Aries (March 20 – April 18)

When you first sidestepped issues involving loved ones or intimate friends, it was because you regarded those matters as unimportant. Over the past week or so, however, these have proved to be of considerably greater significance than you realised. Knowing that, tackle them now, while they can still be discussed rationally. 

Taurus (April 19 – May 19)

Exhausting as the on-and-off nature of certain arrangements may be, it’s suited you just fine. While you’re conscious that these must come together eventually, you dread the resulting disruption, so are happy to wait. In the meanwhile, do some investigation. The more you learn now, the easier any necessary changes will be. 

Gemini (May 20 – June 20)

Sometimes living a fantasy is exactly that, tackling everyday life as if what you wished were true actually was. Do that now, however, and soon those hopes and harsh reality will clash, and dramatically. The first step is acknowledging the facts to yourself, then to others. The rest will be easy. 

Cancer (June 21 – July 21)

Most of the issues you’re dealing with at present require no more than careful analysis and sheer determination. But one or two are complex enough that there’s no option but to tackle them in stages. Do what you can now, then wait until more facts surface or circumstances shift. 

Leo (July 22 – August 21)

For over two months, the communication planet Mercury has been in the most strategic portion of your chart. This has meant keeping certain opinions to yourself and, worse, while you’ve been struggling with bouts of uncharacteristic doubts yourself. This hasn’t been easy. But what you’ve learnt will serve you for a very long time. 

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)

Long ago you realised that while some issues are best discussed the instant they arise, others must wait until the mood is right. That’s unlikely to be now or during the coming week. While events will be unsettling and often demand all your time, the results you achieve will be worth the effort. 

Libra (September 22 – October 22)

Sooner or later you’ll have to draw the line with someone who’s becoming more difficult to deal with by the day. At one point you were confident you could handle them. But now they seem determined to keep coming up with complications. Let them. Once they are tired of that game, make your move. 

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Now that the communication planet Mercury has reached the decisive midheaven angle of your chart, certain decisions are pressing. True, in some situations you’re short of facts and in others you’re unsure what’s best. This means doing something out of character, which is making tentative plans. It’s the only way. 

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 20)

There are certain individuals who, as much as you hate to admit it, are better informed than you are. Or at least that’s the case in one particularly sensitive matter. While ordinarily you’d be right to trust your instincts, you’re urged to take the facts they say are important seriously. You’ll be glad you did. 

Capricorn (December 21 – January 18)

To you, few things are worse than discovering you’re unable to keep a promise. Waste no time trying to figure out a way around this. While you can’t alter the facts, you can invest time in making it up to those you’ve disappointed. They’re far less demanding than you are, and will understand.

Aquarius (January 19 – February 17)

Just when you were getting fed up with difficult situations and uncooperative people, the tide suddenly started turning. While you’ll still encounter setbacks, you’ll begin to recognise that each offered a valuable insight or important information. Knowing that, you can revisit certain difficult situations, but with a more positive attitude. 

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

It would be wonderful if plans could be thought through, organised and then remain as they were originally conceived. However, not only is that unlikely, the basis on which those plans are being made is unlikely to stay as it is now. The more flexible the arrangements you make, therefore, the better.
