HOROSCOPE
CAPRICORN
Dec 22-Jan 19 An issue can turn out to be thorny. You may be discouraged by conflicts or briefly distracted from achieving your prime objective. If you overreact, the snowball effect could cause an avalanche of trouble.
AQUARIUS
Jan 20-Feb 18 Don’t let family squabbles or criticisms undermine your confidence. Remain focused on achieving your objectives and being a team player. Steer clear of unnecessary personal confrontations.
PISCES
Feb 19-Mar 20 You may suffer from disappointment unless you face your fears as well as the facts. You may not possess the funds to follow your dreams, but you can take notes and be ready the next time.
ARIES Mar 21-Apr 19 You may be working at cross purposes with someone. Nerves can become frayed when everyone is in a hurry to do something. If you remain patient, your faith in a loved one will likely be restored.
TAURUS
Apr 20-May 20 Someone may throw a wet blanket on your efforts to be cheerful and sociable. You might feel slightly guilty about an error you make, but if you learn something important, all will be well.
GEMINI
May 21-June 20 Try not to let an opportunity to get ahead slip through your fingers. You may be able to take action on some confidential information while others are fighting amongst themselves.
CANCER
June 21-July 22 The things that trigger you the most are actually behaviours and feelings that you’ve disowned within yourself. Recognise that if you’re uncomfortable; it’s an opportunity to grow.
LEO July 23-Aug 22 Channel any temporary frustrations into productive and appropriate activities. Intense conversations could turn into arguments unless you bring a stockpile of tact and diplomacy to the table.
VIRGO
Aug 23-Sept 22 You likely have a fine head for business, but this may not be the best time to initiate a new business plan. Your perceptive assessment of the essential issues can prevent you from pouring money into a deep pit.
LIBRA
Sept 23-Oct 22 You might slow down when situations move too fast because you think that’s a safe tactic. However, this may irritate someone. People can become impatient and argumentative if things aren’t done quickly enough for their tastes.
SCORPIO
Oct 23-Nov 21 Snap decisions and power struggles can create a tense atmosphere. You would be wise to make a conscious effort to be extra polite, slow down and wait for better timing to launch a new product or project.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov 22-Dec 21 Let your imagination soar and gather creative ideas. This is a good time to get out the drawing board, but it’s not a good time to invest money in a project or launch your most crucial plans.
If today is your birthday:
Bide your time as the next three to four weeks go by. Even though your material ambitions are priorities, you’ll find that your wishes can come true if you take appropriate steps. Use your business expertise to make your dream a reality. July is an excellent time to put your most important plans into motion or to ask for favours from influential people. Any opportunity for advancement that comes along may be in your best interest but may require a lot of effort. Avoid making major business or relationship decisions in August, when you may end up fighting a never-ending battle to stay afloat. On the romantic front, you’ll find that September and October are great times for a vacation on your personal fantasy island or a glamorous getaway for two. Don’t begin any new ventures in November, when your authority may be questioned.
