YOURSTARS

As Mercury changes signs this weekend, it catches up with the position of the Sun. And as the powerful Solar Eclipse arrives, it can be considered to form a conjunction with this event. But the Eclipse also conjuncts dreamy, impressionistic Neptune, and links to 2017’s great T-square. That’s a lot of astrological activity! This moment not only carries the seed of urgent new beginnings, but also the sensitivity to nurture their growth. It’s time for passion, compassion and action now. ARIES MAR 21 APR 20 It’s unlikely that you’ll ever be found sitting quietly at the back of the class, or demurring gracefully while someone hogs the conversation. Well, not if you’re a ‘typical’ Aries! But even the Ram most representative of their sign can’t be pigeon-holed. Full-on fiery confrontation is not always your way. There’s an unacknowledged subtlety to the way you plan your actions, and you’re capable of a nuanced approach when the situation demands. It’s other people’s tendencies to underestimate you that gives you your edge now. Take full advantage! Will this weekend’s eclipse change your life? Call 1900 959 005. LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23 We’re constantly being tantalised with new and exciting possibilities. On TV, or in the news, there’s always something ‘coming soon’ or ‘about to happen’! How genuinely novel are these prospects, though? Often, they’re merely a rehash of what was new last week. It’s a bit like watching someone perform a magic trick over and over again. With each repetition the novelty wears off a little more. Now though, there’s a chance for something authentically new to enter your life. Be prepared for a reason to smile today. How will this weekend’s eclipse touch your life. Call 1900 959 005. SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21 If someone gave you a once-in-a-lifetime use of a time machine, what would you use it for? To travel back and watch the pyramids being built? Or go further into the past and see the dinosaurs when they ruled the earth? Perhaps you would try to change the course of world events. Maybe warn the passengers in the Titanic of their impending doom? Or how about giving your younger self some tips? More realistically perhaps, this weekend’s Eclipse can be the opportunity to put right an old wrong, and in doing so, rewrite your own future. I need to tell you about this weekend’s eclipse. Call 1900 959 005. TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21 Like trying to peer through an early morning mist that’s reluctant to disperse under the heat of a pale winter sun - you’ve been grappling with a situation that has been unclear. With your visibility limited, it has surely been wise to take things slowly. But, inching forward, at a snail’s pace, has been extremely frustrating. At some point soon, you may be tempted to ignore the risks and just ‘go for it’. It’s worth hanging in there just a little longer though. The fog is lifting, your horizon is opening and the way ahead is about to become clear. Harness the power of this weekend’s eclipse. Call 1900 959 005. VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23 It’s unsettling when someone you care is facing problems. You find it easy to identify with them, and take on their stresses as your own. But, if we empathise too much we can lose perspective. Often, distance from a situation gives us a ‘bird’s eye view’ and allows us to be more helpful. You’re capable of performing a fine balancing act now. So, lend a helping hand, but try not to get too bogged down in the emotional minutiae. With the help of this weekend’s Eclipse, the more clarity you have, the more effective your support can be. Discover the potent power of this weekend’s eclipse. Call 1900 959 005. CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20 We like to think that we’re thoughtful, insightful human beings, but it’s always easy to fall prey to the prejudices and biases we’ve picked up throughout our lives. We may not even be aware that we’re doing it, so subtle and persuasive is the urge to seek out whatever supports our opinions. The purveyors of ‘click-bait’ and ‘fake news’ understand this, and use it to drive us into adopting ever more extreme positions. Mercury’s activity around the Eclipse gives you the chance to pierce this veil, and see the truth behind a contentious issue. An exciting eclipse is coming! It can touch you. Call 1900 959 005. GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22 There’s no point in becoming down-hearted, no matter how many obstacles life throws in our way. Even if many of our dreams remain unfulfilled, we can’t let things get on top of us. A simple switch of attention now, from the negative to the positive, will leave you in a much better position to tackle any outstanding issues. Make a conscious decision to celebrate the many wonderful things in your life. The weekend’s Eclipse, conjunct your ruler, promises not just a new beginning, but a new, higher and deeper understanding. How will this weekend’s eclipse benefit you? Call 1900 959 005. LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23 ‘Certainly, in taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy, but in passing it over, he is superior; for it is a prince’s part to pardon.’ So said Francis Bacon. ‘Living well is the best revenge,’ said George Herbert. Revenge has attracted much comment over the centuries. There are all sorts of different ways we’re advised to react if we find ourselves the victim of unfair treatment. Now, as Mars begins to move opposite Jupiter in your sign, if you rise above the temptation to strike back, you can gain more than you might think possible. How will this weekend’s eclipse change your life? Call 1900 959 005. AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19 In a heavy downpour, even clear waters are obscured by fastmoving currents. When a riverbed is stirred up, we can’t see what’s going on. But, really, all we have to do is wait a while and give everything a chance to settle down before proceeding. Perhaps, of late, your silt has been stirred? Actually, what’s been happening is a process of transition, which has brought a period of confusion. The Eclipse signifies that a chapter in your life is ending, and a new, brighter one’s beginning. Here comes the turning of the page. Feel the power of this weekend’s eclipse. Call 1900 959 005. CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23 When you are making a journey somewhere you’ve never been before, it’s easy to take a wrong turn. The question is, should you retrace your steps, or carry on in the hope that you’re following a temporary diversion? When your journey’s a geographical one, you can consult your satnav. With inner journeys, however, the way ahead is often not so easily divined. As we approach the Eclipse, your intuition can act as your own personal GPS. Trust in that, and you’ll soon find yourself on a better and more satisfying course. This weekend’s eclipse has mystic power for you. Call 1900 959 005. SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22 Many parents believe that children need discipline and boundaries. When we see toddlers fighting over a toy, it’s easy to believe that, if left to their own devices, mayhem would ensue. Yet, learning to express our individuality, and establishing our own boundaries is an important part of learning. It’s a difficult balancing act which, for many of us, continues internally throughout our lives. You have an unconventional idea that could be seen as a bit ‘out there’. Don’t be afraid to stand behind your insight and follow it through. Discover what this weekend’s eclipse means for you. Call 1900 959 005. PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20 Even the mightiest oak trees have humble beginnings. Even the greatest paintings were once nothing more than a blank canvas and a little inspiration. After all, nothing springs into existence fully formed. Sometimes it might look like that’s the case but, upon closer examination, we invariably find that much time, effort and imagination were necessary on the journey from inception to fruition. Pay attention to a seemingly insignificant idea now and, with the Eclipse in your sign, you’ll be amazed at the potential it contains. This weekend’s eclipse is crucial for you. Call 1900 959 005.
