VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sep 22)
The sun's in your sign, beaming down on your happy little heart. No matter what drama is going on around you, you're singing your own little tune and getting on with your life. Good for you. The planets are staggering along, hunting for the best place to reconnect. But for now, you're trusting your directions, and taking more care of your own desires for once. Work with the body.
LIBRA (Sep 23 - Oct 22)
Decisions made in a rage are seldom good ones. And then, your pride and stubborness compound your problems. Try being the adult on this one. So what if you have to admit you were wrong? Since the arguments are mostly with people who like you, you'll be forgiven. Be grateful. Remember how important it is to have friends and then remind them how much they're appreciated.
SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
No one is going to arrive at your door with your hand-made success on a platter. Got that? The world owes you nothing, and all the planets want is for you to seize your own enormous power and run with it. The fact is there is no end to your talents. Your only real problem is it's never occurred to you that your life is being carefully designed by you. So if there are any bits you're unhappy with, change them. It really is that simple.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 21)
You probably won't like this but, for now, your way is probably not the best way. In fact, you may have to spend the week considering other people's needs, listening to their advice and doing what they tell you. Think of it as character building. Besides, you might learn something. It's a slow week - one in which you'll be happier keeping your opinions to yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 - Jan 19)
It's another testing time for all you control freaks. So many changes are going on around you that you're becoming obsessive about hanging on to your old life. The lesson is to trust the process and let it change you as it goes. Dig a little deeper into your own head to find out what's really going on inside. Make this week about you. It's time to remind yourself how good it feels to indulge.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18)
Denial is an expensive state. Denial about work problems; love problems, and over-obligating your time have resulted in exhaustion. Instead of doing that disappearing act, how about facing the issues? It's a well-known fact that no reality is ever as ghastly as your fears. You'll be helped as soon as you take the first step. And once you're on a roll, you'll actually start to enjoy yourself. Easier than it looks.
PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20)
Your health is taking the brunt of all this planetary drama. Think about a career shake-up, or decide to work from home. But try to stall any decisions until early next month. Find some fun ways to shift all that simmering rage. A kick-boxing class or some wild dancing. And use this week to find reasons to smile. Smiles can transform your energies faster than any medication.
ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr 19)
Watch yourself. You're in the mood to lash out at anyone you feel is demanding too much or not keeping their promises. Try some deep breathing before taking on the entire planet. Look for some healthier outlets for that competitive drive. Damage control is key here. Don't forget that direct confrontation is the best route to resolution. Not quite the same thing as abuse.
TAURUS (Apr 20 - May 20)
This is not a good time to be throwing your weight around. Let life come to you for a while. Patience (which you have) and adaptability (which you're working on) will get you through this frustrating period. Think about love. There's plenty around. And just because it's not the kind of love you have fantasised about, doesn't mean it's not love. Remember, everyone gives in their own way. Learn to appreciate the differences.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
So you don't feel like responding with your usual chirpy smile. In fact, everyone is getting on your nerves, No need to fake the charm. Just say as little as possible and watch yourself closely. This is a fantastic time to get to know yourself better: your reactions, your feelings, your thoughts. Make notes. After all, this is probably just as much about you as it is about them.
CANCER (June 21 - Jul 22)
The family is expanding and you're finding your place in the middle. On the one hand, this is Cancerian heaven. On the other, those feelings of claustrophobia and unfulfilled dreams haunt your darkest moments. Focus on the good stuff, maybe finding a new home or improving the one you have. Life has seasons, and this season is for consolidation. More excitement soon.
LEO (Jul 23 - Aug 22)
So you've survived the Leo eclipse and are moving on to bigger and better things. It's possible you've been presented with a new love interest, or tossed out the old one. Now you need to slow down. This week's planets are asking for patience, tolerance and forgiveness - mostly for yourself. If you've messed up, you can start again with new plans. If you're being misunderstood, apologise and move on. Be nice...
