Your Stars Today
Your Stars Today
Aries | March 20 – April 19
If you’re restless, it’s no surprise. With your ruler Mars positioned in one of the most practical portions of your chart, and having been there since early December, life’s been about dull facts and duty. Still, what you’ve cleared up thus far and will this week more than compensates for a little boredom.
Taurus | April 20 – May 20
Decisions that will have a lasting impact on the structure of your life are being discussed and must soon be settled. Yet you still have numerous unanswered questions. Persist. Urgent as things seem, things are unlikely to be settled until the 18th, when your ruler Venus moves to accent those plans.
Gemini | May 21 – June 20
You’d never intentionally steer somebody in the wrong direction. But, unintentionally, you gave somebody information that wasn’t just incorrect, it could cause them problems. Forget about trying to find a solution. Tell them, and as soon as possible. The odds are good that they’ll know exactly what to do.
Cancer | June 21 – July 21
There’ve been many times, and many situations when you’ve just wished somebody else could take over tricky dilemmas or impossible decisions. But now that circumstances have taken crucial matters out of your hands, you’re not at all happy about it. Actually, you can relax. Others know what they’re doing.
Leo | July 22 – August 22
It’s the rare Leo who’ll avoid a confrontation out of fear. You’d always rather face even the most difficult of situations or individuals than feel you’d cheated yourself. Yet you’re now realising just how complex one of these is, and recognising that your best bet is seeking a compromise everybody can live with.
Virgo | August 23 – September 22
Obviously you’d never deliberately steer anybody in the wrong direction. That’s what’s most annoying about the past weeks, with your ruler Mercury retrograde, and so much unsettling planetary activity. Despite your best efforts, you unwittingly caused others problems. Don’t worry, they faced similar confusion, and did the same. They’ll completely understand.
Libra | September 23 – October 22
Heart to heart discussions are important, and can do wonders to help rebuild trust. But with things moving so swiftly, even the simplest of promises won’t last, primarily because of changes in circumstances. Knowing that, any serious personal discussions should wait a few weeks, until the pace is slower.
Scorpio | October 23 – November 21
As much as you dislike the idea of revealing your concerns about both existing arrangements and the plans of certain individuals, you’ve no choice. You feel these need to be discussed, if not brought to an end, and that requires the support of others. The more upfront you are about this, the better.
Sagittarius | November 22 – December 20
There’s a fine line between being truthful, that is, not actually lying and being honest. This means being upfront about both the facts of certain matters, your own views, feelings and intentions and what you know of others’. While, inevitably, that necessitates a long conversation, if you’re being honest, you’ve no choice.
Capricorn | December 21 – January 19
Only days ago, you planned on tackling certain persistent issues, one by one, and putting them to rest swiftly. Since then, you’ve realised that each of these is different and, equally, each is far more complex than you anticipated. You’ll get these dealt with, but it will take far longer than anticipated.
Aquarius | January 20 – February 17
The last thing you want to do is upset anybody. While you’re easygoing about differences with others, whether friends or family, not everybody feels the same way. In fact, certain individuals feel it’s vital you discuss these matters and strike an accord. Diplomatically but firmly avoid any such discussions.
Pisces | February 18 – March 19
Little is more annoying than the discovery what you thought were solid facts aren’t. This is embarrassing but, even more, makes you question whether one particular individual is trustworthy. First, however, investigate. The real issue may be the fact that they care far less about details being correct than you do.
