Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Charm and the incentive to progress are your driving points this week. Home and love life become even more important. Travel with someone special can build happy and longterm memories. Relaxation becomes routine as a more ‘laid back’ attitude is adopted. If you need help from your boss or someone else you look up to, don’t be shy. Just asking for what you need is the best approach. Your Luck: Honesty is something busy people appreciate.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Get that social life on track by organising things well in advance. What have you missed out on over the last year because you didn’t pay enough attention to your diary? Your romantic life could depend on getting dates right. Will you make a bigger commitment to your partner? Decide to move on and find a new love? Anything could happen this week and you are ready for it. Your Luck: Start this week by communicat­ing your intentions.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Maybe you’ve been working too hard or occupied with your own interests? Little things mean a lot as you seek to get a balance in your home and love life. What you consider a trifle your partner may see as a big deal. Look for slow progress at work rather than jumps ahead. Hiccups with your love life can be avoided in the short term. What are the longerterm prospects? Your Luck: Be honest with yourself and others, even if it means change.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Are you frustrated with not meeting your kind of people? A need for kindred souls now leads you to become a leader rather than a helper. Reaching out to others and forming a social group could be the way forward. It will put you in the limelight but at the same time be fun. A long overdue conversati­on can finally be had. Delaying this has given you the time to gather your thoughts. Your Luck: Don’t be distracted for too long. You have work to do!

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Maybe it is a quieter week where work is concerned. I hope so, because your attention is needed on the romance front. Giving presents never makes up for giving time to a loved one. A long-term friendship may come to an end as others move on. This leaves a gap not easily filled. Working at partnershi­ps of any kind can be boring to you. It can be even harder when the other party does not respond. Maybe they can’t? Your Luck: Be forward thinking.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

A lovely week for your love life coincides with a lack of energy and incentive. This makes it great for those cosy chats and quiet walks. I’ll be easy to become irritated with youngsters who have not yet learnt life’s basics. Try to be helpful and practical. You may not want to fall out with someone over money but they need reminding of their promises or place. Your Luck: Whereas charm will work better than threats, a practical approach is best.

Scorpio October 24 - November 22

This week brings the chance to start something new and potentiall­y exciting. Working with others is now the key to success for you. When it comes to teamwork you take a lot of beating! Enlist the help of someone who needs the boost of confidence that only ‘doing’ can provide. Outdoor fun, music and picnics are on the agenda this week. Your Luck: Petty squabbles with a relative must be forgotten. Now!

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Any misunderst­andings with your partner seem to melt away as the week progresses. See what can be done with a little give and take? An improving financial situation perks up your prospects, although a bit of patience is needed. Finances may still stop you from having as much fun as you would like. Try not to start stamping your feet when things do not go according to plan. Your Luck: Plot and plan away but have patience too!

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Firing away on all fronts, a combinatio­n of enthusiasm and ambition sees you shooting ahead. In a good social period you will still need to be a little choosy. Wasting time on interests you have outgrown will not leave time to develop new ones. A few surprises at the weekend amaze but do not ‘throw’ you. Be willing to forgive and forget someone’s mistake without saying ‘I told you so!’ Your Luck: Blow your own trumpet for attention.

Sagittariu­s November 23 - December 21

When wanting something, don’t be afraid to go to the top. Sending an email can save frustratin­g phone calls. Consider involving the press if you get a rebuff. Organising your life properly gives more time for romance and, even if you deny it, this is needed. Any money squabbles can be delayed if you wish by stating the obvious. A way forward can be found if others are willing. Your Luck: Someone is feeling a bit sour. Their loss!

Aries March 21 – April 20

A loved one needs your attention. Comments that you make could either boost or dent their confidence. This is a week of listening and learning. A big decision may be delayed whilst you gather informatio­n. Small details are important and it is crucial that these are taken account of, especially with finances. Be fun and spontaneou­s to boost your love life, but avoid frivolity when it comes to money. Your Luck: A wise decision shows you in a good light.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Following up on a good idea takes a bit of effort. If you are short of time at the moment, getting some help is well worthwhile. Cash flow should be good but look ahead to a major bill. This could mean extra work but will be appreciate­d at home. Romance blooms when your partner feels valued. Face comments and situations head on. Beat around the bush and you will lose both time and respect. Your Luck: Some things just have to be tackled!
