Personal Destiny Forecast

Hi Nicole,
Life, in common with the planets, moves in cycles. Knowing when those cycles begin and end is invaluable when it comes to living your life to the full.

As the planets move around the zodiac they form angles or 'aspects' to the planets in your birth chart.

In astrology these 'aspects' we call 'transits'. Your personal transits we interpret in the pages that follow. They show the exact date each planet enters the orb of influence and finally exits.

Your Personal Destiny Forecast details the movements of the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars. Known as the personal inner planets.

They signify variations in your level of vitality and your feelings. Also, what you value most and the way you think and assert yourself.

Events occur in differing ways according to the planet positions in your birth chart. There will not always be an interpretation shown for every day.

You will notice the interpretation repeats. When viewed from the Earth, the planet involved may appear to move backwards. Then moves forwards over a specific time, re-creating the same planet event.

Like when two trains travelling in the same direction, pass one another at different speeds. The slower train when viewed from the fast one appears to go backwards.

This backwards motion of planets we call' retrograde' motion. When this occurs we use the RX retrograde symbol.

Use your Personal Destiny Forecast as a helpful guide. At all times it is for you to choose the best path to follow. The interpretations will help you grow and develop the most positive and rewarding parts of your character.

Your Transit Calendar

Developing or Exaggerating Trends

Jupiter trends from 1st February 2025 to 31st January 2026

April 5th to 17th 2025

Just be yourself

Transiting Jupiter Trines your natal Venus

Throughout our lives, there are times when we become aware of others suddenly becoming friendlier and nicer to us. Sometimes, we have no idea why this should suddenly happen as we didn't believe we were doing anything different in any way.

What you can expect soon is a noticeable feeling that you're sought after in more than one way. Your bank manager is likely to respond more positively toward you. However, it is in a romantic capacity that you're likely to discover the most pleasing and heart-warming development! Just be yourself now and let a bit of luck take care of the rest.

April 20th to 30th 2025

Planting the seeds

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Pluto

Do you want to see changes where affairs of the heart are concerned? Or, would one change be enough to boost your optimism or a belief that something that has perhaps grown predictable possesses can be changed?

It's time to assess ways in which you and someone else are coexisting and how something stronger can be attained.

This is a period of growth and growth always requires patience and time. Provided you and you-know-who are willing to give both and reach an agreement where one hasn't been forthcoming to date, then something magical can be achieved now.

April 23th to May 3rd 2025

Making your point

Transiting Jupiter Conjuncts your natal Ascendant

If we want respect, we usually have to make some effort to command it. People always respect those who have provided good or demonstrable reasons to receive it. You can convey yourself in new ways that will, in turn, influence how those closest to you see you. So, how do you want to be seen?

What do you want an existing or potential partner to know that they perhaps don't know already? If you've wanted an opportunity to speak your mind or make an important point in some way, then now is a perfect time to state your case.

May 1st to 12th 2025

Share and share alike

Transiting Jupiter Trines your natal Mars

Many people mistake negotiation for haggling. Successful negotiation always results in both sides feeling confident they have gained in at least one way. In the world of sport, it's acceptable for one person to win. Where relationships are concerned though, we aren't expected to feel such senses of triumph or victory.

We're meant to be more considerate and obliging, and that's what you're being encouraged to do now. Don't focus quite so intently on winning. Where you and a certain person are concerned, there is a way you can both gain something wonderful now by cooperating and sharing.

May 9th to 18th 2025

Too much protectiveness

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Uranus

Authors and scriptwriters often build into a central character's story something called a 'wound.' This usually happened before the beginning of a story or film and surrounds an experience that the main character hopes never to repeat that left them hurt or psychologically scarred.

You are likely to find yourself experiencing something similar. Is what happened previously an indication of what you can expect this time? You might have reasons for defending or protecting yourself in some way against what appears to be a repeat of a previously hurtful or upsetting experience, but things are different now.

You can apply what you learned previously and accept that circumstances now are very different. You really can afford to relax.

May 15th to 24th 2025

Time to take a stand

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Saturn

Long ago, prisoners wore heavy iron balls attached to heavy chains. While none of us today must undergo such an unpleasant experience, we do carry psychological equivalents.

When we feel a need to protect ourselves, we sometimes grow used to restriction that exists. We justify it and believe that, because it has existed for so long, it must have done so for a good reason originally that we can no longer recall.

It's important that you accept the freedom you do possess. Someone doesn't have the level of control over you that you believe they do.

All you need to do to see evidence of this for yourself is believe you aren't stuck in ways someone wants you to be. Summon courage, and you can experience the joy of freedom in an area you have long wanted to experience it within.

July 14th to 23th 2025

Let a few tongues wag

Transiting Jupiter Trines your natal MidHeaven

Many people believe we should be concerned when people aren't talking about us, rather than when they are.

Many other people also believe that there's no such thing as 'bad publicity.' Both points have benefits and disbenefits, truths and untruths.

In an area of your personal world now, you could, possibly for reasons known best to yourself, have set a few tongues wagging. Achievements and recognition are likely and so too is the very positive growth in your reputation.

You could understandably believe attention coming your way could be a bit too much, too soon. If that's the case, then accept you have the right to step back out of the spotlight.

If you are willing to make yourself available and forge a new connection or three, then it won't take long for you to identify numerous opportunities available to you and these are of the travel, career-related, home-related and romantic variety should you want them.

September 9th to 22nd 2025

Taking the reins

Transiting Jupiter Sextiles your natal Pluto, REPEATED when retrograde from 30th December 2025 to 14th January 2026. Exact 7th January 2026

We sometimes speak about a need to 'take the reins.' This figure of speech implies we take control of a situation and can have better control over an outcome. You are well placed now to transform an aspect of your emotional world by taking the initiative and gaining control over whatever has been beyond your control.

Doing so will not only take something between you and you-know-who to a new and previously unexplored level but bring a fresh level of optimism where you have wanted to see it for some time.

September 24th to October 12th 2025

Attack is not the wisest strategy

Transiting Jupiter Squares your natal Mars, REPEATED when retrograde from 10th to 28th December 2025. Exact 20th December

We're told all relationships must experience episodes of tension. Like pepper added to a stew, these give the relationships spice they require. But we all know what happens when we add too much spice to a recipe.

There is an intense – possibly even 'over the top' – exchange brewing. In the heat of some moments, some things get said that are both truthful but hurtful. At least try to ensure that whatever point you're trying to make to you-know-who is done with honesty and sensitivity.

October 4th to November 2nd 2025

Give and you shall receive

Transiting Jupiter Trines your natal Neptune, REPEATED when retrograde from 19th November 2025 to 17th December 2025. Exact 7th December

There is no such thing as a 'perfect' relationship. Human beings are far too fickle and volatile for perfection to exist in any relationship. That shouldn't stop any of us from striving to improve relationships, and this is best done when our hearts are filled with genuine desire to do so.

You have an excellent opportunity to apply sensitivity, creativity and large doses of imagination to who matters most to you now. Let the warmth being created from within you motivate you to give what you're feeling to others. What you give now, you stand to get returned to you tenfold.

October 6th to December 16th 2025

Retrograde

Learning can be fun

Transiting Jupiter Retrograde Sextiles your natal Uranus

It doesn't matter how long we've known a certain person; there's always something interesting waiting to be discovered about them.

The interesting thing about discovering something about someone else is, sometimes, they share our interesting discovery and discover something about themselves they didn't know!

