Stars with Russell Grant

For the week 3-9 April

TAURUS 21 April – 21 May

Taking a versatile approach helps you see where improvements can be made in a joint project. It suddenly makes sense to try out unusual suggestions, and being experimental could solve a work problem. Working with a variety of tools should be fun.

GEMINI 22 May – 21 June

It won’t be a hardship to have to postpone plans early on. There’ll be plenty of other things to get on with. Discuss your ideas for a future holiday with family and friends – their enthusiasm could surprise you. Seems everyone’s ready to get away from it all!

CANCER 22 June – 23 July

It won’t be obvious, but there’s a lot going on behind the scenes. Your boss is impressed with your achievements and may reward you with a plum assignment. You’ve earned this with hard work – keep doing well and even bigger jobs will come your way.

LEO 24 July – 23 August

Someone new may introduce you to an unusual hobby. You could find you have an extraordinary talent that attracts a lot of attention. Your star power will cause envy – not everyone will believe you never craved the spotlight. It just seems to follow you about!

VIRGO 24 August – 23 September

Lots of work is heaped on your plate – job and family responsibilities give you little time to call your own. You’re keen to help, but people need to realise you only have one pair of hands. Treat yourself to the luxuries that make life meaningful for you.

LIBRA 24 September – 23 October

You’re determined to resolve a conflict with your best friend or partner. The calmer you appear, the easier it will be to reach a compromise. If you’ve been avoiding dealings with an official institution, now is the time to go all out for what you want.

SCORPIO 24 October – 22 November

Your charisma is at an all-time high, so it’s a good week for making new friends and influencing people. Promoting harmony in a community venture will vastly improve matters. Joining in a group event, you could meet someone who’ll further your cause.

SAGITTARIUS 23 November – 21 December

Time to move on and accept a new challenge. Look for opportunities connected with work, study or travel. Accept an invitation to a seminar, workshop or special event – it could help you launch a treasured project. Start this new cycle on a positive note!

CAPRICORN 22 December – 20 January

You won’t fulfil your true potential unless you take steps to turn hope into reality. Whatever is keeping you frozen where you are should be confronted now. Opportunities are available if you open your eyes. Fear of change will only hold you back.

AQUARIUS 21 January – 19 February

Work is very demanding and an important deadline looms. You’ll cope surprisingly well, and your grace under pressure will impress your boss. There’ll be a lull as the week ends, so enjoy it. A wedding invitation could bring a sense of déjà vu.

PISCES 20 February – 20 March

You’re sparkling and vivacious, so don’t be surprised if people regard you with frank admiration. Head out to a party and you’ll have a great time. Single? Take the initiative in romance and approach someone you find exciting, and ask them on a date!
