Aries (March 20 – April 19)

You’re overwhelmed by recent developments and looming decisions. Actually, your best option is to do absolutely nothing. This is out of character but gives you time to assess recent dramatic changes and others’ activities. The resulting insights will shape the decisions you make, but probably not as soon as you anticipate.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Obviously you’d rather deal with the disarray in practical matters before venturing into unfamiliar territory. But with the New Moon’s influence there, life’s about adopting a fresh perspective. This, in turn, will enable you to spot opportunities that, otherwise, you wouldn’t even have recognised.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Last week your ruler Mercury moved to join the uncompromisingly truthful Pluto and this week encounters it. This means addressing unfair situations you’ve lived with for ages. Challenging as the idea of this seems, once you’re actually talking things over, you’ll wonder why you put it off for so long.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21)

No sign has a better sense of when to force issues and when it’s better to wait for the right moment. This has been particularly useful recently, especially with twists and turns in already tense situations shaking things up for everybody. Decision time is coming but it’s not this week.

Leo (July 22 – August 22)

Not only has your ruler the Sun moved into the down-to-earth Capricorn, its encounter with Pluto in early January will force as yet unspoken issues out in the open. You’ve been avoiding these because you had no idea what to do. By the time you’re discussing them, you will.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Although you’re unlikely to complain about the current intense planetary influence on the part of your chart that accents who and what gives you the greatest joy in life, things aren’t entirely straightforward. In fact, some serious talking needs to be done. Sort out those issues and life will be bliss.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

There’s a difference between knowing decisions are looming and the need to make them right away. True, once things are settled you can think about other things. Delve into the actual situations involved, however, and you’ll soon realise you’re short of facts and, equally, your priorities are unclear.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

Often changes in the heavens are mirrored by immediate and dramatic developments here on earth. While the stern Saturn’s departure from Scorpio, after two years, could trigger something dramatic and immediate, it’s just as likely that gradually life will become a lot less complicated and a lot more fun.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 20)

When others are careless or just plain lazy, despite the crucial nature of the circumstances in question, you generally keep your thoughts to yourself. Long ago, you learnt such observations aren’t generally welcome. However, since their lack of effort could rebound negatively on you, it’s worth talking things over.

Capricorn (December 21 – January 19)

There’s a Capricorn New Moon every year. This one’s especially powerful because the day after, your ruling planet Saturn moves into a new sign. This amplifies its intensity and potential to launch a new chapter of your life. You need only consider what that would involve. Then then watch what happens next.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Recent difficult situations made you question arrangements that are so familiar you give them little thought. Actually, that’s good. In a manner of speaking, they’ve become invisible, which means you haven’t spotted certain minor issues. Take note of and deal with them now, before they blossom into more serious concerns.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

When others know they’re in the wrong, as is now the case in at least one situation, the tendency is to deflect the blame. Unless you’re observant, it could be pointed in your direction. Be alert to this. Should it occur, speak up swiftly and put the facts right.
