HOROSCOPE

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

Putting in a little extra effort could result in a raise or even a promotion. People will be impressed by your no-nonsense approach to assignments. Instead of complaining or creating lots of drama, you roll up your sleeves and get busy. Stay positive. A surprising benefit will arrive.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22

An interesting career opportunity with great benefits may be on the horizon. Although your family may think you are a shoo-in for this position, you will face some stiff competition. That makes it very important to be prepared. Spend extra time putting together an impressive résumé, portfolio and list of references.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23

Your business or romantic partner could have wonderful news. A high-paying job may improve both your financial fortunes. Resist the temptation to go on a big shopping spree. Instead, look for a way to put the extra money into a savings account.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

Becoming more emotionally resilient will improve all your relationships. Learn to overcome angsts and hangups you’ve had since childhood. There’s no reason you can’t lead the happy life you want. Break any bad habits or impulses you developed to cope with stress.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

Money for a home improvement project could fall into your lap. Improving the plumbing or electricity will take a load off your mind. If you don’t own your place, you might be able to buy one, thanks to a generous relative. Alternatively, you could get a very good loan from the bank.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

If you are on a self-improvement programme don’t tell anybody about it. You’ll probably do much better if you keep these goals to yourself. The last thing you need is to fall victim to a rival who wants you to fail. Your financial situation isn’t as stable as you’d like it to be.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

A friend may invite you on an exciting trip. Don’t waste time mulling over your decision. Accept immediately. You can easily find someone to cover for you at work and attend to domestic responsibilities while you’re away. If you’re in a relationship, beware of casual flirtations.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23

An influential friend, romantic partner or business associate will encourage you to develop your potential. Going back to the classroom, taking an overseas trip or applying for a new job could be on the cards. Don’t exaggerate your capabilities on an application.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

A loving relationship could change your priorities. Instead of focusing on work, you may spend more time on what you consider to be the important things of life. Resist the temptation to go completely over the top. You like to excel at whatever you are doing.

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

Someone will try to flirt with you. It is fun exchanging witty remarks, but do you mean business? If you want a serious relationship, be candid. Playing games could only end up in heartbreak. Do you already have a romantic partner? You could get a sudden opportunity to take a relaxing break together.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

Use your powers of persuasion to get a first date, a favour or a loan. It will be very hard to resist your charm at this time. If you need help or advice, be sure to ask for it. Pretending to have experience will be more trouble than it is worth. Fortunately, your prospects for finding a great position are strong.

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Spending more time with accomplished people can improve your own chances of success. Pay attention to how these friends live their lives, solve their problems and pursue their dreams. Following their example could have surprising results. Stop suppressing your desires to accommodate a demanding partner.
