OSCAR CAINER

LIKE many people, I’m finding home schooling tricky; but it’s not all bad. Sometimes, seeing through a child’s eyes reveals the wonder that adults take for granted. And rediscovering a thirst for knowledge is something I’d highly recommend. No matter the physical restrictions we face, our hearts and minds can remain open to opportunity. The weekend’s Jupiter-Uranus link brought new ways to explore inner freedom.

ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20 FEW people actually have bad intentions or delight in the arts of deception and confusion. It’s far more common for those who manifest these dark traits to be so self-deluded that they’ve convinced themselves and can infect others with their contaminating convictions. Like it or not, we’re all easily influenced by someone who tells us what we’re longing to hear. Following the Jupiter/Uranus link, although it would be wise to be a bit cautious, be more open to good news. For news to help you make 2021 the year your dreams come true, call your year-ahead forecast: 1550 511 611.

TAURUS Apr 21 - May 21 DO YOU consider yourself to be trustworthy? We’d better cross our fingers and hope that the answer is a resounding ‘yes’, because if you can’t trust you, then who can you trust? Even the most insecure of individuals would surely answer positively if asked to consider how much they trust themselves to make a mistake. If you’re anxious about a perceived imperfection, just as you regularly circumvent someone else’s shortcomings with a spot of creative thinking, you can take measures to counter it. For surprisingly encouraging news about your prospects in 2021, call your year-ahead forecast: 1550 511 611.

GEMINI May 22 - June 22 SOME spiritual gurus advise their students to be mindful about simple concepts such as ‘good’ and ‘bad’. We all have ways of making judgments about the situations that life presents us with. And, often, they’re based on the weakest of evidence. Things that look good can sometimes turn out to be bad. And vice versa. As a new possibility emerges, you need to be wary of jumping to conclusions. The afterglow of the Jupiter/ Uranus link suggests that it has more to offer than you think. There’s hope on your horizon in 2021. To hear the news in your year-ahead prediction, call 1550 511 611.

CANCER June 23 - July 23 DESPITE the fact that we can’t actually feel one another’s pain, or know (with absolute confidence) what they’re experiencing, we’re still able to share and communicate our emotions. And, when we want someone to know we’re nervous, angry or sad, we find it so easy to express our inner concerns that they pick up on our mood and even feel it for themselves. Today, you have the perspicacity and shrewdness to put some distance between yourself and someone else’s unhappiness. You’ll both benefit. Let 2021 bring the changes you desire. For encouraging news, call your year-ahead forecast: 1550 511 611.

LEO July 24 - Aug 23 WE SEEM to be surrounded by people who enjoy transforming straightforward ideas into theoretical conundrums. Experts like nothing more than blinding us with science. And if there’s a possibility of throwing some complicated technology into the mix, they’re happier than ever. You’d think no one wants ‘normal’ human beings to understand anything. The good news, following Jupiter’s link with innovative Uranus, is that the biggest issue you’re facing is simpler than you think. There’s good reason to be optimistic. Things can work out well in 2021. Call your year-ahead forecast: 1550 511 611.

VIRGO Aug 24 - Sep 23 ALTHOUGH there’s wisdom to the old saying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’, it’s not always helpful to apply this advice when you’re in doubt about whether something’s actually broken or not. Often, in our attempt to fix something, we’re alerted to another underlying problem that needs our attention. In the aftermath of the powerful Jupiter/Uranus link, take another look at an issue you’ve dismissed. You have the insight and the knowledge to get to the bottom of a problem. You can resolve it. 2021 holds great potential for you. Get it off to a great start with your forecast for the coming year. Call 1550 511 611.

LIBRA Sep 24 - Oct 23 WE ALL know that life on planet Earth teaches us many lessons. Yet it’s hard to understand why we keep encountering the same repetitive scenarios. Is the cosmic message just going over our heads? Unfortunately, the repetition often leads to more confusion. The harder we think, the more trapped in the details we become and, before we know it, we’re ignoring the blindingly obvious. Don’t over-analyse things. If you look for the bigger picture, you’ll reach a greater understanding. 2021 will be much better than you think. Find the best way to make it a year to remember. Call 1550 511 611.

SCORPIO Oct 24 - Nov 22 PICTURE the scene: the tumbleweed’s blowing around the town square. The citizens are hiding in their homes, peeking through their curtained windows, waiting as the rival cowboys saunter into view. How have these two characters come to such a dramatic situation? If you’re bold enough to take a closer look, you’ll see they bear a close resemblance to you. Your old self (which wants to cling to past habits) is squaring off with your new self (which is looking to the future). The question is, who do you want to win? Want to know what 2021 has in store? For inspiring news, call your year-ahead prediction: 1550 511 611.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 - Dec 21 ANY text book on astrology will tell you that Sagittarians love nothing more than a challenge. So that must surely be right? But since (as sceptical folk always love to remind us) there’s no scientific proof to the art of cosmic interpretation, maybe there’s no truth to this assertion. And, like all things mystical, there’s no way to prove it. Yet it’s true that you love to be challenged. You also like all things paradoxical. You’ll be pleased to know your day’s due to be full of both — in a good way. The cosmos is on your side in 2021. Find out how you can benefit from the luck and fortune it brings. Call 1550 511 611.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20 WHEN we make a decision that we don’t like something, we’re unlikely (if ever) to review our choice. Why would you bother? Who wants another try of something that left you with a sour taste in your mouth? Yet, suppose the context has fundamentally shifted and things aren’t as bad as they seemed. Maybe your reaction was out of proportion due to other dominating factors? In the aftermath of the Jupiter/ Uranus link, it’s worth revisiting territory you thought you’d left far behind. Gain power over your future. 2021 holds potential for transformation. Call your year ahead forecast for news: 1550 511 611.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 - Feb 19 EVEN if you decide to do nothing at all, nothing you do is inconsequential. Does that mean you need to approach every minor decision with the strategic mind of a chess master? If you were governed by a different sign, I might be minded to say ‘yes’. After all, it’s easy to miss what’s under our nose. Yet you’re an Aquarian and, as such, are naturally blessed with the power of foresight. Take that as a sign that your instinct is right — and trust what your gut is telling you. Let 2021 be filled with optimism and hope. Don’t miss your year-ahead forecast. For inspiring news, call 1550 511 611.

PISCES Feb 20 - Mar 20 DOES someone deserve more than you? Have they been more charitable? Have they kept their mind free of worldly pollutants and filled it with forgiveness? Only orthodox believers think that entry to Heaven or Hell is based on the angelic evaluation of every good, bad, selfish or generous action we’ve taken. Pragmatists believe that if they’re worthy of reward, the universe responds in kind, without weighing up deeds on the cosmic scales. If you know you’ve done your best, the rewards will materialise. Make your dreams come true in 2021. Let this week’s New Moon lead you towards success. Call 1550 511 611.
