Star Watch

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23)

An old friendship may feel as if it’s going backwards but it’s just entering a brand new phase. Don’t worry. If you are adaptable and patient, then relations will soon be back on an even keel.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23)

The more motivated and organised you are at home or work, the more productive the day will be. But avoid making unpredictable financial moves that could backfire unexpectedly later.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22)

A close relationship could veer off in an unexpected direction today — or a domestic situation could become fiery. So it will take your deft diplomatic skills to calm troubled waters.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23 to Dec 22)

Today there’s a fine line between being spontaneous and successful, and being hasty and foolhardy. Single Sagittarians should look for love with someone who can help to heal your wounded heart.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20)

Today’s stars shake up your Capricorn comfort zone. Which is a good thing, as it forces you to view a situation from a totally different perspective. Then you can do something positive about it.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19)

You’re in reckless Aquarius mode, as you continue to rock boats and ruffle feathers. Just make sure you don’t burn too many bridges today. Try to shake things up in a much more gentle way.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20)

Get set for a surprising day as your plans get shaken and stirred. The planetary patterns also motivate you to roll up your sleeves and start working on a project from behind the scenes.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20)

The planetary aspects boost your restless nature. You certainly have the passion to get projects off the ground. Now all you need is the persistence to actually finish them, especially at work.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20)

Love and optimism are linked, as you work through a relationship problem with a positive and proactive approach. For single Bulls, love and travel are linked — so start planning your next trip ASAP.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21)

If you combine problem solving skills with creative thinking, you’ll have a winning double today. When it comes to joint finances, things are more complicated than they appear.

CANCER (June 22 to July 23)

The more creatively you communicate — and the more you network with family and friends — the better the day will be. But avoid letting illogical obsessions cloud your judgment.

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23)

Relationships and family matters are highlighted today. The moon boosts your intuition, Mars makes you braver than usual, and Saturn keeps things progressing in a reasonably sensible fashion.