You have an excellent opportunity to strengthen or even rekindle a relationship if you and you-know-who are willing to accept that there is so much to be learned about each other and yourselves.

October 16th to December 6th 2025

Retrograde

Be with company that suits you

Transiting Jupiter Retrograde Sextiles your natal Moon

When the need to be alone presents itself, we're often very aware of it. We tend to be equally aware of the need to surround ourselves with others at times, too.

You need to find a balance between the need to be alone and in the company of others – or possibly a certain person. Everyone needs space from time to time and if you believe now is such a time for you, then there are likely to be benefits to stepping back quietly.

However, if you're inclined to feel another night in front of a television is not an option, then you could be surprised at how invigorated you feel through mingling with others in a social setting.

October 21st to November 30th 2025

Retrograde

A new and exciting level

Transiting Jupiter Retrograde Trines your natal Saturn

Are certain possibilities becoming clear? Perhaps, what you saw as possibilities are starting to show signs of being something more.

You're wise to trust your instincts now where security is concerned, and you have an excellent opportunity to improve or strengthen a relationship in a new and exciting way.

Long-term commitments made now are likely to turn out well. All you need to do is decide if a long-term commitment is what you truly want.

If so, then seize the opportunity available now to either begin a new and potentially long-lasting relationship or take an existing one to a new and more secure level.

Steadying or Challenging Trends

Saturn trends from 1st February 2025 to 31st January 2026

February 17th to March 6th 2025

Setting realistic expectations

Transiting Saturn Opposes your natal Pluto

We're encouraged to 'think big.' We're encouraged to aim high. In fact, we sometimes opt to aim higher than we know we can aim because a 'worst case' scenario means we'll at least end up where we wanted to be.

At other times, we need to be realistic and even cautious. Now, within an area of your personal world, is such a time for you.

Expect significant challenges and obstacles to crop up. Move slowly, go for the long haul and make the best of it. Try to operate efficiently and economically. This is a time to be practical and set realistic expectations. It is not a time for extravagance or to have a head in the clouds.

Provided your expectations are reasonable and realistic, you can make real and tangible progress. Just be sensible and don't get too carried away.

February 22nd to March 11th 2025

Acceptance to adapt

Transiting Saturn Squares your natal Ascendant

Relationships evolve. They have to continually keep moving forward. This process almost always involves a learning curve, and such learning curves are sometimes difficult.

Your commitments to others may be challenged now. You may need to examine your true feelings toward others (which may be very difficult to do) and make some tough decisions. Confrontations with authority figures are also possible, but it's important to accept what you are learning and how what you're learning can be applied to existing or new relationships.

Provided you're willing to accept that you don't know all there is to know about a certain person or that the future of a relationship will require acceptance to adapt on both sides, then all will be fine.

March 18th to April 4th 2025

Exercise your imagination

Transiting Saturn Trines your natal Neptune

So many people exercise their bodies. We all feed our stomachs. Yet, how often do we exercise or feed our minds – or our imaginations?

You have a fantastic opportunity now to stretch your imagination. There is wonderful creative ground waiting to be covered, and you have something equally wonderful to look forward to – a 'Eureka Moment.'

Prepare for something connected with your imagination to click snugly into place. Prepare as well for an obstacle in your personal world you've struggled to shift to move with considerably less effort than you thought it would require.

Be flexible where the outcome of a particular saga is concerned, too. You could have some set-in-stone perceptions about it. By applying your imagination and summoning creativity in some way, you can create something heart-warming and delightful.

March 20th to April 6th 2025

Decisions resulting from the need for change

Transiting Saturn Opposes your natal Uranus, REPEATED when retrograde from 19th November 2025 to 5th December 2025. Exact 27th November

Some people are skilled in the art of 'list making'. Sometimes, difficult decisions can be made by simply drawing a line down the middle of a piece of paper and listing the pros and cons or benefits or disbenefits in each column. Interestingly, the list is usually longest on the side we want it to be longest on.

You're being encouraged to redefine your intentions in life, what is working, what isn't and what could be working so much better if circumstances were different. This is a time for reassessment and to accept the need for change where it's needed. It's the latter that we tend to struggle with.

Don't resent how, through being practical and seeing a situation in your personal world as it truly is, change must feature in your plans. Separations or departures could form part of these and, if so, have faith in the fact that anything or anyone removed from your world now will have been removed to make space for something or someone better or more appropriate.

March 27th to April 14th 2025

Speaking from the heart

Transiting Saturn Sextiles your natal Moon, REPEATED when retrograde from 24th October 2025 to 30th December 2025. Exact 27th November

Some people don't believe it to be necessary to make a point more than once. They believe that, through making the point once, they've been released from all responsibility surrounding having to make it again in future.

This becomes frustrating when it occurs in relationships. When the words 'I told you I loved last week, why do you need me to tell you again now?' get said, then a recipe for disaster can often be underway.

If we all sang from the same proverbial hymn sheet where relationships are concerned, then life would be infinitely easier in so many ways. But it is the fact that we don't see eye to eye or agree on everything that can, in some ways, make relationships more interesting and less dull.

You have a need now for steady, deep relationships and appear focused on long-term commitments in at least one way. If that is truly what you want, then a need might exist to make this clear to certain people or one in particular.

Don't be fobbed off with excuses. You might fear you're trying to progress or accelerate a process that won't be progressed in ways you're inclined to believe. But you owe it to yourself and someone else to make clear why you want the depth of relationships you do – and could be surprised at how receptive a particular person could be to your request, too!

March 31st to April 18th 2025

Creating solid foundations

Transiting Saturn Conjuncts your natal Saturn, REPEATED when direct from 17th October 2025 to 6th January 2026. Exact 17th December

If anything is to progress positively, then time needs to be allowed for it to do so. In other words, all positive change is gradual.

You could be aware of how much time and patience might be required to improve an area of your personal world now but don't overlook the strength of foundations you're putting in place. By being realistic and allowing for reasonable timescales for developments to progress and unfold, there is permanence attached to your plan.

Have faith in the fact that your patience and diligence will be rewarded. By putting one foot in front of the other and being practical regarding pursuing what or whom you're pursuing, the result will be solid and could last a lifetime.

May 5th to 29th 2025

Clicking snugly into place

Transiting Saturn Trines your natal Jupiter, REPEATED when retrograde from 26th August 2025 to 22nd September 2025. Exact 9th September

When assembling a jigsaw puzzle, we know how satisfying it can be when pieces click snugly into place.

In an area of your personal world now, something is about to 'click' snugly into place. You're supported in a glorious way where long-term decision making is concerned. You're also in a rare and enviable position to apply extremely sound judgment where it's needed.

Have faith in the fact that what you're putting into place now is being done on the soundest and most solid of footings. Somehow, previous experience is playing a part in what you're putting in place, but where an arrangement might have been unstable previously, you are well placed to ensure it is stable this time around.

May 15th to June 15th 2025

Playing the waiting game

Transiting Saturn Sextiles your natal Sun, REPEATED when retrograde from 8th August 2025 to 10th September 2025. Exact 27th August

In an area of your personal world, it's fair to say you have real responsibilities. It's also fair to say you have some real opportunities.

When will you know when or when not to seize some of these? Chances are, you're wondering how you have found yourself in a particularly vulnerable position. Part of you wishes it could take control, be in charge and force a result or two to manifest.

