OSCAR CAINER

SATURN is the cartoon bad boy of the cosmos. He has a reputation for being stern and instilling discipline . . . so much so that the moment he arrives back at the point he occupied when we were born is known as the dreaded Saturn Return. Today Mercury makes an encouraging link with the cosmic teacher, and at the weekend, the Sun repeats the same alignment. Although this might not be rainbows and roses, it is good news. Taken seriously, it provides a chance to assume some authority. ARIES ONE side-effect Mar 21 — Apr 20 of heightened sensitivity is that you feel more vulnerable.

PISCES THE Buddha advised Feb 20 — Mar 20 us not to dwell in the past or dream of the future, but to concentrate on the present moment. Those words spoken long ago are pertinent today. If we learn to look through the lens of the ‘here and now’, it changes our perspective and helps us to see the magic available in every moment. It takes moment-by-moment work of course. But as Venus and your ruler converge today, they bring you the insight to see what’s really going on, and what you can do to enhance the magic. The sky is positively charged with astrological promise. For your LATEST inspiring guide to the week ahead, call 0906 751 5612.
