Libra

September 24 – October 23 In a perfect world you just know that you would be happy. Is that right? People see you as being placid and peace-loving, and you are. Even you though, Libra, can be bored. Meeting someone who is not perfect fires your imaginatio­n and makes your week exciting. What does that tell you? Be prepared to try something new even if you feel that it is not perfect. Perhaps you can make it so? Your Luck: There is no shortage of optimism around you. Feed on it.

Aquarius

Januray 21 – February 19 Making lists of what you need and what you want can be very interestin­g, even enlighteni­ng. Do it this week and get a more balanced view of your life. Instead of regretting what you do not have, consider what you do have. You even have the option of ‘what you hope for.’ If reality and logic seem to be holding you down, try using a little imaginatio­n. Your Luck: Solutions often come to you in dreams and ideas flourish in the early hours. Relax.

Gemini

May 22 – June 21 Something in your past, you feel, still needs a solution. Why? Perhaps it doesn’t! Having too much time to think can be counter-productive. Move forward this week rather than go back. See today as the beginning and not as part of anything else. You are newborn. Where will you go? What will you do? The beginning of autumn brings with it analysis of what has gone before. Don’t dwell on this. Your Luck: Forward-thinking is the way to happiness.

Scorpio

October 24 – November 22 Much of this week may be ‘spoken for’. Busy you! However, there is one task you see ahead that could be more easily done. Make this a creative time when you think of different ways to achieve your goals. Some will make real sense and others will be non-starters. An open mind is a beautiful thing. Imaginatio­n and desire flow freely through it. The result is often a joy that only the truly liberated can experience. Your Luck: Let it be you this week!

Pisces

February 20 – March 20 Firing up your brain, this week, could take the form of a brisk country walk or a short, sharp game challenge. Either way you should aim to get the edge on others mentally. What cannot be solved by a physical or monetary approach can possibly be solved with logic. Consider something that everyone needs and you could find this a starting point. Your Luck: Everyone has their own likes and desires. Tap into these to find a way forward.

Cancer

June 22 – July 22 Aim to be sincere in your communicat­ions this week. Mercury the messenger turns direct by the weekend. Meetings go better then and any explanatio­ns are more easily understood. Use this to your advantage. A chance comment by someone you admire gives hope of more contact in the future. Choosing the right time and place, whatever you are doing, is crucial. Your Luck: Taking control of yourself and, sometimes, others, brings the best results.

Sagittariu­s

November 23 – December 21 Being a far-seeing sign, you are able to project your mind easily into the future. What you think you see can be confusing. Sagittariu­s, it is mostly guesswork. This week, stay in the here and now to find the best and most enjoyable way forward. This moment in time is for you to fully enjoy. People talk about living in the ‘here and now’ but how often do we truly do it? Your Luck: You now have the chance to relax and let life flow through you.

Aries

March 21 – April 20 A surge of physical energy and activity sees you bounding through this week. Heading towards something new and exciting? Someone may say that you are running away from the real world. Rather more you are trying to find that world with a fresh attitude and set of beliefs. Be sure to put negative comments behind you and concentrat­e on the positive results you can achieve. Your Luck: Remember that keeping up energy means looking after yourself!

Leo

July 23 – August 23 There are passions all around but some remain hidden to you. Being aware of what others are thinking is to your advantage, even if you see no immediate benefit. Cut out the small talk and, as the weekend approaches and Mercury the messenger turns direct, have those probing conversati­ons. Ask questions and push for answers. You are easy-going That doesn’t mean that you should be taken for granted. Your Luck: What do you need to know?.

Capricorn

December 22 – January 20 Others look to you for guidance and leadership this week. Some may even look to you for entertainm­ent! As our much-loved comedian Norman Wisdom found out, ‘putting it out there’ can be scary but successful. So many of your talents and gifts are little used. Why not develop them more? In the process you can make friends and spark happy memories. Your Luck: You can’t give everyone what they want, but give what you feel you want to give.

Taurus

April 21 – May 21 SYou can be a sensitive soul and this period shows that sensitivit­y to the full. Concern for others seems to be taking up a big chunk of your thinking time. This is a week for seeking solutions to long and short-term problems. Consider, if someone else came to you with these questions, what you would tell them. Write yourself a letter if necessary. Here you will find the way forward. Your Luck: Turn yourself into an agony aunt/uncle this week.

August 24 – September 23

The feeling that progress is slowing down, either at work or in a relationsh­ip, can be irritating. However, show others that you are moving forward and being creative. They will soon get the message that you could move on without their help. There is a lovely spark about you this week. This can give a golden glow to those around you if you set the right example. When you feel love or gratitude, show it. Your Luck: Shake the boat and take charge of the oars?
