Your Year Ahead

There’s a special spirit in all of us, though it’s generally something that sensitive Cancerians tend to suppress. But this year, you’re given planetary permission to take what’s deservedly yours. Grab unexpected opportunities, no matter how unusual. You’re often blessed with wonderful ideas, though not all fall into the realms of reality. So if forced to abandon a particular dream, don’t worry – it’ll soon be replaced by another. Expect a quiet year’s end. This period does your soul a huge favour by preparing you to step on to a higher spiritual plane.


Aries (March 21 – April 20)

Best Day: Saturday 23rd

This week offers you a course in practicality.  You may also have to deal with those who feel they know more than you.  Luckily, you have planetary approval to show them the door.  If subtlety goes unnoticed, make your message loud and clear.  If you stick to the facts and keep emotions in check, a little conflict might actually be productive.  

 

Taurus (April 21 – May 20)

Best Day:  Monday 25th

Sometimes the best form of defence is attack.  Even so, you could be opting for overkill this week.  By all means, remain assertive if others are out to undermine you, but what they’re suggesting can’t be all wrong.  Compromise is the key.  Solitude, meditation, reflection: these are the things that would benefit you most.

 

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)

Best Day:  Sunday 24th

This is a jewel of a week for determined Geminis, who view persistence as par for the course.  You’re a bit of a control freak and rarely happier than when put in charge.  It’s also a time of high self-expectations, and you’ll be in your element with demanding deadlines.  Would you have it any other way?  Possibly.  A little romance would ease the pressure.

 

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

Best Day: Friday 22nd

Almost everything has its upside – which is well worth remembering this week.  The real problem is that you’re feeling a tad lost or vulnerable, without knowing why.  When life becomes this confusing, it can help to put some distance between you and others. Late June, however, ushers you towards success – with travel being the biggest temptation.  

 

Leo (July 23 – August 23)

Best Day: Tuesday 26th

A phase of your life is coming to a close, so prepare for disruption.  Relationships built on sand can expect some erosion.  Leo discontent could even extend to clandestine meetings.  Singles, too, may prefer a secret dalliance.  Finances feature strongly, as does the need to chase your professional dreams.  An interesting time ahead.   

 

Virgo (August 24 – September 22)

Best Day:  Saturday 23rd

This week friendships win over intimacy, but don’t assume that love has left you off the guest list. The pace of social events picks up, but without the negativity of troubled emotions.  Mars fires up new hopes concerning work. If this results in increased authority, you won’t mind.  When placed in charge, you’re very much in your element.   

 

Libra (September 23 – October 23)

Best Day:  Thursday 28th

Your open and trusting attitude has just had a smack on the wrist. You’ve not been as careful as usual, and an abusive element has possibly just taken you for a ride. This need not, however, lead to major problems. Sit quietly, and come to terms with a few home truths.  For starters – not everyone is trustworthy.

 

Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)

Best Day: Wednesday 27th

The week emphasises highly-strung Scorpion sensitivity and emotion.  It’s a time when you may choose to hide under the doona, rather than face troubling emotions.  At the best of times, you don’t like to lose control of conflict or arguments. Hardly surprising, then, if you choose to withdraw into your own safe inner world.  Good tactic.  

 

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)

Best Day: Tuesday 26th

Arm yourself against a barrage of changes.  You’re a versatile soul, but when overloaded –  you soon reach burnout.  Most of your stress is self-imposed, so don’t be too proud to ask for help.  Thankfully, the planets promise more soon.  Watch your pennies, though, as the Sun seems intent on causing monetary mischief.  

 

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)

Best Day: Thursday 28th

Money becomes more abundant this week, although there’s the temptation to overspend.  But what’s life for, if not to enjoy?  You’ll sense a growing social camaraderie and will want to be part of it.  With optimism on side, nothing feels impossible or out of your reach.  Blessed with more confidence and power, you can turn most situations to your advantage.

 

Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)

Best Day:  Wednesday 27th

If anyone’s capable of talking themselves into profit this week, it’s you.  And, during a time when money takes priority, you’ll be relying on the gift of the gab. Meanwhile, Mars swivels his hips, pretty well ensuring rumpled sheets.  And, just for a change, what does it matter if it’s love or lust?  These few days afford you the courage to be yourself, with little apology.  

 

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Best Day: Saturday 23rd

A fairly courageous week for Pisceans, especially when it comes to new ventures.  If you’re focused and properly funded, you’re on the way towards success.  But there’s still risk involved – so be sure you can afford the gamble.  Should plans be delayed by a lack of capital, don’t let this ruin a potentially fun time ahead.  Not everything costs.