In your heart, you know you have more waiting to do. For now, be patient. Accept what is happening and what has yet to unfold. Soon, you will need to make an important decision but the more you let processes unfold in their own way and time, the sooner you'll discover how they're unfolding in ways that truly suit you. What – or who – you need is coming as quickly as it or they're can.

June 13th to August 10th 2025

Bartering with belief

Transiting Saturn Sextiles your natal Mercury

You have an excellent opportunity to make a deal or reach an agreement. Before this can happen, you need to be prepared to give and potentially receive nothing in return, initially anyway. A compromise could be required. So too, could a sacrifice.

That doesn't mean the onus is on you to be the scapegoat or draw the proverbial short straw. There's no reason why you should be the one to 'take in on the chin' for someone else to benefit. You can, however, play an integral role in an agreement being reached that DOES suit you and others, or possibly a particular person.

In an area of your personal world, a need to barter exists. Look at what is being proposed or enforced and then look at how it can be modified to suit you better. If you hold out for the best possible deal through having faith in the fact you deserve or have earned it, then you will receive it.

If you trust your judgment now, then pleasing or even heart-warming success can be achieved.

Emergent or Disorderly Trends

November 16th 2024 onwards to April 9th 2025

Change of the wonderful variety

Transiting Uranus Trines your natal Uranus

Sometimes, we resent and fear change. Other times, we embrace it with open arms. What is it that causes us to feel differently about the different types of change?

Much has to do with how much we're willing to push aside fear. The rest has to do with how essential we know the change entering our world actually is.

Both apply to an area of your personal world now. You're undoubtedly about to benefit from freedom in some way, brought about through your willingness to invite and embrace change – and change where you've long wanted to see it!

Continue to be willing to encourage the change unfolding now. The more you can apply imagination and creativity, the more delighted you'll be with what transpires.

November 21st 2024 onwards to April 6th 2025

Listen to both your head and your heart

Transiting Uranus Opposes your natal Neptune

We tend to like what we know and know what we like. Whatever we like has, in some way in the past, proved itself worthy of being liked by us.

We reserve the right to be Doubting Thomas's until such time we're reassured something – or someone –is worthy of our attention or devotion.

In an area of your personal world now, need exists to be cautious. As much as something or someone appears suitable or trustworthy, you'd be well advised to let a bit more time pass before making a judgment.

That's not to say you're deceived in any way. Let more facts come to light. Allow yourself to base a decision surrounding committing yourself in some way on what both your head and heart are telling you. This is a time to balance being starry-eyed with being realistic.

March 15th to April 26th 2025

Tread carefully

Transiting Uranus Conjuncts your natal Moon

We hear people say that 'change is as good as a rest.' That depends though on what we're changing and if we feel a need exists to rest in some way.

With change comes upheaval. With upheaval comes a period of insecurity. That's why we need to assess the implications of change we're introducing and why we're instigating it.

With that in mind, look closely at what it is you want to change and why. Are you inclined to bring change for the sake of it – maybe because a situation has grown tired or tedious and change might be welcomed? Or is there a deeper and more essential need to do this?

You can bring change to your personal world now. If a relationship or routine has become predictable or stale, then you're well-placed to bring change to either or both. Be aware though of how far reaching the change you're instigating could be. Only instigate it if you're willing to accept the levels of upheaval doing so will bring but, if you are willing, then you will be embarking upon a new and exciting chapter once proverbial dust settles.

March 25th to May 3rd 2025

Changing circumstances brings new understanding

Transiting Uranus Sextiles your natal Saturn

You appear to be in delicately balanced yet powerfully charged scenario.

In an area of your personal world, you would like to have more control over the outcome of a particular process yet it appears the amount of influence you can have is limited. Someone else has a say in what's happening, and it is the way in which you and this individual disagree about what is 'right' and what is 'wrong' that is likely the biggest bone of contention now.

Don't be quite so quick to 'label' or judge. You and someone else need to redefine certain opinions and attitudes in light of new information and a need to reach a new understanding. This is likely to cause a period of confusion but provided you're both willing to accept and even embrace a change in circumstances, things will work out perfectly.

June 4th to July 15th 2025

Collaboration is key

Transiting Uranus Sextiles your natal Jupiter, REPEATED when retrograde from 29th October 2025 to 18th December 2025. Exact 23rd November

We understand how 'two heads are often better than one.' We accept how much more can sometimes be achieved through collaborative effort than tackling something singlehandedly.
In an area of your personal world, a reason to collaborate or work together with another person can bring delight followed by success.

You needn't stick to some great, thought-through plan. The more you can be willing to be spontaneous and react alongside at least one other person who shares a particular objective or goal, the greater your chances of success.

Allow yourself to be involved in any activity that requires 'putting heads together' and a delightful result – and encounter – is extremely likely.

June 21st to August 17th 2025

Embrace the unusual

Transiting Uranus Trines your natal Sun, REPEATED when retrograde from 24th September 2025 to 24th November 2025. Exact 30th October

Some people are experts at improvising. Many actors prefer to throw away or disregard scripts and prefer a more natural, responsive way of conveying their character. If you've not had much chance – or choice – to improvise in the past, then a superb opportunity to do so is presenting itself now.

Somewhere in your personal world, there exists a need for you to at least disregard a 'rulebook.' You will benefit so much more by refusing to be pinned down any more than you must be. Allow chaos to continue. Embrace volatility. Be grateful for the unexpected and embrace the unusual.

You can be innovative now and can see how much more there is to life than order and normality. Something in your personal world has become tedious and predictable. If you're willing to refuse to adhere to a particular 'norm,' then you will make several valuable and delightful discoveries.

August 14th to September 27th 2025

Be certain about change you're considering

Transiting Uranus Trines your natal Mercury

Through focusing on so much going on in our worlds on a day-to-day basis, we sometimes forget how life is a learning curve requiring us to seize any opportunity to gain insight and understanding wherever possible. Sometimes though, we believe we have enough of both where we think we need it and don't summon the courage to bring change to areas of our lives where we know it is needed.

It is the opportunity to bring about real change now that you need to seize. In some ways, it's as if a Genie has emerged from his lamp and is waiting with arms folded for instruction from you. That's why you need to be certain about what it is in your personal world you want to change!

Soon, you will make a vital discovery where you most need insight and understanding. This revelation might not transform your personal world overnight, but it will do so much to provide you with the perspective you need. From there, you can – and will – bring change you need.

Making You Aware or Wearying Trends

Neptune trends from 1st February 2025 to 31st January 2026

February 12th to April 8th 2025

Need to wear shades

Transiting Neptune Trines your natal Jupiter, REPEATED when direct from 7th October 2025 to 7th February 2026. Exact 10th December

To feel positive and optimistic, we don't need much in the way of clues or insight. Sometimes, just the tiniest example of a glimmer of hope can provide enough to make us feel our time, effort and patience have all been invested well. In your relationship world now, you have much more than a glimmer of hope available to you.
The light you're seeing is on par with a film studio floodlight or a supercharged lighthouse, and you've every reason now to have faith in the fact that a dream you've nurtured quietly for some time is gradually becoming a reality. The 'feel good factor' offered to you now is likely to escalate for a while yet so continue to pursue that which is close to your heart.

March 11th to May 7th 2025

Seeing the real picture

Transiting Neptune Sextiles your natal Sun, REPEATED when retrograde from 2nd September 2025 to 7th March 2026. Exact 9th October

At school, we were encouraged to use our imaginations. At the same time, we were always encouraged to keep both feet on the ground and be sensible. Imaginations need room to develop and mature, and yours could be fired up in some way now that needs to be allowed to do both. There is the tiny matter though of seeing something in your relationship world through rose-tinted glasses.

Whilst it's lovely to put a certain person on a pedestal, they're human after all and it's important now to see the reality of someone's behaviors and attitudes – all of which can still make them appealing in every way, but if you're to truly know a certain person, then be willing to accept all that they are, not just what you want to see them as.

May 5th to September 4th 2025

Retrograde

Letting it flow

Transiting Neptune Retrograde Sextiles your natal Mercury

Bracing ourselves for confrontation puts us on edge and makes us less inclined to hear what someone is trying to tell us. Fortunately, help and support is available to you in this respect. You're being encouraged to interact more with certain people and possibly one person in particular.
Through an important and necessary exchange that will require you to let go of certain approaches or methods, you will encourage a perfect climate to receive answers rather than force them. This, you will find, will make you feel more relaxed about where you stand within an arrangement or one individual. You deserve a chance to relax, and that's precisely what's coming.

Renewing or Deteriorating Trends

Pluto trends from 1st February 2025 to 31st January 2026

January 5th to March 15th 2025

The power of words

Transiting Pluto Conjuncts your natal Mercury, REPEATED when direct from 24th June 2025 to 17th January 2026. Exact 15th December

How you convey yourself now is important. It's a time to look closely at what you're saying, how you're saying it and how reassured you are certain people are not only listening to what you're saying but absorbing and interpreting it correctly.

You have an opportunity to make effective use of words in whatever way you deem fit to bring about a much-needed change. A tired or predictable arrangement or relationship can be transformed depending on how able you are to instigate a process verbally or in writing.

Say what you know needs to be said and watch what unfolds.

Forecast from 1st February

Saturday 1st February

Dare to dream

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Jupiter from 1st to 4th February 2025. Exact 3rd February

Do you dare to dream? Do you risk pursuing any of the wild ideas likely occupying your thoughts now? The answer to both questions is undoubtedly 'yes.' Dream as much as you dare to. Entertain as many of the wild ideas as you can because, in your relationship world now, one or two dreams or ideas will lead you toward a very clever move.

You're entering a time that promises to be more rewarding than you probably suspect, and once you see evidence of rewards, you're likely to want more. Is there a downside to this? The only point to consider surrounds possible belief on your part that any inch should be seized and made into a mile.

At least one tempting possibility is presenting itself, and through your confidence being boosted, you might be oblivious to how charismatic you appear in the eyes of certain others. Go with the flow now and avoid the tendency to be forceful or overly determined. Let what is unfolding naturally do so in its own way while continuing to dream and let ideas create themselves.

Sunday 2nd February

It's all moving forward

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Sun from 2nd to 5th February 2025. Exact 4th February

Depending on where we are on planet Earth, we're constantly spinning at between 700 and 900 miles per hour. If we stand still, we feel nothing. We're oblivious to how the spinning rock which we inhabit is hurtling through space at approximately 67,000 miles per hour.

So, can it not be said that even when we think nothing is happening in our world or situations show no sign of progress, we're part of a complex process that indicates otherwise? In your personal world now, you probably suspect you're standing still. You're not. You are making real and tangible progress.

You probably suspect a certain situation is far from ideal and makes little sense. Actually, it is very ideal and makes a lot of sense. This is a time to look closely at what appears imperfect and discover that there is a real reason to believe you're much closer to the desired scenario than you probably believe.

Tuesday 4th February

Inspiration is all that you require

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Venus from 4th to 6th February 2025. Exact 5th February

What do most people believe would make them happy or happier? More money? A more satisfying love life?

The process you're blessed with experiencing now intends to bring considerably more comfort to your world and, where your relationship with a particular individual is concerned, inspiration is on offer.

From that will come all else you require. This also includes some good, old-fashioned luck, too. If you're willing to take a small and seemingly insignificant advantage and turn into something bigger by using ingenuity and trusting your instincts, then something heart-warmingly wonderful can occur. Have faith in your ability to do 'what's right' - and this includes being in the right place at the right time! Expect soon, to turn a precarious situation into a very pleasing one.

Wednesday 5th February

A solution in the form of a brainwave

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Mercury from 5th to 8th February 2025. Exact 7th February

Life ticks along in ways that we get used to and then suddenly, we find ourselves dealing with a development that truly grabs our attention. We wonder where on Earth such a development could have come from, what caused it or how instrumental we were in making it happen.

Something similar happens with brainwaves. We become very used to a situation that we know is crying out for a new and exciting idea. In your personal world now, that's precisely what you can expect. Powerful forces are being unleashed in your life. You're not quite sure how you ought to be acknowledging or adapting to them.

Let the solution that is determined to make its way to you come to you and then embrace it. It is precisely what you need now.

Thursday 6th February

A fair deal needs doing

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Venus from 6th to 7th February 2025. Exact 7th February

Negotiation should always be a two-way process. If done properly, negotiation should result in both sides believing they have gained and reached a mutually satisfactory result.

Some people believe that negotiation must involve one side 'getting one over' the other or hoodwinking them in some way.

Where you and someone else are concerned, there is something to be negotiated, and an agreement needs to be reached. If what is discussed is discussed fairly, then both you and someone else could benefit – or profit – enormously from the process.

Friday 7th February

Say it and say it confidently

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Ascendant from 7th to 9th February 2025. Exact 9th February

We tend to be 'tuned in' to people who have much to say but who don't appear to be able to back up what they say. Such people tend to simply regurgitate what they've been told and have never chosen to question the validity or relevance to what they tell others.

However, some people appear to possess 'gift of the gab', make sense when they speak and capture others' imaginations with engaging words. You can bring an improvement to your emotional world or one special relationship by speaking confidently and knowledgeably now. You have something interesting and relevant to say. Don't feel otherwise.

Also on Friday

Power of attraction

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Ascendant from 7th to 10th February 2025. Exact 9th February

Some people know how to command respect from others. They manage to do this effortlessly and in ways that encourage others to cooperate or be drawn toward them willingly.

To make progress in an area of your personal world, you don't need to apply any harsh or aggressive tactics. Simply be yourself. Treat those you want to be closer to you in ways you would want to be treated, and you could be surprised at how easily it is to win friends or influence certain people.

It's fair to say you possess a 'magnetic personality' now. Magnets can be fickle things, though. They know what they like to be drawn toward and what they prefer to repel. You're being assisted to draw toward you what and whom you need. Trust that and allow the process to work something wonderful on your behalf.

Saturday 8th February

Leave aggression on the doorstep

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Mars from 8th to 10th February 2025. Exact 10th February

How we choose to convey ourselves or make a point is often dictated by our mood or attitude at the time. If we're feeling resentful, aggrieved or angry, then we sometimes use a proverbial sledgehammer to crack a proverbial walnut when a much simpler and less confrontational way would have been best.

It's important you bear that in mind now. Your impatience to make a certain point might be underpinned with more aggression than you intend. Be diplomatic and ensure sensitivity plays a big part in whatever it is you feel the need to say to a certain person now.

