YOUR STARS

(MONDAY, 18 DECEMBER 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – It would do you good to delay action until you have the necessary and complete information you need. And then waste no time in acquiring that information. With just a slight adjustment, you will be able to do what you had considered impracticable. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – Have the flexibility to take advice and to change course rather then obstinately continuing what you are doing whether right or not. A few changes will have to be made now and you should deliberate upon them before giving them effect. Leave a few alternatives should a change you have made fail. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Always respect another person’s religious opinions, even if you do not share them. Now is a good time to travel but try to avoid encumbering yourself with too much luggage. Give advice only if you are asked and only on matters about which you are pretty sure. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Try to leave as little as possible for later; to do so will only cause further delay. Doing what you think you ought is more important then doing what you think is expected of you. Your tact and charm will go a long way towards helping you overcome a problem today. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – Do not allow an ‘outsider’ to stand in the way of what you and your partner would like, but do not do anything that is inconsiderate. A person you particularly care for may be a little unpleasant; never mind no harm is meant and you can take it in your stride. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – There will be some unanticipated difficulties but resolve and determination will enable you to deal with or circumvent them. Endeavor to demonstrate that you are making as much of an effort as others in a team. Before coming to a decision, seek to look at a problem from every relevant point of view. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – What you have set out to do is definitely ambitious but that is no reason why you should not attempt it. Avoid telling everyone what you think irrespective of what they want to hear. Make sure you do not exceed your financial resources – cheaper choices are readily available. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – The result of a discussion is somewhat better than you had expected but you must act swiftly if you do not want to lose the advantage you have gained. There will be some clamor that you should make a move now, but do consider it most carefully; it might be best to stay where you are now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – You will tend to work until too late, resulting to fatigue and less than your best performance. Plan sufficiently and flexible enough to allow for upsets in your routine. If you are not sure about something, try to consult a reference book or seek help from a reliable source rather than guessing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Before embarking on an enterprise, make sure you have the necessary permits and licenses. Something that had been quite unclear to you will now become apparent and will enable you to form a far better assessment of the current situation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – If you think you cannot give up smoking, cut down on it; if you think you cannot even do that, be fully aware of the risks; that might provide you with the motivation you need. Now is a good time to make a few positive changes; do your best to ensure that on one is hurt in the process. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will be able to think more constructively and this will help you to deal with a persistent problem. The prospects are good but you cannot expect success to simply fall into your lap. You will have to try a number of approaches before you find the right one, but it will be worth making the effort.
