ARIES

March 20 – April 18

Ordinarily, you confront obstacles head on. But in one particularly complex situation that’s achieved little, so you’ll be grateful for this week’s unexpected but very convenient sudden changes. Initially, they trigger a storm of anxiety from others and force you to relinquish a certain amount of control. Still, soon you’re recognising them as exactly the solution you’ve been seeking.

TAURUS

April 19 — May 19

Let others know exactly what your intentions are, but when it comes to decisions, be flexible. Things are moving so swiftly that plans must be a joint effort, and are bound to evolve as events reshape the circumstances themselves. And explore every option. What seems unworkable could make sense the next day, and be the perfect solution the day after.

GEMINI

May 20 — June 20

Everything is changing, mostly for the better. But several situations, some involving business or finances, are worryingly obscure. Actually, with July’s two eclipses reshaping this area of your life and the circumstances of others, things can’t be rushed. Discuss your ideas, plans – and concerns – frankly and encourage others to as well, and you’ll ensure you’re always up to date on everything.

CANCER

June 21 — July 21

Understandably, others want decisions. And so do you. However, because Monday’s Cancer New Moon is more about questions than answers, ideally you’ll focus on exploration of both existing plans and the new ideas or offers currently coming your way. Some may involve a parting, others new alliances. But all are preparing you for July’s even more dramatic developments. 

LEO

July 22 — August 21

Accept that certain decisions aren’t yours to make and you’ve overcome the week’s biggest obstacles. Actually, because Monday’s New Moon begins a four week long cycle of life-changing events, you’re better off waiting and watching now, and responding later. Some of what you learn could substantially alter your thinking about your short term plans and long range objectives.

VIRGO

August 22 — September 21

It’s ironic that situations that seem so challenging initially prove so revealing about certain deeply personal matters. They raise questions about your priorities, who you love and your ideals. The resulting review may remain unresolved until your birthday, but proves so illuminating that you won’t mind. Also, since you’ll be open to anything, you’ll deal easily with these changing times.

LIBRA

September 22 — October 22

Because you’ve been discussing them for ages, many of this week’s changes will be no surprise. Add other, completely unexpected, developments and the heavy-handed attitude of certain individuals indicted by Tuesday’s clash between the Sun and Pluto, and you could feel overwhelmed. Still, go with the flow. Even what seems most disruptive now will soon prove both beneficial and timely.

SCORPIO

October 23 — November 21

Between now and early July destiny, in the form of unexpected and perhaps unwelcome events, is revolutionising your thinking and expectations. These events, triggered by challenging aspects to your ruler Pluto, corner you into exploring unfamiliar ideas and breaking old habits. While these won’t be recognisable as breakthroughs for some weeks, still, they’ll introduce a much-needed excitement to your life.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 — December 20

Having dealt with the more visionary side of the changes currently streaming through your life, your focus now shifts to practicalities, including money, time and ensuring you’ve adequate support for your schemes. Usually you’d figure out such things as you proceed, but circumstances require either guarantees or precise planning. This may annoy you now, but it prevents disasters later.

CAPRICORN

December 21 – January 18

The events triggered by Monday’s unsettling New Moon are only part of a month-long pattern of growth. Understand that and instead of organising changes as swiftly as possible, you’ll do the minimum. Out of character is this is, you soon recognise the freedom it gives you to consider new ideas and options, some very intriguing indeed, as they arise.

AQUARIUS

January 19 — February 17

The complex situations you’ve been wrestling with for some months are about to become even more demanding. That may not sound like good news, but in the process of dealing with unexpected twists in circumstance and others’ often peculiar ideas about what’s wise, you’ll learn a great deal. And it’s those insights that will lead to early July’s pivotal decisions.

PISCES

February 18 — March 19

Others may complain loudly and at length about disappointments or being treated unfairly. Still, do nothing. These developments are only forcing them to do exactly what they’ve been avoiding. True, in some situations you must be unsympathetic in a way you dislike. Until you realise that in being tough, you’re actually doing the individual in question a very big favour.
