Aries (March 20 — April 19)

There are few things more touching than being surprised in a way that’s both delightful and shows the individual in question gave serious thought to their gesture. In addition to thanking them, make an effort to find something similar you can do for them. It’s the best way of showing your appreciation.

Taurus (April 20 — May 20)

Simple differences are one thing, but financial disagreements are quite another matter. And if you don’t tackle these soon, the individuals in question could easily begin to draw conclusions that aren’t just incorrect, they’ll lead to problems. Ironically, once you’re actually talking, things will proceed more smoothly than you anticipate.

Gemini (May 21 — June 20)

Sooner or later you’ll need to come to terms with an issue as persistent as it is annoying. While you’ve been able to navigate around it, you’re increasingly concerned about the possibility of a blow-up. That’s wise. Things can’t, and they shouldn’t continue as they have. Make discussing this a priority.

Cancer (June 21 — July 21)

Often sudden changes in existing circumstances or your plans for the future are reason to worry. Not now. In fact, judging by the current series of powerful aspects to the planet of innovation, Uranus, what’s least expected could turn out best in the long run. Certainly changes will be an improvement.

Leo (July 22 — August 22)

The line between being imaginative or even wishful thinking and pure fantasy isn’t always clear. This is especially the case now. One particular individual seems convinced their ideas aren’t just good, they’re brilliant. But you’re not so sure. Explore with them. It’s the only way to discover what’s for real.

Virgo (August 23 — September 22)

Working out issues with those at work or in your everyday life isn’t that difficult. However, dealing with those that involve very close friends or loved ones can be a real minefield, as you’re discovering. Still, challenging as this is, it’s an investment in the future of this relationship.

Libra (September 23 — October 22)

Initially you thought you’d found a way to keep those who insist a substantial reorganisation is vital happy, while sidestepping those changes that would upset others. But now events have taken things out of your hands. Ironically, those dreaded changes will be accepted, and without the least bit of complaint or drama.

Scorpio (October 23 — November 21)

Even the most easygoing of Scorpios has a strong sense of personal privacy, especially when it comes to finances. Yet with the Sun, Venus and now, Mercury, all accenting such matters, discussions are inevitable. Instead of changing the subject, discuss any concerns openly. You’ll be astonished how helpful others are.

Sagittarius (November 22 — December 20)

It’s not that you’ve been secretive, but rather, you’ve felt it wasn’t the ideal moment to address certain matters. However, with both circumstances and your mood having changed substantially, the time has come to speak up. This isn’t just about making changes, what you decide will shock a number of people.

Capricorn (December 21 — January 19)

For ages you’ve been battling with certain careless individuals. They don’t care if their mistakes bother others, simply because, from their perspective, living with chaos is normal. So despite the fact events are giving you a chance to catch their errors, it really wouldn’t make much difference. Instead, avoid relying on them.

Aquarius (January 20 — February 17)

The term ‘frank conversation’ may sound intimidating. While it’s true, it conjures up a feeling of having to defend yourself, in this case, the focus will be on opportunities. You may already be aware of some but other, perhaps more important ones, will emerge from this exchange of ideas.

Pisces (February 18 — March 19)

When others are struggling to find a way around problems, you’ve a knack for finding a way. Now, however, not only is there no diplomatic solution, frank exchanges are what’s needed. Worrying as this seems, once those involved are actually talking things over, what seem impossible issues will shrink, and within moments.
