Britain’s celebrity astrologer
Celebrating on this day: actress Whoopi Goldberg, 63, and actor Gerard Butler, 49. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20
Continually putting your needs aside for the sake of a partner is creating resentment. Instead of cancelling an outing to make this loved one happy, go anyway. There’s no reason you should stay home to appease their irrational fears.
Taurus Apr 21 – May 21
You are sensible about finances; don’t put the fruits of your labour at risk. Whether someone asks you to make an investment or make them a loan, you should turn them away.You shouldn’t feel pressured into parting with your hard-earned money.
Gemini May 22 – June 21
Be prepared to put pleasure to one side while you attend to a professional responsibility or personal commitment. Someone is counting on you for a ride, paperwork or support. Breaking your promise will drive a wedge between you.
Cancer June 22 – July 23
Insecurity will make things difficult between you and your loved one. Stop questioning their loyalty and start spending time on activities that you love. A show of independence will capture their interest. You can stand on your own two feet.
Leo July 24 – Aug 23
Flattery will get you nowhere. If someone asks for your honest opinion, limit your remarks to one or two constructive criticisms. Pretending to like something that really offends you will undermine your reputation for being intelligent and tasteful.
Virgo Aug 24 – Sep 23
Snobbish behaviour will drive opportunity away. Someone who isn’t well dressed could give you a job. A person who doesn’t appear to be well educated has helpful information. Those with different beliefs may give the compassion you crave.
Libra Sep 24 – Oct 23
Hiding away from the world will make a problem worse. By reaching out to a sympathetic friend, you’ll be able to overcome a setback that has been weighing on your heart. There is a solution to your dilemma but you’re too close to see it.
Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 22
Any feelings of loneliness and frustration are temporary. By pushing yourself to go out and socialise, you’ll feel better. Contrary to what you think, there are a lot of people who share your interests. Join an online discussion group or local club.
Sagittarius Nov 23 – Dec 21
When someone challenges your assumptions, don’t dig in your heels. Defend your position and be open to listening to theirs. You may hear some points you hadn’t considered. Keep the dialogue flowing instead of maintaining a stubborn silence.
Capricorn Dec 22 – Jan 20
Inconsiderate behaviour will come back to haunt you. You may not feel the need to clean up after yourself but others find your mess unpleasant. At some point, you’ll need help from them and they won’t be there. Remember you are part of a team.
Aquarius Jan 21 – Feb 19
Trying to convert people to your point of view will fall flat. Instead of discussing your beliefs, illustrate them through your behaviour. Those impressed by your actions will inquire about the philosophy behind them.You can then talk further.
Pisces Feb 20 – Mar 20
Resist the desire to overindulge in sensual pleasures. Eating lots of rich food, drinking alcohol or spending lots of money will not bring you peace. If you want to soothe yourself, opt for simple pleasures like reading, music or communing with nature.
