  • Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
    Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

    While giving up on some plans seems a defeat, soon you’ll be completely absorbed by far more promising developments. What proves most worthwhile is as new as it is unexpected.

  • Pisces (February 19 - March 19)
    Pisces (February 19 - March 19)

    In early February, you began a cycle of growth, thanks to Neptune joining your sign. Soon Mercury and the Sun will move in too. So explore all, as what once seemed impossible could now be within reach.

  • Aries (March 20 - April 18)
    Aries (March 20 - April 18)

    New arrangements are exciting. However, because decisions aren’t in your hands, you could feel left out. But others have good ideas and will welcome your input. The downside? The pace is slower than you’d like – but the results are worth the wait.

  • Taurus (April 19 - May 19)
    Taurus (April 19 - May 19)

    It would be easy to interpret unsettling developments as reason for concern. In reality, it’s the reverse. The disruptions these are triggering will lead to breakthroughs of many varieties, all of which will benefit you hugely in the future.

  • Gemini (May 20- June 19)
    Gemini (May 20- June 19)

    Far-reaching changes are influencing all sorts of plans. However, not everybody’s as quick at spotting similar promise. Waste no time. Join those who’re making new plans and encourage everybody to get involved. They’ll thank you for it.

  • Cancer (June 20 - July 21)
    Cancer (June 20 - July 21)

    No amount of tact will turn tense situations into pleasant ones. Acknowledging that frees you to focus on exploring the concepts currently emerging from surprising changes. Exciting as some may be, keep things loose.

  • Leo (July 22 - August 21)
    Leo (July 22 - August 21)

    Unsettling as the dramas triggered by the recent Leo Full Moon were, they’ve spurred discussion of certain issues. The actual situations are changing and so are your priorities, more than you realise.

  • Virgo (August 22 - September 21)
    Virgo (August 22 - September 21)

    Since the actual foundation on which any plans would be based is changing, the less you attempt to organise, the better. Within weeks, circumstances and your thinking will be very different indeed.

  • Libra (September 22 - October 22)
    Libra (September 22 - October 22)

    There is no tactful way around certain contentious issues. Accept that and be as blunt as the situation demands. The resulting exchanges will lead to breakthroughs in other seemingly impossible situations.

  • Scorpio (October 23 - November 20)
    Scorpio (October 23 - November 20)

    Problems that you’re facing now are an invitation to talk about issues in depth. Once you begin discussing them, you’ll realise you’re not alone in wanting to achieve resolution. Start out with modest goals and soon you’ll achieve miracles.

  • Sagittarius (November 21 - December 20)
    Sagittarius (November 21 - December 20)

    You’re frustrated with both others’ unwillingness to take chances and the lack of progress. Back off right now and tackle something entirely different so when you return to these your perspective and the circumstances will have improved.

  • Capricorn (December 21 - January 19)
    Capricorn (December 21 - January 19)

    Recent setbacks were about altering, if not eliminating, unprofitable plans. You’ll soon be absorbed by new and far more promising developments. What proves most worthwhile is as new as it is unexpected.

The problem is that everyone is anxious about certain sudden changes, including you. But while you're biding your time until you learn more, others are taking action, and it isn't always well thought out. The best strategy? For now – distract them.
