What’s in Your Stars?

Aries

20th March-20th April

It’s the time when legendary Demeter and Persephone, mother and daughter, play amongst the purples and yellows of spring growth, so plant the seeds of the next phase. Those plans you’ve been formulating now need putting into action. A family event is in its infancy. It’s up to you to nurture it until it grows into the full-blown celebration expected.

Taurus

20th April-21st May

In the age of Taurus (sometimes given as 4320BC-2160BC) Britain was known as “the Sacred Island of the White Bull”. Like national prototype John Bull, it signals steadfastness and dependability – both qualities you own. Mars hurtling through Aquarius this Spring challenges traditional values with progressive ones. You will know which to hold on to!

Gemini

21st May-21st June

Being the networker of the Zodiac creates problems because you can spread yourself too thinly. This frenetic pace generates stress, so the message is to slow down and catch your breath! Really, it’s all about not squandering your resources, be they financial, physical or emotional. As far as career’s concerned, don’t overextend and all will be well.

Cancer

21st June-23rd July

I’ll start with a metaphor: I’ll start with a metaphor: on a primitive loom, the shuttle has to be thrown through the open threads at a precise moment or the weave is spoilt. It’s the same for you: grasp the opportunity being presented to you shortly for it won’t come again. You’ve luck on your side, but it needs your input and good timing to ensure victory.

Leo

23rd July-23rd August

There’s a bit of a struggle going on between your head and your heart just now and a compromise needs to be found. It’s something to do with freedom of expression, so perhaps it’s not what’s said but how it’s said that matters. Sometimes the truth hurts: think for a moment before you express it, then find a way to package it in ribbons!

Virgo

23rd August-23rd September

Knots represent a sealed bargain, so before you tie yourself up in them be sure you know what you are agreeing to. Is it as good as the paper it’s written on? A Full Moon in Virgo in March symbolises bringing matters to a close. You’re exceptional at reading between the lines, so scrutinise for all you’re worth – no hasty scanning!

Libra Scorpio

23rd September-22nd October

King Solomon had it right and chose wisdom over wealth; his name means ‘peaceful’. It’s a pity he’s not among us today – perhaps there’d be more balance in the world. For you, both wisdom and balance are within your psyche, so tap into them to solve a problem around Easter celebrations. Remember, quality trounces quantity every time. Love and peace!

23rd October-22nd November

Over 4,500 years since it was and chose wisdom over wealth; his name built on the Egyptian plain, the Great built on the Egyptian plain, the Great Pyramid is still a mystery holding countless secrets. Why is it there? What happened to its tip? What coded messages lie within its walls? You have a similar enigmatic energy about you. This Spring, try to be more open about what’s going on in your head as it’s a puzzle to those around you.

Sagittarius

22nd November-21st December

I wandered lonely as a cloud, / That floats on high o’er vales and hills, / when all at once I saw a crowd, / A host, of golden daffodils; / Beside the lake, beneath the trees, / Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Hopefully a bit of Wordsworth will inspire you to get out and seek some country air, as introspection’s created cobwebs which need clearing out!

Capricorn Aquarius Pisces

21st December-20th January

You’re a romantic but who would ever know? You hide behind a serious, businesslike facade most of the time and in most settings you encounter. In April, when Venus moves through the sign of Pisces for three weeks, focus your mind on what that represents. Here’s a clue: romanticism and sensitivity. Lower the drawbridge and invite both in!

20th January-19th February

Mars in your sign throughout most of March and April gives you the edge. Where others are slow to act you can be quick off the mark. This will channel your restlessness and allow you to be more productive. Ideas are flowing and, as you’ll discover, putting them to good use will pay dividends. It looks like your runway is clear for takeoff!

19th February-20th March

March starts with a New would ever know? You hide behind a most of March and April gives you the Moon in your sign; you can now turn Moon in your sign; you can now turn the page on an old chapter. Long before intensive farming turned natural cycles on their head, the festival of Easter was when hens started laying again after winter. I’m not suggesting you lay an egg – but you could lay the foundation to a new, creative stage of your life.
