STAR GAZING
Aries
March 20 April 18
Recent discussion seemed to be going in the right direction. However, not only is a series of twists and turns likely, your own ideas about what’s best are bound to change as well. The trick? Take action, but ensure whatever you do is flexile enough it can be easily reorganised.
Taurus
April 19 May 19
After a period of concentration on certain activities you’ve achieved a lot, far more, in fact, than you imagined possible. Now that your ruler Venus has moved to accent how you’ll benefit from those efforts, you’ll begin to see progress. It may not be in the form you expected but still, it’s progress.
Gemini
May 20 June 19
The actual New Moon may have been last Wednesday, but you’re still benefitting from the unexpected insights it triggered. Some regarded puzzling issues involving others, but as many give you a timely fresh perspective on certain inner battles of your own. Reflect on these, quietly and with patience. It will be worth your while.
Cancer
June 20 July 21
Although many worry about the confusion triggered by Mercury’s retrograde cycle, those issues have triggered discussion of matters that have been a real source of concern. Continue, both talking over existing issues and tackling those you’ve been avoiding. What you learn will benefit you in ways as wonderful as they are unexpected.
Leo
July 22 August 21
Last week’s encounters between your ruler the Sun and several of the planetary heavyweights will have forced you to take action on certain matters you’ve been putting off, it not ignoring. Challenging as this was at the time, you’re relieved, so much, you’re wondering what else you can tackle. As it happens, there’s plenty.
Virgo
August 22 September 21
You rarely think of it, but as a painstaking Virgo, you often struggle with the confusion triggered by the retrograde Mercury more than others. This isn’t just because it’s your ruling planet. You also care a lot about things going well, and when they don’t, you often worry, if not take it personally.
Libra
September 22 October 21
For ages you’ve been tiptoeing around potentially upsetting matters. Admittedly these will have to be discussed sooner or later. It’s just that at the moment other, even more pressing, issues require your attention. Allow yourself plenty of time. In certain cases these, too, will prove far more complex than you anticipated.
Scorpio
October 22 November 20
The most challenging element of recent weeks and, in fact, the coming week is that in many cases you must stand back and let events unfold as they must. Obviously this is worrying, because often this won’t be remotely what you’ve planned. Still, your instincts are correctly telling you this is for the best.
Sagittarius November 21 December 20
Good fortune comes in many forms. During this exciting and fast-paced week, you won’t always be able to spot what’s best. That being the case, explore everything that comes your way, but only enough to understand its nature. For now, the big picture matters most. Details can and should wait.
Capricorn
December 21 January 19
Recent decisions seemed solid, at least when you made them. However, with the foundation on which they were based shifting, you may be better off regarding both short term plans and, equally, those that are more farreaching as a bit of an experiment, one that’s subject to frequent and, often, exciting changes.
Aquarius January 20 February 18
Although the ideas planet Mercury began its retrograde cycle in late September, you’re only now encountering the confusion changes have triggered. Tempting as it is to analyse these in detail, instead rethink arrangements, then move on. With so much in transition, there are lots more changes yet to come.
Pisces February 19 March 19
Long ago you realised certain individuals genuinely believe they can do no wrong. You’ve also learnt ways around their ego, a strategy that allows you to discuss their mistakes without actually putting it in those words. At the moment others need your help with this. Offer. They’ll say a grateful yes.
