Your daily horoscopes

Virgo 24 Aug – 23 Sep

You’re frustrated by some people’s lack of speed and motivation, but it’s not the time to push buttons. Instead, make connections with close friends who focus on solutions, and stay positive.

Libra 24 Sep – 23 Oct

Are you being uncharacteristically insensitive? When it comes to a friend or colleague, take the time to walk a mile in their shoes. Then you’ll have some insight into what they’re going through.

Scorpio 24 Oct – 22 Nov

Venus is in your career zone, which encourages being diplomatic with colleagues, clients or customers. You’ll achieve more from a kind and caring approach than by burning bridges.

Sagittarius 23 Nov – 21 Dec

The next two days aren’t particularly suitable for dealing with a complicated work matter. Mercury and Mars make it hard to focus on the important details. Instead, be patient and wait.

Capricorn 22 Dec – 20 Jan

Prepare for a fiery debate or a complicated drama this weekend. You’re keen to initiate changes, but don’t underestimate the resistance of some people to your plans. Proceed diplomatically.

Aquarius 21 Jan – 19 Feb

With peace-loving Venus visiting your partnership zone – until September 20 – your motto for the moment is from writer Robert Louis Stevenson: “Compromise is the best and cheapest lawyer.”

Pisces 20 Feb – 20 Mar

The planets shine a spotlight on a relationship problem and help you see things from a fresh perspective. Boost your cash flow by pairing up with someone, doing something you both enjoy.

Aries 21 Mar – 20 Apr

Words can cut like a knife! It will be very easy to say the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. So think things through before you speak and choose your words wisely this weekend.

Taurus 21 Apr – 21 May

Time to get busy, Taurus! The more you include family and close friends in your weekend plans, the more fun you’ll have. Being creative – and appreciating the creativity of others – is the key

Gemini 22 May – 21 Jun

There are plenty of unfinished jobs to tackle around the home, so get to it. But be careful when communicating with a family member, as it will be easy to blurt out something that you later regret.

Cancer 22 Jun – 23 Jul

A close relationship with a relative or neighbour could be complicated this weekend. Mercury muddles communication while Mars contributes to moody moments and perhaps some fiery drama.

Leo 24 Jul – 23 Aug

You’re keen to take action and change the status quo. But don’t jump in and be an impulsive Cat. Tune in to your trusty inner voice. It will lead you in the direction that’s right for you.
