Aries (March 20 – April 19)

It’s unlike you to allow setbacks to slow you down. If anything, they make you all the more determined to achieve your objectives. This week, however, it’s more about timing than sheer force of will. Do nothing now and within days events will magically rearrange themselves to suit you.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Although you’re undoubtedly familiar with Mercury’s retrograde cycle, and the accompanying confusion, your ruler Venus sometimes moves backwards in the sky, too. This is the case now and, because it’s Venus, seemingly solid alliances are coming under question. The more questions you ask, the more informative they’ll be.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Between now and the end of the week, your ruler Mercury forms links with stern Saturn, the relationship-minded Venus, bountiful Jupiter and, also, moves into a new sign. Obviously, with so much going on, even the simplest of plans must be regarded as tentative. Focus on exploration. Any decisions can wait.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

This is one of those weeks during which each day is so demanding, you feel as if a month’s gone by. Exhausting and, occasionally, as disorientating as having to deal with so much at once may be, certain matters can only be handled together. And once they’re dealt with, that’s that.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Although your ruler the Sun and Mercury moved into Leo on July 23, the forthright Mars has remained in the most reflective and strategic portion of your chart. While you’ve learnt a lot, it’s been frustrating. Now that it, too, is in Leo, you can make up for lost time.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

The time has come to have a frank discussion. For ages you’ve been sidestepping certain matters because not only have others been blaming you for the problems they created, there’s been little scope for change in actual situation in question. Now there is. Act swiftly but also with thought.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Every once in a while, a day seems blessed by good fortune. The amazing events coming your way will make it clear this is exactly what you’re experiencing. For now, simply enjoy who you encounter and the ideas that arise. In time you’ll figure out where and how they’ll fit into your life.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Revealing your feelings to somebody you care about depends as much on your mood as the situation or, in fact, the individual in question. Judging by recent tense planetary activity, you’re anxious, so saying little. Actually, the more doubts you reveal, the more welcome support you’ll receive from others.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

The saying is that “as one door closes, another opens”. Rarely has that been so true as for you, now. It was only recently that you bid farewell to a project or plan or, perhaps, an alliance that had become increasingly burdensome. Now something far better has appeared to replace it.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

If there’s anything you’ve been putting off or decisions you wish you’d made, there’s still time. Aim to deal with these before the Saturday, when Mars moves into a new position. That will prepare you for the even greater changes triggered by Jupiter’s move into Virgo, on the 11th.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

By no means are you stubborn. Yet even you could question the wisdom of radical changes in elements of your way of living or working. Heavy-handed as these seem, the world around you is changing, and these are only keeping pace with those changes. If you can’t say yes, at least don’t say no.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

It may seem one particular individual is being picky. Ask a few questions, and you’ll realise they’d spotted issues that you hadn’t. Even more, these insights mean you can tackle problems before they become serious. Tell that individual, thank them and ask that they point out similar matters in the future.
