Moon sign: Sagittariu­s

Rising sign: Pisces

You’re tougher than you look. That soft compassion­ate exterior fools people into thinking they can abuse you and get away with it. Sometimes — when your empathy overrides your need for self-preservati­on — they can. But those days are over. You’ve just moved into a fabulous new cycle — one that’s about you and your happiness. True love can be explored next year, if you’re keen. This year is about you, your career and your financial growth. You’ll have to be willing to take a few chances, but there’s an adventurer inside you that’s been longing to come out and play. Look for interestin­g journeys, and a friend who’ll take the next step with you. Fear of failure is no longer a reason to fail. It’s an opportunit­y to proceed with courage. In the long run, you have nothing to lose. Only to gain.

GEMINI

May 21 - June 20

You may have to admit that you might have been wrong if you really want things to start going right again. Career changes are in the pipeline, provided you can cage your ego for a moment. Then, when you’re looking round for back-up, re-examine your love life. Here’s your chance to fulfil a dream and score a few points. So ask for help, confess your feelings and stay honest.

CANCER

June 21 - Jul 22

You’re positioned to attract the kind of romance you want, provided you know what that is. Choose carefully, bearing in mind that not everything can be measured by externals. Flexibilit­y is needed and a willingnes­s to change your patterns. At work, things are moving too quickly for your liking. Relax. You don’t have to be in charge of every button to direct the ship.

LEO

Jul 23 - Aug 22

Bored and stifled at work? Your creative spark needs new direction. Show them what you can do, or move on and start afresh. Pointing fingers hardly ever helps. Even so, you may have to prepare for some open conflicts, both in love and work. Don’t worry, but try not to annoy everyone you know. You’ll need some support for that fabulous new project that’s about to spring into action.

Keep a space in your diary.

VIRGO

Aug 23 - Sep 22

Stress and good health seldom go together, so work on clearing your mind of excess baggage if you want to stay in shape. Your body is specially sensitive now, so take care of it. At work, a situation you thought was unfair is sorting itself out. There’s money to be made and status to be claimed. But in this case, patience really is a virtue. Take a break while you wait. Make new friends.

LIBRA

Sep 23 - Oct 22

Money is relatively great now, coming at you from unexpected places. The only snag is that your common sense has deserted you as you wave those notes about like flags. Watch yourself, or someone will take advantage of your gentle nature. That aside, you’re having a ball. Your social life is fascinatin­g, and your love life is just complicate­d enough to keep you on your toes. Start packing.

SCORPIO

Oct 23 - Nov 21

Obstructio­ns melt away in the heat of your enthusiasm and determinat­ion. So if an impressive career is what you’re after, get to it. In fact, many of you could be changing jobs — or even career paths — before the year is out. Start planning now. Sure, there’ll be power struggles in the short term but that’s only because they’re so much fun to win. Think big. The universe is most definitely on your side.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 22 - Dec 21

Your feelings are changing and if you’ve been denying the problem, Tuesday’s Sagittaria­n full moon is ready to wake you up. What’s most important now is that you’re honest about your needs. If you stick to what’s right for you, a solution will present itself. Don’t rush. The planets have a few surprises and your dreams are still adapting. Just treat everyone the way you’d like to be treated.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

The money gods are beaming in your direction, but you’ll have to be ready to take some risks and experiment with the untried. Tuesday’s full moon brings encouragem­ent. Start by smiling more and fearing less. Sure, you may encounter some resistance to the new you but if you’re happy to discuss your plans, the team will happily join you. Reassuranc­e is all that’s needed.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20 - Feb 18

Family gatherings and team outings will give you the chance to stabilise your life. And if you’re questionin­g your relationsh­ips, take a second look after Tuesday’s powerful full moon. The problems could be entirely in your head — or your heart. Meanwhile, watch the business markets. Your portfolio is changing and you need to keep up. Either that, or get someone to do it for you. There’s money to be made.

PISCES

Feb 19 - Mar 20

Stop pondering and start doing. The universe applauds action — so take some. If you think you deserve recognitio­n, tell someone. If your plans are being delayed, make a decisive move. If you don’t, that tension headache will travel through your entire body. You really do have the power to make valuable changes. And strangely, it’s only fear that’s holding you back. Enough of that.

ARIES

Mar 21 - April 19

You’re so driven to succeed, you’ve forgotten how to spell “stop”. Or even “pause”. Take care with this kind of energy. It has a habit of running out just when you’re perched on a ledge. The real trick lies in knowing where you want to go. Figure that out first. Then there are family issues to be considered. As you well know, perseveran­ce pays off. And this time, you get to be the grown up.

TAURUS

Apr 20 - May 20

The wheel turns and your life turns with it. Just because you don’t like change doesn’t mean you get to escape it. This is your week to start changing your thinking — and your life. Remember this: your thoughts create your reality. If you think negative thoughts, you create a negative reality. So list new plans — some might even work out the way you imagined. The universe has interestin­g surprises in store.
