STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 19
The name of the game this week is togetherness. While this could mean living or working with others in harmony the odds are good there will be a few differences of opinion. Tempting as it is to encourage them to do things your way at least listen to their ideas. They’ll be better than you expected.
Taurus April 20 May 20
In early July your ruler Venus moved into the portion of your chart that accents love and life’s pleasures. While this means your mind and possibly heart were focused on such matters practical demands have prevented you spending as much time on this side of your life as you’d have liked to.
Gemini May 21 June 20
Last Thursday your ruler Mercury began one of its periods of retrograde or reverse movement in the heavens which leads to confusion here on earth. Unsettling and often annoying as these twists and turns can be, what you learn when untangling them can be informative if not amazingly revealing.
Cancer June 21 July 21
Although it’s nearly August it would be no surprise if you weren’t still mulling over the events that accompanied the Cancer eclipsed New Moon on the 13th. While some may have seemed of little importance at the time you’re now beginning to recognise they were timely and much needed breakthroughs.
Leo July 22 August 22
When a range of disruptive events, some minor but others of more major proportions, arose last week your initial impulse was to avoid them to the extent possible. Since then however you’ve benefited from some and learnt enough from others that your attitude has become far more welcoming if not actually enthusiastic.
Virgo August 23 September 22
Because you’re both cautious and thorough, should unexpected errors arise you’re usually prepared for them. But now things are a little more complicated which means even you could find that getting certain demands you do a little digging. Even more important be flexible. The more easygoing your attitude the better.
Libra September 23 October 22
In several situations you’ve reached a point of no return. However you’re either lacking vital facts or the support of certain individuals. Tempting as it is to force issues take it slowly. Once your ruler Venus moves into Libra on August 6, things are likely to fall into place, possibly overnight.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
Recent powerful planetary aspects involving your ruler Pluto forced you to deal with certain matters you’ve been unsure about or just plain avoiding. Now that you’ve actually delved into these it’s become clear you needn’t have been so concerned. Bear this in mind now as you face yet more twists and turns.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
When facing difficulties you’ll think through the problem, decide what’s needed then tackle it as swiftly as possible. However one particular situation is proving to be more complex than you imagined. Adopt an uncharacteristically slow pace and bizarrely you’ll soon find a solution. After that the rest will be easy.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
It’s the rare Capricorn who’ll go into battle about anything without first giving serious thought to the actual situation and the individuals involved. Yet with things moving so swiftly there’s little time for much investigation. Plunge in knowing that you’ll learn something valuable with every step you take.
Aquarius January 20 February 17
Few things annoy you more than others insisting decisions be made then altering the foundation on which they’re based. Yet now you’re in the same position so are more forgiving of those who in the past haven’t even tried to halt changes. They had no choice and in fact neither do you.
Pisces February 18 March 19
You could struggle with discovering the cause of perplexing behaviour by those who’re usually so easygoing. Or you could bear in mind that with three eclipses the second of which was last Friday the 27th, triggering sudden changes combined with heightened emotions the mood was bound to have been a bit uptight.
