Daily horoscopes with Russell Grant

Aries (Mar21/Apr20) A desire for personal security will cause you to make improvements to your home. If you don’t own your place, you will be inspired to buy one. Don’t worry if this dream is currently out of reach. You’ll obtain this goal through sheer tenacity. Although you’re independent, you need the comfort of family life. Having people who love you unconditionally gives you a chance to launch bold ideas from a safe place. Establishing roots is one of the best things you can ever do.

Taurus (Apr21/May21) An idea has been in the planning phase for too long. You’re ready to put this idea into motion. Don’t be shy about asking for funding, publicity and other forms of practical support. Your energy and enthusiasm inspire confidence. Life is about to become busy. Although you’re quiet and contained by nature, you have lots of wonderful ideas to share. Having an outlet for these feelings will keep your creative juices flowing. Keep a diary, make pictures or invent some recipes.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) This is a great time to go after a moneymaking opportunity. The chance to run a business from your home is attractive. You’re tired of spending most of your life in office buildings. Look for ways to supply creature comforts for overwhelmed customers. A relative will give you a generous gift.

This is a great time to make an important decision. Instead of following conventional wisdom, take the unorthodox route. You’re always happiest when marching to the beat of your own drum.

Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Keep your desires secret for now. The last thing you want is to be discouraged in the early stages of this venture. When you’ve gained some traction, you can talk about your goals with a trusted confidante. Until then, fly under the radar. Approval from a government agency, hospital or university will improve your professional prospects. It’s worth applying for a license, even if it comes with a hefty fee.

Thanks to your efforts, the organisation will be able to purchase much needed equipment and supplies. Spending time with friends is refreshing.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) It’s time to satisfy your sensual side. Whether this means spending time locked in your partner’s arms or enjoying a spa treatment is unimportant. The key is to put work aside in favour of pleasure. There’s more to life than keeping busy and making money.
