YOUR STARS

This weekend the Sun follows Venus into Aquarius, while intelligent Mercury makes an encouraging angle with dreamy Neptune. Earlier this week, we talked about visualising goals and taking steps towards their completion. Now there’s a chance to revisit something we’ve dismissed as fanciful. Contained somewhere within an abandoned idea lies a seed of ingenuity. It’s going to take resourcefulness and initiative, but with the current cosmic support, a discarded dream can begin to become a reality. Teletopia. Max call cost $1.32 per minute, including GST.

ARIES MAR 21 APR 20

Robin Hood’s outlaw band were famously merry. I’ve spent many a winter not far from Sherwood Forest, and it would be miserable sleeping outside at this time of year. So, unless Robin was as good a comedian as he was an archer, there must have been something that kept their spirits up. Perhaps it was the camaraderie found in being united behind a worthy cause. As the Sun follows Venus’ example by changing signs this weekend, you too can benefit from such a feeling.

You’re finding it difficult both to do what you want to do, and to do what you need to do. Help! What you can do, though, is what somebody close to you wants you to do. And, if you manage to find the poise to do that kindness and respect you’ll find that this frustrating feeling of powerlessness shifts. Compromising might not be your preferred style, but it can be useful to moderate your attitude sometimes. Your efforts to assist someone will be rewarded with future success.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

Though you struggle to admit it, you have many talents. So, it’s worth looking at what you feel so unqualified to deal with and reassessing your skillset. It’s more likely than you think that you have the capabilities to deal with what is making you feel so insecure. Deep down, you know that you can do it. You might have to focus, dig deep and access your powers of competency and your intellect. But you have time to practise your skills. Try your best. It will feel empowering.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

We know it’s impossible to make an omelette without breaking eggs. But what if you’re counting on the chickens that, if nature had had its way, would have hatched? It’s always a dilemma deciding whether to save or spend. Sometimes we get back from the shops and wonder why we bought such-and-such. Another time, we scrabble around to find the cheapest version on the market only to realise that it was a false economy. You, though, are making a wise investment.

You’re being given a different perspective on someone you’ve been working closely alongside. Since it doesn’t fit the idea that you had of them or their abilities, this isn’t going to be easy. But, the lesson you’re learning is important, and it will help you develop your skills in how you relate to other people. You can use the weekend to absorb all the information you’ve received. As you reach a new understanding everything will appear brighter. You’re gaining momentum and power.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

A drop of kindness can go a long way, while an ocean of it tends to stay in the same place. People are drawn towards kindness wherever it may be and in whatever form it takes. As the Sun follows Venus into Aquarius, you’re inclined to show off the most generous side of you. But, before you make your big altruistic gesture this weekend, it’s worth considering taking a more alternative approach. It involves being just a little kinder and more accommodating. That’s all.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

‘Would you like to swing on a star? Carry moonbeams home in a jar?’ these delightful lyrics would be the perfect background song to your weekend. The Sun is joining Venus in your sign. So it’s a question of which star you’re going to swing on and where you’re going to look for moonbeams. The cosmic weather forecast is for clear skies and bright light that will shine on you and those you love. Take advantage: indulge yourself and your dearest by doing what you love best.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

When kids get into arguments adults try to resolve the problem peacefully. Children and young people have flexible emotions and can be cajoled into making healthy, reasonable compromises. But as we get older, we become more entrenched in our emotional response… and we are more likely to hold a grudge. When adults develop a sense of wonder they can affect the moods of those around them. You have the ability to diffuse a difficult situation this weekend.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

I started wearing glasses when I was little. As I aged, my eyes improved until I no longer needed them. Although I remember being pleased, it took a while to get used to being without them. They’d become such a part of my self-image that I felt I had lost part of my identity. Now I need them again so am reacquainted with the irritation of steamed up lenses! I was viewing my spectacles through rose-tinted spectacles! Don’t pine for the past when your future is full of promise.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Is your subconscious making the right connections and drawing the right conclusions, or are you projecting a past experience on to a current situation and wrongly diagnosing someone’s attitude. If the overwhelming feeling is one of disappointment, it’s worth having a look at the reasons behind the sentiment. Your only foe this weekend will be your own tendency towards self-doubt. Instead, trust in yourself and in the world’s good nature. You’ll find that you’re very well supported.
