Your Stars

- with Patrick Arundell

Aries March 21 – April 20

Protective qualities can emerge and may be very noticeable as dynamic Mars enters Cancer and your home zone for an unusually long eight-week visit. You might be in the mood to bring positive change to your domestic setup, and this could clear the air and create a nurturing atmosphere. Ready to sort through items you no longer need? Have valuables? Get them valued.

Gemini May 22 – June 21

Lacking the drive to earn extra cash? If so, the movement of warrior Mars into Cancer and your money zone could change this, as you’ll be prepared to put energy into making things happen. Whether you sell a few items or start a side business, the work you do now can bring positive rewards. If financial security is an issue, you’ll be more motivated to find ways to resolve this.

Leo July 24 – August 23

You may be busy taking on the world, but as feisty Mars moves into a more introspect­ive zone, the coming weeks can be a call to do battle with your own personal issues. These might become more urgent now and could sabotage your best intentions unless you make time to deal with them. Getting the help of a profession­al to assist with entrenched matters can help you too.

Libra September 24 – October 23

As you take your place on the stage of life, you may feel as though you’re doing a solo act. If you look around though, you’ll realise how much others are supporting you. If there’s something you want to accomplish, then link with those who you trust. Pooling ideas and resources for mutual benefit can see you achieving something important and happy to share any rewards.

Sagittariu­s November 23 – December 21

As Mars moves into the emotional sign of Cancer and a potent zone, you may be ready to face up to feelings that have been squirreled away. This influence can mean you feel them more intensely, and because of this you might be more inclined to do something about them. What needs resolving the most? Start on this issue to unravel those tangled strands and rewire your destiny.

Aquarius January 21 – February 19

Your life may be about to get busier as driven Mars moves into your sector of work and wellness. If you’ve tended to go with the flow more recently, you’ll snap to and be eager to get things moving. Organisati­on can be the key to doing a sterling job and meeting any deadlines. Exercise levels can ramp up too, although any virtuous interest can equally call out.

Taurus April 21 – May 21

You’re all set to make a big splash and to become even more dynamic in your own right. If friends have you down as being reliable but structured, they may get more than they bargained for as you reveal aspects of yourself that might surprise them. Have plans to promote an idea? If so, this is the time to share in heartfelt ways and rouse others’ emotions. You can gain quite an audience.

Cancer June 22 – July 23

There’s a positive shift as fiery Mars moves into your sign for a stay of two months, giving you added courage and inspiring you to stand your ground where necessary. If energy levels have dipped you may now begin to feel more vital, allowing you to get moving on ideas and plans that have been on the back burner. Be proactive concerning self-care, as you’ll have more spark.

Virgo August 24 – September 23

Make a wish come true, as go-getter Mars moves into your sector of dreams and goals. A desire for something may have become stronger, which is a good sign as it means you’re on track and can now gain traction. Your social life also benefits from a surge of vitality, inspiring you to link with friends. Keen to show your appreciati­on to those most loyal? Now’s the time!

Scorpio October 24 – November 22

Going on an adventure could seem very appealing, especially if you have the option to try something fresh. Something is stirring within, and it can be a call to leave the familiar and seize a brilliant opportunit­y. You might be looking for an experience that appeals to your emotions or sense of excitement. Even if it turns out to be a rollercoas­ter ride, you’ll relish all this brings.

Capricorn December 22 – January 20

Expect your emotions to be stirred, as Mars, the red planet, powers into the sensitive Cancer. This planetary shift could churn up deep feelings. You can become more attuned to others’ moods and needs or more assertive about yours. Use this transit to tune into the undercurre­nts of your relationsh­ips while knowing that moods and passions may flare and recede just like the tides.

Pisces February 20 – March 20

Be careful what you wish for as dynamic Mars powers into your sector of passions, desire and romance. You may become conscious of a bond which might not be current but continues to affect you deeply. The coming weeks could be one of the better times to find closure on this but ironically the converse can be true, and someone new can capture your imaginatio­n.
