ARIES 

March 21 – April 20

The questions kids ask aren’t always easy to answer. But we do our best. We try to explain the ways of the world (even though it often seems our answers aren’t taken on board). Maybe though, that’s because we’re similarly naïve! For all our sophistication, we don’t have much understanding of life and its meaning. There’s a chance you’ve made a judgment based on an almost childlike belief. With transformative Pluto in a new sign, if you take a step back, and reconsider, you’ll see a much more insightful way forwards.

TAURUS 

April 21 – May 21

If only we had the power to make people do things they don’t want to do. Actually, we do… but we can’t make them enjoy themselves while they’re doing it. They might, with the benefit of hindsight, feel grateful that we ignored their objections, but most of the time, we’re better off investing our energy into more productive, cooperative possibilities. It might not suit your plans, but someone’s trying to show you where their limits lie. If you respect this, and explore another option, your experience will be different, but surprisingly positive.

GEMINI 

May 22 – June 22

Suppose you stop worrying about what can’t be done, and feeling frustrated about what can’t happen? Instead of looking at what’s wrong and feeling irritated, try accepting that there’s a reason why something isn’t going according to plan. Circumstances are contriving to guide you towards the only option that makes real sense. Meanwhile, if you just do what you can, despite the obstacles, it won’t turn out to be an unhappy compromise. It will be exactly what’s needed, just when it’s most needed. Trust… and keep going. You’ll see.

You’ve got lots to look forward to. The inspiration you need is in your in-depth forecasts at cainer.com

CANCER 

June 23 – July 23

Our growing awareness of environmental issues means we’re all familiar with the concept of finite and infinite resources. We know, for example, there’s only a limited amount of fossil fuel. When it’s gone, it’s gone. Fortunately, we’re finding ways to tap into planet Earth’s other resources; like wind, sunshine and wave power. In your personal ecosystem too, there’s a need for sustainability. You’ve only got a restricted quantity of determination you can draw upon. But the potential for love in your heart is endless. Share that today.

LEO 

July 24 – August 23

Since it’s people’s hot-headed reactions that cause so many of the world’s problems, life would be much easier if we could all be more ‘chilled’. So, try to stay as cool as possible today. I’m aware that I’m saying this to a Leo, who’s ruled by the Sun! But things will go more smoothly if you find a way to lower your temperature. Various awkward factors are already having a wet-blanket-effect. But they won’t last for long. Meanwhile, the more passion that gets stirred up, the longer it will take to calm everything (and everyone) down.

VIRGO 

August 24 – September 23

Humans can be obstinate and contrary. We often like things that are controversial (and not very good for us). Like eating sugary food. Or listening to very loud music. Or getting involved in unnecessary arguments. It’s easy to think that if these things were banished, we’d be happier (and grateful). But no! Once we’ve taught ourselves to like something, we tend to love it. It’s worth checking your enthusiasm for an ‘acquired taste’ today. It might be standing in the way of your ability to enjoy a less problematic experience.

LIBRA 

September 24 – October 23

How do we judge whether the situation we’re dealing with is healthy, or not? By how good we feel? By how much we care? That second option isn’t a very reliable way of making an accurate assessment. Commitment is a fine thing. But when we can’t separate ourselves from our feelings we can lose our perspective. As your ruler prepares to change signs, it’s an ideal moment to stand back and reassess a situation you’re closely caught up in. Then, you’ll be able to take advantage of the positive developments coming your way.

SCORPIO 

October 24 – November 22

You’re facing a lot of options, and trying to work out which ones are worth taking isn’t easy. In the absence of an obvious ‘best’ choice, it’s tempting not to make any decisions. Yet, under the pressures you’re dealing with, that’s not the wisest thing to do… they’re not just going to evaporate. Or wait for you to get lots of people’s advice. With your ruler in Aquarius, your intuition is extra-powerful. In your heart, you know that one of your ideas has more merit than the rest. Forget what you think, trust what you feel… and go for it.

SAGITTARIUS 

November 23 – December 21

Even though we don’t know very much, we think we know it all. With our limited understanding of the nature of the cosmos, we speak with authority about how the universe began and how it’s developing. It helps us feel more secure. On a deep level, we know that we’re tiny beings who have negligible impact. But if we sound confident, we make ourselves feel bigger and more important. In protecting yourself from an ‘unknown’ right now, could you be making an inaccurate assumption? Be open to a brighter possibility today.

CAPRICORN 

December 22 – January 20

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Falling in love pumps it full of emotion. Caffeine makes it beat faster, and meditation slows it down. We go to all sorts of lengths to try to influence our heart rate. As Venus prepares to enter your sign, your passions are running high. What are you going to do about this? Enjoy! You’re coming into your power. Prepare to surprise yourself with your enthusiasm. And, if things start to feel too much, know that you’ve got the techniques (and support) to thrive. Exciting times lie ahead.

AQUARIUS 

January 21 – February 19

We can count on some things happening on a daily basis. Every morning, the Sun will rise over the horizon. And every evening, it will set. That’s a definite. Similarly, every day you can be sure that someone will say something annoying. And that you’ll find yourself in a situation that raises your stress levels. They’re definite too. We can enjoy the fact that the Sun will always rise and set. But as for those other daily happenings (the aggravating ones) we have to find ways to deal with them. You can rise above a difficulty, with style, today.

There’s no need to worry. All you need is some guidance. Your in-depth forecasts can help at cainer.com

PISCES 

February 20 – March 20

If, as the song goes, Heaven really is a place on Earth, it would explain why there are so many of us sharing this planet. Who wants to spend their time sitting on a cloud, strumming on a harp, when they can be here, in the midst of all the action? Heaven can wait! And, since hell seems to follow us wherever we go, we might as well opt for being here and enjoy all the experiences life brings our way. Whatever you find yourself doing today, if you choose to look at it in the most positive light possible, it will go surprisingly well.
