Your Stars Today
Aries | March 20 – April 18
As much as you’d like to take advantage of all the ideas and offers coming your way, even now it’s clear that’s not possible. If you can’t actually let go of some, at least consider it. You’ll soon recognise there aren’t enough hours in the day to make the best of them all.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
For days certain individuals have been telling you how excited they are about new ideas. You’re less sure they’re worth pursuing. While you’re wise to question these, there’s always something to be learnt, even if you don’t take things further. Once you learn more, however, you might change your mind.
Gemini | May 20 – June 20
While many struggle to keep longstanding plans as they are, you don’t care. In fact, you’ve several ideas and options you’re eager to explore. Sadly, not everybody is as enthusiastic. If this means investigating on your own for a while, do it. You’ll enjoy it far more than you anticipate.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
The powerful link between Saturn and the inventive Uranus may not be until next week, but you and the world around you will be aware of the amazing combination of shakeups and opportunities this is triggering. For now, explore everything, show interest in what seems to be worthwhile but commit to nothing.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
A few days ago, your ruler the Sun formed a rare and powerful alliance with Pluto, the planet of truth, power struggles and transformation. While you’ll already have experienced some of the changes it’s triggered, other events and even more significant, insights are still coming your way. Be ready.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Leaving others to make decisions that are their responsibility, but which you’re unsure they’re equipped to make, can be worrying. But the fact is, these matters are theirs to deal with and they won’t necessarily welcome your advice. Busy yourself elsewhere. Actually, there are a number of situations that require your attention.
Libra | September 22 – October 22
You don’t consider yourself a perfectionist. But when it comes to arranging things with those who you’re close to or, equally, those you know are troublesome, you can become obsessive about the details. However, with things moving so swiftly, there’s no time to even think of such matters.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
The last minute ideas or offers coming your way are exciting but the timing isn’t ideal. After all, you’ve just reorganised everything to accommodate new, if unsettling, plans. Still, during this cycle of often dramatic developments, this won’t be the last of such changes. The disruption won’t continue but the benefits will.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
For you, as a fire sign, the gap between hearing about something that needs to be done, and actually doing it can be as brief as a few minutes. Thus those who insist you slow your pace irritate you. But these individuals are right. What’s exciting now will just get better.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
When making new plans, you work hard to balance your time and loyalties with existing arrangements and the people involved. While this is wise, judging by the intensity of what’s involved, you’ll probably need to cut back on some of what you’re doing or commit to, and soon.
Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
Don’t be surprised if you’re suddenly inspired to conduct a major clear out of your possessions, your diary or even your pursuits and objectives. This is related to the powerful planetary activity involving the practical Saturn and your ruler Uranus, in a week’s time. The clearer your mind, the better.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Forget about convincing those who’ll only pay attention to hard facts to heed what your instincts say or, indeed, to listen to their own feelings. While their refusal to acknowledge this side of their nature is depriving them of rich experiences, they’ll discover them when the time’s right and not a moment before.
