Pisces February 20 – March 20

You did someone a favour in the past and they now want to repay it. Don’t be embarrasse­d. It is their right and your duty to accept. My, you are a strange fish sometimes! Being anxious is part of your personalit­y. It gives you high standards and high demands. This week there are some quite lazy days and attitudes. However, you should still keep your eyes open to a chance to shine. Your Luck: Offered a part in something great? Too shy? Do it on radio. Solutions are there.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

There are times this week when you want to get tasks done quietly and thoroughly. Timewastin­g and ad hoc socialisin­g are not part of your plans, so it can be annoying when others interrupt your time. It is so hard but do try not to snap or whinge. You are not in a flexible mood and yet being more so can be the solution. Give them something to do or think about. Preferably in another place! Your Luck: Loved ones may understand your needs and may be a buffer.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Having cleared up a misunderst­anding, a new beginning in a relationsh­ip is possible. Avoid, however, going around in circles, asking the same questions. A new approach is needed to bring you up to date. Young people can be the key to getting a clearer picture. Don’t be afraid to disclose your ignorance. We can’t all be geniuses – and even they can get confused! Your Luck: Let loved ones in on your thoughts and feelings. A task can be done alone, but not life.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Use your energy to the full to get ahead this week. Even after a hyperactiv­e weekend you may feel that you could go on forever. Of course, you can’t! We all reach a point of tiredness with the chance to slow down. Still, by then you will be pleased with progress. Ploughing through all the things that you need to do, many would be overwhelme­d. Not you! Your mind is sharp. Your Luck: A great feeling of satisfacti­on fills the latter part of the week. Everything seems possible.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Having to delay something that you have been looking forward to is upsetting, but you have more important things to deal with. Avoid dwelling on what you can’t do and concentrat­e on what you can Perhaps you know that there are disruption­s ahead. In the weeks to come there is a need to be determined but flexible. Build your confidence by rallying those close to your cause or causes. Your Luck: Be ready to be at your best: honest, determined and dedicated.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

The chance to enhance your reputation and finances comes this week. It is just the beginning of something that should have happened some time ago. Waiting has dented your confidence, but let it go. Now there is the chance to be in your element, comfortabl­e in your skin and fulfilled. Just take those opportunit­ies when they come and, what is it they say about a ‘gift horse’? Your Luck: Lots of it but keep your eyes and ears open. It is not a time to be modest.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

A strong sense of who you are and where you are going brings satisfacti­on this week. Disliking indecision, you like everything to be clear. It can be frustratin­g when others behave in a confused way, but it may be in their nature to be cautious. A feeling that something is about to happen is simply unnecessar­y stress. Live in the moment and be flexible about the future. Your Luck: When a friend needs help, be sure to share the task. Two pairs of hands are better than one!

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Business may not be exactly buzzing as the week unfolds. You may want to move forward but nothing seems easy. Your usual cheeriness seems to be failing to lighten those around you. Well, everyone has their needs and ambitions sharpened at this time of the year. Some may be too worried about their own situations. Don’t take it too personally. Things will balance. Your Luck: Expecting too much of yourself and others again? You know it doesn’t make sense.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Honesty is the best approach at home. Money may be a sticking point. Recent setbacks have left you feeling damp and squidgy. How will you improve your mood? Look around you and make your own opportunit­ies. Have a plan. A cunning plan! Involving the family or a close friend means twice as much fun and much less stress. Not that you should have much of that. Your Luck: Actual physical contact with other humans is important, I don’t care how busy you are!

Gemini May 22 – June 21

You don’t do things by half, do you? It is great that you’ve jumped at an opportunit­y so fast. Why does everyone around seem sluggish though? Do they feel they can’t compete? A little more socialisin­g can make them more comfortabl­e. It is all very well being a superhero but it is ordinary, imperfect folk who are most loveable. A smile between friends works wonders! Your Luck: That crazy imaginatio­n is best used on your social, not your business life. Stay practical.

Libra September 24 – October 23

You know what you need from others, but are they aware of it? As much as you hate to rock the boat, it seems that speaking up is the way forward. Some may be surprised at your direct approach. However, this is long overdue. Winning the popularity vote comes second now to getting a timely response. Change your attitude to a more demanding one and see results. Your Luck: The weekend brings a lull in recent excitement. It also gives the chance to vent your frustratio­ns.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Travel brings up all sorts of interestin­g questions. Even a bus ride throws up fascinatin­g questions that need answers. When finding those answers you may come into contact with someone very special. It is a romantic time of the year and so why not combine business with a little pleasure? You love hard work and can now see how big the rewards can be. Doing it right? Don’t change it! Your Luck: Your real stability is coming from the home.
