Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Staying optimistic starts with little things. Small jobs bring satisfacti­on when the overall picture emerges. Spending time with children in any way makes you smile. Something that brings you closer to a relative is a challenge. This could relate to discoverie­s about the past. Something to explore together, perhaps? Keeping an open mind leads in the right direction. Your Luck: Cooperatio­n with those close brings surprises and some emotions you’ve never felt before.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Some offers that come your way this week are both surprising and pleasing. However, remember that you often put others before yourself. That is admirable but, at this time, could be misguided. Others may be in position to help free up your time. Your decisions now need to be for your own good going forward and nothing to do with what others want. Your Luck: Creating space for yourself is not selfish if, in the end, it will help others.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Sometimes this week you feel like going crazy. You want to move forward. When the chance comes, you hesitate. Shocked that things have changed? We all need a period of adjustment. We will have it, but over time. Right now you must nurture yourself. Give yourself a treat, a present, a foot massage? An unexpected bit of luck at the weekend cheers you up. Your Luck: So many people are feeling the same as you are. What has been their solution?

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Starting the week with lots of energy? Use some to improve your wellbeing. That doesn’t necessaril­y mean dashing about. Pamper and find relaxing techniques for your body. Ignoring your needs won’t work and certainly won’t relax you! Just talking to a friend about your feelings helps. Who knows, they may even have the perfect answer! Your Luck: Keep an open mind but do avoid going over old ground. Some methods will never work.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Recent weeks have shown that you have more to offer than others expect. Maybe going in a new direction, if only for this short time, has given you something special. Certain gaps in our lives are not always obvious until something suddenly fills them. Now you have time to look hard to see what has been lacking. Put something in place to surge you forward. Your Luck: Some lightbulb moments can be a little shocking. Were you becoming complacent?

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Many things that would have worried you in the past now seem unimportan­t. Indeed, you’re surprised you ever took some matters seriously. Now you start to feel a letting go, a kind of freedom. Be ready to leap at an opportunit­y at the weekend, but don’t take risks. Think about small beginnings becoming giant opportunit­ies. Your Luck: A sudden inspiratio­nal moment does the world of good for a close relationsh­ip. When you think of others, let it be known.

Leo July 22 – August 23

Someone you’ve been helping out recently may find a new avenue for this. Your life has certain blanks at the moment and this could be one of them. Just keeping busy may not be the answer but trying something new could be. By ‘new’ I mean a mental or physical challenge that’s not a foregone conclusion. Are we going for the unknown here? Your Luck: There’s a degree of freedom in the current situation. Make the most of it by being more mentally adventurou­s.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

As you turn a corner in your everyday life, consider what you truly need. Have you been suppressin­g your more creative and nurturing side? Getting involved with something that brings both together could be truly satisfying. Yes, satisfacti­on is the key to happiness. That may well come from outside of you. Make it feel welcome. Your Luck: A craving for physical contact may not be possible right now. It’s hard to adjust but, please, do look to the future.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Your idea of what success means is changing every day. A lot of rethinking has led you on a new path. Frustratin­gly you’re not yet able to move ahead. Stay calm. The longer game now will bring the best results. Concentrat­e on avoiding problems rather than leaping ahead and creating them. With your current energy that’s very hard, I know. Your Luck: Where others are able to influence you, be sure they’re supportive. True friends are never negative.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Before you start on a new path, take a breath. A few days of just ‘chilling’ will give you a more balanced approach. A certain amount of mental burnout may have occurred over the last few weeks. Remember that you’re not responsibl­e for everyone else. Looking back now is just too negative for words. Really! Can’t you see that sunshine ahead? Enjoy! Your Luck: This is an adjustment period and this week is confusing. Return to your tested set of values.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

A slow start to the week is in your favour. Any problems with work need to be kept within balance. Why worry about the past or things that you cannot change? Your energy may be low and that is not good for your health and wellbeing. Keep a keen eye open for a business opportunit­y at the weekend. Yes, you do deserve a bit of luck right now, Agree? Your Luck: Nothing can be taken for granted but that does not mean that everything has to change.
