YOUR STARS

- WITH OSCAR CAINER WWW.CAINER.COM

Are our arms tired from carrying heavy shopping bags? If so, we might be grateful for lighter purses. Many shops have reopened in the UK recently, and cash registers are ringing loudly. Yet finances have been tight for many under lockdown. So with Venus (creativity and money) recently ensconced in Taurus (resources and pleasure), we’re not just encouraged to spend, we’re reminded to appreciate what we’ve got. Mars’ final days in Gemini suggest there are smarter ways to satisfy our desires.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

Who cares what anyone else thinks? It’s a common sentiment, but it’s as ill-advised as giving too much credence to the opinions of others. No, other people’s views aren’t allimporta­nt, but to say they’re irrelevant is naive. Today, your task will be to navigate the line between staying true to yourself and keeping those around you happy. Although it won’t be easy to steer your way around a particular­ly contentiou­s issue, as Mars, your ruler, prepares to change signs, it certainly isn’t going to be impossible.

LEO JUL 24 – AUG 23

Sometimes, the obvious answer really is the right one. There’s no point looking at a problemati­c situation and deciding to go with the solution you know is going to be the trickiest and most time-intensive. Nor does choosing the obvious option mean compromisi­ng elsewhere. Sometimes, it isn’t a lack of inspiratio­n, effort, or ingenuity; it’s just that things really do fall into our laps. While you’re understand­ably cautious, don’t let suspicion derail an opportunit­y. It’s safe to put a toe in the water today.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 – DEC 21

How hard have you been working? How many goals have you achieved? How many hurdles have you overcome? These questions highlight one of the problems of modern life. We’re so goal-oriented that, unless we’re leaping obstacles, we tend to think we’re not making progress. Yet, every step you take is carrying you closer to your dreams. Forget about the goalposts today. The cosmos is on your side, and as Mars is about to move into a new celestial home, you’ll soon see indisputab­le proof of that.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

Are all humans created equal? Are we all blessed with the same opportunit­ies? Although one look at the news is enough to show us that imbalance and injustice exist, it’s also true that some people seem to be born with an extra special something. It’s hard to know whether they’ve had it all their lives, or whether it just comes upon them for a period of time. With the Sun, Mercury and Venus in your sign, it’s pretty clear that you’ve acquired an extra sparkle. You can make the most of it and put it to good use today.

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEP 23

You’re dealing with an issue that isn’t going to fade away if you ignore it. If you’re thinking about running away, it will follow you. That leaves you with a single option. You have no choice but to turn around and face it, fair and square. Of course you don’t want to do that. But that’s because you’re taking too much responsibi­lity for the fact that things seem to be going wrong. Yet, you don’t know with any certainty that this situation won’t work out. Focus your energy on a positive solution and you’ll find one.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

What do you consider yourself to be really good at? This isn’t, of course, the kind of question that can be answered by a single reply. But, although you have many talents, your ability to understand how processes work and then see how you can work with them for maximum benefit, stands at the heart of them all. One way or another, you try to understand as much as you can and then apply that knowledge in a pragmatic way. Today, the cosmos brings valuable insight that will help you begin to fulfil a long-held ambition.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 22

Ever since the old blues lyric, “let the good times roll”, was written, whenever anyone’s asked what kind of movement good times make, the answer is they “roll”. Very few of us would use that word to describe the times we’ve been living through over the past year; the times have been steadfastl­y refusing to roll anywhere. Can we start to trust that the brakes are coming off and that forward movement has begun? Is momentum starting to build? The cosmos offers you a chance to take an important step ahead today.

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

Sometimes when we’re unsure what to make of a situation, we try to fit it into our current paradigm. The danger is that we make assumption­s; we categorise issues and try to squeeze them into a familiar box. It can take a while before we realise that we’ve misread it, and that unpreceden­ted changes are taking place which will have far-reaching implicatio­ns. The cosmos is alerting you to a possibilit­y that may seem fairly ordinary. Look beyond the superficia­l and you’ll find encouragin­g options to explore.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

When we’re stressed, it’s easy to convince ourselves that happiness is an illusion and life’s filled with a never-ending series of challenges. You’d have a hard time trying to convince anyone that their anxieties were all in the mind. Yet, by the same token, you’d struggle to convince someone who’s fallen head-over-heels in love that their feelings are nothing but a transitory boost of serotonin. Our hopes and our fears are equally powerful. If you have faith in something worthwhile today, everything else you need will follow.

CANCER JUN 23 – JUL 23

Better late than never — it’s true, of course. But that doesn’t mean it’s not irritating to discover you’ve waited patiently for something that, with a slight change of course, could have been yours all along. What a waste of time, huh? But isn’t it even worse to waste your time fretting about how much time you may or may not have wasted? Be grateful for the positive upswing your life is currently taking. As Mars prepares to move into your sign, exciting things are heading your way. It’s time to focus on the future, rather than the past.

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

When we feel sure that something is wrong or bad, there’s little chance we’re going to be blessed with an idea about how it may eventually bring good things into our lives. Instead, all we see makes us feel discourage­d and dishearten­ed. Yet, if we want to feel hopeful, we have to be willing to create hope. Being open-minded is an invaluable asset, while a pessimisti­c attitude works against us. Something wonderful can occur today, but you have to convince yourself first, then do your best to make it your reality.

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20

This spinning ball of rock is filled with folk who are trying their hardest to do the right thing. In fact, you have to Iook very hard to find people who are deliberate­ly trying to do the wrong one. So, why do we spend so much of our lives dealing with what we believe are the wrong things? Is it possible we’re sometimes wrong about some of the things we consider to be right? The cosmos is encouragin­g you to reassess your approach to a situation that seems to be filled with difficulty. You can find an easier way to work with it.
