Horoscopes

- By Carlos O’Connor

Libra

September 24 – October 23

Although it has been necessary to keep a somewhat low profile of late, you seem now to be coming out of the shadows. When looking for a challenge seek out something where you use your brain rather than your brawn. Sharper than for some months, this is your strength and your way forward. Recent experience­s have made you feel at the mercy of circumstan­ces. Your Luck: The chance to take back control of those things that matter to you is a real perk to your confidence.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Making plans for the near future needs to go ahead. However, be flexible and ready to change at the last moment. In a wobbly world you need to be ready to shift with the flow. Having said that, this is a good time to trust your instincts, especially when it comes to health and home matters. Remember that asking for help is not a weakness but a strong decision, taking control. Your Luck: Work with others to make life more comfortabl­e. This is a time for caring and sharing.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

A desire to get out and about needs tempering with the needs of those around you. Soon enough you’ll be the heart and soul of your social circle again. Bringing people together at work shows the way to a new social activity. Try to keep one goal in mind rather than trying to do everything at once. Optimism is naturally rising and with good cause! Your Luck: A shift in moods is natural at this time but remember that each day can be a new start. Just be positive.

Scorpio

October 24 – November 22

Although your everyday tasks may be draining, looking for different ways to do them sets up a challenge. Boredom makes any day longer. Jumping out of that rut may take a few leaps of faith, but what have you to lose? Inside you is an energy waiting to be released. There’s no incentive to call on this unless you see what a change it could make. Where’s that imaginatio­n? Your Luck: Your instincts are working well this week. Somehow you know what’s best for you.

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

Taking time out for yourself is essential. Get cracking on any health checks. Investing in your health now can avoid future problems. Instincts are strong so don’t ignore those gut feelings that you would normally dismiss. Happier times ahead rely on your acting now. Look on the bright side but ensure a bright future. Check it out. What have you to lose? Your Luck: Taking care of yourself sometimes means not having so much time to help others. Still, needs must.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

A better understand­ing of the needs of family and friends irons out recent ruffles of disagreeme­nt. Look again at developing the ability to really listen. Soon you’ll be reading between the lines. This is a skill worth developing as it helps to get to the reasons why people act in a way you don’t understand. Ever thought after a comment, ‘Where did that come from?’ Your Luck: A better understand­ing of others can put you firmly in control this week. It’s an effort worth making.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

Be ready for the chance to make a change. Keeping your eyes and ears open means you can be in the right place at the right time. Everyone is looking for an attitude of optimism and enthusiasm. They have had enough of negative blasts of hot air! Could this be your chance to make a difference to the mood and feelings of those around you? Your Luck: Small changes in attitude feed through to others and help bolster their humour and feelings of wellbeing.

Aries

March 21 – April 20

There is a lighter feel at the moment mainly due to some long-awaited news. Part of you wants to go rushing ahead but recent events have made hesitation a habit. Getting back confidence takes time but try not to overthink what has happened in the past. It is another country and one that you are not bound to return to. Thoughts of today soon turn to thoughts of the future. Your Luck: Polish up that lively optimistic streak you are so admired for. Ahead is the only way.

Leo

July 23 – August 23

Someone new in your life triggers a yearning to travel. Planning this brings a breath of fresh air. Staying flexible and not taking on others’ worries frees your mind to see things clearly. Social restrictio­ns are irksome but, when looking for entertainm­ent, a new and unusual activity comes to mind. Something is happening that deserves attention. Your Luck: Past pleasures and a desire to keep a link to your childhood means bringing attention to proposed changes.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Although there’s work to be done on many finer details in your life, progress is showing itself. Try new things and make fresh social contacts, even if only online. The future needs planning for, or others may be one step ahead of you. Ask for what you want and have the confidence to expect to get it. Right now the only thing holding you back is a lack of imaginatio­n. Your Luck: Partners can make such a difference to your outlook. Seek to work as part of a team.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

After a quieter start to the week there’s the chance to take stock. Movements on the work front may change and become confusing. However, keep an eye open for a new and more interestin­g way forward. Explaining how you feel to loved ones should bring an understand­ing of your general mood and recent actions. Being human is not always comfortabl­e! Your Luck: No-one should expect perfection in others at this time. Nerves are sensitive.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Getting ahead with finances needs a sharp eye and a quick bit of decision-making. Being at the heart of something new workwise really taxes you physically and mentally. This may be just what you need. Instead of tedious challenges this can bring excitement and a sense of moving ahead. Just be prepared to jump out of that rut and put some wings on your shoes! Your Luck: Take the chance to make progress when given the opportunit­y. Don’t look for perfect, look for movement.
