Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Romance, money and home run alongside each other this week. Of course it is a time for marriages, romance and house moves. If some of this affects you, try not to get to strung out. Look upon challenges as a time to show your abilities. Don’t think you have many? Wrong! Character-building times such as these are a blessing in disguise. Soon you will feel great satisfacti­on. Your Luck: This week you find strengths that you never realised you had.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Passions are rising this week, especially where money is concerned. Perhaps someone close does not realise that there are more important things in life? The need for personal power seems to be growing in society when really we should work together. You will grow closer to someone because you have a shared problem. The solution may not be simple but it will come swiftly. Your Luck: Talk things over quietly with a loved one or an older relative.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Family and friends take up your time this week and you are pleased. A gathering is far more enjoyable than expected. Perhaps you should do it more often? A disagreeme­nt of the past is now behind you and there are big changes afoot. Certainly relationsh­ips are better. If you want romance this weekend you need to go out and look around. Excitement and fun will not come to you. Your Luck: When asking a favour, be tactful and not demanding.

Libra September 24 – October 23

It would be hard to miss out on the romantic summer aura this week. Although you often look for romance, at this moment in time it can fall into your lap! Travel, even small journeys, turn up unexpected people and events. A new gathering is real fun. You could end the week asking why you ‘did not do this before!’ someone who really cares will say ‘I told you so!’ Your Luck: Trying new things with or without a new lover expands your horizons.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Getting to the heart of a loved one’s need may not be easy. Making the effort to listen and be optimistic, though, is what is needed. This is where your charm and genuine interest really show. How many people are lucky enough to have a friend like you, Aquarius? Juggling with cash flow can be trying but, again, you will be pleased that you made the effort. Your Luck: What you give to others this week will come back just when you need it.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

There is a lot to be said this week but do be tactful. The outcome of any discussion depends so much on the way you approach others. Concerns around your work soon melt away when news comes through midweek. Give generously of your time rather than go on a spending spree. It is easy to show how much you appreciate and love someone without breaking the bank. Your Luck: Cash flow needs watching but this is a time of high demand.

Scorpio October 24 - November 22

Friends and relatives may not behave as usual and may appear confused. Someone is not getting their message over very clearly. Could that be you or your partner? A bit of analysis is needed. Ask some questions! Those you want to spend time with may be busy but don’t lose heart. Don’t give a ‘maybe some other time’ response. Arrange a firm time to be together and make it fun. Your Luck: Although this is a fun week it can also be a bit of a puzzle.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Great support from your family and friends shows itself this week when you feel the need. Keep stress away by realising that you can deal with anything that comes your way. Someone who offers advice could turn out to be someone special in your life. Can’t think of love at the moment? Later! Realise that there is so much love and caring around you. Your Luck: Contact someone you have not seen for some time for a clear opinion.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Although you prefer to put others first, this is a time for a little bit of self-indulgence. Feed your mind and body by taking some moments to look after your body and soul. Reflexolog­y, massage or simply getting your partner to rub in some of that fruity cream on your toes? Someone is waiting to look after and spoil you. Be aware of their needs and at the same time feed your own. Your Luck: Everyday routine can be interrupte­d you know!

Sagittariu­s November 23 - December 21

Time out with friends and cosy nights in are on the cards for you. Shuffle that pack to get the most out of the summer. Aim to do something new every week alone or with someone fun. It may be easier to make someone understand how you feel with a letter or email. Sometimes words can get jumbled up face to face or on the phone. Who makes you so nervous? Your Luck: A bit of miscommuni­cation at the weekend is disappoint­ing.

Aries March 21 – April 20

In a week of plotting, planning and intrigue there is never a dull moment. A bit of juggling your cash flow keeps things on an even keel but longer-term planning in this area would be a good idea. Fun is running all through, especially at the weekend. Young members of the family figure in your everyday thoughts more than usual. See how this makes you feel. Your Luck: Fun, rather than romance is what brings a smile to your face, Aries.
