SATURN is roughly a third of the way through its stay in Capricorn (its home sign) where it freely exerts its influence. ‘Freely’ isn’t a word most people would associate with the planet of discipline and hard work, but its position of strength encourages us to appreciate our freedom to make decisions, and use its powerful energy for good purpose. As the Sun converges with Saturn today, it brings the chance to take key steps towards achieving something special and a determinat­ion to stick to resolution­s, too.

ARIES IF STORIES began Mar 21 — Apr 20 with the words ‘and they all lived happily ever after’ we wouldn’t bother to read them! It’s the struggles and challenges, fears and worries that keep us enthralled. The resolution is satisfying only once the difficult objectives have been attained. The tale of your year is only just beginning to unfold … and there are exciting twists and turns on the road ahead. Once they’ve begun you’ll have more of a sense of the destinatio­n you’re heading towards. Happy New Year!

TAURUS WHAT would you Apr 21 — May 21 prefer today: an issue you’re easily able to solve or a scenario that you resent? I guessed as much. But there’s another question you should consider. What does someone close to you desire? Do they really want what they think they want? Or do they want something that they can’t admit to? As we settle into the New Year you have the ability to help someone ask themselves some difficult questions. The conversati­on might not be easy but in its wake everything will be clearer.

GEMINI SHOW more May 22 — June 22 effort! Work even harder! Give up more time! Make greater sacrifices! Put yourself under pressure! Become more hyper! Lose your sense of equilibriu­m! Become obsessed with your work! You can allow this vicious cycle to continue if you want to. Or you can maximise the cosmic energy and make a conscious decision to stand back and give yourself time to find a sense of proportion. There’s wisdom on offer. Accept it and get 2019 off to the start it deserves. Happy New Year! For a special message about the powerful possibilit­ies that await you in 2019 call: 1550 511 611.

CANCER IT STARTS when June 23 — July 23 we’re little: well-meaning adults attempt to impose a sense of boundaries and limitation­s on us. We learn what we’re allowed to do, and what’s ‘not possible’. One of the results of that learning is that we end up feeling that life will always be filled with restrictio­ns that we’re obliged to accept. Then if we’re not careful we end up perceiving opportunit­ies as dangerous and turn away from chances to improve our lives. The start of 2019 highlights your courage to do things differentl­y.

LEO AS THE Sun July 24 — Aug 23 converges with Saturn it highlights your commitment to a situation you feel passionate about. Your arrival into 2019 has an air of excitement that looks set to continue. Today, though, brings the chance to check that your evaluation­s are based on evidence rather than just speculatio­n and brings a reminder that no-one on the planet makes impeccable decisions all the time. Allow your feelings of doubt to ebb and flow. Stick with what you’ve started. Happy New Year! For a special message about the powerful possibilit­ies that await you in 2019 call: 1550 511 611.

VIRGO EVEN though Aug 24 — Sep 23 something is finally starting to take a turn for the better it doesn’t mean that everything will go according to plan. You’ve still got a manoeuvre to complete and if you continue to aim for an unattainab­le ideal then you may thwart your chances of achieving the success you’ve worked so hard for. Try to focus at the start of this year on what you’re good at… and simply ignore the rest. Keep your eyes on the true prize and remember that in certain situations less really is more.

LIBRA WE don’t really Sep 24 — Oct 23 understand very much about what we’re supposed to be doing with our lives. On a deep level we’re aware that we don’t even really comprehend things we feel confident about. We know the sun will rise but we don’t fully know how. We know life is finite (although we prefer not to think about it). That’s why we tend to talk about everything under the sun except the really big topics. 2019 brings a reality check which can bring positive and profound focus to the start of your year.

SCORPIO DO YOU consider Oct 24 — Nov 22 yourself to be lucky or unlucky? Or are these merely emotional terms of no use when trying to consider life in a balanced, healthy way? You’re probably somewhere in the middle — after all almost all of us are. Yet since this is your horoscope other people’s fortunes are irrelevant today! As the world settles into a new year you’re about to find yourself in a fortuitous situation. Even matters that ought to count against you are working in your favour albeit in a roundabout way.

SAGITTARIU­S SPEECH! Nov 23 — Dec 21 Speech! Here’s your stage and a microphone. It’s time to shout your resolution­s from the rooftops! OK that probably isn’t necessary. After all you have no need to compete with street preachers or fruit sellers for attention. The truth is that it doesn’t matter what you say or how widely you spread your hopes. What counts is that you maintain your confident approach and stay firm in your resolve. If you have faith in yourself you’ll move from strength to strength. Happy New Year!

CAPRICORN WE’RE Dec 22 — Jan 20 judged from the moment we arrive on planet Earth. Unknown people in positions of authority categorise us according to our health, wellbeing and social status. We’re weighed. We’re measured. Before we can even walk or talk our limitation­s have been decided. But no-one need stay within the restrictio­ns placed around them. Why should anyone tell you what you’re capable of achieving? At the start of the new year the only limits are those you put on yourself. Ignore your doubts today. Happy New Year!

AQUARIUS WELCOME! Jan 21 — Feb 19 Step right in and make yourself comfortabl­e. Actually you’re running a bit late for your appointmen­t so let’s not waste any more time. Tell me about your childhood. Were you happy with the way… er … sorry? You want a forecast not therapy? I had the feeling that you were looking for someone to whom you can offload. A confusing phenomenon has caught your imaginatio­n and it’s very distractin­g. You’re about to receive informatio­n that will make things very clear. Happy New Year!

PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20 ALTHOUGH you feel as though you’re on your own in dealing with a challenge it’s more that your supportive relationsh­ips aren’t quite where (or even who) you thought they were. The quest you have embarked upon involves a certain amount of solo travelling and also some working alongside people you’d normally find it difficult to be around. Any feelings of negativity associated with your social circle at the start of the year will soon disappear. The road into 2019 looks exciting and will be with convivial company. Happy New Year!
