News & Comments

Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Don't make the mistake of trying to help someone who is their own worst enemy. Yes, it's sad your friend can't ever seem to catch a break. What you're not considering is how this character always manages to sabotage job offers, financial opportunities and relationships. At some point, we are all responsible for our own decisions. Take gossip with a pinch of salt. A jealous neighbour is trying to stir up trouble for someone else in your community.

Taurus (Apr21/May21) It's time to draw some boundaries where friendships are concerned. Some of your loved ones have been asking too much of you. Until you turn them away, they'll continue to infringe on your private life. You're tired of giving people money, a place to stay and job recommendations. You have enough problems of your own. Take this opportunity to relax in the privacy of your own home. Turn off your mobile, pull down the shades and take a long, well earned nap.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) You're a little reluctant to pursue a career in the arts, for fear of living in poverty. Working for a charitable organisation can pose the same problem. Ultimately, a versatile person like you will be able to make ends meet, provided you do some careful planning. Holding down two jobs is a possibility. One can provide you with financial security, while the other gives emotional fulfilment. People born under your sign do best when leading double lives, anyway!

Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Someone is trying to impose their beliefs on you and it's tiresome. You don't want to offend them, but you really find their ideas distasteful. Besides, you don't think it's appropriate to discuss such personal matters with a casual acquaintance. Ultimately, you need to establish stronger personal boundaries. Stop letting people ask you questions that are none of their business. Defend your privacy at all costs; it's precious and needs to be protected.

Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Don't give anyone access to your bank account or personal information. Identity theft is running rampant. The more precautions you take, the safer you will be. You may want to get into the habit of checking your bank and credit card balances on a daily basis. That way, you can alert the bank to any unauthorised activity. If you are in a committed relationship, make sure you have a savings account your partner can't access. It's the smart thing to do.

Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Stop looking the other way at a friend's troubled behaviour. Your loved one could have mental problems or be suffering from substance abuse. There's no harm in having these issues. It's only when somebody refuses to get help that the trouble really begins. An authority figure is tired of granting you time off to deal with personal matters. At some point, you will need to issue an ultimatum. It's not fair to expect you to be on call all the time.

Libra (Sep24/Oct23) You need to be tougher when it comes to work. Colleagues will comment on your efforts, whether you like it or lot. Certain criticisms will strike a chord and help you perfect an already solid project. Others will be mean spirited. When you hear petty remarks, you need to rise above them. Don't let jealousy undermine your progress. Remember, your boss isn't just evaluating your work; they are assessing your ability to handle pressure.

Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Try not to project your needs onto a loved one; the two of you are very different people. You're the type who needs the intensity of a one on one relationship. Your friend, on the other hand, requires lots of company to be happy. Stop trying to limit their friendships, even if it means spending less time together. The more accepting you are of their social circle, the more time they will devote exclusively to you. It's all about give and take.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Sometimes, you put too much pressure on yourself when it comes to your home life. The happy scenes you see on television and the movies are pure fantasy. Real families are fraught with jealousy, insecurity and power struggles. That doesn't mean your relatives are crazy. It just means you are all human. The sooner you accept your loved ones' flaws, the happier you will be. If there's someone who is truly toxic in your midst, you need to cut ties now, while you have a chance.

Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) Daydreaming gets you in trouble; you have a tendency to ease your pain by drifting into a fantasy world. The sooner you face the truth of a painful matter, the better. It's possible a health problem has been weighing on your mind. Instead of worrying about the cause, go to the doctor and find out, for once and for all. If you're not happy with the initial consultation, get a second opinion. A homeopath might be better equipped to assess the situation.

Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) If a moneymaking scheme sounds too good to be true, it probably is. You're tempted to find a job that doesn't seem to involve much hard work. Taking such a position will be cause for regret. Your employer will have underplayed your responsibilities and you'll have to work ten times as hard as you anticipated. Meanwhile, you will have burned your bridges at another institution. Stick with what's familiar, at least now, when people have a tendency to exaggerate their claims.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) People are having a hard time pinning you down. They're not sure what you really believe and at times you're unsure of your own convictions, too. Maybe it's because you're surrounded by so many strong personalities. Going off on your own will be helpful. It's easy to sort out your feelings when there aren't any relatives telling you what to feel and think. You're a lot more compassionate than most other people and shouldn't be embarrassed to admit it.
