Horoscopes

Capricorn December 24 – January 22

At this time of the year you want to be close to loved ones. Is there someone who you have not seen for some time? Just a loving message in a card can make all the difference. Reaching out to others will always feed your soul even when it is not always successful. How will you know if you don’t try? Look behind you for approaching love. Your Luck: Use your words and finances carefully.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Is the festive spirit and general silliness leaving you cold? Maybe that is because you have not tied up loose ends from work or you prefer to take a more serious attitude to the season. Even so, give yourself permission for a little celebration. Friends and relatives are only too willing to give you a hand with that! Your Luck: A New Moon gives the hope of a fresh start.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Having gone through a very busy and somewhat fraught time you are now being told to relax. This is not so easy, is it? It will take a few days to get out of that working mode and into a fun one. Once you do, however, it is possibly the best time for fun in ages. Nose been to the grindstone? Look up to the stars and dream! Your Luck: Make a point of socialising with colleagues.

Aquarius January 23 – February 19

Be warm and chatty to everyone this week, especially if you are shopping. That sparkle in your eyes can be attractive you know! Make this the time that you give others a second chance or at least the benefit of the doubt. At no time should your sense of fun be allowed to desert you! Be prepared to travel to make the most of this period. Your Luck: Those who are not attached may decide to spend the holiday somewhere new and adventurous.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

A quiet start to the week quickly gains pace as you realise how much there is to do. Don’t panic! There is help around, especially from younger people. Just ask for it. Working with others is extra fun at the weekend, be it wrapping presents or choosing food. Someone who you have not seen for some time may turn up. Try not to be suspicious. Your Luck: As Saturn continues to influence your path in life it can be a real learning curve.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Although you seek perfection, this is not always possible. However you do need something to strive for and look forward to. Why wait until the New Year to plan a holiday or trip? Just wait until after the festivities to decide who to take with you! Nothing will stop you thinking ahead as the New Moon throws a light on your home life. If you want changes, make finances secure first. Your Luck: Ups and downs may have jangled your nerves.

Pisces Feburary 20 – March 20

Blowing hot and cold about the festivities? Accept invitations or give some yourself. Not in the mood? Well, consider how happy your company will make others. Want to see smiling faces? Sometimes you forget what good company you can be! Holidays are for children? So, bring out your inner child and play. Mates at work tend to be your ‘second family’. Your Luck: Be prepared to blend home and work as never before.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

A situation that you faced in the past now arises for a close friend or relative. Try to think back before reacting. Aim to bring a more light-hearted aspect to your relationships as the holiday approaches. When it comes to romance, being too stiff about something could stop love from thriving. Relax and give in to your sense of fun. Your Luck: This may not feel quite the time, but there is a need to think in the longer term about your partnerships.

Scorpio October 24 – November 21

Working on a light-hearted plan with others is satisfying. Being at the heart of things suits you only too well. Someone who was a great source of support when you were younger now needs some attention. Is it time to repay all that kindness? Get everyone you can involved in any festive get-togethers. With Mercury retrograde, watch out for glitches in finances and when choosing presents. Your Luck: Take your time and keep possessions close.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Open your eyes to the love around you. In an optimistic and exciting week you will get closer to a very special person. Sharing the plotting and planning of a festive gathering or just looking forward to one? This and the spirit of giving will bring you closer together. Be sure to live in the moment to make the most of this special time. Your Luck: The New Moon as this week begins throws a spotlight on your career and colleagues.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Love and compassion are not the same. Be spontaneous this week and give freely of both. In questioning your reasons you could be overthinking and creating a problem that is not there. Someone who has been seeking your company may now succeed and show their interest. Never say never! Look ahead to boost your wellbeing, health and surroundings in the New Year. Your Luck: Saturn is urging you to be practical and straightforward.

Sagittarius November 23 – December 21

Have you been working hard or just taking life too seriously? Well, this is the best time of the year to have the excuse to let your hair down and relax! Take the lead from someone close and dip your toes into some socially sparkling waters. Try something new even if it does seem rather silly! Keep an eye on health in both a personal sense and in finances.

Your Luck: The chance to make some money in the New Year needs you to be eagle-eyed.
