Aries (March 20 – April 19)

Few things are more irritating than facing situations in which others dislike plans but won’t say why. Although their reasons are legitimate, they haven’t thought things through. Irritating as this is, you’ve no choice but to question them patiently. Gradually, you’ll uncover their objections so, finally, you can deal with them.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Although it’s been a week since the New Moon, it’s in your sign, so suggests you’ll still be mulling over various insights and new ideas. Rather than invest more time thinking about them, try plunging in. What you learn from experience could clarify those questions and indicate what’s next.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Obviously every sign is influenced by the retrograde Mercury. But the fact that it’s your ruling planet and is positioned in your sign indicates not only more of the complications typical of this cycle, but also far more insights. The latter may take longer to surface but will be amazingly valuable.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Once you understand the nature of the current planetary setup, what seem perplexing issues will make perfect sense. The real problem is that with certain crucial facts being kept under wraps, everybody’s short of information. Knowing that, waste no effort struggling to figure things out. Instead quietly bide your time.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Initially you regarded the objections of one particular individual about certain of your plans as silly, if not actually selfish. Now that you’ve had time to think about it, however, you’re recognising how right they are. Enough, you’re altering arrangements in accord with their suggestions. Next, it’s time to apologise to them.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

The move by Mars, on Tuesday the 12th, to accent the structure of your life highlighted certain issues you knew would need to be dealt with eventually. That time has come. Out of character as it may be, don’t think them through but, rather, simply plunge in. What you learn will substantially alter your perspective.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Being an air sign, planning ahead is as natural to you as breathing. Yet now events are forcing you to take action before you’ve even thought plans through. Actually, that doesn’t matter, because with the foundation on which they’re based shifting, you’ll need to reorganise them, probably several times.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Respecting the knowledge of others is one thing, allowing them to make decisions about financial or business matters is something else entirely. Yet circumstances are giving you no choice. This is more about you feeling vulnerable than the actual situation. Acknowledge that and the rest will be easy.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

True, the Sagittarius Full Moon isn’t until next week. Still, because it’s in your sign and you’re already in the midst of change, you could already be experiencing the typical emotional ups and downs. Unsettling as these are, they’ll help you understand and deal with certain anxieties you’ve been ignoring.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

While sometimes opposition signifies no more than a problem to be resolved, the recent clash between the Sun and your ruler Saturn will have brought out vital if unsettling issues. Recognise these as an invitation to review, and deal with, them and you’ll exchange concerns for enthusiasm.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Some decisions are straightforward. Others aren’t just more complex, inevitably they take time to make, and even longer to put into action. Tedious as these delays are, they’re giving you a chance to learn more about the impact the resulting changes would have on your personal life and on your world.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

You’re about to begin a complex and challenging week. While no single event will be that serious, judging by the series of difficult aspects to your ruler Neptune, you’ll encounter all sorts of obstacles. Recognise them as that, and as something to learn from, and you’ll handle them brilliantly.
