STAR GAZING
Aries
March 20 April 18
The events triggered by the recent link between your ruler Mars and the planet of good fortune, Jupiter, will have been extraordinarily. However, it’s unlikely things will fall into place easily. In fact, the rest of the current planetary activity indicates obstacles. Still, the outcome will be far better than you imagined possible.
Taurus
April 19 May 19
Obviously, you have to confront those who’ve been unreasonable. However, there’s a better approach. First, investigate the facts for yourself. What surfaces will surprise and delight you. That done, you can then challenge others’ thinking on the matters in question. The resulting discussions will be as unexpected as they are rewarding.
Gemini
May 20 June 19
While, initially, what you’re facing could seem like nothing more than annoying obstacles, they’ll actually lead you to breakthroughs. In fact, judging by the current powerful planetary focus on learning from observation, more than discussion or taking action, for now the less you do, the better it will be, for you and others.
Cancer
June 20 July 21
For ages you’ve had certain domestic matters on your mind. But between your own lack of clarity about the actual reason for your concerns and other distractions, you did nothing. Now that the planetary focus is accenting these, the odds are good they’ll come to a head, and require swift, and thoughtful, action.
Leo
July 22 August 21
The recent clash between your ruler the Sun and the underhand Pluto shook things up and raised all sorts of questions. However, add its move into the most decisive part of your chart, and you’re under pressure big time. Or so it seems. Actually, these changes are breakthroughs, as timely as they are dramatic.
Virgo
August 22 September 21
As a Virgo and a practical earth sign, you try to avoid wasting time on plans or efforts that are going nowhere. Yet you’ve been drawn into something because of others’ passion. Yet, you’re still wary. For now, focus on exploration. At minimum, you’ll learn something. You may even find it interesting.
Libra
September 22 October 21
Somebody has been taking advantage of certain tricky situations, manoeuvring in ways that are to their advantage but which will cause others difficulties. Yet you feel uneasy about confronting them. Actually, that’s what they’re hoping for. The more swiftly you confront them, the better for all those who’re involved, whatever their role.
Scorpio
October 22 November 20
No sign has a better understanding of the importance of sticking to what you believe in. While that’s no problem, the odds are good you’ll struggle to explain why you feel as you do to certain unimaginative individuals. Discuss the matter in question once, they may agree to disagree, at least for now.
Sagittarius
November 21 December 20
Promising as recent ideas, offers or discussions were, turning them into a lasting arrangement is likely to take a long time. While that’s frustrating, you’re right in thinking that the results are worth fighting for. Despite those feelings, the odds are good you’ll need to be far more patient than you like.
Capricorn
December 21 January 19
After a lengthy period of being diligent about a range of matters and more recent pressing obligations, you need a break. Judging by the planetary shift to accent life’s pleasures, that’s what this week is all about. Your biggest challenge, in fact, may be relaxing enough that you’re able to enjoy this wonderful period.
Aquarius
January 20 February 18
Tempting as it is to focus on untangling recent problems or dealing with misunderstandings, you’re urged to do the minimum. Unwise as that seems now, within days if not hours, you’ll recognise not only the source of those issues but a tactful way to overcome them, while avoiding further dramas. All you’ll need is patience.
Pisces
February 19 March 19
After having faced a series of difficult if not irrational disputes recently, you’re wary of questioning others’ judgement. Yet if you don’t speak up, they’re likely to make unwise decisions. For now, focus on restoring calm. Once you’ve achieved that, you’re far more likely to talk things through without pointless dramas.
