Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



When conflicts between loyalties on the domestic front versus those involving your activities out in the world first arose, you assumed others would be willing to work with you to achieve a compromise. Not only has that proved difficult, you’re beginning to think you’ll need to take over the decision-making process.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19

For weeks you’ve known that, sooner or later, you’d have to rethink certain financial arrangements. And now that your ruler Venus has moved to accent these matters, the timing is perfect. While in some cases the process will be straightforward, you won’t be surprised when a few turn out to be complex.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20

Last Thursday your ruler Mercury shifted its focus from the practical matters you’ve been dealing with to discussion. This involves both what’s been on your mind and, importantly, certain intriguing new ideas or pursuits. For now, explore everything. You’ll decide what’s most interesting, but probably not until next week.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21

Being a Cancerian, you’re more aware of the influence of the Full Moon than others. However, because the recent one accented close alliances, exchanges with certain individuals would have been intense, if not crucial. Whatever their outcome, by no means is everything settled. You’ll be discussing these matters for some days to come.

Leo | July 22 – August 21

Little is more irritating than sudden developments that lead to pointless delays. Annoying as these are, they’re offering you a valuable opportunity to venture into, and learn about, certain activities or areas of life with which you’re unfamiliar. While, initially, you’ll merely be intrigued, you’ll soon recognise this information as being crucial.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21

Since early June, you’ve faced so many practical matters that there’s been little opportunity for thought. Happily, your ruler Mercury’s just moved into the most reflective part of your chart. This means that, at long last, you’ll be in the mood, and able, to tackle those matters that require time and analysis. DR Reflection?

Libra | September 22 – October 22

The trick to dealing with the unsettling events you’re facing is to remember that last week’s Full Moon heightened everybody’s feelings, including yours. Consequently, you’re taking setbacks very seriously indeed. Laughing about them isn’t easy, but once you do, you’ll regain your perspective on these and other dilemmas.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21

Although you’ve no objection to confrontations, you prefer to be in control. However, you’ll still be wrestling with the emotionally heightened feelings triggered by the recent Full Moon, which suggests everybody will be on edge. Still, if you need to clear the air, there’s no better time to do it.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20

Ordinarily you wouldn’t give much thought to setbacks such as those you’ve faced recently. But these highlighted issues you simply hadn’t realised would need serious attention. Worse, you’ve some thorough investigation to do before you can even consider your options. This will be time-consuming but worth the combined patience and effort.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18

You could easily mistake the sudden changes or vulnerable feelings triggered the recent Capricorn Full Moon as reason for concern. While they’re unsettling, they’re all about timely breakthroughs, especially in situations you only recently regarded as hopelessly stuck. Forget about analysis. Explore these. The more you do, the more you’ll learn.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17

If you’re beginning to wonder about the wisdom of getting involved in recent ideas or offers, it’s no surprise. This isn’t to suggest there’s anything wrong with them. On the contrary, they’re as brilliant as they always were. But they’re taking much longer and involve more far-reaching changes than you’d imagined possible.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



When you made arrangements or promised others something, it was based on existing arrangements and commitments. Since then, things have changed, in your world and the circumstances of those around you, including those individuals with whom you’ve made plans. Yet, bizarrely, you’ll need to explain the need to rethink earlier arrangements.
