HOROSCOPE

Oct 23 – Nov 21

FOR weeks, you’ve been shoring up certain plans. The real problem isn’t those arrangements but, rather, the fact you’re determined to keep things as they are. Worrying as even minor changes seem, try them out. Doing so will end those struggles and, at the same time, considerably broaden your perspective.

Nov 22 – Dec 20

LONG ago, you learnt to ignore those who insist you plan ahead. While they’ll happily lay out their activities and objectives for the weeks, months and even years to come, you regard arrangements of this nature as claustrophobic. Still, certain matters will need to be organised, and soon, or there’ll be chaos.

Dec 21 – Jan 19

IT’S the rare Capricorn who’ll allow anybody to take full responsibility for crucial tasks. While you may deputise somebody to deal with certain details, you’ll keep an eye on the proceedings. Now that you’re being distracted by other matters, you may have no choice but to trust the individual in question.

Jan 20 – Feb 17

THERE have been decisions ti make and you’ve been making a lot of those lately, mostly because taking certain plans further has required ending one or two others. But, also, you recognise these are by no means all the decisions you will need to make over the coming weeks. Knowing that, you can afford to be more adventurous.

Feb 18 – March 19

BETWEEN the Sun’s superb alliance with your ruler Neptune last week, and the current one involving the ideas planet Mercury, you’re in an extremely fortunate position. While your past efforts are bearing fruit, new and worthwhile ideas are coming your way. Still, benefiting from them demands that you respond swiftly.

March 20 – April 19

NEXT week, both charming Venus and your ruler Mars depart one of the most practical angles of your chart. While you’ve dealt with numerous tedious but essential matters while they’ve been in this position, a few remain undone. It’s tempting to hope they’ll work themselves out. They won’t. Tackle these now.

April 20 – May 20

FEW things are more upsetting than discovering somebody you’ve trusted isn’t reliable. Don’t jump to conclusions just yet. Between the current fast pace and unexpected developments everybody’s facing, others simply haven’t had time to tell you about events influencing their circumstances.

May 21 – June 20

USUALLY, planning ahead makes life easier. However, by the time of the powerful Gemini Full Moon taking place later this month on the 25th, your priorities could change dramatically. Knowing that, for now, consider what works, what doesn’t and what may need to go, but save any lasting decisions for later.

June 21 – July 21

ARE your ideas good but lacking in vital facts? Judging by the current planetary setup, in certain crucial situations, you’re facing both persistent and, often, unexpected developments and a scarcity of information. Don’t let this stop you. Just ensure that, as facts surface, you can easily make the necessary changes.

July 22 – Aug 22

SINCE mid-October, there’s been a tremendous emphasis on practicalities, from money to the wise use of your resources. While this has forced you to face several important matters, it’s been seriously dull. There are a few left to handle. Tackle them and put them to rest before this cycle ends next week.

Aug 23 – Sept 22

IT’S not that you’ve been secretive in sidestepping certain facts. On the contrary, you didn’t realise that this information is crucial. Take time to review these, from the beginning to now. This will eliminate confusion but also make it far easier to discuss the ideas you have in mind with more clarity.

Sept 23 – Oct 22

WHILE, usually, weighing up your options before making a decision is wise, with things moving so swiftly, you’ll have little time to think, and still less, for examination. That being the case, do something out of character and act purely on instinct. Currently, these feelings are more reliable than any amount of analysis.
