8 – 14 November

ARIES {Mar 21–Apr 20}
Recently you could survive on confidence alone, however now that your go-getting ruler Mars has moved out of extravert Leo and into practical Virgo; planning and organisation will serve your needs better now.

TAURUS {Apr 21–May 21}
Something’s getting under your skin and while you feel justified in your protests, it may be an error to make too bold a statement or accusation. Because there is yet more to this picture than you can see.

GEMINI {May 22–June 21}
Despite thwarted efforts that undermined your natural buoyancy, on the inside you are quietly confident. Let the lost wonder around outside, you can be un-rattled from grace as within you lies sincere lashings of strength and optimism.

CANCER {June 22–July 22}
Being imaginative is great, unless someone’s upset you. Then it becomes a monster; which can destroy friendships, as you begin to imagine how malicious they are. The truth is, your feelings tell you about how you feel, nothing more.

LEO {July 23–Aug 22}
You should start to see financial upgrades and recognition, for your persistent efforts will win the favour of those who have influence. Creatively you’re at a high point, so write that book, paint that picture, make that journey or sing that song!

VIRGO {Aug 23–Sep 22}
You’ve got a really great thing going on right now. You’re going to be driven to action as Mars is pumping through your sign! You can feel rightly empowered as your creativity and ingenuity is reaching a climax.

LIBRA {Sep 23–Oct 22}
You’re at the heart of a new wave of exciting ideas. You naturally want to make a difference so being bolder and stepping out of your comfort zone could be your best move. You will adapt into a brave new world with surprising ease, because you’re ready.

SCORPIO {Oct 23–Nov 21}
Frustrated friends may seem to nit-pick, you’ve got to be the one who leads the way to co-operative teamwork. Your buttons may be pushed beyond normal limits especially if you’re too attached to your habits.

SAGITTARIUS {Nov 22–Dec 20}
Flared passions give rise to an increased workload. Taking on more can boost your income but also pile on the pressure. Be careful not to over do it and wind up irritable, as this could lead to you snapping at the wrong person.

CAPRICORN {Dec 21–Jan 19}
Being adventurous can lead to a break through. Sometimes it’s difficult for you to cut loose and surrender to a spontaneously creative force. Currently, it’s a matter of will; that which you resist – persists. Dive in.

AQUARIUS {Jan 20–Feb 19}
From the outside, it seems as if everything is fine. Underneath the surface of an apparently idealistic set up there’s something brewing. Change your attitude; there’s nothing a little creative re-invention can’t fix.

PISCES {Feb 20–Mar 20}
While others are deemed confronting and critical, it could actually be the other way around. You’re not the only sensitive sign in the zodiac. Friends can help you to transform and grow, although the road may be fraught with an unnecessary amount of conflict.
