Aries | March 20 – April 18
There are many ways to say the single word ‘no’. Currently, certain individuals seem determined to reject every option or idea and do things their way. Still, don’t give up. They’ll listen to reason, but you must heed and respond to their concerns. Once that’s done, the rest will be easy.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
This hardly seems the ideal time to walk away from arrangements you’ve been struggling for ages to bring together. But other ideas or offers have just appeared and aren’t just more practical, they’d require less effort. Yet you’ve mixed feelings. This is that so-called stubborn side of your Taurus nature in action.
Gemini | May 20 – June 20
Not only do you enjoy a lively exchange of ideas, you always learn from what others say, even if they’re upset. However, now that your ruler Mercury is retrograde, your intentions could be misunderstood and, worse, others could be confused. That being the case, you’d regret basing decisions on what’s been said.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
Few things are more difficult than watching those you’re close to, professionally or personally, being at odds with each other. However, these issues are between them, and are theirs to deal with. Tempting as it is to act as go-between, it wouldn’t help and, in fact, you could soon regret it.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
As much as you’d like to get plans for the near future settled, every time you try, something changes. This is no surprise. In fact, between now and this Friday’s encounter between your ruler the Sun and the planet of the unexpected, Uranus, unanticipated events will become almost routine.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
By no means are you rigid in your thinking. Yet once you make up your mind about something, that’s that. Still, judging by the current planetary emphasis on broadening your horizons, you’re urged to at least revisit certain experiences from the past. Circumstances have changed and, more important, so have you.
Libra | September 22 – October 22
With both your ruler Venus and, now, the communication planet Mercury retrograde, confusion is inevitable. Unsettling and, often, annoying as situations of this nature are, they also offer a rare opportunity to tackle, and deal with, complex issues and misunderstandings, past and present. However, you’ll have to make the first move.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Facts may be facts. But as is always the case when Mercury is retrograde, what seemed reliable elements of your way of living or working are shifting, often dramatically. While, logically speaking, you’d have every right to battle these, your instincts are correctly telling you change is long overdue.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
When the practical Saturn moved into Sagittarius in 2015, you began a demanding but ultimately rewarding cycle of personal growth. Even more, you’ve faced practical issues in a variety of forms and learnt a great deal from each. Bear this in mind when similar matters arise over the next few days.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
Ordinarily you’ve a knack for distinguishing mere confusion from the variety of misunderstandings that could lead to serious problems. But with Mercury going retrograde, it won’t be simple or straightforward. Knowing that, explore even seemingly unimportant issues, whatever their nature. They could lead to insights as unexpected as, ultimately, they’ll prove profitable.
Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
Being a clever and quick thinking air sign, you sometimes get involved in disputes over what should be simple matters, only to realise the person you’re talking to thinks they’re well informed but is, in truth, lacking vital information. Once you realise that, you’ll discretely fill them in on the facts.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
It’s rare that you’re stubborn. Yet when issues involve certain individuals or ventures you care about passionately, you’re not just determined, you can be fierce. Still, judging by the current planetary setup, it’s worth double-checking your facts. The odds are good you’ll discover certain worrying rumours could be true.
