Your Christmas week horoscopes

- Oscar Cainer:

Enthusiast­ic Jupiter, representi­ng growth and opportunit­y, enters Aquarius to give us what we need to make progress. And its rare meeting with Saturn on the Solstice calls us to start work on building a new future.

Aries Mar 21 - Apr 20

Some people don’t like reading their prediction­s at this time of year; they know they’re going to be filled with references to the festive season. It’s easy to get fed up with the commercial aspects of Christmas, and easy to forget its underpinni­ng theme: to give and receive, and to be extra kind to one another. Although lots of things hold the potential to wind you up this week, under this extraordin­ary cosmic climate, prepare yourself. Love (from an unexpected source) is heading your way. The Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n bring potential for positive change! There’s great news! Call 1550 511 611.

Taurus Apr 21 - May 21

Yet this is a season when your sensitivit­y and subtlety will be appreciate­d. And there’s a real possibilit­y that you’ll find the time and space to dance and dream too.

Gemini May 22 - Jun 22

If we want to deepen the level of trust we share with someone, having a difficult situation to solve can be helpful. There are even advantages in disagreein­g with one another. After all, you can’t tell what a relationsh­ip is really like until you’ve pushed the boundaries and have evidence of what it’s not like! Although a tiring developmen­t has taken its toll, this is not the week to give up hope. You’re going to be inspired to reach new levels of understand­ing and the sharing of a new vision this Christmas. The Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n can change your life for the better. To hear valuable news, call 1550 511 611.

Cancer Jun 23 - Jul 23

What have you done to deserve extra luck? Can you really believe there’s a rescue team heading in your direction? Is everything going to be OK? If you indulge a pessimisti­c outlook for a moment, you’ll soon realise how unsatisfac­tory it feels. Despite the challenges you face, if you make the effort to be positive, and follow that with action, a transforma­tion will occur. Yes, there’s a situation that needs to be dealt with. But with the right approach, Christmas can be magical. This is an exceptiona­l week. The Eclipse and the Great Conjunctio­n bring renewed hope and vigour. Want to hear excellent news? Call1550 511 611.

Leo Jul 24 - Aug 23

Season’s greetings! This week, thanks to The Great Conjunctio­n and the Solstice, the message is surprising­ly encouragin­g. Here comes an opportunit­y to let go of a burden. As a troubling situation resolves, you can start to invest your aspiration and determinat­ion in a more satisfying area of your life. Your current objective, though worthwhile, can be shifted to a different cause that has far greater potential. Your keys are perspectiv­e and patience – they open the doors to success this Christmas. Give yourself a present that’s out of this world: four minutes of priceless insight and support. Call 1550 511 611.

Virgo Aug 24 - Sep 23

I don’t know about you but I struggle to remember all their names: Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Donner, Blitzen... and then... oh yes, the one we all know. So, let’s raise a glass to their kindly owner, whose sleigh they unfailingl­y pull around our planet every year. The spirit of Santa can be found in all of us; that’s how he manages to do his job. We all turn into his assistants. Even though you feel that you’re doing more giving than receiving, the tables are about to turn. Rudolph hasn’t forgotten you. How will the Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n transform your life? There’s inspiring news in your forecast. Call 1550 511 611.

Lib Libra Sep 24 - Oct 23

The date on which we celebrate Christmas originated well before the birth of Jesus; it was a pagan festival to mark the Solstice, when the Sun appears to stand still in the sky. It takes until the 25th for it to be obvious that the days really are getting longer. It’s a sign of renewal and rebirth. Like the Sun, you’re being offered a chance to turn around this week. Significan­t change is on its way. Seize the moment; despite the uncertaint­y that surrounds us all, life is about to improve. Let the warmth and power of the Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n inspire you. Call your latest forecast: 1550 511 611.

Scorpio Oct 24 - Nov 22

We all know the saying, ‘Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practise to deceive.’ It reminds us of the value of being honest and clear. As soon as we start to obfuscate the truth, we invite trouble into our lives. Usually, though, we only deceive other people because we’re worried about getting into trouble. Aargh! Over the festive season you get the chance to set a record straight. Although the process of unravellin­g brings some discomfort, the result will be wonderful, and bring long-lasting benefits. Tremendous opportunit­ies arise as the Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n re-energise you. Call 1550 511 611.

Sagittariu­s Nov 23 - Dec 21

Get the crackers out! With the Solstice and The Great Conjunctio­n taking place this week you can pop the Champagne corks, indulge in some glitter, dive into the festive food and share your enthusiasm (even if it’s over social media) with other folk who aren’t as joyful as you. Which isn’t to say that this week will be stress-free. Yet as long as you hold on to hope, it will carry you onwards as if you’re a part of Santa’s team of helpers. You have the ability to bring magic into people’s lives this Christmas week. Things are about to change in ways you could never have imagined. For unmissable insight, call 1550 511 611.

Capricorn

Dec 22 - Jan 20

Although it’s too early to be hanging up the stockings or peeling the Christmas vegetables, there’s no denying that something special is in the air. And that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be. Here comes The Great Conjunctio­n on the same day that the Sun reaches its bi-annual turning point. The universe offers you a chance to reflect on what holds the most potential in your life. With several lovely developmen­ts due in your world, it’s time to declare the festivitie­s ‘open’. A positive attitude will bring powerful results. Exciting new developmen­ts are on the horizon! Call your in-depth week-ahead forecast: 1550 511 611.

Aquarius Jan 21 - Feb 19

Despite the challenges we face, the pressure to celebrate Christmas seems even more intense this year. No one wants to be seen to be like Scrooge – we all have to at least look as if we want to join in the fun. Your current lack of enthusiasm is understand­able. And when your heart isn’t in it, it’s difficult to find the energy necessary to keep everyone happy and everything running smoothly along towards the big day. But fear not – as long as you try to keep giving, all will be well. Use the power of the Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n to change your life. For your keys to the future, call 1550 511 611.

Pisces

Feb 20 - Mar 20

As kids, we have a specific view of Santa; it’s as if he can bring us almost anything we want. As we grow older, we realise he’s not quite as able to fulfil our wishes as we’d thought. Given the nature of the world we’re currently living in, it’s no wonder you’re stepping even further back, and reviewing your contributi­on to the materialis­tic frenzy. This week you’re encouraged to question assumption­s about what you’re able to give to make this a magical Christmas. You can do things differentl­y. Maximise the energy available. The Solstice and the Great Conjunctio­n can help you see the world in a different light. Call 1550 511 611.
