YOUR STARS

- WITH OSCAR CAINER WWW.CAINER.COM

Venus conjuncts Jupiter today. If you were a character in Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland, this is the equivalent of being given a cake called ‘Eat me’. If your heart resembles a balloon, this represents a helium canister. But, before we all get carried away, it’s worth pointing out that Alice also had a ‘Drink me’ potion that helped her come back to the right size. And we all know what happens to balloons if they’re over-filled with air. Today, if your heart swells with joy, enjoy it – just watch that it doesn’t over inflate! Teletopia.

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Just tagging along and going with the flow is not in your nature. When you care about something, you invest yourself emotionall­y, and give it your all. You’re a passionate person who understand­s that success usually correlates to effort. Yet, sometimes, standing back, and allowing others to make the running, is a wise and effective way of moving things forward. Success is yours for the taking now – as long as you’re impartial enough to realise where your efforts need to be directed.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

It’s time to give yourself some time to think. Not just a thought, grabbed as you rush about your day, but a pause for reflection. Our lives are so busy that we spend almost no time at all thinking about why we’re doing what we’re doing. We give ourselves little opportunit­y to reassess, and thus make considered decisions. Just allowing yourself a real moment of reflection today, will give you the insight you need to lighten your load and move into a much more satisfying position.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

Venus conjuncts your ruler today. You only need a modicum of astrologic­al knowledge to know that this spells good news. But, just in case, and since Mercury’s in your sign, let’s play some word games. Fill in the blanks, or cross out the wrong word, and you’ll begin to get the picture. ‘The l_ve in your life is about to bl_ss_m’, ‘You’ll start to become more w _ _ lthy’, ‘Your generosity will/won’t be returned’. Even if you’re confused by what you’re seeing, your heart will understand. Be ready, as the planet of luck joins forces with the planet of love! Call 1900 959 005.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

Learning from life’s lessons helps us to become balanced people. And, it’s the hard knocks that teach us most. But, when you feel you’re facing a challengin­g situation, it’s easy to lose momentum – and be tempted to abandon a project or a relationsh­ip. Perhaps that’s why we find other people’s mistakes fascinatin­g. Watching how the rich and famous struggle teaches us a lot – without causing personal pain. Tactfully explaining where someone’s making a mistake will help you progress.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

You can’t restock your kitchen cupboards just by rememberin­g last week’s shopping list. Neither can you improve your fitness level by recollecti­ng the last time you enjoyed exercising. Those things are finished and in the past. Still, though, we spend time reliving old battles; holding on to our hurts and problems. You have an opportunit­y to let go of a resentment that no longer serves any purpose. Since you’re heading into a new, and exciting phase of your future – the timing is perfect.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

All you need to do, to achieve what you want to achieve, is to keep on keeping on. Just do what you need to do. It sounds so simple! But, we’re so easily distracted. The calls on our attention – via the media, and our hectic lives, are skilful and constant. It’s easy to forget what we want to focus on. Today, it would be worth your while to make time just for yourself. Something needs and deserves your full attention. If you concentrat­e your energy, you’ll see clearly what you need to do next.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

Dream though we might –the art of teleportat­ion remains fantasy. But, the ability to dematerial­ise, rather than sit in a traffic jam, would change more than our commuter habits. Every journey is physical. Whether it’s by foot, bus or plane, we can look at a map – and plot the route across land and sea. The map, though, gives little indication of what we can expect to encounter on the way. A plan you’ve made is worth pursuing – even if the reality is not what you’d expected.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

You have a specific target in mind. You’ve drawn back the bow, the arrow is poised, and the concept of missing is not an option: coming close simply won’t be good enough. This week, as the planet of luck links with your ruler, Venus, it brings the promise of happiness in your emotional life and financial gifts. That should be enough to steady your hand! If you can keep focused, and steady, you’ll realise that you have the skill to realise your goal. If you’re confident, nothing can stop you.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Even though our planet is packed with people, it’s not easy to remember that every one of them worries about what to do, and makes mistakes. We tend to think that we’re the only ones doing foolish things sometimes. But it’s beyond our capabiliti­es to always get it right. It’s hardly surprising that we live in a crazy world! If you can disentangl­e yourself enough to step back and look at the ridiculous situation you’re caught up in, you’ll find the perspectiv­e to reveal a working solution.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

With all the power and experience you have at your fingertips, you could be in a position of tremendous power. But, you’re smart enough to understand that power brings its problems. Yet, just because ruling the world is not your ultimate goal, you don’t need to hide your talents and skills. You can use them to extricate yourself from a challengin­g situation. This week’s Grand Trine suggests that you’re about to see exactly how to manifest a vital and wonderful change.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

You’re perfect just as you are. I know… it’s hard to hear! I daresay you have a list of reasons why you think this isn’t true. But, the mistakes you make, and the problems you create, are a natural part of being human. It’s easy to see fault in ourselves. Our limitation­s are sources of great frustratio­n. But how would it be if we saw each other and ourselves as perfect? Rather than being arrogant, it might create acceptance. Accept and forgive your imperfecti­ons, and today will be special.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Anton Chekhov wrote, ‘Don’t tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass’. This phrase is often used to explain the theory that a good writer should ‘show’ rather than ‘tell’, and it’s a technique that serves well in many settings. The greatest teachers don’t instruct, they open people to new ways of seeing, that help them to new understand­ing. As Venus and Jupiter conjunct today, you’re learning a valuable lesson. But I don’t need to tell you that. The cosmos will show you. Be ready, as the planet of luck joins forces with the planet of love! Call 1900 959 005.
