ARIES March 21 – April 19

Quite a bright and cheerful month! Nice feelings of satisfaction when you review recently made decisions and realise that they have been the right ones, quiet feelings of confidence and satisfaction when you check bank balances, and some easy-going feelings of security where close relationships are concerned. Yes, there are issues that still need sorting, but they can wait.
So, what are these ‘issues’ I have just mentioned? Well, some of you will be dealing with a stubborn old relative who will not shift in their views, while others will be infuriated when someone close to them changes their mind far too frequently, making any long term planning very difficult. Third party health issues could be a nuisance and an inconvenience – and here you have to be on guard against someone who is not nearly as poorly as they might like you to think that they are…
And for the time being, that’s quite enough for you to be getting on with! Nevertheless, as I said at the beginning: a bright and cheerful month overall.

TAURUS April 20 – May 20

An easier month than some you have known this year. You get a clearer idea of where you’re going and what your priorities should be, and there is lots of support from lovers and partners. If September was an expensive month, October gives you chance to balance the books back into the black, and a long term project now starts bringing some fiscal reward.
There is an epicentre of bright positive energy coalescing around the 29th, 30th and 31st and this should be a great time for meeting new people and making a couple of worthwhile long term friendships: it should also be a highly charged romantic/sexual period for younger single members of the sign who are looking for something a bit more serious than just a good time. Also an opportune period for embarking on new artistic and creative endeavours; a lot of old blockages and restrictions now beginning to dissipate.

GEMINI May 21 – June 20

A relatively calm and peaceful month with no great highs or lows, which gives you chance to get your head off the chopping block, to back away from other peoples’ problems, and enjoy a lot more “Me” time. Social aspects are warm and welcome – but they are controlled by your own initiatives and timetables. You meet who you want to meet, when and where you want to meet them… not the other way round!
If this attitude raises a few eyebrows, it just goes to prove that there are a few eyebrows that need to be raised. You have spent too much time doing and being what other people have wanted you to do and be, that you have lost sight of your own identity – and now it is time to claim it back!
You might not be the flavour of the month with all and sundry, but there are a couple of people, and one person in particular, who will be totally supportive and who will applaud what you are trying to achieve at this time.

CANCER June 21 – July 22

Cancerian parents are likely to be in conflict with their children, and regardless of the child’s age, this is when you might start reaping what you have sown. Unencumbered members of the sign make headway in jobs and careers, and light-hearted romantic liaisons should be nice… But this is not the time to get into anything heavy or complicated…

…In fact, this might be time to get out of something which has become far too heavy over the last few months – or even the last few years – and if nothing else, a bit more space and independence would serve you very well over the weeks ahead.

There are a couple of worthwhile business ideas being mooted around the 16th and 17th – no immediate decisions needed, but some food for thought, and sadly there are likely to be a few emotional ructions at or just before Halloween, when either you completely lose your patience with someone – or they lose their patience with you.

LEO July 23 – August 22

A fairly good month for all practical matters and for catching up on work projects and ambitions that got put on hold earlier in the year. Social aspects are sufficiently bright to guarantee you a few good nights out, and this will be a good month for networking and for meeting new people. Sadly, it is not a good month for establishing deep meaningful emotional relationships, and I would strike this item off your agenda for the time being.
This does not mean you are being confined to the cloisters like some Trappist monk or virginal nun, but that spark of romantic excitement is missing – which might not be important if it isn’t important to you, but which will be disappointing if it is. Either way, there will be a few times when you look over your shoulder into your history and ponder over some of your lost opportunities.

VIRGO August 23 – September 22

Potentially one of the busiest and most productive months of the year so far, and although there may be some delays and setbacks, these are very minor when compared with your achievements. If there is some extra money rolling in (which there will be) keep a track of where it’s coming from, and make sure it goes out again (and on time) to the right people. I don’t quite know why, but it seems very important that bills are paid on time and that you maintain a comprehensive paper trail of your cash flow.
You may experience some moodiness in a partner as they are coming to terms with some new family situations: this is not as serious as it sounds, but it is something that will need an element of sympathy and understanding on your part. On a different note, make sure that motor car maintenance is up to date because there are indications of enhanced travel patterns that might involve a lot of night driving.

