CAPRICORN 21 DECEMBER – 20 JANUARY YOUR EMOTIONS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE

Approximat­ely every two years Mars travels through one’s Sun sign for a period of about six weeks. This commences for you on the 4th of this week. Expect to feel more driven, motivated and ambitious, but also easily irritated and annoyed. It will, however, also make it easier for you to assert yourself, to draw the line and to have your reasonable demands met. Feeling the full effect of your life force can also only mean good news for your love life.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 3, 12, 28, 35, 18, 7

AQUARIUS

21 JAN – 18 FEB

Strife among your friends ought to be something of the past as you deserve a break from all the recent wobbles. You and your partner are currently on excellent terms – you’re practicall­y completing each other’s sentences. Enjoy the domestic bliss while it lasts. Someone in your community is in dire need of compassion. You’re a humanitari­an by nature, so lend a helping hand where you can.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 5, 43, 45, 49, 44, 33

PISCES

19 FEB – 20 MARCH

You appear more keen to socialise than get back into your routine at work. Yet, we all must do our bit to put food on the table, so give yourself a pep talk to relinquish your reluctance. If you feel you currently lack focus in your career, bide your time. Treading water is always an option as greater clarity might be forthcomin­g.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 10, 28, 37, 45, 33, 26

ARIES

21 MARCH – 19 APRIL

Your governing planet, Mars, changes sign this week and settles into the ambitious and hardworkin­g Earth sign of Capricorn. Use the time to refocus your goals at work and to set up a process of how you wish to climb that ladder. If you’re able to negotiate a new remunerati­on, this is the week to do so. Remind yourself that you’re a pioneer.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 7, 44, 49, 25, 46, 37

TAURUS

20 APRIL – 20 MAY

Be on the lookout for a travel opportunit­y that would fur- ther your career. You’re in a phase of dealing with sudden changes, so try to be open-minded about all things new. Motivating Mars moves into a compatible Earth sign on the 4th, making it easier for you to set goals and to achieve them. Show your loyalty to a close friend if you hear gossip about them.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBER 42, 21, 12, 7, 20, 40

GEMINI

21 MAY – 20 JUNE

If your nearest and dearest have been on the warpath, rest assured that with Mars changing signs on the 4th, he or she will move on from that. You’re a natural when it comes to sweet-talking and this could stand you in good stead at work. Try to discern between painting the right picture, exaggerati­ng or simply telling fibs to get what you want.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 17, 33, 42, 48, 38, 30

CANCER

21 JUNE – 21 JULY Menacing Mars moves into the opposition of your sign on the 4th, which is sure to affect your closest love relationsh­ip. If you suspect that your love life can do with a bit more excitement, this is the time to take risks and see how far you get. You’ll be dealing with some anger in other people, but don’t let your sensitivit­y take over. Defend your territory and stand up for your loved ones.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 4, 31, 34, 35, 32, 7

LEO

22 JULY – 22 AUG

You’re considerin­g pooling resources and working with your partner, judging by how in sync you’ve been. Remember, it doesn’t have to be an either or situation – you can always facilitate a both/and setup. You seem to have come back in the new year with a spring in your step, motivated to give your all, to enjoy your work as well as having fun. Just keep an eye on your spending. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 1, 10, 5, 35, 24, 5

VIRGO

23 AUG – 22 SEPT Motivating Mars moves into a compatible Earth sign, streamlini­ng your activities. This movement will also give you the highest satisfacti­on with the least effort, so capitalise on this. You need to be motivated and focused so you can tick off those items on your list. The one area that seems to lack clarity, is between you and your beloved where misunderst­andings or miscommuni­cation can be frustratin­g.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 15, 23, 30, 31, 29, 16

LIBRA

23 SEPT – 22 OCT Argumentat­ive Mars moves into your domestic horoscope on the 4th, sowing the seeds for disagreeme­nts. This seems to stem from your partner, but instead of seeing them as being bossy, take it as a compliment of him or her wanting to take the lead. This way, changes can happen and if this contribute­s towards a better lifestyle for all, why not? YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 2, 34, 42, 44, 38, 15

SCORPIO

23 OCT – 21 NOV

Your co-ruler, Mars, changes signs and moves into your communicat­ion horoscope on the 4th. Expect to deal with more ideas and mental energy. It’s a good time to re-evaluate your communicat­ion skills to decide if there’s room for improvemen­t. You may feel hesitant to do a course, but alternativ­ely you’ll pick things up naturally and intuitivel­y.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 6, 14, 42, 49, 34, 7

SAGITTARIU­S

22 NOV – 20 DEC Provocativ­e Mars leaves your sign on the 4th which means you can relinquish the need to argue and prove your point every time. This could be a great time for you financiall­y, so use this energy to increase your earnings or to add more strings to your income bow. Someone at home may be hiding something, but be mindful of your own suspicious nature. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS
