OSCAR CAINER

THIS week is shaping up to be very ‘Uranian’. The harbinger of change and revolution remains stationary in the sky, before making an abrupt about-face and turning retrograde at the end of the week. What does this mean for us Earthbound creatures? although over the next few days we’re likely to feel a sense of upheaval, this will be helpful. We can all do with a bit of a ‘kick’ in the right direction from time to time! Wednesday’s trine with Mercury will help smooth the transition.

ARIES AT TIMES, we all feel Mar 21 — Apr 20 emotionally volatile. Like a volcano, what seems to be a peaceful mound is harbouring fiery heat beneath the surface. People travel the world to watch volcanic eruptions. They don’t have to cause devastation. They can be inspiring, and even useful. Eventually, when the dust has settled, it provides fertile ground for growth. You are experiencing tremors. But are you firing up or settling down? You have the power to control outbursts and use the energy to be creative. Confused? There’s a very special message for you in your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, week-ahead forecast.

If a mistake has been made in the production of a limited run, it will end up being more soughtafter than the most perfectly minted or printed editions. Conversely, a commemorative and decorative piece, even if specially designed or beautifully adorned, may hold no interest if it’s too common. Not all of your virtues benefit your current situation. But at least one of your

so-called ‘faults’ can be truly valuable. Worried? There’s a very special message for you in your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, weekahead forecast. Call 0906 751 5602. GEMINI HOW do you tell if May 22 — June 22 something is good or bad? What scale do you measure it on? What if it’s not a thing, but a person? Is it really possible to say that one human being is bad beyond redemption, yet another is faultless? That’s the thing about good and bad. They get muddled up like stereo cables behind a hi-fi. As your ruler Mercury creates an uneasy alignment with Jupiter, be careful how much untangling you do. It may be better to live with an awkward situation. Anxious?

CANCER AN INVENTOR in June 23 — July 23 Thailand has created an alternative to the fire extinguisher. Looking like a little red dodgeball, it’s a sphere containing environmentally friendly chemicals that will put out fires. When exposed to flame, it explodes like an ‘anti-grenade’ in a giant puff of white powder. It’s so safe that it can be let off in your hand and is light enough to be thrown by a child. Something that seems dangerous and scary can, in fact, be life-saving. Don’t be too quick to identify change as a threat today. uncertain?

LEO YOU can’t do exactly July 24 — Aug 23 what you want to do, but at least you’re not obliged to do what you don’t want to. A compromise is on offer, but you don’t find it especially appealing. Yet, for now, it seems you must give up some power. You’re in the process of learning something very valuable. With luck, you may soon make much swifter progress than you thought possible. As a Leo-infused Venus and Mercury make briefly tense angles with Pluto and Jupiter, you may find this compromise is only short-lived. Confused?

VIRGO A CHINESE artist is Aug 24 — Sep 23 doing extraordinary things with gunpowder. His giant artworks are etched onto canvas by detonating explosives . . . creating beautiful scenes steeped in the traditions of his homeland. His work expands on the theme that destruction can be beautiful and transforming. You’ve had enough experience of your plans being knocked down. Now, you can see what’s been created. What might once have looked like rubble can potentially transform into building blocks for a brand-new dream. Worried?

LIBRA IF YOU were to try to Sep 24 — Oct 23 list all that’s wrong with the world, you’d soon run out of space. So I suggest leaving that job in the capable hands of internet forums! Suffice to say, the current state of mankind leaves much to be desired. For someone as fair-minded as you, this is particularly galling. Part of you longs to redress the balance and create harmony. While you’re not omnipotent, you can create a difference just by making a small change for the better. Today, embody the light you want to shine. Anxious?

SCORPIO IF YOUR best isn’t Oct 24 — Nov 22 going to be good enough, what else can you do? Your worst? Your best is all you can do . . . and you’ll just have to hope that it has a more powerful effect than you anticipate. What makes you think you’re up against such an impossible situation? Why should you assume that you’re finished before you have even started? Be more positive. Step forward bravely, even if you’re not sure that your foot will land on anything solid. Where you walk now, a road will almost magically appear. uncertain? There’s a very special message for you in your unmissable, in-depth, four-minute, week-ahead forecast. Call 0906 751 5608. SAGITTARIUS MANY of Nov 23 — Dec 21 us know Edward Lear’s nursery rhyme about an owl, a pussycat and a pea-green boat. The unlikely friends ‘sailed away, for a year and a day to the land where the Bong-tree grows’. The story makes as much sense as someone who may have partaken excessively from the Bong-tree, but then, some things were never meant to stand close scrutiny in the rational world. What else in your life is ludicrous? Does it really need tackling? It’s OK for some things to be nonsense! Confused?

CAPRICORN TODAY, Dec 22 — Jan 20 instead of giving you a forecast, I am going to be nice and specific. I’m going to tell you what is exactly the right thing to do, then you need be in no doubt. Er . . . well, there is a problem, isn’t there? Exactly the right thing? According to whom? Dependent upon what? ‘Right’ and ‘wrong’ are absolute terms. Very little is quite so cut and dried. Indeed, under the current state of celestial tension now affecting you, the only truly right thing you can do is to resist making absolute distinctions. Worried?

AQUARIUS LADIES and Jan 21 — Feb 19 gentlemen, here are the winners of the World’s Most Pointless Invention Awards. The lifetime achievement prize goes to the chocolate teapot. And a new entry, the 2016 winner, is the Egg Sharpener 2000. Yes, with this device you can be sure your eggs are pointier than your neighbours’! As your ruler Uranus stations this week, double-check your ideas. They may be creative, even revolutionary, but is the change they bring meaningful or necessary? Anxious?

PISCES THE penalty Feb 20 — Mar 20 shoot-out is considered a test of nerves rather than skill . . . most professional footballers should be able to score from 12 yards. But the pressure takes its toll. That, along with the team of people who keep moving the goalposts. And, from 2017, there’ll be two goalkeepers and run-ups will be done backwards. While most of this isn’t true, I’m illustrating how hard it is to play along when rules keep changing. Even if the game seems rigged today, don’t assume you cannot triumph. uncertain?
