Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



Usually, when you’ve had a disagreement, you’ll speak your mind then move on, so swiftly it’s gone the next day. But you can’t seem to shake your irritation about one particular clash last week. It’s no surprise. This isn’t about a difference of opinion but, rather, a deep, fundamental and persistent issue.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



While one of your greatest virtues is your capacity to commit to a person or future vision, and to maintain that commitment through thick and thin, it’s time to review at least one of these. Either circumstances have changed or your priorities have. Whatever the case, a serious rethink is vital.

Gemini | May 20 – June 19



The general opinion is that you’re easygoing and, when it comes to differences, by no means stubborn. Or that’s the case in most situations. However, certain matters about which you have strong feelings are now in transition and you’re doing all you can to delay, if not prevent, those changes.

Cancer | June 20 – July 21



Only days ago, when you brought a cycle of difficult but productive decision making to an end, did you feel able to relax. Which means you’re not exactly delighted about developments that mean rethinking things. Until you begin, and start to explore several thrilling options you were entirely unaware of.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



Most Leos are unfailingly generous with loved ones, family and close friends. This is hugely admirable. Yet, recently, it’s caused you problems. In fact, somebody’s figured out how to make you feel obliged to do them favours, and in ways you wouldn’t usually, even for those closest. Stop this now. It’s a con.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



It isn’t that you intended to be secretive but, clearly, others simply didn’t get the point of what you’ve been trying to get across. Waste no time attempting to figure out where you went wrong and talk things over as if you’ve never previously discussed them. It will be easier and less confusing.

Libra | September 22 – October 21



Sometimes minor issues are exactly that, differences of such little significance they’ll soon be forgotten. But those you’re facing now need attention, and soon, or they’ll grow into far more serious problems. Knowing this, don’t succumb to the temptation to put off dealing with them. Tackle them right away.

Scorpio | October 22 – November 20



Recently, discussions have been complicated by the need to deal with tricky matters frankly, yet take into account the delicate egos of certain individuals. While you’ve handled this brilliantly, you’ll be relieved to note those potentially troublesome issues have been resolved, at least to the extent you can now speak about them openly.

Sagittarius | November 21 – December 20



Usually, you’re able to be forthright in even very complex situations yet not step on anybody’s toes. But not only is what you’re actually dealing with complex, others are on edge, so much they could easily misinterpret your words or intentions. For now, both say and do the minimum.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 19



Having ridden out the past week’s unsettled events, you’re eager to gather facts and, as important, turn unstable situations into lasting plans. Wise as that may seem, things remain in disarray, enough you’re better off thinking in terms of planning one day at a time. Regard anything more as a tentative arrangement.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 18



Others are eager to offer advice. However, in the situation in question, you see absolutely no options but to continue with things as they are. Don’t be so sure. Judging by promising aspects to your ruler Uranus, this week and next, timely and appealing ideas or opportunities are coming your way.

Pisces | February 19 – March 19



Yet again you’re on the verge of succumbing to somebody’s sob story. While your capacity for compassion is an admirable trait, it can mean you focus more on others’ dramas than your own activities, needs or requirements. You’re already wary. Trust those concerns. Time will reveal how wise they are.
