YOUR STARS

ARIES

If Friday the 13th really affected the level of good fortune available, surely calendar makers would override the date. We could have ‘Friday almost the 14th’, and be rid of this superstitious day once and for all. While we’re at it, the use of ladders could be banned and cautionary advice about the use of salt could be promoted - to prevent any from being spilt. As for today, just remember that luck is what you make it. Following the Jupiter/pluto link, you can make yours very positive indeed. Need support? What’s the best way to plan ahead? Call 1300 017 319.

MAR 21 - APR 20 LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

Intimidation is a terrible thing. It would be wonderful if we could relegate it to history, but we don’t have to look far to see it exhibited by people who should be setting a good example. Sometimes, we even bully and intimidate ourselves. We tear ourselves down over the tiniest of mistakes. Where, in your world, are you fretting about something that doesn’t merit your concern? Have faith in yourself and in your abilities - and know that this weekend, the cosmos is doing all it can to support you. Feeling stressed and overloaded? Find a better way to cope.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

Why is Friday the 13th supposed to be unlucky for some folk and lucky for others? How are we supposed to know what to do to be one of the people who comes out on top? Following Jupiter’s powerful link with Pluto, are you entitled to be a member of the luckier group? The cosmos is enabling you to look at a problematic situation with new perspective this weekend. If you’re able to view what’s happening, whether you like it or not, with a positive attitude, you’ll find that luck is on your side. Unsure about the direction you’re heading in. Call 1300 017 319.

Since luck always comes with an element of risk, even people who are lucky enough to be born into lives of luxury have challenges to deal with. Although Friday the 13th is considered to be ‘unlucky’, this year it would be more accurate to call it ‘riskier’. And the greater the risk, the greater the reward. As Mars turns direct this weekend, this isn’t the time for timid inaction. The New Moon indicates that optimistic steps forwards will lead to better more enriched lives.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

We often overlook our abilities and sell ourselves short. Like dissatisfied restaurant reviewers, we turn our attention to the aspects of our personalities that ‘could be improved’; our faults are more apparent than the subtle, well-balanced flavours. It may be Friday the 13th, but there’s no excuse for ignoring your assets. When you value yourself, the rest of the world shows its appreciation. This weekend brings a reminder of how much you’ve enabled someone. You deserve the praise.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

No one ever inhales a first cigarette and thinks how delicious it tastes. It takes commitment to become a smoker. That’s one of the reasons why it’s a challenging habit to drop. When we make the effort to acquire a taste for something, it means more to us than tastes that naturally appeal to us. You’ve discovered that something you learned to like isn’t as fun (or as good for you) as you thought it would be. When this weekend brings the chance to free yourself from a burden, take it.

Your forecast contains valuable guidance.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

Some educationalists like to categorise people into ‘left-brain’ or ‘right-brain’ thinkers. The former, they say, have an inclination for maths and science, numbers and logic; whereas the latter are lateral, creative thinkers, drawn towards art and literature. I can’t believe such distinctions help anyone. Surely we should just nurture people where they struggle and encourage their strengths? Capricorns are reputed to be pragmatic… which is all the more reason to follow your heart today. When it all feels ‘too much’ and you need support, call 1300 017 319.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

Humour is a very personal thing. What makes one person laugh may leave others cold. Sometimes, the very fact that someone isn’t amused is what makes a situation funny. Unless, of course, that person happens to be you. In which case, it’s not even slightly amusing. It’s not that you’re unable to laugh at yourself; it’s that you’re dealing with a situation that’s far from humorous. Yet, if you’re able to stand back and look at it afresh this weekend, you’ll find reasons to smile.

If you’re overwhelmed there’s a way forward.

Call 1300 017 319.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

In order to access the abundant, infinite amount of love that abounds, we just need to believe that it exists. That’s as true on Friday the 13th as it is on any other day of the year. You have Venus, your ruling planet, in your sign. And, despite the day-today challenges of life, following the powerful Jupiter/pluto link, you’re being gifted by a kindly cosmos. This could be your lucky day. With an open-hearted, and optimistic approach, a wearisome situation can be transformed into a positive.

Ease your troubles. Find the support you need. Call 1300 017 319.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

If everything happens for a reason, why isn’t life filled with happy endings? Why is there so much stress and strife? Yet these terms are more subjective than they first appear. What seems problematic to me might sound easy to you, and vice versa. Yet, one thing that’s beyond all doubt is the effect of having a positive attitude. This weekend, following the Jupiter and Pluto conjunction, you can see beyond the difficulty that has been overshadowing you… and have some fun.

Anxious? Call to hear your in-depth, four minute forecast 1300 017 319.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

‘Things may come and things may go, but this is one thing you ought to know. It ain’t what you do, it’s the way that you do it’. This lyric, sung so beautifully by the great Ella Fitzgerald, particularly resonates with sensitive Cancerians. You know better than most that the way you approach a situation (or a person) hugely impacts the results. Just because a recent event hasn’t turned out as you’d hoped is no reason to lose confidence. This weekend brings the reassurance you need to believe in yourself. Worried? Call to hear your in-depth, four minute forecast: 1300 017 319.

SCORPIO

No way. You can’t do that. Not under any circumstances. Well… not unless it’s a special Friday; in which case there might be a clause that enables you to go ahead with a plan. Oh. Of course, this is one of those days. You’ve been adhering to a selfimposed psychological restriction that has nothing to do with physical self-distancing. It’s been preventing you from creatively exploring a new idea. This weekend brings the chance to metaphorically branch out into new, exciting territory. Uncertain?

OCT 24 - NOV 22

PISCES

According to mathematicians who have studied biblical references about its construction, Noah’s Ark would have been large enough to have room for a pair of every animals living at the time of the great flood. Does that mean that every word of the vast tome is true? Even though that’s not a conclusion we can draw, it’s an interesting idea. Whatever your own views on spirituality, this weekend’s events will give you good reason to believe in the possibility of divine intervention.
