Your stars

Your heavenly destiny for the week August 12- 18

Leo JUL 24 - AUG 23

Shake out that mane and prepare to shine as interesting people – and some amazing opportunities – will be drawn towards you. Thursday’s full moon might expose a few cracks on the relationship front, but your newfound clarity could prompt some overdue changes.

Virgo AUG 24 - SEP 23

Thanks to the midweek full moon, a health or fitness kick could hit the agenda, but for best results, wait until early next week when Mars bursts into your sign. Meanwhile, clear your kitchen pantry, then join forces with a motivated group or person. Wear red for extra oomph!

Libra SEP 24 - OCT 23

If winter has brought grey skies, the clouds are parting, allowing Venus to cast her healing rays. Friends might give unexpected love and support, while at work, Jupiter could propel a helpful person into your path. On the romance front, seeds sown over the coming weeks should blossom and grow!

Scorpio OCT 24 - NOV 22

As Jupiter jolts into forward gear, an interesting offer might hit the table – just be sure your support players are in place. If finances have been playing on your mind, late winter could bring much-needed breakthroughs. At the very least, you should dream up some interesting ideas!

Sagittarius NOV 23 - DEC 22

Your ruling planet Jupiter desires growth and expansion, but Saturn tends to stir up doubts and fears. Good planning and advice is key, and as luck would have it, helpful people are heading your way. Some might even meet an inspirational mentor as spring approaches!

Capricorn DEC 23 - JAN 20

Are you finding it hard to make a decision? Don’t panic – wait until next week, when you’ll glimpse the bigger picture. Avoid spending sprees and enjoy some old-fashioned fun instead – picnics, games nights and movies should do the trick. As a bonus, Venus is giving many relationships a new lease of life.

Aquarius JAN 21 - FEB 19

Emotional connections are becoming deeper this month, so reach out and spend time with people who make you feel good about life. Group pursuits could tap into hidden talents or fundraising venues might strike gold. Friendships forged through early spring should last a lifetime.

Pisces FEB 20 - MAR 20

Spring is just around the corner and for you, it’s the season of fresh starts. Prepare for the change of pace by paying close attention to your health – a new exercise programme or eating plan could work wonders. Being in the great outdoors should recharge your batteries, so why not plan an excursion?

Aries MAR 21 - APR 20

Mercury’s movement through your party zone should usher you into a pleasant social phase. Games and sporting events may set the scene for fun, and for singles, there could be some romance. If life’s stresses are getting you down, kicking up those heels might be just what is needed.

Taurus APR 21 - MAY 21

Now that Jupiter is speeding up, life should gain renewed momentum – and throw up some surprises too. For some, the full moon may shed light on a work-related matter, while for others, someone’s behaviour might finally make sense. At home, expect visitors or even an impromptu party. Woohoo!

Gemini MAY 22 - JUN 21

As your ruling planet Mercury moves into Leo, the pace will accelerate. Are you ready for some unexpected twists and turns? Some Twins may find they’re driving or running around more, while for others, a new job or pastime could keep you on your toes. If you’re looking for romance, things look to happen very quickly.

Cancer JUN 22 - JUL 23

The sun and Venus are forming a lucky link, so expect your confidence (and bank balance!) to receive a boost. A delayed payment might appear, allowing you to move forward on a project. The weekend could bring a tempting offer, but avoid making plans under Sunday’s quiet moon.
