YOUR STARS
Your Year Ahead – Gemini: A dazzling cosmos showcases Gemini’s unique talents this year, so a career or business option previously left on hold could suddenly soar skywards. You leave a lasting impression on others and those higher up are noticing how well you perform your duties. After October, romance comes special delivery, although it might not arrive in the package you expected. Aries (March 21 – April 20) Your fiery Aries charm could melt icebergs right now. Many will be impressed and follow your lead if you remain enthusiastic and committed to your cause. All this will bring new people into your life and, thanks to Venus, perhaps even that special soulmate. Taurus (April 21 – May 20) In today’s hectic pace, we tend to neglect our well-being. And we all suffer our own little quirks. You also worry, usually about everyone but yourself. If you must obsess about anyone’s health for the remainder of this week, let it be your own. Gemini (May 21 – June 21) An uneasy week. There’s more happening than meets the eye, so stay alert. Should others turn against you, don’t retaliate. Revenge of any kind is unbecoming and, in any case, will only make things worse. It’s far more dignified just to walk away. Cancer (June 22 – July 22) If envious colleagues can’t accept your triumphs, ignore them. They’ll be out of your hair soon enough. Loved ones, however, are delighted to share your victories. If travelling, take care. You’re a tad more accident prone than usual. Leo (July 23 – August 23) When feisty Leos run out of steam, others have good reason to worry. No, a sudden wave of lethargy hasn’t rolled in and you’re not being deliberately tetchy. You’re more likely suffering exhaustion. So rest, my weary friend. Virgo (August 24 – September 22) It’s possible you’ve been trying too hard to fit in where you’re not really meant to. Truth is, you should be forging your own path right now. You’re strong enough to carve a new direction that has nothing to do with others’ expectations. Stay true to you. Libra (September 23 – October 23) This week the Sun focuses on close relationships and work – perhaps a combination of both. There’s also an encouraging financial mood that promises success. If your decisions are unhurried and you allow time for projects to make headway, you should do well. Scorpio (October 24 – November 22) In facing personal demons, this week you seek a deeper meaning to your being. But keep a few kilos of salt handy for the words of false prophets. If pressured, send out clear signals that no one has the right to impose their ideas or actions on you. Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21) Sagittarians are pretty sharp when summing up others, but this week finds you a tad unsure. Maybe you’re feeling out of sorts, maybe you’re confused. Either way, you’re probably less canny than usual. The old adage still rings true: Better to be safe than sorry. Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) Maybe you’ve felt a little heavy of mind or body lately. With so much to do, there’s been little chance to look after yourself. Try a healthier exercise regime or diet. Maintaining a routine isn’t easy, but sometimes necessary. You’ll soon notice an increase in energy. Aquarius (January 21 – February 18) Aquarians are hard to pin down. Being so free-spirited, you’re not easily restrained. When genuinely in love, you offer loyalty and support – but only in exchange for mutual independence. Should a partner draw in the reins, you instantly flinch – or run. Pisces (February 19 – March 20) Watch what you say this week, or your words could be misconstrued. Not everyone’s playing fair at the moment. Likewise, if someone’s being unnecessarily belligerent, ignore them. Their petulance is just for show. The upside is that your financial situation will start to improve.
