RUSSELL GRANT

ARIES March 21–April 20

It needs to be accepted that you cannot hold on to everything for ever. Life is changing. You can see the sense of letting go of some commitments and parts of your life that aren’t working out. Taking up a new hobby or interest will give you a new lease on life.

TAURUS April 21-May 21

An opportunity to travel is worth taking. You are ready to do something very different and this makes you more receptive than usual to new experiences. The offer of an interview is a strong possibility and this will be an ideal excuse to splash out on some brand new clothes.

GEMINI May 22-June 21

Requests and expectations from your family and friends will make this a more hectic time than you had anticipated. Even though you had other things planned, you will feel obliged to help someone out. Just keep a balance between supporting others and looking after your own interests.

CANCER June 22-July 23

Someone does not want to be a bother and for that reason they have been keeping quiet about some of the problems they have been facing. It will become obvious that they are struggling and even if they still refuse to talk about it you will offer to take some of the load off their shoulders.

LEO July 24-Aug 23

A youngster in the family is starting to get restless. It’s hard to stand back to allow them the chance to enjoy some extra independence but this is what they need right now. Maybe they will go about things the wrong way but this too is how they learn from their mistakes.

VIRGO Aug 24-Sept 23

You know what you are doing and that’s why you feel annoyed when someone questions your ability. You have always been a stickler for detail and you will painstakingly leave no stone unturned to ensure the best possible outcome. Your diligence will be rewarded in time to come.

LIBRA Sept 24–Oct 23

Conflict always makes you uncomfortable. Crosscurrents within the workplace will have an adverse effect on your health. Be sure you don’t take your mood out on your partner or any of your closest alliances. At some point you are going to have to explain to them what is going on.

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov22

Consult a trusted expert about a legal matter or financial dispute. Hidden information could be discovered by someone in the know. If you’re getting heavily into debt, consolidating loans could make finances more manageable. A debt management charity can help arrange such deals.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21

Knowledge gained some time ago will come in useful now. Even if it means you have to quickly check you have all your facts right, it won’t take much effort to remind yourself of the details. Play your cards right and you could be offered an exciting teaching opportunity.

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 20

Someone is struggling with routine tasks. They’re growing restless and are easily distracted. You might come up with a way to make the work more interesting and to prove that even the most tiresome routines can be approached in new ways. You can make a success out of this day.

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19

Take a more careful look before going any further with joint plans. A cautious approach is advisable. Whether it is romance, travel or a long-term financial arrangement, there may be complications or issues that are being kept hidden or that you have not yet considered fully.

PISCES Feb 20-Mar 20

You could do with some light-hearted entertainment. It will be easier to push aside stressful thoughts when you are spending time with upbeat people. A friend’s unpredictable behaviour will keep you amused and entertained. Their youthful antics will be surprisingly refreshing.