Sunday 9th February

Stick with the plan and keep with the program

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Neptune from 9th to 11th February 2025. Exact 10th February

If something's too good to be true, then we usually have at least one very good reason to doubt it. When something becomes available to us instantly or with little or no effort on our part, delight can become replaced with suspicion. Be wary now of such a situation presenting itself to you now and this probably surrounds a certain person in your world being economical with the truth.

Something in your world doesn't need 'fixing' in the way you're led to believe, and neither does it need the level of complication that will undoubtedly arise though believing wholeheartedly what you're told. Focus on what you know works, makes you happy and is solid. Don't deviate from a plan just because a seemingly more attractive option is making itself available.

Also on Sunday

Harnessing power available to you

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mars from 9th to 11th February 2025. Exact 10th February

People sometimes speak about atmosphere's being or feeling 'electric.' In your personal world now, it's likely you could experience a few flying sparks.

Trust that the energy available to you now is extremely positive and is intended to help. You have, at your disposal, the ability to repair much of what needs repairing as far as relationships, situations, and arrangements with others are concerned. You are blessed with an ability to improve much in your own world while, at the same time, the world of others - or a certain person to whom you are close or want to be closer to.

The more constructively you use the power and influence available to you now, the more of both you will discover you have available to you.

Monday 10th February

Posing questions in measured doses

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Moon from 10th to 11th February 2025. Exact 11th February

If you're aware of a distinct feeling of confusion, then welcome it. Uncertainty you feel is likely to encourage you to question one or two areas or aspects of your emotional world that could do with being questioned. Be careful though, of how much time and effort you give toward questioning whatever – or whoever – it is.

You could be at risk of making a bigger issue out of something than is justified. To you, an issue is big. To someone else, it's likely to be less important, so by all means, ask questions to get to the bottom of a certain matter, but be aware of when might be a good time to stop.

Also on Monday

Ignore drama and exaggeration

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Neptune from 10th to 13th February 2025. Exact 12th February

To prove a point, we sometimes feel the need to go to great lengths. We believe it necessary to inject some drama or exaggeration to illustrate how important a particular issue or belief is to us.

Drama and exaggeration do little to convince others of our belief levels. Often, they'd prefer we were less dramatic or prone to exaggeration!

That's why, in your personal world now, you need to refrain from going 'over the top' regarding making a particular point. If you can separate fact from the fantasy that is being nurtured now, then you can make your point with clarity and not be at risk of being seen as unrealistic or having no true grasp of what you ought to be more certain of.

The same applies to a fearful fantasy, should you be nurturing of those instead. Much is being distorted now and the more you can be realistic and pragmatic, the less stress you'll encourage to come your way.

Tuesday 11th February

Stepping back is best

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Moon from 11th to 14th February 2025. Exact 13th February

We are all, in one way or another, influenced strongly by our companions, colleagues and family members. However, we tend not to consider how influenced we are by what we believe they want from us as opposed to what they really want from us.

The boundaries of your relationship with one person - or possibly a group of people - are being redefined now. This could be causing you to fear that you're alienating yourself unnecessarily in some way yet, at the same time, it could be apparent that you involve yourself in dramas or other peoples' situations in ways you shouldn't be!

The redefining of boundaries is going to involve you to detach yourself in some way from certain others but don't succumb to a belief that the only way to remain connected as things stand presently is to involve yourself with what's happening in their worlds in ways that could justifiably be seen as inappropriate.

A shift is occurring where your relationships with key people are concerned. Step back, let what's changing unfold in its own way and time, and this will benefit you and those you're closest to.

Monday 17th February

No need for trumpets

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal MidHeaven from 17th to 19th February 2025. Exact 18th February

In medieval times, royal announcements were made with a flourish of trumpets. This not only served to ensure the attention of all royal subjects was received but gave the announcement a certain level of prestige.

The indications are of many eyes being upon you in some way now and willingness on the part of others to hear what you have to say or announce. Trust that you don't need to make a grand entrance or gesture to gain attention now. Say what you want and need to say in the knowledge that your audience is a very receptive one.

Monday 24th February

Tackle it confidently

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Pluto from 24th to 25th February 2025. Exact 25th February

The word 'worry' is, interestingly, derived from an old Anglo-Saxon word, 'wyrgan' which means 'to strangulate.' We all know how worrying about something is counterproductive yet somehow manage to continue doing it.

In your relationship world, you could be identifying a reason to worry or feel a sense of panic. It's possible a fear is being nurtured. Even if you feel such feelings are justified and very real, circumstances are encouraging you now to accept that an issue needs to be faced and dealt with confidently.

It requires action, not fed with fear. You can tackle what needs tackling and, provided you're willing to bring the issue out into the light where it can be seen clearly and put in place a strategy to resolve it, then success is assured.

Also on Monday

Keep it simple

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Ascendant from 24th to 26th February 2025. Exact 25th February

It's amazing how leaving one word out of a sentence can change it dramatically. When we're trying to make a point or convey ideas to others, then doing so successfully relies entirely upon them grasping and fully understanding the point we're making.

We know, from experience, that people don't always understand what we try to tell them despite our efforts to do all we can to ensure they do. If what you're trying to convey to a certain person appears to be hard work, then rethink how you're conveying it. Remove all assumption from the equation.

Start again if you feel you must do so. Take your time, count to ten, let your words emerge confidently and see what changes in a close connection by doing so.

Tuesday 25th February

Making yourself known

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal MidHeaven from 25th to 27th February 2025. Exact 26th February

Most artists, once they've experienced success with their craft, feel an urge to make available what they do to more and more people. If a certain number of people enjoyed what they've created, then it stands to reason that many others would too, if they were aware of what was being offered!

Might the same notion apply to an area of your personal world now? You could be feeling inclined to expand your social networks, make clear to yourself or one or two others how ambitious you are feeling or break free from a restrictive situation within which you feel misunderstood or taken for granted.

Success can be had through effort on your part to make yourself known or what you can offer outside of a sphere you're comfortable with. If you're willing to make an effort, then you'll be delighted to discover how supportive and willing to explore further what you're offering others will be.

Wednesday 26th February

Seeing what needs to be seen

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Neptune from 26th to 27th February 2025. Exact 27th February

Every day and within every situation we encounter, there is beauty and magic to be seen. It can take strength and courage to see what is less beautiful or magical sometimes and you have recently had to summon strength and courage to accept something in your world.

Your outlook, particularly where your world of relationships is concerned, is one of clarity, understanding, and positivity.

You are in a much better position now to make a choice than you were recently and, through being better informed now than you were, can expect to have your spirits lifted enormously. That doesn't mean every answer you seek to a confusing or difficult situation will become available, but you will gain enough information shortly to be able to proceed confidently and feel more reassured.

Also on Wednesday

Focus on the bright side

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Uranus from 26th to 27th February 2025. Exact 27th February

We often hear people speak of something called 'Murphy's Law.' This old saying applies to whatever can go wrong, going wrong. Such situations usually take us by surprise, and such a surprise is not usually one we welcome.

You can, if you wish, become despondent or resentful about a certain development but, before you do, look at how it is unlikely to have been prevented. You know something wasn't 'right' or needed improving so look closely at how a setback is spurring you on in some way.

You have no reason to feel depressed, defeated or desperate. It is time to let go of an old expectation and focus on numerous benefits attached to starting afresh in some way.

You're in the throes of reassessing and re-evaluating what - and whom - matters most to you and will soon see how gloriously bright your future is.

