CAPRICORN (DEC 21 JAN 20)
One moment of inspiration is worth a lifetime of
concentration, some would say. Well, you might
not agree entirely with this philosophy as you are
often a bit of a plodder, but you could come up
with a spectacular wheeze to improve your cash
options.
AQUARIUS (JAN 21 FEB 20)
Life is certainly buzzing at the moment and
the more you mix with people who are on your
wavelength the happier youll be. Its a case of like
attracting like at the moment, so give a wide berth
to anyone whos predictable or a stick-in-the-mud,
and instead gravitate to someone whos not afraid
to be spontaneous and a free spirit.
PISCES (FEB 21 MAR 20)
In contrast to yesterday, you are a powerhouse
of energy now. Speeding through the chores, you
even seem to have time to spare. In the quieter
moments, you may decide to have a complete
makeover, and this is just the right time to go
about it.
ARIES (MAR 21 APR 20)
Cash-wise this seems to be a good positive day,
and perhaps one when you should consider some
long-term investments. Whats more, your sex
life is likely to be more important than usual and
many of you will be developing some dramatic
crushes; one attraction for you is basically due
to your love of drama, which they, too, seem to
possess.
TAURUS (APR 21 MAY 20)
Any type of group activity is certainly well starred
today. It doesnt matter whether you are taking
part as a spectator or are right in there among the
throng, it seems to be a lighthearted day and one
during which you seem to be much closer to the
people who really count in your life.
GEMINI (MAY 21 JUNE 20)
It looks as if youre going to be playing a major
role instead of standing in the wings as you often
do. Other people could be surprised by your
boldness, but it wont do any harm to let them
re-think the way they see you: its nice to know
that they cant take you for granted. This evening
there will be a tendency to spend your money
unrealistically, so do take care.
CANCER (JUNE 21 JULY 20)
Still glowing? Well, you are allowed a little more
time basking in the limelight before you have
to get back to more mundane activities. But its
funny how something that seemed routine and
boring yesterday now appears to be much more
intriguing.
LEO (JULY 21 AUG 20)
Although some plans are not yet ready to be
launched, that doesnt mean you should ignore
them entirely. Spend part of today going over your
ideas and making sure that theyre feasible. Right
now you have the best of both worlds because
youre able to combine energy with common
sense, and to go about things in a measured and
controlled manner.
VIRGO (AUG 21 SEPT 20)
Concentrate all your efforts on whatever it is that
you want to achieve today, and youll be really
pleased with yourself. You have tremendous
powers of stamina and fortitude, and this is one
of those days when youre happy to put them
to the test. If others raise objections or use
delaying tactics, youll manage to navigate your
way round them and carry on regardless. But you
wont realize how much youve achieved until
youre able to look back on today and evaluate it
properly.
LIBRA (SEPT 21 OCT 20)
Youre at your most determined and ambitious,
and know exactly what you want to do. In fact,
youre so single-minded right now that others may
nd you slightly formidable and overwhelming.
Take care not to do anything that invites
accusations of ruthlessness or naked ambition.
Even so, you wont be deterred from zeroing in
on the task youve set yourself, even if everything
else has to go by the board for the time being.
SCORPIO (OCT 21 NOV 20)
Youre denitely going places in your career and
the more creative you are, the more successful
youll be. However, take care, because there
may be a snake in the grass who may try and
undermine your attempts to get ahead. Let them
know in your own inimitable style that you have
no intention of being foiled by their antics.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV 21 - DEC 20)
Youre very aware of how far youve come, but
youre equally aware of how much further you
have to travel. For you, Sagittarius, it is the
journey and not the destination that matters, so
you can be happy in the knowledge that there are
still many more adventures for you in store.
