JONATHAN CAINER

ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20 WHEN we set out in

search of change, we become a bit like shoppers hunting bargains. We have an idea what we’d like until we find out the price — and then we make a more modest list of aims. While it may be unlikely the very thing we most desire will be on sale with a stunning discount, in just the size and colour we’ve been hoping for, we surely should at least look just to check this before we set off down the road of compromise. You may be surprised by what you discover today. Even if you don’t usually call, you should hear the excellent news in your NEW October prediction. Call 0906 751 5601.

TAURUS THERE are so many Apr 21 — May 21 things we are not supposed to say (or show) to each other. We may like to think of ourselves as uninhibited, but we are bound by inflexible taboos that we are taught, from an early age, never to defy. Thus, we go through life performing a kind of delicate dance, whereby we may make discreet allusion to traits, qualities or facts, yet we must never openly acknowledge a particular truth. It may be hard to discuss a topic today — but a useful understanding may yet be surprisingly easy to

reach. Your in-depth, NEW October forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Dial 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI May 22 — June 22 WHAT would we do if we had no rules, codes and conventions, protocols and precedents? We would have to invent them! We would be in urgent need of boundaries, barriers and benchmarks. We would be floundering in a quagmire of confusion. Someone in your world now is calling a great many assumptions into question. Yet, they don’t seem so able to explain themselves. Don’t let this become a reason to unravel a carefully woven thread of reliable, sensible explanation. I’ve taken a good look at your forecast for October and I have great things to tell you. For inspiration call 0906 751 5603.

CANCER EVEN when you

June 23 — July 23 are wrong, it is usually only because you have been right — but right for the wrong reasons! Cancerians don’t tend to make the same sort of mistakes as the rest of us. Your high ideals and aspirations, your impressive levels of loyalty and dedication are very rarely misplaced. Yet it now seems as if you must think again about an affiliation you HELLO, Mr Cainer, You recently mentioned the polar shift. Someone told me that it is linked to a ‘rogue planet’. he insists Planet X will arrive within the next few years. When we get into arguments, he accuses me of being in denial. Cyndi Dear Cyndi, I am personally in denial about the gorilla that’s trying to eat my left leg, the rip in the magic carpet which flies me to work each day and the vat of liquid cheesecake into which I might plunge at any moment. But there’s a reason to deny these things. Isn’t there? made or a commitment you gave some while ago. Not everything associated with this needs to alter, but it may be time to change one idea. Even if you don’t usually call, you should hear the excellent news in your NEW October prediction. Call 0906 751 5604.

LEO WE ALL like to think we July 24 — Aug 23 know our limits. That’s why, we figure, we won’t make too many mistakes. But might it also be why we don’t seize too many opportunities? Perhaps we look at possibilities and think ‘Oh, I’ll be no good at this’. Or ‘that’s the kind of thing I’ve had problems with in the past’. Each time we draw a line like this, we close the door on a chance to broaden our own sense of identity. You deserve the boost to your confidence that rising to today’s challenge will give you. Your in-depth, NEW October forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Dial 0906 751 5605. VIRGO LET’S begin with a

Aug 24 — Sep 23 technical question: when is the darkest hour? Just before the dawn! Well, that’s one answer. You might also have got points for ‘just before the finest hour’ — it’s much the same. There is always a moment when we begin to fear all is lost and it invariably precedes the moment when we realise, to our relief and delight, that everything is fine after all. Though you may feel doubtful about a situation, or worried lest you don’t have what it takes, a sense of triumph is coming your way

soon. I’ve taken a good look at your forecast for October and I have great things to tell you. For inspiration call 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23 SPORTING teams

competing on home turf are said to have an advantage. Science might be sophisticated, but it has yet to prove whether that potential additional edge of success comes from less time spent travelling to the arena, less stress from packing kit in and out of an unfamiliar locker or a greater number of friendly faces shouting support from the crowd. Though you are keen to see a particular outcome to a process today, you may be just as likely to get that result if you simply relax. Even if you don’t usually call, you should hear the excellent news in your NEW October prediction. Call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO WHAT if the only

Oct 24 — Nov 22 thing that’s wrong with you is a tendency to worry too much about what other people may think is wrong with you? We might ask whether they are to blame for coming up with unfair criticism and casting unjust aspersions. But if we then criticise them for criticising us, don’t we get caught up in an maelstrom of accusation and counter-accusation? Isn’t it better by far to rise above all such petty point-scoring and just nurture a deeper self-belief? This is all you need today. Your in-depth, NEW October forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Dial 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIUS YOU are Nov 23 — Dec 21 neither master nor mistress of your own destiny! Now I don’t mean to contradict the notion that we all have freedom of choice. We just don’t get to decide what each choice will entail. Like passengers on a bus, we may be free to get off, but the bus is the bus, the route is the route and the driver is the driver. You might become head of the transport company, but you will still have to stay on the bus while you travel to the place with that opportunity. Ride patiently today. I’ve taken a good look at your forecast for October and I have great things to tell you. For inspiration call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN IS YOUR Dec 22 — Jan 20 sign’s reputation for dedication debatable? Are those expectations of your diligence undeserved? Have astrologers, over the centuries, created a self-perpetuating myth about how keen, clever and conscientious every Capricorn was born to be? You may suspect so, but then doesn’t your sign also have a slight inclination towards selfdenigration? Today, you get to find out just how good, helpful and rewarding it really is to be born under your very special sector of the sky. Even if you don’t usually call, you should hear the excellent news in your NEW October prediction. Call 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS ANCIENT Jan 21 — Feb 19 mythologies tell of deities who watch over us and, if offered sufficient supplication, support our aspirations by scuppering rivals’ plans. We have to ask if the gods truly engage in such pettiness. Why would they see the needs of humanity as remotely interesting? Yet have you not begun to wonder whether you have offended an immortal? Soon, you may start to wonder instead, what you have done to please them and thus earn such a significant reward. Your in-depth, NEW October forecast could be one of the most rewarding phone calls you ever make. Dial 0906 751 5611.

PISCES IF a situation seems Feb 20 — Mar 20 to make sense today, you are probably looking at it from the wrong angle or missing a piece of information. Or you are making an enormous assumption. And if you are baffled, bewildered, bemused? Then you have reason to feel encouraged, for at least this is a more appropriate response. Situations that are hard for one person to understand are almost invariably hard for others to understand, too. Where there are mysteries, there are opportunities — as you will soon see. I’ve taken a good look at your forecast for October and I have great things to tell you. For inspiration call 0906 751 5612.
