- With Joanne Madeline Moore

AQUARIUS (Jan 21-Feb 19)

When it comes to a personal matter, be cautious. Things aren’t as straight-forward as they seem. And don’t put your head in the sand ... make sure you do your homework thoroughly.

PISCES (Feb 20-Mar 20)

The Scorpio Moon will contribute to your inner and outer self being restless today. So find suitable activities to let off Piscean steam. Walking, swimming and cycling are all appropriat­e ways.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 20) Relationsh­ips at home and/or work could be intense and challengin­g today Rams. Expect loved ones to be extra demanding or colleagues to be more defensive than usual. So tread carefully.

TAURUS (Apr 21-May 21)

Strive to be at your diplomatic best today, Bulls. The more you dig your heels in and refuse to budge, the more frustratin­g the day will be. Instead, keep the lines of communicat­ion wide open.

GEMINI (May 22-Jun 21) Communicat­ing with a work colleague could be frustratin­g. Try not to take criticism too personally today Twins. The more defensive you are, the more challengin­g the relationsh­ip will be.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 23)

Expect some drama today, as the Moon stirs up issues with a family member or a close friend. Use your substantia­l diplomatic talents to help find practical solutions to pressing problems.

LEO (Jul 24-Aug 23)

You’re keen to persuade others but avoid being too bossy or stubborn in the process. The more entrenched you are in your views, the more stressful things will be. So pace yourself, Lions.

VIRGO (Aug 24-Sep 23)

Very fussy Virgo – your perfection­ist side could go into overdrive today, as the stars amp up your obsession with perfection. But some people will find that your exacting standards are too demanding.

LIBRA (Sep 24-Oct 23)

Money matters look complicate­d today, especially if you are behind with paying bills. The more smart, strategic and thrifty you are now, the more manageable your long-term financial future will be.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 22)

The Moon’s in Scorpio so your obsessive/compulsive side is likely to take over. Try to keep things in perspectiv­e. If you sweat the small stuff, you’ll just end up stressed and exhausted by the end of the day.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov 23-Dec 21) When it comes to a neighbour or a local community matter, expect some annoying delays or challenges. But it is a good time to lift your spirits by planning a holiday for some time in 2022.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 20) Relations with a friend or colleague may not run smoothly today so try to be extra patient. But the stars do favour networking with an interestin­g range of people, especially online.