LIBRA September 23 – October 22

Some very high “highs”, especially around the 11th 12th and 13th but with some low “lows” kicking in around the 20th and 21st. The highs are higher than the lows are low, but you’re forgiven if you don’t see it in that light at the time. The highs should come in the form of promises and commitments from loved ones, and evidence of romantic (or sexual) interest from one person in particular, and the lows are associated with the need to make a decision that you do not want to make, or indeed, feel ready to make. Even if this is a critical “Peter or Paul” scenario, you can play for time… but not much time… hours or days, but not days or weeks!

Job and career aspects may provide a welcome distraction, especially if this turns out to be a busy and productive month… Important conversations/interviews/meetings around the16th and again on the 23rd and/or 24th may be useful and convenient, except that at this time, as far as your personal life is concerned, those distractions could be a bit dangerous.

SCORPIO October 23 – November 21

Emotions and desires (secret or otherwise) run deep throughout October, especially towards the very end of the month… the 28th, 29th, 30th and 31st … when several issues come to a head. This is a time of endings and beginnings, a time of walking away from anything old, obsolete and redundant so that new pathways and directions are seen more clearly. This is not always an easy process, but this time round in your case, it is something that happens quite naturally, maybe with just a little bit of drama but without any trauma. Just go with the flow, trust your instincts, and you’ll end up being where you want to be. Scorpios are probably the most sensual members of the Zodiac, and this is a time to rejoice in and to celebrate that sensuality. Welcome some radical new ideas (and opportunities) and dump old restrictions in the dust bin.

SAGITTARIUS November 22 – December 21

Along with the detritus of everyday life, during the next few weeks, there will be a meeting/reunion with someone who once played a major role in your life and represents a link with your past. There is some fragility in this situation, and you might need to keep a cool and objective head on your shoulders, not over-reacting to the emotions of the moment and always remembering you can never turn back the clock.

On a more mundane level, while there is some job security, there is also a degree of boredom creeping in and many will find themselves feeling restless and constrained. There are some new openings on the horizon, but they may put you in the position of having to choose between the devil that you know and the devil that you don’t.

Partners and spouses might not be too helpful at this point in time because they are too deeply involved in their own unfolding dramas and situations. Overland travel aspects in a southerly direction look probable.

CAPRICORN December 22 – January 19

A rather gentle month, compared with some you have known this year. You will feel in control where work and job situations are concerned and will be pleased when it becomes apparent that your views and advice are being listened to – not just professionally, but in your emotional life as well. Not a lot of spare cash floating about, but despite this, your fiscal confidence should be quite high, especially if you are in receipt of old fashioned “luck” money or money that is owed to you from any given source.
Someone else’s health situation may be an ongoing concern, but at least you’ve got their attention and they are listening to you… just for a change! The 13th and 14th could see some emotional tension caused by someone interfering in your personal affairs and twisting the truth on the grapevines of gossip, but this should be cleared up and dealt with (quite effectively, I would have thought) no later than the 19th or 20th. If you have been uncomfortable with your weight/appearance, this is a great time for starting diets and committing to health regimes.

AQUARIUS January 20 – February 18

While not being the most secretive signs of the Zodiac, Aquarians are somewhat inclined to keep their innermost thoughts and feelings to themselves… which as far as you’re concerned, is a very bad idea at this point in time! Far better that you open up, let other people know exactly how you feel, giving them the chance to offer more support and understanding. If you don’t get it, just move forwards without them… but make sure other people know what you are doing, and more importantly, why.
You may have to go through a crappy few days between the 8th and the 12th – bad cold, twisted ankle… nothing that will kill you, just something which slows you down a bit when you need to be active. I suspect that many of you will be clocking up a good few extra miles this month, and just to annoy you, watch out for a couple of heavy bills on motor cars… So, check service schedules and engine levels etc.

PISCES February 19 – March 20

If I describe October as being an “uneventful” month, I think you should accept this as good news! Heat is removed from arguments, awkward decisions are put on hold, divided loyalties are resolved (though not without some compromise) – all of which creates a degree of breathing space and provides an opportunity for you to re-examine your own needs and priorities.
If there have been tensions with other family members, especially people living some distance away from you, these tensions should dissipate by mid-month, leading to at least one healing and convivial reunion by month’s end. Elderly Piscesians who are dealing with chronic health problems should be able to enjoy a little more energy and freedom before the end of the month and young Piscesians who might have been nursing broken hearts come to realise that there are other fish in the sea that can be wonderful substitutes for the one which has swum away.
