Your stars today
Your stars today. STOCK IMAGE
Aries | March 20 – April 19
Currently, most obstacles require no more than a clever, and quick, remedy. But one or two are far more complex than you realise. So much that if you take action without having thought everything through in detail, you’ll only complicate matters. Do things thoroughly and you need do them only once.
Taurus | April 20 – May 20
One of your greatest virtues is your patience. While there are times when you’ll be upset if you’re faced with enforced delays, once things are explained to you, there’s no problem. That’s the case now. Ironically, the only real issue you’ll encounter is the impatience of certain individuals around you.
Gemini | May 21 – June 20
You’ve a gift for figuring out ways around the kind of problems that overwhelm others. Yet even you are stumped by several seriously tricky situations. This is no surprise. These are far more complex than you realise. The deeper you probe, the clearer it will be there are no quick fixes.
Cancer | June 21 – July 22
Nobody would blame you for walking away from a situation that is itself problematic but which, worse, involves somebody who’s irrational. While finding your way around these difficulties will require persistence, what you learn in the process won’t just be helpful, it will resolve several other tricky situations as well.
Leo | July 23 – August 22
Ordinarily you’re the one who’s encouraging others to speak up and say exactly what’s on their mind. But now it’s you who’s holding back. It’s not that you’re being secretive as much as you dread the dramas that even the mention of certain issues would unleash. Possibly. Still, these can’t be avoided.
Virgo | August 23 – September 22
Life would be wonderful if you could make decisions and organise plans with the precision you, as a Virgo, prefer. But things just aren’t like that, especially with your ruler Mercury’s retrograde cycle just having come to an end. Take advantage of the flexibility you have to explore without making commitments.
Libra | September 23 – October 22
Although, when describing you, others would probably mention your charm, there’s no mistaking your determination to achieve the goals you set, both for yourself and together with others. Now that you’re encountering obstacles, however, that charm will be exchanged for a sheer, unshakable focus rarely seen by others.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Early in the year Mars, the planet of action, energy and courage, moved into Scorpio. While it departed in March, it’s been retrograde, so is returning for a long stay, until 2 August. This will give you a chance to rethink past decisions and pursue plans that previously didn’t work out.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 21
It’s clear certain complex and potentially troublesome discussions can’t be put off for much longer. But you still don’t really know what to say. You’re not only short of facts, you’re unsure how you feel about these matters. Do some serious investigation. What you learn will clarify your thinking, possibly overnight.
Capricorn | December 22 – January 19
While the Full Moon, a week ago, called attention to the need to make substantial changes in once-straightforward arrangements, you still haven’t figured out what to do. Take it slowly. The New Moon, on 5 June, which accents these matters, will introduce the fresh perspective necessary to take things forward.
Aquarius | January 20 – February 17
Early in the year you took part in intriguing discussions regarding changes in your way of living or working, but nothing came of them. Now that the forthright Mars has returned to accent this portion of your chart, not only will those talks pick up where they left off, they’ll proceed swiftly.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Life’s been demanding lately, both in terms of obligations and exciting, if distracting, activities. However, with the planetary focus shifting to new ideas and broadening your horizons, you’ll need to find time to explore the intriguing options that are already coming your way, and will continue to for the next few months.
