OSCAR CAINER

VENUS has been covering new ground in Scorpio for almost a month. Today, she links encouragingly with its ruler, Pluto. This celestial dark horse makes it hard to predict what our hearts will desire this weekend. Yet one thing remains clear. Emotions, though intense and complicated, have the power to transform situations. Simply acknowledging feelings, especially the difficult ones, brings strength and sets the scene for good communication. The truth can be shockingly empowering. ARIES THE truth can often Mar 21 — Apr 20 be well, a little dull, to tell the truth. Lies, on the other hand, are far more exciting. When fiction rubs against reality, sparks invariably fly. It’s blindingly obvious, at the moment, that someone’s stretching their tale beyond the limits of reality. It’s so outlandish that it can’t possibly be true – yet, despite it all, their version of events is appealing. You know in your heart that an honest approach has to be the way towards a better 2019. Your task, this weekend, is to find a way to make truth attractive. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you? There’s great news in your Full Year Ahead prediction. Call 1550 511 611. TAURUS SAYING something Apr 21 — May 21 takes significantly less energy than actually doing it. And, the more we talk, the easier it is to tell ourselves that our words carry at least as much power as our actions. We can imagine ourselves triumphing, without lifting a finger. Words cost little, whilst actions require belief, commitment and time. As we move towards celebrating the new year, who cares what a key person is saying? It’s what they’re doing that counts. Be moved by your heart, irrespective of what your head tells you. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you? There’s great news in your Full Year Ahead prediction. Call 1550 511 611. GEMINI CAN you imagine May 22 — June 22 if you knew every single one of the billions of people on planet Earth? It’s hard enough coping with the demands of the few that you’re dealing with from day to day! Some people think you should do this, others think you should do that, and even more think that both options are equally ridiculous. It’s impossible to please everyone, this weekend. So, instead, listen to your voice – and yours alone. It’s time to put your metaphorical fingers in your ears and trust in your own intuition. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

Or, at the very least, stretch, bend and relax them when we need to. When we push ourselves to extremes, it takes a toll on our physical and emotional health. I’m mentioning this only because, in the build-up to 2019, you’ll face a conundrum that tempts you to push restrictions, limits and principles you’d never usually dream of violating. I’m not suggesting you should throw them out of the window – just don’t hold on to anything too dogmatically. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

Or maybe you could fly around a rainbow? The question, is whether or not you’re going to do what you keep saying you’ll do, or follow a different dream altogether. A few of your ideas sound significantly less ‘sensible’ than others ... while some are frankly, unreasonable. Keep your eyes peeled, this weekend, for an idea that seems logical but is grounded in assumptions. Bide your time before leaping into action. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

Not to mention the trumpets, bugles, cymbals and drums beating out a steady rhythm? Marching bands aren’t for just anyone, you know. In whose honour is this one? Yours, of course! Think, for a moment, of how much you’ve done, how much you’ve given up, and how far you’ve come. You deserve recognition, applause and celebration. More than anything, though, you deserve to feel the extent of your success. Luckily, that’s what 2019 has in store. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

Quite why they do so is beyond understanding. Isn’t there enough challenging stress in this world already? Yes… but only because they’ve put it there. And then there are some folk who can’t resist jumping on bandwagons. But how hard does your life really have to be as we move towards the new year? If you can successfully negotiate a tricky patch of quagmire this weekend, there’s no reason why everything can’t be straightforward. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

Nowadays, it’s the golden oldies rocking out at festivals and concerts, while students stay at home with a cup of tea. Age, it seems, is a state of mind, rather than of being. You’re not as old as you think you are; so why on earth can’t you act like someone who knows that their future is open to anything and everything they desire? Bring a sense of imagination, adventure and possibility to a problem this weekend. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you? There’s great news in your Full Year Ahead prediction. Call 1550 511 611. SAGITTARIUS THERE’S Nov 23 — Dec 21 only one way to stop doing something: and that’s to stop. It doesn’t matter how much you discuss it or how many grand plans you contrive, at the end of the day, it all comes down to a single moment of action. Once, however, you’ve got your momentum up, slamming on the brakes is rarely a good idea. It’s better to ease the pressure of your foot on the accelerator. Rather than feeling anxious about the momentum you’re gathering, be brave, this weekend. Take a leap of faith. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you?

CAPRICORN THE smallest Dec 22 — Jan 20 things can make a big difference – particularly when they turn out to be much bigger than you first imagined. It’s impossible, of course, for anyone to truly separate what’s ‘big’ from what’s ‘little’. It all comes down to personal opinion. But, then again, that’s exactly the issue this weekend. When you’re unsure of how you feel about unfolding events, it’s easy to blow them up out of proportion. But, as you will soon discover, they’re about to make you feel very fortunate indeed. NEW!

Well, you can – and they can do their best – but they’re never going to be quiet. It’s like asking a hippo to tap dance or an Aquarian to refrain from asking difficult questions. It simply feels natural to you – besides, there’s no evidence this is wrong in any way. Though you might find yourself feeling a little isolated this weekend, it’s only a temporary situation. You’re only doing what you’ve got to do. And that’s always the right thing to do. NEW! Want to know what 2019 has in store for you? There’s great news in your Full Year Ahead prediction. Call 1550 511 611. PISCES ARE you expected Feb 20 — Mar 20 to know everything about every single thing that’s ever happened? Why should it be an issue to admit that, yes, there’s something you don’t know, or can’t control? As you engage in a kind of mentalwrestling match with yourself as well as someone else, take a second to consider your options. Winning might be impossible... but so is losing. Unless, that is, you sprain your brain by trying too hastily to resolve an issue that demands time and careful consideration. Be patient this weekend. NEW!