Also on Wednesday

A way with words

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Moon from 26th to 28th February 2025. Exact 27th February

When can you last recall words flowing freely to the point where you surprised yourself with how easily you said them? When did you last Speak from your heart and reveal effortlessly what you felt? You should find making your point or conveying your feelings, at least with words, considerably easier now.

If there's something you've wanted to say to a special person in your world, then if you're willing to make an effort to do so now, you could find your words and emotions flow delightfully. It will probably be the genuine sensitivity that underpins them that touches someone's heart.

Also on Wednesday

Step back in time

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Saturn from 26th to 28th February 2025. Exact 28th February

Scriptwriters often create characters who have something called a 'wound.' This is not usually a physical injury; it is something that happened to the character, often before the story began, that hurt them.

Through this, they learned much about life, how it works and their place within it. As the story progresses, the character must return a situation they have dreaded ever experiencing again, and this involves confronting their fear about what hurt them previously. Somewhere in your world, you have to do the same now.

There is something you must learn through revisiting something from your past. See this as an essential step forward toward a fine future, not a backward step. What you discover now through whatever happened previously will prove invaluable from this point onward.

Forecast for March 2025

Saturday 1st March

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Jupiter from 1st to 3rd March 2025. Exact 2nd March

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Also on Saturday

Exploring your options

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Sun from 1st to 3rd March 2025. Exact 3rd March

People often speak about being 'stuck in ruts.' It's interesting how many people are willing to accept that's how things must be. They convince themselves that a rut they find themselves in will require more effort than they're prepared to give to remove themselves from it, or they fear change that will come as a result of doing so.

You are being presented with an opportunity to instigate a change that will get you out of a rut that you may feel you're stuck in.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Monday 3rd March

The truth needs respect

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mercury from 3rd to 5th March 2025. Exact 4th March

We're sometimes accused of 'kidding ourselves.' We often have good reason to resent such a comment. After all, why would someone else be so quick to draw a conclusion about how they feel we've drawn an incorrect or inaccurate conclusion? Where your relationship world is concerned, you have a very good reason to believe you know the truth about something someone else is inclined to think you've grasped the wrong end of the proverbial stick about.

Stick with what you know to be right and real. The truth deserves respect now, and you're in a perfect position to support it, based on what your intuition is telling you.

Saturday 8th March

Bring it out into the open

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Pluto from 8th to 11th March 2025. Exact 10th March

Artists know when to walk away from their masterpiece. As tempting as it might be to add another dab of paint here or there, they reach a point where they know enough is enough and further adding will risk ruining what they've worked hard to create.

In your personal world now, there is more going on than meets the eye. A need exists for you to get right to the root of a particular issue and, to do this, you're going to have to know when the time is right to cease 'adding' to it. You're going to have to dig deep within your inner wisdom to know when to step back and decide that you don't want to add any more to something that needs nothing more added to it.

This will require you to face up to a few difficult facts. Something needs to be brought out into the open and exposed – without secrecy or hidden agendas that might have been a part of it until now.

Once you're able to look at the issue objectively and fairly, you'll soon see how much easier it is to make progress and bring considerably closer a cherished goal you've long wanted to be within reach.

Sunday 9th March

No second chances to make first impressions

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Ascendant from 9th to 11th March 2025. Exact 10th March

Do opposites attract? There is much evidence that they do. However, we know how magnets repel what doesn't suit them. In your personal world now, you need to consider how, through ways in which you're projecting yourself to others - or a particular person - you could be pushing away someone you ought to be closer with.

Consider how you're expressing yourself and to what extent aggression could be playing a part in what you do or say. Consider also how you're projecting yourself regarding your appearance. Be honest with yourself. Does appearance mean less to you than it once did, and might you be seen in a self-defeating way?

How you convey or project yourself now is likely to be opposite to how you'd ideally like to be seen. Don't make it unnecessarily difficult for others to get to know you. Give thought to how you can present yourself more enticingly.

Wednesday 12th March

Reasons to be hopeful

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Neptune from 12th to 14th March 2025. Exact 13th March

If we're presented with paper money in any currency, provided we're reassured it's genuine then we're willing to accept it's worth what we understand it to be worth. We don't need to see the same value in coins to reassure us. We take at face value what we see on paper.

We sometimes underestimate how important it is to have faith in what we can see, but we know how investing faith in something we can't see isn't always as easy. That's where intuition comes in.

You need to use and trust your intuition now. Above all, be willing to be optimistic and seek the hidden, practical advantage in any development that arises, not matter how daunting it might appear.

Even if you feel you might struggle to do any of the above, then relax. You're about to be given a very good reason to feel more hopeful where you have felt pessimistic of late. From there, the rest will be up to you as long as you're willing to trust what your deepest instincts tell you.

Also on Wednesday

The danger of making assumptions

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Uranus from 12th to 15th March 2025. Exact 14th March

There's an old saying that goes 'never assume because doing so will make an ass out of you and me.' It's a somewhat clever play on the letters within the word, but we all know what problems can arise from making assumptions sometimes.

It's important you guard against certain expectations in some way now. You could be making at least one very large assumption and would be well advised not to treat anything as gospel without checking a few facts first.

A particular climate is volatile enough without being made more complicated through such errors of judgment. Don't hesitate to be a Doubting Thomas wherever possible and avoid, wherever possible, any temptation to jump to particular conclusions.

Thursday 13th March

Taking the initiative

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Moon from 13th to 16th March 2025. Exact 15th March

We learn from a young age that, if we don't 'ask,' we don't 'get.'

It becomes clear that some level of proactivity and possibly even imagination are needed if we're to make something happen. It also becomes clear that, sometimes, we need to remove ourselves from comfort zones, even if doing so makes us feel uncomfortable or have to face one or two difficult facts doing so.

As much as you would prefer not to rock a proverbial boat and simply accept rather than question a situation now, if you do not already see evidence of a need to take the initiative and bring change where it is needed, then you will do, soon enough.

Turning the other cheek, avoiding confrontation wherever possible or doing anything for a quiet and easy life are admirable traits, but they're not always practical. It's time to summon courage and take a brave step forward where a certain situation or individual is concerned. Where a relaxed attitude has been helpful so far, the time has come to put your foot down and send a clear message that you can choose to take the initiative when you know you must.

Also on Thursday

No cutting corners

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Saturn from 13th to 16th March 2025. Exact 15th March

We crave predictability and then, at times, abhor it. We accept the need for order and structure in our world yet so many of us resist or oppose it.

Many in the scientific world will confirm that 'all things happen for a reason.' Any action always causes a reaction, and we can all identify times in our lives when we undertook tasks 'properly' or 'by the book.' That's because we understood that, to do something properly, we need to take it one step at a time and ensure one step has been done properly before embarking on the next step.

That sums up a situation in your personal world now. There's no point in thinking you can run before you can walk. Neither is there a need to go to extremes to make a point. You don't need to give more effort to a cause, situation or arrangement than you know is absolutely necessary. What matters is you understand the need to do something properly, slowly and in the way it is supposed to be done.

Resist any temptation to cut corners, give what effort is needed and all will be fine.

Monday 17th March

An investigative adventure

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Jupiter from 17th to 20th March 2025. Exact 19th March

Do you own a deerstalker hat, curved Calabash pipe, and a magnifying glass? Anyone donning or holding these items would be easily identifiable as Sherlock Holmes and, in an area of your personal world now, need exists for you to become a sleuth of some kind.

