ASTROLOGY

Your year ahead will be lively, energetic and outgoing at times and rather withdrawn at others. You will want a chance to ponder over important personal issues. You’ll need to tackle joint finances. If you don’t take control then it won’t happen.

Today your good feelings will rub off on to everyone around you so you will be much appreciated. Jupiter, planet of good fortune, is in the area of your chart which rules friendships, group efforts, and future plans. So you will be attracted to any team or group efforts.

Today Venus is in aspect to Jupiter which will help to lift your spirits quite considerably. You will probably be feeling quite lazy and indulgent. But anything you turn your hand to at work or out in the world should work well, though the more effort you put in the higher your rewards will be.

You have known for some time that you need to bring more discipline into your working life. So today try to make sure that you have got the right kind of people around to give you a nudge in the right direction. If you soften your approach you will get away with almost everything.

Today you want to be amused and entertained and have more fun. If you can grab a couple of hours off during the day you’ll find that everything does work well. Major life changes will be negotiated more smoothly than usual for you while Jupiter is around in the deepest area of your chart.

Today try to be wary of taking all the advice offered by certain close companions. They will be optimistic but maybe not very realistic. Basically honest and fair-dealing yourself, you expect everyone else to be the same. This can set you up for disappointment since you will tend to see what you want to see.

This is a good time for your social life because you can help to build bridges. You will communicate about work matters with more confidence. And your knack of being able to extract sense from complex situations will bring you favourable comments from influential people.

Today you won’t be able to be very self-disciplined: You really can’t be bothered to work hard or be practical. Jupiter is now in your chart area of creativity and self expression. So you will be more of an entertainer than usual, rather flashy and flamboyant and very lucky.

This is a day when you can say what you feel about other people and put them at their ease. So clearly you are going to be very much appreciated. Slightly sentimental, you will be glossing over the unpleasant realities of the past and attempting to see only the best in those closely related to you.

Venus is now in aspect to Jupiter which should soothe things down. The general mood will be agreeable which will definitely help to lift your spirits. You will be able to recognise any silver linings around. Today you will have the chance to travel around a good deal, mainly on short distance hops.

Today be on the watch if you go shopping as you are likely to be buying yourself indulgences and nothing really very practical. And you may well be spending just to impress other people. Money at the moment is fairly easy come, easy go. You are spending as extravagantly as you acquire it.

There will be a very nice, outgoing kind of feeling around today. You are feeling more up now after your recent rather stressful experiences, and much more courageous than usual. Your opinions are very firmly held, but watch a tiny tendency to being overly confident.

Today can be useful for financial matters. But you won’t be very good about detail so leave other people to do the more practical things. You will be good at charming the important people around. But you may not be sensible at seeing people’s shortcomings at the moment.
