Any idea how many stars there are in the heavens? Or particles of sand in the desert? Or strands of grass in your garden? Everywhere we look, there’s proof of the infinite. But, we turn our heads away, preferring, instead, to nourish the comforting myth of our own eternity. Of course, nothing lasts forever. Luckily, that also applies to the specific worry or concern that’s currently plaguing you. Although it’s important to take the issues you’re currently facing seriously, don’t let them consume you. What really matters is the bigger picture. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223. We’re building up towards the historic moment when Uranus, the innovative change-maker, moves signs. But, if that’s the headliner, there are some good quality support acts to keep us entertained. The sun’s opposition with Jupiter and its harmonious link to Pluto should warm up the crowd, while the alignment Venus makes with Neptune and Mercury and Pluto’s square off will add some drama. So, though the week promises artistic performances and adventurous creativity, this celestial festival is only just getting started!

Aries Mar21-Apr20

A crucial decision is dividing your loyalties. You feel torn between both sides, confused and conflicted. More importantly, you don’t feel able to articulate your concerns. Since you understand the need for clarity and are worried about dithering, you’re faking confidence. The problem is that others look to you for guidance. If you’re not careful, you’ll end up in a never-ending spiral of copied responses. Someone needs to begin by acknowledging – and articulating – a shared dilemma. Be confident enough to make the first move. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223.

Taurus Apr21- May21

Why do we stick to the same well-trodden path? Is it because it always leads us in the direction we want to go? Or just that we fear what might happen if we were to suddenly strike out in a different direction? There’s something comforting about doing the things we always do. But, there’s something stifling, too. You’re yearning for new experiences and broader horizons. As the sun opposes your traditional ruler Jupiter (the zodiac’s very own Indiana Jones), there has never been a better time to start that adventure. The planets are aligning in powerful positions.

Gemini May22-Jun22 Cancer Jun23-Jul23

Have you ever felt guilty for something you didn’t do? A strongly made accusation can have that effect. We all know that feeling of shifting in our seats, not knowing where to look when a teacher is alleging bad behaviour. And it’s a terrible thing to be wrongly accused… we can easily find ourselves thinking we did something that we didn’t do. Maybe we just forgot that we did it. Other people may be treating you as if you’ve done something that you haven’t done. This week, though, your innocence will shine through. The planets are aligning in powerful positions.

Leo Jul24-Aug23

Error-prone people are often the most sensible. That might sound paradoxical, but those of us who are well-versed in the art of mistake-making grow to be adept critical thinkers. We interrogate our own ideas in an attempt to protect against failing. We plan for disaster, rather than success. If something goes wrong, we know how to fix it. A brainbox, on the other hand, would be flummoxed and flounder. Your best course of action this week? Your ruler’s alignments encourage confidence, but not overconfidence.

Virgo Aug24-Sep23

A friend who was a fashion writer once mistakenly wrote that the latest design trend was for ‘tiger spots’. It made us laugh – but now, who knows? With the secrets of DNA decoded and cloning techniques advancing, perhaps one day we’ll have a spotty tiger and a stripy leopard. Unfortunately, though, these scientific breakthroughs do nothing to improve our understanding of other humans. If you want to change someone’s attitude, there’s no serum available – just the old-fashioned method of gentle persuasion. You can do it! The planets are aligning in powerful positions.

Libra Sep24- Oct23

Don’t panic! The asylum hasn’t been taken over by the inmates – they’re much too sensible for that. They’re the ones smart enough to point out that this world of ours is topsy-turvy, back-to-front, unjust and unreliable. That takes courage. The rest of us, on the other hand, are still insisting on purpose. We’re convinced there’s a grand plan out there. We find comfort in telling ourselves that everything happens for a reason – and well it might. But, nothing is quite as it seems this week. Don’t take anything at face value. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223.

Scorpio Oct24- Nov22

Aches and pains aren’t something we’re used to tolerating. We take ourselves to the doctors or the pharmacy and sort it out. We trawl through website after website, analysing symptoms and possible cures until we’re sure what’s wrong and how to fix it. So why, when we’re in intense emotional pain, do we shrug it off, brush it under the carpet and pretend it’ll go away? We assume that struggling in silence is our only choice. But, there’s a second option. Make a decisive change. You’re being offered an opportunity – take it. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223.

Sagittarius Nov23- Dec21

When you have a packed “To Do” list, it’s easy to get sidetracked in doing the simplest jobs first. But, usually, it’s much more effective to prioritise and focus on the toughest job first. Time-management gurus refer to this as doing the “worst first”. With so much astrological action this week, you’ll need all your resolve to keep focused and avoid getting side-tracked. Don’t be afraid to tackle a task you’ve been dreading; it will be easier than you think. Don’t spread yourself too thin elsewhere. The rewards will be huge.

Capricorn Dec22-Jan20

In some ways, the past is all we have. What is personality if not the sum total of our experiences and the narrative that binds together the story of our lives? Except, we’re more than that. We’re just as much what we do now and what we work towards as what we’ve achieved. This week, don’t let an old way of thinking sabotage your chance to explore new horizons. You can grow into a role you might previously have thought was beyond your abilities. It’s not! Frankly, not much is. Act with purpose and you’ll see what I mean. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223.

Aquarius Jan21- Feb19

Everywhere we look, there’s evidence of creative minds that have been given the freedom to pursue their inspiration and to manifest their goals. Too often, we dismiss our own ideas as unrealistic flights of fancy. But, they could be notions that can be developed to make a real difference to many lives. As Mercury makes a tense angle with Pluto this week while preparing to converge with your ruler, don’t let doubt keep you from exploring your most precious designs. You have an idea that really could be transformative. The planets are aligning in powerful positions. Maximise their effect. Call 1900 957 223.

Pisces Feb20- Mar20

It’s not perfect. It’s not even ideal. But, surely it’s worth a shot? A step in the right direction is better than sitting stubbornly on the ground. A lot better, in fact! Have a go. Discover what’s out there. Though it appears as if an undesirable obstacle stands between you and your dream, the universe has seen fit to intervene. The goalposts are in sight. Summon your strength; you will be shocked by what you manage to score. As Venus and Neptune align, don’t let past experiences stop you from achieving your dream.
