Your Stars Today
Aries | March 20 – April 18
Although you’re not secretive, many of those around you are unaware of exciting plans. While you’ve discussed these enthusiastically with certain individuals, it simply hasn’t occurred to you others haven’t been updated. Do so now. Yes, it will be time consuming. Still, regard this as an investment in those relationships.
Taurus | April 19 – May 19
With the recent eclipsed New Moon and, just now, your ruler Venus both accenting the structure of your life, changes are in order. While you may already be aware of some and have, perhaps, already put others into action, a few seem overwhelming. Bizarrely, ultimately, they’d be the most rewarding.
Gemini | May 20 – June 20
When you made certain decisions about your domestic setup or working life, each seemed the best option. Since then, not only have the circumstances in question changed, so has your thinking on these matters. Tiresome as the idea of reviewing everything seems, do so. Looking back on this, you’ll be glad you did.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
Tempting as it is to lend a hand where others are struggling with problems, be cautious. The issues in question would be simple for you to deal with. But these dilemmas are cosmically designed to force those who’re battling these to go within, and find both their own solutions and the strength to put them into action.
Leo | July 22 – August 21
You rarely even think about your ability to stand your ground, or you didn’t until you encountered certain impossible individuals or dilemmas. The fact is, these are far more complex than you realise. So much that you’d be better off joining in with others, and talking things over before taking any measures.
Virgo | August 22 – September 21
Some believe you’re a mind reader. You’re not. But you are a canny observer of others, so are often able to figure out what they’re thinking and, even more, their intentions. But with so many changes recently, everybody’s views are in flux. Bear this in mind when talking things through with others.
Libra | September 22 – October 22
While it’s true that once words have been spoken they can’t be ‘unsaid’, nothing is stopping you from discussing one particular recent, and seriously tricky, conversation. It’s unclear whether the problem was a misunderstanding or that somebody was simply being difficult. Determining this is the first step to clearing things up.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
The Sun and the retrograde Mercury are both in the portion of your chart that accents friends, colleagues and even neighbours. As a result, you’ll find you’ve good reason to discuss certain perplexing issues with these individuals. You may have assumed that they’d have few insights to offer. If so, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
You don’t realise it, but your genuine interest in others is as rare as it is charming. This means others are drawn to you because they enjoy your company, and for no other reason than that. In your knack for making your own life interesting, you’re able to bring excitement to the lives of others.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 18
Long ago you learnt that arguing about the rights and wrongs of certain arrangements achieves no more than raising everybody’s blood pressure. Yet, bizarrely, what you learn from the questions you’re asked will get you thinking about certain matters you’ve regarded as unchanging. Once, that was true. But, as you’ll discover, it’s no longer the case.
Aquarius | January 19 – February 17
Having your facts straight is one thing. But relying on them now, just after two powerful eclipses and, even more, while Mercury is retrograde, is a risky strategy. Base any discussions on this information but make it clear, you wouldn’t be surprised if unexpected facts came to the surface suddenly.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Others may be encouraging you to battle certain changes you’ve been questioning. The irony is, while your questions are about practical matters, those who’re encouraging you to say ‘no’ seem unwilling to explore any options. This is all about them. Base your decisions on your own needs and requirements, nobody else’s.
