Horoscopes

Pisces

February 20 – March 20

There is much to gain from putting your ideas forward to someone who can assist. Try not to be over-sensitive to comments that are meant to help. You cannot please everyone at work and, when you have tried to, take a step back. The main emphasis at the moment should be at home, especially if you want to keep a loved one onside. Romance is not dead! Your Luck: Remember that something said or given that is thoughtful is worth more than grand gestures.

Cancer June 22 – July 22

Taking the lead at the weekend sees you in charge and helping others. What could be more satisfying? This certainly takes your mind from a longer-term question that you do not yet have the answer to. Romantic overtures midweek may leave you cold, but it takes only a moment to be kind in your response. Avoid making promises you really don’t want to keep. Your Luck: Choose your words carefully. A light retort could be misunderst­ood.

Scorpio

October 24 – November 22

A slowing down of a plan should not stop you from tying up loose ends. Indeed, the smallest detail could hold you up later if not sorted out now! Where you cannot find solutions maybe there is a need to be more flexible and even forgiving. Others make mistakes that seem stupid to you. Still, what is done is done. Use that great imaginatio­n to see another way forward. Your Luck: There are so many different ways at looking at things. Try some of them.

Aries

March 21 – April 20

Aim to be at your best this week. A last-minute chance to shine should not be missed. Someone who has great faith in you could be working away in the background, lucky you! Romance can be tricky. Maybe your loved one (or the one you have in mind) is very much occupied with their own problems. Let them know where you are if they want to relax and have some fun. Your Luck: There is nothing more attractive than that sparkle in your eyes. Share the joy.

Leo

July 23 – August 23

They say that travel broadens the mind. In your case, this week it could fire off a great moneymakin­g idea. This needs your attention, so leave the romance until midweek or the weekend. Distractio­ns could cost you money! When you are with someone who interests you, avoid making a promise that you will later regret. Honesty with this person really is the best policy! Your Luck: Temptation is something that seems to be surroundin­g you. It gets you in a spin!

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

Anything that is holding up your plans could now be kept moving. How? By asking for a little help! There is no point in mentioning past mistakes to someone in authority. Overconfid­ence or over-familiarit­y could lead you to do this. Where someone is higher in the pecking order, respect is expected. Getting ahead now is all about understand­ing. Your Luck: Do nothing rash even if you think it does not matter. This week everything seems to.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

You are at your most sparkling now. Use your powers of attraction on someone very important. Do something special for a loved one midweek and the weekend could be surprising! This time is all about deciding (at last) what you really want from others and setting about a plan to get it. Remember that something that comes too easily may not be worth having in the long term. Your Luck: Going all-out for fun? Fine if you don’t pretend it is something more.

Virgo

August 24 – September 23

Romance is not far away and an unexpected meeting brings someone special to your circle. There could be a conflict between work and romance but you are more than capable of juggling this situation. Maybe a special date could be arranged for the weekend rather than the week? Anyone who is not understand­ing of this may not be the one for you. Your Luck: Being open and honest gets just the right response wherever you are.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Keep communicat­ions open on the home front. This is worth doing even if you see no chance of a real breakthrou­gh. Taking anyone for granted is not to be recommende­d. In particular, make a proper romantic gesture to a loved one midweek. How often do you give them a surprise? Increase your activities together over the rest of the month and beyond. Your Luck: Sometimes making a special effort is worth its weight in gold.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Something that has been forming in your mind may now find the right time to come out. Don’t be afraid to put your ideas and suggestion­s forward. Last month’s changes are still settling in your life. Making sense of them is not so easy, but it will happen. In the meantime look to the weekend to get out and have some fun. I know you don’t feel in the mood, but you will! Your Luck: Make the week a good mix of responsibi­lity and fun. Both can go together.

Libra

September 24 – October 23

Have a good chat about anything that is troubling or puzzling you. Things that irritate at work could impact on your home or love life. Keeping control of your temper is a good start. You need to try (again) talking rather than confrontat­ion. It takes a lot to get you cross, so feelings seem to be running high. A close friend is the most understand­ing and practical. Your Luck: Take each day in your stride and it is wonderful how much you get done.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Talking too much could see you get yourself in tangles. However, a few select words in the right direction can solve a dilemma. Overconfid­ence, usually desirable, should be curbed. A little humility makes you more loveable in any case! Again, when giving a gift make it small and tasty rather than flash and expensive. Impress with your words. Your Luck: Wearing your heart on your sleeve really sums you up right now.
