CANCER (June 21-July 22): Socialise, take a day trip and spend time with people you find creative and mentally stimulating, but don’t get drawn into someone else’s plans if they involve money. Joint ventures aren’t likely to pan out as planned.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Make your mark by doing something that will make a difference. Get involved in an organisation that shares your beliefs. Spend time with people you can learn from, and steer clear of anyone who tends to be a bad influence.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t act on an assumption. It’s important to analyse whatever situation you face earnestly before you take a leap of faith. Use your intelligence, not your emotions, when it comes time to make a decision.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Look inwards and prepare to make any adjustments that will bring about positive change. Stick to a budget and refuse to let anyone use persuasive tactics to push you to take on more than you can handle.

LEO (July 23-Aug 22): Live within your means. Don’t let anyone talk you into something you know you shouldn’t do. Put your energy into physical self-improvements. Get fit and get healthy. Make calculated decisions, not snap decisions, and avoid making a regrettable mistake.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22): Speak up and do things that will make a difference to you, those you love or your community. Engage in creative endeavours and nurture important relationships. Romance will enhance your life and bring you closer to the one you love.

LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22): Deal with friends or relatives carefully. You aren’t likely to share the same point of view and are best off keeping your opinions to yourself for the time being. Don’t let anyone dump his or her responsibilities in your lap. SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21): Share your emotions, but don’t get worked up if someone doesn’t agree with you. Take information offered and consider if the suggestions made are in your best interest. Refuse to get involved in arguments or challenges that could lead to injury. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Brush off the past so you can move forward without baggage. Learn from the past instead of living in it. Make personal improvements that make you feel good about the way you look. Plan to have some fun. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): The changes you want to make should be planned carefully. Gauge the cost and extent of any home or self-improvements and set a budget you know you can handle. Discipline will pay off, and intelligence will win out over brute force.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Channel your energy wisely. You’ll be subject to criticism if you get involved in situations that entail excess or indulgent behaviour. Stay focused on what’s best for you and avoid unwanted opposition and change. Abide by the rules. PISCES (Feb 19-March 20): An interesting idea will turn into a reward. Explore the possibilities and consider how you can make your money work for you. Home improvements, real estate and socialising are favoured, and financial gains or gifts are apparent.
