Horoscope

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 – Feb 19) Expect life’s little uncertainties to disappear this month. Emotionally, you’re especially assertive, and if partners know what’s good for them, they’ll do what you tell them to. There may be a gulf between your expectations and reality, but it’s nothing you can’t handle.

PISCES (Feb 20 – March 20) In love, it’s the thrill of the chase that matters most. Having kids is important to you at the moment, so it’s best for you to spend more time with them to help you find your “inner child”. It also means being open to spontaneous opportunities, even if you’re busy!

ARIES (March 21 – April 20) Your prospects are great this month, and there’s huge potential for personal growth. At times, you’ll be tempted to throw a tantrum, but this will sabotage your carefully laid plans. In relationships, your heart may be led by your wallet – try winning aff ection with a few choice gifts.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21) This is the time to celebrate your achievements, but that doesn’t just mean embarking on an endless round of parties. It’s a crucial moment for developing your talents, even if it’s in defiance of what society expects. If you have children, they should be your priority at home.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21) You may find yourself caught between two diff erent sets of pressures, but you’ll show a remarkable ability to magnify your advantages and minimise problems, and see all your options clearly. In matters of the heart, companionship is more important than passion, and friends are more reliable than lovers.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23) You’ll find yourself facing a lot more work, while setting aside extra time for friends. However, you’ll keep all your true feelings to yourself, so don’t be surprised if friends and colleagues don’t know what you’re thinking about. Give free rein to your fantasies when it comes to your love life.

LEO (July 24 – Aug 23) Your opinions and ideas will indeed be better than anyone else’s. After the 21st, the key to a smooth-sailing time ahead is to put other people first, and to always make them feel wanted.

VIRGO (Aug 24 – Sept 23) Your long-term plans are still in motion, but the short-term situation may be slightly chaotic. Just shrug off the odd setback. The more easily you can laugh at life’s absurdities, the happier you’ll be.

LIBRA (Sept 24 – Oct 23) You may be tempted by short-term excitement, but you’re better off building long-term friendships than going for instant gratification. Get in touch with old friends and deepen your bonds with new acquaintances. At work, concentrate on gaining as much experience as possible, and as quickly as you can.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 22) You’re the boss, and colleagues and partners have to fall in line. Pace yourself so you don’t end up burning out. It’s important to focus on a healthy lifestyle and wholesome diet. You’ll be happiest doing your part for those in need.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23 – Dec 22) Personal prospects remain bright, and what used to be a distant dream could finally become reality. There is also a chance of welcome change at home – you could finally get more space to move and breathe. Play your cards carefully now, and everything will fall into place next month.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 – Jan 20) A friend will point you towards the path of success, but some partners may be more than a little impatient. You should find ways to channel this into more positive energy. Travel will be an excellent cure for any emotional blues, and you’ll find peace and happiness easily in distant countries.