There's a need to acquire information, canvass opinion and research every aspect of a particular story. You probably have your suspicions about the outcome of your efforts but are also aware of dangers surrounding being too impulsive - or assumptive - now.

What you need to confirm requires effort on your part to uncover what needs to be uncovered or identify what is waiting to be identified. Then, once you've finished your fact-gathering exercise, you can expect to find yourself surprised and then delighted in some way with what you discover.

Saturday 15th March

Do what you fear most, and your fear will disappear

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Pluto from 15th to 24th March 2025. Exact 20th March

Despite how things may appear, you are not as alone as you perhaps believe yourself to be. You have assistance available to you, even if you cannot see it.

This is unlikely to be in the form of a person but it more likely to manifest from within you and without intending to wax lyrical about an issue that is probably causing you to be fearful, you can make something special happen now where your relationship with a certain person is concerned if you're willing to abandon a fear.

Does that sound more difficult than it's likely to be? Provided you can summon determination to overcome it while remaining calm and sensitive; you can remove a barrier and conquer a long-standing fear at the same time. This can only help you to embark upon or strengthen a relationship.

Tuesday 18th March

Courage will bring a positive outcome

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Sun from 18th to 21st March 2025. Exact 20th March

When faced with a task or decision that doesn't exactly fill us with inspiration or confidence, we sometimes create reasons, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid or postpone it.

That's a natural reaction and doesn't mean we're weak. Life, after all, is to be enjoyed and we reserve the right to prolong for as much as we can enjoyment we're experiencing.

In an area of your personal world now, it is probably becoming clear that a difficult conversation needs to be had or an awkward fact needs to be faced. The fact that you might be postponing doing anything about either or both could stem from your belief that you've accurately pre-judged an outcome, when, in fact, you might not have.

With a tense relationship, situation or arrangement, there's more fluidity and flexibility than you think. That's why you can and ought to raise difficult topics without fear of feeling afraid, ashamed or guilty.

By taking a brave step forward, facing what needs to be faced and taking action reinforced by the belief that a positive outcome is available, you can expect to feel more confident and hopeful, very soon.

Thursday 20th March

Free yourself from a repetitive situation

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mercury from 20th to 23rd March 2025. Exact 22nd March

Despite what happened yesterday, many of us will continue to do tomorrow what we did today. That's a somewhat complex way of saying we are all creatures of habit. We resent repetition on one level yet crave it on another.

In your personal world, you're presented with an opportunity to break free from a tired and tedious drama. You are no longer obliged to stick what is tried and tested or very familiar.

If you're willing to invest some effort in releasing yourself from a repetitive situation that no longer suits you, then it can be done. It won't be long before you discover how many other, more suitable options are available to you.

Friday 21st March

Retrograde

A solution in the form of a brainwave

Transiting Venus Retrograde Sextiles your natal Mercury from 21st to 24th March 2025. Exact 23rd March

Life ticks along in ways that we get used to and then suddenly, we find ourselves dealing with a development that truly grabs our attention. We wonder where on Earth such a development could have come from, what caused it or how instrumental we were in making it happen.

Something similar happens with brainwaves. We become very used to a situation that we know is crying out for a new and exciting idea. In your personal world now, that's precisely what you can expect. Powerful forces are being unleashed in your life. You're not quite sure how you ought to be acknowledging or adapting to them.

Let the solution that is determined to make its way to you come to you and then embrace it. It is precisely what you need now.

Retrograde

It's all moving forward

Transiting Venus Retrograde Sextiles your natal Sun from 24th to 28th March 2025. Exact 26th March

Depending on where we are on planet Earth, we're constantly spinning at between 700 and 900 miles per hour. If we stand still, we feel nothing. We're oblivious to how the spinning rock which we inhabit is hurtling through space at approximately 67,000 miles per hour.

So, can it not be said that even when we think nothing is happening in our world or situations show no sign of progress, we're part of a complex process that indicates otherwise? In your personal world now, you probably suspect you're standing still. You're not. You are making real and tangible progress.

You probably suspect a certain situation is far from ideal and makes little sense. Actually, it is very ideal and makes a lot of sense. This is a time to look closely at what appears imperfect and discover that there is a real reason to believe you're much closer to the desired scenario than you probably believe.

Dare to dream

Transiting Venus Retrograde Trines your natal Jupiter from 25th to 29th March 2025. Exact 28th March

Do you dare to dream? Do you risk pursuing any of the wild ideas likely occupying your thoughts now? The answer to both questions is undoubtedly 'yes.' Dream as much as you dare to. Entertain as many of the wild ideas as you can because, in your relationship world now, one or two dreams or ideas will lead you toward a very clever move.

You're entering a time that promises to be more rewarding than you probably suspect, and once you see evidence of rewards, you're likely to want more. Is there a downside to this? The only point to consider surrounds possible belief on your part that any inch should be seized and made into a mile.

At least one tempting possibility is presenting itself, and through your confidence being boosted, you might be oblivious to how charismatic you appear in the eyes of certain others. Go with the flow now and avoid the tendency to be forceful or overly determined. Let what is unfolding naturally do so in its own way while continuing to dream and let ideas create themselves.

Step back…quietly

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Mars from 25th March 2025 to 1st April 2025. Exact 28th March

Opinions, we know, are like certain parts of our anatomy – everyone has one. It is the way some people choose to voice their opinions, and how defensively they do so that causes the most problems between them and others.

The wrong way to do this surrounds conveying an 'I'm not going to back down on this matter' attitude, and that could be what you're inclined to do where your relationship another is concerned. To say friction between you and them is waiting for an opportunity to present itself is an understatement.

You can sidestep an argument and make real, tangible progress by counting to ten and refraining from responding in a way you-know-who is expecting you to respond. Be sensitive and as understanding as you can possibly be.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Retrograde Trines your natal Jupiter from 28th March 2025 to 1st April 2025. Exact 30th March

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Forecast for April 2025

Saturday 29th March

You won't know unless you try

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Neptune from 29th March 2025 to 4th April 2025. Exact 1st April

People often speak about a need to 'look before we leap.' Of course, this makes sense. We want to know what we're leaping into and how safe it is before we do something so rash. You have an excellent opportunity now to trust how leaping into the unknown can take you into unfamiliar but exciting territory.

If a relationship has become too predictable for your liking, then you can try bringing a bit of what's 'untried' and 'untested' into it. If you're of the opinion that a relationship needs a kickstart or an injection of life, then taking a chance with what's new or unorthodox could bring a delightful shift or improvement that rejuvenates whatever is need of rejuvenating!

Also on Saturday

Keeping your distance

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Uranus from 29th March 2025 to 5th April 2025. Exact 2nd April

What's needed now is space. Breathing space. Thinking space. Whatever you want to call it, a need exists to create a brief bit of distance between you and a certain person because a relationship equilibrium is changing.

An arrangement is shifting and as positive as this process is, you and someone special might be inclined to focus on differences between you that could arise as a result of what you're now adjusting to. With change, upheaval and insecurity are never far behind and it might be a bit of both that you and a certain person feel or are experiencing now.

Riding this one out is best done by allowing each other time and space to adjust to what's happening. Just like the hands of a clock only move forward, so too is something in your connection. Trust that it's positive, necessary and possibly overdue.

