Stars with Russell Grant

CANCER 22 June – 23 July

You have a lot of catching up to do. Someone has been neglecting important background tasks. Since you have some time on your hands, take this opportunity to get up to date with jobs. A group or social function will end the week on a romantic note.

LEO 24 July – 23 August

Grasp the chance to join a new enterprise. Small problems that used to alarm you are easily handled now. Once the first hurdle is cleared, you’ll sail quickly on to the next challenge. You’ll be proud of your progress and should celebrate with friends.

VIRGO 24 August – 23 September

A text message from someone you hardly see could have pleasant consequences. You might wonder how you drifted so far apart and welcome this chance to reconnect. This is a great time to plan a big reunion – you’ll love catching up with people.

LIBRA 24 September – 23 October

You’re fooling yourself into believing an unhealthy pursuit is OK because of the pleasure it gives you – it could even be affecting your finances. If you look around, you’ll find a replacement that’s better all round. A healthier lifestyle is on the cards.

SCORPIO 24 October – 22 November

Your social life is gaining pace. New people are appearing and someone who’s impressed with your achievements could make you an offer. Give some serious thought to future plans. Something needs sorting out with a partner before you make a move.

SAGITTARIUS 23 November – 21 December

Life is about setting dreams in motion and fulfilling your innermost longings. What’s stopping you from acting on a whim? Bored with your job? Look for a new one. If your relationship needs spicing up, try a change of scene – you both need it.

CAPRICORN 22 December – 20 January

Make an early start on anything that requires concentration. Later, you will be easily distracted. Talking to a Facebook friend might provide the break you’ve been longing for. If you’re offered a chance to get away from it all, do take it.

AQUARIUS 21 January – 19 February

You feel you should cancel social arrangements to suit a moody partner, but other people’s odd moods shouldn’t be allowed to dampen your social life. Ignore jealous friends who make catty remarks. You have as much right to have fun as anyone.

PISCES 20 February – 20 March

As much as you would love to, you can’t accept every social invitation that comes your way, but do be careful when turning some people down so as not to give offence. A heart-to-heart will steer close relationships in the direction you desire.

ARIES 21 March – 20 April

A health club or group membership appeals as a way to get healthy with like-minded people. You’re put off by the cost, but there are ways around it, such as teaming up with others at a less exclusive venue. A cheque you’ve been expecting will arrive soon.

TAURUS 21 April – 21 May

You may not see the results of a project immediately, but hard work and patience will pay off. Although you aren’t getting out that much, there’s plenty going on within your own four walls and you’ll be pleased with the progress of some home improvements.
