Horoscope: March 23, 2017

Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



Obviously, you’re eager to turn exciting ideas into solid plans, and those into action. Still, you’re urged to take it slowly. True, this is out of character for you, an impatient fire sign. Despite that, by Tuesday’s Aries New Moon, and the accompanying fresh perspective, you’ll be glad you waited.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



Rarely do you find anybody so irritating you entirely abandon your Taurean charm, get involved in a verbal battle and, worse, insist on having the final word. The irony is, the individual in question is so self-centred, they’re ignoring what you’re saying anyway, and so won’t be upset in the least.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20



Judging by the clash between your ruler Mercury and the suspicious Pluto, the next few days are likely to be complex. While, on one hand, others will be anxious about certain matters, you could find yourself worrying, too.  Address this but say no more until the mood’s calmer, by the weekend.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21



It’s nothing new. Often, when longstanding arrangements must be rethought, if not substantially altered, there’ll be complaints. Mostly, they’re from those individuals who’ll moan about anything that takes them out of their comfort zone. Say nothing to them. This leaves you time to address those remaining, few, genuine concerns

Leo | July 22 – August 21



There’s no wrong way to enjoy life. Yet somebody seems convinced you need their advice regarding certain activities or passions. If it’s possible, simply cut all ties with the individual in question. If not, make it clear you refuse to discuss the matter, and if it’s raised, be firm.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



No matter how much you’ve thought things through, and how hard you’ve worked to gather the facts, it would be unwise to assume you’re completely up to date on certain tricky situations. That being the case, begin any discussions with an inquisitive approach. You’ll be surprised, if not shocked, what you learn.

Libra | September 22 – October 22



For several weeks you put considerable effort into sidestepping discussions you feared would touch on tricky issues. Since then, however, most of these have been examined and dealt with in depth anyway. Having come this far, there’s no better time than the present to raise and tackle those few that remaining issues.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



Somebody you care about has been taken advantage of, often and in a range of situations. For ages you’ve encouraged them to speak up. Now they are, and with you as well as others. This comes as a surprise but one that, when you become accustomed to it, will delight you.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



Although you’re not by nature suspicious, the manoeuvres of one particular individual have caused you concern. Worse, you’ve seen them be economical with the truth regarding others, so know they could try the same with you. Discuss these worries with them. This ensures they realise you’re keeping an eye on them.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18



Not only is planning ahead a virtue, for Capricorns it can help remedy anxiety about the unknown. Still, during unsettled periods such as this is, even the simplest of arrangements is likely to come undone. Knowing that, ensure whatever you organise is flexible enough to ride out any such surprises.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17



When you look back on this unsettled period, you’ll recognise how much you learnt and managed to accomplish. At the moment, however, it seems you’re juggling too many obligations, all of which are changing, and getting little done. For the moment, it’s about what you undo, not what you do.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



To you, what you’re about to say is just plain rude. But from the perspective of the individual you’re dealing with, you’ll finally be addressing issues clearly. Actually, it seems that you’re about to encounter the same issue in a number of situations. If in doubt, therefore, be frank. Overly so.
