HOROSCOPES

VIRGO 24 AUG-23 SEPT

Seldom have your prospects looked brighter. Rarely have you had so much to shout about. With a Virgo New Moon and both Venus and Mars moving in your favour, your world is a great place to be. So what is the problem? Could it be that you have suddenly realised how much work is involved in what you are planning to do? Don’t worry – you will enjoy it once you start. CALL 1560 475 017*

LIBRA 24 SEPT-23 OCT

This should be an exciting week. Passionate Mars in the most romantic area of your chart means that affairs of the heart are particularly well starred. Even if nothing much seems to happen, there will be things going on behind the scenes that will take your breath away. CALL 1560 475 018* SCORPIO 24 OCT-22 NOV

What you gain will be more important than what you lose this week. That may alarm you over what you are likely to lose but there is no need to worry. A particularly dynamic New Moon indicates that if you lose anything it will be something you are glad to be without. CALL 1560 475 019* SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV-21 DEC

If you are starting something new this week your name will soon be up in lights. A New Moon in Virgo combined with a dramatic Sun-Pluto aspect means you have the vision, the confidence and, above all, the ruthlessness to make a success of what you are planning. CALL 1560 475 020* CAPRICORN 22 DEC-20 JAN

Life moves in cycles, and what occurs in the days ahead will make it abundantly clear that a positive cycle is beginning for you. You don’t have to do anything special, just notice the things that happen and move with the flow rather than try to swim against it. CALL 1560 475 021* AQUARIUS 21 JAN-19 FEB

Timing is everything in life and the time to make your move is now while the cosmos is working in your favour. If you have an important business or financial deal to finalise then try to sign and seal it over the next few days – or, at the very least, agree the major details. CALL 1560 475 010* PISCES 20 FEB-20 MARCH

You cannot afford to be soft or sentimental this week. With the Sun and Pluto perfectly aligned, this is the ideal time to impose your will on situations that have become rather chaotic. That doesn’t mean you should be ruthless or unpleasant, but you do need to be tough. CALL 1560 475 011* ARIES 21 MARCH-20 APRIL

No one in their right mind would knowingly annoy you because sooner or later you always get your own back. Therefore, consider the possibility that someone is being stupid rather than spiteful this week. You can be vengeful if you want to, but is it worth the effort? CALL 1560 475 012* TAURUS 21 APRIL-21 MAY

This will be a testing time for you as Mars, planet of energy and ambition, crosses the angle of your chart that governs your work and social status. No matter how tough the challenges that come your way, you are equipped to meet them all. Not only meet them but prosper. CALL 1560 475 013* GEMINI 22 MAY-21 JUNE

You are used to criticism and usually you just ignore it, but from the look of your solar chart you are now ready to bark back – and with a vengeance. You may regret it afterwards, but there really is no need: an emotional outburst will clear the air dramatically this week. CALL 1560 475 014* CANCER 22 JUNE-23 JULY

Whatever you start this week you will have to see it through to completion, so it is vital that you know what you want to be doing a week, a month, maybe six months from now. If there are any doubts at all it might be best not to commit yourself too heavily. CALL 1560 475 015* LEO 24 JULY-23 AUG

If you are in any way ambitious – and being a Leo it is likely – this is the time to lay down your cards and let everyone know what you hope to accomplish. Someone, somewhere has the right opportunity for you, but you may never find it if you don’t let the world know you exist. CALL 1560 475 016*
