Your daily horoscopes

Libra 24 Sep – 23 Oct

There’s a heavy feeling in the air today, as family or friends get caught up in power plays. Lighten the atmosphere with your natural talent for peacemaking and smoothing troubled waters.

Scorpio 24 Oct – 22 Nov

Strategic Scorpios are born organisers. Some brave souls call you control freaks. Today, aim to relinquish control and let someone else be boss otherwise you’ll run out of steam – and friends.

Sagittarius 23 Nov – 21 Dec

Bossy demands will attract negative reactions from others. Instead, tune into the powerful planetary energy as you patch up personal problems, and deal with disagreements in a thoughtful way

Capricorn 22 Dec – 20 Jan

It’s not your Capricorn right to control everything – and everyone – around you. Today you’ll discover that true serenity lies in accepting others as they are, rather than trying to change them.

Aquarius 21 Jan – 19 Feb

The stars favour getting involved in charitable work with a global reach, or lending a hand to someone closer to home. Don’t accept things at face value today Aquarius – look a lot deeper.

Pisces 20 Feb – 20 Mar

Loved ones or work colleagues will be extra demanding but don’t play the Piscean doormat and let them walk all over you. Balance conflicting needs by aiming for a fair deal for everyone.

Aries 21 Mar – 20 Apr

Frustration will be high and patience will be low, so pace yourself Rams. If you try to push projects – and people – to work to your speed, then you’ll encounter roadblocks at every turn.

Taurus 21 Apr – 21 May

Expect intense communication with others, as the planetary patterns trigger outbursts and power games. If you can keep your stubborn side under control, then you’ll manage just fine.

Gemini 22 May – 21 Jun

Many people will be on the defensive but if you avoid mentioning sex and money you should get through the day OK! Look for creative ways to make money doing something you love.

Cancer 22 Jun – 23 Jul

With touchy Moon/Pluto aspects, today could go one of two ways. Domestic dramas of epic proportions. Or intense encounters that take relationships to deeper and more satisfying levels.

Leo 24 Jul – 23 Aug

It’s a day for focused study and intense conversations. Keep your jealous/possessive streak in check though Lions. Sharing the affection around doesn’t mean there’s less love available for you.

Virgo 24 Aug – 23 Sep

You’re fixated on something and won’t rest until it’s resolved. By all means be thorough and determined about finding a solution, but avoid getting drawn into power games and ego clashes.
