Horoscopes

- By Carlos O’Connor

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

You are on an emotional high this week, bringing clarity to most situations. When you get to the point when you stop sorting out the dilemmas of others, you have arrived! A general dissatisfa­ction in your love life may be felt – or ignored. What are you afraid of? Will you stick with what you know or venture further afield? The heart and intuition conflict. Your Luck: Your first instinct may be the best one. Certainly it is something that you have tried to face before.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Wanting to be free to pursue your own goals needs a bit of work yet. There is a need to reassure those on the home front that you are planning ahead. Be seen to take responsibi­lity. This may mean thinking hard about what you want and how you are going to get it. Leaving a certain amount to chance means being flexible and not expecting perfection. Those who do so are easily disappoint­ed. Your Luck: Doing something creative is surprising­ly pleasing.

Libra September 24 – October 23

Taking charge of your health and wellbeing may be long overdue. This is a year for getting rid of some of those stresses and strains. Don’t try to please everyone or you will run yourself ragged. Joining a relative in a fun jaunt brings you closer together. It also gives the chance to compare your thoughts for the future. Love can cure many ills. Your Luck: Be prepared to show more of your emotions when it comes to friends.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Want to try something new to boost your income? This is a lucky week overall and you can only be held back by your own thoughts. What you fear could be the very thing that helps you thrive. When the answer is simple it is tempting to look for something more profound. Being part of a team taps into everything that is lacking in your emotional life. Your Luck: The road to satisfacti­on is right in front of you!

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Need others to come in line with you? Ask nicely. Being too pushy could see them scuttling in the opposite direction! This is a time to trust your instincts. When life seems a bit like a puzzle, make sure you have all the pieces to start with. As strongly as someone is making their case to you, that does not mean they are right. Someone shouting loudest does not impress you. Your Luck: Cast your net a little wider when seeking new friends. Try something different.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

When fired up about something it is hard for you to be diplomatic. Even so, curb your more extreme comments when dealing with a hot issue. A situation that seems to be going nowhere fast is annoying. You may have tried nagging and coaxing to no avail. Just step aside and get on with something else. There is nothing like disinteres­t to spur others into action. Your Luck: When the donkey in the room won’t move, walk away and it will follow.

Aries March 21 – April 20

Your opinion is important and sought out. It is something of a serious week to begin with and decisions need to be made. Having said that, some of those decisions are exciting and stimulatin­g. Indeed, you are pleased to have them. Taking charge of your health and wellbeing has to be a priority, so avoid the chance of burning yourself out. Stay active and energy will also stay high. Your Luck: Expect others to pull their weight and be ready to remind them of it.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Although someone is trying to get you to move a plan along faster, they are unlikely to succeed. As this New Year dawns it is clear that you must learn to say ‘no’. When others begin to think for themselves they will learn a strong lesson. Go for what you need and want yourself. It will make you stronger, more confident and much more willing to put in that extra effort. Your Luck: Being part of something new really pleases you. A sense of excitement comes from effort.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

There is something sparky about you this week and, indeed, this month. Someone or something that has been holding you back is now seen clearly. Not content to stay stuck in the same place, you seek freedom. This may not be overnight but if you don’t start you could fail. What would that mean to your creative future and success? Your Luck: Fortune favours the brave. Does that apply to you now?

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Wanting to get out and get things done sees you off to a flying start. So single-minded are you that others may see you as blinkered. Dodge any negative comments by keeping up the pace of change. Don’t expect everyone to agree with your attitude. That is because they are not you and fail to understand. Edginess runs through the week and makes you question everything. Your Luck: Keeping physically active stops that negative energy bringing your mood down.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

When asked your opinion, be prepared to be open and honest. You don’t need to agree with others just to keep them happy. Indeed, this is a time to do what is best for yourself both in the longer and short term. Quality leisure time could mean taking up a hobby that gives both physical and mental satisfacti­on. Good relationsh­ips do not have to depend on sacrifices. Your Luck: Don’t latch on to the first thing that appeals. Something different means stimulatio­n.
