Heatoscopes

Tuesday 3 September - Monday 9 September The all-seeing Jan Jacques tells you what the stars have in store this week

ARIES 20 Mar-19 Apr

Time to put the fun into functional, as this week, your super-strong 6th house signals a need to tackle dull-but-vital tasks. This shouldn’t be too hard, as you rams can extract joy from almost anything, so get to it. Elsewhere, do listen to a pal’s chatter – it could spark a career idea. LUCKY GIFT: Lust for life

TAURUS 20 Apr-20 May

You may be feeling far too chilled out to let a retrograde Pluto (your love planet) irk you. It’s true that little niggles should pass you by, but don’t let your partner push it too far. Work-wise, a piece of gossip may turn out to be off the mark – so, as tempting as it is to pass it on, play safe and don’t. LUCKY POSITION: Reclined

GEMINI 21 May-20 Jun

You are a labour of love for a partner, always keeping them guessing. But a tricky Jupiter aspect hints that the situation could be reversed this week, and you must lavish more attention on them. Work-wise, list your priorities in order and stick to it like glue. LUCKY MINDSET: Determined

CANCER 21 June-22 July

Love can be blind, but that doesn’t mean that it has to be a pushover. A sweet Saturn aspect signals a mostly smooth relationship, but don’t ignore wrongdoing in order to keep the peace. Health-wise, do yourself a favour with a few early nights this week.

Firm but fair

LUCKY ATTITUDE: LEO 23 Jul-23 Aug

Your powers of persuasion are legendary. But you don’t need them at work right now. Your ideas stand up for themselves, as do you, so banish those doubts. Meanwhile, a friend without your pluck urgently needs building up. LUCKY FORMIDABLE ATTRIBUTE: A steel backbone

VIRGO 24 Aug-22 Sep

You really are boss material this week. A rare grand trine signals super-skills when managing others. But you also deserve to work on your own dreams – the smart money is on your success. Meanwhile, shades of green are lucky for you right now. LUCKY BEARING: Authoritarian

LIBRA 23 Sep-22 Oct

The mysteries of love may become clearer this week. Mars in your spiritual 12th house means your intuition is spot on – but it can’t all be heart and flowers. Elsewhere, Pluto makes better and better aspects, meaning good news on the money front. LUCKY GIFT: £££s

SCORPIO 23 Oct-21 Nov

Fizzing like Champagne, you should sparkle this week. Just one planet in stressful alignment signals high energy. Keep it that way by fine-tuning your diet – no junk. What seems to be a setback at work may work in your favour. LUCKY WISHFUL TIPPLE: Krug

SAGITTARIUS 22 Nov- 21 Dec

Beware of bloopers this week. What sounds fine in your head may be hurtful when you blurt it out, so think carefully before speaking – especially around loved ones. Work-wise, don’t take on too much – a surprise task may pop up later. LUCKY PLAN: Removing foot from mouth

CAPRICORN 22 Dec-19 Jan

Try not to over-worry about money this week. Although your financial planet Uranus is retrograde, it does have some good aspects. There is a light at the end of the tunnel (and it’s not the oncoming train). Elsewhere, a friend’s news puts things in perspective. LUCKY BROW: Wrinkle-free

AQUARIUS 20 Jan-18 Feb

We all get that hamster-on-a-wheel feeling. And pesky retrograde money planet Neptune slows down the reward for your slog this week. But you may soon be reminded that your work is all worth it. Same story at home, with a bright idea likely to get results. LUCKY WISH: A Bahamas break

PISCES 19 Feb-19 Mar

A marvellous Mars aspect (your money planet) means your astute social skills can boost earnings. This momentum may last all month. Meanwhile, be ultra-tactful persuading someone not to take unwise advice. LUCKY PRECIOUS METAL: Gold
