Your Year Ahead

Unwelcome planetary transits have squared up to your own sign for many months now, creating difficulties and hardships.  At times, though, it takes adversity to force the Gemini hand.   Professionally, you may have to abandon what’s no longer working for you.  A tough ask, but by October, you emerge newly equipped to deal with this year’s changing circumstances. You will also have earned significant karmic brownie points – both in work and play.  By early summer, singles should once again be able to follow through with their boldest desires.  Similarly, couples may also enjoy the luxury of overriding the stricter checkpoints of their erogenous zones.  Something for everyone, it seems.

Aries (March 21 – April 20)

Best Day:  Sunday 24th

Money becomes more abundant this week, although there’s the temptation to overspend.  But what’s life for, if not to enjoy?  You feel a growing creativity and will want to make the most of it.  With optimism on side, nothing feels out of your reach.  Blessed with more ambition and confidence, you can turn most situations to your advantage.

Taurus (April 21 – May 20)

Best Day:  Tuesday 26th

A caring cosmos keeps a watchful eye on your progress, helping to restore what was previously taken or forfeited.

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)

Best Day: Sunday 24th

Show others just how determined you are to enjoy life.  Changed circumstances may still try to douse enthusiasm but even life’s sterner lessons should work in your favour.  It’s true what they say, that hardships can often be blessings in disguise. Be nourished by the courage of your own spirit.   And you shouldn’t rule out the possibility new online romance.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

Best Day:  Saturday 23rd

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

Leo (July 23 – August 23)

Best Day:  Wednesday 27th

Your open and trusting attitude has just had a smack on the wrist, Leo.  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. It’s also a week for keeping up close friendships.   Even if you can’t visit, you can phone or skype. 

Virgo (August 24 – September 22)

Best Day:  Thursday 28th

Supposedly, everyone is innocent until proven guilty. But should your suspicions be aroused this week, no one gets the benefit of the doubt.   Being so astute, it’s all-but-impossible to get the better of you.  If necessary, release any excess tension via healthy exercise.  You should also treat yourself to at lease one luxury.

Libra (September 23 – October 23)

Best Day:  Saturday 23rd

Arm yourself against a barrage of changes.  You’re a versatile soul, but when overloaded –  you soon reach burnout.  None of this stress is your fault, so don’t be too proud to ask for help.  Thankfully, the planets promise more joy soon.  Watch your pennies, though, as the current circumstances seem intent on causing monetary mischief.  

Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)

Best Day:  Friday 22nd

Face it, Scorpio – it’s money, and how well we handle it that plays a big part in our daily lives. And right now you probably have a few leaks in the financial pool. Happily, extra capital comes from surprising sources – and generous ones at that.  A little recognition can go a long way.   Soon, you’ll be achieving more than you ever thought possible.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)

Best Day:  Monday 25th

Feeling uncertain about the future?   If you’re basically happy with your partner, friends or career – you should feel rewarded but if you’ve made a few errors of judgement – you may soon be back to great drawing board of life, perhaps even totally redesigning your plans from the ground up.  All these new experiences become a new learning curve.    

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) 

Best Day:   Tuesday 26th

It seems that the more contact you have with others this week, the more cash you part with. Yes, Capricorn – it’s open-wallet season.  Even if you’re not the one who’s eager to splash out, someone close seems more than happy to spend on your behalf.  Other concerns include real estate negotiations or family legal matters.

Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)

Best Day:   Friday 22nd

Unchecked consumerism could come to a costly crunch, particularly if you’re financing someone else’s expenses.  Mid week reveals your inner psyche.

Still, if there is a there a lesson here – it’s to learn to forgive and forget.  At the same time, pay extra attention to your health.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Best Day:  Wednesday 27th

With so much surrounding turbulence, finding your equilibrium hasn’t been easy. Home and work vie for your attention, putting you under far too much pressure. Caution can’t be stressed enough, as errors made now could be the source of a complicated future.  Dig around for the truth if you’re suspicious of another’s motives.
