Your stars with Russell Grant

Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Your leadership ability results in a big promotion. Taking the helm of an important division will be stimulating. You’ll enjoy offering opportunities to a talented person who has been continually overlooked. This dark horse will surpass your expectations; you’ve discovered a superstar. Heading off to a private hideaway allows you to let off steam. While you’re relaxing, stay away from social media and keep off your mobile. Slowly but surely, your equilibrium will be restored. You’ll no longer be overwhelmed by small problems.

Taurus (Apr21/May21) Having strong spiritual convictions allows you to withstand the pressures of modern life. When pressure mounts, you turn your attention inward. Connecting with your higher power keeps everything in perspective. Instead of seeking fame and acclaim, you focus on cultivating contentment. An artistic friend sees promise in your creative efforts. Listen to their advice about a creative or innovative project you’ve been working on. A series of small alterations will have a dramatic effect. Stop clinging so stubbornly to your original concept.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) You’re very good at handling joint finances. When you make purchases, you choose items that are well made and serviceable, rather than fashionable. If you’re managing a relative’s money, you opt for conservative investments that will generate long-term financial security. A fantastic career opportunity is on the way. There’s a good chance you’ll get paid well for your communication skills. It will be so much fun to do a job that stimulates your intellect instead of sends you to sleep.

Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Heavy responsibilities you feel for a partner don’t faze you. It gives you pleasure to relieve your other half of dreaded tasks. You’re able to dispatch these tasks quickly and easily, earning your friend’s eternal devotion. In exchange for these sacrifices, you receive professional support. Thanks to this association, you’ll get an opportunity to earn an advanced degree. Having a diploma will allow you to pick and choose your work assignments, living anywhere in the world you desire. It’s a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Leo (Jul24/Aug23) A steady job will be offered to you. It would be wise to take this position, even if it seems a little boring. Having a steady income will allow you to satisfy debts and build savings. You’ll soon move on to bigger and better things. Beware of getting ground down by a predictable routine. Make time for romance. Whether this means splashing on a new fragrance every day, buying a bouquet of fresh flowers for a friend or loved one or visiting a beautiful garden each day is completely up to you.

Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Accept an opportunity to develop your natural creative ability. Learning specialised techniques from an artisan will make your spirits soar. You’ve always been good with your hands. After mastering a set of skills, you can sell your handiwork for a profit. Trust your instincts about your best friend or romantic partner. If you sense they could use some cheering up, take them on a special outing. Take in a concert, museum exhibition or play with them. They’ll benefit from an evening out with you.

Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Spending time with family will be rewarding. You’ll learn some valuable information about a relative’s upbringing. At long last, their mysterious behaviour will make sense. This doesn’t forgive their abuses, but it does make you feel better about your troubled interactions. A nervous condition will ease when you get more rest. It doesn’t matter if you take naps, go to bed earlier or practice relaxation techniques. Stop burning the candle at both ends; it’s robbing your strength and energy.

Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) When you attend a work meeting, it would be best to listen more than you speak. By watching how colleagues react to certain proposals, you can make some effective alliances. Affiliate yourself with people who take a long-term view of the business. A romance has a fairy tale quality that is the envy of your friends. The secret to your powerful bond is your capacity for unconditional love. Instead of trying to change each other, you fully embrace your partner.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) A shrewd business decision will improve your financial position. Accept an entry level position for the sake of getting a foot on the career ladder. Knowing an industry from the inside out will turn you into a hot commodity. You must walk before you can run. A strong desire to live near the water should be obeyed. You have a fiery personality that sometimes creates burnout. Being able to sit near a pond, river, lake or ocean will be therapeutic. Alternatively, you can install an indoor fountain in your favourite room.

Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) You’re tremendously disciplined, which allows you to produce a tremendous amount of excellent work in a short time. Don’t be shy about promoting your gifts. Ask for a raise. When interviewing for work, ask for the highest end of the salary range. Learning how to play music or speak a foreign language will put you on the path to romance. Someone who admires your skills will invite you for a candlelit dinner. The chemistry between you will be powerful.

Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Working alone is rewarding. You’re tired of making decisions with a committee. When left to your own devices, you must make many executive decisions. This is easy, since you have the courage of your convictions. Your first instinct is usually right. Investing in art will pay off handsomely. You’ve got a good eye for emerging masters. Buying someone’s early work will put you in a strong financial position. You’ll soon be able to sell these pieces for several times what they were originally worth.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) An experienced friend has good career advice. Follow their suggestion to join a professional organisation. Knowing people in your desired industry will greatly improve your job prospects. You’ll hear about the sorts of positions you want before they are advertised. This gives you an advantage. Devoting more time to art will make your spirits soar. Take time out of your busy schedule to write, paint, design clothes or compose music. Ideas will flow like a mighty river; follow a seemingly silly impulse. You won’t regret it.
