Your daily horoscopes

Virgo 24 Aug – 23 Sep

Stop and smell the roses, Virgo! You’re keen to help others this weekend but make sure you put aside some time for solo pursuits as well. Solitude is soul food for you at the moment.

Libra 24 Sep – 23 Oct

Laidback Librans are in the mood for a lazy and languid weekend. But loved ones may have other ideas! Cultural events appeal as you get out and appreciate the creative talents of others.

Scorpio 24 Oct – 22 Nov

Even though it’s the weekend, you can make progress at work as your natural charm wins over colleagues. Deft diplomacy and strategic socialising will get you further than making demands.

Sagittarius 23 Nov – 21 Dec

The planets power up your adventure zone, so it’s a wonderful weekend to take a trip, or plan one for the near future. Mercury is still retrograde though, so double-check all travel arrangements.

Capricorn 22 Dec – 20 Jan

Capricorns are in detective mode! You’ll enjoy reading a murder mystery or researching a topic that intrigues you. If you look beneath the surface, you’ll discover what’s really going on.

Aquarius 21 Jan – 19 Feb

You’re in the mood to compromise, as Venus bestows harmonious vibes in your relationship zone and you strive for peace in your partnerships. But Mars and Uranus also stir up your restless side.

Pisces 20 Feb – 20 Mar

It’s a day when the lines between fact and fantasy could become blurred. Your imagination is firing, but it’s not a good time to make momentous decisions. Be a patient Piscean and wait.

Aries 21 Mar – 20 Apr

Mars and Uranus shine on relationships with children, teenagers and friends this weekend. Focus on the similarities you share as you celebrate their strengths and encourage their dreams.

Taurus 21 Apr – 21 May

Bulls are in the mood for some peaceful R & R – preferably at home. So it’s a wonderful weekend to beautify your living space via a quick clean-up and declutter. Then sit back and relax.

Gemini 22 May – 21 Jun

Geminis will feel extra-gregarious as Mars and Uranus rev up your social side. But Mercury is still retrograde until Tuesday. So beware the tendency to put your foot firmly in your mouth!

Cancer 22 Jun – 23 Jul

Waiting for opportunities to come to you usually works well for cautious Crabs, but not this weekend. If there’s something – or someone – you really want, then you’ll have to be proactive.

Leo 24 Jul – 23 Aug

With Mercury, Venus and Mars in your sign, it’s time to be bold and beautiful. Get a confidence boost from fellow Leo, Madonna: “I stand for doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.”
