Your daily stars

SCORPIO

24 OCT - 22 NOV

Resist the urge to take yourself too seriously. The Sun, Mercury and then the Moon are moving through your sign. So do your best to communicate with extra compassion and creativity.

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV - 21 DEC

Your boredom threshold is set on low and you don’t have the patience to put up with tedious people or long explanations. So strive to extricate yourself from such situations in a tactful way.

CAPRICORN 22 DEC - 20 JAN

Are you incredibly focused on a personal project or just plain obsessed? By all means work hard on a current interest, Capricorn, but don’t neglect your nearest and dearest in the process.

AQUARIUS

21 JAN - 19 FEB

You could feel restless or temperamental today, Aquarius. Boredom is a big no- no. So make sure you immerse yourself in exciting activities that keep you busy, occupied and out of trouble.

PISCES

20 FEB - 20 MAR

You’re in the mood to talk and share, but is anybody listening? Those around you are preoccupied with their own issues. So have fun pursuing individual projects that pique your curiosity.

ARIES

21 MAR - 20 APR

A loved one or colleague may criticise your performance – or your habits – but try not to be offended. Your motto for the day? Maintain your Ram equilibrium, keep calm and carry on!

TAURUS

21 APR - 21 MAY

Be emotionally honest with yourself. Feeling guilty about something you did in the past won’t help the current situation. Let bygones be bygones, learn from your mistakes and move on.

GEMINI

22 MAY - 21 JUN

It’s up to talkative Twins to lighten up proceedings, as many people will be very intense or grumpy today. Don’t trample over sensitive feelings though. Take the time to really listen to others.

CANCER

22 JUN - 23 JUL

Personal and work relationships won’t be smooth sailing today, as the planets stir up hidden passions and volatile emotions. Clever Crabs will breathe deeply, calm down and compromise!

LEO

24 JUL - 23 AUG

Expect intense encounters with others today, Cats. Be patient and don’t jump to hasty conclusions. If you pass on unsubstantiated hot gossip, you could find yourself out in the cold.

VIRGO

24 AUG - 23 SEP

There could be complications with a moody child, teenager or close friend as they take something you say the wrong way. So strive to be extra diplomatic, and choose your words wisely.

LIBRA

24 SEP - 23 OCT

Don’t depend too much on the help of others, as they are preoccupied with their own issues. Learn to be more self-reliant, Libra! It’s a good time to spruce up your home office or domestic space.

YOUR DAY: Expect some intense emotional connections today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: You have a natural ability to influence others so make sure you do so in positive ways. In the next 12 months try to be more flexible – mentally and physically.
