RUSSELL GRANT

ARIES March 21–April 20

A business lunch will give you an appetite for excitement when you are made an offer you initially won’t want to refuse. Give yourself enough time to think it over. Look to the past and be guided by experience if you are faced with a difficult decision. Fools rush in.

TAURUS April 21-May 21

You expected a few demands to come your way. When these don’t materialise you won’t say no to making the most of a few hours of peace. Someone close will want to share your company this evening. You can’t go wrong if you devote your time to people who mean the most to you.

GEMINI May 22-June 21

CANCER June 22-July 23

It is sometimes the simplest solution that can bring the most immense release. As tempting as it might be to leave it for another day, routine dental and health check-ups should not be ignored. Once you get this over with, you will wonder what the fuss was all about.

LEO July 24-Aug 23

Colleagues who are easily distracted are causing you a lot of frustration. Insist that others keep to the point if you are trying to determine the legalities of a certain situation. With everyone telling you different things it won’t be easy to distinguish between truth and fiction.

LIBRA Sept 24–Oct 23

The way you handle some situations has taken someone by surprise. They didn’t think you had it in you. In the eyes of others, you are rising to even greater heights. Even though you will not feel you have done anything astounding, your hard work has impressed those in positions of powers.

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov22

Wait and find out more before you pass on some news you hear from a neighbour. The gossips have been having an absolute field day. It might be true that there is an element of truth to this rumour but it will have been exaggerated out of all proportion. Don’t bite back.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21

You are intent on achieving a professional goal and that’s why you won’t mind having to work at home should this be necessary. If you succeed in your aims, this will impress your boss and others in positions of power. You are hoping that a promotion could come out of this.

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19

A money-making idea sounds reasonable but consider it carefully before giving a firm reply. You won’t be surprised to find yourself being roped in to assist a fundraising or community effort. This is something you have helped out with before and people assume you have time to do it.

PISCES Feb 20-Mar 20

It might be up to you to persuade everyone to work harmoniously in a group situation. You can do this by generally keeping other people looking on the bright side. This will become increasingly easier as you start to see good results for your joint effort. You bring a brightness.
