Aries

The Monday morning blues make for a heavy start to the week. Not enough sleep or someone being difficult are energy killers. Happily you’re great at the fresh start. Today proves that even when you can’t change a problem, it’s a different picture when you change your response. Something, or someone, to get excited about is also part of the upswing.

Taurus

If you don’t like the life you’ve got there’s never been a better time to focus on the life that you want. If you’re stuck for answers talk to someone who’s known you for a long time, and whose discretion is beyond doubt. Testing out new technology is an eye opener for speeding up at work. Single? Clock the younger person who’s a breath of fresh air.

Gemini

Your busy life shows no sign of slowing down but you’re getting the message that setting yourself impossible targets is not the fast track to anything. Yet if anyone can “work clever” rather than just working hard, it’s you. The thing you couldn’t possibly have seen coming changes your plans, or your mind. Love works best when you keep things bright and breezy.

Cancer

Feeling slow or low doesn’t put you in the best of moods but the black cloud over your head clears away faster than you expect. News from afar, or a holiday suggestion from someone in the family, reminds you that there really is more to life than your own back yard. Your other half is super supportive or a new love interest will suddenly bring you back to life.

Leo

Take a quiet but firm step back from any situation that has been tiring or upsetting. There may still be someone who’s a thorn in your side but give them less power. Your brief now is to look after yourself and to save your energy for those you love. Go along with a partner’s plans for a memorable evening. Single? A matchmaking friend has got it spot on.

Virgo

The details of recent experiences settle into place. You’ll then see what’s really important, and what just doesn’t matter. Your planet Mercury encourages you to work on a “good-enough” approach, too. Not everything has to be done to perfection. Neither does your home  have to be glossy magazine perfect before you have friends – or a lover – round.  

Libra

Have you been trying too hard to live up to someone else’s expectations or standards? No wonder you feel that you can’t win. It’s out with being a people pleaser and in with knowing what makes you happy. This makes it easier to forge ahead with a plan that you know is right, even if someone close has doubts. An email or text message brings a surprise.

Scorpio

The Monday morning blues make for a heavy start to the week. Not enough sleep or someone being difficult are energy killers. Happily you’re great at the fresh start. Today proves that even when you can’t change a problem, it’s a different picture when you change your response. Something, or someone, to get excited about is also part of the upswing.

Sagittarius

Running late could mess up your morning. Take an honest look at your time keeping, as one small change could make a surprisingly big difference, especially where children are concerned. A partner will do so much more if you’re clear about what’s needed. Single? A meeting of minds is your top turn on. Make time for that someone who’s interesting – and interested.

Capricorn

In spite of careful budgeting something still makes a bigger hole in your bank balance than you’d expected. But expenses are what they are, so don’t dwell on it. At work your ability to stick with a job turns a challenging day into a success. The pace quickens in your love life too. A partner opens up about secret thoughts or a new love interest reveals its true potential.

Aquarius

Learn from the past. You have the chance to break old patterns and to do things differently. Hey presto, you get different results. If your love life has flat-lined the jump leads have just arrived. Be proactive or provocative, keep your other half on their toes and initiate lovemaking. Single? Your next romance is with someone twice divorced. Third time lucky.

Pisces

Waking up to problems isn’t ideal, but such is life. Steering the day into calmer waters, for you and others, then feels so good. In love use your talent for listening between the lines. Feeling disillusioned with romance? How fast a disappointment disappears when someone genuine takes their place. It’s the little things that bring proof that an attraction is mutual.
