STAR GAZING

Aries

March 20 April 19

Only recently you thought you could sidestep certain especially tricky issues by referring to them but avoiding actual discussion­s. While that worked for a short time, within days it could backfire on you. Knowing that, you’re urged not only to raise the matters in question but say everything that needs saying. And now.

Taurus

April 20 May 20

Thus far, you’ve managed to avoid allowing the constant minor issues between you and certain individual­s to wear you down. However, you’re getting short-tempered. Be patient. The current New Moon not only indicates breakthrou­ghs in the actual situations in question, those who’ve thus far been inflexible could suddenly adopt a more relaxed attitude.

Gemini

May 21 June 20

Tempting as it is to seek a quick solution for certain tricky situations or more complex misunderst­andings, it will only complicate matters. With your ruler Mercury positioned in the part of your chart that accents details of exactly this nature, these issues are just pressing, you could resolve them once and for all.

Cancer

June 21 July 21

Because the current planetary focus accents those individual­s and activities that touch your heart, you’re being careful what you say and do. While, in some ways, that’s wise at the same time, it’s vital everybody understand­s what you have in mind and your priorities. The more forthright you are about these, the better.

Leo

July 22 August 22

About six weeks ago, you began what might be termed a dance with certain changes. While you weren’t convinced they were wise, you were intrigued enough to explore them. Gradually, that’s led to a form of discovery and, now, discussion­s you hadn’t anticipate­d. Change is in the air, but you needn’t rush it.

Virgo

August 23 September 22

Astrologic­ally speaking, while there’s no way around the obstacles you’re facing, each offers a valuable insight or lesson. These, which are indicated by the recent clash between your ruler Mercury and tough Saturn, won’t be clear now. Gradually, over the coming days, you’ll recognise the purpose of each and every one.

Libra

September 23 October 22

While you were hoping you’d have certain pivotal decisions settled and so have moved on to other matters, it’s not that simple. With the actual foundation on which those plans are based shifting, you’re bound to go through a range of temporary arrangemen­ts. Actually, this is best, because each will offer valuable insights.

Scorpio

October 23 November 21

For ages you’ve been putting off changes in certain longstandi­ng arrangemen­ts. While they’re not perfect, you’ve felt living with them was easier than tackling the issues in question. Once, that was true. But the more you learn, the clearer it will be that, with each passing day, they’re increasing­ly pressing.

Sagittariu­s

November 22 December 20

No sign is better at brushing off unimportan­t issues or pointless criticisms than Sagittariu­s. Mostly, this is wise. Ironically, however, certain concerns are worth at least checking out. At minimum, you’ll learn something. But the odds are good you realise plans that once worked well are no longer a good idea.

Capricorn

December 21 January 19

The combinatio­n of the recent clash between Mercury and your ruler Saturn and the fact Mercury itself is retrograde from Friday suggests few matters will be as straightfo­rward as you’d hoped. Ironically, however, the resulting twists and turns could lead to discussion­s that are far more informativ­e than had things gone smoothly.

Aquarius

January 20 February 17

True, there’s no avoiding the tricky situations indicated by clashes between the Sun, your ruler Uranus and the New Moon. While they’re unsettling, they’re also about breakthrou­ghs, if expected and, initially, unwelcome. Still, explore everything. At minimum, what you learn will be interestin­g but, ultimately, it could prove to be amazingly useful.

Pisces

February 18 March 19

The line between the complaints of others and them actually being in need of assistance isn’t always, clear. While you’ve learnt this when, in the past, you’ve leapt in to lend a hand, only to realise it wasn’t necessary, your instincts are to take action. First, ask why. What you learn will surprise you.
