NOVELS and poetry often refer to oncein-a-lifetime events. As a result, there are a plethora of instructio­n manuals on how to cope when we come across one. We’re products of our culture and often seduced into believing we face one such once-in-alifetime moment when, in reality, it’s more commonplac­e. A current issue is feeling like a very big deal indeed. So, is that feeling of mounting tension going to fizzle out with a quiet pop, or explode and change your life? Just don’t overreact. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

TAURUS Apr 21 — May 21

TIME marches on. But it tends to do so at different speeds depending on the circumstan­ces. When you’re enjoying yourself, or engrossed in a task, it sprints by. If you’re stuck in a traffic jam, or waiting to go on holiday, it slows to the most leaden-footed crawl. But, even when time seems to be going slowly, we can be certain of one thing — it is moving. You’re growing impatient with the duration of an episode in your life that you expected to be long over. It is making progress. Just give it a little more . . . time. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.

GEMINI May 22 — June 22

THE world is in a state of crisis. The ice-caps are melting, islands are sinking, and global leaders exhibit neither intelligen­ce nor backbone. How could it be worse? Well, that’s easy — if there weren’t people like you out there! A million candles can be lit from a single spark, and you’re a veritable beacon of light. Your goodness and openhanded­ness is infectious and inspiring. Its ripples can be felt from the centre of the world to the corners of its existence. Never doubt the good you do is appreciate­d. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

CANCER June 23 — July 23

UNLESS they fall on Full or New Moons, astrologer­s pay little mind to the links the Moon forms. It moves so quickly that its influence tends to be usurped by longer-lasting relationsh­ips between slowmoving planets. But today, as your ruler forms a Grand Trine with Uranus and Saturn, it does so in conjunctio­n with Venus. That’s the equivalent of playing the word ‘Moon’ (a humble 6) on a Scrabble board, but hitting the Triple Word Score. The game is far from over, the comeback is on. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.

LEO July 24 — Aug 23

SOMETHING doesn’t add up. You know there’s little point in putting your energy into something that’s uncertain, yet you’re tempted by the rewards on offer. Is it worth the risk? It’s a fair question to ask your astrologer! As a conduit to the messages the cosmos sends I can say that as Venus, in your sign, makes a harmonious aspect to Uranus, the planet of revolution­ary change, you can have faith that you already hold the informatio­n you seek. You know the answer to your question. Trust yourself. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

VIRGO Aug 24 — Sep 23

WELL, this is awkward. Something you want conflicts with something someone else wants. You don’t want to step on any toes, but you find yourself returning to this wish again and again. If you’re so committed to this dream, then why hesitate? You may be ceding too much power to others in areas of your life best left to your own judgment. True, The Rolling Stones did sing, ‘You can’t always get what you want...’ but who says they were singing to you? If you want it, go for it. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23

WE know time is linear. It marches steadily on day by day, drawing us inexorably with it. It’s inescapabl­e and insistent; kind and cruel. It’s one of the absolutes of our world. And we’re taught this from the youngest age. Yet, despite this, we have days that feel like years and years that feel like days. It’s enough to scramble your brain. How can time be so constant and feel so fickle? We’ll probably never know. Fortunatel­y, there’s enough stability in the rest of your life to keep you grounded today. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

SCORPIO Oct 24 — Nov 22

SOMETIMES, the world shifts around us and we’re so focused on the details that we don’t even notice. In fact . . . it just has! You’ve been so desperatel­y searching for a solution to a tricky person, situation or event that you haven’t looked up for long enough to realise it’s right in front of you. It might take a while to shake off that gnawing feeling of doubt. But it will go. And, as soon as you begin to allow for the possibilit­y of a different outlook, a new-found optimism will grow. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 23 — Dec 21

WE ALL love a rags-to-riches story. From Cinderella to Steve Jobs, we delight in tales in which the underdog triumphs against the odds. Look at Oprah Winfrey, fired from her first TV job when she was 23. Now, well, she’s Oprah. I draw a parallel to such a prominent figure because we’re all the centres of our own universes. You may feel small and adrift now, wondering what good can come your way. But whatever you’ve lost is not as great as what’s to come. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 — Jan 20

THERE’S a famous saying, ‘what goes up must come down’. It comes from the ancient idea of Fortune’s Wheel. The wheel reminded kings, queens and aristocrat­s that their rise was not entirely of their own doing: it could turn again and, just as it had once brought them high, it could, one day, bring them back down. Today, the wheel has another message for you. What falls down often springs up again! You’re due to start experienci­ng the bounce effect. An exciting change is on offer. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 — Feb 19

WITH heat, a blacksmith can mould metal into any shape. Many materials become malleable under the right conditions. A bag of dry mixture can transform into a cake, if you add water and heat. Similarly, your present situation is more flexible than you think. The environmen­t might not be ideal for the change you wish, but you can alter the conditions. If you want to heat things up, ask someone to help. But choose wisely. You don’t want to bend the situation so far that it breaks. It’s an exceptiona­l week. The Equinox and the New Moon bring change and transforma­tion. For important news, call 1550 511 611.

PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20

I UNDERSTAND you’ve been wronged and are deserving of sympathy. But there’s always a time, after we’ve suffered an emotional injury, when licking our wounds only serves to stop them from beginning to heal. You can’t hide away forever — and you don’t really want to! There’s no benefit in feeding the fire of anger either. It’ll only make you rush decisions. Instead, it’s time to search for a hidden silver lining. It may be hard to find, but it’s there, and it will make all the difference. Exceptiona­l opportunit­ies arise as the New Moon energises the Equinox. For great news about your future, call 1550 511 611.
