YOUR STARS

The ancient myths tell stories about Cupid’s aim going awry and his arrows striking unintended targets, or even being used to inspire yearning for things we really ought to avoid. As Venus begins to move forward today, will the arrows of love fly true? It’s not quite that simple. Venus’ influence is returning to ‘normal’ - whatever that means! Given the heart’s propensity for mischief, we can’t rest too easy! But we can expect kindness and creativity to grow where it has been lacking.

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Philosophers and theologians love nothing more than mulling things over and discussing the intricacies of how to distinguish ‘right’ from ‘wrong’. Eventually though, they all conclude the same thing. Very little can be reduced to black and white, good and bad, right and wrong. Our world is made of a billion shades of grey. So why, when so many brilliant minds have come to the same conclusion, do we still see our own situations in binaries? Be cautious about jumping to a conclusion today. What does your heart desire and can you achieve it? Call 1300 017 319.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

The more successful one area of your life becomes, the more you grow aware of the potential for things to go wrong somewhere else in your world. Does one affect the other? Or is it that, on the scales of destiny, when one goes up another must go down? No! This is nothing more than your anxieties speaking. The movement of Venus, as it begins to move forwards today, brings a clear reminder that success in one field does not prevent it in another. It’s time to have more faith. What does your heart desire and can you achieve it? Call 1300 017 319.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

Why haven’t you got your feet up? Why aren’t you relaxing with a cuppa on the sofa? Is someone piling the pressure on? Or are you dragging yourself over the coals for something you’ve done? Could you be misinterpreting a casual deadline for a hard and fast demand? Much of the pressure you’re experiencing is self-inflicted. Happily that also means you have the power to release yourself from it. And, as Venus starts to move forwards, that’s exactly what you should do!

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

A court case can’t be judged by a talent show judge. Even if the defendant goes through hair and makeup and presents themselves in their best light, there’s much more to be considered than their performance. Some things can be judged lightly, whilst others deserve to be treated with great consideration. As your ruler, Venus, begins to move forwards today, you’re confronted with a situation that requires wholehearted focus. If you give it the respect it deserves you’ll ensure a fair outcome. View your challenges in a new light and overcome them. Call 1300 017 319.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

Some people love wheeling and dealing. They love nothing more than a good barter and are naturally good at buying and selling. Other folk shy away from any kind of discussion over prices and terms; they find such conversations challenging. No matter which category you normally position yourself in, Venus’ change of direction brings you bargaining power. If you’ve been politely waiting for a signal before sharing your opinions, your wait is over. You have more influence than you think.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

Even top Michelin-starred restaurants don’t have state-of-theart kitchens. Although the front of house might look like a designer’s dream come true, behind the scenes, it’s a practical, working kitchen. As long as it’s clean as a whistle, we don’t need it to look special. In your life now, there’s a need to look at what’s happening behind a story or a situation. As Venus moves forward it brings the confidence to ask much needed questions. The answers will help you make a key decision.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

‘Smile, it might never happen’. That’s the kind of unhelpful comment that no one ever needs to hear. Why does anyone ever bother to advise putting on a brave face and smiling through the pain… as though that will, in some way, hasten our happiness? Doesn’t pretending to be happy risk perpetuating unhappiness? If no one knows that you’re struggling, overburdened or simply need a friendly face to talk to, how can they offer help? Don’t be afraid to wear your heart on your sleeve today. Will the dream you’re chasing come true? Find out! Call 1300 017 319.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

It wasn’t long ago that wristwatches were the most complicated equipment we possessed. Nowadays, we strap ourselves to gadgets that tell us how many steps we’ve taken, and are permanently attached to our phones. When it comes to understanding the functions of these devices, we’re a bit bewildered. People are similarly bewildering. As Venus, your ruler, moves forward, you’re about to understand how something works. This will assist both your material and your emotional world. Will the dream you’re chasing come true? Find out! Call 1300 017 319.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Are human beings intrinsically good? Are we kind, generous, loving and selfless? Or, if we scratch beneath the surface, would we find long-harboured grudges, and intricate plots to undermine one another? Catch us in a good mood and most of us would swear to the former. In a bad mood, however… What’s interesting, is that we tend to see what we’re feeling reflected in the world around us. If you’ve got suspicions about a certain person, ask yourself what they’re based on.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

As awareness of the problems facing our planet increases, manufacturers have understood that the word ‘natural’ is a consumer buzzword that will increase their sales. Sadly, this leads to some unprincipled companies using unnatural ways to make it look as if their products are more ecologically-friendly than they are. Yet what’s ‘natural’ is open to interpretation. As Venus moves forward, you can find a ‘natural’ way to communicate with someone you’ve been meaning to share something important with. Make the most of your opportunities. For inspiring news, call 1300 017 319.

OCT 24 - NOV 22

As you grow more aware of someone’s behaviour you’re feeling more confused. Why are they being so provocative? Since we’re uncomfortable when we don’t understand something, we try to find explanations. We use our own experience of life to try to work out why someone is doing what they’re doing. Without being aware of our motives, we find ways to justify their actions because it makes us more secure. As Venus turns direct, you can free yourself from a judgment you’ve made.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

As Venus begins to move forward you’re feeling more tempted to throw caution to the wind. Although Pisceans aren’t averse to taking a risk or two, you often prefer to size things up before jumping in at the deep end. Yet, your intuition is so powerful now that what might normally feel like a stab in the dark is based on more than just a sense of what’s right; you’re pulling on information from all sorts of different places and levels. Trust that the process you’re embarking on is right.
