Aries (March 20 — April 18)

The potent link between your ruler, Mars, and fortunate Jupiter may have taken place last Friday, but it’s so powerful, you’re still benefiting from it. Clear cut as certain offers may have been, pay close attention to exciting chance encounters and to your own sudden inspired ideas.

Taurus (April 19 — May 19)

Obviously, you’d rather make plans that will last. But judging by the current changeable planetary set-up, even simple arrangements will change, and change again. While you might regard this as aggravating, you could also view it as an opportunity to explore without the fear of getting too deeply involved.

Gemini (May 20 — June 19)

Planning ahead is great but with your ruler, Mercury, moving into a new sign last week, and Venus and Mars changing signs over the next week or so, circumstances, your mood or priorities are bound to shift as well. The trick is to organise arrangements so they can be quickly and easily rethought.

Cancer (June 20 — July 21)

Recent obstacles were as puzzling as they were perplexing for you. When you organised things, you thought you’d dealt with every detail. But this is one of those tricky periods during which unexpected developments can mean you’ll need to conduct a serious rethink and quite possibly, more than once.

Leo (July 22 — August 21)

Nobody would blame you for being as disappointed as you are upset by the behaviour of somebody who you’ve trusted, if not looked up to. You’re only now discovering that they, like everybody else, have shortcomings. Unfortunately, these involved a situation in which you were relying on the individual in question.

Virgo (August 22 — September 21)

Your ruler Mercury’s just joined Venus and the uncompromisingly honest planet Pluto in the portion of your chart that accents what and who you enjoy most in life. If ever there was a time for a forthright discussion about these matters, it’s now. Even complex issues can be resolved, possibly overnight.

Libra (September 22 — October 21)

It may seem like there’s no rush to tackle certain tricky family or domestic issues. But with your ruler, Venus, departing this portion of your chart on Wednesday, the actual circumstances you’re dealing with could change, and swiftly. Discuss these frankly, and with the intention of putting them to rest now.

Scorpio (October 22 — November 20)

Few things are more annoying than discovering you’ve either neglected to deal with an important issue or, worse, made unwise choices. The problem isn’t what you have or haven’t done but, rather, that you’re so hard on yourself. The more you explore, the more mistakes you make. And that’s no bad thing.

Sagittarius (November 21 — December 20)

Although the Sagittarius New Moon was nearly a week ago, you’re still benefiting from the fresh insights it triggered. Ironically, while it’s taken time to come to grips with some, ideas that seemed puzzling initially have turned into promising solutions for dilemmas you thought you’d just have to live with.

Capricorn (December 21 — January 19)

Few things are more frustrating than being told luck is coming, but not until the end of the month. However, this knowledge will prevent you trying to improve on what are merely adequate situations when, if you can manage to be patient, amazing events will appear, as if by magic.

Aquarius (January 20 — February 18)

By no means are you a control freak. But currently, several of the most significant planets are in the portions of your chart that accent friends and colleagues. While, usually, you’ll happily share planning with them, they’re in charge. Strange as this seems, you’ll be delighted with the decisions they make.

Pisces (February 19 — March 19)

The recent clash between the Sun and your ruler, Neptune, may have made for a few seriously awkward moments. But, in retrospect, you’ve also realised that your suspicions about certain individuals weren’t your imagination but founded on fact. Your next challenge will be deciding what to do about it.
