STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 18
In early January, your ruler Mars moved into the part of your chart that accents money and life’s obligations. Since then, you’ve faced one practical issue or commitment after another. While it’s been tough and, often, dull you’ve achieved wonders. Still, you’ll be relieved that, next week, it moves into restless, inquisitive Gemini.
Taurus April 19 May 19
Only days ago, you swore you’d never raise certain troublesome issues, mostly because it seems there’s no solution. Since then, however, welcome if unexpected facts have surfaced. While these don’t yet make sense, explore them. The more you learn, the more confident you’ll be about taking things to the next stage.
Gemini May 20 June 19
Somebody seems to think that you have solutions for recent unsettling issues and disruptive events. It’s true, you probably do. Bu that doesn’t mean it’s wise to discuss these with others. While some will use your ideas wisely, as many will be careless, then blame you when things go wrong.
Cancer June 20 July 21
True, you’re superb at spotting others’ ups and downs, and so are able to ignore and, if necessary, forgive them for being grumpy or, at times, unkind. However, at the moment, you’re struggling with your own ups and downs, so are unusually sensitive. The solution? Discreetly avoid those who’re often so tricky.
Leo July 22 August 21
Nobody is a generous as a Leo. While this applies to those closest, you’ve also been responsible for magical ideas, offers or changes in the lives of others. The irony is, you often brush off their thanks, as if your efforts meant nothing. On the contrary, on occasion your efforts changed their lives.
Virgo August 22 September 21
Speaking your mind is about the facts. However, at the moment the emphasis is on speaking from the heart. Not only can the actual situations involved change, so can your own feelings about certain of these matters. For you, as a precise Virgo, that can be worrying. Actually, it’s part of being human.
Libra September 22 October 21
Recently, when you’ve discussed tricky issues, you’ve managed to sidestep elements you knew would genuinely upset certain individuals. While that made sense at the time, the situations in question are now pressing. Raise and discuss these, as soon as possible. And, equally, don’t hold back. The more forthright you are, the better.
Scorpio October 22 November 20
Only days ago, you’d have said you’ll never alter certain elements of your life. You worked hard to achieve them, and would regard changes as a compromise. However, the changes in question are actually a breakthrough, although they might not seem that way. Still, try being flexible. You’ll be glad you did.
Sagittarius November 21 December 20
The average Sagittarius hates being told what to do. However, when others are enthusiastic about activities or new ideas, you’ll often plunge in, and without asking many questions. Not only is that likely to happen now, what you do, learn and discover could light up your life in wonderful and unexpected ways.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
Most people are thrilled when difficult situations resolve themselves, which seems to have been the case recently. However, as a cautious if not actually suspicious Capricorn, you can regard such good fortune as worrying. It’s a familiar habit, but one you can change, beginning now. How? Alter your perspective. That’s all it takes.
Aquarius January 20 February 18
Long ago you learnt that having the final say in an argument doesn’t mean you’ve won. Because of that, you’ll often encourage others to air their views, however provocative, first. Only once they have, will you address the situation in question. At the moment this isn’t just wise, it’s your only choice.
Pisces February 19 March 19
You and others are facing ups and downs. However, they’ll ride out these dramas while you’re struggling. The fact is, those around you don’t care as much about their impact on those closest or the outcome. They just want to make decisions, then move on. It might be an approach worth considering.
