Your stars
For the week 10-16 September, with Russell Grant
VIRGO 24 August – 23 September
Virgos like Prince Harry (born 15 September 1984), Tom Hardy (born 15 September 1977) and Stella McCartney (born 13 September 1971) will be keen to get started on new ideas. But what may start off as grand schemes could become almost impossible. Even they may struggle to pull them off!
SAGITTARIUS 23 November – 21 December
A moody friend refuses to look on the bright side and you can’t persuade them to accept that what will be will be. Some people seem to enjoy being miserable! A change of scenery may lead to lucky coincidences. Your easy-going, almost playful approach to life helps you accept lucky moments with gratitude.
PISCES 20 February – 20 March
You aren’t dreaming impossible dreams if you’re willing to put time and effort into bringing them about. The chance to take on some extra work seems like an ideal way to boost your finances. You’re willing to work hard to get results and your graft could well create your own good fortune.
GEMINI 22 May – 21 June
Stop comparing yourself with other talented people around you – or you’ll always feel your efforts aren’t good enough. If you enjoy the experience, the end result isn’t necessarily the most important thing. Watch out for a new opening, too. It could be the perfect chance for you to achieve your aims.
LIBRA 24 September – 23 October
If you’re uncertain about a situation, check it out. It would be foolish to blindly gamble on a hunch if you can’t afford it. Avoid risky speculation and respect your sense of caution. If you keep putting off your favourite hobbies and activities for the sake of work, you need to get more balance in your life.
CAPRICORN 22 December – 20 January
A friend doesn’t seem interested in your ideas. Whether they’re deliberately making things awkward for you or not, you’ll be doing yourself a favour by avoiding them and mixing with positive and optimistic people. Being outdoors will be therapeutic. A camping or hiking trip will lift your spirits.
ARIES 21 March – 20 April
This is not a time to let life pass you by. No dream is impossible if you truly believe it can be. Set new long-term goals. Don’t dwell on past disappointments. You owe it to yourself to make a fresh start. You’re extremely skilled and putting your talents to work will lead to more lucrative opportunities.
CANCER 22 June – 23 July
Be careful! A new hobby, sport or pleasure pursuit will be more costly than you first expected. Even so, this project is shaping up really well and you will choose to continue. Keeping on top of finances will be a challenge, though, and you may have to juggle your budget to make ends meet.
SCORPIO 24 October – 22 November
You’ve always taken responsibility seriously, but you need time to relax and enjoy yourself, too. You don’t have to spend a ton of money to have fun. Give yourself permission to be pampered and petted. Treat yourself to your favourite dessert, run yourself a hot bath or sample an unfamiliar cuisine.
AQUARIUS 21 January – 19 February
If you want to kick a bad habit, one way to do this is to steer clear of friends, neighbours and colleagues who still indulge. Put your own needs first, at least for the time being. A decision recently made was well worth it. You should be delighted that you made the right choice.
TAURUS 21 April – 21 May
If you feel you could use a little more luck, sit down and think about all the things you have to be grateful for. Accept an invitation to get involved in a competitive event. It’s not always the winning but the taking part that counts. A moneymaking opportunity may also be worth pursuing.
LEO 24 July – 23 August
A close friendship that has been going through a rocky patch will take a sudden turn for the better. Take this opportunity to think about what you want from this relationship. A heartto-heart discussion is the best way forward. If daily routines are starting to bore you, find a way to make them more interesting.
