EarliEr this week, when Mercury became conjunct with Jupiter, we entered a period encouragin­g us to free our minds of constraint; to explore ideas and be uninhibite­d in our views of what’s possible. Now, as Mercury squares Mars, life is asking us to put these ideas into action. it’s all very well having innovative thoughts and exciting plans. But, as any defeated politician will tell you, they don’t count for much if they’re never implemente­d. Today could be the day you start to make a difference.

ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20 YOU are definitely the driver. You’ve got your hands on the wheel and your foot on the pedal. There’s no one else who can shape your destiny at the moment. But that doesn’t mean you must lead a solo expedition. You can still be in charge, even if you have a co-pilot. You don’t have to heed their advice, but sometimes it’s nice just to have a companion on the road, to keep you focused and sing along with you to the radio. Today, don’t dismiss someone for the sake of autonomy. You’re both on the same journey. There’s no need to worry. All you need is some guidance. Your week ahead forecast can help. Call 0906 751 5601.

TAURUS Apr 21 — May 21 YESTERDAY, we discussed the sustainabi­lity of your circumstan­ces. With the Sun moving into opposition with Uranus this week, things can’t carry on for ever as they are. But they can for a while longer. Though you may want to consider edging towards an exit, you don’t have to drop everything and run there. With Mercury squaring Mars, there’s a reason why you find yourself where you are, and why you’re doing what you’re doing. Trust the judgement that led you here. There’s much to learn and much to gain. Your week ahead forecast will help you see the bigger picture and keep you moving in the right direction. Call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI WHAT happens May 22 — June 22 when we’ve been wronged? We get angry. But what happens if we find out that we were mistaken . . . that a perceived slight was misunderst­ood or imagined? Does that mean we didn’t actually feel those feelings or think those negative thoughts? Of course not. We go through the same process, except that we have no one to blame but ourselves! Today, double-check before jumping to conclusion­s. Is someone really trying to antagonise you? What does your heart really desire and how can you achieve what your really want? Call your weekly forecast 0906 751 5603.

CANCER THEY say: ‘To err June 23 — July 23 is human, but to forgive is divine.’ If it’s that simple, all we’d have to do to become god-like would be to look for people to whom we could offer absolution. Or perhaps, forgivenes­s becomes divine only when it’s offered in response to an action that has shaken the foundation­s of the person now bestowing mercy. The Moon conjuncts Neptune today. Accept the opportunit­y to see what kindness you can find in your heart. And be a little bit more divine. For advice to guide you through the twists and turns of the coming week, call your week ahead forecast: 0906 751 5604.

LEO July 24 — Aug 23 I HAVE a secret love for the band Queen. It’s not the most fashionabl­e music. It’s not as undergroun­d or as unusual as much of my music collection. But when one of their songs comes on the radio, I recognise it immediatel­y. That’s the mark of a great and timeless record. What aspect of you is instantly recognisab­le? Don’t be afraid of making an impression. And even if you want to break free, don’t abandon your greatest strengths. What you have is a kind of magic. How can you stay focused and happy in this busy world? Your weekly forecast will give you the help you need. Call 0906 751 5605.

VIRGO I COMPARED you to Aug 24 — Sep 23 the Queen yesterday. Did I go too far? Has it gone to your head? What if you turn up to read this today, expecting a red carpet? Oh look! I’ve just given you the words ‘red’ and ‘carpet’. That’s pretty much a regal reception! It’s time you remembered how special you are. Some people in your world are keen to treat you with deference. Just be careful what you decree. With Mercury squaring Mars, the way to satisfy even the most passing of fancies will become obvious. Do you need help? What’s the best way to move forward and ensure your success? Call your weekly forecast: 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23 WHEN my wife was heavily pregnant with our son, she began nesting — something that many mothers will be familiar with. At first, I was all for the increased tidiness. But it wasn’t long before every spare minute was spent putting up shelves or sanding down ‘deathtrap’ table corners. Sometimes, all we can focus on is home and family. That’s not a bad place to direct our gaze. Yet we mustn’t be over-protective, or feel as if we’re in the grip of a security crisis. Analyse the threat. You’re not that vulnerable. There’s no need to worry. All you need is some guidance. Your week ahead forecast can help. Call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO Oct 24 — Nov 22 YOU can allow yourself to get caught up in an argument or you can disentangl­e yourself from it. Much depends on how you value your peace of mind. ‘Life,’ as The Beatles sang, ‘is very short and there’s no time for fussing and fighting.’ I’m not saying we should avoid all confrontat­ion, just that we should choose our battles. As Mercury now squares your ruler Mars, you’re being reeled towards a conflict that will take lots of energy and give little back, even if you win. Focus on something more worthwhile. Your week ahead forecast will help you see the bigger picture and keep you moving in the right direction. Call 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIU­S Nov 23 — Dec 21 THIS week, the alignments have been encouragin­g you to think big. Today however, there’s a different dynamic. My old university lecturer used to say, ‘It’s not who you know that gets you ahead, it’s what you do with who you know’. Life is trying to give you a similar push. You may have had flashes of inspiratio­n this week. But if they go no further than the pages of your journal, they will take you nowhere. It’s time to make yourself heard and take action. What does your heart really desire and how can you achieve what your really want? Call your weekly forecast 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN YOUR head Dec 22 — Jan 20 wants one thing, yet you desire something different. How can you reconcile this? What advice do you want to hear? Should I be poetic and tell you to trust what you feel, even if it seems illogical? Would it be more responsibl­e to steer you towards realism, and encourage you to think more clearly? With Mercury squaring Mars in your sign, you need to reach a compromise with yourself. The good news is, you can. Be decisive today. You’ll make a very pleasing move forward. For excellent advice to guide you through the twists and turns of the coming week, call your week ahead forecast: 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS I KNOW you’re Jan 21 — Feb 19 a clever cookie and that you see answers where others find questions, and that solutions and conundrums come hand in hand (whereas, to the rest of the world they appear as strange bedfellows). But I wonder if you know how much you don’t know? I’m not suggesting that someone has more insight than you. All of us spend as much time flapping about in darkness as we do walking in the light. Don’t get worked up by the mystery today. How can you stay focused and happy in this busy world? Your weekly forecast will give you the help you need. Call 0906 751 5611.

PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20 THE question today is: ‘What’s fair?’ Actually, it might be useful to also ask: ‘What’s morally just?’ and ‘What do you deserve?’ Now, I’m not really suggesting that you can answer these questions. It’s debatable whether any of us are qualified to make judgements about most situations. And more questionab­le still whether we can objectivel­y evaluate ourselves. But, with Mercury moving from your ruler to square a Mars recently linked to Neptune, what’s fair is surely what has to happen right now. Do you need help? What’s the best way to move forward and ensure your success? Call your weekly forecast: 0906 751 5612.
