Horoscopes
LIBRA 24 Sep – 23 Oct
Try not to raise your expectations to such heights that disappointment is inevitable. You are going through a confident, optimistic phase. And that’s fine provided you keep your feet on the ground regarding a facet of your private life that will need to be approached realistically for a while. There are no magic remedies.
SCORPIO 24 Oct – 22 Nov
No one could blame you for steering clear of people who’ve judged you in recent weeks. The build-up to a Venus-pluto clash at the weekend should help you see that you’ve nothing to lose by confronting your critics. The quiet, controlled power you exude will prove you’re a match for just about anybody.
SAGITTARIUS 23 Nov – 21 Dec
Seeds have been sown that will hopefully transform a part of your financial affairs or working life that hasn’t brought you much joy recently. If things work out, you can perhaps share your good fortune with others. Just don’t think you have to give away everything you gain. Keep something for yourself.
CAPRICORN 22 Dec – 20 Jan
The desire to shout from the rooftops and let everyone know how well you are doing these days is understandable. But be careful not to generate a great deal of envy in those who have felt for some while that they are in your shadow. Better to let any encouraging news come out slowly and gradually.
AQUARIUS 21 Jan – 19 Feb
Those urging you to be more adventurous mustn’t convince you that you need travel far and wide. But they do have a point in that you probably have remained within some safe confines in terms of your private or professional life. Try branching out without incurring great risk or a huge change of lifestyle.
PISCES 20 Feb – 20 Mar
Someone close will assume a treat has been arranged for just the two of you to share. But Pluto’s tie-up with the Sun will persuade you to include several others. If you’re accused of being thoughtless, explain your friendly gesture was well-intended. Once again you’ll realise the green-eyed monster can create drama!
ARIES 21 Mar – 20 Apr
Keep your nerve when you’re expected to produce initiatives designed to keep you and others busy. You may feel you’re being placed under undue pressure because some others consider you to be the only one able to pull something out of the bag. You can do it – but only if you remain brim-full of confidence.
TAURUS 21 Apr – 21 May
Accept that you must face up to responsibilities you’ve ignored, but don’t become a slave to them. With Jupiter entering a conscientious section of your chart as it makes its way into Libra, you could be at risk of going over the top and not knowing when to stop. Do what’s expected of you. But no more.
GEMINI 22 May – 21 Jun
Once again, colleagues or associates are casting doubt on your ability to succeed within challenging territory, even though you have more talent in your little finger than they have between the lot of them. Quite why they’re trying to undermine you is a mystery. But don’t spend a minute trying to solve it. Move on.
CANCER 22 Jun – 23 Jul
Workmates or friends may find your ideas fanciful. And, as Saturn does battle with Neptune, there may be some conflict between the pragmatic and the creative aspects of what you’re trying to accomplish. Trust your instincts to keep you well-balanced. Other people may think they know best, but they don’t.
LEO 24 Jul – 23 Aug
If some misguided individuals assume you are taking on certain responsibilities purely for your own material gain, they’re quite wrong. Tell yourself that anyone whose opinion matters knows of your altruistic streak, which right now is a driving force. So refuse to dignify any judgemental comments with a response.
