Cancer (June 20 - July 21)
Recently, life has been about solving issues. But with Jupiter moving into Cancer on the 26th, you’re about to start a brilliant cycle. For now, focus on letting go of negative elements from the past.
-
Leo (July 22 - August 21)
Take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way. You can withdraw from certain plans later if you’re feeling overwhelmed. For now, recognise just how informative exploring new things could be – even if they don’t seem interesting.
-
Virgo (August 22 - September 21)
Now that Jupiter’s about to move on, you are faced with a lot of changes. So forget about analysis. Instead, proceed with what appeals to you, knowing that as you learn more, you’ll tweak your priorities.
-
Libra (September 22 - October 22)
You are unsure how to respond when asked to advise on someone’s tricky matters. Be sympathetic but be careful not to get too involved. Tempting as discussing these issues may be, you’re better off keeping a distance.
-
Scorpio (October 23 - November 20)
Keep all conversations about recent unfair situations or current issues brief as they’ll distract you from the amazing ideas coming your way. True, a few may not seem great, but they’re all worth exploring. One of them will be of huge significance.
-
Sagittarius (November 21 - December 20)
Although the arrangements others are making on your behalf may be beneficial, you don’t have to go along with them. But before saying no, at least explore them. This will broaden your horizons. By next week you’ll be thrilled with what’s taking place.
-
Capricorn (December 21 - January 19)
Some of the events triggered by Wednesday’s superb encounter between the Sun and Jupiter will seem like a nuisance, but they are breakthroughs worth exploring. The more you learn, the better.
-
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
You’ve been seriously considering changes in elements of your life, but nothing has gelled. While the current planetary focus is on such matters, there is no need to commit just yet. There are a lot more intriguing options to consider.
-
Pisces (February 19 - March 19)
For ages you’ve had to focus on vital matters at a cost to certain relationships. But now things have changed. With those issues settled, you will now have time to focus on those relationships.
-
Aries (March 20 - April 18)
You are finding it difficult to let go of plans you worked hard to organise. But as you do, you’ll realise you’re disentangling yourself from restrictions. Some of this week’s sudden developments could turn out to be golden opportunities.
-
Taurus (April 19 - May 19)
Pointless as this week’s endless discussions seem, you soon realise they’re introducing you to new ideas. Explore everything. By midweek, when the puzzle pieces begin to fit, you’ll realise that what you learn could be life-changing.
-
Gemini (May 20- June 19)
Despite other people’s excitement about plans, you’re not keen enough to commit. Since you’re in a period of exploration, you want to ensure others know what excites you while retaining your freedom. The results could be spectacular.
