STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 18
Judging by the recent link between your ruler Mars and the rather manipulative Pluto you’ve been dealing with a range of complex if not frustrating situations. Obviously as an Aries you’d always rather things be straightforward. Despite that, what you learn while untangling this confusion will more than justify the effort involved.
Taurus April 19 May 19
It’s not so much you’ve been putting off discussions about potentially unsettling financial matters as you’ve been unsure what to say. However with your ruler Venus having moved to accent these your mind should be clearer and, happily, circumstances are moving along enough you’ve several appealing options to consider.
Gemini May 20 June 20
Timing is always important. And judging by the current planetary setup you’re urged to pick and choose your activities and your objectives with care if not caution. For now focus on those that require less thought or strategy. Ideally those that are more complicated should wait until the Sun moves into Gemini.
Cancer June 21 July 21
Planning ahead may be a virtue and usually helps organise your time. Yet between the confusion triggered by Mercury’s retrograde cycle during April’s first half and the current swift pace of events ensure whatever you organise can be changed and probably changed again. The resulting flexibility will make your life a lot easier.
Leo July 22 August 21
After some serious worries suddenly things seem to be coming together. True, you as a determined Leo have a knack for being persistent at the right time and with the right people. But also the superb link between your ruler the Sun and practical Saturn indicates it’s all working out if at the last minute.
Virgo August 22 September 21
The past week or so is a blur of time spent untangling all sorts of problems but not much time updating others on your activities. As a result certain individuals have the impression you’ve been ignoring them and bizarrely assume problems resolved themselves. Explain to them what you’ve been up to point by point.
Libra September 22 October 22
After weeks of having to focus on practical matters or financial obligations your attention has shifted at least in part to more interesting pursuits. In fact it’s all about new ideas, people and places. For now simply explore your options. This alone will lift your spirits. Actual plans can wait until later.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
Most Scorpios strive to create a stable life so work hard to avoid unnecessary changes. Yet judging by the current planetary setup in several situations you have no choice. The trick is to start small. The more you do the less worrying you’ll find the next stage of those changes.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
As a fire sign you’ll respond to promising ideas first then ask questions later. Which is exactly the right way to deal with the events triggered by the Sun’s recent powerful link to Saturn, planet of achievement. Still, judging by the coming weeks’ twists and turns ensure whatever plans you make are flexible.
Capricorn December 21 January 18
For many Capricorns finding a balance between life’s duties and its pleasures can be a challenge. However the recent stunning link between the Sun accenting exactly such matters and your ruler Saturn made you pause and conduct a serious review. And to your delight you discovered things are far better organised than you realised.
Aquarius January 19 February 17
Although the encounter between the Sun and your ruler Uranus took place on the 18th you’ll probably still be thinking about the questions it raised and decisions you made. While some seemed final you sense they won’t last long. You’re right. The coming cycle of change will lead to a far-reaching review.
Pisces February 18 March 19
Long ago you realised there’s little point in discussing options with somebody who’s already made a decision despite the fact they say they haven’t. The trick is to focus on the situation in general and steer the discussion away from anything provocative. That should enable you to avoid pointless debates.
