Stars with Russell Grant
For the week 31 July – 6 August
VIRGO 24 August – 23 September
It’s a great time for team efforts, especially with family or friends. Social activities will be varied and fun, and arranging a barbecue or get-together would be a good way to repay social obligations. Expect to make a lucky partnership deal soon.
LIBRA 24 September – 23 October
You don’t know whether to listen to your head or your heart. Dividing time between your social and private lives is tough. You want to please your friends, but your needs are important, too. Time at a seaside resort will renew your enthusiasm for life.
SCORPIO 24 October – 22 November
Push ahead with personal aims as there may not be as much time for these later in the week. A partner will be lucky or a windfall may come your way. Encouraging a loved one to pursue their dreams marks an important turning point in the relationship.
SAGITTARIUS 23 November – 21 December
Make time for your favourite exercise or creative pursuit. Moving your body will put you in touch with your inner vitality. Your enthusiasm makes you attractive, and singles could find love at a sporting event. A stroke of luck will lead to something amazing.
CAPRICORN 22 December – 20 January
You’re keen to do something unusual, but you may not get any encouragement from your friends. Instead of supporting your ideas, they want your help around the house. These demands could stop you from reaching your goal if you let them.
AQUARIUS 21 January – 19 February
Others look to you for leadership. If you’re organising a holiday or big event, your main hope is that everyone will have a good time. You have some great ideas ready to put into practice and you’re likely to be the guiding force in your social circle now.
PISCES 20 February – 20 March
You have the skills to help a group with a special project. In fact, you might get so carried away with a volunteer effort that you forget some of your other obligations, so try to find a balance between personal and outside interests.
ARIES 21 March – 20 April
Friends are making travel arrangements, you need to get out more and this is your chance to have some fun. A group outing to a theme park, theatre or seaside location will lift your spirits. Just the thought of getting away excites you.
TAURUS 21 April – 21 May
Once you’ve fulfilled your usual obligations, there will be more time for spiritually uplifting activities. You never neglect practical matters, but you’re ready to let your inner child come out to play. A work project allows you to exercise your creativity.
GEMINI 22 May – 21 June
Rushing through your days feels like you’re making progress, but leaves no time for yourself. Don’t take on anything more. If your energy is flagging, lighten your load by delegating. A weekend break with your amour will be therapeutic.
CANCER 22 June – 23 July
Your partner or best friend has good news and this will be cause for a celebration. You feel as if nothing can get you down. Why not spread the happiness by visiting someone who is housebound? They will appreciate your kindness and company.
