YOUR STARS

(TUESDAY, 12 SEPTEMBER 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – You are no different from others in having fears – but you can be different by proceeding in spite of these fears. This will give you a head start over those unable to do so. Seek to allow for the fact that things are liable to take just a littler longer than you had expected. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – Watch out; what seems on the surface quite innocent is a serious pitfall that requires instantaneous evasive action. Any tendency to prevail on or live in the past must be strongly combated. It is not the good old days, but the good new days ahead that count. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Try to combat a tendency to behave selfishly with all the means at your disposal. You are inclined to fit the facts to the theory, but now you know you will be able to avoid this. Do not think that a difference in views and opinions need always develop into an argument. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Do not let yourself be deceived by offers which purport to be free, but are in fact little or nothing of the kind. When making letters or correspondence always make an effort to express yourself precisely. Do make sure you are where you can hear clearly what is being said to you. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – Do not confuse what is personal with what is of professional concern. There is a tendency to feel tired which while it could be due to lack of sleep or a diet deficient in vitamins, it is just as liable to result from an inclination towards indolence. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – Do not be envious of those who have more than you but rather be sorry for those who have less than you. Make sure you address a correspondence right; do not leave out the street name or house number. Why not present your partner with a bunch of flowers when you get home. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – There is no better way of overcoming your fear of doing what has to be done than to do it. Making excuses will only postpone it. It is better to make a few concessions and swallow a bit of your pride then to lose a valued friendship. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – Though last year you were not entirely successful with your projects is no reason to be discouraged but a very good reason to make really concerted effort. There is a need for more patience and forbearance and you should not indulge in euphoria. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – Look at your bills and review them carefully; you may have been overcharged or worse still, have been given the wrong receipt. It will not be easy for you to get down to things and you will have to use more of the willpower you very well know is there. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Beware of carrying two intimate relationships simultaneously; you neither have the time and the resources. You will tend to have some rather fixed ideas and should try being a bit more flexible. Listen closely to what others are saying and seek to learn from it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Avoid boiling vegetable to such a degree that most vitamins are destroyed. An occurrence that seems the same as something that happened previously is in fact nothing of the kind. Do not inhibit your emotions nor allow them to take precedence over your reason. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – There is every reason for you to be ambitious, but try to avoid setting your aims unrealistically high. Do not allow others to take advantage of your reluctance to use force. You will not be satisfied with the way things are going. The solution is somewhere else; not where you where were looking.
