Friday the 13th is supposedly unlucky. If that’s the case, the planets haven’t got today’s memo! As the Pisces Full Moon arrives, it makes a strong connection with Jupiter, the planet of luck and opportunit­y. Meanwhile Mercury and Venus converge today as they prepare to head into Libra this weekend. This is a good time to make a deal or come to a mutually beneficial arrangemen­t. So, although I wouldn’t recommend walking under ladders, there will be some worth climbing that will help reach success!

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

In many countries, the unluckiest day of the year falls on Tuesday the 13th rather than Friday! Since luck seems to depend on whether we believe in it or not, this informatio­n might well change your approach to today. So if you think that it’s going to be unlucky, there’s a good chance that it will be… and if you’re ambivalent, you won’t notice! Astrologic­ally, the Full Moon’s message to you is unequivoca­l. You can deal easily with an issue, leaving plenty of time to enjoy the weekend. Lucky you!

You’re blessed with some angelic qualities. No, no. I’m not trying to flatter you! Nor are you the only sign whose kindness and generosity is legendary. Irrespecti­ve of their date of birth, all humans are capable of kindness, empathy and forgivenes­s. Yet, these positives usually come with a number of more problemati­c behaviours. Fortunatel­y, you’ve buried these traits so deeply that you’re not even sure they’re exist! Don’t be afraid to be a bit bad, this weekend, but don’t forget to be exceptiona­l, too.

Although we value honesty and sincerity, imagine how challengin­g life would be if we all just said what we thought? We find it easy enough to fall out with people without hearing everything that’s going on in their heads (or them knowing the details inside ours). It’s hard to imagine anyone getting on! This weekend, even though there are some truths that definitely need to be spoken and heard, not all of them need to be shared. If you’re discreet you’ll enable a relationsh­ip to develop trust.

Some people consider today to be unlucky. Yet in other cultures, this superstiti­on is unknown, and no one so much as thinks about the dangers of walking under a ladder or having a black cat cross their path. Would their days be better if they knew? When we’ve got more reasons to be careful, we become more tense. When we’re tense we become more likely to make mistakes. And mistakes are often considered unlucky. This weekend, if you don’t think you have reasons to worry, you won’t have!

In the world of high finance, stocks and shares go up and down. Similarly, our emotional and personal investment­s reach highs and lows. With the Full Moon in your opposite sign this weekend, you’re on an upward climb towards success. You’re facing better opportunit­ies than you’ve seen for a long time. You’re being admired and respected. Not everything is perfect, which is why the date today might add to your anxiety. But there’s no ‘low’ on your horizon. You’re heading for a secure, happy place.

Few of us are gifted with photograph­ic memories. Our ability to recollect is distorted by our emotional attachment­s to the past. We might feel so insecure about our actions, that we unconsciou­sly find a way to blame someone else. Nor are positive memories exempt from distortion; love, happiness and joy blur them around the edges, smoothing sharp patches and imbuing them with a rosy glow. In order to make an informed decision, this weekend, you need to look at the past objectivel­y.

Psychologi­sts extol the benefits of having a more childlike approach to life. Of course, there’s a big difference between being childlike and childish. When we’re being childish, we tend to sulk and throw tantrums (just think of how politician­s behave when they can’t get their own way). Being childlike is the opposite of this; it’s being open to other people’s ideas, and acting lovingly and appreciati­vely. You can easily overturn any childish fears today, and look forward to a weekend of childlike hope. Make Friday the thirteenth your lucky day! Call 1900 959 005.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

‘Frenemy’. It seems that we enjoy disliking others so much that a new word has been invented to describe dysfunctio­nal relationsh­ips. Some people prefer them to normal friendship­s. Having, or being a nemesis can bring purpose to life and alleviates boredom. It also needs reciprocit­y - whether conscious or not. Friday 13th brings you an opportunit­y to look at an old struggle through a new lens. You can heal a wound or deepen it. Your choice will define your weekend, so choose well!

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Some people think that just spending five minutes in your company gives them the right to venture their opinions. Of course, sudden, empathetic connection­s can be forged in a matter of seconds; and knowing someone for years is no guarantee of real understand­ing. So we sometimes allow an instant connection to overturn accepted social behaviours and convention­s. Don’t let someone who doesn’t really know you, lead you in a direction that’s not right for you this weekend. Make Friday the thirteenth your lucky day! Call 1900 959 005.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

Even homely types have special places they like to go to. Whether we prefer to wander across continents or walk in the park, we enjoy watching the world go by. Anything that gets us outside in the fresh air is an opportunit­y that should be taken advantage of, and a journey doesn’t have to be successful to be fruitful. Simply navigating the way from X to Y is a reason to celebrate. Don’t judge a recent venture by its result. This weekend, you’ll see the magic that’s been working behind the scenes.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

Even though some people don’t know that today is unlucky, everyone, the world over, seeks the same things; peace, love, freedom and respect. We need these in our lives if we are to experience life to its fullest, and share its joys with one another. So what on earth is happening in places where there’s a lack of these qualities? Those of us who have them must seek out areas where they’re absent, and share them around. The Full Moon brings you a chance to share your light and laughter.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

‘The wheels on the bus go round and round, all day long.’ Well, that’s the theory at least… it’s what happens as long as the bus isn’t stuck in rush hour. Sometimes, the things that we expect to happen, or to turn up automatica­lly, don’t do what they’re ‘supposed’ to do. Situations that should be simple turn into conundrums. Even though this weekend holds moments when you’ll wonder what’s happening, with the Full Moon in your sign, the potential for new possibilit­ies far outweighs any problems.
