Your Stars by Shelley Von Strunckel

Friday, 3 July

ARIES

March 20 - April 18

Saying farewell to arrangements that have been part of your life for ages is no fun. But with every passing day it's becoming increasingly clear that these can't go on as they have. Even the most heroic of your efforts and that of others will only delay their inevitable conclusion.

TAURUS

April 19 - May 19

You suspect certain individuals have been shaping their statements about plans according to the person they're speaking to. So while they haven't exactly been dishonest, they've been economical with the truth. Gently, but firmly, make it clear you've caught on. Then, because you need the facts, begin asking serious questions.

GEMINI

May 20 - June 20

For ages you've been sidestepping certain tricky issues knowing that inevitably, discussions would touch on extremely sensitive situations. But now that there's no choice but to confront these, you may as well deal with them in depth. Once you begin, you'll realise they're far less complicated than you feared.

CANCER

June 21 - July 21

Don't allow anybody, however well meaning, to corner you into commitments. The period in the run up to the Cancer eclipsed New Moon, on the 22nd, must be regarded as a time of exploration. Only after that should you even think of making decisions about your life or your future.

LEO

July 22 - Aug 21

Having struggled to avoid certain burdensome, if not unfair, obligations, you've resigned yourself to them. Bizarrely, in doing so, the events triggered by next week's lunar eclipse give you a chance at least to alter these, if not escape them entirely. Whatever the case, it will be a relief.

VIRGO

Aug 22 - Sep 21

Waste no time justifying to others what you're doing. However, don't confuse that with explaining what you intend to achieve. This involves a point by point discussion of how you're approaching certain objectives, and the timing involved. It has nothing to do with whether or not they're happy about them.

LIBRA

Sep 22 - Oct 22

Nobody would regard you as narrow-minded. But there are certain things you long ago decided held little interest for you, and nothing has been able to convince you otherwise. Now that circumstances beyond your control are forcing you to explore these, you're about to discover they're far more worthwhile than you imagine.

SCORPIO

Oct 23 - Nov 21

Because you rarely form an opinion or make a decision without asking every question you can and considering things from every angle, you rarely need to alter those views. Except for now. Recent revelations about dramatic changes in the actual circumstances involved require a top-to-bottom review of your thinking.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 22
- 20 Dec

Avoid making the mistake of assuming others know what you hope to achieve. True, you've discussed this frankly and often. But situations have changed and so have your objectives. Once you begin talking things over, you'll realise just how much your plans have evolved and, as developments continue, how much further they could go.

CAPRICORN

Dec 21 - Jan 18

Ordinarily you would never agree to rearrange things without knowing exactly what you're committing to. Now, events aren't giving you much choice. As anxious as you're feeling about these, your instincts should also be telling you that they are only accelerating the changes, personal and involving others, you've been hoping for.

AQUARIUS

Jan 19 - Feb 17

Next week's encounter between Jupiter and Neptune in your sign takes the exciting changes that began about two months ago another step further. As before, however, events may not seem like progress, at least when they first arise. Still, your intuition is bound to tell you that something remarkable is taking place.

PISCES

Feb 18 - March 19

Changing plans frequently is annoying to others and disruptive to you. But on no account should you feel guilty, because you're in one of the richest periods of what will prove to have been a pivotal year of your life. Take full advantage of everything that comes your way, however many grumbles you hear.

If it's your birthday on Saturday

With the communicative Mercury powerfully aspecting the scrupulously honest Pluto on your birthday, you'll be examining both your feelings and certain facts with microscopic intensity. Equally, you'll be reviewing what you've said and others' views of you.

If it's your birthday on Sunday

Recently, certain increasingly tense relationship issues have been a concern, so having Venus move into the most intuitive part of your birthday chart should provide welcome insights. Also, because the planet accents charm, discussions will proceed with surprising ease.

If it's your birthday on Monday

Differences with partners, in your personal or professional life, are no indication something's gone wrong. Actually, the stressful moments you and others are experiencing are part of a pattern of growth. One that will, ultimately, prove amazingly rewarding.
