STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 19
Ages ago, you promised you’d lend a hand to somebody who was already facing challenges, but would definitely need help in the future. That time has come. Tempting as it is to make your excuses, not only did you make a commitment, once you’re actually involved, you’ll find it both fascinating and rewarding.
Taurus April 20 May 20
It’s not that you’ve been trying to escape certain burdensome responsibilities but, rather, you didn’t know what to tackle first, so were doing nothing. However, now that those events have kick-started a cycle of action, each day will bring something new, and exciting, to focus on, and to deal with.
Gemini May 21 June 20
As much as you enjoy a lively exchange of ideas, heated arguments are another matter. Yet you’re dealing with somebody who regards these as normal. While that means they’re unavoidable, you can learn when, and how, to call a halt. Ironically, once you’re involved, you may not want to.
Cancer June 21 July 21
While you’d have every right to be annoyed, if not actually angry, with certain thoughtless individuals, the fact is, they are exactly that, unaware of the impact of their words or actions. Raise this, gently but frankly. And invest time in the process. The resulting discussions will be astonishingly informative for everybody concerned.
Leo July 22 August 22
Understandably, you’re in no mood to argue with somebody who, on the best of days, is difficult to deal with. But if you don’t tackle the issue in question now, it will be assumed you’re happy with things as they are, when that’s not the case. Speak up now. You won’t regret it. Virgo August 23 September 22
Since early July, you’ve faced situations that required patience, tact and understanding. Challenging as that’s been, you’ve always known that if you spoke or acted before the time was right, there’d be a price to pay. Now that patience is about to be rewarded, and in ways far beyond your expectations.
Libra September 23 October 22
In late July, your ruler Venus moved into a portion of your chart that accents joint planning and decisions. Since then, you’ve had to discuss if not negotiate even simple arrangements with others. While time-consuming, you’ve enjoyed discussing plans and sharing the decision-making process with others, something that will continue well into September.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
There’s no wrong way to speak the truth. As a Scorpio, you know this deep down. Yet certain individuals are expert at twisting the facts, then blaming somebody else. And, currently, it’s you. Unwise as ignoring their antics seems, it’s the best strategy. They will, in fact, soon lose interest and stop.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
Usually, rethinking plans at the last minute is no problem. In fact, you rather enjoy the challenge. But reorganising arrangements when they’re well advanced as is the case now, is far more complicated. Disruptive and time consuming as it is, once you’ve actually begun, you’ll realise how necessary these changes are.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
As a Capricorn, you not only organise things in advance, those who insist on being spontaneous annoy you. Yet, at the moment, you’ve no choice but to adopt their approach to planning, and to life in general. While, initially, things may seem chaotic, you’ll soon be enjoying all those last minute changes.
Aquarius January 20 February 17
Recent sudden changes in plan may have been unsettling but, also, they were necessary. Still, not everybody agreed. Discuss this and what are really simple issues could turn into lengthy and, probably, contentious discussions. Out of character as sidestepping such matters may be, it’s a far better strategy than trying to win others over.
Pisces February 18 March 19
Yet again, you’ve been caught debating the rights and wrongs of certain plans when, in fact, there’s only one option. The problem is, others don’t see it that way and are gradually turning this minor issue into a major battle. The solution? End these debates by taking over the decision-making process.
