OSCAR CAINER

Dear Oscar, It was my birthday recently — did its astrological picture really set the tone for the next 12 months? Should I be ‘angst-ing’ about the prevailing astrological climate because of its year-long ramifications? Christala Before anyone asks, no — this isn’t my mum in disguise! And though no one worries more than mums, I’ll say the same to Christala as I would to anyone ‘angst-ing’. Our Solar returns (birthdays) only sketch out how life could be. It’s the brushstrokes we apply that create the full picture.

ARIES GREAT things are on Mar 21 — Apr 20 their way into your world. The reason that you need reminding is that you’re feeling as if you’re stuck — moving at the speed of a snail, while other people seem to be moving with ease. But it’s your perception of success that is out of sync; like a passenger on board a fast train, you’ve lost your awareness of the pace you’re moving at. You’re also being made acutely aware of what needs fixing in your world. Hold tight. A new view is around the next corner. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses.

Should we avoid cutting corners and quick-fix solutions because it’s more noble and satisfying to struggle? Can things really work out OK without the need for fuss and effort? It’s worth thinking about your answers to the above, because the cosmic trend indicates that a simple move can have a winning outcome. As long as you stay open and willing to respond positively, you have every reason to feel optimistic. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses.

GEMINI WHEN you’re May 22 — June 22 under pressure to discuss something you don’t want to talk about, it’s easy to feel as if you’re holding a secret. Yet you shouldn’t feel burdened by knowledge. In some cultures, taboos are considered to be powerful. Clandestine matters are respected and treated with honesty and prudence. It is not your duty to share your thoughts with anyone unless it suits you to do so. Sometimes we need to hold information close. You’ll know when, and with whom, you need to talk.

CANCER ‘DO THIS!’ ‘No, June 23 — July 23 do that!’ How are you supposed to know what to do when you’re receiving so many instructions, especially when people are loading their problems on to your shoulders? No wonder you feel as if you’re on an uphill struggle. If only you could be in two different places at one time and divide your load. Yet the end of the week brings a change of terrain and a lessening of your burden. As you now begin to disentangle fact from fiction, you’ll see a clear way around a confusing situation.

We do it to pay the bills. Yet, as someone wise said, if you can learn to love your job, you don’t ever need to work again. It’s all in the attitude we have to a tedious task or a complex commitment. When we approach onerous jobs with enthusiasm, they’re transformed into enjoyable experiences. I know. It’s easier said than done. Yet the cosmic climate suggests that if you can find a method to do this, you’ll see the benefits in a challenging situation. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses.

Yet, sometimes, these tensions are easier to resolve than we think. Apologising often sounds hollow, and making promises may seem empty. It’s when our words are backed by actions that an easing of strain can begin. Although it feels to you as if someone owes you such a gesture, you’ll benefit from extending a kind move to someone else. It will take generosity of spirit on your part. But it will fix something that’s broken. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses. Find out how you can change your life. Call 0906 751 5606. LIBRA HOW much do you Sep 24 — Oct 23 merit? Do you deserve the best that life has to offer? You certainly do. You also warrant the skills to discern between what appears to be the best and what is actually the best for you. It’s not always easy to tell. In this world, where money seems to be more valued than morals, self-worth is easily confused with financial worth. You’re looking for a solution that lies beyond accepted expectations and values. With dedication, you can find an answer that really suits you. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses. Find out how you can change your life. Call 0906 751 5607. SCORPIO YOU seem Oct 24 — Nov 22 to be dealing with several impossible situations. You’re being restricted by plans going awry, circumstances that keep changing, and financial restraints. Dramatic events are draining your energy. It’s as if you have a complicated puzzle to solve, but are struggling to find the time to give it the effort it needs. Puzzles can be entertaining, but this is a situation where you don’t seem to be able to choose whether to take part in it or not. Don’t worry. You can find the solution.

SAGITTARIUS YOU can Nov 23 — Dec 21 (and should) forgive yourself for all your past mistakes. Forgetting them, though, is another story. Actually, remembering them is a kinder and healthier way to move forward; it helps us to learn. Such a state of forgiveness, though hard to achieve, either with ourselves or others, can be aspired to. The approaching link between Saturn and Neptune brings an opportunity to let go of a burden. It’s a chance which can change the nature of an important relationship. A rare portal now opens up in this magical time between eclipses. Find out how you can change your life. Call 0906 751 5609. CAPRICORN IT’S easy to Dec 22 — Jan 20 run around without taking the time to interact with the people we come into contact with. Yet today it’s worth making room to talk. There’s a chance that someone surprising can offer insight into a situation. Their perspective, though not critical, will help you see something that has previously eluded you. There’s the possibility of some assistance, too; but only if you make it clear that you could do with a bit of help. Be open, ready to listen and honest about your needs.
