STARGAZING

Your stars for the week ahead.

VIRGO AUGUST 22 – SEPTEMBER 21

Since you’re usually the one who’s helping others with confusion in their lives, your recent struggles with decisions in a range of situations have surprised you. Finally, things come together, prompted by the insights, both about plans and your priorities ushered in by Wednesday’s Virgo New Moon. Take time to reflect on these, since they’ll also be helpful when making decisions between now and September’s close.

LIBRA SEPTEMBER 22 – OCTOBER 22

As a Libra, you’re a dreamer. These usually involve your personal relationships and tricky situations in your daily life or work. So, with things falling into place almost magically, recently and this week, you’re thrilled but also wary. You needn’t be. And the catch? It’s that before the end of September, you’ll need to make bigtime changes, but changes that are better than you dared believe possible.

SCORPIO OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21

From your perspective, certain issues are best kept unspoken. While, thus far, you’ve managed to sidestep discussing them, you discover certain individuals know far more than you realise. Worse, they expect you to talk over these matters frankly, and in a group. Challenging as this is initially, you soon realise all those fears were for nothing, and let these and similar issues go, and for good.

SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 20

You may already have had hints of the spectacular events that will reshape your life when, on September 28, your ruler Jupiter powerfully aspects Uranus, planet of innovation. These are timely yet could challenge your fierce independence, especially because what’s best about these is they involve others, and those individuals will support you in ways you’ve never conceived possible. Now it is.

CAPRICORN DECEMBER 21 – JANUARY 18

The Capricorn practical streak is legendary. It’s helped you focus, overcome challenges and work harder than most. Yet you’re still avoiding certain ideas or changes, simply because they rouse several unresolved doubts. However, between now and early October’s powerful Full Moon, which accents these matters, you’ll conquer them and apprehensive as you may be, you’ll do so with grace.

AQUARIUS JANUARY 19 – FEBRUARY 17

For ages you’ve been playing with ideas that are as intimidating as they are intriguing. And, because you’re an Aquarian, and therefore thrive on such matters, you’re determined to get involved. Yet at the moment you’re not only anxious, you’re struggling with doubts of the sort you rarely experience. This is the prelude to a life-changing breakthrough, one that will take place before October’s close.

PISCES FEBRUARY 18 – MARCH 19

Recently, you hesitantly suggested ideas, changes or ventures you knew would be unwelcome. This involved family, an individual or a group. Since then, you’ve been persistent, in the way only a Pisces can be. And now, to your delight, that opposition is fading. Your next challenge? Living with the realisation you’ve achieved exactly the goals you were pursuing, and the accompanying joy.

ARIES MARCH 20 – APRIL 18

Others’ indecisiveness isn’t just irritating, it’s become worrying, enough you’re eager to address those concerns. Once you begin asking questions, you’ll realise an update that involves everybody is vital. Time consuming as organising this would be, you’re excited about what you all will learn. This both justifies your efforts and renews your faith in your vision of what’s possible.

TAURUS APRIL 19 – MAY 19

Usually you’d be uneasy about making sudden changes, especially if they’d take you into new territory. Yet the stunning aspects being formed by your ruler Venus, during September’s last half, usher in appealing events and calm your anxieties about dramatic shifts. Tempting as it is to discuss these, certain individuals can’t help but raise unnecessary questions. For now, keep things to yourself.

GEMINI MAY 20 – JUNE 20

For weeks you’ve been conducting internal debates about potential changes in your life or pivotal long terms goals and driving yourself, and others, crazy. Now, the fresh perspective that comes with Wednesday’s New Moon eliminates confusion, leaving you with a clear sense of both your objectives and a plan. Discuss this with those involved but nobody else, at least for the moment.

CANCER JUNE 21 – JULY 21

First, you dealt with shakeups triggered by August’s two eclipses. Since then there’ve been questions about organising the resulting changes. It’s going well but has been exhausting. Happily, the New Moon on Wednesday, brings both practicalities and your vision of what’s possible together in a realistic plan. Tempting as it is to tell others, get things going first. Then discuss what you’re doing.

LEO JULY 22 – AUGUST 21

Having battled, both over minor issues, and to get your way in crucial situations, this week’s easy progress worries you. However, that challenging chapter is over. If you’re facing any obstacles, it’s working with those whose way of thinking and doing things is dramatically different from yours. Instead of battling, ask for explanations. What you learn will broaden your horizons.
