Aries

March 21 to April 20

Feel confused or out of your depth, Aries? It’s wise not to make matters worse by pushing yourself too hard. Perhaps the best way to handle this is to switch off and take a break. If your work is on your mind when it has no reason to be, try turning your attention to something positive. Better still, get involved in enjoyable activities and you’ll soon feel recharged.

Taurus

April 21 to May 21

If it feels good, carry-on Taurus, and make the most of it. This may seem like obvious advice, but with Mercury making a tough aspect, it might be ignored. Instead, you could feel you have to knuckle down and try harder to get something done. If a plan or project is going nowhere, then admit it and leave well alone. You can always come back to it again when the mood takes you.

Gemini

May 22 to June 21

If you’re having difficulty doing something that’s good for you, it might be because you doubt you’ll carry on. It doesn’t have to be too ambitious either, but could be something simple like learning a skill or taking regular steps to reach a desired goal. Making a daily commitment and sticking with it no matter how you feel, can soon bring the changes you seek. You can do it!

Cancer

June 22 to July 23

The Moon’s tie with Chiron makes this a day for conversations that enlighten as well as heal. Have something to share? Talking with a trusted confidant could give you a fresh perspective, but also leave you less burdened. On another note, adopting a can-do attitude to an idea or opportunity is the first step towards making it a reality. Don’t let negativity stop you, Cancer.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

Whether you work with your head or your hands, you could easily overdo it and find you have no spark left over for anything else, Libra.

And you’ll end up getting so much more done.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

The coming days look positive, if you’re willing to get something out of the way first. Even so, you’ve likely been putting this off and have no inclination to tackle it. If you’ve made a promise, then tension may be starting to build, so this could be a time of reckoning. Tap into the power of Mars’s aspect to Jupiter. Find something to feel enthusiastic about, and you’ll soon get it done.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

You could be thrilled about an ambitious idea, if it weren’t for issues that seem to be in the way. Dwell on them for too long, and you may decide they’re too big to conquer, when this might not be the case at all. With just a little confidence the way can open up for you. With Jupiter your guide planet working to boost your self-belief, this is a fabulous time to go for it anyway, Archer.
