Aries (March 20 – April 19)

You want to believe in fairy tales and so believe the outrageous promises of certain charismatic individuals. Before you commit, however, ask a few tough questions or, better yet, seek the guidance of cynical, but trustworthy friends or colleagues. Don’t make decisions on your own. 

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Differences with others are one thing. But discovering that somebody may have been taking advantage of you financially is quite another matter. Although your chart accents this possibility, it’s no more than that. Talk things through frankly. You’ll learn a lot about the individual in question and even more about yourself. 

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

The attitude or actions of one particular individual has gone from being merely irritating to a genuine nuisance, for you and others. Worse, they seem unaware of the trouble they’re causing. Raising this issue won’t be easy, but you must. Say nothing and they’ll assume you’ve no objections to their behaviour. 

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Nobody enjoys getting disappointing news. But judging by this week’s powerful aspects to Neptune, planet of vision and illusion, even the most carefully organised of plans is unlikely to survive as originally intended. As much of a nuisance as rethinking these is, it will lead to improvements in the long run. 

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Looking back on it, you’ll undoubtedly recognise the difficulties triggered by Monday’s encounter between your ruler, the Sun, and practical Saturn as having been profitable. But that doesn’t mean you’ll be happy about what you must do or deal with. Still tackle whatever arises swiftly. You’ll be glad you did. 

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Yet again you’ve been undermined by your assumption that others are as thorough and cautious as you are. In this case, somebody didn’t double check the facts, which has resulted in complications for everybody. Except, of course, because others never bother with details, these problems seem normal to them. 

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Ages ago you made discreet arrangements that suited those involved, but would have upset a few people. So you kept them quiet. It made no difference then. Now it does. Let it be known what was organised then, ensuring those who’d be interested hear about it. You need do nothing more. 

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Being ruled by the fair and factually scrupulous Pluto, you try to stick to the facts. This is tricky, because certain individuals seem convinced you owe it to them to hide their unsavoury deeds. You don’t. Get involved in these deceptions now and others will expect you to do it again. 

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Dealing with a whirlwind of new ideas can be thrilling. At the moment, however, it’s exhausting and, worse, is preventing you from taking certain plans or projects to the next stage. Don’t allow those feelings of being overwhelmed to slow your pace. Ironically, the actual process of planning will ground you. 

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

Every Capricorn, from those for whom life is about juggling challenges to individuals who’ve achieved impressive goals, sometimes has serious doubts. Judging by clashes between Mercury and the Sun, and your ruler Saturn, that’s the case now. Think about the times you faced and overcame similar doubts. 

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

You may never know whether one particular individual was lazy or simply couldn’t be bothered to deal with their responsibilities. At this point, discussing where things went wrong will achieve little. Just do what’s necessary. Then make a note to yourself that the individual in question really isn’t reliable. 

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

Few things are more disillusioning than the discovery that somebody has been dishonest with you. It’s not only disappointing, you’ll have to think back to decisions you made based on their words. Tempted as you are to get angry, don’t. Everybody reorganises the facts in this way on occasion, including you.
