Aries (March 20 – April 19)

It’s the rare Aries who enjoys details. That doesn’t mean you have been able to avoid them. Recently you have faced numerous situations that require you to be precise. Now, almost in compensation, the swift pace of developments forces everybody to focus on the big picture and leave everything else for later.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Waste no time trying to shore up familiar but increasingly unworkable arrangements. Sad as you may be to see these go, it’s time for a change. Ironically, some will return, in a new and better form. For that to happen, however, you must have the courage to say your farewells now.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

You’ll always explore an exciting idea or offer. This is both because you are curious how it will work out and also because it could turn out to be as good as it seems. Unfortunately, not everybody will respond as enthusiastically. In fact, your biggest challenge will be dealing with certain reluctant individuals.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21)

It may seem others are being stubborn. Yet judging by the present planetary setup, which combines fast-moving events with unsettling changes, certain individuals are uneasy. Since they may be unaware of this, encourage them to discuss their concerns frankly. They may be uncomfortable at first, but will soon start enjoying it.

Leo (July 22 – August 22)

Rarely has there been such a contentious planetary setup in the heavens, which points to equally tricky situations here on earth. Knowing that, put off any clashes. What seems crucial now may not be that important next week. And if it still is, you can tackle those issues then.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

There are few more disheartening feelings that the sensation that a major battle is brewing. Not only are your observations accurate, get involved and you’ll be in the middle of a whirlwind of accusations. But then, issues don’t really involve you. Try to stay out of this. You’ll be glad you did.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Recent thrilling events have left you both in a good mood and, perhaps, better off financially. Tempting as it is to use that newfound sense of wellbeing and wealth to cheer up those who are suffering, think twice. While some would benefit, others are too busy moaning to appreciate your generosity.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

From time to time, you forget that not everybody has the same standards or values that you do. Bear this in mind now and, instead of wasting time wondering why certain individuals have made such unwise, and for you, unhelpful decisions you should instead focus on seeking remedies for them.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 20)

Because you dislike it when others refuse to explore new ideas, you try to avoid closing the door on options, even in difficult situations. However, some of what is taking place now isn’t difficult, it’s impossible. That being the case, avoiding such options.

Capricorn (December 21 – January 19)

As an earth sign and somebody who’s ruled by the sensible Saturn, you always check your facts before you get involved in a plan or with a person. Yet now, with things moving so swiftly and so much that’s new, you must rely on your intuition, which is no bad thing.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Good fortune is always welcome. It’s just when it appears during otherwise challenging periods, as is the case now, there’s a tendency to distrust even wonderful ideas or offers. Despite tricky situations elsewhere, these aren’t merely as good as they seem, they could compensate for much of the aggravation you are facing.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

It may seem there’s no way around the present tense issues that everybody is thinking about than an open conflict. While that’s an option, the parties involved will first need to assess their individual vulnerabilities. Once they do that, they might well decide a more peaceable approach.
