STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 19
By no means are you narrow-minded, but as you’ve been told, you can be stubborn. At the time you think you’re being strong when in fact you’re simply anxious about trying something new. Get used to it. You’re in a cycle during which all sorts of surprises, large and small, are coming your way.
Taurus April 20 May 20
Just when you thought you’d have to either find a diplomatic way around the rather fixed attitude of others or perhaps go to battle the mood’s changed. Better yet you’ve found an approach to worrying situations that could mean you can work together without having to agree every single thing point by point.
Gemini May 21 June 20
Some plans are falling into place with almost magical ease. Others however seem almost to be defying your efforts to turn ideas into any form of lasting arrangement. In those situations you may be better off waiting until after the pivotal Gemini Full Moon on the 23rd to take things further.
Cancer June 21 July 21
Obviously you’ve every right to be annoyed with the odd attitude or behaviour of one particular individual. Still, say nothing. Not only are things not what you think, within days you’ll learn what was behind their questionable mood. That in turn means you’ll exchange those feelings of irritation for compassion about their dilemmas.
Leo July 22 August 22
When you make a plan, promise or commitment you stick with it mostly because it’s a matter of honour. But as is becoming increasingly clear certain arrangements involving others can’t and in fact shouldn’t remain as they are. True, these changes won’t please everybody. Despite that they’re important if not absolutely necessary.
Virgo August 23 September 22
The world around you is changing. Often dramatically. Consequently out of character as this may be, forget about perfecting plans. While ordinarily putting things in order is a skill but also ensures things won’t go wrong with so much in transition the more flexible arrangements and indeed your thinking are the better.
Libra September 23 October 22
Even the idea of rethinking long established arrangements exhausts you so when others suggest it’s wise you may try to avoid the matter entirely. Don’t. As it happens there are problems emerging that if discussed now will remain uncomplicated. Since they’re growing by the day you’re urged to tackle them swiftly.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
While you’ve no fear of standing up to others or being forthright about what you believe in you’ll usually give the matter in question considerable thought. At the moment however certain issues could rouse such passionate feelings that you speak before you think. What’s more, in retrospect you’ll be glad you did.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
The move by your ruler Jupiter in your sign is rare, it occurs only every 12 years. But even more its ending what’s seemed a pattern of bizarre setbacks. Actually each of these was about disentangling you from a restrictive arrangement or alliance. Within weeks you will realise why this was so important.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
Every New Moon is about pausing both to examine the past and consider the present, all as a first step to shaping the future. Yet somehow you feel under pressure to take swift action. That is itself something worth questioning. Nothing is that urgent. That realisation alone will change everything.
Aquarius January 20 February 17
As much as you enjoy a lively debate certain individuals stick with the same topics and argue the same points again and again. Understandably you’re avoiding these. While finding those whose ideas are interesting and views fresh if not challenging is bound to take time it will be worth the wait.
Pisces February 18 March 19
You’re proud of your talent for being able to give those who need support a hand. But also you make a real effort to look after your own interests wisely and usually are successful. Bizarrely this could mean you unwittingly refuse a generous offer of support which is both timely and well deserved.
