VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sep 22)
The communication planet is back on track from Tuesday. The planet of courage, strength and sex appeal moves in on Wednesday, and a full moon sends Cupid's arrows straight to your heart. Not all plain sailing, but you're more powerful than you've been in months. There are few magic tricks you can't astonish with and no desires that can't be fulfilled. Believe in yourself.
LIBRA (Sep 23 - Oct 22)
How about allowing yourself to behave as though no one is watching you? That endless desire to please is crippling your progress so much you've almost forgotten who you are. Enough. The planets are mostly back on track and you're being shoved valiantly into the next phase. The abundance planet is still with you, bringing opportunities you didn't know you wanted.
SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
Wednesday's full moon will unlock your inner magician and open the door to miracles. There are new friendships too, reminding you how much you're loved. The communication planet restores your blocked vocal chords on Tuesday, after which you'll be telling them what you think. No need to rush into any world wars. You have the tact and charm to get what you want without bruising a single feather.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 21)
The career is taking all your attention - and if it's not, it soon will be. Sure, there've been a few misunderstandings, but nothing you can't charm your way out of. The planets affect everyone, so they're too busy fixing their own messes to worry about yours. Wednesday's full moon ushers in a generous new cycle - miraculous as long as you know what you want. An attitude shift is required.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 - Jan 19)
Delightfully assertive powers are on call. Don'tbe anxious - you love to be in charge. Remind yourself that leadership is about encouraging them to be their best. How about expanding your own skills? Travel and learning are on the cards. Use the time to develop your interests. You might find yourself on a philosophical or spiritual path. It's a good time to trust your instincts.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18)
For now, happiness is about success. Since your measure of success is different to everyone else's, you'll need to decide what you want. There are lots of opportunities, provided you're willing to make a few giant leaps. You need to watch your health. The communication planet moves back into position on Tuesday, restoring your creative flow. Don't worry about love. Your heart is doing its own thing.
PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20)
Fretting about finances? Pay no attention to the dire warnings around you. Your financial intuition is sparkling, and Wednesday's full moon is in your sign. If ever there was a time to reinvent yourself, it would be now. Of course, you'll have to master a few basic skills - like budgeting, time management and the art of delegation. But everyone has to figure this stuff out eventually.
ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr 19)
The planets have been all over the place and so has your life. They're starting to settle and by the weekend you'll have some idea where you're going. If there've been job changes, celebrate. If you're mulling over what to do next, start small. Communications are back on track from Tuesday. Your personal courage planet is moving in, calming your nerves and steadying your course.
TAURUS (Apr 20 - May 20)
You have all the energy you need. Just as well. Those hidden dramas are sneaking to the surface and you're being forced to make decisions. Change is a natural part of life. Just because you're resisting it, doesn't mean it's not coming. This is a fabulous week for new ventures. Try not to make any big decisions before Wednesday. Lingering confusions could throw you off course if you rush your plans. Slow and steady.
GEMINI (May 21 - June 20)
Never mind what you want for now. Focussing on their needs will lead you to this week's treasure. Take another look at home and family. Are renovations required? Do friends or relatives need your help? Your planets are back in order after Wednesday, ushered in by a life-changing full moon. Visualise your life as you'd like it to be - then work from the outside in. Ask for help.
CANCER (June 21 - Jul 22)
Forgotten what your dreams are? Happily, there's a full moon on Wednesday, urging you on to greater things. Sure, those emotions will take a wobble, but only until they reset in an exciting new way. Now check on the family. They may hide their emotions better than you do, but that doesn't mean they're not affected. This is a healing week for all of you. You're in charge of the meds.
LEO (Jul 23 - Aug 22)
Take a look at your love life. Remember, if your emotions are off, your career always takes a dive. Use this week to remind yourself what love is really about. Look at the people in your life. Ask yourself how they improve your life and how you improve theirs. If you're hanging on to deadwood, rethink. No one is in our lives forever, and every relationship has its timespan. Get ready to let go - and free yourself for the next adventure...
