Leo (23 July – 22 August)
Just shut up for a minute and try not to nuke the entire family in one go. If there’s an argument, especially if it concerns money, WALK AWAY! No matter how strong the urge is to fight back, remember – history is written by the survivors. Celebrate your birthday in true Leo style – lots of people, lots of noise and lots of LURVE. Hail to the Sun God! He sure is a Fun God! Ra! Ra! Ra!

Virgo (23 August – 22 September)
Don’t you hate it when life doesn’t follow the manuals, Virgo? Well, in this case, it would be best to follow your instinct – you know that odd thing that has never let you down? There’s something you are about to discover that can change your outlook on Life, the Universe and Everything. Stick around and watch the bright ideas flow in, especially the money-making ones …

Libra (23 September – 22 October)
Early to bed and early to rise makes people suspicious, Libra. How about you calm down a bit and get really organized and really CALM for the sake of everybody, mostly your partner? You are stressing him/her beyond endurance. How about some special time together, doing something special that he/she would enjoy? Whether you do or not is beside the point, we don’t care.

Scorpio (23 October – 21 November)
Good fortune will find you, providing you give directions. So let go of the complaining etc. and do the right thing – get your act together if you want positive things to take place. This will greatly benefit your partner too (I can hear the tearing of his/her hair even as we speak!) If you get yourself down in the dumps, it’s a long, long way to climb back out, and your partner may turn a deaf ear.

Sagittarius (22 November – 21 December)
Pay attention, Sag! Fear is the darkroom where negatives develop … Get yourself up and going – you need to make That Decision and do it fast – there are others depending on your answer. Don’t make travel plans yet, you don’t get off that easily! AFTER the decision you can, AFTER. Can you spell it? Think carefully, but really, really, do it sometime this century. All biting our nails …

Capricorn (22 December – 19 January)
You’re always trying to do the “right thing”, Cap. This is all very noble, but sometimes you tend to do yourself down in favour of others, and no-one can think clearly with clenched fists. Time to look at the Loved One in great detail and if there’s more than one thing you would like to change about him/her, accept that the relationship may not be what you thought it was. Think. Hard.

Aquarius (20 January – 18 February)
Yeah, Aqua! We know! You didn’t believe in Reincarnation the last time round either! Don’t you ever learn anything? Stop making the same mistakes! This time, look at the Lovelife before you jump in the deep end and end up regretting it. Happiness is not a destination, it’s the trip, so think about how far you want to run with this relationship and if you’ve got the breath for it. Watch this space.

Pisces (19 February – 20 March)
Help! I’m parked diagonally in a parallel universe! Get me out someone, what passes for a brain with me is not working! You have a way of making money that could wipe the floor with everyone, you just have to tune in to your thoughts and ideas. How about now? There are people who will be just too happy to help you, as long as you remember them when you’re King/Queen.

Aries (21 March – 19 April)
I have a mind like a steel…uh…thingamajig… Yes, Aries! Get up and go if you want to get anywhere, Anywhere At All! You have the strength of mind to make a success of just about anything you tackle, if you would just apply yourself. Ignore thoughts of what could go wrong and concentrate on what could go right instead. Don’t let down your loyal supporters, or yourself.

Taurus (20 April – 20 May)
You just took an IQ test and the results were negative. Taurus, get your horns sharpened and get ready for the charge! You have so many things to change, and now is the time! First thing, of course, is your home and surroundings if you want to have the right atmosphere to do what you do best: planning. Then the lovelife could do with some attention, actually a whole LOT, so get to it.

Gemini (21 May – 20 June)
I’m just here for moral support. Ignore the gun. STOPPIT, Gemini! Stop fighting everything, especially people at work. You really need to access the nice half of your starsign and learn to discuss and joke your way through stress instead of donning the boxing gloves. The more you practice, the better you’ll get at it. Even LOVE, that amazing thing, will improve. (WITH lots of practice!)

Cancer (21 June – 22 July)  
What more could you ask for, Cancer? Don’t answer that. You actually appear to be getting organised, with work, love, looks, whatever. The Universe is impressed, and they don’t impress easily. Did you have a brain transplant or something? Keep at it. Even money looks better. What’s happened? RUN! RUN! THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END!
