AQUARIUS (Jan 21-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 things that you later regret, so pace yourself Aquarius.

PISCES (Feb 20-Mar 20)

Pencil in some time in your busy schedule to be on your own, for some reflective R & R. If you run around on auto-pilot, then you’re more likely to make thoughtles­s remarks and careless slip-ups.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 20)

Impulsive words or sudden actions could land you in a heap of hot water this weekend, especially involving finances or friends. So calm down and cool down Rams, before you blow a fuse!

TAURUS (Apr 21-May 21)

Someone may try to push your emotional buttons this weekend, but avoid retaliatin­g with rash words or hurtful comments. You can’t control what others say but you can control your reaction!

GEMINI (May 22-Jun 21)

Expect a hectic weekend 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.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 23)

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

LEO (Jul 24-Aug 23)

Cats are feeling rash! Making a snap decision seems like a good idea but it could lead to unexpected consequenc­es. Impulsive actions could also lead to an argument or accident so pace yourself.

VIRGO (Aug 24-Sep 23)

Finding fault with others won’t win you any friends or favours this weekend. Colleagues and loved ones are feeling particular­ly touchy, so avoid offering criticism and unwanted advice.

LIBRA (Sep 24-Oct 23)

Your nifty Libran negotiatio­n skills are required this weekend, as loved ones indulge in family feuds or close friends engage in silly squabbles. A dollop of diplomacy will see you through!

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 22)

You think you know how a family member is feeling but jumping to conclusion­s – without checking the facts first – is a recipe for trouble. Take the time to really talk things through.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23-Dec 21)

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 tea cup will soon blow over.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 20)

Avoid getting drawn into arguments or misunderst­andings over money this weekend. Plus postpone creative projects for another time, as it will be difficult to connect with your inner muse.
