ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

There are two types of ‘conversati­on’. The first is the healthy sort of dialogue where opinions are shared, considered, and responded to. At a glance, the second looks like the first. Yet, if you look closer, it becomes clear that two people are speaking but neither is listening. One way to change the dynamic is to pay very close attention to what’s being said to you. You can fix a problem by listening to the message behind the words.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

People of all different cultures and faiths believe in a day of reckoning, when sins and virtues will be weighed, and they will be judged for the way they have led their lives. But aren’t we subjected to this already? After all, we’re judgmental by nature; it doesn’t take much for us to criticise and deride someone’s actions (and we don’t hold back from judging ourselves either). A current issue seems to be pinned on the way you handled a past decision. Yet who has the right to say this was wrong? Change is possible now. Get some valuable help. Call 1300 017 319

SAGITTARIU­S NOV 23 - DEC 21

My son was showing me how to play Pooh sticks the other day. Not that I didn’t remember how to play, but it’s been a long time since I spent time on a bridge, dropping twigs into the water and racing to the other side to see whose stick ‘won’ the race. Boring compared to the action-packed entertainm­ent offered by our electronic equipment? Well... there’s something brilliant about the simple joy of childish imaginatio­n. Pare things back before the Equinox... you’ll rediscover something delightful. For great advice to guide you through this week. Call 1300 017 319

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

What’s the best course of action when you need a new shelf? Would you call someone who’s good at DIY, or dig out your tool kit? What about rewiring your washing machine, or retiling the shower? It depends on your knowledge, your level of experience, how much you’re prepared to learn, and how dangerous the job is. Money and time also need to be fitted into the equation. As we move towards the Equinox you face a dilemma. No matter what it involves, try the easiest route first. Change is possible now. Get some valuable help. Call 1300 017 319

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

The problem with forgetting something is that we forget that we’ve forgotten it! What’s more... if we’ve forgotten that we’ve forgotten it, how can we ever be sure that we knew it in the first place? You’re a Virgo. You’re not used to having lapses of memory. You’re the one who everyone relies on to have all the informatio­n. Yet take it as a positive sign if you find yourself uncharacte­ristically less organised than usual. You’re clearing the decks for the mental ‘reboot’ that the Equinox brings.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

Although being generous with the benefit of the doubt is kindhearte­d, it’s unwise to be extravagan­t with our ability to understand why someone hasn’t fulfilled a promise. Leopard’s rarely change their spots. Capricorns are usually wise enough to discern the truth behind an explanatio­n. Yet part of the reason you find yourself in this position is because you over-invested your trust. As long as you don’t feel responsibl­e for making everyone else feel OK, everything will work out fine.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

One of the reasons Disney films are a success is that they make their heroes and heroines appeal to us. We take them to our hearts. The villains have just the right amount of evil about them too. We’re never confused about who to root for; like in Westerns, operas and politics, they’re two clear sides which rarely meet in the middle. Life, on the other hand, contains areas of grey... where it’s not so easy to tell right from wrong. Hold back before making a judgment. Another scene is unfolding.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

How are you supposed to react when a recent developmen­t seems impossibly unfair? Yet isn’t that just life on planet Earth? As soon as we’ve overcome an injustice, another springs up in its place. The harder we work to vanquish inequaliti­es, the more there seem to be. So, what’s the solution? You can’t take on the world. Being able to prioritise is key; and, for that, you need some support. Team up with someone special, and you’ll find that a problem shared really is a problem halved.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

The cosmos is comprised of trillions of teeny, tiny particles - so tiny that many of them are invisible under even the strongest of microscope­s. These are the building blocks of our world. It’s fascinatin­g, isn’t it? Well, perhaps. But isn’t it also kind of irrelevant? Unless you’re a nuclear physicist, for most of us, things only matter at a tangible, perceivabl­e level. We’re more concerned with how things make us feel. Delve to the heart of an issue today, and you’ll find something inspiring indeed. Change is possible now. Get some valuable help. Call 1300 017 319

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

In the words of Rudyard Kipling ‘If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs...’ It’s not easy to keep calm when you have such a lot of different concerns. It’s not just in your personal life either; with global issues impacting on you, it’s easy to feel as if you’re on the brink of a disaster. But you often walk along the edge of a precipice; it’s just that this time, you’re looking down rather than straight ahead. The approachin­g Equinox brings a welcome change of vista.

OCT 24 - NOV 22

People who live in sunny climes and keep their aircon on high run the risk of its motor burning out; which would leave them in a hellishly hot place. We tend to easily overreact to situations; and if we’re not careful we swing from one extreme to another. Although you’re tempted to draw a dramatic line under a situation, it’s worth taking a moment to check that you’re not overreacti­ng. Being adaptable might not be as satisfying as being defiant, but defiance should be your last resort.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Something feels as if it’s set in stone. Even though you’re not happy about it, it can’t be changed. Yet things aren’t quite as obvious as they seem. Although you’re feeling stuck, your position is not as fixed as you fear. We tend to think that voices of authority need to be obeyed. We give them ‘the last word’. Yet there are very few occasions when we can’t ask for clarificat­ion and renegotiat­e. If you find the confidence to ask a difficult question today, you’ll be pleased with the answer.
