Horoscopes

Virgo

August 24 – September 23

Sometimes you can be quite impressive. It would happen more often if you could only make the most of that charm and talent. Building confidence this week revolves around a certain partnership. Bold talking brings strong reactions. Just be ready to deal with them in a charming and practical way. If handing someone a dilemma this week, try to also hand them the solution. Your Luck: If they think it was their own idea, so much the better!

Capricorn

December 22 – January 20

Sometimes we all have to agree to disagree, don’t we? Even though it goes against your feelings and beliefs this week, try to be flexible. As much as you feel in the right it is not desirable to be too pushy. Relax in the evenings and don’t forget that just because someone loves you it does not mean they should be taken for granted. Your Luck: Busy as you are, show how much someone means to you this weekend.

Taurus

April 21 – May 21

There are good times to make changes and less helpful ones. We are all different. Aim to make life easier and simpler by using your talents and imagination to the full. Thinking about what others would do given your situation can often help. Balance is important and so there is no need to go rushing off in either one direction or the other. Your Luck: Be choosy.

Libra

September 24 – October 23

Being creative is what you are all about but sometimes practical issues (such as work) get in the way. This week you are called upon to do something mundane that you consider not worthy of your talents. Even so, the result is important to someone. Have you considered how much this contribution is valued? To have the ability to give to others is a gift. Your Luck: Remember that talents are meant to be shared.

Aquarius

January 21 – February 19

On weeks when we feel lacking it is easy to think that others feel the same about us. Not true! Gather in some of the love offered and surround yourself with it. Extending your hand in friendship is all that is needed. It can be very powerful. Cup of tea, anyone? If you don’t feel like going out then just share a few minutes chatting with those around you. Your Luck: A slow week, maybe, but you can still move ahead.

Gemini

May 22 – June 21

Breaking new ground at home could be as simple as doing those long-awaited practical jobs. How that affects others will soon be clear. Expect praise where it is due. What if it isn’t forthcoming? Then praise yourself and enjoy a small treat. Confidence comes from within and does not have to rely on others. You have so much to give in love and support. Your Luck: Good friends are worth making an effort for.

Scorpio

Octover 24 - November 22

I am not going to ask you to be more generous to someone who has upset you. This week is more about taking a step away from them than making a stand. On the business front you have many routine things to be getting on with. Romance is for leisure time and nearer home. Travel or holiday plans may be disrupted but only temporarily. Your Luck: Happy and optimistic comes from within and can be shared!

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

You feel like being dynamic and positive but what about those around you? Getting people moving is sometimes a thankless task. Even so, have a try! Starting close to home, get others involved in a bit of DIY or cleaning the windows or car. Have a laugh, tea and a chat! Be in good company by putting in just a little bit more oomph! Your Luck: That bright smile is not just for decoration you know. Use it as often as possible.

Cancer

June 22 – July 22

This week may take you away from the things that you want to do. It is irritating but plans can go astray. This is, however, temporary, so don’t lose sight of your goal! Action is needed on the romantic side if it is your intention to progress a current relationship. Just being ‘nice’ is not enough. Is it time for a grand gesture? Your Luck: Being more positive about your feelings is necessary if progress is to be made.

Sagittarius

November 23 - December 21

Having a strong feeling about a loved one is good. Are you, however, trying to get them to change their mind about something? In this instance practical suggestions can be much more worthwhile than making demands. Show the different ways that are possible. You dislike being nagged at, which is understandable. Please remember that when dealing with others this week. Your Luck: Taking a strong stand does not have to mean being pushy.

Aries

March 21 – April 20

Be an individual now by using your talents and imagination. There are many ways to live your life, even if you are currently in a rut. Any confusion is usually a result of panic, so do your best to remain calm. You could consider making a list of what is right in your life and another about what is wrong (if anything!). This is your starting point. Your Luck: Good doors are waiting to be opened.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Practical issues seem to be dogging you at the moment. However much you want to pursue a pet project, these seem to be interfering. Why not take a couple of days to be really dynamic about it? Press ahead and don’t let lethargic people slow you down. Others will appreciate a confident approach. Sometimes it is better to take control, especially if others cannot be bothered! Your Luck: Direct contact and an injection of charm and humour should work wonders.
