OSCAR CAINER

Mercury entered Virgo over the weekend, returning after a brief exit during its retrograde phase. It’s as though a visitor came to your home with a bottle of wine, but left their suitcases in the car. It’s hard for them to really enjoy their stay until they’ve unpacked and made themselves at home. For a while, Mercury was rummaging around the back seat looking for his things. Now he’s back, baggage in hand, ready to plug in his phone charger. Soon we’ll all relax into the visit. ARIES BEFORE we can Mar 21 — Apr 20 make something right, we need to see what’s wrong with it. We need to have experienced the negative effects. That’s why we ignore problems as long as possible. Looking at them doesn’t make us feel better. Putting them on the back burner gives us a sense of respite, but they never go away, just bubble in the background, eventually boiling over again. Find the courage to tackle one today. It won’t be easy, but it will be worthwhile. Confused? There’s a very special message for you when you call to hear your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, week-ahead forecast. Call 0906 751 5601. TAURUS PEOPLE can be Apr 21 — May 21 quick to point out our mistakes. When you’ve finished cleaning the windows, the first comment is often: ‘You’ve missed a bit!’ In your carefully crafted prose, someone will skim through it and find an extra comma or two. Why are we so ready to find fault with each other? It’s easy, but hardly a skill to be proud of. And once you’ve spotted the flaws, it’s harder to praise the positive. It’s worth making the effort to be kind and generous today — it will make all the difference. Uncertain?

GEMINI ‘EVERYBODY’S May 22 — June 22 talking at me, I don’t hear a word they’re saying, only the echoes of my mind,’ sang Harry Nilsson. Your ruler Mercury, now direct after slipping backwards through the sky for some weeks, changed signs at the weekend. It’s likely you feeling swamped by people chattering and clattering. Time for a clear-out. Listen and you’ll hear the message hidden despite the interference. Something wonderful and very relevant is being communicated. Worried? There’s a very special message for you when you call to hear your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, week-ahead forecast. Call 0906 751 5603. CANCER HAVE you ever June 23 — July 23 been told to ‘stop being a lemming’? It’s good advice. No one wants to be a small, furry creature that throws itself off a cliff because that’s what everyone else is doing! That might be an extreme example, but we’re all guilty of following the crowd. Sometimes it’s a relief just to go with the flow. This week, though, it’s important to be ruled by your head, not your heart. If you can evaluate each decision on its merits and not rise to the bait, you’ll sail through. Anxious?

LEO WHERE does the July 24 — Aug 23 phrase ‘pecking order’ come from? If you’ve ever watched birds feeding, you know. The biggest get in first, while smaller, shyer ones tend to wait their turn. We’re all familiar with our place in the human pecking order — work hierarchies where we report to a boss, who reports to theirs — and the social order we’re a part of. Where are you in the particular pecking order you’re dealing with today? Rest assured, you’re at the top. Confused?

VIRGO HAVING a threeyear-old Aug 24 — Sep 23 is a good excuse to re-watch my favourite animated films. But now I can appreciate the wit and storytelling from a different perspective. They also serve as a reminder of how much society has changed — in many ways for the better. Modern classics can often be every bit as good without the cultural stereotyping of earlier movies. As Mercury rejoins your sign today, it’s time to appreciate how far you’ve come and celebrate the opportunities that lie ahead. Uncertain?

LIBRA JUPITER remains in Sep 24 — Oct 23 your sign for a few more weeks. In the meantime, Mercury has moved into the same sector of the sky as Mars and the Sun. You might feel as though your head is in the clouds, but you’re not full of unrealistic ideas. On the contrary, a recent shift in perspective allows room for insight. The problems you’ve had and the possibilities that seemed slim are now opening up. And when Jupiter does move on, it will only help to solidify these opportunities. Worried?

SCORPIO YOU’VE never Oct 24 — Nov 22 been one to make a fuss. You’d much rather get on with a job than sit around complaining about how tough it is and how you wish things were different. Moaning never solves anything, but everyone needs a hand every now and then. And people aren’t mind-readers. You do such a good job of seeming to hold everything together that people can be forgiven for believing you. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, you’ll be overwhelmed by the response. Anxious?

SAGITTARIUS WE often Nov 23 — Dec 21 use a road as a metaphor for the future. We consider the twists and turns ahead, the possible potholes, unforeseen heavy traffic, and the times we make all the green lights. But the future is up in the air. It can catch us off-guard. Sometimes, our fixation on what we want causes us to miss out on obvious possibilities. A chance previously overlooked has exciting implications for your immediate future. Don’t miss it this time.

CAPRICORN ‘THE sun Dec 22 — Jan 20 ain’t gonna shine any more,’ sang The Walker Brothers. The lyrics weren’t meant to be taken literally, of course, and were a striking metaphor for lost love. Actually, the sun is always ‘gonna shine’. It’s one of the few constants in our lives, one of the things we can rely on, no matter what else is happening. Right now, things are feeling unsettled. You’re right: you don’t know what’s coming round the corner. But the sun’s shining brightly for you. It will light your way. Uncertain?

AQUARIUS THE gods felt Jan 21 — Feb 19 quietly confident the day they created you. They stepped back from their handiwork and said: ‘This one’s special.’ They were right. They knew they’d created someone who’d go on to make a difference, someone who could be relied upon to be generous, inspired and inspiring. You’ve always known you’re not quite like others; why would you want to be? While others flee before the challenge that’s now ahead, you’ll take it in your stride. Worried?

PISCES DURING the banking Feb 20 — Mar 20 crisis, economies around the world faced a tough decision: should they pump huge amounts of newly created money into the system or work with what they had to avoid a debt they’d find almost impossible to repay? For some, printing huge amounts of money worked. But that doesn’t mean it was the right thing to do. Someone close has made questionable decisions to solve a problem. Though it might not be morally right, perhaps it’s the only way. Anxious? There’s a very special message for you when you call to hear your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, week-ahead forecast.
