Your Stars Today
Aries | March 20 – April 18
While ordinarily you’d have every right to be short-tempered with somebody who simply hasn’t bothered to deal with their end of mutual responsibilities, ask a few questions first. Judging by the current planetary setup and the complications they’ll lead to, not only are misunderstandings of this nature likely, they’re inevitable.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
Nobody would blame you for thinking others are sidestepping the facts, if not out and out deceiving you. But these situations are more complex than they seem. There’s only one way to end this confusion, and it’s to investigate until you discover when, and how, these problems first arose.
Gemini | May 20 – June 19
Ask anybody if you’re bossy and the answer would be no. Yet now that your ruler Mercury has moved to accent close alliances, which means others are in charge, you’re uneasy if not actually annoyed. Usually you’re able to charm others into doing what you want. Now that simply isn’t possible.
Cancer | June 20 – July 21
Sometimes minor disagreements are no more than that. But at the moment they could be the key to issues you thought you’d just have to live with. Once you begin talking things through, you’ll realise that the gulf between your views and those of others isn’t as wide as you feared.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
As recent experience has proved, life would be a lot easier if you could just tackle and deal with minor issues before they grow and become major ones. However, one particularly complex matter hasn’t yet surfaced enough you can even begin to discuss it openly. Your only choice is to wait and watch.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Heart to heart discussions can do wonders to lift your spirits, at least at the time. However, now looking back on what was said or agreed originally, and what’s actually realistic, you realise these ideas need to be revisited, and discussed from a more practical perspective than the first time around.
Libra | September 22 – October 21
Walking away from an upsetting situation without at least making an effort to restore harmony is nearly impossible for you, as a Libra. Still, recently, you’ve had to do exactly that. And several times. Challenging as this is, deep down you realise this isn’t the moment to talk things through.
Scorpio | October 22 – November 20
You’re all for teamwork, especially in situations that influence everybody in some way. Yet you’re still unsure about the judgement of certain individuals. Don’t hesitate to raise these issues, even for a moment. The fact is, others will be relieved to discuss matters frankly and you’ll be impressed by their openness.
Sagittarius | November 21 – December 20
Few things are more annoying than the discovery somebody has been deceiving you. Of course there are the feelings of disillusionment you’ll have to contend with. But, equally, before you can proceed, you’ll need to gather facts from someone you can rely on or, ideally, the individual in question.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 19
Having both analysed certain frustrating situations and the people involved, two facts have surfaced. First, those whose support you need aren’t as enthusiastic as you’d hoped. And second, you haven’t kept the individuals in question updated. In acknowledging that, you’ve both spotted the problem and an easy solution. You need only take action.
Aquarius | January 20 – February 18
Usually, obstacles are best tackled the moment they arise, mostly because it’s easier to dislodge them before they settle in. Don’t be surprised, however, if some prove to be more complicated than they first seemed. If so, you’ll need to be both persistent and willing to delve into unexpected issues.
Pisces | February 19 – March 19
When you make plans, it’s after a great deal of both research and thought. The result is a relief to you but often impresses others too. However, judging by the unsettling planetary activity involving your ruler Neptune between now and the end of November, even carefully crafted arrangements are unlikely to last.
