Horoscopes

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Avoid any awkwardness with colleagues as you may need their help later in the week. Sympathising with their problems gives you a chance to think of your own. The way others deal with these can show the way forward. Yes, you can learn from others both in their successes and their mistakes. Be there for loved ones and don’t take them for granted. Your Luck: Showing confidence and sympathy gets you everywhere this week. Appear to have the answers.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Having been given the chance to improve a relationship, don’t miss the opportunity. In a week when you’re most likely to get what you want, choose those requests carefully! Finances and business may be sluggish but avoid any ‘knee jerk’ reactions, especially if it involves borrowing lots of money. A little time could solve your problem. Your Luck: There’s something to be said in just seeing how things pan out. Premature action could take things off balance.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Rethinking your role at home or work serves to move your life forward. The things that have changed over the last year may have seemed bad at the time. However, now it is clear that they were necessary. Rejuvenation is often painful and letting go of old and trusted methods is hard. Even so, this is a time to show your courage and ability to take life as it comes. Your Luck: The past may still be affecting you but it does not have to play a big part in your future.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

A slow start to the week is deceiving. Soon things hot up and start to happen. At this point make a promise to yourself to have a restful weekend. You are going to need it! The expectations that others have of you do not always tally with how you see yourself. Nothing uncommon in that! Still, keep your strong belief of who you are and be ready to put your own needs first. Your Luck: Break away from old ways of seeing yourself. There is so much more to you.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Trying to please everyone is simply not going to work at the moment! Pour your resources and energy into getting a balance between work and home. Never underestimate the value of backup from home. Given the chance to start a new venture with someone, make sure that the money and effort put into it is truly shared. You may be feeling generous, too generous. Your Luck: It seems necessary to try and see ahead. A cloud over your next move will shift. Give it time.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Before you leap into your next project give yourself some time out. Be centred on what you really want and are aiming for. To do so saves you time and money. Energy and enthusiasm will come in their own time. Meanwhile just be prepared to think positively and plan for success. Where you excel this week is in your optimism and humour. Keep the momentum going when it starts. Your Luck: Look very carefully at a new relationship. Do you really need it?

Aries March 21 – April 20

Partners and loved ones seem closer than ever this week. Although you feel the love, there’s a kind of nervousness deep down. It’s important to realise that this feeling is pretty much universal at the beginning of this new year. With so much going on in the world it’s not surprising to feel frustration at a lack of control. What you can control, however, is your working life. Your Luck: Forging ahead with plans gives a more balanced and secure feeling. Finances give security.

Leo July 23 – August 23

After the break, work suddenly appeals to you again. Getting back in line with colleagues puts you in the mood. Things in this area can move fast now, especially if you pull together. Of course, working hard means that ‘playtime’ needs to be more relaxing. Whatever it is that recharges your batteries, indulge! Where you have responsibilities, deal with them. Your Luck: Inspire your own actions and thoughts by remembering your successes, not your failures.

Sagittarius November 23 – December 21

Pop-up problems soon pop down again. Why? Because they truly can be red herrings, there to test you! Looking for the chance to help others can bring you to a place of comfort. Who knew that so many people felt the same? Sometimes you have felt isolated in your thoughts and feelings. Not any more. You see, you only have to reach out to find the answers. Your Luck: Breathe new life into your emotions and humour at the weekend. This is a turning point.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Security and finances seem to dominate this week. A feeling that you need to stay in control can cause friction with a partner. Trying to deal with their concerns seems tedious. Even so, you do care, so take time to listen and learn where they’re coming from. When it comes to cash flow deal with one matter at a time. Don’t rush into taking out loans because it seems the easy option. Your Luck: Emotionally you feel the need to make yourself clear. Just do it with kindness.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Don’t let a quiet start to the week put you in a low mood. There may not be any immediate success in prospect, that needs a bit more time. Even so, pick up on those opportunities that do come your way. Slowly and carefully should be your motto now. Create your own comfort zone to retreat to when things get hard but make it a place of optimism. Your Luck: Keep physically active and get outdoors when weather permits. Take in the sights and sounds of nature.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Stay calm as things start to happen around you. Maybe it is felt that changes would ideally happen more slowly. Well, opportunities come when they come and not always to order! In an emotional week you can be close to tears at one moment and full of joy the next. This can be confusing as transitional times often are. Still, optimism should be your companion in all this. Your Luck: Solutions will start to show themselves soon enough. In the meantime, have patience.
