Scorpio

October 24 – November 22

My, you’ve been busy! This may be a week to step back and take stock. When full of energy you want to just bulldozer your way through, but resist. Time to think may seem boring but it can turn up the right idea. After midweek you have a flash of inspiratio­n regarding others. You may be just what they need to get them moving. Be prepared to enter leader mode! Your Luck: Maybe keep hold of your cash until you have made a few checks. Be practical in this area.

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

Such are the possibilit­ies before you that it is hard to make a plan. Start on something within easy reach and then progress from there. No need to curb your enthusiasm because now you know what you want! Let your imaginatio­n run wild for a few days and then decide what is a practical approach. Have fun! Suddenly getting what you want seems easier. Your Luck: This week’s New Moon gives you a chance to really make a change in your social life.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

What do you really want? A personal connection is on the brink of change. Before you rush ahead, give yourself the chance to really decide. What do you want the future to hold with this person? Be optimistic. Before giving your own feelings an airing, though, take the time to find out theirs. A little adjustment may be needed. Turning your back on the past? Be brave. Your Luck: Given this chance to be in charge of your near future, don’t look back.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

Did last week throw up a disappoint­ment? Finding it hard to get over it? Worry not. This week’s New Moon gives a fresh start and a surprise. This time it’s a good one and it will make you smile. Indeed, if you can muster the enthusiasm for a project then you can inspire others. Now, that brings real satisfacti­on and lots of fun. Remember fun? Sure you do! Your Luck: Keep a close eye on finances and keep your practical hat on!

Aries

March 21 – April 20

Full of fun and optimism? You should be in this special week. Something that you have been frustrated by has now passed. The path ahead seems clear and free. Keep some of your plans to yourself until you know that they are practical. A loved one is at hand to give a very important opinion. Listen and then fit it to your own needs. A New Moon gives a new perspectiv­e. Your Luck: With Jupiter on your side, is it time for a party? Seems that way.

Leo

July 23 – August 23

Feeling that someone or something is just right? Know that this is what you want and need? Be honest with your feelings and unafraid of speaking about them. What others want is for the real you to come out. Be brave and show you care. With charm simply oozing from you this week, you sure have the advantage! Now is the time to look forward, certainly not back! Your Luck: Bringing others together at the weekend could be fun, but keep it low-key.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Both your imaginatio­n and your heart can rush ahead now. Whatever was holding you back has either disappeare­d or is no longer important. Trying something new is easy. It could also mean expanding your circle of friends and colleagues. Yes, bringing a bit of fun into the lives of others sees you on a roll. Want to start planning something for the festive season? Why not! Your Luck: A few small blips this week can only spur you on and make you more determined.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

In a productive and inspiring week, be ready to make some long-needed changes. Decide on your plan for the month before leaping ahead, though. Don’t expect everyone to agree with you. Those who don’t can be approached again next week. Rome was not built in a day but was certainly worth waiting for! The past must not be allowed to cloud the horizon. Your Luck: Let this New Moon give you a new start. Get out and see what others are doing.

Virgo

August 24 – September 23

This is a week in which you feel extra special. Why? Because you are! A recent event has left you with a bit more confidence and rightly so! Put plenty of effort into getting what you need but not what others think that you need. Being true to yourself is what brings real contentmen­t. Maybe feeling like some cosy nights at home? Cuddle up and enjoy. Always look forward. Your Luck: You have a great deal of control over the future if you take charge.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Another great rush of energy and imaginatio­n hits you this week. Just out of the blue comes an idea and a plan. If it is untried and even a bit scary, give it a chance. Some plans can be adapted. It seems that you have a strong ally by your side and a New Moon to guide you in the right direction. When it comes to love and your home life there is a definite warm and fuzzy feeling. Your Luck: Enjoy this period as a time to make some of those lasting memories.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

A promising new relationsh­ip needs careful handling. Don’t be too influenced by what has gone before. Maybe someone needs to be given their marching orders. Expecting too much too soon is a danger. Say what you really mean and not what you think is expected of you. At times it is best to bring romance into your own warm and fuzzy world rather than share it with others. Your Luck: A mixed bag this week should be balanced by a relaxed and low-key weekend.

Libra September 24 – October 23

It is a romantic time with plenty of chances for celebratio­n and fun. Those still looking for love must determine to be choosy and not take second best. You have waited this long, so give it a bit more time perhaps? Those who are settled with a partner find a way to make this week special. Do you both deserve a treat? Why not! Socially on a high, be sure to share the fun! Your Luck: Someone a bit pushy should be put off until next week. Don’t waste your time.
