Aries (March 20 — April 19)

While Mars’ move to accent the structure of your life shifts the focus to long-delayed decisions, that doesn’t mean immediate action is wise. On the contrary, for the moment your priority is learning more about existing ideas or offers and exploring options that are interesting but about which you’ve few facts.

Taurus (April 20 — May 20)

Long ago you learned whose ideas and advice is worth paying attention to and whose aren’t. At the moment, however, you’re urged to pay close attention to those whose suggestions you’d usually dismiss. Unrealistic as what they suggest seems, you’ll soon discover it’s exactly what certain complex situations need.

Gemini (May 21 — June 20)

Being an air sign, you want the hard facts about any ideas before making a decision. However, judging by the amazing aspects involving the planet of vision, Neptune, your instincts about one particular plan could be so powerful that you’ll feel any more than the basic facts are unnecessary.

Cancer (June 21 — July 21)

Although you’ve enough to keep you busy, don’t be surprised if you develop a sudden restlessness. This could involve a radical change of schedule or even thoughts of getting away. What’s needed, however, is a break in your routine. Do that, and you’ll soon forget your need to break away.

Leo (July 22 — August 22)

Some of the amazing developments that accompany the superb alliance between your ruler the Sun and Neptune will be immediately recognisable for what they are. Others, however, will be more subtle. So much, it won’t be until long afterwards you recognise them as the turning points that they were.

Virgo (August 23 — September 22)

In mid-September, the dynamic Mars moved into the domestic angle of your chart and since then, you’d dealt with numerous issues, some minor and others of more major proportions. Now that Mars is accenting life’s pleasures, you’ll not only get a break, pleasurable moments will compensate for those pressures.

Libra (September 23 — October 22)

Everybody has dreams, hopes about ways various elements of career, relationships or domestic life could unfold or, equally, how existing arrangements could be improved upon. Now, miraculously, your own dreams are being fulfilled. Waste no time on discussing your questions about these. Say yes now and deal with any fine-tuning later.

Scorpio (October 23 — November 21)

Despite your best efforts to convince yourself that you’re tough, your fundamental nature is sentimental. Because of that, you’re bound to be deeply touched by the thoughtful words or actions of one particular individual. Don’t keep this to yourself but, rather, let them know. It will mean a great deal to them.

Sagittarius (November 22 — December 20)

No sign is better equipped than yours to deal with life’s twists and turns. Consequently, while those around you were complaining about the confusion triggered by the retrograde Mercury, you used it as a springboard for exploration. Although Mercury’s resumed forward motion, you’re still benefitting from what you learned.

Capricorn (December 21 — January 19)

Life would be a lot easier if you could make important decisions. That, then, would free you to focus on other matters. Rush these, however, and you’ll only need to rethink them, and soon. Challenging as living with these uncertainties is, it’s better than making decisions, only to regret them later.

Aquarius (January 20 — February 17)

With the ideas planet Mercury having been retrograde for most of October, until the 25th, you’ve been battling confusion on every front. The real problem is that while, often, this was clear, in many situations, it wasn’t. Thus, now that Mercury’s moving forward, you must assess what’s reliable and what isn’t.

Pisces (February 18 — March 19)

When you first conceived of certain ideas, you were in a different frame of mind and the world was different too. While things have moved on, these ideas are as valid as they were initially. Knowing that, should others make suggestions of improvements, gently but firmly say ‘no thanks’.

If it’s your birthday today

You may be aware of your intuition, and perhaps even rely on it. Or it’s just as possible you ignore it, only to have those around you exclaim how accurate your observations about circumstances, their lives and the world are. Whichever end of the spectrum you are, the Sun’s stunning alliance to Neptune, which governs such matters, on your birthday indicates it’s time to take this gift seriously and, even more, to cherish it.
