Aries March 20 April 18

Between the Sun’smove to accent joint arrangemen­ts, along with the retrograde Mercury already being positioned in that portion of your chart, even seemingly simple matters will become more complicate­d by the day. The solution? Make tentative plans. True, this approach is counter to your character. But it’s the only way to go.

Taurus April 19 May 19

Living with tension in the air is nothing new to you, as a peace- loving Taurus. You prefer to stand back, allow issues to develop and explore options before you say a word. While that’s wise now, be aware those and other issues will peak at the Taurus Full Moon, on 31 October.

Gemini

May 20 June 19

Planning ahead may be a virtue, but as a changeable Gemini, you’ve been known to rethink arrangemen­ts more than once before things are finally settled, and action can be taken. The fact is, with so much in transition, even the simplest of arrangemen­ts must be regarded as a bit of an experiment.

Cancer

June 20 July 21

Change isn’t just likely, the Sun’smove into a new position, and to accent love and life’s pleasures, will bring a welcome, and timely, change of pace. While the obstacles you’re facing won’t vanish, your sense of promise and possibilit­y will improve. Better yet, events will soon show how right those feelings were.

Leo July 22 August 21

Life would be a lot easier if you could simply make a decision, then take action right away. However, because this would influence others, discussion is inevitable. While that might slow the process, it will enable you to make plans once, but ensure you’ve already dealt with everything, and in detail.

Virgo

August 22 September 21

The swift pace of events and lack of solid facts has forced you to base plans on a bizarre combinatio­n of your instincts and pure hope. The fascinatin­g thing about this approach is just how well those seemingly random plans will work out. Enough you might want to take this approach again.

Libra September 22 October 21

Certain individual­s aren’t just manipulati­ve, they seem unable to say or ask for anything in a simple, forthright manner. Aggravatin­g as this is, it’s a trait you share, in the form of your knack for getting others to volunteer to be helpful, when it’s the last thing they had in mind doing.

Scorpio October 22 November 20

Discussing decisions is one thing. But actually coming up with a plan that everybody can live with is another matter, as is increasing­ly clear. Urgent as things seem, take it slowly. Intriguing ideas will continue to arise, and be discussed at length, until the Scorpio New Moon, on 12 November.

Sagittariu­s November 21 December 20

With the retrograde Mercury and the Sun in the most strategic portion of your chart, you’ll be examining what didn’t work in the past. While youmay already have noted these matters, you’ve managed to avoid delving into them. The time has come. It won’t be easy, but it will be hugely rewarding.

Capricorn

December 21 January 19

Ordinarily, planning ahead isn’t just your skill, it’s a strength that you rely on during periods as unsettling as the final half of October. Disruptive as events are, when looking back on events, you’ll recognise them as breakthrou­ghs, although in a completely unexcepted manner. The more flexible your approach, the better.

Aquarius January 20 February 18

Even the idea of letting go of certain longstandi­ng and reassuring habits is unappealin­g. Yet the structure of your own life, and the world around you, is changing. The real trick is resisting the temptation to make a new plan, just to have something organised. The more flexible your thinking, the better.

Pisces

February 19 March 19

The last thing you want to do is upset anybody. However, events have made it clear that the only way you’ll get past one particular­ly tough individual’s huge barrier is by being even tougher, if not offensive. Once you’ve actually connected, you can discuss certain tricky matters with the frankness and open approach that’s necessary.
