YOUR 2023 YEAR AHEAD

What do the stars have in store for you? Our astro expert Sally Morgan reveals all

Aries 23 Mar – 20 April

BEST BITS Offers of love are highlighted, along with adventures and air travel. Exotic foreign destinations beckon as a holiday of a lifetime is planned with your family. You will be able to juggle your finances in August to make this happen, as you’re extremely capable of achieving your goals.

WATCH OUT FOR A person with dark hair in June, when your ruling planet Mars is in direct motion. They may have something to do with finance and you could be dragged into some kind of scam. Stay guarded in July, and by August things will be looking up. Temptations may appear in late September, but you have the strength to overcome anything!

YOUR BIG BREAK The Full Moon in early April brings you an exciting message about a family celebration to come during August. There is more income heading your way too, as you show your genius talents to those higher up in the company. STAR CELEB Graham Norton

Your recent marriage is creating a deeper bond between the two of you, and during the start of the year your wine range will expand as you create more exciting flavours. A popular theatre tour in October sees you driving all over Britain and Ireland.

Taurus 21 April – 20 May

BEST BITS During January, when the Full Moon is in Cancer, you’re embracing your spiritual side and maybe joining a development group. Celebrations and commitments in March will bring closer family ties, as well as reunions with old friends. These friends will become an important part of your present and future life. Weekends away in the countryside with a partner or close pal will be magical in September and give you plenty of time to relax.

WATCH OUT FOR Temptation heading your way in July. If someone is becoming argumentative, the best thing is to withdraw from the situation and keep your own counsel. Watch out for an important letter in October, as this will bring exciting news from afar.

YOUR BIG BREAK A gathering in May will lead to important negotiations and, by November, you will feel more financially secure, giving you a feeling of great accomplishment. Success is at your feet and a project that you have been working on for a long time has reached fruition. There will be an occasion in your honour – and possibly an award. STAR CELEB Adele

Air travel at the start of the year takes you to the USA for a string of unique concerts. By April, you’re back at home and making future plans with your partner. A new charity, foundation or specialised university may be set up in your name, enabling you to mentor young artists. Late in the year you are feeling extremely creative, and songs for your next album just flow.

Gemini 21 May – 20 Jun

BEST BITS This year is going to feel like a whirlwind, and you’ve achieved something that others thought was impossible. Your company will be in great demand along with your creative input into multiple projects. In October, as Mercury enters Libra, you are finally able to complete the house refurbishments and decorating you have been longing for.

WATCH OUT FOR Burning the candle at both ends. Take time out every now and again to rebuild your energy and wellbeing. Men of different generations could have an altercation – it’s wisest to stay out of any disagreements. A friend or partner is feeling exhausted in September and you may be called on for assistance.

YOUR BIG BREAK This is a truly fantastic year when opportunities appear around every corner. Your spiritual side is highlighted, and dreams will show the way forward. Pick the best of what’s on offer and run with it. Love comes in many forms and you may have multiple options. Choose wisely! STAR CELEB Jamie Oliver

Your new TV series Jamie’s Seasons will be a hit, bringing delicious recipes and seasonal products to the masses. Family life is harmonious and there may be a wedding or engagement in May or June. In September, new creative ideas and visions are at the forefront of your mind.

Cancer 21 Jun – 22 Jul

BEST BITS A house move may be discussed in March, especially if you’re looking to move your family from a town or city to a countryside location. A child may introduce you to someone who very quickly becomes important in your life. This could be a new friendship or a romantic relationship. Tidings of a new addition to the family will bring joy.

WATCH OUT FOR A lady with lightcoloured hair in April, who may try to undermine you in a work situation. You are thoughtful and care about so many friends and family members, but in November you may notice that someone is taking you for granted and not giving anything in return. You may feel that you need to let this friendship go or approach it in a different way.

YOUR BIG BREAK As a quiet but conscientious person, you have great insight and would make an excellent counsellor. There may be a new beginning, which comes at the end of this year on 5 December, while the New Moon is in Sagittarius. It could involve your career, as you are trying to juggle a bit too much. Listen to your intuition, considering all options, and you will know the right path to take. STAR CELEB Benedict Cumberbatch

With The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar due to be released this year, there is no letting up in the demand for your acting skills. As the money comes rolling in during the early summer you are looking towards your wife and family, planning holidays and finding a creative work/life balance, because you’re a dedicated family man. Home renovations take up some time at the end of the year.

Leo 23 Jul – 22 Aug

BEST BITS Travel is on the cards this year, and a vacation to somewhere hot in February offers great food and a chance to unwind. You’re then flying to an exotic destination in June, with new cultures and time spent exploring. In September the Virgo New Moon gives you the strength to express your sensitive side.

