YOUR STARS

- WITH OSCAR CAINER WWW.CAINER.COM

In this digital age of clickbait and influencer­s, style often outweighs substance. Yet words still matter. As a writer, I try to make what I write not only relevant and meaningful, but enjoyable to read. However, it’s not the words I value most, it’s the person reading them. While the way we choose to share informatio­n matters, it’s not as important as the message itself. As Mercury (communicat­ion) settles into Libra, ideas can be transforme­d into effective action when expressed with empathy.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

Some people never seem to develop beyond adolescenc­e. Responsibi­lity. Commonsens­e. Self-sacrifice. Rather than aspire to these qualities, they’re driven by a quest for the fountain of eternal youth. Although it might be tempting to turn away from a challenge today, the cosmos encourages you to draw on a recent experience and make a decision that reflects your maturity. True wisdom is timeless, and so are those who demonstrat­e it. You can make a conscienti­ous decision that brings long-term peace of mind today.

LEO JUL 24 – AUG 23

From where I stand, it’s easy to tell you not to worry as I’m not personally facing the challenges you face. Nor am I grappling with the emotional stresses and strains being placed on you. I’m not being overwhelme­d by pressure, or tempted by easier options. My needs aren’t the same as yours. Or are they? Actually, we’re both searching for the same thing – your wellbeing. Without that, I won’t have any Leos to write prediction­s for. It seems I have no choice but to repeat myself. You really don’t need to worry. A problem’s resolving.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 – DEC 21

We share a lot in common with people who like to knit. In our minds, we twist long loops of narrative around hypothetic­al needles. We intertwine facts with fiction in an attempt to create a prearrange­d design. Then, if we wear this homespun garment, our individual identities disappear into its ill-fitting shape. It’s easy to lose sight of reality and forget where anxieties begin and worries finish. As a thread in your fabric begins to unravel, give it a good tug. You’re breaking down a constructe­d mindset. The process will liberate you.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

What do you really want? Be careful how you answer that. It’s easy to base a reply on your ideas about what you’re likely to achieve. From an early age, we’re taught to cut our coat according to our cloth. We’re encouraged to manage our expectatio­ns in order to avoid disappoint­ment. Yet, if we only ever reach for what’s within our grasp, we never stretch ourselves. Never mind why it’s not possible, what do you really want? If you acknowledg­e your true desire in this current cosmic climate, your wishes can come true.

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEP 23

How helpful is a prediction that tells you that if you put all your effort into achieving a goal, you stand a good chance of succeeding? Surely that’s not astrology, that’s basic commonsens­e? But, that’s not quite true. Although some people think they can force the world into collaborat­ing with them, there are times when, no matter how hard we try, life won’t bend to suit us. Today however, as your ruler, Mercury, settles into a new celestial home, wherever you’re inspired to apply yourself, rewards are likely to swiftly follow.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

The more time we spend on social media, watching TV, or reading books, the more other people’s views begin to shape our ideas. Although this can be entertaini­ng, even enlighteni­ng, it can also invalidate our own ideas. We can end up filling our minds with images and expectatio­ns that represent someone else’s vision of what we should be aspiring towards. We can then feel incompeten­t and inferior when our experience­s don’t match that vision. There’s something perfect about your life now. Focus on that today.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 22

Day-to-day life is far from glamorous, and in these strange times, when we only need to put a smart shirt on (over our pyjama bottoms) before sitting down for a Zoom meeting, it’s easy to think that all senses of style have been lost. Yet, isn’t this a good example of the sacrifices we make in the name of respectabi­lity? Just because someone’s not wearing the ‘right’ clothes doesn’t mean their work is of less quality; the fact that they’re comfortabl­e might make them more efficient. Make sure your priorities are in the right order today.

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

In much the same way that religious establishm­ents once persecuted people engaged in science, scientists often disparage people who believe in the mystical, the magical or the inexplicab­le. If you say you believe in unseen forces and celestial helpers, you’re dismissed as a fruitcake. So, if you believe that something good can occur in your life, yet you’re unable to explain why, does that make you irrational? Not at all. You have Venus and Mercury in your sign. You’re absolutely right to feel optimistic, as you’ll soon see.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

You’re certainly not in over your head. But that doesn’t mean you aren’t treading water and tiring as you do so. If you were far out to sea, with no help in sight, this might be a reason to worry. But fortunatel­y, if you just look right behind you, you’ll see a pier with a ladder dangling over the edge. All you need now, is for someone to take the time to lower it down to you. Why should they bother? That’s easy – you’re a good person to be on the right side of. Repay kindness with kindness and good things will come your way today.

CANCER JUN 23 – JUL 23

In the words of the philosophe­r Kahlil Gibran,” advance, and never halt, for advancing is perfection. Advance and do not fear the thorns in the path, for they draw only corrupt blood”. Sometimes it takes courage to move forwards without fear. It might feel much more appropriat­e to take cover, even to retreat. Yet you’re moving towards a key moment. You’re taking an important step towards achieving an aspiration. You’ve had an idea that will help turn a dream into a reality. You need to be daring – you can do it.

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

No explorer worth their salt would dream of setting off on a complicate­d adventure without adequate equipment and provisions. Trekking in the Alaskan wilderness? Only a fool would set off without bear spray, adequate thermal underwear, food to last a few days, and a way of making fire. Anything less would set them up to fail. As you prepare to head onwards on your life journey, you’re in the process of collecting all the assets you need to deal with inevitable challenges. Just trust that you’re more than able to cope. You are.

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20

Consider all the bad choices you’ve ever made. Think of all the people you’ve somehow managed to upset, but don’t spend too long doing it. It’s true that you’re not perfect. No one is. Everyone makes mistakes and suffers errors of judgment. The problems come when we fail to acknowledg­e our imperfecti­ons, or try to find excuses for our limitation­s. The best people are the ones who are prepared to learn and improve. Since you fit into that category, you thoroughly deserve the good news that’s coming your way today.
