There’s no-one to match you for compassion, hard work, efficiency and a genuine desire to make the world a better place. But you really don’t like it when anyone disagrees with you. Your way is obviously the best way, after all. It probably is, but that doesn’t mean other people don’t have a contributi­on to make. Learning to handle and accept other people has been one of your greatest life lessons. Fortunatel­y, you have wonderfull­y intuitive abilities, allowing you to tune in to the energies around you and accept help. But your life has been complex and the betrayals on your path have forced you to rely on yourself. However, your later years have taught you the value of forgivenes­s. Now your greatest joy comes from making a difference in other people’s lives. Next year is for you, though.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 22 - Dec 21

Prosperity is your word for the week. Communicat­ion is back on track, and your money planet is charging forth with gusto. On Wednesday, more planets join in, making abundance your new thing. Of course, you may have to work overtime for a while. But, whatever it takes, do it with an enormous grin. Your life is already improving. Watch the temper though.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

Don’t look back. All those mistakes have merged beautifull­y with the successes to make up the rich tapestry of your life. Now’s the time to turn it all around. You’re being called upon to change course — and to make some magic. Write down what you want, but not how to get it — the universe works in its own way. There’ll be some unexpected moments but the outcome will be smiles for all.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20 - Feb 18

Your darkest moments have come and gone. For this year, anyway. So even if you’re still in the ditch, know that the light is out there somewhere, and it’s looking for you. Start climbing upwards; making a point of helping anyone you can. The way to your happiness is through service and inner growth. Sounds tedious. It isn’t. The good stuff will be arriving in stages — one bite at a time. You’ll figure out what works as you go.

PISCES

Feb 19 - Mar 20

Your loved ones could be asking for some space. This is something you completely understand so don’t you dare take it personally. Besides, you can use the extra time to sort out your own needs. And with your money-making powers at their peak, the odd celebratio­n would not be out of place. And then, there’s that need to make some contributi­on. There’s work to be done.

ARIES

Mar 21 - April 19

With so many other distractio­ns, money seems have to lost its power to control you. Which is why you’re now able to truly tune in to the stirrings around you. New ideas are aimed at you, and interest is focused on your uniquely creative abilities. When it comes to personal power, you’re just beginning to discover what it really means. You’re loving what you see.

TAURUS

Apr 20 - May 20

It’s a busy time. Old projects can now be taken off the shelf and re-dusted. Your family will also need extra attention. Don’t be put off by the odd argument. This is simply a reworking of old issues that have yet to be resolved. Think carefully before you hurl insults though. This is a confusing time for everyone. Smile and observe until you figure it all out. The career is moving slowly, giving you time to get your life together first.

GEMINI

May 21 - June 20

Obstacles melt away in the heat of enthusiasm and determinat­ion. So if an impressive career is what you’re after, get to it. In fact, many of you could be changing jobs or careers before the year is out. Start planning now. Power struggles are inevitable in the short term, but the truly powerful will probably end up supporting you, as long as you keep your cool. Plus, romance is in the air.

CANCER

June 21 - Jul 22

Could be you’re involved with someone older than you. Which is perfectly fine. You’re simply needing some grown-up support for a while. It doesn’t have to become sexual either. Just allow yourself to be taken care of while you need it. Meanwhile, you’re giving out such positive vibes at work, the offers are coming in thick and fast. Don’t take on too much at once.

LEO

Jul 23 - Aug 22

You’re in one of those moods that says, “If you loved me, you’d know what I need.” Wrong! This is what’s known as setting yourself up for disappoint­ment.

No-one knows your needs unless you tell them, not even you. Although you may not have figured this out yet, your needs are changing all the time. In short, it would take a magician to keep up with your increasing demands. And they’re currently in short supply.

VIRGO

Aug 23 - Sep 22

It’s back to your charming extraordin­ary, immaculate self. Hold back on the excesses if you can. There’s no need to iron the coat hangers before letting anyone in the door. Other people’s standards are far less demanding than yours. Mostly they just want to have a good time. Try going with their flow for a change. You are not the one responsibl­e for everyone else’s happiness.

LIBRA

Sep 23 - Oct 22

Wounds are healing and recuperati­on has begun. In fact, you’re starting to feel really good — almost as if you’ve been massaged back to life after a long illness. This is marvellous, but it takes time to fully complete its work. Look around you — delays and pressures are being lifted as you complete your work in record time. How about some travel with a lover? Or a fabulous new project?

SCORPIO

Oct 23 - Nov 21

Don’t be afraid to make some adjustment­s at work. You’ll soon see how much of a difference your improved plan of action will make. Keep a close check on your ideas though. There are some persuasive people around — keen to change your mind. If you decide to bend, make sure you’re doing so for the right reasons. And while you’re at it, take an extra handful of vitamins. You’ll need all the sustenance you can get.
