OSCAR CAINER

NAUGHTY but nice, spicy but sweet! In chemistry, ‘excitation’ is when energy is added to a system to change it into something less stable. In this agitated state, it holds more potential for action. Today, a peaceful and serene

Neptune and Venus convergence is being ‘excited’ by the addition of Mars to the mix. We don’t want bottled-up feelings to explode open, but hearts and souls can be charged with an enjoyable bit of fizz!

ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20

SOME subjects are taboo; we’re not meant to raise them as issues or even discuss them. There are truths that we’re expected to lie about rather than admit to. People who are brave enough to question these conventions are always outlawed at first, and celebrated later, when we’ve seen the error of our ways. Yet what happens when we ask ourselves questions that we’ve previously managed to ignore? With your ruler, Mars, in a powerful position, you’re about to find out! For valuable insight in affairs of the heart, and money matters, hear your 2020 predictions. Make this year great! Call 0906 751 5601.

TAURUS Apr 21 - May 21

YOU’RE not alone. But that doesn’t mean you don’t sometimes feel as if you are. Even the best friendship or relationship is unable to relieve the current pressure of the burden you’re carrying on your shoulders. You’ve been almost staggering under a weight that you daren’t put down. Yet that doesn’t mean that you can’t take a little of the pressure off. As your ruler links to Neptune it brings a chance to take a rest while you consider the next stage of your journey. There’s an easier road ahead.

Your life can significantly change for the better in 2020. For important news about romance and money, call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI May 22 - June 22

WHEN clocks were invented, they were huge, with wheels and pendulums. Yet, even though things have come a long way, no one has managed to invent the mechanism we all want — the ability to press the pause button so that we can enjoy what we’re doing for a while longer. Or the ‘speed things up’ button when we’re impatient for something to happen. Or the ‘back button’, when we want to revisit a moment from the past. Yet, somehow, you have more power over time than you think.

Your romance and money forecasts for 2020 are jam-packed full of good news. For a valuable guide, call 0906 751 5603.

CANCER June 23 - July 23

WHEN we take the time to consider what we can achieve, we can easily be overwhelmed by possibilities. Perhaps that’s why some people prefer to blinker their minds and close their hearts. If they allow themselves to explore too many ideas, the time will come when they have to make a choice. Choices are tricky. What happens if we choose the wrong thing? You can’t put your life on hold and ignore an opportunity just because you’re fearful of what might happen. Think courageously today. Have you heard the news in your year-ahead forecasts? For valuable advice about love and money, call 0906 751 5604.

LEO July 24 - Aug 23

THERE’S a theory that if you add up the number of people who have ever passed away on Earth, it would be smaller than the number of us living on it today! But who knows how true that is? How does anyone know the right numbers to put into that difficult equation? More importantly, what do all those people come here for? And, in particular, what are you doing here right now? As Venus and Neptune link, they bring a reminder of why you’re here, and why life can be very good indeed.

Make 2020 the year when you change your life! Your love and finance forecasts have important news. Call 0906 751 5605.

VIRGO Aug 24 - Sep 23

ARE you in danger of falling into the trap of cutting off your nose to spite your face? It’s certainly starting to feel that way. You’ve placed your cards firmly on the table … but you’re beginning to worry. Have you taken too firm a stand? Can you uphold the values you’ve championed? Before you begin backpedalling, take a moment to think things through. Just because this is tough doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Hold on a little longer. Once you’ve weathered the first wave, you’ll get the knack of it!

Your predictions about romance and finance are ready! For a four-minute guide to your fortunes in 2020, call 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA Sep 24 - Oct 23

WHEN you’re unsure about how to deal with a situation, there’s a good chance it doesn’t matter what you do (or don’t do). As Venus links to Neptune, a series of unnecessary choices is taking up your time when you have more pressing issues to consider. At times like these, other people tend to be unhelpful; their opinions are only going to add to the distractions. If you take advantage of the energy Mars brings, you’ll uncover what you need to focus on, and make a vital decision. Bring luck and love into your life as Venus (your ruler) links with sensitive Neptune. Maximise the opportunity. Call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO Oct 24 - Nov 22

WHEN you overreact, it’s little more than self-punishment. We daydream about what we’d be able to achieve if only we were able to take a cool, calm step back; but we convince ourselves that this is never going to happen. Yet, relaxation is not just important … it’s vital. You can’t afford to give 110 per cent any more. Not only is it bad for you, it risks getting in the way of an important insight. If you can look at a source of stress from a different perspective today, you’ll see how to solve a dilemma easily.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 - Dec 21

WHERE do we want our enemies to be? Hidden behind something, so that we can forget about them? Or right before our eyes, so that we can see what they’re up to? Neither option is ideal; it’s never good to blank potential trouble, nor to give it pride of place. Today, as the Venus/Neptune link is energised by dynamic Mars, it brings you the courage to look at your worst enemy. Guess what? It’s your own fear of not doing as well as you’d like. You can easily stand up to that!

With dynamic Mars in your sign, you have the energy and insight to change your life. Find out more: call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 - Jan 20

EVEN so-called ‘experts’ seem to change their minds about what’s good for us and what’s not. One moment, we’re supposed to be eating one thing, the next, we’re supposed to be having less of it and supplementing it with something else. We live in a mass of contradictory advice which we have to navigate our way around. Yet perhaps it comes down to the simple fact that few things on our planet are entirely positive, or negative. Don’t be drawn into any extreme points of view today. Want to hear some priceless information about 2020? Just pick up the phone! Call 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 - Feb 19

THEY often say that necessity is the mother of invention. If true, it puts you into a strong position! You’re known for your ingenuity and innovation. You’re such a natural-born troubleshooter you are sometimes drawn to other people’s problems; they provide opportunities for you to show your skills. Today, Mars offers a chance to capitalise on time you’ve invested in solving a particularly difficult challenge. A just reward is due. Enjoy the glow of inner gratification it brings. Treat yourself to your 2020 prediction! There’s exciting news about love and money in your four-minute forecasts. Call 0906 751 5611.

PISCES Feb 20 - Mar 20

IF ONLY you knew what the future holds, you could run, with your arms wide open, to greet it. Although you sense tension ahead, you can feel a promise of happiness too. The feeling of apprehension you’re experiencing is due to the fact that you’re remembering the past with a degree of delusion — it seems more attractive than the future — and the further you try to look ahead, the more potential for problems you see. Yet you can afford to be confident. Everything’s working out perfectly. As Venus the planet of love links to your ruler, Neptune, there’s optimism and luck in your life. Make the most of it! Call 0906 751 5612.
