Aries (March 20 – April 19)

Few things annoy you more than those who think it wise to review plans in detail before undertaking a plan or project, small or large. While usually this could be considered excessive, if ever there was a time to double check everything, it’s now. Begin and you’ll soon realise why it’s wise.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Nothing pleases you more than getting every element of your life in order. Of course this happens rarely -- so rarely that it’s really more of a dream than something you can achieve regularly. Knowing this, it might be worth rethinking your goals, revising them so that they’re within your reach.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

Most Geminis pride themselves on their ability to retain their cool, even when faced with dramas. However, the events triggered by the current powerful planetary activity could overwhelm even you, if not trigger feelings of emotional vulnerability. Unsettling as these are, they’ll also be amazingly informative about your own feelings.

Cancer (June 21 – July 21)

Only days ago, you’d have sworn you’d never get involved with one particular individual or in a certain situation. Yet now you’re considering exactly that. Obviously, a change of heart this sudden and this extreme comes as a surprise. However, October’s two eclipses are all about exactly this variety of breakthrough.

Leo (July 22 – August 22)

Both male and female Leos have a strong personal style. You rarely think of this, and consider even less that the appearance of confidence it gives you can often belie any doubts or problems you’re wrestling with. If you’ve asked others for help, but they do little, that could be the reason.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

The conclusion of your ruler Mercury’s retrograde cycle, on the 25th, may be a relief. But you and the rest of the world will still have to deal with considerable confusion. This is mostly the fallout from the mistakes and errors that arose during this period, but which haven’t yet come to light.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

Don’t assume that just because you’ve told others about both your existing plans and more long-term dreams, they remember what was said. Not everybody is as attentive as you are. What’s more, with circumstances in transition, it’s worth going over these yourself. Some might benefit from a rethink.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

There are many children’s games that involving telling a secret. Playing such a game with those closest, with loved ones, intimate friends or even colleagues wouldn’t be a bad idea. In the process you’d uncover false assumptions you made in the past and which, since, you’ve come to believe are true.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 20)

While there’s been good reason to ignore certain practical or financial matters, sidestep them for much longer and you’ll begin to pay a price. What’s more, with the dynamic Mars actually moving to accent these, the time and effort you invest, both in dealing with them and exploration, will pay off handsomely.

Capricorn (December 21 – January 19)

Being close to certain individuals is one thing, relying on them is another matter. You long ago learned others don’t think things through or plan as thoroughly as you do. Yet at the moment, you’ll not only have to leave certain matters in their hands, you’ll be amazed how wise their approach is.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

Sometimes the best solution for a persistent problem is to forget it entirely. This could mean learning to live with it or, alternatively, withdrawing from the situation in question. Radical as these options seem, they’ll open your mind, which will, in turn, enable you to come up with a workable solution.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

Don’t be surprised if several people come to you apologising for their mistakes. Of course with Mercury just now ending its retrograde cycle, many of those errors were inevitable. It’s just the individuals in question didn’t mention, much less deal with, the matter at the time. That’s what they’re apologising for.
