Your Stars

Sun sign: Gemini Moon sign: Cancer Rising Sign: Cancer
You have a compelling need to hide from your world — often spending many hours in your special place, alone. Sometimes you even wonder whether you’re going quietly mad. Relax — you’re not. You have a deeply intuitive side clamouring to show itself. Yet you feel burdened by family responsibilities and dream of the kind of freedom where you can express yourself. Your love life has been dramatic, to say the least, and by this time next year will have completely transformed again. You may even be making a move and starting again. The career is where you can shine — provided you’re willing to take charge. Happily, the planet of opportunity and good fortune moves in by June, bringing a year of abundance and luck. Make the most of this fabulous energy. Make a wish list and read it out loud. Or tune in to your angels and get some answers. You can do it easily. Your gifts are extraordinary. Trust yourself to attract miracles.

ARIES
Mar 21 - April 19
Active and tumultuous are the words that spring to mind, as tomorrow’s massive Aries eclipse drags you out of every single comfort zone you’ve ever known. And since communications are also on the fritz, you’re relying on those wonderful instincts to direct you. You’re rethinking both spiritual beliefs and career path. There’s nothing comfortable about change. But there’s nothing interesting about being stuck in a hole either.
TAURUS
Apr 20 - May 21
Emotional harmony is much more important than career urges now. Which is just as it should be. Your focus is on home, love and a fascinating social life. After tomorrow’s eclipse, your gaze turns even further inwards — towards the meaning of life and how to find it. Most important is dumping excess baggage so you can move on with trust and openness. And, yes, it’s difficult. But possible. And absolutely essential.
GEMINI
May 22 - Jun 20
Something you thought you wanted may not materialise. Which will really cheese you off — until you realise that, in fact, your needs are changing and you’re not nearly as unhappy as you thought you’d be. Same with love. Question your feelings — and stick to your instinctive decisions. The planets are urging you to trust yourself to attract all the experiences you’ll need to continue your journey. Expect to be happy.
CANCER
June 21 - Jul 22
Of course, tomorrow’s powerful solar eclipse will bring drama. But it could also bring magic, marriage, surprises. And since surprises are your favourite thing, expect the eclipse to float into your life like a small but adorable hurricane. Avoid meaningful discussions for a while, though. The communication planet is messing with your sanity. Until next month, trust your instincts. Good things are on their way.
LEO
Jul 23 - Aug 22
A brand-new you is determined to be born — with first sightings coming via the career. Be sure to have the important facts at your fingertips. You know how you babble when you’re caught unawares. When you need a break, look to a deliciously laidback love life — one that actually works by itself. Slightly less fabulous is the news of a list of demands from a relative or boss. Though, knowing you, you’ll charm your way around that one too. No problem.
VIRGO
Aug 23 - Sep 22
The goodies are with you, but the pace is slowing down. Remind yourself that for the wheel to get to the top, it has to come up from the bottom. This next phase is like a visit to the candy store — where you get to sample each new delight and discover the occasional one that doesn’t taste as good as it looks. After tomorrow’s giant eclipse, money takes an interesting turn. Spend carefully until you’ve made your plans.
LIBRA
Sep 23 - Oct 22
Tomorrow’s dramatic eclipse is zoning in on your love life. If there’s a family, or just a lover, arrange something special. This is a time in which anything (or anyone) that no longer serves your best interests is suddenly removed from your life. And if you’re sure the only way to solve your issues is with a miracle, start behaving as though it’s already happened. This is a time for magic. Make a list of desires.
SCORPIO
Oct 23 - Nov 21
Trust has never been easy for you. But has it ever occurred to you that no human being survives free from betrayal? The phrase to memorise is: “So what?” And the lesson is that life has to be lived no matter the consequences. Besides, are you always a 100% trustworthy yourself? It’s time to lighten up. Tomorrow’s wild eclipse will set you on a completely different path. Decide what you want. Then follow the signs.
SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 - Dec 21
That support you were after is definitely there. It just may not show itself immediately. So inspect the shadows, and call softly into the darkness. The universe wants to help — but it needs some encouragement. Not to mention patience. For the rest, there’s your extremely interesting love life to consider. Emotional fulfilment is yours for the taking. Just open the door and trust someone. Then communicate your needs. People do it all the time.
CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 19
Developments at work need time to germinate. Your financial life, on the other hand, is full of beans — even though it may not look that way at first glance. This is a time for lucky breaks and being in the right place at the right time. So keep your ears open and say yes to everything. Local trips will keep you happily entertained. Watch your mouth, though. Communications are off-kilter for the rest of the month. Be polite.
AQUARIUS Jan 20 - Feb 18
You’ll find the answers you’ve been looking for behind the scenes. After tomorrow’s magical eclipse, take no new information for granted. And remember that love doesn’t always look the way you expect it to. Financially, it’s time to expand, relying on your natural vision to spot opportunities. At work, socialising with the big shots will lead you to an unfulfilled ambition. But remember, there’s a price for every reward. Make sure you know what you’re looking for.
PISCES
Feb 19 - Mar 20
Money hots up after tomorrow’s wild eclipse. But there’s just one snag. You’ll have to be a grown-up if you want your new prosperity to last longer than half an hour. Take an active interest in the whereabouts of your funds. Don’t leave them to some smoothtalking hotties to handle. Speaking of hotties, though, there are a couple of new ones about. Use your instincts to communicate. They’re at their best.
