The Sun opposes Saturn across the Gemini-Sagittarius axis. Where this aspect works well is in bringing to the fore the need for life appraisal and determining limitations. If you haven’t already considered a life-audit, this could be the time to do so. For some, this could be forced on them by others who feel they’re not making the most of opportunities Your ruling planet, Venus, appears as an Evening star as of Monday, June 6th. Anticipation could build over the next seven days. Though costs both financial and emotional may be high, it’s probable that an end is in sight and that by the solstice on June 20th, you will feel to have made a shrewd investment. As happened last year, the Sun in your sign opposes Saturn in Sagittarius. It could again feel as though you’ve hit a brick wall. Of course, for some this might mark the longawaited acceptable conclusion of a chapter. For others, facing limitations - whether these are through health, lack of support or finance could be disappointing. The Sun opposes Saturn in Sagittarius and so accents the work and health area of your solar chart. It would be wholly understandable if you found the end of this week particularly tough going. Of course not all Cancerians will experience this but those who are already trying to pour more into the day than is normal, may find this tough going. If you’re into drama, you might enjoy all that’s on offer over the next seven days.With others determined to complete projects and kick certain matters into touch, even watching their race against time might appeal to you.Yet the Sun’s opposition to Saturn at the end of the week will surely affect you too. At the end of the week, the Sun opposes Saturn across the Gemini Sagittarius axis.These are Mutable signs like your own so it’s probable that you will tune into this particular planetary chord. Though you did have experience of this last year, it was three decades earlier when this aspect last affected you.

As is the case for most signs, you may be tuned into an impending deadline. This could have publishing, legal or international implications. It might also be exceedingly important to you that the written word is checked and then checked again. The Sun opposes Saturn across the Gemini Sagittarius axis All signs are likely to experience a crunch moment before next weekend. The Sun opposes Saturn across the Gemini-Sagittarius axis. All signs will of course experience this, - but each in different ways. Those born under your sign could experience this as a financial or ethical brick wall.

It may be that an aspect at the end of the week marks a significant timeline. For some, this could mark the closing of a chapter. True, there might still be an echo to be heard in 12 months’ time. Even so, it’s likely you are preparing for moving on. Over next weekend there is a New Moon in Gemini (your opposite sign). If work feels harder than usual that may be because it is. Just ahead of the weekend the Sun opposes Saturn (your ruling planet) across the Gemini -Sagittarius axis. Those of your sign could find things particularly tough going. Any effect may be exaggerated by the fact that others appear to be running around like headless chickens unaware of looming deadlines As you probably know, those of your sign are said to be sensitive to the movements of both Saturn and Uranus. At the end of this working week the Sun and Saturn oppose one another across the Gemini-Sagittarius axis. Obviously, all signs should be affected. You though, could tune into this particular planetary chord. It might suit you to issue an ultimatum. The Sun and Saturn oppose one another across the backbone of your solar chart. By the end of this week you should be clear about limitations and the responsibilities headed your way. A timeline might suit you very well indeed. What is uncovered by you mid week might seem to others to have been the result of diligent research and hard work.

DVD of the week

Rentabox

Creed

Maybe you’re renovating, and need somewhere safe for your belongings. Or have you grown out of your home or shed? Do you need outdoor storage that is right here in the city? Whatever your needs, Rent-A-Box is the solution for you. Rent-A-Box offers facilities for short and long term storage in the Six Cross Roads Business Park on the outer ring road less than 10 minutes from Tramore. Their containers are 20ft x 10ft and they can even bring the box to you to fill. Visit rentabox.ie for more information.

Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, boxing champion Apollo Creed, who died before Adonis was born. However, boxing is in his blood, so he seeks out Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) and asks the retired champ to be his trainer. Rocky sees much of Apollo in Adonis, and agrees to mentor him, even as he battles an opponent deadlier than any in the ring. With Rocky’s help, Adonis soon gets a title shot, but whether he has the true heart of a fighter remains to be seen

Alice Through the Looking Glass After slipping through a mirror, Alice (Mia Wasikowska) finds herself back in Wonderland with the White Queen (Anne Hathaway), the Cheshire Cat, the White Rabbit, Tweedledee and Tweedledum. Her friends tell her that the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) is depressed over the death of his family. Hoping to save his loved ones, Alice steals the Chronosphere from Time (Sacha Baron Cohen) to travel into the past where she encounters the younger Hatter and the evil Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter).

App of the week

The Pier Falls by Mark Haddon

Everalbum

Mark Haddon, author of the international bestselling novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time has returned with a collection of short stories. In The Gun, a man’s life is marked by a single afternoon and a rusty .45; in The Island, a mythical princess is abandoned on an island in the midst of war; in The Boys Who Left Home to Learn Fear, a cadre of sheltered artistocrats sets out to find adventure in a foreign land and finds the gravest dangers among themselves.

Apps have gotten so out of control, we now need apps to help keep other apps in line. Everalbum is your one-stop shop for keeping all your photos in one place, no matter what platform they’re shared on–whether Instagram, Dropbox, Facebook or Google Photos. You can also share albums with friends, even if they don’t use Everalbum. So it’s user friendly and super simple.
