HOROSCOPES

LIBRA 24 SEPT-23 OCT

No matter how hard you try to control your temper this week, Mars, planet of anger and aggression, at odds with Jupiter, planet of excess and exaggeration, will at some stage overpower you and make you blow your top. Don’t read too much into what you say or do. Everyone needs to let off steam occasionally – why should you be the exception? CALL 1560 475 018*

SCORPIO 24 OCT-22 NOV

It may take a while to overcome the fears and worries that have plagued you in recent weeks, but already you should be looking forward to better days. The Sun in your sign from 22 October marks the start of your personal solar year, so get ready to put the past behind you. CALL 1560 475 019* SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV-21 DEC

The thing you want most this week is the one thing you will reject – and then do anything to get back. A wiser approach might be to forget about trying to transform your life and simply enjoy what you already have – it happens to be precisely what you need. CALL 1560 475 020* CAPRICORN 22 DEC-20 JAN

You may feel you could defeat the world this week, but any victories will likely be short-lived if you ride roughshod over others’ feelings. No matter how invincible you may think you are, there is always someone bigger and tougher – and they are getting closer all the time! CALL 1560 475 021* AQUARIUS 21 JAN-19 FEB

It may seem you have lost control over certain aspects of your lifestyle. The more you try to steer yourself towards calmer waters, the more unseen powers will draw you into a whirlpool of emotions. A confrontation is likely this week, if not with others then certainly with yourself. CALL 1560 475 010* PISCES 20 FEB-20 MARCH

You’ll get the chance this week to tackle an ongoing financial or business problem – something that has been worrying you for months. It is up to you whether or not to take the opportunity being offered, but if you don’t, it will be a long time before it comes round again. CALL 1560 475 011* ARIES 21 MARCH-20 APRIL

Whether or not you want to get involved in a family or relationship dispute is beside the point – you simply have to bring your Aries powers of fair play to bear if the situation is ever to be sorted out to everyone’s satisfaction. You should be proud to be a peacemaker. CALL 1560 475 012* TAURUS 21 APRIL-21 MAY

Honest and open discussion, especially on subjects that annoy you, is the only way to avoid talking at cross purposes with partners and loved ones this week. Neither side may like what they hear, but at least the week will end on a more understanding note than it began. CALL 1560 475 013* GEMINI 22 MAY-21 JUNE

You may feel inspired and overflowing with energy, but that’s of secondary importance. If you fail to apply your talents in the right direction, it won’t matter how much effort you make – you will never be satisfied with what you achieve. Think before you act if you want to be a winner. CALL 1560 475 014* CANCER 22 JUNE-23 JULY

Mars at odds with Jupiter will give you a false sense of urgency this week – you’ll feel that if you don’t take action immediately, you’ll miss your chance. On the contrary, if you do take action it may be too much, too soon. Leave it a day or two and your attitude will mellow. CALL 1560 475 015* LEO 24 JULY-23 AUG

If you try to manipulate others’ emotions this week, you may be surprised to find it is yours being exploited. You’re never more vulnerable than when you’re trying to be smart, because there will always be someone who is smarter and more manipulative than you. CALL 1560 475 016* VIRGO 24 AUG-23 SEPT

You may be eager to get a plan or project off the ground and this week’s Mars-Jupiter aspect is unlikely to increase your patience. However, by moving ahead too quickly, your resources will soon run dry. It may be frustrating, but the time is not yet right for that big push. CALL 1560 475 017*
