Aries March 20 April 18

Obviously, exciting ideas and offers are thrilling. While, you’re eager to take things to the next stage and, ideally, onward, the resulting changes are bound to lead to complications. In fact, this could mean disentangling yourself from once-rewarding and, in some cases, passionate arrangements. The sooner you discuss these with others, the better.

Taurus

April 19 May 19

For ages certain individuals have been speaking excitedly about certain changes in their way of living, working or loving. While you’re delighted they’re happy with those changes, you fear they’d be disruptive or involve unfamiliar settings. That’s possible. Still, explore them. You’ll learn a lot, much of it unexpectedly intriguing.

Gemini

May 20 June 19

Somebody is complaining that you haven’t kept certain promises. The problem? Their idea of your commitment to these is very different from yours. Tempting as it is to sidestep this until the mood is calmer, instead, ask them to tell you more about their concerns. Talking things through will do wonders.

Cancer

June 20 July 21

For ages, certain individuals have been complaining about arrangements they regard as unfair. However, they haven’t suggested alternatives. Actually, they’re eager to take action, but don’t know what to do next. Since these are important to you, too, give them encouragement to make changes or explore an entirely different approach.

Leo

July 22 August 21

Every New Moon is about a fresh start, in some activity or area of your life. What’s more, the current one is about doing things in an entirely new way. The problem? This is so new and unfamiliar you’re unsure what the first step should be. Don’t worry. Plunge in, and the sooner, the better.

Virgo

August 22 September 21

Certain tricky situations are as puzzling as they are frustrating. The real problem is nobody’s willing to claim responsibility, so untangling that confusion is nearly impossible. While you may not be feeling patient, it’s not only your best option, the more you think about it, the clearer it will be it’s your only choice.

Libra

September 22 October 21

Certain individuals don’t just enjoy complaining, if they’ve nothing to moan about, they’ll always find something. That’s no secret. However, as a Libra and somebody who struggles when others are being unfair, you’re tempted to put things right. It won’t be easy, but say nothing. This prevents endless, and pointless, discussions.

Scorpio October 22 November 20

Putting your desk, your wardrobe or your cupboards in order is challenging enough. However, the current planetary set up accents the need to rethink certain elements of your life you regard as unchanging. It’s true, they’ve been stable for ages. Still, within days you’ll be juggling exciting ideas or offers.

Sagittarius November 21 December 20

Only days ago you were looking for ways to bring new excitement into your life. You’ve been thinking about broadening your horizons with a new project or, perhaps, getting together with people you haven’t seen for ages, and being inspired by their activities. Actually, both would be a good idea.

Capricorn

December 21 January 19

It fascinates you how others will discuss an idea one day, then turn it into a complex and lasting plan the next. Because you both explore your options and do whatever research you can, you need time to reflect on what’s best. If others are impatient, tell them they’ll just have to wait.

Aquarius January 20 February 18

Recently you said a firm no to changes in arrangements that, at the time, seemed solid. Since then, however, you’ve realised that not only do changes in circumstances require a serious rethink, your own priorities are shifting. Others are already aware of this, so don’t be shy about discussing these matters frankly.

Pisces

February 19 March 19

In the past, cynical individuals you know have questioned your interest in certain people, plans or even charitable causes, saying they didn’t understand why they mattered. Now that they’re dealing with dramas of this nature, they’ll not only understand, ask for their help with your own interests. They’ll be surprisingly helpful.
