Horoscopes

- By Carlos O’Connor

Libra September 24 – October 23

With your goodwill and kindest intentions you cannot change the world. Disliking unfairness makes it sometimes even hard for you to watch the news. This week, however, you have to show a strong face to those who would take unfair advantage of that kindness. Take a practical and clear look at your responsibi­lities. Are they really all yours? Your Luck: Keep in tune with your heart and imaginatio­n. Together they hold the solution to an emotional tangle.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Sometimes you may feel as though a giant cork is blocking your progress. Well, it isn’t really a cork as much as something that you just feel is there. However, it is not all in your mind. To remove it you have to find out who put it there, so spend a week looking clearly at those around you and seeking some answers. Could you manage a few days away? Your Luck: Clear your workload to free your mind for the weekend. How about a little romance?

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Rewarding times are ahead and this week you find out just how much you are appreciate­d. When asking for a favour or rise at work, be flexible about timing but firm. Chats with family that you had last week now seem more relevant. Maybe someone did not make a situation clear enough. Anyway, things seem to be tumbling into place quite nicely now. Your Luck: Take all the attention that you can get this week. You deserve a bit of pampering.

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

With a quiet start to the week, a crazy few days midweek may try and take you by surprise. Still, having been warned you will be at least partly prepared. A bit of a cloud that has been hovering over your finances seems to be clearing. A little splatter of rain could make you jumpy, however. Be determined not to be in the same situation again. It makes sense. Your Luck: Although it takes time to relax, make this weekend special.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

It is a puzzling time for you but, just when it seems unsolvable, along comes the answer. By the weekend you will feel as though a weight has been lifted from your mind. Was it as simple as making sure that everyone pulls their weight? Have you been financiall­y supporting someone who could really help themselves more? You have a kind heart to be taken advantage of. No? Your Luck: Crazy ideas come and go but one seems to be sticking. Could this be the answer?

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Have you been putting emotional sticking plasters over a relationsh­ip? Well, this week you will need to make a firm decision about how to move forward. Yes, it is time to speak out and perhaps even to cut your losses. Unable to look ahead right now? A few weeks of adjustment will not change that. Be clear, though, that there is a bright time ahead that is at present hidden. Your Luck: Optimism is your tool of choice against bad feelings. Use with determinat­ion!

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

A virtual cloudburst of good things washes your blues away this week. Don’t resist good fortune by trying to delay the inevitable or be embarrasse­d by an unexpected display of affection. Bring out your happy face and give it some exercise! Have you been grumpy of late? Check out any health worries and decide what it is that you really want from your life. Your Luck: Wake up your senses with a country walk or a soothing massage. Music anyone?

Aries March 21 – April 20

What does the word ‘preparatio­n’ mean to you? There is something that you are about to tackle that needs careful planning, so it is worth getting the input of friends and family to give a nicely balanced picture. Make your evenings relaxed affairs where you let go of the busy days. Here is the chance to build on a couple of really worthwhile relationsh­ips. Your Luck: Romance rather than fiery passions this week. Something deeper is afoot.

Leo July 23 – August 23

Although an unremarkab­le week, it is a chance to clear out both your mind and your lifestyle. Have you been short of spare time lately? It is amazing how good it makes you feel to clear the clutter. That clutter may include some friendship­s that can no longer be seen as good for you. A shuffle of the emotional cards is overdue. Keep an eye out for those aces that brighten the road ahead. Your Luck: Life is not a game of chance but it can be influenced by luck. Look for yours.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

A bumpy emotional ride is to be expected at the moment. Things change from day to day in a situation, and yet, in a way, nothing seems different. Do you feel that you are going nowhere fast? Let this be a week when you back off from things and people who are causing you grief. A change of scenery for a few days can clear both your mind and heart. Your Luck: You may not be in the mood for romance but a hug with a friend can be pretty comforting!

Taurus April 21 – May 21

Some decisive plans get a boost this week. Look around for those who have the experience to draw on. Be willing to ask questions and listen carefully to the answers. This also goes for the relationsh­ip with a loved one. They are trying to get a message to you. Never be too busy to listen to those who really matter in your life. Lend an ear? Your Luck: A crazy idea may not be as mad as it seems. Ask someone who is known to be very sober for their opinion.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Bright lights shone on your relationsh­ips this week are very revealing! Yes, all of the faults can be seen but you also discover some magical areas. Someone who has been working in the background on your behalf comes as a lovely surprise. You don’t have to look for a reason why people want to help you and be your friend. You are just so loveable! Your Luck: Get ready for a very busy weekend full of fun. A surprise visit brings mixed emotions.
