Your stars today

Aries | March 20 – April 19



It’s not so much that your mind changes. It’s that undertaking them often means disentangling yourself from arrangements you rather hoped you could just forget. You can now. But if you don’t withdraw from these, and officially, there’s every chance they’ll arise in the future, and at the worst possible time.

Taurus | April 20 – May 20



This is one of those complex periods during which even the simplest of discussions could lead to misunderstandings. It has nothing to do with Mercury but, rather, is because certain individuals refuse to accept the facts, despite your efforts to explain. For now, patience is your only real option.

Gemini | May 21 – June 20



Of the twelve signs, Gemini is amongst the most inquisitive. Yet even you are foxed by certain complex situations. This is as much because of the individuals involved, and their particular quirks, as the actual circumstances in question. They’ve brilliant ideas to offer but you won’t always recognise them, at least initially.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21.



There are times when the facts need to be discussed in full, and in depth. This is not one of those times. With things moving so swiftly and certain individuals unsure about their position and priorities, you’re better off discussing the big picture. And those details? Tackle them next week.

Leo |  July 22 – August 22



Dealing with details may not be exciting. In fact, you’ll often put off such matters until events force you to tackle them. Now, however, they’re not only important, what you learn in the process of examining and handling them could prove to be crucial, especially when making decisions, in a few days’ time.

Virgo | August 23 – September 22



Don’t make the mistake of assuming that if you admit you got certain things wrong, others will think you weren’t paying enough attention to the details. The fact is, few individuals are as thorough as you, so they regard such errors as an everyday matter. Make the necessary corrections but say nothing.

Libra | September 23 – October 22



Every Libra is born with a powerful instinct about when certain matters should be avoided and, equally, when they need to be raised. While you quite rightly sense that one particular issue should, indeed, be sidestepped for now, others disagree. Encourage discussion. This will distract them until the moment’s right.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



This hardly seems the ideal time to rethink fundamental elements of your domestic setup or activities out in the world. But between the New Moon, a few days ago, and the Full Moon in mid-August, both of which accent these matters, changes aren’t just inevitable, they’re actually long overdue.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



As a Sagittarius, you’re an optimist by nature. You rarely think of this until you run into somebody who’s turned doubt into an art. They complain about how things go wrong all the time. Listening to them, you can only think that, given how negative they are, it’s really no surprise.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 19



Of the twelve signs, you’re usually the first to spot an exciting challenge and, equally, the first to figure out how best to tackle it. However, at the moment you’re overwhelmed by one or two complex situations. Be patient. You’ll conquer these, but need to gather facts and think things through.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 17



By no means are you a control freak. On the contrary, you delight in encouraging everybody from family and friends to colleagues to learn to look after their needs and interests. However, the slap dash approach one particular individual is taking worries you. Still, it’s their responsibly. Leave them to it.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



There are all sorts of questions. At the moment you’re urged to think carefully about what the individual who’s doing the asking has in mind. While usually the objective is finding out facts or, possibly, seeking your opinion, they could just as well be chatting, and have little interest in your actual views.
