Horoscopes

Virgo August 24 – September 23

The influence of Neptune brings a cloudy, wishful thinking kind of time to your love life. If you want excitement you need to use the right words and approach. Never criticise or imply that someone is lacking. Therein lies a whole bundle of trouble! No, soft and gentle is the way, with knobs on! Missing out on a more humorous approach? Maybe that is because you are trying to avoid looking silly. Your Luck: Keep a low profile if it feels right to do so.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Friends and lovers are set to share a big adventure with you. If you are taking a special trip or celebrating something very unusual, make it memorable. There seem to be surprises around every corner at the moment. Could that be because you missed out on certain clues? Sharpen up and try to be more aware of things before they happen. In this way some can be made the most of and some avoided. Your Luck: Keep on your toes this week!

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Venus helps with negotiations and Virgo urges you to get your finances organised this week. So, if you are looking for cooperation in this area, now is the time. Anything that needs plotting and planning, especially romance, is good now. Give out that confident and charming smile! Knowledge that others do not have can give you the edge if you act on it. You don’t need to be innocent, just fair. Your Luck: Business needs a cool head.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Surprise revelations could give you the jitters this week. The unexpected was never your favourite thing, was it? Mercury is urging you to communicate how you feel. Find yourself beating around the bush so as not to upset someone? Will they find out anyway? If not then you have a choice. It is one that many in the same situation would be glad to have. Your Luck: Remember that some things are not meant for general consumption.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

For the best results get legal and financial matters sorted before the end of the month. At this time Mercury could cause all sorts of hiccups and misunderstandings. Mars is also capable of stirring things up but often in a good way. Working happily with a crowd of people shows just what fun you can have. The fact that you also see some great products is a real bonus. Your Luck: Get together with others to plan any future projects.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Full of energy, Mars could tempt you into being unpredictable this week. If that means suddenly deciding to do something impulsive, keep safe! You may use this exciting tendency to pep up your love life or pose an important question. Certainly that sounds better than skydiving. Living life to the full is great. Your Luck: Be aware that moments shared are moments long in the savouring. Alone is not right for you now or later!

Scorpio October 24 - November 22

It is not always easy to combine friendships with finances, as you will find this week. If you lend cash to a friend, be prepared to lose it rather than fall out with them. It is a matter of watching out for someone trying to take advantage. Still, a loved one will reset the balance. Sharing a worry really does get rid of it! Certainly avoid fussing about something that is just a puff of wind. Your Luck: If you want romance at the weekend, create it!

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Why not take someone special where they have never been before? Make it a time for long-standing memories for you both. Involve relatives and friends on a special day at the weekend. Be prepared to share your happiness. A busy but enjoyable week comes to a head at the weekend with a truly pleasurable time. However, keep the beginning of next week a little quieter? Your Luck: This is a happy, lucky and romantic period for you.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Venus and Jupiter combine to bring harmony. There will be celebrations and good news, especially through neighbours and relatives. Cash flow should be better but you may not want to splash it, thinking more in the long term. Serious moments stop your head spinning and your heart thumping. Yes, sometimes you have to take a practical approach. You can enjoy more for it. Your Luck: Loving and plenty of hugs are in store this week.

Sagittarius November 23 - December 21

Getting stuck in details is one of the things that you dread. You can’t avoid tackling a sticky situation but if you are prepared it can soon be sorted out. Try not to get frustrated because someone won’t immediately take your advice. In the end they will see the sense of it. In the meantime keep your sense of humour and be sure that they keep theirs. Your Luck: You will breathe a sigh of relief when someone stops struggling.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Passions flare and long held back words are spoken. Well, you have been forewarned. Some say that the nice thing about disagreements is the making up. Certainly you have both the charm and charisma to do that. Show your willingness to be flexible and understand another’s point of view. Sometimes their actions may be tedious but they are, after all, human! Your Luck: A tricky but also an exciting week with Mars and Saturn on your tail.

July 23 – August 23 Leo The tensions of last week should be behind you but there is little let-up in the pace. Mars, full of energy and optimism, is on your tail and urging excitement. Trying something new? Do it with friends for a really memorable experience. Many will now be on holiday and closer than ever to loved ones. Living in the ‘here and now’ has never been so full of joy. If you don’t feel this, retune your priorities. Your Luck: Realise how wonderful and precious this time is.
