Sun sign: Aquarius Moon sign: Sagittarius Rising sign: Aquarius
People with lots of Aquarian energy are usually way ahead of their time and constantly struggle to fit in. Most will find careers and lifestyles in which intimacy is less of a requirement. You make a wonderful, interesting friend, but close relationships are difficult. Often, you’ll spend whole days alone, learning fascinating things about the world. You’re always keen to learn and experience. You’ve just come to the end of a difficult cycle. You’ve been wondering whether your career choices have been good and whether your relationships are healthy. You’ve made some bad financial choices and your confidence is low. You’re wondering whether to throw it all in and make a new start. Don’t rush until you’ve had a chance to plan. Your need for excitement can lead to impulsive decisions. The planets are looking for a new adventure, but this time you’ll need to trust yourself to make good choices.
SCORPIO
Oct 23 - Nov 21
Scorpio energies are everywhere, and for a change you’re feeling at home in your world. There’s even extra power to help you cope with large doses of fun, fewer responsibilities and plenty of passion. Just one potential glitch: the energies of vengeance and irrational selfrighteousness are testing you. Don’t fall for their tricks. Tomorrow’s Scorpio new moon will send a plan. Pay attention. Everything is possible now.
SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 - Dec 21
Never really thought of yourself as an artist, have you? Enough of that. The planets want you to discover your creative side and to hold it up for all to see. Oh, and don’t let those tedious financial delays distract you from your course. The money’s coming. It’s just taking a little longer than it was supposed to. Your creative spirit, on the other hand, is ready and waiting. Let tomorrow’s new moon show you the way.
CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 19
Letting go of old memories, old outfits and ancient thinking can ease you into greater comfort. But it’s confusing too. You’re probably wondering who you are right now and why you’re feeling so out of place. Tomorrow’s new moon brings an affectionate set of distractions, meaning this is not the time for that stubborn independent thing you do. Accept all the help you can get. Be grateful.
AQUARIUS Jan 20 - Feb 18
It’s your turn to take the initiative, in love and work. But beware of loopholes. Details have never been your strong point and this time they could become your obstacle course. Also, be on the lookout for someone who shares your bizarre interests. Tomorrow’s new moon could be sending you the love of your life. Or the greatest friend you ever made. Treat with care. Oh, and wait for Tuesday before signing anything radical.
PISCES
Feb 19 - Mar 20
Your desire to do the right thing will eventually put you ahead of the pack. But not yet. First, there’s a little cosmic test, the one that’s leading you down the path of wickedness and quick fixes. Careful. You know how gullible you can be, especially when the holiday spirit has you by the heartstrings. So smile through the dramas and when in doubt, look up. Tomorrow’s new moon has an array of options. Take your time.
ARIES
Mar 21 - April 19
Wondering whether your lover’s affections have moved elsewhere? Look again. It could be that you’re the one who’s emotionally blocked. Examine your fears and don’t be too proud to discuss them. At work, your public profile is gaining ground and, with directed efforts, your career will soon advance at an astonishing pace. One thing. Find time to relax. Burnout is no fun. Check tomorrow’s gorgeous new moon for other ways to get the job done.
TAURUS
Apr 20 - May 21
Things are happening now. Take your pick and make a wish list. Travel, creative projects, love, spiritual discoveries, money — all these and more are up for grabs. Your job is to handle your options with style and grace, and to spend at least one week pleasing only yourself. One more thing. You’ll have to lift your butt off that couch first. Wait for tomorrow’s fabulous new moon to give you the strength.
GEMINI
May 22 - Jun 20
No matter what anyone says, it’s your life. So if you need to break away from commitments made purely to please others, now’s the time. You can find other ways to make them proud. Meanwhile, the truth about your finances could be hiding behind an array of smokescreens. Get the facts before allowing yourself to be talked into any radical changes. Tomorrow’s new moon could simply be asking for new ways to put yourself first.
CANCER
June 21 - Jul 22
Think brilliant ideas and magical plans. This is your week for exploring the senses and discovering what each has to offer. While waiting for the planets to kick in, spare a thought for a desultory love life. Ask yourself what you can do to make your wishes come true. Or have you forgotten that it’s your job to make yourself happy? Tomorrow’s generous new moon will help with the confusing bits.
LEO
Jul 23 - Aug 22
There’s a new moon tomorrow, calling you back to a love life that needs attention. This is where the truth can emerge. Has your partner been chosen out of a need to impress relatives? Are you battling to find a middle path between career and love? Do you feel undeserving of anyone’s affection? Might as well deal with these issues now. The planets are standing by with alternatives. Decide what you want and have it.
VIRGO
Aug 23 - Sep 22
Change always rocks your lovingly glued-together boat, which is strange, because you’re supposed to be floating downstream, ready for anything. OK, so all your security has gone overboard, leaving you with an unexpectedly impressive supply of strength and courage to get you through. Meanwhile, tomorrow’s new moon has exciting news, so sit back and enjoy the ride.
LIBRA
Sep 23 - Oct 22

They’ve never been more powerful.
