TAURUS

(Apr. 21-May 20)

You could begin to feel that any attention paid recently to your health, general well being or putting improved routines in place will seem easier as well as bringing a better balance to finances or spending. Keeping this up should see you more settled up to early November, especially if you can incorporate time just to relax.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

Any recent ideas you have been considering could suddenly begin to take shape this week, especially if they have required the involvement or acceptance of other people. You can become aware of any aspect that is not realistic where the future is concerned and come up with better ideas. There can be other opportunities not yet seen.

SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)

If something isn’t moving ahead as well as you thought it will only be through finding some quiet time to yourself for contemplation to early November that you will sort matters out. Any routine that is no longer acceptable will become obvious this week enabling you to let it go so that other opportunities can be developed.

GEMINI (May

21-June 20)

Time spent of late getting a good foundation in place will now enable you to enjoy yourself up to early November. Surprising opportunities could present themselves this week making you realise that the long term future may have more promise than you imagined. Be cautious when it comes to friends or a group of people involved in yourlife.

VIRGO (August 23-Sept.22)

Another stage of focussing on finances can begin to take shape from now to early November. Better opportunities can present themselves if you have taken more control of late. What someone else expects may not be to your benefit. Don’t respond just because you are made to feel guilty. Move forward your way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)

CANCER (June

21-July 22)

Be very determined when it comes to the way in which you feel matters need to be established or organised for stable results. Those who think they have more authority might challenge you but stick to what you believe needs to be done. This could generate greater balance at an underlying level from now to early November.

LIBRA (Sept.

23-Oct.22)

Venus, your ruling planet will move into your sign until 7th November. This will encourage you to focus on whatever you feel will bring greatest peace and security on a personal level. Avoid confusion from others this week, be aware of what you are prepared to take responsibility for and you will set matters on a beneficial path.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan.19)

You can realise that someone else will be determined to please themselves leaving you to weigh up, from now to early November, how this affects matters important to you. This may encourage you to now go ahead with your own ideas, though don’t take risks for the sake of it this week. There will be somebody who will support you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18) PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

The pressure can now come off when it comes to the expectations of somebody else allowing you to view future possibilities, to early November, that can be enjoyed in the long term. This week would be a good time to either take a holiday or plan one for the future. It might be best to avoid anything associated with the water though.

You need to be careful when it comes to committing to anything financial this week involving others as there could be aspects that will not be evident to you. What might have seemed agreeable of late with someone else may now become difficult to ascertain until early November. Best to let things float and see what surfaces.

Focus on commitments or responsibilities can move to a new level to early November. You could become aware of anything that lacks underlying stability this week and perhaps more inventive routines that could be put into place that would allow some sort of moving forward in a positive way when it comes to finances

ARIES (March 21-April 20)

This week could start off particularly busy with another layer of activity beginning to stimulate interactions with others through to early November. If something isn’t as you presumed, waste no time in discussing your own priorities and what you are prepared to move forward with. Freedom of choice is a necessary requirement to establish.
