Your Horoscope

Those hinting that your plans to develop—either professionally or financially—are unrealistic have a point.

GEMINI

22 MAY - 21 JUNE

Those hinting that your plans to develop—either professionally or financially—are unrealistic have a point. Don’t let a Sun-Neptune clash persuade you to adopt a less-than-cautious approach. The set-up sounds exciting but is based on fairly precarious assumptions. Always do your research.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 23 JULY 

Opportunities opening up before you are meant to be treated as private and confidential. Avoid the temptation to confide in someone to whom you’ve often told your deepest, darkest secrets. Even the merest mention of what is about to occur could rob you of the chance to improve your position, status or lifestyle dramatically.

LEO 

 24 JULY – 23 AUGUST

It’s natural that recent events should cause you to reflect on your opinion of a certain individual. But don’t speak too soon about your change of attitude. You’re dealing with someone with a chameleon-like capacity to appear to be one thing one minute, then something different the next. It’s too soon to share your real thoughts.

VIRGO 

24 AUGUST – 23 SEPTEMBER

Contact with certain individuals has led to your idealising one of them who is more flawed than you realise. Placing someone on a pedestal often leads to disappointment. And with Mars linked to Neptune, it may be hard to distinguish between fantasy and reality. Don’t make any commitments without putting in thought and consideration first.

LIBRA 

24 SEPTEMBER – 23 OCTOBER  

You’ll quickly see how much value there could be in embarking on an intriguing journey or endeavour. There will seem to be little risk involved, compared with how much you stand to gain if all goes well. Just make sure however, that if somebody close sees danger, you call a halt and think again.

SCORPIO

24 OCTOBER – 22 NOVEMBER

Others doing battle with one another have no right to draw you into the dispute. And your need to please mustn’t make you feel obliged to become involved. It may not be easy to take up a neutral position and remain on friendly terms with both parties but it can—and must—be done.

SAGITTARIUS 

23 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

Though you won’t mind putting in the work, you might wonder how long it will be before a particular project pays off. Venus collaborating with Pluto means you’ll soon begin to appreciate the true worth of moving slowly but surely towards a successful outcome. Use all the resources at your disposal.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 20 JANUARY

A new, more enlightened, approach to your health and well-being should reassure you that you can cope with imminent challenges. But do take steps to ensure that this is not temporary and that you continue to take better care of yourself for the foreseeable future. Encouraging results are on their way.

AQUARIUS

21 JANUARY – 19 FEBRUARY

Some people saying they’ll contribute to a particular cause might not come up with the goods. But it will not be your responsibility to shame them into sticking to their word, especially when any ill feeling could be long-lasting. Sometimes, we have to put the disappointing behaviour of others down to experience.

PISCES

20 FEBRUARY – 20 MARCH

Jupiter confronting Neptune in mid-June is no excuse to do battle with someone criticising the way your dealings impinge on your personal life. Reflect on recent changes which have deprived you of the opportunity to be with loved ones. Then promise yourself you’ll remedy the situation at the earliest opportunity. 

ARIES

21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

Unexpected developments impacting your family or your day-to-day environment must not derail certain professional or financial arrangements. So refuse to take on board scathing comments from people who feel very strongly that you should have their best interests at heart at all times. Be glad that few can rival your fancy footwork.

TAURUS 

21 APRIL – 21 MAY

No matter how well-disposed you feel towards a group of people, curb a tendency to be over-generous towards them. Yes, they probably deserve your respect and admiration but you’re not meant to bankroll them. That wouldn’t be good for them—nor for you, especially since new demands on your money are soon to appear.