WATCH OUT FOR A change at work that will turn out in your favour. As you are dedicated and resourceful, you may even end up in a management position. Some aspects of daily life will move on as you leave other factors behind, and money will come in when you least expect it. Travel to an island will bring you good luck!

YOUR BIG BREAK This year is filled with love, family, friends and a romance equal to none. Poetry, love letters and romantic music all feature, as someone tries to steal your heart in April. Surprises in November will bring an amazing feeling of accomplishment when your hard work is noticed. You will be able to choose the right path. STAR CELEB Jennifer Lopez

A plethora of movie releases and a tour will keep you extremely busy. Redecorating a new property will take your attention in May, but it’ll be a perfect bolthole in October. Your lioness strength is heightened as you make family plans towards the end of the year.

Virgo 23 Aug – 22 Sep

BEST BITS You will enjoy a retreat or spa in March with your closest friends. You’re a perfectionist and always consider your wellbeing and that of others. A new business opportunity in November will set you up for the future, as you may be starting a new venture or turning a hobby into an income. You’re using your intuition in your everyday life, and may meet someone who can teach you to read runes.

WATCH OUT FOR Wasting money on things you don’t really need. If you are looking at buying a greener hybrid or electric vehicle, save as much money as you can in advance and do your research thoroughly. In April, as Mercury enters Taurus, you are in a thoughtful mood and planning an event for your children, grandchildren and relatives.

YOUR BIG BREAK July is a fantastic month for career and business, and there is a special celebration. Although you might feel tied to a situation, there will be victory and reward as well as the chance to lay firm foundations. This could be the year you move in with someone new or make a commitment to an existing relationship. STAR CELEB Joe Wicks

Recognition and a special award are heading your way at the start of this year. Family is so important to you and you are thinking up ways to travel with everyone as you work on your next project. Another book is being planned, and this will enable you to make changes as you diversify into other aspects of health and fitness.

Libra 23 Sep – 23 Oct

BEST BITS A wise older person’s advice will be invaluable in January as you make career choices. In September, as the Sun enters Libra, you could embark on a new form of study to add to your CV. You are extremely creative and this year could be the one to take up a new musical instrument, an art course or start redesigning your wardrobe.

WATCH OUT FOR The magic at the start of the year starting to fade in April when you could feel a little under the weather. Things don’t always go your way to start with, but by giving it a little time you should get the outcome you desire in a few weeks. A new health kick in June could see you retreating from the outside world until you get everything in place. In November you’re finding a way to drop some commitments to concentrate on the things and people you love.

YOUR BIG BREAK An amazing holiday during late July and the beginning of August will give you the time you need to decide on your college evening class or online course. You are able to juggle your finances successfully, saving a little for your new business start-up fund in December. Family is very important to you and you are making extra time for the older generation of the family, along with siblings and cousins, and looking at booking a family trip early next year. STAR CELEB Davina Mccall

Exciting events are in store around Valentine’s Day, as your relationships and home environment go from strength to strength. A holiday early summer brings the family closer together and leaves the past firmly in the past. In August, more career opportunities head your way and choices will need to be made. You will choose the projects that appeal to your core values.

Scorpio 24 Oct – 22 Nov

BEST BITS Travel over water will herald a well-earned break in June, bringing fun and laughter. A year of new beginnings lies ahead for you Scorpio – start something you’ve been meaning to for a while. The universe is happy to support whatever new endeavour you strongly believe in and ideas will appear out of thin air in September, while Mercury, the planet of intellect, is in direct motion. Plant the seeds now.

WATCH OUT FOR Your intuition – you’ve always had a sixth sense when a storm is coming. Check through all of your legal and financial matters and make sure that you are covered for every eventuality in early December, when a contract will be signed.

YOUR BIG BREAK You’re very busy this year completing a project that you have had little time for. A new relationship or friendship comes into your life in September, tugging at your heart strings. Embrace your sensitive side and a legal contract signed in October will bring success towards the end of the year. STAR CELEB Rose Ayling-ellis

A new career beckons after leaving Eastenders as you want to pursue and increase the awareness around deaf culture. This will enable you to achieve your ultimate goal to increase regular subtitles on all TV shows. Your natural passion for dance and endearing personality captivates people and new opportunities will come your way in July, with a new career move in October.

Sagittarius 23 Nov – 22 Dec

BEST BITS What a year this is going to turn out to be! You’re looking forward to the future with motivation and anticipation in January, Sagittarius. You might be considering undertaking a lifetime’s adventure with your partner or perhaps going back into learning for an advanced degree. In February, a creative project fires your imagination and you’ll feel like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, taking your first flight. You finally feel whole, happy and ready to take on the world.

