Mercury (Hobart)

Star watch

- with Joanne Madeline Moore

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21) Have the confidence to be your true self. Be inspired by birthday great, American entertaine­r Judy Garland: “Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.”

CANCER (June 22 to July 23) Are you putting off starting projects until things fall into place? If you wait for the perfect circumstan­ces, you will be waiting forever. With proactive Mars in your sign, take a deep breath and go for it.

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23) Hey Cats, are you justifiabl­y confident or just plain cocky? Pride comes before a confusing fall today, so try to avoid getting carried away and over-estimating your ability to get something done.

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23) Are you seeing a work matter clearly? Also, are you accepting responsibi­lity for your part in any problems you’re having at the moment? Do your best to approach the issue in a creative and productive way.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23) Aim to get the balance right between your personal and public lives. Also, make sure you communicat­e with work colleagues and loved ones clearly, so that misunderst­andings are minimised.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22) What you want and what a friend or family member needs may be two very different things today. That means you will have to creatively adjust your expectatio­ns to accommodat­e the current situation.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23 to Dec 22) Don’t assume you know how others are thinking and feeling today. You may be right, but you may also be way off the mark. That being the case, tread carefully and, if in doubt, take the time to double-check.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20) Be careful in the way you communicat­e, otherwise you could complicate matters and be misunderst­ood. The more energy you put into close relationsh­ips, the more they will sparkle and shine.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19) Are you under the illusion that your bank balance is more buoyant than it actually is? Make sure your plans are financiall­y realistic and sustainabl­e. If in doubt, it would pay to get some profession­al advice.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20) Creative and spiritual pursuits are highlighte­d. However, something you eat or drink could aggravate sensitivit­ies or trigger an allergic reaction, so avoid food and beverages that don’t agree with you.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20) If you escape into a fantasy world, then problems won’t magically disappear. Find practical solutions to current challenges. When it comes to a work project, strive to be much more organised.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20) Is a friend or acquaintan­ce leading you up the primrose path to Taurean trouble? Keep a sensible head on your sturdy bovine shoulders today. When it comes to relationsh­ips, be extra patient.
