It’s not the best idea to rely on others to do things for you, even if they have the best of intentions. Life seems to be full of extra speedbumps for everyone at the moment, including tricky issues that don’t have immediately obvious answers. Guard against throwing good money after bad. A wait and see policy with a new love interest is also the best way forwards.

If someone in the family is having a tough time or refuses to speak, talk things through with a confidante or someone you trust. Wounds heal slowly so be patient. A visit to a psychic could prove revealing and help your understanding around a sudden loss. Your friends are a welcome diversion. Allow yourself to be talked into joining an alternative lecture or group.

If plans hit a snag, think of it as a blessing in disguise. Maybe you didn’t want something as much as you thought. Generous Jupiter in your sign has better things up his sleeve, so be ready to say yes to something more up your street. A special moment with a child reminds you what you do everything for. Single? Someone who gets under your skin wants to get under your sheets. Make your response very clear.

You don’t need a Monday for a fresh start but as it happens this is perfect timing. The weekend wasn’t easy and you’ll need to shake off a worry or a disappointment. Get back into the power of now and focus on where you can make a difference, whether it’s blitzing your housework or having a great day at work. Fixing a date night also puts a smile on your face.

It’s not like you to be undecided but take your time about an important travel or educational decision. It’s not easy to choose if all options are not quite what you want so why not delay? Trust that something else will come up. The Moon joins lucky Jupiter in your sign so party, do more, get creative or revamp your image – new clothes, new colours, new you.  

There’s little chance of keeping your feelings in check. Whether you’re experiencing passion or rage, you’re not capable of holding back. Perhaps it’s time to cut ties with an individual or a situation that is becoming toxic, or you may be grieving a relationship that’s in the past. Whatever your personal situation, be bold and take action. A quiet night in is the ideal tonic.

A relative or grown-up child moving into your place could have you rearranging more than the furniture. Make them welcome, but don’t turn your whole life upside down to suit them. An invitation somewhere within walking distance gets you out of the house and gives you a chance to put the world to rights with friends. Single? Someone with wavy hair is just your type.
