Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Don’t jump to conclusions if you hear a juicy piece of gossip. It’s possible this story is being spread by someone who wants to destroy a rival’s reputation. By refusing to take the bait, your reputation as an intelligent sceptic will chase opportunists away. Don’t let your fears get in the way of taking a trip to a faraway land. Getting a change of scenery is just what you need. An adventurous person like you craves variety. When you don’t get it, misery sets in.
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Neither a lender nor a borrower be. Romance and finance do not mix, as you well know. If you need money, ask friends to alert you to any job openings that become available. They’ll be happy to help you in this capacity. If a loved one is experiencing financial hardship, offer to find them work. If your offer is refused, you can console yourself with the knowledge you did try to help. Some people prefer sponging off others to making their own way in life.
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Don’t bend the truth with your best friend, lover, or business partner. Your lie will be immediately discovered, and the resulting distrust will be disastrous. You can’t work with someone who always doubts you. If you’re single, it may be because you convey a false impression. Don’t pretend to be interested in popular trends when you’re really captivated by obscure pursuits. It’s the quirky things about you that make you so attractive.
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) It will be difficult for you to find a use for your expertise. Although it pains you to do so, you need to take a job that is beneath your skill set. Don’t let this hurt your pride. In this economy, everyone must do what is necessary to pay the bills. Fortunately, your new job will put you in contact with some very accomplished colleagues. These contacts will be invaluable in a few weeks’ time, when a position in your desired industry finally becomes available.
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Buying someone’s affection will create a shaky foundation for a romance. You want to be sure of your amour’s love. Securing it with expensive jewellery, clothes, and gadgets will always make you wonder about their true motives. If you’re already in a relationship, the two of you will reach an impasse. No matter how much you beg and plead, your partner will refuse to meet your needs. Maybe it’s time to attend counselling together. An expert will help you broach the gap.
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Don’t overanalyse a family matter; a quirky relative won’t listen to reason. You’ll have to appeal to their vanity if you’re going to change their mind. If that means making an insincere compliment or an outrageous promise, so be it. It’s more important to spur your loved ones into action than be scrupulously honest. Your best friend, business partner, or lover expects something for nothing. It’s time to set the record straight. You’re through with doing jobs for little or no reward.
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) If you’re going to master a subject, you have to do some serious studying So don’t let distractions get in the way. Stay off the Internet, turn off your mobile, and lock yourself away in a quiet room. Stay away from starchy foods and intoxicating beverages. You need to be as mentally sharp as possible to retain all the information that’s before you. A mechanical breakdown will make you late for an appointment. Make sure you have your friend’s number before leaving.
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Keep track of your spending or hard earned money will slip through your fingers. If you happen to buy an expensive gadget, you’d be wise to keep the receipt and take out a warranty. These days, companies cut corners with merchandise. Shoddily made products are more the rule than the exception. Don’t put too much stock in flirtatious remarks. This so called admirer wants more from you than a relationship. You deserve a lover who can pay their own way.
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Exaggerating your knowledge of a subject will cause people to distrust you. Be scrupulously honest, even if it means admitting your ignorance. If an expert realises you lack critical knowledge, they will take you under their wing. Studying alongside this teacher will give you valuable training. It will also put you in line for an important job. You won’t be able to talk sense to a relative who is obsessed with status symbols. Let them make their own mistakes.
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) You can’t afford to get lost in a fantasy world; face the facts, no matter how unpleasant they are. If you find you need more money, start looking around for a better paying job. Put yourself on a strict budget. Start putting a percentage of every pay packet into savings. These measures will be temporary, but will make a permanent impact on the way you view money. Contrary to popular thought, you don’t need to spend a lot to savour life.
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) If you’re going out for a night on the town, remember some friends don’t have a lot of spare cash. You may be better off throwing a little soiree at your place. That way, people won’t have to dig deep to pay for food and drinks they can’t afford. It may be necessary to defer a dream project for financial reasons. Don’t worry; you can return to this endeavour later. Right now, you need to focus on fulfilling some mundane responsibilities.
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Erratic behaviour will cause people to lose respect for you. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Going back on your decisions will just make everyone’s life harder. If you’re not sure which direction to take, ask a trusted buddy. Their advice will be invaluable in leading your team to victory. There’s no harm in asking for help when you feel like you’re out of your depth. In fact, it’s the smart way to handle things.
