Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Transportation problems are frustrating, but don’t let them spoil your day. Take the precaution of fully charging your mobile and bring a snack and some water before leaving for a trip. If you must change plans, you might as well be comfortable while you wait. Escaping to a world of fantasy is tempting when things become stressful. Resist this impulse. Bringing your attention to a problem is the best way to solve it in a fast, effective way. Stay focused on the present moment.

Taurus (Apr21/May21) Take extra precautions with your possessions. Put valuables in your trunk before leaving your car. Don’t walk away from your laptop if you’re using it in a public place. Lock your doors when exiting your home. Forewarned is forearmed; protect yourself from theft. An organisation isn’t being truthful about its methods. When you see a big difference between what they say and what they do, you know you’re dealing with dishonest people. Remember this whenever you have to deal with this group.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) Egocentric behaviour will backfire. It’s understandable that you want to promote your interests. That doesn’t give you the right to ignore other people’s feelings and agendas. By showing sensitivity to those who will be affected by an upcoming decision, you can reach a compromise. Be realistic about how much time it will take to perform a complicated job. By allowing yourself an extra week or two, you’ll save yourself a lot of anxiety and embarrassment. It’s hard to do good work when you’re trying to beat the clock.

Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) At times, you can be your own worst enemy. Instead of falling back on a vice when you encounter problems, face them. If that means entering a rehabilitation programme, undergoing therapy or embarking on a fitness regime, so be it. Don’t put your faith in someone who claims to have all the answer. If you’re looking for guidance, turn your attention inward. You have excellent instincts on what you need to thrive. If doing a job makes you miserable, find a more rewarding line of work.

Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Friends are looking for trouble. Don’t join them on an outing that will turn ugly. You can’t afford to be associated with their bad behaviour. This could be a sign it is time to move on to greener social pastures. Surround yourself with ethical people. Go over financial statements with a fine-toothed comb. If you find any questionable charges, follow up on them. There’s no reason you should pay for a lending company’s mistakes. Protect your interests; nobody else will do it for you.

Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) A dictatorial attitude towards professional affairs will do more harm than good. You might get what you want in the short-term, but you’ll also make enemies with long memories. When it comes to getting what you want, be polite and respectful. Withdrawing from an intimate relationship is a mistake. You’re afraid that confiding in your business or romantic partner will open another can of worms. Let down your guard. A heart to heart talk will strengthen your bond, not weaken it.

Libra (Sep24/Oct23) This isn’t a good time to argue about religion or politics. You’ll never convert anyone to your point of view. Worst of all, you could hurt someone’s feelings. Rather than imposing your beliefs onto others, adopt a live and let live attitude. You don’t want to be given a work assignment. Avoiding it through laziness and irresponsible behaviour will backfire. Continue to project a polished, professional image. Tackle this job quickly and efficiently. It will lead to better projects.

Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) A minor disagreement will escalate into an enraged confrontation if you don’t keep calm. Let someone jump a queue in front of you. Allow a bad driver to go along their merry way. Resist contradicting an opinionated person who doesn’t have the facts. You feel lonely and isolated in your personal life. If you’re looking for love, try to embody the qualities you would like in a romantic partner. Show an interest in other people’s hopes, dreams and fears. Give them the encouragement and reassurance you’d like from an amour.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) A difference of opinion is undermining a close relationship. At some point, you must let go of the issue or part ways altogether. It’s up to you. If you’re dealing with an ethical matter that can’t be overlooked, obey your conscience. It’s your best guide. You will be burdened with the responsibility of a needy relative. It’s important to set some healthy boundaries here. It will also help to belong to a support group while you fulfil this obligation.

Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Don’t push your system too hard or you could incur an injury. When you’re feeling tired, stop and rest. Rather than throwing yourself into a rigorous workout, opt for gentle activity instead. Simple stretching will do you more good than intense exercise. Lately, you’ve been giving evasive answers to questions. You don’t want to be held accountable for your words. If people are going to take you seriously, you must make promises and deliver on them. If it’s impossible to meet the public’s demands, be truthful.

Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Someone who throws temper tantrums wants attention. The best way to deter this kind of behaviour is to spend more quality time together. You may be surprised to know this, but your opinion means a lot to this troublemaker. Show them that you care. You lack reason and practicality when it comes to money. Instead of spending beyond your means, put yourself on a budget. Find other sources of income. Take satisfaction in the blessings you already enjoy. A few little changes will make a big difference.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Safety precautions will protect you from a world of trouble. Wear protective equipment when working with machinery. Put on your seat belt when you drive. Don’t leave the stove unattended. Simple measures like this will save time, money and aggravation. Be honest about your shortcomings. If you aren’t good with meeting deadlines, say so. Ask a reliable colleague to hold you accountable for delivering a project on time. Are you struggling with a bad habit? Talk to a therapist that specialises in this matter.
