STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 18
Few things annoy you more than those who pull out of arrangements at the last minute, especially if you were counting on their ideas or support. But now you’re in the same position, mostly because you’ve overcommitted. Explain that, apologise. Then say you’ll do your best to make it up to them.
Taurus April 19 May 19
When you make a plan or a commitment, you think things through in detail. And if you have any questions, you do your best to get the answers you’re seeking. However, with so much in transition, you’re better off focusing on what you can learn and, especially, exploring ideas as unexpected as they are promising.
Gemini May 20 June 19
Every once in a while, you forget than certain individuals don’t just enjoy complaining, if they’ve nothing to moan about, they’ll find an issue or obstacle. Knowing that, feel free to discuss any potential solutions. But when it comes to putting them into action, back off and leave the timing to them.
Cancer June 20 July 21
Only recently, you were tiptoeing around certain sensitive matters, concerned you’d upset those who’re already on edge. However, your cautious silence isn’t helpful. Understandably, you’re tempted to check things out, and take it slowly. Still, the sooner you raise your concerns and, even more important, get others discussing them frankly, the better.
Leo July 22 August 21
As a fire sign, you benefit from a powerful sense of your personal identity. However, you’re not always aware of this and, in fact, are sometimes surprised how insecure certain individuals are. That appears to be the case now, especially with one particular individual. Spend time chatting with them. It will mean a lot.
Virgo August 22 September 21
Being a Virgo and an earth sign, you’ve a talent for blending the need to resolve practical issues with creativity. At the moment, however, you’re facing the refusal of certain individuals to even acknowledge that side of things. Discuss your concerns once, and briefly. Then back off, and give them time to think.
Libra September 22 October 21
Although Mercury’s retrograde cycle ended a few days ago, you’re still wrestling with certain ongoing misunderstandings. The fact is, several of these have been a source of concern for ages, and will be until you’re ready to discuss the issues in question frankly. Do that, and they’ll be resolved within moments.
Scorpio October 22 November 20
For ages you’ve been trying to persuade certain stubborn individuals to break away from arrangements you fear are doing them no good. Yet they’ve ignored you and are continuing to do so. Back off. They’ve heard you but are unwilling to face the facts. Then need time to think things over.
Sagittarius November 21 December 20
As a quick-thinking fire sign, you’ve a talent for spotting a problem, defining its nature, then dealing with it, often within days. At the moment, you’re moving even more swiftly, and certain issues could vanish within hours. Tempting as it is to discuss these, for now, say nothing. You’ll soon realise how wise this was.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
Ages ago, certain individuals managed to get you to promise you’d support them in certain plans or ventures. At the time you didn’t take it seriously, so agreed. Now they’re actually tackling those plans, and are expecting your help. Discuss what you can, and can’t do, frankly. And the sooner you do it, the better.
Aquarius January 20 February 18
While it’s true, the ideas planet Mercury is no longer retrograde, so theoretically, life should be less complicated. However, it’s been positioned in the most reflective portion of your chart, so has called attention to certain matters you’d done everything possible to avoid. The sooner you deal with them, the better.
Pisces February 19 March 19
Certain individuals have a talent for manipulating others. While you’re aware of this, you’re usually able to spot their manoeuvres before you’re drawn in and are making unwise promises. Now, however, you feel you could help them. Be cautious. Within days, they’ll be relaxing while you’re struggling to deal with their problems.
