SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23 to Dec 22)

Expect a hectic day where you’re running around all over the place. But are you actually achieving anything? If you pace yourself — and prioritise — then you’ll accomplish a lot more.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20)

Pencil in some time in your busy schedule to be on your own for some reflective rest and recreation today. If you run around on autopilot, then you’re more likely to make thoughtless and careless slip-ups.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19)

There’s impulsive and erratic energy about as the planets stir up your emotions. If you don’t slow down then you could blurt out something that you later regret, so pace yourself.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20)

Your people skills are definitely required today, as loved ones indulge in family feuds or close friends get caught up in silly squabbles. A touch of diplomacy will see you through.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20)

Sharp words or sudden actions could land you in a heap of hot water today, especially at home, work or while travelling. So cool down and calm down before you blow a fiery fuse.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20)

You think you know how a loved one is feeling but jumping to conclusions — without checking the facts first — is a recipe for trouble today. Take the time to really talk things through.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21)

A loved one will try to push your emotional buttons today but avoid retaliating with rash words or hurtful comments. You can’t control what others say — but you can control your reaction.

CANCER (June 22 to July 23)

Place your own issues on the backburner today. Putting others first works wonders as you tune into the needs of family and friends. But expect some fiery words along the way.

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23)

Cats are in the mood to be rash. Making a snappy decision seems like a good idea but it could land you in lots of trouble. Impulsive actions could also lead to an accident, so pace yourself.

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23)

Finding fault with others won’t win you any friends or favours today. Family members are feeling particularly touchy, so avoid offering criticism — no matter how “constructive” it is.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23)

A relationship with a relative or neighbour could flare up as responsibilities overtake having fun. If you keep the lines of communication open, then the storm in a teacup will soon blow over.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22)

Avoid getting drawn into arguments or misunderstandings over money today. And postpone creative projects for another day, as it will be difficult to connect with your artistic inner muse.
