Your stars today
Your stars today
Aries | March 20 - April 18
It seems somebody's made a calculated effort to fool you. While you were aware that certain things didn't make sense, you brushed off those concerns. In actual fact their aim wasn't to deceive you. Rather, they were hoping that by ignoring certain facts they wished weren't true, somehow, magically, they'd change.
Taurus | April 19- May 19
Although the New Moon took place a few days ago. you're still unsure whether the ideas proposed then were actually worth pursuing or merely intriguing. The only way to find out is to give them a try. Risky as this seems for you. a cautious earth sign, it's a risk worth taking.
Gemini | May 20 - June 19
Most Geminis rarely lose their temper, and if so. often those theatrics are more play-acting than genuine anger. Yet at the moment, your ruler Mercury is at odds with the volatile Mars. As a result your feelings are already heightened, so much you could over-react to issues that ordinarily, you'd barely notice.
Cancer | June 20 - July 21
Understandably. you've been rather hoping that certain potentially explosive matters would resolve themselves. They won't. But by no means does that mean conflicts are inescapable. Rather, you'll need to tackle issues one by one, and in a manner that encourages a forthtight exchange of ideas but equally, keeps the peace.
Leo | July 22 - August 21
Allowing those you disagree with to make decisions may seen colossally unwise. Yet it's probably the bat way to avoid lengthy and complicated battles ova these matters. Encourage certain individuals to get involved, and they'll soon realise how wrong they were. Once they do, you can begin realistic discussions.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Sidestepping already complicated matters would be difficult at any tine. Now, however, the situation is being overshadowed by the dash between your ruler Mercury and temperamental Mars. True, this puts everybody on edge. But happily, it forces those who've previously avoided even acknowledging issues to get involved and discuss them.
Libra | September 22 – October 21
Yet again one particular individual has disappointed you. causing you considerable inconvenience. However, you're hesitant about commenting or complaining because you assume they're struggling with something, so must make sudden changes. Do a little investigation. The odds at good you'll discover they're both disorganised and taking advantage of your good nature.
Scorpio | October 22 – November 20
Although Mercury's retrograde cycle ended in late May, you're still dealing with the fallout from the confusion it brings. This is, first, because it accented dose alliances, so being in accord is vital. But also, the minor errors typical of this period kicked up matters you've been ignoring or were unaware of.
Sagittarius | November 21 – December 20
Don't be surprised if, over the coming week or so. you're disillusioned by certain events or possibly, individuals. While the source of these problems may vary, the core issue is that because things weren't adequately discussed when plans were initially organised, there's confusion now about who's responsible for what.
Capricorn | December 21- January 19
Few things run counter to your instincts, as a cautious and thorough Capricorn. more than agreeing to a commitment when short of facts. Yet making the best of certain ideas or offers means doing exactly that The solution? Do what other signs do, make halfway commitments. This leaves you room to negotiate.
Aquarius | January 20- February 18
The last thing you want to do is struggle through the decision-making process in an already complex situation, only to face changes Judging by the current planetary setup, these aren't just likely, they're inevitable. Knowing that regard whatever you organise as tentative, which means you needn't bother with burdensome details.
Pisces | February 19 - March 19
There is no easy way to say certain things, especially to those who hear only what they want to. Yet if progress is to be made, problems must be discussed frankly and in detail. Don't give up. The more frequently you raise these, the more swiftly that discussion will take place.
