Your stars for 2019
What does hold for you? Is it love, money or your career that will prove the most fruitful? And what or who do you need to avoid? Read on to find out what your stars predict.
CAPRICORN Dec 22 – Jan 20
WORK AND FINANCES: The key to success for you in 2019 will lie in obtaining good financial advice. Ensure that you seek more than one opinion, as the goalposts are changing. Always remember, though, that contentment is just as important as wealth. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: January, July and December mark big turning points in your relationships. A helping hand from someone or advice from inspiring people will set off a positive chain reaction. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: Groups, friends, partners, family and reunions will all take your focus. However, you have aims and goals of your own too. The key to happiness in life will lie partly in finding the balance between your own needs and those of other people.
AQUARIUS Jan 21 – Feb 19
WORK AND FINANCES: Bountiful Jupiter in your career zone suggests you are ready to flap your wings in a new direction. This is the year you can flee the coop. You will be able to opt for a long break or a new adventure. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Your status could boom and this may be via strong relationships, both business and personal. Aim to find stability and excitement in your general pursuits and love will follow suit. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: Significant developments in your daily routine will dictate that change must be met with a strong, healthy mind and an equally strong body. A nutritious diet and investment in your well-being will boost your energy levels. Your home, family and spiritual life will be the scenes of major change.
PISCES Feb 20 – Mar 20
WORK AND FINANCES: This is the year of adventure for you through travel, career development, personal change or a growing family. New ventures you embark on will reflect your fresh, pioneering perspective. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Be prepared to forge a path of happiness and expect love and romance, especially in August. However, Neptune may predispose you to being idealistic about your relationships, so ensure that you are practical. No one is perfect. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: You will not be afraid to actively pursue happiness this year. You will look for it in exciting adventure, spirituality and in travel. Peak times in which you will feel energised and revitalised are July and August. Make the most of these times.
ARIES Mar 21 – Apr 20
WORK AND FINANCES: This is an excellent year to show just what you are made of as you could gain strength and stability in your career, status and general direction. Be prepared for big changes in September. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: The lunar eclipse on January 21 will focus your attention on making your home your castle – and on the importance of living in a happy and relaxed home. Singles should mingle this autumn. People with partners will find a way to establish more peace in their lives. Compromise is key. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: A strong health routine will boost your happiness but you must find ways to soothe irritability or you may suffer mild inflammation such as allergies. Find ways to moderate explosive tempers.
TAURUS Apr 21 – May 21
WORK AND FINANCES: Be ready to collaborate with someone with the same financial aims as you. However, it is vital you check that your principles and goals align or you could come a cropper. There is no room for sentimentality in agreements that are purely financial. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: This will be a big year for change in a key relationship. This may involve travel, a deeper understanding of your spiritual connection or legal matters – or all of the above. Key developments are likely to occur around January, July and December. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: Health-wise, you are on a learning curve that will benefit you. This is the year that you should enlist the help of experts in their field, such as a personal trainer, dietitian or yoga instructor.
GEMINI May 22 – June 22
WORK AND FINANCES: Be prepared for new opportunities and to re-evaluate how you see your work moving forward. Consider carefully any chances to flap your wings. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Love will not escape you this year. So singles, be prepared to meet your match. And couples, get set to ramp up the passion in your partnership. Your family relationships will feel reinvigorated by travel, meeting new people and engaging in exciting ventures. Be open to change. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: It is the year to flap your wings a little in exciting and potentially ground-breaking areas. It is time to step outside your comfort zone. You may feel a little vulnerable but rest assured that, by the end of the year, your efforts will have paid off well.
CANCER June 23 – July 23
WORK AND FINANCES: Your status is changing and this will feel exciting, but it may also be disruptive. The world, though, will offer so many opportunities, you will be hard-pressed to turn them down. Your success lies in discerning which opportunities will lead to fulfilment. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Expect to deepen your existing relationships and to meet new people, too. Singles may meet someone who appears to be fated to be in your life for a while. Partnerships need nurturing. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: You will enjoy boosting your health and well-being in many new and potentially ground-breaking ways. You will also find that beautiful places, meditation, dance and yoga will all fuel your health and happiness in 2019. Be receptive to change.
LEO July 24 – Aug 23
WORK AND FINANCES: Opportunities in January and December will streamline your work and could boost your finances. You may be ready to broaden your horizons work-wise, but must consider whether a collaboration will be fruitful or just an unnecessary distraction. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Developments with family could signal new commitments for parents as your home life will take much of the focus this year. You are ready to begin something new this year and change will be driven by your emotions. Fools often rush in. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: You owe it to yourself to boost your health so that you are able to work ‘smarter’ – not ‘harder’. Consider learning and honing a new skill. It is likely you will enjoy musical and creative activities.
VIRGO Aug 24 – Sep 23
WORK AND FINANCES: You may be increasingly inclined to work with a large organisation or friends to see a project thrive. Do not be afraid to be inventive and creative. A new investment or the chance to put in place a realistic budget will help to boost your coffers. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: This will be an upbeat year where you will gain self-esteem and influence right across the board – both professionally and personally. Travel, networking, socialising and broadening your scope will signal a buoyant and possibly fruitful time. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: This year it is time to stop thinking about other people and spare a thought for yourself. August will be an excellent time to take a decent break and for re-inventing your health regime.
LIBRA Sep 24 – Oct 23
WORK AND FINANCES: Money may fly out of your hands as quickly as it arrives, so ensure you set up a sound budget if you wish to save for a rainy day or to build collateral. Look for work that has meaning for you. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Prepare for a year of change. If you are single and looking for enduring love, you may well find your match. It is also a good year for couples to gain more depth of understanding and a strong sense of nurturing in their partnerships. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: Spend time boosting your health. It is vital you find energy-boosting food stuffs and fitness regimes that replenish your energy. There will be a strong pull to a family reunion or the return to an old haunt in July that should boost your well-being.
SCORPIO Oct 24 – Nov 22
WORK AND FINANCES: Avoid negative thinking. Focus on abundance and fulfilment instead. Jupiter will be in your money zone and could replenish low financial reserves. But it may predispose you towards overspending too, so be careful with investments. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: Work commitments, travel, and your communication skills will have a major impact on your relationships. Love will conquer all, but only if you work at it. Your efforts should be rewarded. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: All things left field and out of the ordinary will appeal to you in 2019, bringing the likelihood that you will embrace new ideas and health practices that will boost your well-being. A trip overseas or to revisit old friends will be a turning point for you.
SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 – Dec 21
WORK AND FINANCES: Jupiter in your sign until early December will encourage you to take risks, so be ready to head down new avenues. However, make sure your plans are based on facts and not speculation. LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS: You are set to be feeling more upbeat than you have for a long time which will put a smile on your face. You will also feel more sociable and outgoing than usual. This is a good time to boost your relationships, but don’t be too idealistic. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS: To find happiness in 2019, you need to find the delicate balance between optimism and high expectations on the one hand and realism and practicalities on the other. Expect mid-May and June to be the high points of the year for you.
