OSCAR CAINER

TODAY is World Day For Farmed Animals. Few people believe I’m vegetarian. But I’m living proof you can be meat-free and still as unhealthy as anyone! As Venus enters Virgo today, it’s a good time to consider change that serves a greater good. That doesn’t mean we can’t find pleasure in the process. With Pluto turning direct this weekend, a little research may reveal hidden details that are delightfully appealing.

ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20 ANYONE can climb a mountain. All it takes is preparation, and the willingness to put one foot in front of the other. It’s only walking uphill, after all. The real work is mental. We gain nothing from standing back and allowing ourselves to be daunted by the size of what lies ahead. To pace ourselves and keep motivated, we just need to focus on the next step. As you prepare to climb your own personal mountain, set yourself small, achievable goals. You’ve easily got the skills you need to get to the top. Fulfil your dreams! Let the week’s exciting cosmic outlook reveal your heart’s true desires. For good news, call 1550 511 611.

TAURUS Apr 21 - May 21 LIKE space travel, much of the imaginary visions of science fiction have become part of our lives. Yet, the imaginative authors of the past dreamt of a utopian world too. Has that idea become part of our reality? Is life better and fairer than it used to be? This weekend, as Venus changes signs, you’ll be more sensitive to less-than-perfect situations. But there’s no need to be sceptical about the state of life on planet Earth. Even in tough times, many things are better than they were. A series of thrilling astrological events is about to unfold. For a forecast that could transform your life, call 1550 511 611.

GEMINI May 22 - June 22 YOU’RE preoccupied by an important issue which involves taking on a big responsibility. Your choice will affect a complex series of events — either you’ll be pivotal in diverting a calamity, or you’ll be responsible for creating one. Well . . . that’s how it feels. That’s why you’re putting so much effort into getting it right. Yet the weekend brings the insight to see that being deliberately indifferent will be much more effective. When you stand back, you’ll see that you have far less to lose than you think. In a week of cosmic creativity, you can transform your life. For four minutes of valuable news, call 1550 511 611.

CANCER June 23 - July 23 THIS is your moment. As you walk out on stage, to appreciative applause, you might finally realise just how much of a difference you’ve been making to the lives of the folk whose lives you touch. Your work might not be glamorous. It might not have brought the appreciation you deserve.

But it hasn’t gone unnoticed. Unbeknown to you, people have been watching and waiting, admiring your perseverance and tenacity. You deserve all the thanks you’ll receive, and more, this weekend. Use the unusual cosmic energy to create positive change this week. For valuable insight and news, call 1550 511 611.

LEO July 24 - Aug 23 IF WE don’t set goals for ourselves, it’s hard to achieve results and recognise success when it happens. Our daily lives are so full of tasks and demands that it’s easy to be distracted from our objectives if they don’t have deadlines attached to them. It’s simply a matter of keeping the deadline in perspective. This weekend, it’s important to remember that there’s a degree of flexibility involved with a current project. Don’t let your determination prevent you from enjoying a surprising and fun option. How can you benefit from this week’s powerful cosmic climate? It can change your life. For good news, call 1550 511 611.

VIRGO Aug 24 - Sep 23 HAVING been around the block a few times, you’ve got the lie of the land. You’re wise enough to know that the latest car or perfume isn’t going to make your life like the adverts. Nor do your relationships look much like those in romantic comedies. Is this a bad thing? Should you be disappointed with your lot? No! What you have is more real, more concrete, and more durable. As Venus (planet of love and abundance) moves into Virgo this weekend, it brings star quality to your world. Enjoy! Take full advantage of the inspiring celestial alignments; solve your problems and find solutions! Call 1550 511 611.

LIBRA Sep 24 - Oct 23 AND that brings your forecast to a close. Really? Oops, I seem to have started your prediction with the end. How confusing. I wonder if the end is at the beginning, can I just swap them over so that everything makes sense again? As Pluto turns direct this weekend, it enables you to patiently untangle a confusion of ideas and possibilities and rearrange them into an order that makes more sense. By going back to the start, you’ll be able to see where you’re heading. Next week promises awesome cosmic activity. Take advantage of the potential for transformation. Call 1550 511 611.

SCORPIO Oct 24 - Nov 22 YOU deserve to be happy, to know that you’re loved, cherished and appreciated. Yet it’s easy to lose sight of our natural rights when we’re caught in the worries and stresses of life. The danger is that we fall into the trap of prioritising negative emotions over positive ones. There’s a reason people talk about ‘wellbeing’ — in these difficult times we need to take extra care of ourselves. This weekend, as your ruler Pluto turns direct, it enables you to focus on your own needs for a change. You’ve got lots to look forward to! Find inspiration in your latest four-minute forecast. Call 1550 511 611.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 - Dec 21 SINCE we’ve all got so much to do, it’s not surprising that we take things at face value. Who has time to stop and think, let alone be imaginative or curious enough to see beyond the obvious? From where you’re standing, there seems to be one logical conclusion to a current complicated circumstance. Yet just the slightest change of position would reveal another (more optimistic) possibility. The events of this weekend bring insights that will enable you to find a more inspiring route forwards. Even if you don’t usually call your in-depth prediction, you should hear the inspiring news. Call 1550 511 611.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20 CERTAIN situations upset our ability to verbalise our truth. Instead of saying ‘This decision makes me uncomfortable’, we find ourselves shouting, ‘You idiot, what did you do that for?’ This puts the other person on the defensive, which means that the chance of a civilised conversation is drastically reduced. You’re able to recognise this tendency in yourself. This weekend, with Saturn now moving forwards, you can also see this trait in someone else. Your empathy can break down barriers. Powerful changes are possible as the planets positively combine. Make the most of their influence. Call 1550 511 611.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 - Feb 19 JUST because your plan isn’t working out as you would have liked doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not working. We all sometimes misconstrue the signals the cosmos sends us. We tend to read helpful coincidences as being affirmative, and the slightest setback as a harbinger of doom. You may find yourself in a position where others turn to you for help this weekend. As Pluto turns direct, no problem will be hopeless. You’ll find innovative ways to solve complicated issues. In a time of celestial positivity, you can transform your life. Your week ahead forecast is packed with news. Call 1550 511 611.

PISCES Feb 20 - Mar 20 WHEN it comes to the natural world and strange behaviour, the habit of lemmings is hard to beat. Yet the idea that they all go to the edge of a cliff and throw themselves off is actually untrue. Apparently, this myth originated in a badly researched natural history programme and, ironically, we humans, in supposedly ‘lemming-like’ fashion, fell for the story hook, line and sinker. This weekend, no matter what anyone around you is doing, you’re not obliged to follow. You’re free to be you. Capture the powerful energy of the positively star-filled skies. Call your in-depth, four-minute forecast: 1550 511 611.
