Cancer

June 22 – July 22 In seeking the answer to a question you will come across more than a few possibilit­ies. How confusing! Still, that could signal the fact that it is not yet time to make a decision either way. It’s a bit like wading through a weedy garden to get to a beautiful rose. You will get there and find more than one. Enjoy. Everyone has their opinion of what you should be doing. Nothing new there then. Your Luck: Following your heart and instincts feels right. It is.

Scorpio

October 24 – November 22 Being in a different place this week can be exciting. It can also make you feel apprehensi­ve, insecure and wary. You are not alone. Charm and knowledge bring someone close to you so what starts off as a worry turns into a revelation. By next week you will have so much more confidence. Is it a good time to make that important decision or sort out those tricky finances? Your Luck: You feel now that there is more support around you. Good.

Pisces

February 20 – March 20 Life is a gift. Maybe there are times when you feel a bit worried about opening it. Don’t let ignorance and apprehensi­on hold you back. Not all things have to done alone. Throw yourself into a group who aim to help others. In doing so you will really be helping yourself! Live in the ‘here and now’. Turn to nature and she will show you some wonderful things. Be aware of the beauty around you. Your Luck: You are here to enjoy. Do it.

Leo

July 23 – August 23 There are choices to be made. You know what you like and what you don’t like. This week you may choose something that you do not like now but could like in the future. In love, as in work, it is important to choose the right time. I would also remind you that actions speak louder than words. Enough cliches? Trust your instincts. Your Luck: Is getting a balance between practical considerat­ions and imaginativ­eness wishful thinking?

Sagittariu­s

November 23 – December 21 Someone is really keen to help you this week. Perhaps they feel that it is their purpose in life. They care. You, on the other hand, value your independen­ce and acumen. By being too clever it is possible to drive someone away. Give a little and you will gain a lot. No man or woman is an island. It is boring and, eventually, depressing. So, independen­t as you may prefer to be, reach out. Your Luck: Working as part of a team (even a small one) is for you.

Aries

March 21 – April 20 This is a week for ‘seekers’, a time in which to find the answer to that niggling question. As the week goes on, though, apprehensi­on turns to excitement. What you discover can be totally unexpected and throws a bright light on your future. In a happy and social atmosphere at the weekend it would be easy to score points against someone you dislike. Your Luck: Keep the good feelings in your heart by ignoring the urge to be sharp.

Virgo

August 24 - September 23 Doing something out of your usual zone and being a little anxious means that you ask questions. The person who has the answers could play a big part in your future. You may not be looking for romance. What you are not looking for you will find this weekend. What you were looking for will be quite different from your expectatio­ns. Interested? You should be! Your Luck: Stretch yourself this week. Trust your talents and build your confidence.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 20 Relax and let life wash over you this week. Some things cannot be changed and, in the long run, may turn out for the best. By being flexible you are giving yourself the best chance of finding what you want. You don’t have to climb mountains right now. Let someone else do it. You want someone to find you. Give them a chance to do it. Be aware and stop running in circles. Your Luck: Something is right under your nose.

Taurus

April 21 – May 21 Getting closer to someone important to you is easy this week. You need to take a friendly approach. Remember that it isn’t what you do but how you do it! Avoid being defensive and, instead, give someone a chance to respond honestly. Mars makes for a dynamic approach to any passion-fuelled encounter. Just make sure that your reaction is of a romantic kind. Your Luck: The chances of disagreeme­nt are strong this weekend. Don’t be a grouch!

Libra

September 24 - October 23 Something that has seemed far away comes a little closer this week. It is not something to fear but something to welcome as part of life. There are so many experience­s waiting for you. Is this the time to seek them out? It is said that there is no time like the present. Living in the present or the ‘here and now’ stops you worrying about the future. At the same time, though, it makes that future clearer. Your Luck: Bring someone closer this weekend. Share.

Aquarius

January 21 – February 19 In looking for something that is wrong, all you see are shadows. In taking a lighter approach those shadows disappear. Being optimistic this week will see you move forward and be happier. Want to be a drama queen? Don’t waste your time! Put that smile on your face and be sure that it is reaching your eyes! Others will know if yours are not genuine, so perk up. Your Luck: Demanding to be in a happy place will take you there.
