RUSSELL GRANT

Aries March 21–April 20

It will be frustrating to discover a legal wrangle you are mixed up in is going to take longer to settle than anyone anticipated. A new issue will arise which means things aren’t as cut and dried as you were hoping. This new development will cast a shadow over proceedings and will cause more delay.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

You’re spending too much time worrying about the future and things that may never happen. Once you take a step or two back from what seems to be a huge problem and consider it from all angles you will see how unnecessary your fretting really was. A chance to travel will fall into your lap.

Gemini May 22 –June 21

A housemate’s mood is unpredictable, and it seems like you are on the receiving end of their anger. You can’t understand why they are being so emotional, but one careless word on your part could release another torrent of emotion. Your best move would be to find an excuse to avoid them.

Cancer June 22 –July 23

It will pay to be flexible. Be ready to change plans at a moment’s notice, for a good opportunity will strike when you least expect it. The insight of a close friend will help you notice when things are starting to turn out in your favour. You have a lot to be grateful for.

Leo July 24 – August 23

You’re making good progress in work. What surprises you is how casually your boss and others in charge seem to be taking your success. Any other time they would have praised you for your achievements, and you might wonder what has happened to make them so non-committal.

Virgo Aug 24 – Sept 23

You have some big plans and you’re determined to remain healthy in order to carry these out. Some people might think you’re going a bit too far in your efforts to look after your health. You could well be the one having the last laugh when they end with the latest bug doing the rounds.

Libra Sept 24–Oct 23

You may not agree with the views of a senior colleague but you will show respect appropriate to their position. Once you adopt someone’s suggestions into your work you will be able to revise these later to suit your own situation. Showing a willingness to listen will put you in their good books.

Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 22

Your recent hardworking efforts are starting to show up another colleague’s negligence. They won’t be very happy about this. You’re making progress in your work, but it will take an extreme effort to curb your impatience to avoid offending others around you.

Sagittarius Nov 23 – Dec 21

One way to make your position at work more secure will be to keep your plans secret from a sneaky rival. You face a lot of competition on the career front. Your boss may have appreciated your recent hard-working efforts, but you are up against a formidable competitor.

Capricorn Dec 22 –Jan 20

Business talks involve plans for the future. You may not get an immediate answer, but if you strive to create a good impression on those making the decisions, you should get the desired outcome. It just may take a bit longer to achieve this than you had expected.

Aquarius Jan 21 – Feb 19

All your problems will not vanish overnight, but you will feel a good deal more relaxed and rested today. An early morning phone call will ease your concern over a family matter. A colleague will volunteer to take over some of your responsibilities and this will take a load off your mind.

Pisces Feb 20 – Mar 20

You’re tired of social demands, even if a friend cannot understand why you feel this way. You aren’t even keen to visit someone who is expecting you. You will benefit most through activities carried out in the comfort of your own home where you don’t have to worry about what other people think.
