Aries March 20 April 18
You’re facing a range of tedious but crucial situations, most of which require that you deal with them according to a rigid formula. Tempting as it is to sidestep this it would be unwise. Try and you’ll soon discover that not only is there no avoiding it you could cause yourself serious problems.
Taurus April 19 May 19
In a number of situations you made promises, usually to others and mostly about financial matters. While these commitments made sense at the time in several cases the actual issue in question has changed. Knowing that, review them all knowing any problems you discover can be dealt with swiftly and easily.
Gemini May 20 June 20
There’s the sense of promise that comes with the potential for exciting changes which is exactly what you’re dealing with. While this is wonderful, on the downside you’re seriously short of facts. Be patient. By this time next week you’ll have learnt everything you need to know and without much effort.
Cancer June 21 July 21
Only a few days ago there was talk of ideas as exciting as they would be revolutionary. Yet now it’s as if nothing had taken place. That’s because everybody concerned including you has retreated to think about these. Once things are clearer you can reconvene and discuss matters in greater depth.
Leo July 22 August 21
The current New Moon is timely primarily because it’s about a fresh perspective which is badly needed and in a number of areas of your life. While some require personal reflection, others will benefit from frank and open discussion even if it means revealing issues you’ve previously avoided mentioning.
Virgo August 22 September 21
When the month began you’d have sworn certain changes weren’t just unlikely, they’d be a pointless nuisance. Since then the actual circumstances you’re dealing with have shifted and so suddenly and substantially that it’s now abundantly clear that things can’t and shouldn’t remain as they are. Explore your options, then act swiftly.
Libra September 22 October 22
Just when it seemed there was no way of avoiding a serious clash with somebody who’s already seriously annoyed events have resolved the issues in question. Tempting as it is to back off in the hope things will be calmer in the future that’s unwise. These still need to be discussed and frankly.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
While you’ve no fear of standing up to others, if you can avoid dramas you’ll try to. However in several situations what begin as tense clashes could turn into a rewarding exchange of ideas, one that wouldn’t have happened had you not been so frank about both your views and your feelings.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
Usually your reaction to new ideas, offers or opportunities is to say a tentative yes first then ask questions and learn from experience. However what’s just come your way is overwhelming in the sense you’re wary getting involved could lead to restrictive commitments. Perhaps. If so they’ll be worthwhile.
Capricorn December 21 January 18
Out of character as it is to agree to an idea, offer or plan while still short of facts that’s exactly what the current planetary setup suggests you’ll need to do. The trick is to ensure what you organise is flexible. That will allow you to make changes when the situation dictates as it will.
Aquarius January 19 February 17
Only days ago you were questioning whether the disruptive but still exciting ideas or offers coming your way were worth pursuing. Now without actually making a decision to explore them you’re in the process of learning all you can about these. This isn’t just wise, it’s the next step before you say ‘yes’.
Pisces February 18 March 19
Now is the time to take a firm stand on certain matters you know aren’t just important to others, they’re determined to keep things are they are. That may be convenient for them, but would cause you and those around you serious problems. Forget about hinting at this. Address the issue frankly.
