Your Stars Today
Aries | March 20 – April 18
The last thing you’re in the mood to do is discuss differences with others. You’ve done that and got nowhere, so are ready to move on and deal with things yourself. Don’t. Because everybody is short of facts, the only way you’ll achieve anything is by discussing issues, then working out solutions together.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
Being ruled by the gracious Venus, you try to find a harmonious way of winning over certain tricky individuals. At the moment, however, you’ve no choice but to confront them about matters where you disagree. If you’re to strike a lasting accord, you’ve no choice but to talk things through frankly.
Gemini | May 20 – June 20
One of the ways you cope with exciting but unsettling periods, such as this, is by highlighting the funny side of even very challenging situations. While that boosts your spirits, certain individuals could mistakenly assume you’re not taking things seriously. For now, keep any such humorous ideas or jokes to yourself.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
Sometimes breakthroughs are clear cut, it’s obvious what you need to do, and what you’ll get for your efforts. But now things aren’t as straightforward, which means you could find yourself unsure what’s worth exploring. For now, the answer is: everything. What seems least promising could turn out to be amazing.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
Between the current move by your ruler the Sun into inquisitive Gemini and the New Moon in that sign on the 25th, life isn’t about sticking with what you know, it’s about unexpected encounters, new ideas and meeting interesting people. The more you explore, the more you’ll benefit from these encounters.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
While your innate caution, as a Virgo, has kept you from getting involved in arrangements you’d soon regret, it’s also meant you’ve sidestepped intriguing but potentially risky ideas or opportunities. Now, however, your instincts are saying what’s arisen isn’t just worthwhile, events would enrich your life, and in many ways.
Libra | September 22 – October 22
Ordinarily you’ve no objection to changes, even those that arise suddenly. But after a period as demanding as it’s been exciting, you need a break. Which means you’re tempted to ignore, if not turn down, the ideas or offers coming your way. Don’t. These are brilliant, as you’ll soon discover.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
Reluctant as you are to leave what amount to life-changing decisions to others or, possibly, to destiny itself, you’ve no choice. Yet if you consider where things are going, it’s clear you’ll benefit from them, whoever is in charge. That being the case, busy yourself elsewhere while these amazing events unfold.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
Because you respect the right of others to think and do as they believe, you’ve tried to live with the words or actions of one particular individual. However, they’re not only becoming increasingly offensive, they’re provocative. Say exactly that. But be brief and make it clear you’re not inviting discussion or debate.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
Initially, you were probably annoyed, if not concerned, that changes were in the hands of others or, worse, being left to destiny. But now, as you’re witnessing these unfolding, you’re beginning to realise there are times when no single individual, including you at your cleverest, could devise the miraculous events currently taking place.
Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
Ordinarily you’re not shy about expressing your views or letting others know what you, personally, intend to do, achieve or, in fact, expect from them. With so much in transition, this isn’t just important, keeping others up to date is crucial. Equally, listen carefully to their plans, which are also in transition.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
While there’s no debating the power and promise of the events triggered by this week’s stunning planetary activity, it’s too early to finalise plans. Not only that, with the New Moon taking place on Thursday and bringing a fresh perspective on things itself, you’ll want to explore your options in depth.
