FRIDAY AUGUST 18, 2017

ARIES March 21-April 20 ***

When it comes to your daily routine, some tweaking may be necessary to get you on top of things. When it comes to a frazzled family member, try holding out the olive branch of peace.

TAURUS April 21-May 21 ***

With Mercury reversing through your self-expression zone, your creative output is one step forwards and two steps back. Don’t worry Taurus. Now’s the time to revise, research, review and reflect.

GEMINI May 22-June 21 **

With Mercury retrograde, lack of direction and discrimination could slow you down and confuse you. Twins are trusting folk, but don’t let a dubious acquaintance lead you up the primrose path to trouble.

CANCER June 22-July 23 **

Expect some tension between personal, professional and relationship responsibilities. Trying to impose your views on others won’t work at the moment. You’ll find cool compromise is the key.

LEO July 24-Aug 23 **

Money matters look confusing today Cats, as extra expenses surface or cracks appear in a financial partnership. If you can’t sort things out yourself, then find someone professional who can.

VIRGO Aug 24-Sep 23 **

A close relationship with a loved one becomes very complicated today Virgo, as neither of you are sure where you stand. In order to sort this one out, you’ll need to be practical and compassionate.

LIBRA Sep 24-Oct 23 ***

Mercury is retrograde until September 5. Which could diminish your usually deft diplomatic touch. It’s impossible to please everyone around you at the moment, so don’t even try!

SCORPIO Oct 24-Nov 22 **

You may feel emotionally vulnerable today, but don’t make things worse by being moody and playing power games. Learn to differentiate between what is essential and what is superfluous.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23-Dec 21 **

Mercury is currently reversing through your career zone until September 5. So you’ll find the less responsible and organised you are, the more confusing communicating with others will be.

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 20 ***

You may feel as if the worries of the world are heaped on you today. So don’t make things worse by being over-critical. Instead, try praising and encouraging those around you.

AQUARIUS Jan 21-Feb 19 ***

With retro Mercury and nebulous Neptune stirring up your finance zones, money matters look confusing. So make sure you stash extra cash away to tide you over when times are tight.

PISCES Feb 20-March 20 **

You want to retreat into your own private fantasy world, and are keen to escape problems and dream the day away. But a loved one may bring you down to earth with an unwelcome reality check.

YOUR DAY

There may be some conflict between being idealistic with being realistic.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

You are an adaptable person who gets things done. The next 12 months is the time to learn to stress much less and relax a lot more.
