YOUR STARS

Mercury entered Virgo over the weekend, returning after a brief exit during its retrograde phase. It’s as if a visitor came to your home with a bottle of wine, but left their suitcases in the car. It’s hard for them to really enjoy their stay until they’v

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Before we can make something right, we need to see what’s wrong with it. We need to have experience­d the negative effects. That’s why we like to hide under metaphysic­al blankets, ignoring problems as long as possible. Looking at them doesn’t make us feel better. Putting them on the back burner gives us a sense of respite. But they never go away … they bubble in the background, eventually boiling over again. You can find the courage to tackle one today. It won’t be easy but it will be worthwhile.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

Where does the phrase ‘pecking order’ come from? If you’ve ever watched birds feeding, you know. The biggest, bossiest of our feathered friends get in first, while smaller, shyer ones tend to have to wait their turn. We’re all familiar with our place in the human pecking order - the work hierarchie­s where we report to a boss, who reports to theirs... and the social orders we are a part of. Where do you fit into the particular pecking order that you’re dealing with today? Rest assured, you’re at the top. Confused? Call to hear your unmissable in-depth, forecast: 1900 959 005.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

We often use a road as a metaphor for the future. We consider the twists and turns that lie ahead, the possible potholes, the unforeseen heavy traffic, and the times when we catch all the green lights. But the future is up in the air, out-of-the-blue. It catches us off-guard. And sometimes, our fixation on what we want to happen causes us to miss out on obvious possibilit­ies. An opportunit­y that you’d previously overlooked has exciting implicatio­ns for your immediate future. Don’t miss it this time. Confused?

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

People can be remarkably quick to point out our mistakes. When you’ve finished cleaning the windows, the first comment is often, ‘You’ve missed a bit!’ If you’ve carefully crafted some prose, someone will skim through it and find an extra comma or two. Why are we so ready to find fault with each other? It’s easy but it’s hardly a skill to be proud of. And, once you’ve spotted the flaws, it’s harder to praise the positive. It’s worth making the effort to be kind and generous today - it will make all the difference.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

Having a three-year-old is a good excuse to re-watch my favourite animated films. Now, though, I can appreciate the wit and storytelli­ng from a different perspectiv­e. But they also serve as a reminder of how much society has changed - in many ways for the better. Modern classics can often be every bit as good, without the cultural stereotypi­ng found in earlier movies. As Mercury rejoins your sign today, it’s time to appreciate how far you’ve come, and celebrate the opportunit­ies that lie ahead.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

‘The sun ain’t gonna shine any more.’ sang The Walker Brothers. The lyrics weren’t meant to be taken literally of course, They were a striking metaphor for lost love. Actually, the sun is always gonna shine. It’s one of the few constants in our lives. It’s one of the things we can rely on no matter what else is happening. Right now things are feeling unsettled. You’re right, you don’t know what’s coming round the corner. But the sun’s shining brightly for you. It will light your way. Uncertain? Call to hear your unmissable in-depth, forecast: 1900 959 005.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

‘Everybody’s talking at me, I don’t hear a word they’re saying, only the echoes of my mind’ sang Harry Nilsson. Your ruler Mercury, now direct after slipping backwards through the sky for several weeks, changed signs at the weekend. It’s likely that you’re feeling swamped by people chattering and clattering. It’s time to have a sort through and a clear-out. If you listen carefully, you’ll hear the message hidden despite the interferen­ce. Something quite wonderful and very relevant is being communicat­ed.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

Jupiter remains in your sign for just a few more weeks. In the meantime, Mercury has moved into the same sector of the sky as Mars and the Sun. You may feel as if your head is in the clouds, but that’s not to say that you’re full of unrealisti­c ideas. On the contrary, a recent shift in perspectiv­e allows room for insight. The problems that you’ve been stuck in, and the possibilit­ies that seemed slim, are opening up to you. And when Jupiter does move on, it will only help to solidify these opportunit­ies.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

The gods felt quietly confident the day they created you. They stepped back from their handiwork and said: ‘This one’s special’. And they were right. They knew that they’d created someone who would go on to make a difference in the world. Someone who could be relied upon to be generous, inspired and inspiring. You’ve always known you’re not quite like other people - but, why would you want to be? Whilst others would flee before the challenge that’s now presenting, you’ll take it in your stride.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Have you ever been told to ‘stop being a lemming’? It’s good advice. No one wants to be a small furry creature that throws itself off cliffs because that’s what everyone else is doing! That may be an extreme example, but we’re all guilty of following the crowd. Sometimes it’s a relief to just go with the flow. This week, though, it’s important to be ruled by your head, not your heart. If you can evaluate each decision on its merits, and not rise to the bait, you’ll sail through any challenges.

OCT 24 - NOV 22

You’ve never been one to make a fuss. You’d much rather get on with a job than sit around, complainin­g about how tough it is and how you wish that this, or that, were different. Moaning never solves anything. But everyone needs help every now and then. And people aren’t mind-readers. You do such a good job of seeming to hold everything together that people can be forgiven for believing you. Don’t be afraid to ask for the help you need, you’ll be overwhelme­d by the generosity of the response.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

During the banking crisis, economies around the world faced an impossible decision. Did they pump huge amounts of newly created money into the system? Or work with what they had, and not create a debt they’d find almost impossible to repay? For some, printing huge amounts of extra money worked. But that doesn’t mean it was the right thing to do. Someone close to you has made questionab­le decisions in order to solve a problem. Though it might not be morally right, perhaps it’s the only way.
