Horoscopes

- by Carlos O’Connor

Libra September 24 – October 23

A great time for communicat­ing your ideas and feelings. Be set to impress those you come into contact with. It is a loving week with Venus and Mercury priming you for romantic communicat­ions. Intimate chats and twinkling eyes abound. It is also a great week for family and friends. Show your appreciati­on by getting folk to come together and relax. Your Luck: You don’t have to break the bank to please others. They can bring some goodies when they visit.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

An attempt at taking charge in a certain situation may not go according to plan. However, surround yourself with like-minded and supportive people. In this way, working as part of a team will get you where you want to be. Confidence reigns and you will ask for what you want in no uncertain terms. Venus influences both love and money, which you do notice at the weekend! Your Luck: Relax a little with the cash this weekend. This is a time that memories are made of.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Confidence is high and, with Venus firmly in your corner, plough energy into your love life. Those who prefer could give the family a boost by hosting a last-minute fun get-together at the weekend. Listen carefully and respond honestly to any hopes and feelings shared. What someone close wants now, you could be wanting in a few months time! Keep an open heart and mind. Your Luck: Fun should be word that you think of every day this week. Give it to yourself and others.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

A time when you tend to listen more to your instincts. Even so, don’t let a dreamy atmosphere lead you to an impractica­l decision. In a loving and caring atmosphere it is possible to solve your own and others’ problems. Life is not always perfect but it is in your power to make others feel better about themselves. Creatively, the weekend sees you looking forward to a new venture. Your Luck: Have the confidence in your own talents to move forward in a creative way.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Keep moving forward, but at your own pace. Deal with any small matters or niggling health concerns. Allow time to clear your mind and relax. Live in the here and now. Heard it all before? Well, listen to your instincts this week. They will tell you what you don’t want as well as what you do. Someone new to your social scene shows a great deal of promise. Your Luck: In an emotional week you have the benefit of a clear mind and a fertile imaginatio­n.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Take a great opportunit­y to tackle something new. Too busy? Don’t regret what you didn’t do rather than what you did. Trust your instincts more and worry less about what others think. Finances need your attention right through the week to avoid annoying problems later on. It really is just a matter of being more organised. Use your brain. It’s great at the moment! Your Luck: Make this weekend a romantic one. Put your worries behind you and plan some fun.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

A quiet start to the week soon picks up as your social life is given a boost. Be prepared to listen to others and be flexible. This gets the most out of any discussion­s. Certainly you feel the need to let off steam. Letting others know exactly how you feel is a great tension-reliever (mainly for you!) Holding back is just not in your nature. Plan the weekend for maximum fun. Your Luck: Cash gives confidence in certain situations but try hard to be practical too.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Be prepared to move forward on a long-held ambition. Venus and Mars together are stirring up your love life (and I mean stirring!) Any long-term disagreeme­nts come out and need attention. You find that actions speak louder than words, especially on any new projects. It is a great time for dealing with improvemen­ts to the home and setting up plans for the future. Be bold! Your Luck: Have the confidence to take charge when you see others are confused.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Those not yet attached find this a great family week. Get together! With Venus and Scorpio on your tail, what should you expect? Well, your love life brings amazing news. Maybe you decide to take a romance a step further. Could it be that the two of you could soon become three? More? Everything this week leads up to these great moments at the weekend. Your Luck: A time for making memories and sharing hopes and dreams. Enjoy your weekend.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

With social life on a high, this is sure to affect your mood and approach to work. A hiccup at the beginning of the week should not put you off making a new start, perhaps on an old idea. Getting physically active fires your passion for many things. Love is there for you but on some days needs a bit of effort. Too many irons in the fire could scorch your energy. Your Luck: Enthusiast­ic as you are it is still best to pace yourself during the week. Take time to enjoy!

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Home life should be going well and good news brings a boost to your wellbeing. Midweek influence from Saturn could mean negotiatio­ns hitting a hard place. Do you have a plan B? Be sharp on finances and don’t let anyone take unfair advantage. Plan something for the weekend to give the whole family a ‘good life’ feeling – perhaps outdoor activities. Your Luck: A new and adventurou­s activity at the weekend gives you the zip and zing that you need.
