ARIES 21 MAR – 20 APR

You enjoy being at the top of the pile, even if Uranus has that habit of throwing you off. But it doesn’t matter, because exciting stars are going to find you focused somewhere else, most likely on love. If you want to catch the eye of a certain someone, or rev up the pace of an existing romance, just be yourself and dive in.

TAURUS 21 APR – 21 MAY

You probably feel that an outburst would clear the air, but it could damage fragile relationships too. With the love goddess Venus in your birth sign, it’s far better to focus on all the pluses rather than mulling over all those minuses. If you want a face-to-face, be calm and get to the point quickly.

GEMINI 22 MAY – 21 JUNE

There are loads of goodies travelling down the planetary pipeline, but you’ll have to be quick off the mark to grab the best. Flirtatious Mercury is also pushing you in a new direction now, Gemini, so you don’t want to get too caught up in someone else’s stuff, because you’ve got a lot of your own going on. It’s time to be selfish.

CANCER 22 JUNE – 23 JULY

The prospect of another working week feels a bit flat, until you discover what amazing things are scheduled by the stars. A stream of possibilities all look so promising. And it’s not going to be easy picking the best out of this great bunch. Just when you think you’ve cracked it, someone could ask if you’re really sure.

LEO 24 JULY – 23 AUG

It’s a great time for connecting and chatting. Often so much is left unsaid, but there are certain aspects of a relationship that really need discussing now. You know what the deal is, Leo, and you can see the whole picture. Once you get your mind in fast-forward, you’ll see that the fates really could make a dream come true.

VIRGO 24 AUG – 22 SEPT

Saturn puts you in charge and in control. You’re going to love throwing your weight around. And you’ll be dazzling others with your wit and great looks. If you allowed certain parts of your life to crack under the strain before, it’s a whole new dynamic now. Just remember to grab some personal space for yourself as well.

LIBRA 23 SEPT – 23 OCT

Even though one or two facts could go astray, you needn’t be in a hurry to put them right. Sometimes you forget to stop and take a breather, but this week you have to. Shared experiences and joint efforts are thriving. Loving and giving is also a big theme, so if others need more of your time, be ready to lend it.

SCORPIO 24 OCT – 22 NOV

Along with a few surplus pounds, you’ll be shaking off a few negative thoughts too. It’s a fact there are always people who want to put you down or pour cold water over your dreams. And there are always Scorpios who allow it. But this week you don’t have to fall into this type of mindset. Be tough and don’t give an inch.

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV – 21 DEC

You probably won’t have to compromise in order to gain that advantage. And if you can also grab some time away, you’ll find that a bit of distance gives you a clearer perspective on a job, a career issue or that romantic mess. But it can all be good as long as you let others know you need this time to work it out.

CAPRICORN 22 DEC – 20 JAN

There’s a lot going on that you don’t know about, but instead of butting in, take a step back first. You could even look at the potential upside and then re-assess. Your amazing input promises a bright future for whatever is in mind. But it really boils down to whether you really want that outcome, or just want to score points.

AQUARIUS 21 JAN – 19 FEB

An amazing link from Venus will either confirm your faith in a relationship or point out some annoying inconsistencies. But in general the stars are really helpful, and whatever decision you arrive at you’ll be able to handle the fall-out. Just be mindful that developments now could be so important in terms of what happens later.

PISCES 20 FEB – 20 MAR

Well, Pisces, you’ll need to be extra clever if you want to hang on to the affections of a current partner or catch the interest of a brand new one. At least the Venus-Jupiter link is a real help and is pushing you to sort out people who are for real, from those who are just hanging on for a free ride. It’s easier to make choices now.
