HOROSCOPE

CAPRICORN

Dec 22-Jan 19 There is more than meets the eye. An opportunity may seem tempting, but do a little research to find out what you are getting yourself into. Accept that others may not share your opinions.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20-Feb 18 Listen to your inner guidance as you go along. Your perceptions are so in tune that you might make it through important talks with relative ease. You can get by on your charms, but always uphold your standards of integrity.

PISCES

Feb 19-Mar 20 You will rise to the occasion. Try not to worry about obstacles or problems in your way, as they won’t be anything that you aren’t capable of handling. Friends often rely on you for stability and guidance.

ARIES

Mar 21-Apr 19 Right is right and wrong is wrong. Act according to your moral compass and don’t judge those who may be acting from ignorance. A physical attraction may temporarily blind you to differences that could soon arise.

TAURUS

Apr 20-May 20 To each their own. Keep in mind that while everything is going your way, someone else may be struggling, so try to be compassionate. Now may not be the best time to seek commitments.

GEMINI

May 21-June 20 Accomplishments do not happen on their own. Sitting on the dock of the bay may pass the time, but it won’t get you any closer to your career goals. Try to be more productive this week.

CANCER

June 21-July 22 The street runs both ways. Don’t expect someone’s help or co-operation to be entirely free. You’ll eventually need to repay the favour – energy must always stay in balance for a relationship to be successful. If you want progress, work at it.

LEO

July 23-Aug 22 Turn the odds in your favour. An important decision won’t be such a gamble if you gather as much data as you can on the subject first. Ask around if you are unsure which way the wind blows.

VIRGO

Aug 23-Sept 22 Be the master of your own affairs. No one is going to oversee your actions to make sure you do what is best, so use your good judgment. Stick to plain facts; colouring the truth is unlikely to go over well.

LIBRA

Sept 23-Oct 22 Read the fine print. Blindly accepting someone’s proposal without going over the details first could end up being quite costly. Don’t sacrifice your boundaries or self-care simply to get along with others.

SCORPIO

Oct 23-Nov 21 Get some bang for your buck. Tightening your budget and making every penny count could help provide a little extra cash over time. Be as helpful as you can with ideas and time, but avoid being too extravagant.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 22-Dec 21 Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. Your hard work should eventually pay dividends, but avoid spending what you do not yet have. Be realistic about what you are capable of.

If today is your birthday:

Keeping in touch with friends and engaging in social activities where you can meet new ones could be a priority during the upcoming week or two, but by the end of the month your attention could shift. You could be more trusting than usual and might have a tendency to make snap decisions, so avoid high-pressure salespeople. Wait until August to sign contracts or put business ideas into motion, as that’s when your common sense and perceptiveness are at a peak. That will also a good time to accept opportunities or offers, since whatever comes to you should improve your future. Get good input from advisers and put your plans into motion if your ambitions shoot upwards in September, when you will likely burn the candle at the both ends to realise your dreams and accomplish whatever you set out to do.
