Britain’s celebrity astrologer

Celebrating on this day: actor Ross Kemp, 53, and actor Josh Hartnett, 39. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20

Your erratic behaviour is creating problems. It’s important to be consistent with loved ones. When you promise to attend a child’s game or performance, make sure to fulfil this pledge. If your actions don’t match your words, people will stop respecting you.

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21

A bully will try to bait you with provocative remarks. Don’t let these comments get to you. By staying calm in the face of hostility you’ll impress someone who needs to hire staff. When you’re offered a job, be ready to negotiate a deal.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

A group venture has reached breaking point. Conflicting egos and flaring tempers will make it impossible to bring this project to a successful conclusion. Instead of trying to keep this venture afloat, pour your energy into a more productive channel.

Cancer June 22 – July 23

You’re tired of going along with a bad plan that has been promoted by someone in authority. By breaking away from the pack, you’ll end up an insecure position. Not having the support of a big company or impressive executive will be scary.

Leo July 24 – Aug 23

Too much work has been piled on to your plate and now it’s time to speak the truth to powerful people, even at the risk of being branded a whistle-blower or a troublemaker. It’s always better to stand up for yourself than to endure abuse.

Virgo Aug 24 – Sep 23

A colleague feels threatened by your skills and may try to make you look foolish. Their snide remarks are aimed at destroying your confidence. By refusing to take this person seriously, you will pave the way for future success.

Libra Sep 24 – Oct 23

Someone who is embarrassed by their mistakes will try to blame you for them. Contradict these claims in a public place. Be calm and detailed when defending yourself. By refusing to get upset, you’ll convince bystanders you are telling the truth.

Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 22

You’re excited to get to work on a creative project, but a colleague will make the process miserable. You’re the type of worker who likes to experiment with different ideas to find the right method. Ask this pest to give you a little breathing room.

Sagittarius Nov 23 – Dec 21

If you want to get into your partner’s good books, don’t come on too strong. The best bet for paving the way to a passionate encounter is by expressing interest in their hopes, dreams and fears. Emotional and physical intimacy are closely related.

Capricorn Dec 22 – Jan 20

Resist the temptation to come to a relative’s rescue. It will be painful to sit on the side while this family member is forced to defend themselves but until your loved one has to accept the consequences of their behaviour they’ll continue to play up.

Aquarius Jan 21 – Feb 19

Don’t be so quick to make a proposal or give an estimate. If you’re going to bid for a job, you must make sure it is worth your while. Double check the cost of supplies and think carefully about how long a particular assignment will take.

Pisces Feb 20 – Mar 20

Try not to take teasing remarks personally. Quite often, when someone makes a joke at your expense it’s because they like you. If you’re really uncomfortable with these remarks take the comedian aside and politely ask them to stop. Be firm but fair.
