Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Who loves you, baby? You’re about to find out. Progress at work is surprising and satisfying. Just remember to thank those who have helped you! In an emotional week your feelings for others can become acute and even uncomforta­ble. If you need to get something off your chest, this is a good time. Changes can make us all tetchy. You’re not alone! Your Luck: Living in the present gives a better indication of the future than always looking back or forward.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Make this a chillout week if possible. Even one day spent relaxing brings everything into focus. Answers may not come instantly but come they will. Be patient. A shift in your future path needs some thought. Avoid knee-jerk reactions! Cash flow can be up and down. It’s crucial now to get some kind of budget going that you can stick to easily. Your Luck: A practical week in prospect sees you getting all your ducks in a row and feeling much more positive.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Romance and close friendship­s thrive at the moment. Want to build on a new-found way forward? Working closely with others means real progress. However, anyone who tries to stop your progress with a sob story should be viewed with suspicion. Do they pull out the weak act whenever you want to pull away? Kind-hearted as you are, this is time to consider yourself. Your Luck: Double-check what others tell you, especially on a social or personal issue.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Feeling a little unbalanced? Could it be the effects of a festive diet or an emotional issue? Just to cover all bases consider your gut bacteria (live yogurt anyone?) and emotional wellbeing. Is there something that you want to get off your chest? Acting differentl­y can make others back away from you. Try to keep the status quo with long-term relationsh­ips. Your Luck: Be the best that you can be. Is someone looking at you with a view to promotion?

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Trying to do everything and trying to please everyone this week? Step back a bit and give yourself some breathing space! One step at a time may seem tedious but you know it works. Keep hold of what is good in your life, but be prepared to jettison any outdated or negative elements. You may decide to change your image or your determinat­ion. Your Luck: Others have many ideas about where you should be heading. Don’t be pushed into a quick decision.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Love and life based around the home sees the best progress. Changing your surroundin­gs puts a spring in your step. It also shows those close that you’re serious about moving forward. The people around you this week seem a bit wishywashy. Maybe they’re not as sure as you are that they’re going in the right direction? Any guidance you give needs to be well researched. Your Luck: Poor advice given to someone could come back to bite you, so be very careful.

Aries March 21 – April 20

A more dynamic week. With the festivitie­s over your mind is now clear to move forward on other matters. At a great moment for communicat­ing, get those important conversati­ons going about the future. A partner may be waiting for a decision from you that is, maybe, long overdue. Doing the honest and simple thing now lifts a weight from your emotional shoulders. Your Luck: Spread a little lightness and happiness by simply being yourself. Dust off that optimism!

Leo July 23 – August 23

This may not be a high-energy week. Even so it does give the chance for you to communicat­e. Get those chats going about what comes next. Working with others and letting some things just fall into place seems good too. Be willing to let go of anything or anyone who has proved to be an emotional drain on your soul. Do you really need to prove yourself? Who is saying that? Your Luck: A fresh approach can sometimes mean leaving behind old ideas.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

Show a confident face at work and a gentle one in the home. Working with partners should run smoothly as long as you do not try to rush someone into a decision. Changes are afoot for many and, if you look carefully, you will see it is so. Sure, it is unsettling. Still, you are not alone in any confusion! Just keep to the tried and tested for a while. Your Luck: A slow move forward emotionall­y is better than a rush into even more confusion!

Taurus April 21 – May 21

A quick look back at last year could make you realise something. Have you been taking on more than you can cope with? You don’t want to lose the balance between work and home, do you? Putting in place a routine now (I know you don’t like that word!) can make all the difference. Avoid stress and develop warm relationsh­ips. Now, is that feeling better? Your Luck: No large leaps of faith are needed. What matters now is how you approach others.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Be aware that it will be tempting, this week, to lose impetus. Easily distracted, it’s possible to let important matters slip. Remember that small decisions can save you from having to make enormous ones later on. A bit of a juggling act is needed here. When others ask for your help, make them part of the solution. Working it out together also makes them stronger. Your Luck: Give others more confidence in themselves by giving them a looser run of chain.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Getting to grips with your finances now can save a lot of time and stress in the near future. Just getting all of your ducks in a row brings satisfacti­on. Don’t allow anyone to put pressure on you to make a fast decision. Tell them that when you are ready they will be told so. At home, getting close to others means opening up. This can be emotional but, of course, that is natural. Your Luck: A smile and a tear are fine, really. You should just aim to keep a balance.
