YOUR WEEKLY HOROSCOPE | October 17 to 23 2021

LIBRA

September 23 to October 22

Good news. The career path is smoothing out - allowing for some relaxation and even a day off. Spend it with people you love. The money is about to come rolling in – slowly at first, but definitely on its way. By now you have hopefully learnt that your personal value is not dependent on your bank balance. But maybe not. Work on that – or it will trip you up. By tomorrow, the planets will be in a better mood. Save your speeches till then.

SCORPIO

October 23 to November 21

Go ahead! Make that commitment you’ve been dithering over for the past year. What’s the big deal? You know perfectly well there’s nothing worse than indecision – so go for a definite yes or no. Besides, you’ve been running behind schedule for so long, you’ve almost forgotten what the schedule was. It’s time to get back on track. And to stop taking yourself so darn seriously. Tomorrow’s planetary shifts will give you all the courage you need.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 to December 21

Your love life is calling. And just because you’re tired of the misunderstandings doesn’t mean it’s okay to stop trying. Besides, that macho indifference isn’t fooling anyone. Everyone wants to be loved. You too. So look again. If it’s time to part, do it with care. Or better still, wait for next week and think again. You’ll probably have some completely new thoughts by then. Meanwhile, look out for interesting business opportunities. A couple are already on their way.

CAPRICORN

December 22 to January 20

Admit it. You haven’t looked this good in ages. And that’s before the plastic surgery – which you can now afford to pay for, if you still want it. You’re having fun too – not wild fun, but certainly enough for an undemanding creature like you. The love life has stabilised, and you can now, with a clear conscience, devote yourself to the process of making even more money. Just keep your options open. A fascinating new cycle is on its way.

AQUARIUS

January 20 to February 18

You’re at your eloquent best – so if you’ve got anything to say, write or sell, get on with it. What’s more, the planets of luck, money and great communication are moving in tomorrow.  Use their energies to capitalise on all the goodies you want to call your own. The only thing to watch now is a sudden overly possessive streak. This level of jealousy is not like you – so explain that you’ll get over it. And then have a long chat with yourself.

PISCES

February 19 to March 20

As you’re about to discover, there’s a vast difference between unconscious expectation and personal reality. So avoid disappointment by looking at what you’ve got, instead of what you think you want. There’s a wonderful planetary shift tomorrow, giving you a week off  to think and plan. Don’t waste it sitting about bemoaning lost dreams. Make new ones. Then take some action to bring them closer. Fear is your only obstacle.

ARIES

March 21 to April 19

There’s drama at work. Not enough to walk out on, but certainly enough to stir the blood. The fact is, the planets are convinced you’re bored with too much certainty  so they’ve thrown you a curve. You may change your line of work, or start something on your own. Either is good. The point is, ruts are creative deaths. By tomorrow the planets will have shifted to a much better space – and it’ll be time for a change.

TAURUS

April 20 to May 20

And who could fail to notice that glow of inner confidence and joy? Suddenly the world seems like a wonderful place. You’re learning to like yourself more and beginning to understand the real value of intimacy. And yes, there are risks involved. But the potential for rewards is equally powerful. At work, launch new projects. Your efforts are about to be noticed. And someone is extremely keen to join your adventure.

GEMINI

May 21 to June 20

A spot of excitement never did anyone any harm. And sure, your love life has all the appeal of a hornet’s nest. But, truthfully, isn’t it fun? There are screaming matches, oversensitive melodramas, childish tantrums – and the making up. Obviously someone with your limited attention span will tire of these games fairly soon. But for now, enjoy yourself. This’ll make a great book, if nothing else. By next week, the planets will be sailing more smoothly. And you can smile again.

CANCER

June 21 to July 22

Your courage has left you, and you’re wondering where to turn. Don’t fret. Everyone’s feeling the pressure of planets gone mad – and there’s no reason why sensitive little you should be left out. The plan is to unearth the buried, and let it all go. Work, at least, is going fabulously. But the problem is, you’re no longer sure what you want. Use this week to think. By next week, you’ll be in a much better space.

LEO

July 23 to August 22

Those financial instincts are flying. If you can stand still for long enough to focus, this would be the perfect time to invest. In just about anything. In fact, you might think of charging for your fabulous intuition. Needless to say, though, the standard Leo madness will attempt to throw you overboard. The idea is to do something mature and grown-up with your money. Try it. Sanity is the key. Make your decisions after tomorrow.

VIRGO

August 23 to September 22

Uh oh. Just when the career’s going so well and the money is starting to arrive, your attention is being dragged elsewhere. No matter. Whether it’s drama with the siblings or nightmares with the kids, you’ll doubtless cope in that marvellously unflappable manner. The point is, the gods are giving with one hand and taking with the other. Focus on the good stuff. The planets start moving in a much better direction from tomorrow.
