Aries March 20 April 18

Although you hate admitting it, you not only have a stubborn streak, you’re sometimes so determined to do things your way that you waste time and irritate others. Judging by the current planetary set up, that could be happening right now. Pause, and think it all through. That will do wonders to clear your perspectiv­e.

Taurus April 19 May 19

Only days ago, you’d have battled to keep certain longstandi­ng arrangemen­ts going. For you, as a Taurus, these are central to your life. However, the world around you is changing and so, too, must these. The irony is, once those changes are made. You’ll wonder why you hesitated, for even a moment.

Gemini May 20 June 19

It’s not that you’ve been dishonest but that you’ve avoided even mentioning issues that upset others. Still, if ever there was a time to raise even very tricky matters, it’s now. The secret? Allow discussion­s to evolve, ideally over several days. What comes to light will be helpful for everybody concerned.

Cancer June 20 July 21

You’ve long been aware that certain once-rewarding arrangemen­ts or alliances with others are less important than they used to be. What’s more, you fear they’re being side-lined even more. That’s true and, as you’re well aware, they are less important. Letting go of these won’t be easy, but it’s increasing­ly important.

Leo July 22 August 21

Every once in a while, something happens that isn’t just unsettling, it wounds your Leo pride. That’s the case now. Challengin­g as being rational about such matters may be, it’s the only way to overcome your hurt feelings and discuss the matters in question frankly. Once you’ve done that, the rest will be easy.

Virgo August 22 September 21

Somebody says your mistakes have caused them problems or even cost them money. While, obviously, you must discuss this, it’s vital you regard what’s said as part of an ongoing, and unexpected­ly informativ­e, exchange of ideas. What you and others learn will be as worthwhile as it is surprising, and for everybody concerned.

Libra September 22 October 21

One particular individual seems to feel it’s their job to correct others, and you, when you make a mistake, however small it is. But you’re now in tricky territory, and would benefit from their eagle eye. Ask them to be on the lookout for potential problems. You won’t regret it.

Scorpio October 22 November 20

The time has come to gently but firmly extract yourself from one particular activity or, possibly, circle of friends. Whatever the case, while these once suited you, times have changed and, in fact, so has your world. Yet these remain, almost like sentimenta­l souvenirs from the past. Say farewell, and the sooner, the better.

Sagittariu­s November 21 December 20

Certain individual­s have a powerful need to plan ahead, often in detail, those arrangemen­ts can be as restrictiv­e as they are helpful. That’s especially the case now. The secret? Look into these matters on your own, and only once you have, discuss them with others. You’ll soon realise how wise this was.

Capricorn December 21 January 19

It’s rare that you make a promise or commitment and are unable to do what you’ve said. However, even you are unlikely to have anticipate­d recent and ongoing twists and turns, and their impact on seemingly ordinary arrangemen­ts. Unsettling as these are, the changes they’re triggering are timely if not actually overdue.

Aquarius January 20 February 18

There’s a new excitement in the air. It’s the kind that you, as an Aquarius and somebody who thrives on such discoverie­s, both enjoy and benefit from. Not only is this especially the case now, simply exploring ideas that have no place in your life but still inspire you will pay off handsomely.

Pisces February 19 March 19

Every once in a while, you recognise your feelings about one particular plan, passion or individual are so strong that you’re almost wishing what you want into being. While, often, this variety of focus can result in nothing short of miracles, it’s vital you balance that faith with a dose of everyday reality.
