THE SKY THIS WEEK

There are no major aspects this week, but minor tense connections between Mercury and both Saturn and Pluto and between Venus and Mars means that making small but important adjustments in attitudes and showing respect for others could lead to significant positive changes in relationships of all kinds. Most affected are those born Jan 24-30, Aug 10-16, Aug 28 to Sept 3 and Dec 24-30.

Cancer

Don’t let touchiness get the upper hand now if you come up against people who do things their way. You’ll create win-win situations if you share your ideas and resources and work towards common goals instead of wasting your energy in squabbles. Make the most of Friday’s feelgood factor.

A good week for...courage

Scorpio

A family matter could feel like it’s getting nowhere over the next few weeks but keep working at it patiently and you could find a brilliant solution to an old problem. Discussions with loved ones could generate some heat but bring closeness and clarity about what you both stand for.

A good week for...travel

PISCES

Welcome any apparent setbacks as they’re really disguised opportunities to get clear about what’s really important. Leisure and hobbies may need attention and you may meet resistance in carving out time for yourself. Standing your ground may bring long-term benefits.

A good week for...creativity
