Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



Urgent as certain decisions seem, they’re not. On the contrary, those feelings things need to be dealt with and swiftly are more about your mood than the actual situations in question. These, and there are several, are still being discussed. That, therefore, means there really is no rush.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



Exciting as progress in once-challenging situations may be, this comes at a cost. And that is letting go of arrangements that have been a point of pride. Still, you must admit that, recently, they’ve been a source of concern. While saying farewell to these won’t be easy, you know it’s best.

Gemini | May 20 – June 19



Others are pressing you about plans, both for certain practical matters and the future. While you’ve all sorts of ideas, you’re feeling unsure what’s wise. That’s probably more about Monday’s Full Moon than the actual situation in question. If so, the anxieties you’re wrestling with should vanish within a few days.

Cancer | June 20 – July 21



When you first decided to ignore potentially troublesome issues, you felt it was for the best. Not only were others uncomfortable even acknowledging the matters in question, you had no suggestions to offer. But now you do. Don’t be shy about making these. They’ll be received with open arms.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



Judging by the recent focus on the domestic angle of your chart, you’ve faced and dealt with numerous concerns. Now your attention shifts to establishing a balance between these and your activities out in the world, one in which feelings and facts reach a peak at the time of Tuesday’s Full Moon.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



To you, as a Virgo and an earth sign, proof is important. You prefer to have facts enough to weigh decisions. But the matters you’re currently dealing with are in flux, which means even seemingly solid facts won’t last long. This means basing decisions as much on your instincts as hard facts.

Libra | September 22 – October 21



Sooner or later you’ll to have to take a tough line with somebody who keeps making, then backing out of, promises. Warn them this is causing you problems and that at a certain point, when your ruler Venus meets the uncompromising Pluto, later this month, you’ll have to draw the line.

Scorpio | October 22 – November 20



Long ago you learnt that satisfying as having the last word in an argument can be, it can result in tensions with those whose support you need. Bear this in mind now, in the run up to Monday’s emotionally intense Full Moon, which accents close alliances both at home and at work.

Sagittarius | November 21 – December 20



Few things are more frustrating for you, as an enthusiastic and forthright Sagittarius, than being in situations where for reasons of tact or strategy, you’re unable to say what’s on your mind. But you’ve had no choice. Now that Mercury’s moving into your sign, suddenly all of those constraints will vanish.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 19



The move by Venus, which accents both your financial assets and those relationships you value most, into Capricorn, indicates it’s time to shift your focus. This isn’t about analysis, but delving into your feelings and instincts regarding these matters that are fundamental to both your practical and emotional wellbeing.

Aquarius | January 20 – February 18



Every Full Moon brings feelings and situations to a peak. However, because Monday’s accents the structure of your life, discussions about changes in your domestic setup or activities out in the world could come to a head. These have needed attention for ages. It’s just you didn’t know what to do.

Pisces | February 19 – March 19



Watching certain longstanding arrangements come undone is worrying. While you’re tempted to shore these up, your instincts are correctly telling you that either these must be substantially changed or go. For now, explore every idea and option. And be patient. By late November you’ll know what’s best, but not before.
