RUSSELL GRANT

ARIES March 21–April 20

Although you appreciate the company of family and friends, it will be those who are quiet and undemanding you will prefer to be with most right now. As well as having personal business to attend to, you would rather get on with this without any interference. Don’t be afraid to say no.

TAURUS April 21-May 21

It means a lot to you to contribute to a worthwhile cause but you may not have realised how much you have put into this through time, effort and expense. This will not be regretted but it is having consequences on your own financial situation so you cannot continue as you have been doing.

GEMINI May 22-June 21

Electrical or plumbing problems need to be immediately addressed. These will call for a lot of extra expenditure. Because this is unexpected, it will cause annoyance. Just as you were getting on top of things, this had to happen. Make sensible decisions to stay in control of your money.

CANCER June 22-July 23

You love putting your mind and imagination to work and you’re never too old to stop learning. Start looking into ways you can challenge yourself, intellectually. Enrolling on a course of study and adding to your qualifications will raise your profile and others will seek your insight.

LEO July 24-Aug 23

Someone close lacks their usual sparkle and you’re concerned about their health. They may refuse to discuss what’s on their mind but it’s important they know you are there for them should they need any help or support. Your own thoughts are on the more serious aspects of life.

VIRGO Aug 24-Sept 23

There is still work to be done but the seeds have been planted and you will soon reap the rewards of your past hard-working efforts. There may be a need to take a slight change in course however. Carefully consider the best direction to take and make that a priority.

LIBRA Sept 24–Oct 23

A property transaction, inheritance or insurance matter seems to be dragging on much longer than you anticipated. Something you were feeling positive about has turned into a complicated and longwinded transaction. Patience is needed. Have faith it will soon be over.

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov22

You’re digging deep to find your internal compass as you seriously consider your past, the future, areas of your life that may have gone wrong and others you would like to improve on. Believe in yourself and let this be your guide as you move further forward to your true goals.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21

It really doesn’t matter what anyone else might say, you know exactly what you are going to do and how you intend to handle a contentious situation. You have the confidence and positivity needed to cope with a friend who seems determined to dampen your enthusiasm.

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 20

Someone you trusted to get on with an important task has made no effort to carry out this responsibility. You’re disappointed in them and annoyed with yourself for having put too much trust in them. As well as having to carry out this work yourself, you know now not to trust them in future.

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19

Getting involved in a cause that is close to your heart will be so rewarding. You are determined to keep fighting for what you believe in. A big supporter of this project will champion all your efforts. Press for more details in matters that as yet have remained unclear to you.

PISCES Feb 20-Mar 20

This is a good time to think of the future and to consider what is needed to make a special career hope or dream come true. It may mean making use of a skill that you have so far never put to use. A small dispute over finances can be resolved when there is time yet to make up for this mistake.
