Aries (March 20 – April 19)

For any Aries, obstacles are best overcome swiftly. But those you’re now facing are triggered by the clash between Uranus, which is in Aries, and Pluto, which signifies both manipulation and secrecy. Consequently, any issues will be far more complex than they seem. The first step? Ask a lot of questions.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

On March 20 your ruler Venus moved into the most strategic portion of your chart. This triggered a period during which a range of tricky circumstance have prevented you taking action, and in a number of situations. Now, finally, Venus enters Taurus, and with it, many of those barriers vanish, some overnight.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

You rather enjoy an exchange of ideas in a lively debate. Dealing with those who take such differences seriously, and who demand facts, can be seriously tedious. Still, that’s exactly what you’re facing. Ironically, the facts that surface won’t just be informative, they could resolve persistent and worrying issues.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

What seem minor disagreements with others may be the tip of the iceberg. This means it’s unlikely you’ll reach a swift accord but, rather, as you resolve one issue another will appear. Tedious as that is at the time, if you can muster the patience, you’ll be astonished how much you clear up.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

Few things annoy you more than those who are picky about details. Yet somebody like that could save the day. Certain arrangements have been encountering obstacles and you can’t figure out why. That individual has a knack for zeroing in on such things, and will spot the problem without even being asked.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Unless you follow the stars closely, you may not be aware your ruler Mercury’s been in the same rather dutiful portion of your chart since early January. While you’ve accomplished a lot, you’re ready for a break. It’s coming and, better yet, it looks like others will be organising it for you.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Outlining what you think has gone wrong with certain arrangements isn’t just risky, it’s a minefield of potential hurt feelings. Yet if you don’t address these issues now, things will only get more complicated. Acknowledge your words are unlikely to be welcomed and others’ reaction won’t bother you that much.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

The worrying actions of others have raised serious issues. While you’re mulling these over, you’re short of facts. Ordinarily you’d try to figure out what their intentions were. Instead, ask. While this may rouse vulnerable feelings, once you’re actually talking things over, you’ll realise they’re just as anxious as you are.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

Although the eclipsed New Moon isn’t until the end of the week, because it accents the structure of your life, you could already be witnessing some of shake ups it will trigger. While many are welcome, others may be more worrying. Still, your instincts are correct in telling you they’re long overdue.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

Most setbacks are just that, minor problems. However, those that arise now could be prompting you to delve into the complex issues triggered by the clash between Uranus and Pluto, which is positioned in Capricorn. While these aren’t necessarily your responsibility, you’re urged to be aware of everything that’s going on.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Recent issues forced you to take a stand on certain issues you’ve been aware of, but haven’t really had to deal with. While this won’t have been easy at the time, it’s hasn’t just given you good reason to think about your views in depth, it will lead to crucial discussions.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

While there’s no getting around the complex situations coming your way, you’re not alone. The planetary activity that’s triggering these is influencing others just as much as you, and will often involve the same issues. Brainstorm solutions together. You’ll not only come up with brilliant ideas, you’ll provide mutual support.
