Horoscope: June 20, 2016

Your stars today

Aries | March 20 – April 19



Setbacks aren’t just annoying, they’re forcing you to relinquish control over crucial decisions. Worrying as that seems now, you’ll soon realise that certain individuals aren’t just better informed about these matters, the actual situations are more complex than you realised, and they’ll have the time necessary to deal with them.

Taurus | April 20 – May 20



Things have been moving swiftly, so much you’ve been unable to discuss your concerns about changes, and still less investigate them. Now that your ruler Venus has moved to accent these matters, however, you’ll find you’re able to talk them through, make decisions and take action, all in quick succession.

Gemini | May 21 – June 20



While there’s no avoiding recent rather disillusioning developments, by no means do you need to shoulder the burden for them. Instead, discuss these in detail. Show interest, make suggestions but stop there. You’ll soon realise that others are responsible, which means it’s their job to deal with them.

Cancer | June 21 – July 22



The rare combination of the Full Moon in Sagittarius and the Sun’s move into Cancer, less than twelve hours later, both heightens your feelings and boosts your spirits. However, it’s intense, enough that, urgent as things seem, for now, you’re better off exploring your options. Major decisions can and should wait.

Leo | July 23 – August 22



Sometimes it’s not until emotions about already tense situations become heightened that you discover what you truly care about and, equally, what doesn’t really matter to you at all. This is especially the case now. Knowing that, make decisions based on what you feel, then put those decisions into action, and swiftly.

Virgo | August 23 – September 22



Unsettling and, possibly, upsetting as certain recent clashes were, they’re really not yours to deal with. Deep down you know this. It’s just you fear others will make unwise decisions and complicate matters even more. They might. And if they do, they’ll learn essential and lasting lessons from those mistakes.

Libra | September 23 – October 22



Tempting as it is to try to sidestep potentially troublesome changes, these are nothing new. They’ve been taking place for ages, but in stages. Now, however, they’ve reached a point at which you’ll need to get involved. The sooner you do, the more swiftly you’ll understand their nature and direction.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



Four weeks ago complex matters involving your finances or the use of your resources, that is, your time or even ideas, reached a turning point. Try as you might, things remained unsettled. The actual foundation on which arrangements are based has itself been shifting. Finally, however, this slows, enough decisions are possible.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 21



The combination of the emotionally intense Sagittarius Full Moon and powerful, if challenging, planetary activity suggests you’re in for a bit of a rollercoaster ride. Once you realise that’s the case, instead of struggling to rein in the dramatic events taking place, you’ll recognise them as the breakthroughs they are.

Capricorn | December 22 – January 19



Tempting as it is to focus on finding a way to confront one particularly difficult individual, it’s not worth the effort. The real challenge isn’t disentangling issues, it’s acknowledging that, no matter what you say, they’ll object. And that’s because they’re a bit deranged, and never agree with anybody.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 17



As an Aquarius, you see no point in criticising others because their views differ from yours. However, from time to time you must deal with those who regard this as a legitimate variety of conversation. Forget about attempts to change the subject. The only real solution is to absent yourself.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



While you’d have every right to be upset about the deceptive approach one particular individual has taken to certain already complicated matters, it will only make things worse. Taking this personally will distract you from what’s most important, which is getting the situation in question dealt with, once and for all.
