Your Stars Today

Aries | March 20 – April 18



The past couple of weeks have been as unsettling as they’ve been dynamic. This has meant certain of your plans got waylaid while you focused on sudden developments. Now that those have been handled, it’s really important that you make a point of returning your attention to those activities you were pursuing.

Taurus | April 19 – May 19



Tempting as it is to say a firm no to one particular seriously unappealing idea, you’re urged to at least discuss it. At minimum, you’ll learn something. But what comes to light as a result of talking things over with others could so alter your perspective that your firm refusal could turn into a ‘maybe’.

Gemini | May 20 – June 20



Understandably, as thrilling as the ideas or offers currently being discussed may be, you’re wary of agreeing to anything that would demand such extensive changes in certain of your habits. Yet, admittedly, your current setup is becoming more unrewarding by the day, which means you don’t have much to lose.

Cancer | June 21 – July 21



At certain times, and in certain situations, facts are easy to come by. But the ideas or offers currently headed your way have more to do with the variety of feelings that defy analysis. However, you can and should rely on your instincts. They’ll tell you everything you need to know.

Leo | July 22 – August 21



While you’ve an affection for drama in some areas of your life, in others you not only prefer to stick to certain arrangements or habits, you regard changes as a nuisance. However, with so much of the world around you in transition, not only are changes inevitable, they’re in your best interests.

Virgo | August 22 – September 21



By no means are you narrow minded. On the contrary, being ruled by the inquisitive Mercury, you’ll meet new people and explore even very unfamiliar ideas, simply because you know you’ll learn something from the experience. Still, the way the coming days’ events or encounters broaden your horizons could surprise even you.

Libra | September 22 – October 22



The last thing you want to do is upset anybody. But one particular individual seems not to care who they offend or upset, and this includes you. The fact is, the individual in question actually enjoys ruffling others’ feathers. Ignoring their antics won’t be easy, but it’s the best strategy.

Scorpio | October 23 – November 21



It probably seems there’s little hope of untangling the confusion you’re currently facing. However, there’s a simple answer. It’s just you’re unaware of it, and wouldn’t conceive of this on your own. The solution? Discuss the concerns you’ve been hiding openly with others. Raise these now. And be as frank as possible.

Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20



If asked, nobody would say you’re stubborn, including you. Yet your refusal to even explore and, still less, respond to ideas or offers that would take you into unknown or, perhaps, unsettling territory reveals just how rigid you can be about certain matters. At least explore these. You won’t regret it.

Capricorn | December 21 – January 18



Usually, when plans are being turned into action, you’re the one whose demands for facts slow progress. Now that the tables have been turned, and you’re confident about plans but others aren’t, and insist they be informed of facts themselves, you’re beginning to realise how frustrating the demands you make can be.

Aquarius | January 19 – February 17



Tempting as it is to hope that certain individuals have recognised that your life, and your circumstances, have changed and that will mean a shift in your relationship, it’s unlikely. But, equally, you’re urged to talk this over, and frankly. Unappealing as the idea sounds, it will do wonders to clear the air.

Pisces | February 18 – March 19



Tempting as it is to respond to requests for advice, especially from those you care about, it’s risky. Everybody is struggling with the dynamic changes triggered by this powerful cycle in their own way, one that’s uniquely theirs. Well-meaning as your suggestions may be, they’re not necessarily right for them.
