AQUARIUS 21 JAN – 18 FEB STOP COMPARING YOURSELF WITH OTHERS

As the sun changes signs and moves out of your sign, glamorous Venus changes signs and moves into yours on the 16th. This suggests a time of re-evaluating all things related to love, beauty and good vibes. There’s an emphasis on your looks and appearance. Selfaccept­ance is the first step to looking and feeling your best and there is no point in comparing yourself with others. Invest in a staple for your updated wardrobe.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 15, 38, 47, 50, 44, 23

PISCES

19 FEB – 20 MAR Weirdness can actually be an asset, as it makes you stand out. You might want to try your hand at it this week, as the sun moves into your sign on the 19th, signalling the start of your birthday month. This ought to be a time of measuring up achievemen­ts and disappoint­ments over the past year.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 2, 11, 35, 41, 30, 9

ARIES

21 MAR – 19 APR

You and a close friend may have a sharp difference of opinion around the 17th, which you may not have seen coming. See it as a test of how the two of you can tolerate each other and your opinions. Since social diva Venus also graces your friendship horoscope from the 16th, it’s a cool time to be forming new alliances. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS

1, 6, 32, 34, 16, 2

TAURUS

20 APR – 20 MAY

It is not in your placid nature to stir up trouble, but from time to time you actually need to speak your mind. This is a week for doing so, even if you rattle a few cages, especially at work where others may perceive you to be a docile pacifist. Your governing planet, Venus, changes signs and comes to your aid in your work horoscope. YOUR LUCKY NUMBER

5, 14, 30, 40, 16, 11

GEMINI

21 MAY – 20 JUN

You are a tease at the best of times, so when radical Uranus squares up to your planet, Mercury, on the 17th, you’re going to find it hard to contain or behave yourself. Having fun is one thing, but having it at another’s expense is another. With love diva gliding into a compatible air sign on the 16th, your love life ought to pick up speed. It’s also an appropriat­e time to check your look. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 13, 26, 44, 51, 41, 24

CANCER

21 JUN – 21 JUL

It is not in your nature to discuss the intimate details of your love relationsh­ip with friends. Even though this is a sign of loyalty there is nothing like sharing with your bestie, so take the risk and open up. You may gain some new insights that can only benefit you. This is furthermor­e a good time for you and your beloved to review the joint budget. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 6, 27, 36, 42, 30, 24

LEO

22 JUL – 22 AUG

Venus, planet of love and affection, settles into your love horoscope on the 16th, bringing a new sense of appreciati­on and involvemen­t with each other. For single and available Leos, this might be a suitable time to dip your toe into the dating scene. Your money planet, Mercury, squares up to spoon-stirring Uranus on the 17th, consider a request for a raise if you are feeling bold and daring.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 4, 18, 24, 40, 21, 13

VIRGO

23 AUG – 22 SEP

If tension has been building up at your place of work, be alert that something small may trigger an avalanche towards the 17th. This is when your ruling planet, Mercury, squares up to rebellious Uranus, causing all sorts of ructions. If you look on the positive side of things, this will at least clear the tension and level the playing fields so as to facilitate a fresh start and new perspectiv­es.

YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 20, 39, 51, 52, 45, 24

LIBRA

23 SEP – 22 OCT

This has been quite a social time for you and there seemingly is no end in sight of such pleasures as your ruling planet, Venus, joins the fray on the 16th, when settling into social and friendly Aquarius. You’re not one for stirring up controvers­y but an opportunit­y around the 17th to do so should not be missed. People who thought that they get you, will be shocked by your crazy side. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS

2, 14, 45, 51, 25, 13

SCORPIO

23 OCT – 21 NOV

A mellow time is indicated for you when the sun settles into compatible and gentle water sign Pisces on the 19th. Being in your element means exactly that, feeling good in your skin. A renewed emphasis on home and domestic life need not clash with this, even though you and your better half have very definite and different opinions about how the home should be managed. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 9, 28, 32, 49, 29, 22

SAGITTARIU­S

22 NOV – 20 DEC

It is often said that Sagittariu­s is born with foot-in-themouth disease, meaning filters are sometimes not applied to what is said. On the one hand, your directness can be seen as honesty but on the other, you can come across as blunt and insensitiv­e. This week, there is a prevalence of the latter around the 17th, and you may want to pay attention to this if you do not want to jeopardise your position. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS

6, 13, 37, 49, 29, 8

CAPRICORN

21 DEC – 20 JAN

The emphasis this week is still on your favourite topic, money and investment­s. You are by nature not a natural risk taker so be on the lookout for an out-ofcharacte­r set of behaviour around the 17th, when the impulse for risk-taking is enhanced and so tempting. If you can’t get your kicks or thrills elsewhere, gamble what you are prepared to lose and know when to stop. YOUR LUCKY NUMBERS 8, 15, 22, 25, 20, 12
