OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

After a long time attempting to understand someone special – maybe even yourself – this week you are ready to try acceptance instead. 

Accepting what you can’t change, can soothe your heart and open new pathways of hope. 

The sun makes you a brilliant ray of light, spreading warmth and making a radiant mark, at work and home. 

Love is an “X” adventure and luck dials three threes. 

TAURUS

APR 21 – MAY 21

12

Passion for you, right now, may feel something of a mystery with Venus in your eighth house – but it’s one you just want more of, every day. 

So when impulses occur, pay attention. 

The sun moves to your happy-ever-after chart, and a summer date can be back on.

Working in a team is extra rewarding, and a deal linked to “C” is edging closer to closure every day.

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

12

Your career chart is on fire, hot chances can crop up when you are not even looking, so stay aware all week. 

Promoting your personal skills is not easy, but it’s the way to impress a panel or team. 

Love-wise, above all Venus promotes harmony – so in a partnership it’s easier to live, love and learn. 

Single?  You are not imagining how a recently-introduced Pisces is looking at you.

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

12

As the power of the sun stirs your imagination sector, your ideas are hot and happening – but they do need to be shared rather than kept safe, but secret. 

At work, more people await your words than you realise.

The closest bonds in your life grow even closer this week, and your chart mix of Jupiter and the moon takes design dreams and develops them towards real profits. 

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

12

This is not the time to play down your knowledge or experience in a family – so do step forward when advice is required. 

If you’re with a partner, the serious passion has a fun side that fits so seamlessly into your future. 

Yes, you could entertain or intrigue an audience, as a couple. 

If you’re still looking, a music super fan with an irresistible personality can be your next big thing. 

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

12

After so long wondering what to say, Mercury gets words lined up, to make your mark. 

At work, this can open a sealed document or group, to make space for you. 

At home, in the arms of Venus, a couple can grow in more than one direction – so can a family. 

Single? The moon draws you towards someone with many friends, but who’s still so comfortable going it alone.

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

12

Value matters more to you than cost this week – and your greatest investment is the people around you. 

If they’re not giving as much as they take, you can plan some sun-inspired action. 

If you’re in love, the moon maps a path from passion to commitment, but secrets must be shared. 

Single?  Venus is in full connection-mode – so if you want to draw “P” closer, you can. 

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

12

Your sun spell is starting and every special part of you lights up – in public and in private. 

So many VIPs are taking note of your personal impact this week. 

So be sure to appreciate it for yourself. 

Love and loyalty go together, and grow together,  so if you sense any gaps this can be your best week to fill them. 

The luck factor waits where circles are formed.  

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

12

Your Venus appeal grows more powerful every day, and you can focus this on so many situations.

Spreading peace, patience and understanding is your star skill, no one can match you or catch you in this. But a hot Scorpio is very keen to keep trying! 

A store you only visit on specific days can be where your luck factor is found. 

Pluto may divide cash – but then multiples it. 

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

12

Speaking the truth to people you know isn’t always easy – but when you need to do it, you can. 

All week your personal star blend of sun warmth and Mercury responsibility makes you a natural leader, and listener.

In romance, too, you have strong Venus ability to say what everyone else only dares to think. 

Single?  A secret crush is more visible, and possible, than you ever imagine.  

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

12

With the sun strong at the top of your chart you’re at the top of your game. 

So seize this moment to believe 100% in yourself.  

Success may feel hard to sustain sometimes, but keep on keeping on, as this is what will impress key people. 

Even more important, is proving it to yourself. 

Love is sociable and fun, the lightest of laughs can be your first soulmate signal.

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

12

Creating togetherness where there has been conflict is the theme of your family chart, as the moon softens and soothes some prickly feelings. 

When you make a first move, with no strings attached, something special can shift. 

In terms of love, too, Venus sweeps away minor niggles, and only major feelings really count. 

Your learning zone lights up and you can nail a complex task. 

Luck wears dark green.
