Sagittariu­s

November 23 – December 21

There are days, this week, when you feel really pleased with yourself. Nothing wrong with that! Even so, if you are able to keep up the forward motion, even more can be achieved. There is a sparkle about you that is very attractive. Get out and about and share it! In a lucky week, expect some good news. This could be a windfall of some kind. Your Luck: Keep an open mind and enjoy the foresight that comes with the weekend’s New Moon.

Aries

March 21 – April 20

A very exciting week sees you bounding ahead. When enthusiasm hits you it is hard to think of anything else. Certainly a one-track mind can bring about real change. Although this starts at home it gradually filters out to all areas of your life. The weekend may see a decision that will bring more stability and comfort. If the decision is yours, make sure that it is absolutely right as it will last for some time. Your Luck: Enjoy being fully in charge.

Leo

July 23 – August 23

An excess of nerves and energy this week can cause a few squabbles if not controlled. Channel all this into work and see how much progress you can make! A loved one seems a bit demanding but are they really? Maybe there has been some element of ‘taking for granted’? Take it easy if making decisions about travelling somewhere new. There could be a few delays and hiccups. Your Luck: If visiting friends, be sure the time is right for them.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 20

This appears to be one of those weeks when you are jumping around from one thing to another. It is a short phase but can be nerve-jangling. Stay with people that calm you. Relatives are a great source of informatio­n. Finances are highlighte­d. Now this can be good or not so good depending on your spending habits. There is an element of luck, however. This could be worth noting. Your Luck: Remember to keep hold of your sense of humour!

Taurus

April 21 – May 21

A dynamic, creative streak runs ahead of you right through this week and stirs up forgotten talents. You may already have decided to make some domestic changes and find that the same ideas can be applied at work. Flashes of romance at the weekend help you build on an existing relationsh­ip. Choose your words carefully and they can bring long-term happiness. You’re already feeling brave. Your Luck: Emotions are high, especially at the weekend.

Virgo

August 24 – September 23

Keeping calm and seeing things for what they really are is a gift. You have it and need, now, to put it to full use. There are no difficult puzzles in your current situation. Just be yourself and let others show their true worth. Disappoint­ed? You decide that something is not as important as you thought. Why would you not take a great opportunit­y? You know how brave you can be but it is your decision. Your Luck: The New Moon at the weekend gives you room for optimism.

Aquarius

January 21 – February 19

A lot of activity this week seems to be taking your mind from someone who is making an impression on you. Are you trying to ignore this? It probably won’t go away until you say your piece! Plans for the weekend need to include a quiet, maybe outdoor, activity. At the moment you have the chance of a new romance. Think carefully before refusing an invitation. Your Luck: Prepare to be more adventurou­s by arranging something new next week.

Gemini

May 22 – June 21

So much to do and so little time to do it? Get your priorities right and you will glide through tasks. The emphasis midweek is on a friendship that needs more attention to keep going, let alone grow! An idea from a work colleague at first seems boring, but watch this space! Be sure to be in the right place with the right people when emotions run high. It would be easy to lose your temper! Your Luck: Weekend forays can bring up some strange encounters.

Libra

September 24 – October 23

In your own gracious way you will refuse to compromise this week. Others may not be used to your more direct approach but they will adjust. The important thing at the moment is for you to realise your full potential. Love is on your mind but it may have to wait. Getting together with someone brings romance but you will need patience if it is to reach its potential. Your Luck: Wishful thinking just won’t do. You need to let your thoughts be clear.

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

Emotions run high this week but most of them are really good. You sometimes feel a bit overwhelme­d by snap comments from others. The thing to realise is that this is just a wave of the past that is ebbing away. Enjoy the moments that please you for they contain very happy memories. The possibilit­y of disruption­s in travel and other forays is likely to put you off moving too far from base this weekend. Your Luck: What is wrong with being a homebody?

Cancer

June 22 – July 22

Instead of sticking with your usual approaches, try something new. Being a an observer and seeing how others behave can give you a vital idea. Sometimes being romantic can give you wobbles but it is essential at the weekend. Showing how you feel is the way to get a good reaction. Stay sharp and avoid those who you think might annoy you! Keep your passions for romance and not for agitation. Your Luck: A gift to a friend says so much to them.
