Horoscopes

SCORPIO 24 Oct – 22 Nov

Rather than use your money or talent in a conventional way, you’ll wonder whether to be more adventurous than usual. You’ll be spurred on by a link between Venus and Uranus, which will put in focus an arrangement that promises a lot. Don’t be too proud to ask someone experienced in the area concerned to cast their eye over whatever you plan to do next. And be prepared to make any changes that are recommended.

SAGITTARIUS 23 Nov – 21 Dec

If you’re tempted to take a gamble within unfamiliar territory, the stakes obviously mustn’t be too high. Don’t let a Sun-pluto tie-up persuade you that you can afford to risk losing so much that, if things were to go wrong, you’d be left feeling fairly broke but also hugely embarrassed. That really wouldn’t suit you.

CAPRICORN 22 Dec – 20 Jan

Heated words between yourself and others are unlikely to cause a permanent rift. But you could learn from one or two of the comments that have been made because they underline a potential problem that you have all chosen to ignore. Face up to it now rather than let it cause lasting damage later on.

AQUARIUS 21 Jan – 19 Feb

Some people have seen you as a killjoy recently. So you need to restore their faith in you as the kind of person who has a fun-loving streak as well as the ability to be self-disciplined when required. If the more serious side of life has overtaken you, an explanation, if not an apology, might help.

PISCES 20 Feb – 20 Mar

By becoming part of a journey or get-together that will broaden your horizons, you will learn and gain quite a lot. And if you allow Mercury’s alliance with Pluto to encourage you to be a little more daring than usual, you might well undergo an experience you’ve always thought was beyond the realms of possibility.

ARIES 21 Mar – 20 Apr

Gossip might cause you to doubt the wisdom of embarking on a venture with certain others. Rather than lose your nerve and back out altogether, you should discuss your concerns with those in the know. You might be worrying unnecessarily, in which case the opinions of those you trust will prove invaluable.

TAURUS 21 Apr – 21 May

Although you know you’ve got a difficult message to convey to somebody, you won’t want to appear heavy-handed. Avoid letting a Sun-pluto connection encourage you to say more than is necessary. With a few well-chosen words you can make your point in a way that allows the two of you to remain friendly.

GEMINI 22 May – 21 Jun

Whether or not you ask for it, you will be given advice on how best to manage an unusual set of circumstances that could impact your everyday life. You may not realise it, but someone more experienced than yourself in such matters sees your approach as lacking in pragmatism. Consider what is being said.

CANCER 22 Jun – 23 Jul

Recently you’ve felt in need of a signpost to steer you towards a person, place or situation that could enhance a part of your life that’s not quite as you’d like it to be. Any day now a message from an unexpected source will encourage you to make moves towards unfamiliar territory. You can’t lose.

LEO 24 Jul – 23 Aug

Others will steer clear of developments meant to improve your domestic life. But the Sun collaborating with Neptune means you’ll be at your most creative. That’s fine provided you’re not distracted by fanciful ideas and lose sight of what really matters. Nor must you spend more than you can afford.

VIRGO 24 Aug – 23 Sep

A storm is brewing. Do you have to be the one to placate everybody involved and put things right? True, you probably have been the one who has picked up the pieces in the past. But perhaps the people involved are taking advantage of your good nature. Point out that something needs to change.

LIBRA 24 Sep – 23 Oct

Every now and again you accuse yourself of sharing too many secrets with one particular person. But ask yourself whether this has ever caused you problems. Perhaps you need to be even more trusting with regard to this individual who you’ve been able to lean on when necessary. Isn’t that what everybody wants?
