YOUR STARS

- By Tanya Obreza

Your Year Ahead- Aries:

You are probably still pinching yourself, not quite certain whether what happened in recent months was a pleasant dream, a nightmare, or some accident of fate. Confronted by suspense or suspicion, you now find yourself forced to explore new dimensions of your talents, affections and inner truths. Out of this intense transforma­tion, you emerge in many ways reborn. There are so many surprises in store Aries, starting from this birthday month.

Aries (March 21 - April 20)

Your tenacity and hard work finally find an audience – so take advantage of any good press. But fame of any kind is usually fleeting. Make sure you record all praise so that, in the future, you can hold others to their word. If they want what you have so badly, get it in writing.

Taurus (April 21 - May 20)

It’s a week when many Taureans are freed from constraint­s that should have found a natural conclusion some time ago. Don’t blame yourself. You didn’t fail. It just didn’t work out. You know what they say – as old doors close, new ones open. Make the most of new opportunit­ies.

Gemini (May 21 to June 21)

This week a backward moving Mercury brings the full spectrum of emotions, and perhaps some conflict. But you’re not entirely innocent in all this. You can’t treat love as a battlegrou­nd and expect peace. Take care that past struggles don’t spill into present relationsh­ips. Don’t even try looking to the future – live for today.

Cancer (June 22 - July 22)

For the most part, you’re in the mood to go with the flow, which is easy when most areas of your life are running smoothly (as they should be now). A cosmic union creates balance in your emotional life, which radiates and creates peace within your family, career or personal sectors.

Leo (July 23 - August 23)

Telling it as it is just might help you get what you want this week. You could also be worried that an opportunit­y is passing you by. Don’t worry; a seed has been planted. Hard work and determinat­ion will do the rest. From tiny acorns do mighty oaks trees grow.

Virgo (August 24 - September 22)

There may be moments this week, when you just have to detach, and leave others to their own devices. No one is willing to listen – so any advice will just fall on deaf ears. Remember the saying: when the student is ready, the teacher appears. People will learn in their own time and way.

Libra (September 23 - October 23)

Retrograde Mercury still brings disruption. A living situation may become chaotic, particular with relatives. Be mindful of electronic­s around the house or office. Disconnect everything if you’re leaving for a few days. Turn off the TV and computer and just get out of the house. Fresh air will do wonders for your mood.

Scorpio (October 24 - November 22)

Unbridled is how to best describe this week. With passions reeling between agony and ecstasy, you’re on something of an emotional bender. And this can only mean that you’re ready to offload a fair few of those inhibition­s. The outcome promises to be of a spectacula­r kind.

Sagittariu­s (November 23 - December 21)

No one can accuse you of not pulling your weight. You’ve been working long and hard, so stay primed for special surprises. Perhaps a pay increase, or a small Lotto win? Many Sagittaria­ns also seem to be back in touch with every friend on the planet. Fun follows.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 20)

Putting your grand plans into motion could prove to be tricky this week. While you’re keyed up about forging ahead, other people’s roles and certain details need to be considered. Pushing your agenda before it’s primed to go isn’t the best recipe for success. Make a move after the 15th, when Mercury once again moves forward.

Aquarius (January 21 - February 18)

If someone’s trying to swindle you, fool them. Competitor­s might feel the need to bring you down. Don’t let them. Even though they’re being underhande­d – you won’t miss a trick. Once the Aquarian mind locks in its co-ordinates, your intuitive aim never misses the target. Opponents should take cover.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

Figure out who’s best at what, and drum up a solid sense of teamwork. Should love or benefits come your way, accept with gratitude. In the same spirit, give openly and rewards will return when you most need them. Some also experience a gentle stroll down memory lane.
