Your Stars

- By Linda Shaw

ARIES Mar 21 - April 19

Rounding up support may be harder than you expected. Use this week to network and research, so you can reap the rewards next Monday. You’re having a greater impact than you dared believe. You’re gathering momentum and there are plenty of followers. The real issue is, do you know where you’re leading them? And is the game more fun than the destinatio­n? Important questions.

TAURUS Apr 20 - May 20

This may not be the best time for romance, but emotional drama is yours for the taking. Until next week, damage control is the best you can hope for. In fact, energies might best be focused at work, where creative brilliance will bring out your best. You’ve forgotten how many of your talents are wasting away while you focus on fears. This is your chance to unearth your courage.

GEMINI May 21 - June 20

Power struggles with bosses and angry fights with lovers are virtually guaranteed. So before you embark on a war you don’t want to wage, look carefully at your life. If you’re ready to move on, do it now. If not, you’ll have to watch that mouth carefully for another week. This is one of those times when stomping out of the house is a real possibilit­y. But an extremely bad idea. Behave yourself, till you no longer need to.

CANCER June 21 - Jul 22

That stodgy feeling is about to lift. For now you’ll continue to wade through the sludge, wondering why each tiny step feels like a mile. Concentrat­e on getting your body in shape for the onslaught to come. A few balancing acts will soon be called for but for now, rememberin­g to eat your greens is taxing enough. Meanwhile, give the family a call. They miss you. And pay all your bills on time.

LEO Jul 23 - Aug 22

Watch the finances. That absurd arrogance can run away with you, taking your common sense with it. Put the ego away and make sure you have all the facts before risking any real money. Keep an eye on the moral issues. An offer that seems too good to be true, will be. The planets are in a peculiar mood and you’re not in a place to discern. You know how honest you are at heart.

VIRGO Aug 23 - Sep 22

Some nice little trips are on the cards as soon as the planets stop messing with your life. Even more exciting, those carefully hidden romantic truths are about to be discovered. Better sweep up your back yard – it’s going to be looked at. This could be the perfect time to ask yourself what you really have to hide. And to discover that, for a gossip like you (yes, you) getting it all out in the open is so much more fun.

LIBRA Sep 23 - Oct 22

There could be some disappoint­ments this week, but if you wait a while, you’ll see the fates are working in your favour. Projects that weren’t as fabulous as you thought will fall flat. But the ones designed for success will take off like miniature rockets. Pay no attention to those trying to stop you. You’re more creative — and much more inspired — than anyone around you. Flaunt it.

SCORPIO Oct 23 - Nov 21

Your smoulderin­g side is hotting up, but the love life is set to explode. Perhaps the two are related. Are you having a steamy affair while swearing fidelity at home? Are you hiding from everyone in an attempt to recreate a relationsh­ip with yourself? You’re treading dangerous ground. Not that you mind. Excitement is what you live for. Make sure you know what you really want.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 22 - Dec 21

This isn’t a great time to start throwing your weight around — not if you’re hoping for positive results. So just for a while, let your life come to you. Flexibilit­y (which you have) and patience (which you’re working on) will get you through an otherwise frustratin­g period. And if ambitions are temporaril­y off, think love instead. Or not. This is your chance to behave like a total brat — and get away with it.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

If you let them, these insane planets will eventually push you in the right direction. This isn’t something you can control, so don’t bother fighting the process. Besides, your powers are at their peak, so tune into that part of you that loves a challenge — and charge! Keep a close watch on the spending. Money burns enormous holes in your pockets when you’re in this mood.

AQUARIUS Jan 20 - Feb 18

Get a neck massage. Your spine is stiffening up – always an indicator of rigid thinking. And since you’re not usually so stubborn, something is clearly off. So here’s the deal: this is your official fun week. Whatever’s not working can be completely ignored until next Monday. For now, answer every invitation with a “yes” and every complaint with “I’ll call you back”.

PISCES Feb 19 - Mar 20

An absurd determinat­ion to finish everything at once is pushing you way beyond your own limits. Take special care. As you know, your health is always the first thing to go when you do this to yourself. So swallow your pride and ask for help. And learn the value of patience. Then, while you’re patting yourself on the back, take note that a stalled project is almost on the move again. Save some time for fun too.
