Your Stars for the week

Aquarius Jan 28 - Feb 18. Beware of saying one thing, but doing another. Your reputation is on the line here. It will be hard for colleagues to trust you if they think you're flip-flopping. A money-making opportunity could fall into your lap. One minute, you'll be worried about paying the bills; the next, you'll be treating yourself to a sumptuous meal. Dark thoughts could prevent you from having a good time with your neighbours. Brush your fears aside and join the fun. Nobody likes a wet blanket.

PISCES FEB 19 - Mar 20

Money could be tight this week, which is really frustrating. You may not be able to afford all the things you have planned. Don't make lame excuses; be truthful. Friends won't judge you, but they will offer help, both emotional and financial. Accept the former and refuse the latter. One way or another you'll find your way out of a monetary maze and build a better budget for the future. In the meantime thank your lucky stars for the wonderful people you have around you.

Aries Mar 21 - Apr 19

This will be a week of pleasant surprises, particularly where your career is concerned. You could be praised and rewarded for a job you did months ago. Alternatively, an employment agency could ask you to come in for an interview. Don't pass up any opportunity to sit before authority figures. These meetings could lead to some incredible opportunities. If you're thinking of switching industries, follow the impulse. You could find success in real estate, banking, or construction.

Taurus Apr 20 - May 20

Troublesome thoughts could undermine your calm composure if you're not careful. Instead of trying to shove these worries aside, talk about them with a trusted friend. This is the best way to come to term with your anxieties. You may discover that they disappear after being exposed to the light. It may be necessary to revise plans to return to school or go on a long distance trip. Delays with a legal matter could also crop up. Be patient and you will win through.

Gemini May 21 - June 20

You should be expecting to receive a reward or bonus for a job well done. Use this money to go on a spiritual pilgrimage you've always wanted to take. A friend may not be able to afford to accompany you. Try to be gracious about this situation. You may be disappointed, but your friend is even more down about it. On a practical note you should think long and hard before making any commitments about the future. You may find your views and values are changing.

Cancer Jun 21 - Jul 22

An angry confrontation with people in power could badly backfire. If you want to keep things on an even keel, you should keep your thoughts to yourself. Fortunately, a business associate or romantic partner is sympathetic to your plight. Look to this person for support whenever you feel like blowing your top. Alternatively try some new chill out techniques of your own, exercise, reading or meditation will help you take your mind to a higher plain.

Leo Jul 23 - Aug 22

You may not have enough knowledge to work independently. This situation really bothers you so why not expand your education with a little web study or a visit to the library? You're sure to learn some valuable skills along the way. Be open to a generous colleague's advice, even if it seems weird or wacky. Their methods will be unconventional, to say the least, but they could bring home the bacon in a very unexpected and unorthodox way.

Virgo Aug 23 - Sep 22

The funding for a project could fall through at the last minute and you may be tempted to abandon it altogether. Look to a lover or child for inspiration, their youthful enthusiasm will give you the courage to go on. If you're single, you could meet someone special on a work related event. Already in a relationship? It may be time to conceive or adopt a child. You're eager to add somebody to this happy equation. Keep following these hopeful instincts.

Libra Sep 23 - Oct 22

Your home and family will be a wonderful source of pleasure. You may even be inspired to launch a business from your living room. The ability to control your environment will be a powerful incentive to move this plan forward. It's hard for you to feel inspired when you've been relegated to drab and uninspiring surroundings. The desire to break free of a demanding boss could also prompt you to venture out on your own. You've never responded well to bullying.

Scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21

This would be a great time to learn a new way of working or relating to people. This process could get long winded and tiresome, but it will be rewarding. In this day and age, you can't afford to be a one-trick pony. Try not to talk down to a colleague who isn't as quick-witted as you. You may not know it now, but you'll need this person's support in the very near future. Romance could make its way into your life quite unexpectedly.

Sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21

Working from home would be a great idea. You do best when you're comfortable. Making business calls in your pyjamas will feel wonderfully liberating. Your sexual side may not get the satisfaction you seek this week, which is enormously frustrating. Resist the temptation to seduce a reluctant lover. By honouring your amour's feelings, you'll pave the way for a more satisfying experience later next week, but patience has never been your strong suit.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19

Don't be too heavy handed with a relative they will respond better to logic than force. "Do as I say, not as I do," will fall on deaf ears. A close friend may try to push you to go against your instincts so stick to your guns and stand firm. It may be necessary to take a break from this relationship. Basically, this week will force you to choose your battles. You need to learn when to fight, when to walk away and when to keep a low profile.
