STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 18
Long ago you decided certain people, places and activities are of little interest to you. Until recently, that was true. Then exciting, if sudden, events forced you to question those views. This is timely. Next? Forget about discussion. Plunge in. You’ll learn far more from what you experience than from any discussions.
Taurus April 19 May 19
The time has come to tackle certain tedious but increasingly important practical matters. In the past you’ve managed to sidestep these, mostly because you’d convinced others you knew what was needed and would do whatever was necessary. But then time passed and nothing got done. Now you’ve no choice. Take action swiftly.
Gemini May 20 June 19
This is one of those tricky periods during which what seems an easygoing discussion about plans could easily turn into a heated debate. The problem? Everybody’s on edge, including you. If you must talk things over, stick to the facts. Otherwise, focus on matters everybody regards as uncomplicated, if not unimportant.
Cancer June 20 July 21
It wasn’t easy, but eventually you acknowledged that certain individuals you care about are both selfish and emotionally immature. Once you did, suddenly everything made sense and better yet, you’re no longer facing constant disappointments. It’s the same with certain recent encounters. The less you expect, the better.
Leo July 22 August 21
Only days ago you were struggling to keep certain once-prized arrangements going. Now, to your surprise, not only have you moved on, the powerful link between your ruler the Sun and Pluto, planet of transformation, is ushering ideas or options far beyond anything that, just recently, you’d have imagined possible.
Virgo August 22 September 21
As you’ve undoubtedly noticed, you’re not alone in struggling with a range of unexpected and, often, unsettling events. While some are welcome, if not exciting, others seem a nuisance. The irony is, the odds are good the latter will turn out to be breakthroughs. The challenge? Being patient until you learn how.
Libra September 22 October 21
If you’re restless, it’s no surprise. After several months of the planetary focus having been on a range of practical matters and issues involving others, it’s shifting. And it’s now on broadening your horizons, in anything from expansive discussions to actually getting away. Take that first step. You’ll be glad you did.
Scorpio October 22 November 20
Only recently, you made a promise to yourself to stick with one particular plan or commitment. While others mention doing this, often they’ll give up, especially when faced with obstacles you’d regard as an intriguing challenge. But, then, that’s the difference between being a determined Scorpio and any other sign of the zodiac.
Sagittarius November 21 December 20
For ages you’ve intended to reorganise certain arrangements. Once they were rewarding but recently, it’s seemed they’ve taken more time but given you far less joy. Discuss your thoughts about these changes with others. Those conversation will take a while, but they’ll result in concepts that wouldn’t even have crossed your mind.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
You don’t think of yourself as being proud. The real problem is you dislike asking for advice and, when others offer thoughts of that nature, you’ll nod but ignore them. Don’t. The individuals in question are both better informed than you are, and have your best interests at heart. Listen to their words.
Aquarius January 20 February 18
Few things are more annoying than being forced to forget about plans you struggled to organise because of sudden changes in circumstances. Admittedly, these are no surprise and, in fact, they’re a relief. Knowing that, ignore those who say do the minimum and plunge into changes with enthusiasm. You’ll be glad you did.
Pisces February 19 March 19
Being a sensitive water sign, you have emotional ups and downs. These are so familiar that, usually, you give them little thought. Now, however, not only are you reviewing their impact, you also feel you’re ready to discuss these frankly with others. This won’t just be helpful, it will be a huge relief.
