CBT - cognitive behavioura­l therapy - seeks to make people aware of the thought processes behind their bad habits, and give them the tools to change the way they think and act. I mention this because there’s something that you’d like to do differentl­y. You’re repeating a pattern, even though you know that another approach would serve you better. Self-reflection can work wonders. You don’t have to be a slave to your own mind. If you can find flaws in the reasoning behind the pattern, you can easily break it. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

We teach our children the importance of modesty. We tell them that it’s good to be gracious and self-deprecatin­g – and that no one likes people who blow their own trumpets. The problem is, that this can swing the other way, so that we tend to underteach the value of having courage in our conviction­s. It’s never OK to allow people to walk over you. But the lines can be blurry and indistinct. Have you oversteppe­d the mark? Were you acting reasonably? You know the answer. Honour yourself today. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

Know your limitation­s, they say. Accept reality. Be pragmatic, live within your means. But if the White Queen in Alice Through The Looking Glass could believe six impossible things before breakfast, why shouldn’t we? Once we push back at selfimpose­d boundaries we often find they give way. This is not the moment to abandon a plan, a dream or a relationsh­ip. Instead, muster all your resources, give it another shot, and you might find that the White Queen is not the only one with magical powers. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

With Venus changing signs last weekend, you’re entering a phase when your gaze turns inward. It’s important to focus on ourselves; consolidat­e and evaluate, and spend time watering the tree of our own life. After all, there’s no point spreading our branches outwards if our roots pull up with the first gust of wind. Yet, as important as this process is, becoming too insular is unhealthy. We need security and stability, but not at the expense of opportunit­y and freedom. You can strike a balance today.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

We all need a break every now and then. A holiday, a weekend away, or simply a couple of minutes breathing space to get our thoughts in order. The difference it makes can be powerful. With the pace of life cranked up to 110 per cent nowadays, the challenge is finding time to relax. But just because it’s not obvious doesn’t mean that we can forget to seek it. Though I can’t promise that a trip to the Maldives is on the cards, the space you’re craving is there if you’re willing to take it. It will make a world of difference.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

I suspect that you might get a little tired of hearing me tell you the same thing this week. No one likes repetition - but I’m afraid there’s not a whole lot I can do about that. The universe has a simple message for you and it’s being rather emphatic about it. My job is to relay it to you. With Venus changing signs, your need to control a situation (that has been the source of great stress), is less than you think. Save your energy. Instead, be alert to opportunit­ies. Your big chance will present itself. Discover priceless informatio­n that can create the changes you need, call 1900 959 005

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

Nothing is impossible and no rule is absolute. Even when it seems as if all hope is lost and every avenue exhausted, life has the capacity to surprise us. Doors once closed can reopen, and once-in-a-lifetime opportunit­ies do, sometimes, come round twice. The universe believes in second chances and, in special circumstan­ces, it’s prepared to go out of its way to present you with the necessary opportunit­ies. Keep your eyes peeled for a sign. It might not seem like much, but the potential is extraordin­ary. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

The traditiona­l Libran image is, as I’m sure you know, a pair of scales. The idea, is that you are pre-occupied with fairness - and that if someone needs to make a call in a difficult situation, your judgement can be called upon. So why does life often feel so unfair? Why does it seem, for all your impartiali­ty and good behaviour, that you’re rewarded with piety rather than prosperity? Life is tempting you to tip the scales. Go far enough to redress the balance, and you’ll feel unburdened at last. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Ah! That’s better! Following Jupiter’s encouragin­g link with your traditiona­l ruler Saturn, you’re beginning to feel more in control. Recently, it seems as if life has swept you along with little or no regard for your feelings. Try as you might, you’ve been unable to effect a single change. Buffeted this way, thrown that, you’ve been left feeling dizzy and confused. Yet, although the tide may not yet have turned completely, you’re well on your way back to normality. Things are looking up. Calling your forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you make. Call 1900 959 005.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

I suspect I raised an eyebrow or two in the astrologic­al community yesterday when I counselled you to apply sound, reasoned logic. Stereotypi­cally, Cancerians are not the most logical of people. You’re much more emotionall­y intuitive and instinctua­l. But no one’s black and white. You’re capable of using logic too. You wouldn’t have got this far without it. But it’s understand­able that you fall back on what comes most naturally when you’re under stress. Fortunatel­y, there’s little to fear on that count today.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

People feel strongly about ventriloqu­ists. Some suspend their disbelief with amazement as they watch a dummy ‘speak’ in a myriad of accents. For others, it’s the stuff of nightmares. They’ve seen enough horror films to know that voice-throwing antics never end well. Could this fear come from something closer to home? We all know people who seem to be able to influence others easily. Being cajoled into saying things you don’t really mean leaves you feeling hellish. Don’t be easily swayed today.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

There are two types of people in our worlds: the people we know, and the people we love. Perhaps that seems like an oversimpli­fication. After all, in some cases we also love the people we know. But we put up barriers that stop us ever completely knowing the people we love and, simultaneo­usly, stop them from seeing every part of us. What if, when everything is revealed, we don’t love them any more? Or, worse, they don’t love us? Be brave enough to break down some of those walls, today.
