ALTHOUGH they say opposites attract, people aren’t magnets. We tend to gravitate towards those with similar outlooks. Yet, comforting similariti­es may be deceptivel­y shallow. As the Sun moves from an empathic alignment with Neptune to oppose the Jupiter-Pluto conjunctio­n, it’s important to shine a light on to characteri­stics we might dismiss. With an open mind, surprising relationsh­ips are possible.

ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20 SINCE different people have different ideas, how are you supposed to know that yours are better than anyone else’s? It’s impossible to tell. Yet you can at least be sure of one thing . . . they certainly aren’t any worse! And they are your own. Your current strategy is based on experience. It’s influenced by relationsh­ips and emotions. And it makes sense to you. Although it might not be perfect, the powerful cosmic climate offers the courage to believe in yourself. Follow your instincts.

Success is about attitude and timing. Your four-minute forecast will help you make positive change. Call 1550 511 611.

TAURUS Apr 21 - May 21 YOUR super heroic moment has arrived. Should you go racing in, ready to sweep someone off their feet and carry them away to safety? You’d be doing them a favour, wouldn’t you? Perhaps. Yet sometimes people need to be allowed to work through their own problems. If we’re not given the chance to fix something, how will we ever learn? If you’re going to be wary of anything, be cautious of your own self-assurance. Make sure you’re doing the best thing for everyone involved. You’ve got so much to look forward to. Find the inspiratio­n you need in your latest four-minute forecast. Call 1550 511 611.

GEMINI May 22 - June 22 IF ONLY life was simpler. If you only had one thing to do, you’d be able to focus on it and get it done. Yet our world presents us with innumerabl­e tasks and challenges; the concept of them arriving one at a time is surely just a dream? Interestin­gly, psychologi­sts often notice it’s the way we handle the obstacles we face that often ends up bringing the greatest reward. Under powerful cosmic forces, if you can appreciate a recent impediment, you’ll learn from it, and move on. Auspicious alignments suggest good times are on their way.

CANCER June 23 - July 23 YOUR course is set. The journey has begun. But who kicked things into action? It certainly wasn’t you. I’d love to be able to tell you it’s time to take control, grab the reins and crack the whip ... but I won’t. Not because you can’t, but because you’re heading exactly where you’re meant to be going. It doesn’t matter that it wasn’t a conscious decision. They say that ‘the end justifies the means’ and, although that may feel difficult to believe, soon enough, you’ll see exactly what I mean. Knowledge is power. Find out how to take full advantage of your astrologic­al assets in your latest forecast. Call 1550 511 611.

LEO July 24 - Aug 23 ONCE upon a time, in the not so long ago, emails were a source of excitement, and visiting a website caused a thrill. That was, of course, before the internet evolved into the beast that we’ve come to rely on. You’re looking for a cutting-edge adventure in your life, but seem to be impeded by a set of constructs, rules and regulation­s. The good news is the cosmos is providing the ‘wriggle room’ to find an alternativ­e way through the red tape. With ingenuity you can find the freedom you crave. What’s in the sky for you? Helpful planetary alignments. For the good news in your in-depth forecast, call 1550 511 611.

VIRGO Aug 24 - Sep 23 PARENTS work on the basis that, if they try hard enough, their children will eventually eat broccoli, cabbage, spinach, and all the other varieties of the leafy greens the young tend to hate. But we should be wary of applying this approach too broadly. Sometimes ‘putting up with’ something becomes an awful lot like capitulati­on. Instead of rising to the challenge, we roll over and give up. You have the power to overhaul a frustratin­g situation. Don’t underestim­ate your ability to effect real, lasting change. For advice to guide you through the twists and turns of your week, call your four-minute forecast: 1550 511 611.

LIBRA Sep 24 - Oct 23 IT’S a ghastly feeling when we realise something has completely slipped our mind. How could we just forget? We’re so overcome with panic and guilt that we completely overlook the fact that maybe . . . just maybe . . . our intuition was at work. Perhaps there was a very good reason why we forgot? Perhaps we overlooked something that needed overlookin­g. Today brings understand­ing of why you’ve been putting off doing something. It also holds the potential for its imaginativ­e resolution. How can you stay focused and happy? Your weekly forecast will give you the help you need. Call 1550 511 611.

SCORPIO Oct 24 - Nov 22 WHEN is a victory not a victory? When we sacrifice more along the way than we ultimately gain. Time. Money. Sleep. Friendship­s. Happiness. These don’t exist in a vacuum; and we must try to maintain a sense of equilibriu­m. Sometimes an apparent disaster can provide the necessary impetus to reset our scales and bring us back to true. So, don’t write off recent events as a waste of your time and emotional investment. Look a little closer. The momentum has carried you far. Do you need help? What’s the best way to move forward and ensure success? Call your weekly forecast: 1550 511 611.

SAGITTARIU­S THEY Nov 23 - Dec 21 say there’s no smoke without fire, apparently, but it’s not always easy to tell what you’re seeing; steam can look an awful lot like smoke. Sometimes, it even forms into large clouds that, from a distance, might give you the impression that a fire is roaring out of control beneath it. You’d only realise that you’d reached the wrong conclusion if you got close enough to sniff the air. Even if the cloud you’re looking at seems ominous, the chances are high that it has an innocent explanatio­n. There’s no need to worry. All you need is some guidance. Your weekahead forecast can help. Call 1550 511 611.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20 WHAT practical use could a magician’s ability to produce rabbits from hats possibly have? What could you do with a profusion of fluffy, long-eared creatures? Well, you could start a pet farm, I suppose. But it wouldn’t be long before they multiplied and you’d be overrun with bunnies. Then you’d be looking for a magic wand to make them disappear! Being able to create something out of nothing isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Focus on making the right thing come into your world. You can do that today.

Your week-ahead forecast will help you see the bigger picture and keep you moving in the right direction. Call 1550 511 611.

AQUARIUS THERE’S Jan 21 - Feb 19 a great reggae song with the lyric, ‘the harder they come, the harder they fall’. If you know it, you could make it your theme song today. Although you might feel as though you’re facing a daunting prospect, you have the wherewitha­l to deal with it. Just because someone’s in a position of power doesn’t mean you must acquiesce. They have a weak spot — and the current cosmic climate not only lets you see it, it furnishes the skill to spot what you must do to get what you want. What does your heart desire and how can you achieve what your really want? Call your weekly forecast 1550 511 611.

PISCES IN THE Feb 20 - Mar 20 Noughties the most successful music producers were experts in the use of samples, and Auto-Tune. They could reproduce any sound. A particular low (if you ask me) was the incorporat­ion of ringtones into pop music in order to get people to sit up and pay attention. If you’re hearing an echo of a past conflict or confrontat­ion, don’t let it get on top of you. Close your ears and use your eyes. The closer you look, the faster you’ll realise that it’s not a warning, but an opportunit­y in disguise.
