Usually, you make decisions swiftly. But recently you’ve avoided committing to certain arrangements. Judging by the powerful link between your ruler Mars and the planet of focus and achievement, Saturn, the time has come not only to commit, but to take action. Wait any longer and events will force your hand.

Obviously, watching one particular arrangement you’ve struggled to organise come undone is painful. Yet, deep down, you’ve always known there were no guarantees, and that in investing your time, effort and, possibly, heart in it, you were taking a risk. It’s not working out. Cut your losses now, while you can easily.

Generally, when asked for your views, you’ll reflect on matters then tell others your conclusions. However, certain situations are far more complex than you realise. As a result, even seemingly unimportant suggestions could get you in hot water. For now, wait, watch and keep your thoughts to yourself.

The odds are good you’ve already tried every way you can think of to confront one particular individual about their increasingly annoying activities. The real issue is, they’re perfectly aware their actions are causing upset. That is their objective. There’s only one solution and that’s to ignore them.
Leo | July 22 – August 21

The adage says ‘there’s no right way to do something wrong! Yet you’re facing a situation in which, worthwhile as your objective is, certain individuals remain firmly opposed. Tempting as it is to try to justify your efforts, say nothing. Instead, allow the success of your efforts to testify on your behalf.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21

Every year, the Sun’s move into Virgo marks the month of your birthday. Yet with your ruler Mercury going retrograde on the 30th, and positioned in your sign, the period will be as changeable as, ultimately, it will be informative. Knowing that, explore absolutely every idea or offer that comes your way.
Libra | September 22 – October 21

Urgent as discussions seem, you’re not only urged to wait and watch, do so and you’ll realise you’re lacking vital information. What’s more, you’re unclear what questions need to be asked, at least at the moment. Discuss your concerns and you’ll soon realise others are also short of facts.
Scorpio | October 22 – November 20

Although your views on certain financial, business or practical matters are clear, that doesn’t mean you’re ready to discuss them with anybody else. However, you’ll need to do exactly that, and within days. If you can’t say it all at once, it’s perfectly alright to take it in stages.
Sagittarius | November 21 – December 20

In your mind, there’s no question what’s right and, equally, what’s wrong. Yet because you dislike others imposing their values on anybody else, you’re uncomfortable about airing your views regarding such matters. Yet you must. Remain silent and certain individuals will assume you don’t care when, in fact, you do. And deeply.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 19

Somebody seems to feel that if they aren’t heavy-handed in their approach to certain already tricky issues, their ideas or intentions will be misunderstood. Knowing that, try not to take their aggressive talk or forthright demands too seriously. Focus on the actual dilemma and how it can best be resolved.
Aquarius | January 20 – February 18

As a freedom-loving Aquarius, you dislike being told what to do. Consequently, you have a healthy respect for others’ independence, even if their decisions are unwise. However, if you don’t tell somebody where they’re going wrong, they’ll soon encounter serious problems. As much as you dislike interfering, in this case, it’s justified.
Pisces | February 19 – March 19

Disturbing as the realisation that somebody is trying to fool you seems, they’re convinced they’ll succeed. What’s even more bizarre is that you’re rather hoping you can ignore their antics. Do that, and they’ll not only assume you don’t mind, their behaviour will get worse. Take a tough line, and now.
