Leo

You could be tempted to shake off some responsibilities this week and take a break to relax and play. A change is certainly needed, but be prepared to face comments from those closest to you if you neglect your duties completely. Friends could give you a boost from Friday onwards.

Sagittarius

You could be wondering if there is still mileage in a close connection and what you’d like to achieve if there is. An honest assessment of where you stand should help you make beneficial changes over the coming year. The Sun moving into your sign on Thursday should lift your spirits. A good week for…initiative

A friend could spur you on to action midweek if you’ve been hesitating about making a decision on a joint venture.

New possibilities are opening up for many on both the home and community fronts. So think big, aim high, take some creative risks and act positively. Opportunities that appear towards the weekend could be just what you’ve been looking for to make the best use of an underused talent.

Someone could make you make you sit up and think hard as the week begins. Don’t ignore what’s said. It’s more likely to be constructive feedback than criticism. Time spent alone from Thursday could lead to useful insights about what you want to put your energy into next.

The full moon in your sign invites you to check if you and those closest to you are having an equal say in the relationship.

The answer should be clear to see now, as you may have differing views over a career or community matter. Generosity to others brings generosity to you too.

Libra

Instead of arguing if somebody disagrees with you this week, give a bit of thought to some of your assumptions. Looking at things differently doesn’t mean backing down. It will open you up to possibilities. A relative or neighbour may give you confidence with a task you’ve been putting off.

A good week for…listening

aquarius

Don’t be too demanding this week, especially about financial matters, or you could stir up more resistance than you bargained for. Instead, doors could open wide, bringing you what you want, if you’ll listen to thoughtful advice from friends and be prepared to give before you receive.
