Your Year Ahead

Sometimes there’s no escaping the spotlight.  It’s a year when you become increasingly adventurous – emotionally, sexually and financially – so even the slightest effort on your part should eventually produce amazing results.   While most areas of your life are subject to change in the months to come, your love life is the prime candidate for wilder deviations.

Aries (March 21 – April 20)

Best Day:  Sunday 27th

Find yourself an extra pair of hands, quick smart. You’re probably needed in more than one place right now. Sure, it’s great to feel needed. But maybe you’re being stretched in too many directions. The week reminds you why very few of us make it to sainthood.

 

Taurus (April 21 – May 20)

Best Day:  Monday 28th

This week offers already astute Taureans an even better talent for sensing hidden options.  You should also recognise well-timed opportunities.  Finances suggest an exciting detour, as does a very close friend.  Then, of course, there’s the delightful follow-through to consider!

 

Gemini (May 21 to June 21)

Best Day: Sunday 27th

Someone’s being impatient this week, because they want everything done in double-time – so woe betide you if you have a few slow days or you disagree with them.  It could easily become a week of silly spats and squabbles – mostly about nothing.

 

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

Best Day:  Tuesday 29th

This is a “me first” week.  The fear of letting people down can be a strong incentive to carry on, but you’re only human; so give yourself a break. There’s still plenty to be achieved, but it can wait until you’ve had some time out. So pass the baton to someone else for a while.

 

Leo (July 23 – August 23)

Best Day:  Monday 28th

It’s okay to let people lean on you, that is – until your arm goes numb. It seems that someone’s throwing problems your way, instead of trying to resolve their own issues.  Very inconsiderate, when they know you have so much on your plate already.

 

Virgo (August 24 – September 22)

Best Day:  Saturday 26th

Feel confident?  Great, because you’re calling the shots this week.  Indecision is replaced by assertiveness, and fence-sitting by determination.  Virgos place themselves centre stage – leaving the rest of the cast in the shadows.  Top billing looks promising.

 

Libra (September 23 – October 23)

Best Day:  Friday 25th

A tricky week, as you find it difficult to settle.  You start one project, then you get restless and switch to something else…..and then the whole cycle starts again.  Sure, this is typical of Libran behaviour – but even more so now.  Relax, when you can.  

 

Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)

Best Day:  Wednesday 30th

You’re accomplished in many areas of your life but want to learn something new. If this is the case, do your homework in what you need to do next to take you forward along the new path. You can use your past skills to help you, or you can do something which is totally off the grid.

 

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)

Best Day:  Tuesday 29th

There’s a vast difference between optimism and totally out-there wishful thinking. With your natural ability to stay within practical boundaries, it shouldn’t be too hard to channel your ideas in a positive direction.  A money-spinning project catches your interest.

 

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)

Best Day:  Saturday 26th

Good times flow through a week when you’re free to chase your desires – probably to the point of over-indulgence.  Romance is a drawcard.  Some are smitten with colleagues, others feel drawn to romance with a foreign flavour. You feel loving, and loved.

 

Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)

Best Day: Thursday 31st

While the week may start on a sour note, this means that life can only grow sweeter.  Sure, some plans may be cancelled or delayed. And okay, you might be feeling a tad tetchy.  But each sunrise carries fresh hope and optimism.  Use every new day well.

 

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Best Day:  Friday 25th

Confidence, enthusiasm and your ability to handle pressure make this week ideal for kick-starting new ventures.  Use your Piscean charm, and you’ll make a positive, lasting impression on others.  After midweek, look out for unique ways to increase your income.
