The all-seeing Jan Jacques tells you what the stars have in store this week
ARIES 20 Mar-19 Apr
Yes, it’s Christmas, but don’t feel under pressure to be a party animal this week. Use your natural sparkle sparingly and pace yourself – there’s a career peak coming, and you need to be poised to conquer. Meanwhile, a healthy change lies ahead for a child in your life.
LUCKY MOVE: Deliberate
TAURUS 20 Apr-20 May
If you know you’re prone to hoarding, this is the week to unjumble your stuff, Taurus. It’s prime time to declutter and spending just a few hours on it will have you more composed. Elsewhere, Mercury in your 8th house hints at a clever head for Christmas budgeting.
LUCKY PATH: Unfettered
GEMINI 21 May-20 Jun
’Tis the season of second chances for you, Gemini. Mercury in your 7th house hints at a love reprieve for you or someone close. It could be a small forgiveness or a big deal, so be prepared. Meanwhile a pal’s plan might be unusual, but keep an open mind.
LUCKY IDEA: Festive do-overs
CANCER 21 Jun-22 Jul
Get set for a super-sociable festive season, but first recharge those batteries with a quiet week. There are no worries work-wise, as Mars (your career planet) continues his smooth aspect. Some rest, a killer outfit and you’ll, ahem, sleigh ’em .
LUCKY ACCESSORY: Sleep mask
LEO 23 Jul-23 Aug
Temptation is hell to avoid, but you can do it. A sweet Mercury aspect (your financial planet) hints at a comfy money situ if there are no surprise splurges. Stay strong. Elsewhere, an admirer may emerge from the woodwork.
LUCKY MOVE: Hiding that credit card
VIRGO 24 Aug-23 Sep
Don’t let someone’s judgement deter you – that’s their issue. As model Iskra Lawrence says, “We don’t need to be categorised. We are all beautifully unique.” Elsewhere, have you missed a name from that party list? LUCKY SONG: Express Yourself (Madonna)
LIBRA 23 Sep-22 Oct
There’s a downside to being smart. A super-strong 3rd house can make you overthink, losing you precious sleep. Be strict about taking work breaks and opt for a relaxing treatment if you can. At home, make sure to resist rushing a project.
LUCKY MIND-SET: Unhurried
SCORPIO 23 Oct-21 Nov
Venus in your own sign usually signals a sizzling love life. But do make sure this passion doesn’t lead you to overlook a home issue. Meanwhile, someone workrelated may have designs on you.
LUCKY PROBLEM: Too many admirers
SAGITTARIUS 22 Nov- 21 Dec
It really is your way or the highway at work right now. With planetary power on your side, you make the rules. It’s different at home – flexibility makes everyone happy this week, so don’t be too rigid. Elsewhere, a friend may have some moving news. LUCKY STRENGTH: Adaptability
CAPRICORN 22 Dec-19 Jan
You’re still in a strong spiritual phase and your instincts are spot on. But this week, someone close may surprise you. Workwise, a tricky issue is best solved with your plain-speaking aplomb. You can be honest now, so don’t hide from it. LUCKY SKILL: Playing it straight
AQUARIUS 20 Jan-18 Feb
There’s so much to organise, and so little time. But it’s not like you to panic, and Mars leaving your sign at the end of the week will melt away some of that stress. Meanwhile, a child or younger person reminds you what really matters. LUCKY LIFESAVER: Real love
PISCES 19 Feb-19 Mar
Never underestimate the charisma of Pisces. Mercury in your career house hints that networking may help shape job success. Elsewhere, you’ll need that charm, plus a little saintly patience, with a pal who’s not in a party mood.
LUCKY STONE: White diamond
