ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20

WERE you born by the river in a little tent? Unlikely! Most folk will have been born, if not in a maternity unit, at least in a room with a permanent ceiling. But Sam Cooke’s opening line wasn’t the focus of his song. He was expressing his belief that ‘a change is gonna come’. It was his ode to the civil rights movement. The change coming your way might not be as great and it’ll take skill and intelligence, as well as belief — but that’s not a bad place to start. July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help you to maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5601.

TAURUS THAT’S it, you’ve Apr 21 — May 21 reached your quota and you’re not allowed any more kindness. You’ll have to put some of that warm fuzzy feeling down, and you’ve definitely had your share of financial success, too. You haven’t? Now I see what’s happened. For a second, I thought Venus, your ruler, had disappeared out of the cosmos altogether. Now I can see that it’s just moved into the next sign. So you’re still entitled to the benefits from a ruler that represents love, money and pleasure. July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI VENUS is May 22 — June 22 entering your sign. A cause for celebration? Well, as it does, your ruler makes a tense alignment with Uranus, so seemingly unresolvable conflicts might have been pressing on your mind. It feels as if, before things can get better, something needs to change. It does, but perhaps you’ve been looking in the wrong place. To feel happier and more valued, it’s not just the world that needs to show you more love, you’ve got to gift it to yourself, too. July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help you to maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5603.

CANCER MOST of the June 23 — July 23 time life evolves gradually. While certain events have the power to turn our worlds upside down, it’s more common for situations, relationships, and outlooks to change gradually. So we often don’t spot problems until too late. As Mercury makes a dynamic square with Uranus, it’s shedding light on a baffling situation. Problems you’ve been oblivious to

now demand urgent attention. This seems difficult. But you’ve got the equipment to

resolve any problems effectively. July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5604.

LEO A GAMBLER will tell July 24 — Aug 23 you there’s no such thing as a ‘gamble’, only a calculated risk. But I’d like to remind you to be under no such illusions. There’s a vast gulf between gambling and risk, and before you take a leap, it’s worth stepping back to consider which of these you’re doing: is the potential gain really worth what you could be throwing away? If it is — and you’re sure — go for it! As long as you’ve weighed your options carefully, there’s a road to success ahead. July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help you to maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5605.

VIRGO SOME things are Aug 24 — Sep 23 just a bad fit. I’m not just talking about relationships, but we can all think of a couple who spend their time arguing. There’s nothing wrong with compromise, but it’s important to know when to draw the line. Situations and people can only change so much. And no matter how hard we try, sometimes negotiating is impossible. It’s never easy to let things go. But now is the time to call something quits. When you do, a world of new possibilities will open up. July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA THANKS to the Sep 24 — Oct 23 internet — and social media — things are quickly in and out of fashion. Some people adapt easily to whatever’s new. The problem is that this adaptability isn’t confined to technology or fashion. Technology has ushered in an age of treating ideologies and beliefs as ‘fads’ that come and go. They’re cool or uncool at the whim of an editor. Don’t be tempted to abandon a long-held cause or belief because you feel under pressure to do so today. Stay true to your beliefs. July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO YESTERDAY we Oct 24 — Nov 22 talked about the need for caution. That doesn’t mean you need to add trepidation though. I like spicy food, yet if someone asked me to see if a dish was spicy enough, I wouldn’t gulp the largest mouthful I could manage. I’d bite off just enough to make a judgment as to whether more chilli was required. There’s a situation now that, if not heating up, is at least tingling your tastebuds. No matter how complex the flavours, it’s worth tasting — with plenty of water at the ready! July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIUS THEY say Nov 23 — Dec 21 caring is a virtue, but is it really? Surely in today’s world being kind only opens you up to manipulation? Why go out of your way to be good only to have it thrown back at you? Perhaps there’s some truth in that. What other option is available? You can pull up the drawbridge and shut everything out. But is that safety, or selfimposed solitude? As Venus moves into your opposite sign, have faith in the nature of others. They’re not the threat you fear! July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN IMAGINE Dec 22 — Jan 20 you’re lost in the Sahara. Wherever you look there’s only sand, your throat is parched and then you see it — rising out of the haze, a lake of cool water surrounded by lush green undergrowth. ‘Pull the other one,’ you think. ‘I know a mirage when I imagine one.’ And you crawl on by, ignoring the cries of the people gathered round what is a tangible, drinkable, life-saving oasis. The moral of the story? Grasp the opportunity before you right now — however illusory it may seem. July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS LIFE is a Jan 21 — Feb 19 serious business: we’re not here to have fun, so sit up straight, keep your nose to the grindstone and put your back into the task at hand. If the universe meant us to enjoy ourselves, the planet would be made of inflatable plastic, with clouds of candyfloss. Time is precious, we can’t go around wasting it on relaxing and good times. There are chores to be done . . . oh, forget all that. Today it’s about time you went out and had some fun. Enjoy! July is positively charged with astrological promise. To help you to maximise the potential the month brings, call 0906 751 5611.

PISCES YOUR rulers Feb 20 — Mar 20 are locked in a relationship that could have ‘significant’ results. You might just find events over the coming days ‘memorable’. You see what I’m doing? Filling your forecast with non-committal words that don’t describe anything at all. That’s not good enough for either of us now. Life is asking you to make a splash, paint vivid pictures and embark on wild adventures. You can’t afford to dip your toes and test the waters. It’s time to dive right in with hope in your heart. July is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month ahead, call 0906 751 5612.
