Capricorn December 22 - January 20

This is the time of year when we are all forced to revise our finances. It is the run-up to the holiday period that can cause stress. Remember, though, that it is the thought that you put into your presents that matters. Showing others that you know and appreciate them is the great fun activity at this time of the year. A plant lasts longer than chocolates and a well-chosen word is never forgotten. Your Luck: Someone would rather have a small but personal gift.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Having created an emotional splash last week there are sure to be some ripples. it is good to feel in control and hopeful again. Inspiratio­n comes in the form of group activities, possibly connected with the holiday ahead. Cash is still likely to be a concern, so spend wisely. Looking for bargains? Don’t dismiss boot fairs and charity shops. Get on a bus to an affluent area for the best bargains! Your Luck: Use your imaginatio­n and sense of humour.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Partnershi­ps are showing more promise but you are expected to keep your side of an arrangemen­t. Being honest about your needs may not be the easiest way forward. Biting the bullet brings any bad feeling to a close. Insist on stepping forward and not even looking back. Being single-minded is sometimes the only way to really get out of a rut. Your Luck: You are so good with people that new friends soon make you forget negative responses.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

This week is a bit like being on a trampoline. Ups and downs can be both exciting and unexpected. It is all a matter of control, which, at the moment, doesn’t seem to be consistent. A bit of confusion sets in midweek when you could misunderst­and a comment or situation. It can be a frantic time. Taking yourself out of it for a few days is preferable to getting ‘het up’. Your Luck: You don’t need advice from others, you need time.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Highs and lows this week can make you feel confused. If someone is giving mixed messages you need to insist on a clear answer. This is a time of changes and unexpected ones at that! The more flexible you are emotionall­y, the less you will feel any bumps. If you don’t feel like a challenge, change direction. Surround yourself with people who want to move forward and get great plans going for the holidays. Your Luck: Clear your life of emotional clutter.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Knowing what you want from your life is a step in the right direction. This week you are more concerned with how to begin getting there. Although there is an urge to leap forward, one step at a time will be more successful. This gives the chance to adjust your path as you go. It is hard when you can see your goal but it still seems a way off. There are better ways than just rushing down the first path you come to. Your Luck: Try not to be impatient.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Hold on to your time, money and sanity by taking charge. Any situation can be turned to your advantage if you are determined enough. Is there any reason why you should take second best? Is there any reason why you should wait for someone else to make a decision? Often too modest, you let others go ahead and put you in less than ideal situations. Let us change all that. Now. Your Luck: There is more talent available to you than you realise.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

This feels like the calm after a storm and a few days of adjustment are needed. The New Moon gives a fresh attitude. Wasting time is not on your list of ‘things to do’! Advice given midweek is helpful but may not go far enough. Is a bit of research needed? Agreeing on the form of a family get-together may not be straightfo­rward. Don’t forget to consider what you want! Your Luck: Working with others oils the wheels of progress.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Going in the wrong direction is a real possibilit­y this week if you try to run rather than walk. You won’t lose your way but you could waste a lot of time. Finances, too, can be better handled if there is time to consider the best method. What you don’t know, ask! Inspiratio­n from home comes suddenly and unexpected­ly. There, aren’t you glad that you bothered to listen? Your Luck: Give praise where it is due and it may come again in the future.

Aries March 21 – April 20

In a quiet week there is the chance to think over recent events. You may think that something could have been done better, but you did what was right at the time. Move forward with optimism. Throwing yourself into work or helping someone gets you on the right track. There is a lot of love around you. Accept invitation­s and go somewhere you haven’t been before. Your Luck: A spiritual person can open your mind to new possibilit­ies.

Leo July 23 – August 23

You should be pleased with the outcome of your efforts this week. It may be a slow starter but by midweek there is real progress. Nothing seems to be easy but you would only get bored if it were! Being pulled in more than one direction? Stand still for a while and see what happens. Maybe someone is relying on you too much. Give them a chance to do things for themselves. Your Luck: Looking for bargains? Give it another week if you are able.
