OSCAR CAINER

Hi Oscar, The late great astrologer Patric Walker told me that he wouldn’t sign a new contract when Mercury was ‘retrograde’. As a football fan I wonder how it will affect all the new signings in the Premier League? Kelvin Hi Kelvin, It’s true that while Mercury is in retrograde motion, mistakes are harder to spot, loopholes are more likely to go unnoticed and clauses unchallenged.

But, given the nature of football, what likelihood is there that any of these contracts will be honoured to full term in the first place? Expect plenty of renegotiations… ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20 ‘REVENGE is a dish best

served cold’ is misinformation. It’s actually a dish best not served at all. Whenever it is, who does it serve? And to whom does it do a disservice? As your ruler Mars is soon to square the ‘wounded healer’ Chiron, remember that the desire to ‘teach someone a lesson’ carries a lesson of its own for the would-be teacher: it robs us of our freedom to move on and be constructive with our energies. All that is far too precious to relinquish now. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses. For a forecast that will both touch your heart and lift your spirits call 0906 751 5601. TAURUS SOMETIMES, every Apr 21 — May 21 avenue seems to come to a dead end. Yet we all know that in life’s labyrinth there’s always a path forward. It’s just that when being chased by a Minotaur, or when there’s a scary, wolf-like creature at our door, our haste can become the enemy of any successful exploration. Don’t let fear be your motivation. Think only of the prize. The worry that’s stalking you is far less nerve-racking than you imagine. And the bounty, just around the corner, is more appealing than you could dare hope for. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses.

GEMINI AS YOUR ruler May 22 — June 22 Mercury slips slowly backwards through the sky, we find you reviewing an alliance. You can’t help but wonder who’s benefiting more from this. You’re doing a lot of giving, but it’s hard to say what you get back. Something is out of balance. But before you make a drastic move, let a little more time pass. As Venus enters the astrological equation, you may soon see the beauty of your situation. Don’t be too quick to write off what could be a valuable opportunity.

CANCER ‘SHARING is June 23 — July 23 caring’ is the motto we teach our children. It is a very simple concept. Yet, as we grow older, we seem to forget it. We’ve all had experience of sharing with someone, only to feel unappreciated and taken for granted. But it is worth remembering that no matter how many times we’ve been bitten, it’s important not to become so shy that

we hide our treasures away. Today, if you reach out with a simple act of generosity, your

kindness will be rewarded. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses. For a forecast that will both touch your heart and lift your spirits call 0906 751 5604. LEO ‘YOU are on earth, there July 24 — Aug 23 is no cure for that.’ wrote Samuel Beckett. I expect you’ll be hearing from him again soon. Some of his best lines seem to relate closely to your situation. I can’t resist his suggestion that our very existence is, in itself, a form of malaise. It isn’t, of course. But it can feel that way sometimes. As the Sun soon opposes Chiron, remember that the reason that there’s no cure, is because you don’t need to be cured. You just need to see why what looks bad is actually rather good. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses.

One game recently involved him driving a submarine through murky water, heading towards blips on a radar to collect various items. After hours spent completing this tedious activity, his reward was for the master of the quest to hightail it with this hard-won bounty! Sometimes, we spend far too much time and effort completing duties that have little prospect of reward. Make sure, today, that you’re working towards a goal that’s worth achieving.

explain a hunch. Every so often, though, we experience a feeling which gives rise to a new idea. We just ‘know’ that somehow we have to trust and follow it. Although such impulsive acts are acceptable in creative environments, they’re frowned upon in conventional situations, where argument and reason are more valued. But as Mercury, in your solar twelfth house, forms a link to Venus, in your sign, it’s assisting you through your intuitive powers rather than your intellect.

SCORPIO HEROES sacrifice Oct 24 — Nov 22 their time to help those in need. It makes you wonder if Superman ever tires of abandoned dinner plans and halffinished crosswords! Still, it’s clear that superheroes risk life and limb to help the less fortunate. Is altruism the only motivation? Or does something else make it worth their while? You’re hardly invincible, and had your share of pain in the past, but it’s time to access your hidden powers. Someone is in distress and you know what to do. By taking action, you’ll gain more than you realise. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses. For a forecast that will both touch your heart and lift your spirits call 0906 751 5608. SAGITTARIUS IS IT a Nov 23 — Dec 21 bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s a flying pig! And what’s behind it? It’s a leopard changing its spots! What a magnificent menagerie. Alas, it’s about as much use as a chocolate teapot. Any fool can make promises . . . and break them. Actions, now, speak stronger — especially if they are your actions. Don’t try to bluff in the wake of a retrograde Mercury-Sun conjunction squaring Mars in your sign. If you want to be bowled straight balls, just play with a straight bat.

CAPRICORN WHEN our Dec 22 — Jan 20 motivations are unclear, when we aren’t sure why we’ve set particular events in motion, any success that ensues can feel a little cheap. Hard-won achievement is far more rewarding than blind luck. And the fulfilment of long-held ambition is preferable over the completion of arbitrary goals. You may be feeling a little confused about why you’re on the path you’re on, or why you’re seeing the results that you see. Don’t linger too long on these questions. You’ve made wise decisions for the right reasons. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses. For a forecast that will both touch your heart and lift your spirits call 0906 751 5610. AQUARIUS IF WE linger Jan 21 — Feb 19 too long in our comfort zone, the zone becomes increasingly less comfortable. Think of what happens when you’re tired — your bed looks like the best place in the world. But what if you’re full of beans and can’t get up because someone is sleeping in your living room? You’ll soon lose enthusiasm for that mattress. The Sun soon makes an intriguing angle with Uranus. Get up, get going and go beyond your barriers. Dare to do what’s different. You’ll soon grow comfortable with a challenge. We’re in a magical portal between powerful Eclipses. For a forecast that will both touch your heart and lift your spirits call 0906 751 5611. PISCES SOMEONE is shining a Feb 20 — Mar 20 light on an area of your life you find uncomfortable. They’re focusing on a tender place that could do without friction being applied. Yet, as every professional sportsperson will tell you, there’s no such thing as pain-free playing. To reach the heights, you’ll need to overcome this pressure. The truth is that you may find that it actually spurs you on. You have a glorious opportunity to progress towards a longheld ambition. There may be pain, but there’s far more to gain.
