RUSSELL GRANT

Aries March 21–April 20

There should be plenty of chances to enhance your romance and add sparkle to your social life. Invite those who are closest to you to join you in some special plans and your relationship will flourish and grow. Personal relationships are improving all round. A partner is more open to your suggestions.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

You are working hard. All the time you are devoting towards getting results will make a difference eventually. Intuitively you sense this. Common sense leads you to knowing your life has got to improve soon when you are making so much effort. Stay positive. Stay strong.

Gemini May 22 –June 21

It may not have been a part of your plans for the day but if you are offered the chance to promote a personal goal it would be a shame to let this pass you by. Competitors will quickly seize the opportunity so why don’t you? If you’re serious, you will recognise when to act.

Cancer June 22 –July 23

Friends want one thing, while your family wants another and you are stuck right in the middle. If you can’t find a compromise then you might decide it’s going to be impossible to please anyone so you might as well go your own way and just please yourself.

Leo July 24 – August 23

Work and home matters are in a state of flux. You haven’t a clue what to expect from one moment to the next. Someone in a leadership position will disappoint you with their inability to see the bigger picture and who has unrealistic expectations of the team as a whole.

Virgo Aug 24 – Sept 23

You wish people would praise you for your accomplishments instead of criticising you for trivial issues that are easily resolved. Someone in a position of power does not seem to respect or appreciate all you do for them. It is time you drew their attention to recent achievements.

Libra Sept 24–Oct 23

Your creative flair will be welcomed in a group effort. Certain people are aware of your skills and talents even if you haven’t brought these to their attention. Being offered a special role you had imagined would go to someone else will fuel your passion for life.

Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 22

A relative will make it known that it is important to them that a family issue is soon resolved. You might take another look at this dilemma and come up with a way of tackling the problem from a different angle. Later on, no matter where you go, you will seem to be in demand.

Sagittarius Nov 23 – Dec 21

You want to take part in as many activities as possible. With so much going on around you, it is unlikely you will be spending too much time in any one place. It can be amazing how much you can cram into one day. Check there are no dental or medical appointments you have forgotten about.

Capricorn Dec 22 –Jan 20

Social events could get expensive very quickly. Some friends will be spending money as if it were water. They may not have the same level of worry about bills that you do – and you don’t want to fall into future debt. Set a spending limit at the start of the day and stick to it.

Aquarius Jan 21 – Feb 19

It will seem unfair that someone in the family accuses you of spoiling their day. It won’t be your fault some arrangements are cancelled. You can understand why people are disappointed but if transport problems or illness lie behind this current state of affairs, there is little you can do about it. Pisces

Feb 20 – Mar 20 The dullness that is felt at the start of a quickly arranged event will change very quickly. Spontaneous plans could bring you a lot of laughs and plenty to enjoy. If things have been dull on the work scene, a new face is about to join your team and their ideas will be inspirational.
