Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Aquarius January 22 – February 19

Some decisions are easier to make without consultati­on. Indeed, some ‘thinking time’ may be overdue. Still, make it sharp and sweet. Going over a situation will not change it. Overall there is a need to move ahead with business matters in a direct manner. No amount of tact can get around facts. Kindness can be seen as weakness. Your Luck: Keeping work unemotiona­l may not be easy as someone could take a comment personally.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Getting out and seeing things get done may clash with demands at home. Someone who missed your input over the holiday will be pleased to see you again. Unsure where your heart lies? Maybe you have not found the ‘right one’ yet. Really, by now you should know if it is right. The heart is easily confused, especially if there is too much choice! Your Luck: Would you care to curb some of those social shenanigan­s?

Libra September 24 – October 23

Looking back this week is only a waste of time. Those doors are now firmly closed. Sudden demands on your cash could give a few headaches, so plan ahead right away! A friend has advice which will really help in the short term. There is still fun to be had, especially at the weekend. Who said that romance was dead? Well it certainly was not a Libran! Your Luck: You won’t give up on a romantic ideal, but should you?

Pisces February 20 – March 20

The chance to make changes is strong at this time. Feel you need more encouragem­ent? This is more likely to come from family or colleagues than the home. No problem. Sometimes others may be too involved in a situation to see it clearly. Those are not the people to give you a real opinion. Someone you have not seen for some time seems ideal. Your Luck: That energy is still thundering through you. Where do you want to concentrat­e it next?

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Technology seems to be on your side this week, when it eases a problem at work. With a strong emphasis on business and finances you are concentrat­ing hard. That is good, for someone may try to mislead you. Spending too much cash this week could be due to trying to impress someone. Don’t bother. If they are not impressed already they never will be! Your Luck: Do your research if making any kind of investment and, if unsure, ask an expert!

Scorpio October 24 – November 23

Good things are mixed up with bad this week. Someone can bring both pleasure and confusion in your heart. Step back if you need to and get on with something completely different. Helping someone out gives you an interest in their future which you come to enjoy. Children and animals tug at your heartstrin­gs this week. By all means help, but stay practical financiall­y. Your Luck: Hard to keep a balanced view?

Aries March 21 – April 20

Being free to talk about your hopes and dreams is important to you this week. Good advice comes through someone you look up to. Listen well. It is not ‘one size fits all’ so pick and choose the bits that fit you. Responsibi­lity rests lightly on you. Do you know something that others do not? Awkward silences and, indeed, conversati­ons, will only exist if you are not being honest. Your Luck: Don’t assume that others don’t know your mind.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Make the most of an energetic and enterprisi­ng week. As so much is achieved now, things slacken off towards the weekend. Midweek, however, an intense encounter makes you think hard about the future and your part in it. Intense relationsh­ips really float your boat, so get sailing! Lust could overcome love at the weekend, so take care. Well, temptation seems to be everywhere. Your Luck: Curb that wandering eye if you are happily settled.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

If you cannot be open about feelings now, then when will that happen? Time to find out what others really think. Using that active imaginatio­n can get you out of a sticky spot come the weekend. Feeling guilty about something? Aim to put it right in the longer term. Not everything can be done at once and you soon realise that. Your Luck: Putting something on the back boiler can work as long as you communicat­e.

Taurus April 21 – May 19

The natural charm that you are able to conjure up serves you well this week. It also helps with your romantic life as no-one wants to say or do anything to upset you. Someone who has attracted you for some time is more likely to be open to suggestion­s now. Again, expressing your feelings is essential. Really, you should be honest with an admirer, whichever way it swings. Your Luck: Break barriers, not hearts this week.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Working out a plan or changes with others sees the best chance of progress now. A journey may have to be changed to fit in with others or the weather. Being in demand here and there can be exhausting but don’t let that curb enthusiasm. Burn the candle at both ends and expect to get scorched. Is there another way? Perhaps inviting folk to your house? Your Luck: So much is changeable right now.
