Find out what changes and challenges are heading your way as our top astrologer reveals your week in the stars

ARIES

Much as you’d like to push through your own agenda right now, obligations and restrictions could seem to come up to irritate and block you. Keep cool! By slowing down you’ll find a way to manage, and by tackling tasks methodically you’ll get much more done.

TAURUS

Don’t let minor setbacks annoy you now. Everything is working out for you exactly as it should. Don’t allow irritable ideas to take up too much of your headspace. Remember, junk thoughts can do as much damage as junk food – replace them with positive statements of your own abilities.

GEMINI

You much prefer to flit from situation to situation, but be prepared this week to plan and play the waiting game to make sure everybody gets what they need in an issue involving sharing resources. Immediate results are unlikely so do what you can.

LEO

Pay attention to what you dream about midweek, especially if this involves exploring new horizons – mental or physical. An adventure could be just the thing to give you a boost now. If you really try you should be able to find ways of making it happen without neglecting your responsibilities.

CANCER

Others may take a bit of convincing this week about your plans for moving forward. Any resistance you meet now might just be a reflection of your own doggedness. You could learn a lot by considering their points of view, making it easier to get your ideas heard by the weekend.

VIRGO

You could feel you’re pedalling hard and getting nowhere fast in a joint venture, but your pace is exactly right for now. Slow and steady does it. Hold a mental picture of what you want and deal with each new situation as it comes, and you’ll see positive results before too long.

LIBRA

With fiery Mars dominating your partnership sector, energy is running high in your most significant relationships. Doing something challenging together could help prevent things getting out of hand. Compromises are possible now. Acting on intuition towards the weekend could benefit you.

SCORPIO

There’s a feel-good factor in connecting with friends and family abroad, especially if you’re sharing reminiscences and hopes. A brainstorming session with friends around midweek could throw up some excellent ideas that might be used to help more than just your small group.

SAGITTARIUS

There are heavy demands on you from all sides, but biting the bullet brings equally substantial rewards. Getting active can energise you now and taking time to notice what’s good in your life – and being grateful – will boost your enthusiasm.

CAPRICORN

You could be caught between the desire to bulldoze over some person or plan, or to back down completely. Finding the middle way is the wisest choice. Extra responsibilities now may seem too burdensome but, by the weekend, the advantages of carrying on with the hard work you’ve been doing should become clear.

AQUARIUS

It may be hard to come to a conclusion about an important issue as a battle of ideas and priorities goes on inside your head. Be patient, weigh up the arguments and how to act will become plain.

PISCES

Be clear about the details in any projects you’re working on with friends or partners this week, and don’t make assumptions. Others may not recognise what seems perfectly obvious to you. By Saturday you should know which way the wind is blowing in a financial matter, letting you take decisive action.
