Horoscopes
- LibraSomeone is suffering the after effects of a good night out; they could end up spoiling plans for everyone else. You're disappointed with their behaviour and might feel completely out of step with one another. You're full of energy which is great for getting things done if only other people wouldn't get in your way. It might seem, by the end of […]
- AquariusYou might shock someone who is in a highly disciplined frame of mind by going against their wishes. No one is going to dictate to you today! Getting away from familiar surroundings, joining up with like minded friends or visiting friends abroad are all possibilities now. If no plans have been made, a loved one might sense your mood and sweep you off for a da […]
- TaurusEverything you attempt seems to go wrong whether you're trying to fix a leaking tap or bake a cake! Things don't go wrong without a reason and if you're feeling one degree under you should accept you aren't in the right frame of mind to make much progress. Steer clear of the kitchen and anything connected with domestic work if you're […]
- SagittariusIf the cost of some additional unanticipated expenses has to come out of your pocket, you won't be pleased. You will be even more annoyed if it turns out someone was notified of the increase but failed to tell anyone else about it. It is likely you will see nothing remotely reassuring in the pledges a professional is making when you sense that the momen […]
- GeminiA family who have been separated from each other or an estranged couple you are fond of are brought back together again. You will be playing an important part in the proceedings and others are grateful for your help, concern and practical guidance. Despite this being an uplifting day in many ways, due to the emotional ups and downs you've been through t […]
- AriesYou might hesitate about a proposition you were going to put to someone when you sense they aren't quite ready. Very sensibly you will choose to wait for the right moment rather than rush in, make a gaffe and ruin your chances of everything going your way. If you're spoilt for choice and can't decide which invitations to accept and which to de […]
- CancerDifficulties within the family or a close relationship need to be resolved. If there has been a misunderstanding, it could turn out no one is totally to blame. You might wish things could have been done differently but this is not a time to dwell on what might have been. If a relationship has been standing still for too long but you're still happy toget […]
- ScorpioYou might find yourself questioning a person's motives and true intentions; you aren't easily fooled. Personal and business relationships are up and down and it might be down to you to take charge of a project that was begun as a joint enterprise. Initially you may feel slightly disheartened by it all. Eventually you will feel happy with the way th […]
- LeoA promise made is not delivered and although some will urge you to forget it, you will say what's on your mind. Arguments or even a blazing row is likely and this won't make the day any easier. You're angry with yourself for having been taken in by someone who has been able to twist you around their little finger. But not anymore! Once bitten, […]
- CapricornA last minute request could lead to you having to change all the plans you had made for the day. The more wedded you are to your routine the more difficult you will find this. A friend or loved one has made a mistake and desperately needs you to help them out. As a consequence this could be a rather bleak day especially when these are problems they could hav […]
- VirgoA proposal could involve making the type of commitment you've never made before. You're doing your best to hide the fact you're so nervous because you're feeling so good about this too. Rising to a challenge and being prepared to take a small risk could bring wonderful rewards. You intuitively know how to relate to people today. A peacefu […]
- PiscesYou sense an argument brewing between two friends and there is nothing you can do to appease them. This is something which has been building up for some time and the one good thing to come out of today's squabbles is that it will clear the air. You have a choice: either stand back and watch the sparks fly or walk away, leave others to it and return once […]