WATCH OUT FOR Friends and family, who are as ever your top priority because they always have your back. You have been experiencing strange dreams and these could hold the key to unlocking all the information and insight throughout your subconscious. Someone in your family or friendship group can interpret the meanings of your dreams for you, and this will be truly enlightening in May.

YOUR BIG BREAK An unexpected message or call around 21 March, when the New Moon is in Aries, will offer you the chance to get your creative or spiritual juices flowing. There may be the chance to start playing an instrument in a band or the opportunity to collaborate in some written works, which could be published or even performed on stage. Give yourself the freedom to create something ambitious. STAR CELEB Lorraine Kelly

A book or journal is occupying your mind in January and you are balancing your job with the things you love most. A new business idea with your husband is set to make waves in the industry in early May. After such a busy time, you are thinking about your wellbeing and planning a break in December. Clearing out the clutter of life is a must in November, as the workload increases again.

Capricorn 23 Dec – 20 Jan

BEST BITS You are independent, but also very romantic, Capricorn. This could lead to relationship and family changes. You want to find the right balance between love and life, but sometimes it seems so hard to achieve. Trust that everything will work itself out quicker than you thought when romance arrives in early April and in late November. Commitments are likely to be made early December, as Venus enters Libra.

WATCH OUT FOR An interview for a new job or position in May, which could turn out to be all that you hoped for. This is important to you and you will want to make the most of this chance, so think about your answers before you give them. February could bring about a puzzling plumbing issue.

YOUR BIG BREAK February is an exceptionally good month to have the ultimate clearout – maybe get to work on the loft, spare room or shed. Try not to let others influence you in decisions of the heart with regards to some sentimental items that you would rather hang onto. You know the value of memories, but one item may turn out to be worth a lot more than you ever imagined. STAR CELEB John Legend

Plans are being made for your show at London’s Royal Albert Hall in April, and you’re juggling the preparations alongside your recently released album. It’s a busy year with your growing family and a new venture. Early autumn your thoughts turn to your health, while October brings ideas, composition and a new business, which involves a great deal of travel by road.

Aquarius 21 Jan – 19 Feb

BEST BITS Spontaneous and impulsive, you’re very good at improvising as you go. To others, it might seem risky or uncomfortable, but you don’t let that bother your plans in February. You don’t need a rigid set of guidelines because winging it is right up your alley. This year you will embrace success, even when you succeed by the skin of your teeth. A big career move is likely!

WATCH OUT FOR Surprises and sudden messages from unexpected sources in June. A family member will astonish you with a relic from the past, as they have found something while researching your family tree. It turns out that you are related to someone of high status – maybe even a king or queen. Relationships hot up in August when the Full Moon is in your sign.

YOUR BIG BREAK You may be feeling especially charitable this year, and you’re keen to help others who are struggling. This is a time to go inwards and be practical, as your advice is much appreciated. June is a good time to set up a wellbeing charity or community interest company. Keep an eye out for anyone trying to reach you or a family member who is quieter than usual. STAR CELEB Alison Hammond

Your new relationship is hotting up around February, with future plans being made. However, your career is taking off too, making this one of your most demanding years. Your workload increases in March and there is a flow of choices throughout the year. The relationships around you are also becoming more demanding and you’re finding it hard to accommodate both. Adventure could be on the cards, as you travel the globe for a new TV series about something that touches you very deeply.

Pisces 20 Feb – 20 Mar

BEST BITS This year there is positive energy in the air. During January, focus on your home and nurture your environment. You may feel like sprucing up the house in May – adding some new decor can help you feel more balanced. Think about the colours you wear and bring them into your home.

WATCH OUT FOR Inspiration to strike! Some of the most successful ideas start as scribbles on the back of a matchbox. At the end of July, as Mercury enters Leo, an idea you are nurturing becomes clearer. What do you need to do to turn this idea into a big business? News will come via email or letter in August.

YOUR BIG BREAK Making some small changes to your image in January could put you at the centre of your social circle and gain you extra attention at a party in March. Your new look will be a great boost to your confidence. There is talk of a house move in December, as plans are put in place for 2024. STAR CELEB Brenda Edwards

A great deal of love and healing surrounds you as you move forward with your life. Loose Women and your other TV opportunities are keeping you busy with travel in June and July. You’ll be approached about a new pilot documentary, but you may be tied to another contract. A delay could go in your favour as multiple offers come in, and a large family gathering is being arranged in December.
