Your Stars
RAJA PENTI November 24 1959, Heidelberg, 16h00 Sun sign: Sagittarius Moon sign: Virgo Rising sign: Aries
What a handful you must be. You’re wildly adventurous , but only if you’re in control of the details. If you’re managing other people’s money, make sure you know what you’re doing — or you’ll be blamed for the problems. Mostly, though, you’re comfortable with authority, and quite capable of holding your own in a crisis. Your career has always been a source of confusion, as your restlessness stops you trying for the top jobs. Now that you’re older, you have a better idea of what you want. And, most of all, you want to be completely in charge of your own life. Which is fine — as soon as you accept that not everyone sees things the way you do. You may have to leave a few people behind on your way to the top. Or you may simply need to adjust your plans. Take your time. Changes happen slowly over the next two years. And not all of it is up to you.
PISCES Feb 19 - Mar 20
All of a sudden you’re feeling happier with yourself. Those haunting dreams have begun to fade, and your bloom has returned with all the confidence that goes with it. If you’re after a new love interest, now’s the time to pounce. It won’t be easy to resist you. Take your time. Life is starting to make real sense at last. Pause to enjoy it.
ARIES Mar 21 - April 19
You’ve stopped arguing, but that doesn’t mean the issues have been resolved. Careful. Work on them now, or they’ll be back before next week. And stop saying it’s the “principle of the thing”. The real principle of the thing is that your ego is refusing to back down and negotiate. Who cares if you were right? Wouldn’t you rather be loved? The career is taking you somewhere new. You’ll get all the validation you need at the office.
TAURUS Apr 20 - May 20
People with real power are suddenly more appealing. That’s okay. In fact, the likelihood of you ending up with someone “helpful” is fairly good now. Don’t feel bad. As long as there is equal exchange of energy and goodwill, it doesn’t really matter what form that energy takes. Even so, you might want to think about finding other ways to feel more secure… like learning to trust yourself.
GEMINI May 21 - June 20
This is your week to budget — to pay off debts and stabilise your output. Yawn? Sure. But not even you can keep pouring money down that hole without making sure of new supplies. So tune in. Being a grown-up is not so terrible. There are really fun bits once you get the hang of it. If you have to leave a few people behind, that’s the price of admission.
CANCER June 21 - Jul 22
Relationships are slowly reverting back to type. So if you want some changes, now’s your chance. The alternative is to resign yourself to another 100 years of “that’s the way it is”. The difference between happiness and resignation is courage. And discipline. Neither word fills your heart with glee. But look again. There’s power in those veins. Let it out to play and you may discover a few talents you didn’t know you had.
LEO Jul 23 - Aug 22
You’re sensitive enough to have tuned into the forces of change in your life and your love life. The question is, how are you planning to respond? For a start, you’ll need to promise yourself a lot more fun. Then, attention to finances now will save you anxiety later on. Last, it’s time to review the way you relate to others. Huge expectations must go. Learn to love them just the way they are.
VIRGO Aug 23 - Sep 22
When was the last time you slept through the night? Or went to the movies. Sure, the demands of career are intense. You’re being asked to take charge of areas you’re not sure of. Time to ask for help. Besides, your love planet is wanting to play. You’re not going to miss the chance to be the one on the white horse, are you? Not when you have so much to offer.
LIBRA Sep 23 - Oct 22
Feeling unappreciated? Abused? Speak up. Most of the planets are working for you now. The few that aren’t must be handled with care or debilitating depression will result. For your own sake, it’s time to take back control of your life. Do whatever you can to get money, health and emotions back in order. And then trust in the universe for the rest. You’re never as alone as you think.
SCORPIO Oct 23 - Nov 21
Thinking of making a commitment at last?
Don’t hold back. There’s love and money in the air and you won’t want to miss either. Work’s going well too, with your reputation for reliability enhancing your prospects. You may be offered a wonderful investment opportunity. Grab it. Your vitality and confidence are peaking. Trust your inner voice and act. Your success energies are alive.
SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 - Dec 21
Job pressures are getting your attention. You’ll have to rustle up one of the miracles you’re so good at. When you’ve done that, how about turning your attention to a tottering love life? Or to a family determined to cause enough trouble to force you to act. Stay calm. This is your life. You’re allowed to make mistakes as long as you know that you can change the plan any time you like.
CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20
Nothing much happening at work this week, which leaves space for all the other things in your life. The trouble is you’ve been so wrapped up in your “must dos”, that you’ve forgotten about the “would like to dos”. Wrack your brains. There was a time when you had a life. Make use of this week to create a new one. Or even an old one. But a life.
AQUARIUS
Jan 20 - Feb 18
Love planets are sending you good vibes. And if you meet someone now, this could easily be the real thing. The only snag is that your head is not in the right place to be receptive. Ancient personal dramas are still holding you back, warning you not to trust. In which case, best thing to do is take a wild leap of faith — and see. Not so with money though. Handle that with care. Or get someone else to do it for you.
