It’s easy to become disoriente­d when travelling on the Undergroun­d. Without light or reference points, we lose sight of where we are, and how far we’ve travelled. We have to refer to the map, and keep track of the stations until our stop. For all we know, we could be sitting on a machine that’s jiggling around not going anywhere. You’ve been making headway without seeing much evidence of progress. As Saturn links with Jupiter, even though your surroundin­gs look similar, you’re close to where you need to be.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

“The path of least resistance is an easy route to tread. We choose it every morning when we stumble out of bed.” When things get tough, this little snippet of verse is a helpful reminder of the reason life brings challenges our way. We find ourselves striving and struggling to make progress, but we persevere rather than wallow in discontent­ment. You know what you need to do, what you’d like to do, and what you’d rather avoid doing. Yet you’re finding it hard to find the determinat­ion to do it. Give it one more try, today. It’s worth the effort.
