JONATHAN CAINER
DEAR Jonathan, In my limited experience, children’s charts always contain a mixture of the sun, rising or moon signs in their parents’ charts, often in swapped positions. If this is consistent for every child, wouldn’t astrology be better than DNA testing
ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20
IF PEOPLE born under your sign are truly as hasty and excitable as some of my colleagues seem to think, we must wonder why any Aries person ever consults a horoscope. Even in the unlikely event that you find time to read it, why would you heed the advice it contains? Aren’t you supposed to be too headstrong for that? Current events are teaching you something about how clever you have the potential to be. Think more about why you think what you think if you want to achieve the unthinkable!

TAURUS Apr 21 — May 21
IF SPEEDY people had their way, everything would be different. There are, even in this modern push-button world, many processes that are still surprisingly slow. Perhaps we should ask whether night needs to follow day with quite such regularity? Perhaps science can help us adjust the Earth’s rotation so that we reduce the hours of darkness and thus increase the number of productive hours at our disposal. Unlikely? So too, today, is someone’s plan for speeding up a process that needs to take its time. Want to know what Chinese New Year could bring you? Let’s ask the amazing Oriental oracle. Call 0906 751 5602.
GEMINI May 22 — June 22
YOU may want to ring the changes, but perhaps you feel you have no power over a situation. Even so, there are some circumstances you can alter. These may seem trivial, but they will have symbolic significance if you implement them. It is amazing how a small difference here or there can add up to a big difference somewhere else. It is important to express your enthusiasm for (and commitment to) an aspiration. Simply by wanting what you want, you make it a little more likely to happen.

CANCER June 23 — July 23
IF YOU had a jetpack strapped to your back, think how much fun you could have. You could jump in the air while walking down the street and, with a swift flick of a lever, you could rise above the ground to the amazement of all. I’m not trying to suggest that any such technological marvel is available to you today, but the residual impetus of the New Moon is surely the psychological equivalent of such a boost. Where, normally, little comes of the wishes we make, now there is a chance to ensure that they count. Want to know what Chinese New Year could bring you? Let’s ask the amazing Oriental oracle.

LEO July 24 — Aug 23
WE OFTEN think we are stuck with situations that we don’t like. We try, when they first arise, to change them or to free ourselves from their grip. If we aren’t successful, we resign ourselves to their apparent inevitability. After a while, we stop looking to see if there is scope for improvement because we are tired of the disappointment we feel when we realise that there isn’t any. But things are different now, not least because you have the potential co-operation of someone who has power and influence. Want to know what Chinese New Year could bring you?

VIRGO Aug 24 — Sep 23
NONE of us mind putting in effort as long as we feel we are dedicating this to a worthwhile cause. We like to believe we are getting somewhere and there is, therefore, a point in going the extra mile or suffering a degree of inconvenience. Enthusiasm wanes when we begin to suspect that our mission is futile or we are merely going round in circles. All you need now is a little evidence to support the idea that you are on the right track. If you haven’t seen that already, it will become clear soon.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23
I WILL be showing my age if I employ this term, but back in the 1970s, when people felt things were naturally going their way, they used to describe themselves as being ‘in the flow’. ‘The flow’ was a bit like ‘the force’ in Star Wars. You had only to attune yourself with it and it could work magic for you. Then, once in a while, things would get awkward. We would start to feel we had lost ‘the flow’ or, perhaps, that ‘the flow’ had left us behind. But it never leaves us. We merely stop seeing it. Look more closely today.

SCORPIO Oct 24 — Nov 22
YOU have been let down in the past. Yet you are really not the only person who has suffered in this way. Others have known bitter blows too, yet they have found some way to put these behind them and move on. You aren’t quite so sure how far you can trust other people or even whether you believe that the cosmos is on your side. Yet those who place their faith in the benefic nature of the universe usually find that this is validated. Those who expect trouble tend to get it. So give your heart to hope today.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 — Dec 21
YOU may not have a winning lottery ticket under your mattress. Perhaps there isn’t a priceless antique at the back of your cupboard. Yet somewhere, in some corner of your world, there is an investment that you have made. It could potentially pay off greatly now. Have you given your time and energy to a deserving cause? Have you helped someone or dedicated effort to learning how a particular process works? You are close to a rediscovery that can work in your favour.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 — Jan 20
CHAOTIC situations often have the potential to give rise to magic. Order, stability, structure and predictability are all well and good, but a little anarchy can allow what once seemed impossible to become inspiringly feasible after all. Take, for example, the factor in your life now which is potentially capable of causing the greatest annoyance. A situation may be tough to control, but if allowed to remain wild for just a little longer, it is more likely, by far, to produce a delightful development than to pose a problem.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 — Feb 19
WE should think of the recent New Moon in your sign as a launchpad. It has helped you to embark on a journey or allowed you to set a process in motion. It has effectively removed whatever barrier is preventing progress and inspired you to reach for a brighter future. Well, hasn’t it? Are you still unsure about your own power to take advantage of an opportunity and alter an unsatisfactory situation? If such doubts remain, abandon them. There is a natural process taking place. Trust it. Want to know what Chinese New Year could bring you? Let’s ask the amazing Oriental oracle. Call 0906 751 5611.
PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20
YOU probably don’t want to go on a parachute jump today. Most likely, a marathon swim isn’t on your agenda either, especially if it involves crossing shark-infested waters. So, having established that there are more undesirable possibilities to be deterred by than those you were previously contemplating, let us look at what difficult task the world now seems to be asking you to perform. Is it really that tricky? Is the element of risk quite as intense as you imagined? Be a little brave if you want to win. Want to know what Chinese New Year could bring you?
