Aries March 20 April 19
You may not agree with certain plans. Still, at the moment you owe it to yourself to at least listen to the suggestions of others. One particular individual has some good ideas. They may not work in the situation in question, but to your surprise and delight might be perfect for something else entirely.
Taurus April 20 May 20
Tempting as it is to try to restore certain once-cherished arrangements to the way they were recently it’s not only impossible, you’re better off exploring your options. This may seem a defeat now. But you’ll soon realise just how much this way of doing things offers for the present and for the future.
Gemini May 21 June 20
If your instincts are telling you that during this exciting but unsettling period even the simplest of plans won’t last long they’re right. Still, not everybody will recognise that and in fact certain individuals could insist on making detailed plans. Let them do exactly that while you quietly busy yourself elsewhere.
Cancer June 21 July 21
Few things are more difficult than witnessing somebody you care about struggling unnecessarily with a challenging situation. But there’s more to it than that. These are customdesigned to help them define and deal with certain issues. The sooner they tackle these the more swiftly they’ll become a part of the past.
Leo July 22 August 22
As a Leo you’re proud of the fact you do what you say. So when you make a promise you’ll do all you can to keep it. Yet in several situations circumstances are causing serious problems. Don’t try to deal with this on your own. Discuss the situation with the individual in question. They’ll understand. Virgo August 23 September 22
Ordinarily during periods of extensive change such as this is you’ll learn what you can about the actual circumstances involved, then make a plan. But with the actual situations in question shifting regularly you’re better off viewing arrangements as a bit of an experiment and ensure what you organise is flexible.
Libra September 23 October 22
In the past you’ve been annoyed by and complained mightily about those who make last-minute changes in plans apparently without any regard to the disruption they’re causing others. Yet now with things moving swiftly you’re in the same position although the odds are good you’ll explain what happened as soon as possible.
Scorpio October 23 November 21
Somebody seems to have charmed you. Yet at the same time you’re conscious there’s another side to their nature, one that can be both difficult and occasionally selfish. Still, if you want to get to know them better at least be aware that they have their best interests at heart, not yours.
Sagittarius November 22 December 20
Long ago you realised there’s little point in arguing with those who’ve no interest in new ideas or plans. Yet your natural enthusiasm is such that you can’t resist suggesting things that might intrigue them. Or so you hope. While it’s possible they might be enthusiastic the odds are slim that will happen.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
It’s not that you’re a control freak, but rather you see little point in leaving things to chance when with some planning you can try to organise them. However with Mercury and, on the 8th Jupiter moving into the most strategic portion of your chart you’ll need to be cautious about any such manoeuvres.
Aquarius January 20 February 17
There’s a fine line between loyalty to those individuals who matter and even those ideas you believe in and certain longstanding arrangements. These may be familiar, but that’s no reason to battle the kind of changes that aren’t just timely but could lead to growth and exciting new ideas. At least explore what’s arisen.
Pisces February 18 March 19
Few things are more of a joy than looking back on a challenging situation that’s been put to rest and as the result of thought, persistence and a bit of creativity. Enjoy this especially because there are many times when you’d have preferred to give in. You didn’t and now you can celebrate.
