Your stars for 2018
Celebrity astrologer Russell Grant reveals what’s in store for you over the next 12 months…
ARIES (21 Mar-20 Apr) LOVE
Mixing business with pleasure is not a good idea as the year begins. You could jeopardise your job security for a fling. In March, the person who has captured your heart will be the focus of your attention. Single? In the summer, you’ll attract passion. Your social life will sparkle in the autumn, while travel to a faraway country will sound romantic.
LIFE
You’ll meet some great people
through work early in 2018. The more professional you appear, the more respected you’ll be. You won’t have much free time in April and May, but if you drop work responsibilities, you could lose your job. Working towards a goal will motivate you in the summer. Imagine your dream life, then list the steps to help you realise this dream. Take advantage of a lucky career break in April. You’ll have a golden opportunity to buy your own place, move to a bigger one or renovate your existing home. Time to buy some new furniture.
MONEY
Your finances are rising, but it may be a while before you see the
benefit. A refund or inheritance could be delayed early in 2018, so you’ll take a more conscientious approach towards spending and saving money.
TAURUS (21 Apr-21 May) LOVE
Your social prospects will pick up
early in the year. If you’re single, you may sense someone has developed a crush on you. If you’re keen on them, too, take charge by making the first move. In a committed relationship? You’ll appreciate your partner’s willingness to go that extra mile for you. Loving relationships will bring you joy.
LIFE
People will value your contribution to a joint effort early in the year. Teamwork will help you learn more about yourself. Some big challenges lie ahead. You’ll have the energy and stamina to meet them. In March, you’ll be made an offer that falls short of your expectations – it’s better to hold out for what you want. What you hear during a spur-of-the-moment get-together in the autumn will keep you abreast of changing events. Getting involved in joint projects will increase your luck in 2018.
MONEY
If your money situation has suffered since Christmas, it’ll
recover in February. When it does, remember only one extravagant purchase could set you back. Cash will flow steadily between April and August. Trust your intuition regarding joint finances.
GEMINI (22 May-21 June) LOVE
A newcomer will seek your
company on a regular basis. Being able to share interests and mutual goals will bring you both a lot of pleasure. During May, take the initiative in love while Venus is in your sign. Single? Open yourself up to new relationship possibilities in the summer. The end of the year will bring romantic delights.
LIFE
You have so much energy as the year begins, channel it in positive
directions. Set yourself a target, focus, and victory will be yours. Joint efforts will go particularly well in November and December. By the end of 2018, you’ll be looking for new challenges, which will bring you into contact with people who share your versatile spirit. Creative, romantic and lively sums up 2018. Mixing with new people will bring opportunities your way. A strange twist in arrangements in July will involve you in something exciting. You’ll have good fortune with money and property.
MONEY
You’ll get funding for a business
venture in February. The summer is a better time to deal with legal and property issues. Investments will pay off in the autumn.
CANCER (22 June-23 July) LOVE
Your partner or best friend is undergoing a profound change, and they’ll expect you to support
them. The sacrifice will be worth it. April will bring more laughter, fun and happiness than you’ve had for a long time. Continue to make time for people and activities you love in the summer. You’ll be grateful for your partner’s support in November.
LIFE
Arrangements postponed as the year begins won’t bother you as
much as others. Spring is a good time for romance, forming a new partnership or getting married. Showing off your creative ability in November will result in a great job offer. You’ll feel lucky in the new year, so buy an extra lottery ticket or two. Just don’t gamble with cash you can’t afford to lose. Your inspirational ideas in the spring will improve your marriage or partnership, and give full vent to your romantic nature.
MONEY
A turnaround in your finances together with developments in a close relationship will give you a tremendous sense of achievement. Make a small investment in February. A benefactor will finance a project that is close to your heart in May.
LEO (24 July-23 Aug) LOVE
You’ve always been protective of the people you love, and spending more time with family will be
particularly rewarding. Single? Dating an old friend in the spring will make you wonder why you never got together before. Experiences you share will give you a deeper appreciation of life. Carefully consider important actions as the year ends, and you should go far.
LIFE
In the spring, you’ll be driven to turn your home into a cosy retreat, experimenting with new recipes, landscaping the garden
or redecorating. A family holiday with relatives you don’t see often will be enjoyable in the summer. The work scene will be busier as the year ends. Friends will bend over backwards to make you happy. Love is all about give and take, and this is their way of repaying the favours you’ve done for them. These relationships are worth their weight in gold.
MONEY
Finding a new place to live or building an extension are
possibilities in 2018. A little extra money in the summer will make life more comfortable. Putting money into your home will bring a sense of security.
LIFE VIRGO (24 Aug-23 Sept) LOVE
A new or existing relationship will have developed into something
special by April. The hurdles you face at the beginning of the year are necessary to help strengthen your understanding of each other. The game of love will be both amusing and fun in the summer. You’ll share a lot of laughs together. Strong family ties will be essential for your happiness in November.
Learning, writing, research and travel will have great appeal in
2018. Good communication in the workplace will help you sail through any muddles in the summer with greater ease. Your star power will be obvious in September. Friends have faith in you to make the best decisions for the team, and you’ll live up to their expectations. Your imaginative ideas will enhance romance and enrich your business interests. Positive negotiations in June will boost your self-confidence. Friendship activities will inspire you mentally and spiritually.
MONEY
Sit down with your family to review
your money situation. Taking charge of your finances will allow you to help loved ones who are struggling. Having savings will shield you from uncertainty.
