STAR GAZING
Aries March 20 April 18
The link between your ruler Mars and Venus, the planet that accents alliances of every variety, makes it clear you’re in a cycle that’s about teamwork. The problem? You often prefer to undertake plans solo, then get others involved. Now the reverse is likely. If so, go with it. You’ll be glad you did.
Taurus April 19 May 19
For some weeks you’ve been aware that either certain longstanding arrangements would need to change or you’ll need to back out. While, obviously, you don’t want to threaten others, talk things over. Clearly explain the circumstances you’re facing. They’ll be surprisingly helpful, if not actually cooperative. That discussion will be the turning point.
Gemini May 20 June 19
Every once in a while, events or even minor disagreements force you to recognise how unimaginative certain individuals are. In fact, their inability to understand how the plans you’re currently discussing can turn into the arrangements they have in mind is a real problem. The solution? The less you say, the better.
Cancer June 20 July 21
It’s worth being aware that in the run up to Wednesday’s Full Moon, you and others are likely to be on edge. While, on one hand, you’ll be especially aware of certain issues, on the other, you could worry more than is necessary or, in fact, wise. For the moment, wait and watch.
Leo July 22 August 21
When you look back on this week, you’ll wonder why you were so stubborn about exploring new ideas or even minor changes. That’s the irony of being a Leo. While, at times, you thrive on excitement, you want to think about, if not get accustomed, to the twists and turns coming your way.
Virgo August 22 September 21
As a Virgo, you often feel that when others are struggling or even undermining achieving their goals or objectives, it’s your duty to give them a hand. By that is meant, you’ll ask how they’re doing and, once they’ve answered, you’ll make suggestions. Be cautious. While sometimes this is welcome, just as often, they aren’t.
Libra September 22 October 21
Although you and the rest of the world are familiar with the period during which the ideas planet Mercury is retrograde, which it was recently, your ruler Venus also was moving backwards in the heavens. This ended on 29 January. It’s been complicated. Be patient. Untangling the confusion will take a while.
Scorpio October 22 November 20
Recently you raised certain matters you’ve long known would need to be discussed. To your surprise, and relief, others weren’t just ready to talk things over, they were well informed. Take advantage of this opportunity to mention, and raise if not resolve, other issues that have also been on your mind.
Sagittarius November 21 December 20
Although everybody is influenced by the heightened feelings triggered by the Full Moon, this one accents your own emotional ups and downs. That means you could say more than you intended to or, in fact, is wise. The secret? Raise and discuss the issues in question while you can without unnecessary dramas.
Capricorn December 21 January 19
As a Capricorn, loyalty isn’t just important. It’s something you expect from others and give in return, no matter what. Now, however, you’re facing a range of issues as challenging in practical terms as they are confusing. The secret? Teamwork. Talk things over with others, point by point. It will eliminate any confusion.
Aquarius January 20 February 18
Recently you’ve managed to sidestep certain persistent issues, to the extent it’s almost seemed they’ve been resolved. But, as you’re about to discover, they haven’t. In fact, the current Full Moon is likely to bring them to a head. While unsettling, this offers an opportunity for timely, and frank, discussions.
Pisces February 19 March 19
While somebody close to you has their charms, they also could be regarded as a champion complainer. While, in the past, you took their words seriously, and tried to help, you’ve finally learned that they thrive on having things to moan about. Eliminate these, and they’ll find something else.
