OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.
ARIES
MAR 21 – APR 20
It’s hard to count all the ways Mars matters to you – but as your mentor planet moves on, start with money.
Taking control, and being in charge of cash, is second nature this week.
If you see ways to save, or reasons to spend, you can push them through.
Love, too, has hidden worth, and giving yourself time and space to see this, is your happiness key.
TAURUS
APR 21 – MAY 21
Your birthsign mix for the next few weeks is part rebel, part warrior – so look out, world!
In places or partnerships where you have stood back before, you are ready to speak up.
And you step into a leadership role so easily.
Best of all, you trust your own judgement, even when it takes an unexpected twist.
Love-wise, a communication moon can take key talks all the way to a conclusion.
GEMINI
MAY 22 – JUNE 21
Staying strong on certain principles at the start of the week takes you towards creative and emotional freedom by the end.
You are the one person in your life that you can and should believe in 100%.
So if you’ve been doubting any feelings, ideas, or ambitions – this can end.
Passion speaks your name in such a quiet, but compelling, way.
Luck travels round a family circle.
CANCER
JUNE 22 – JULY 22
Holding back on big ideas, waiting for the perfect moment, is not the Mars Way – this week get ready to shake up friendships and social media with what you’re really thinking, and dreaming, right now.
The people who respond best to this, can be a surprise.
In love?
The moon urges a little more selfishness, in terms of time and treats.
Luck listens to a Spanish song.
LEO
JULY 23 – AUG 23
Your ambition zone is on fire – but it’s your own dreams that are number one here, not other people’s.
So try to organise your schedule to include more time for your own writing, creating or just thinking.
This can reap golden rewards.
As for passion, if you’re single, a hands-on teaching session can lead to love.
In a relationship?
Love means listening this week, but without judging.
VIRGO
AUG 24 – SEPT 22
The moon may raise some deep questions about who is really there for you – but answering these can get all relationships in your life on to a new, exciting level.
So don’t be tempted to dodge them.
Coupled-up Virgos have such a caring chart – but with a streak of sheer naughtiness.
If you’re single, this can be your week to go from casual to committed with a hot-cold Aquarius.
LIBRA
SEPT 23 – OCT 23
It’s tempting to brush off any doubts about love, or life – and push on regardless.
This week, you’re ready for the truth, and telling or hearing it gives you special success power.
At work, you tend to dot from project to project, but the moon brings focus now, taking you towards your name on a newly-drafted document.
In the family, try to separate who people are, from what they do.
SCORPIO
OCT 24 – NOV 22
It’s good to be the person who’s patient and understanding – up to a point.
But unless you set your own limits, you can get overwhelmed.
Start today to lay out some ground rules, in a love bond, but also in a family.
Sensitive Neptune makes you a mind-reader, and so sensitive to subtle signals.
This can be your passport to such a fulfilling career. The luck factor selects “76”.
SAGITTARIUS
NOV 23 – DEC 21
Building on what’s working, dealing with what’s not – this is the major effect planet Mars can have on your chart.
So dates or decisions fast-forward several stages.
And it’s so much easier to tell family members what you really feel.
Your love potion links to motion – meet a soulmate as you’re travelling in a new direction, perhaps by a new transport method.
Current couples could both be rehearsing the same words.
CAPRICORN
DEC 22 – JAN 20
You don’t normally run many risks, but Mars is out to change this, so stay alert.
If your heart says to stop trying in love, do also listen to your head.
So many great aspects of a relationship may have been misplaced due to recent challenges, but are on the way back.
If you’re single, guard your heart carefully, until you are sure – perhaps when an Aries suddenly responds.
AQUARIUS
JAN 21 – FEB 18
The moon’s path this week takes you from meeting (maybe at work) to matching within days.
It’s so important to be authentic and not try to play any part – even if you feel this protects your heart.
If you’re attached, dig deep and be honest about where you need more from a partner, and accept responses that may come.
The luck factor is first in line to choose random numbers.
PISCES
FEB 19 – MAR 20
There’s a directness to your communication chart that makes difficult subjects a dream to discuss – yes, you can ask all those questions you’ve been storing inside.
Any role talking on behalf of a group, from a family to a workforce, can feel a great fit.
Your own sign is so sensitive, but you have a sense of proportion, and know exactly when and how to activate tough love.
