Horoscopes

Catherine Tennant looks at the week ahead

Leo July 24-Aug 23

Recent events could make you wonder if a personal goal is worth pursuing. Do not give up on your current plans yet. With romantic Venus travelling backwards through your sign, you could see problems where there are none, so bide your time and focus on a new project. It could pay dividends.

Virgo Aug 24-Sep 23

If you take advantage of the stars this week, you can usher in a more exciting and fulfilling era, so do not let a personal issue cloud your judgment. A recent problem will resolve itself if you are patient; concentrate on broadening your horizons and insist that others give you extra space. A conversation this weekend could point you in a new direction.

Libra Sep 24-Oct 23

With your ruler, Venus, travelling backwards through the area of your skies that rules your social life and mostimportant friendships, you could have doubts about somebody’s feelings or let a passing comment throw you off your stride. An unexpected twist of fate is due to put you in a strong position later in the week. Take decisive action then.

Scorpio Oct 24-Nov 22

Do not let a career setback undermine your confidence this week, or feel you should change course. The tide turns in your favour soon, so put ambitious plans on hold and focus on your social life. With Mercury, the planet of communication, and your ruler, Pluto, now in tune, you can break new ground with someone unexpected.

Sagittarius Nov 23-Dec 21

If you take decisive action, you can make progress with a project you were forced to shelve. Do not let your doubts about the future make you hedge your bets or listen to advice from someone close. What you need most now is confidence in your ability to reach your goal, which could be all it takes to turn a certain situation to your advantage.

Capricorn Dec 22-Jan 20

The pattern of the stars this week will help you to see your situation in perspective. With Pluto, the planet of creative growth and change, which rules endings and beginnings, in your sign, a new ambition could come into much sharper focus. Do not hesitate to give up on a project that you have outgrown or be afraid to turn the page.

Aquarius Jan 21-Feb 19

With romantic Venus stirring up confusion in the area of your skies that rules your love life, you could read meanings into someone’s words that are not there or make decisions that you will regret. Something you discover later in the week could put you in a new and strong position. It could also make you see your options in a very different light.

Pisces Feb 20-Mar 20

Someone close could help you to dismiss your doubts about a new creative project or make you see your situation from a more constructive angle, so do not try to work things out alone this week. You could also find that what you want from an important friendship is now changing. You will make the right decisions if you trust your instincts now.

Aries Mar 21-April 20

You could be tempted to branch out and try your hand at something new this week or feel a current project does not have the stars behind it. Do not change direction now, or you could miss a chance to reach a more secure position and to bring about important changes. You could also reach a new agreement with a loved one or close friend.

Taurus April 21-May 21

Rearranging your home life to give yourself more freedom to manoeuvre may be your top priority right now, but with your ruler, Venus, travelling backwards through the skies, you could run into setbacks or delays. They could turn out to be a blessing in disguise, so do not try to swim against the tide. You will recognise the moment to take action when it comes.

Gemini May 22-June 21

Trouble in your chart’s communication zone suggests you could misread someone’s real intentions or see problems where there are none. However Sunday’s link between your ruler, Mercury, and Pluto, which rules instincts and deep feelings, also gives you extra insight into what is really going on. Trust your intuition, not advice from friends.

Cancer June 22-July 23

With Pluto, the planet that rules secrets and deep feelings, in the area of your skies that rules your closest bonds with others, what you want from your relationships is undergoing far-reaching changes. A conversation this weekend could revolutionise your outlook on a tricky situation. Put your real needs and personal interests first.
