Your Stars

- With Patrick Arundell

Aries

March 21 – April 20

Have too much to do? Friends will pitch in if you ask. The Sun in a lingering tie to Saturn can make you reluctant to reach out. But as time is precious, it’s worth doing. You never know who might respond and what new relationsh­ips develop. Another side of you could feel that impulsive urge to get involved in activities that seem lucrative but could siphon away money.

Gemini

May 22 – June 21

The best companions are those that make your heart sing and boost your spirits. Avoid being around people who have the opposite effect and leave you drained. As the Sun begins to move away from its encounter with Saturn, you may have had a recent meeting with someone who has a leaden quality. Be nice, but don’t let them commandeer your ear whenever they feel like it.

Leo

July 24 – August 23

Someone who appears tough may show their more vulnerable side over the next day or so, which could surprise you. If you thought this person wasn’t interested, then the Sun’s link to healer Chiron might cause a chink in their seemingly impenetrab­le defences. If you can appeal to their more caring side, then whatever you hoped might change could now begin to do so, Leo.

Libra

September 24 – October 23

This may be an excellent time for networking, as the kind of people you connect with can be fabulous company. Even if you don’t see much of them again, you could be impacted by their ideas and perspectiv­e on life. At the same time, with lovely Venus continuing her tie to Neptune, family activities might include watching an inspiring movie together or crafting a beautiful item.

Sagittariu­s

November 23 – December 21

You may feel like being spontaneou­s and heading out to make new discoverie­s where you live. Rather than stick with the places you already know, a lively blend of influences can entice you to do some exploring and to connect with groups and places that truly inspire you. Off on a shopping spree? You could be bewitched by an item for the home. Just be sure the price is right.

Aquarius

January 21 – February 19

Your awareness of how another is feeling could make it easier to discuss an edgy issue. Even so, there may be some subjects that are best left alone for now, as restless energies can make it hard to settle. If you go on a walk or workout first you might feel so much calmer. As a result, it will be easier to listen to what others have to say Aquarius, which means you are halfway there.

Taurus

April 21 – May 21

This can be one of those times when you have so much on that you don’t know what to attempt next. If so, it’s time to prioritize rather than do a little of everything half-heartedly. You may be great at multi-tasking, but everyone has a limit. Before those plates come crashing to the ground, focus on the most important matter first Taurus, then rinse and repeat, and you’ll manage fine.

Cancer

June 22 – July 23

Things may be on a roll regarding money and business matters, which is why checking out any dazzling opportunit­ies first can be such a good idea. Give any such offers time and dig a little deeper to find out more. It may be that it sounds good but has a hidden flaw, something you need to know about before you commit. Ready for a date Cancer? Venus stands ready to help.

Virgo

August 24 – September 23

If there’s a task that you’ve tended to avoid, then the Sun’s energetic tie with Saturn might provide the encouragem­ent to get on with it. Indeed, getting those odd jobs out of the way may be very satisfying. When it comes to more intense matters, a solar tie to healer Chiron suggests that startling insights can be the catalyst that helps you resolve an ongoing situation, Virgo.

Scorpio

October 24 – November 22

With sultry Venus in your communicat­ion zone, your words can have a certain charm and appeal that others respond to. Therefore, if you should have to smooth over any relationsh­ip issues, this influence might help. Her presence could also assist you in finding the right words to resolve any family dramas, as with various plans and projects on the go, discussion­s need to be productive.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 20

With sweet Venus angling towards dreamy Neptune, be sure you understand another’s words. There is a possibilit­y of mixed messages or other confusing circumstan­ces that could get in the way of plans. You can also pick up on other people’s moods, which is why making time to unwind with a soothing bath or shower may be so very relaxing and might clear your head too.

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

As Venus continues her link to Neptune, should you trust your instincts and indulge in some self-care or push yourself to do other things that you might have been putting off? The cosmos hints that if you make time to unwind first, you may feel your natural sparkle returning fast. This can give you the energy to get all those necessary jobs done and then have some fun later, Pisces.
