Your daily stars

Patrick Arundell has been a professional, self-taught astrologer for over 25 years. His interest began when he was at high school and over time, became a burning quest to understand what made him and others tick.

AQUARIUS

21 JAN - 19 FEB

You can present a confident image on the surface, but may feel different on the inside. If this is the case Aquarius, try not to worry as you’re going through a natural process of discovering more about your real self.

PISCES

20 FEB - 20 MAR

The present line-up suggests being honest when asking for what you want. The Sun and Pluto’s presence in your spiritual zone can be a call to understand your true worth. Don’t feel that you’re inconveniencing others as much as learning to love yourself.

ARIES

21 MAR - 20 APR

Some friendships and associations may be more complex than you realise, and the current star map reveals they’ll need careful handling. And yet you might have no choice but to try and work with things as they are.

TAURUS

21 APR - 21 MAY

While the stars are lining up to boost your career, ambitions and reputation, going for the golden prize may demand more of you than you realise. If you have high expectations of yourself, then consider if these are realistic.

GEMINI

22 MAY - 21 JUN

Have stronger feelings about someone or a situation? You might be compelled to say something today as the Libra Moon faces off with healing Chiron. There are times when you may prefer to ignore such matters, but perhaps it’s time to talk about them.

CANCER

22 JUN - 23 JUL

Are you reading the signals right, Cancer? With the current focus causing a few ripples, things might not be as they seem. Turbulent emotions may be flourishing under a pleasant veneer. If you sense that something is not quite right, talk to someone.

LEO

24 JUL - 23 AUG

You’re all set to make a big splash at work and in terms of your ambitions. With the right strategy you could do very well, so take your time to set your priorities. The coming days and weeks are a chance to make an impact, so don’t miss out.

VIRGO

24 AUG - 23 SEP

Mars in your leisure zone finds you in a very sporty mood and keen to get out more and move your body. Whether you prefer walking, jogging, cycling or swimming, get moving while you feel motivated. Keep at it as it could become a worthwhile habit that you enjoy.

LIBRA

24 SEP - 23 OCT

Should you share those feelings you have for someone or keep them to yourself? You may be undecided for now, Libra. However, with luscious Venus in Capricorn and a private zone, you might worry that you’re being too forward. Trust your instincts.

SCORPIO

24 OCT - 22 NOV

Much as you want to get things organised, it can be difficult when everything seems so up in the air. With the Moon opposing celestial Chiron you might be tempted to blame yourself, but there’s no reason to.

SAGITTARIUS

23 NOV - 21 DEC

Thoughts about your plans and any issues can change from day to day. And the current zesty aspects could emphasise this trend. As the focus is on adopting new ways for resolving issues, it may be difficult to just think your way out of a situation.

CAPRICORN

22 DEC - 20 JAN

Assured by someone’s glowing report, you might be keen to join a group or sign up for a course that looks to be an experience. The only drawback may be the price. It could start out as reasonable, but there can be hidden costs.
