Your stars
For the week 10-16 May, with Russell Grant
TAURUS 21 April – 21 May
New incentives to travel, explore and experience something different or unusual will have Taureans like former James Bond actor, Pierce Brosnan and That’s the Way Love
Goes singer-songwriter, Janet Jackson, reconsidering their future plans. Take time to work out what it is you really want and put those plans into action.
LEO 24 July – 23 August
If you’ve grown bored with your current lifestyle, maybe it’s time to ask yourself: where is it you really want to be? You are standing in your own light. Step out of the shadows. If your job, a relationship or family situation is in need of a refresh, change whatever needs to be changed to bring you greater happiness.
SCORPIO 24 October – 22 November
You are more capable than you think. If you’ve been stuck in a career rut, setting new goals will pay off. If you lack experience or qualifications, enrolling on a training course will be enlightening. Make a list of your priorities and start to channel your energy in a new direction. Your friends and family will celebrate this decision.
AQUARIUS 21 January – 19 February
You’re ready to reveal some plans you’ve been making in secret. Once these are brought out into the open you will realise there was no need to be worried about the feedback. Instead of the objections you were expecting there will be nothing but helpful remarks. Someone may even want to join forces with you in a special venture.
GEMINI 22 May – 21 June
You have been listening to advice about a decision that needs to be made. You are being given a choice between one direction and another. It confuses you that different people offer different opinions. Instead of looking outside for answers, close your eyes and go with whichever way you feel guided. Whatever you decide, step forward with confidence.
VIRGO 24 August – 23 September
You have a chance to draw on skills you have not used in quite some time. People who think they know you well will be amazed when they see the extent of your abilities. The quality of your work will attract favourable attention. Action is needed in order to take up these new and exciting opportunities.
SAGITTARIUS 23 November – 21 December
You aren’t being fickle in wanting something new and different. You have achieved recent goals you set for yourself. You know you have got as much out of this situation as you can, and it is time to move on. You aren’t quite ready to make a move but you will be preparing by considering the different choices and options available.
PISCES 20 February – 20 March
Having a vivid imagination does not mean you are lacking in practicality. Don’t let a pragmatic friend or workmate persuade you otherwise. You thrive on using your mind in creative ways. Your inventive approach to the job will prove your ideas aren’t impractical at all. Be proud of all your achievements.
CANCER 22 June – 23 July
You are more resilient than you give yourself credit for. Change is happening around you. If it gets too overwhelming, tap that brake a little and find a way to slow things down. Set a pace you feel comfortable with and be clear about your limits. If you need to stop then do so. Be sure to take regular breaks to give yourself time to recharge.
LIBRA 24 September – 23 October
An overbearing friend or relative will try to make you doubt the decisions you are making. Their cynicism will have a negative influence if you listen to them so don’t give them the satisfaction of following their suggestions. This is your life. Whether it is travel, work or a romantic issue, make your own choices.
CAPRICORN 22 December – 20 January
Your boss or a senior colleague can help you achieve your aims, but you must let them know what you are thinking about and planning. It may be time to call in a favour or to put yourself in the place that will get you to where you want to be. Take the initiative if you really want to get ahead.
ARIES 21 March – 20 April
Impulsive actions should be avoided where possible, as this is when errors can occur. Hold back from going into anything full-steam ahead, as you are often inclined to do. This will only result in you being totally unprepared for problems you do bump into. You will see results soon enough but for now, treat this as a lesson in patience.
