- with Joanne Madeline Moore

CANCER (June 22 to July 23)

The focus is firmly on finances, as you strive to come up with better ways to manage money. If you can’t handle it yourself, then don’t hesitate to call on the expertise of an up-todate profession­al.

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23)

Energy and enthusiasm are high as the Moon moves through Leo. You’re mentally alert and able to make decisions quickly but strive to be more sensitive towards the feelings of others.

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23)

Today will work best if you can balance being practical and productive with being creative and compassion­ate. You’re busy but try to put aside some time to relax, meditate or contemplat­e.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23)

Be proactive about making decisions. Your motto for the day is from fellow Libran, actress and activist

Susan Sarandon. “I take responsibi­lity for the ups and downs of my life, and that is very liberating.”

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22)

Do your best to get the balance right between profession­al projects and spending quality time with your nearest and dearest. A colleague is looking to you for some extra emotional support.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23 to Dec 22)

You’ve got a promising new project on your plate, and a lot of unfinished business too! Luckily the fiery

Leo Moon gives you a welcome energy boost, so roll up your sleeves and get to work.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20)

When it comes to joint finances or shared resources, utilise your intuition to zero in on what others require. Then do some behind-the-scenes work to get things moving in the right direction.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19)

All types of partnershi­ps – romantic, platonic and business – are highlighte­d at the moment. Communicat­ion flows easily, but avoid jumping to conclusion­s. Take the time to check the facts first.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20)

You’ll make headway by keeping your eyes and ears open. Stay on top of facts and leave fantasy for the movies. Don’t be rushed into participat­ing in a new project. Slow down and take your time.

ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20)

The Leo Moon makes for a lively time as you play sport, exercise, socialise or catch up with a special friend.

Mars could heat up emotions though. So slow down and take things one step at a time.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20)

Focus your time and attention on domestic matters today Taurus. And make sure you deal with each situation – and family member – thoroughly, before you move onto the next issue.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21)

You’re in a hurry to let people know what you’re thinking and feeling today. But slow down! If you make thoughtles­s comments in a rush – in person and online – then you may regret it later on.