Tuesday 1st April

Authority can be very sexy

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Moon from 1st to 7th April 2025. Exact 5th April

Men and women alike often find people in positions of authority to be attractive if not very sexy. There's something about the air of authority and confidence someone gives that makes them very appealing, and you can project yourself in such a way.

Don't underestimate the 'no-nonsense' attitude others see you projecting now. You are very likely conveying strong leadership qualities or reassuring ability to take control where one or two people would like to see you take control and you will soon see evidence of how attractive and respected you are in the eyes of more than one person.

Wednesday 2nd April

Keeping your cool

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Saturn from 2nd to 8th April 2025. Exact 6th April

Have you ever wondered how martial arts experts remain so calm and in control one minute but able to put fists through wooden planks or blocks of concrete the next? This ability has much to do with suppressing and targeting anger or hostility.

It also has much to do with an ability to summon patience, discipline, endurance, and resistance. Might such qualities be needed by you where your relationship with a certain person is concerned?

To maintain control of a volatile situation and improve a special connection, all you need to do is smile, count to ten and let any tension dissipate. Trust that it doesn't need to be released in any other way.

Saturday 5th April

Time to be brave

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Venus from 5th to 8th April 2025. Exact 6th April

To what extent might fear of failure or rejection be preventing you from attaining what – or whom – you desire?

You know what you want yet appear to have a fear of declaring or asking for it. Perhaps, it seems easier to give just a tiny bit of yourself or your desires away than lay fully your proverbial cards on the table.

Through convincing yourself that failure or rejection are assured, you're not making the brave moves you need to. It's necessary to give full concentration and focus if you are to be successful with your secret plan.

The first thing to do surrounds making it a secret no longer. Be honest, at least with yourself. Then, make a heartfelt and concerted effort to reach for what (or who) you love.

Tuesday 8th April

Turning heads

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 8th to 11th April 2025. Exact 10th April

Are you a good storyteller? Have you considered hiring yourself out to parties that need an injection of life given to them? If you're not already aware of how engaging and attractive your personality is becoming, then you will do shortly.

There is no doubt that confident people can be attractive in the eyes of many others, but you're blessed with confidence mixed with very strong powers of attraction in other ways, and these could include outgoingness and an enviable sense of light-heartedness.

There could even be a hint of competitiveness in your actions that can only add to your powers of attraction. Simply be yourself now and allow the real you to shine confidently within social circles. You're turning heads for all of the right reasons!

Sunday 6th April

Retrograde

Looking beyond the present

Transiting Venus Retrograde Opposes your natal Uranus from 6th to 18th April 2025. Exact 12th April

Are you aware of your heart beating noticeably faster? Are you also aware of what's making you feel restless or causing a bit more tension in your world than you wish there was? In your relationship world now, you appear to be experiencing as much pleasure as you are pain in some way. In some ways, this is good.

In others, it is far from desirable. What needs to be removed now is indecision, uncertainty, and denial. In amongst all of the above is a genuine reason to be happy and feel optimistic. Avoid the tendency now to focus so intently on immediate dramas and be willing to focus on a much bigger picture. This includes the development you yearn to see happen in your emotional world. Keep reaching for it because it is genuinely attainable.

Monday 7th April

Retrograde

Removing limitations

Transiting Venus Retrograde Trines your natal Neptune from 7th to 17th April 2025. Exact 12th April

Do you feel as if you've taken too much on in some way? Have you taken on too much responsibility, overstretched yourself, embarked upon a plan that you feel you might be unable to finish or embarked on something you feel you might not accomplish?

Sometimes, when we experience too much of a good thing, we forget or ignore our limitations! You are extremely well placed now to put your personal or relationship world on a much stronger footing.

You can bring about change through applying imagination. Be creative. Be imaginative. Be yourself and you can transform something that has been troublesome into something you will welcome and embrace.

Thursday 10th April

An adventure awaits

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Mars from 10th to 13th April 2025. Exact 12th April

People often speak about their desire for 'an easy life.' While we might express a desire for such a thing occasionally, in our hearts, we know that a life without challenge would be a dull life indeed.

Perhaps, in your personal world now, the last thing you want is a challenge. You're under intense pressure and likely aware of a strong urge to prove yourself in some way or instigate change on some level.

What's needed now is perseverance, determination, a generous helping of willpower and, above all, insight. There's something you need to explore. There's an answer you need to find.

Part of you might suspect that 'nearly' knowing something or knowing only a part of it is enough. You know, in your heart, that you need the whole story and all of the facts. You're being encouraged to accept a challenge and invest levels of effort needed to overcome it but have faith in the fact that you have all that you need, and your chances of success are extremely high.

Saturday 12th April

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Jupiter from 12th to 16th April 2025. Exact 14th April

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Sunday 13th April

Where is your effort needed most?

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Jupiter from 13th to 18th April 2025. Exact 16th April

Do you feel as if a need exists to reassess what - or whom - you want? Is the amount of effort you're investing in a relationship - or pursuit of one - worth it? Sometimes, Olympic athletes are very happy to walk away with a silver or bronze medal if gold is, for any reason, unattainable. There's nothing wrong doing that, either.

You're encouraged to assess how likely it is you really will get what you want. You can either continue investing maximum effort or accept how downsizing your expectations slightly might bring you something you can be equally proud of – and still bring a significant and reassuring improvement to your love life.

Monday 14th April

Exploring your options

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Sun from 14th to 17th April 2025. Exact 16th April

People often speak about being 'stuck in ruts.' It's interesting how many people are willing to accept that's how things must be. They convince themselves that a rut they find themselves in will require more effort than they're prepared to give to remove themselves from it, or they fear change that will come as a result of doing so.

You are being presented with an opportunity to instigate a change that will get you out of a rut that you may feel you're stuck in.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Thursday 3rd April

Powers of attraction

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Moon from 3rd to 21st April 2025. Exact 17th April

Like, we know, attracts like. Positive people tend to be drawn toward other positive people. Might positivity you're experiencing now be playing a part in attracting others toward you – or vice versa? The air of confidence and degree of attractiveness you're exuding now cannot and should not be ignored or underestimated.

But, it's all well and good that you're being seen as such an attractive option but what do you intend to do with the influence now available to you? Use it wisely. Use it effectively. Use it to draw a special person toward you or captivate one person whose attention you've wanted for some time.

You're blessed now with an enviable opportunity to use powers of attraction available to you, and no reason exists why you can't attain something very special, very soon.

Tuesday 15th April

Unhealthy competition

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Sun from 15th to 20th April 2025. Exact 18th April

Company bosses and business people often speak about 'healthy competition.' As much as anyone resents having to constantly keep an eye on a competitor, this is often good for business. In the world of relationships though, it can present problems.

If we or the person we're with believe we must prove or change something about ourselves to be seen as a worthier option, then stress and tension almost always follow. In what way has competition become an issue between you and a special individual?

Look closely at what can be gained from going to considerable effort to outdo or outshine someone close now. Time and effort could be spent far more productively to strengthen rather than create any sense of 'one-upmanship' a budding connection or close relationship.

Thursday 17th April

You can rebuild it

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Jupiter from 17th to 19th April 2025. Exact 18th April

Weightlifters understand the concept that building muscle requires muscle fibers to be broken down and allowed to rebuild during a healing process. When they rebuild themselves, they are bigger, better and stronger than before.

The analogy holds some relevance in your personal world now. Something needs to be broken down and rebuilt in some way. However, it's important you focus on how much better a romantic or relationship situation or arrangement will be from doing so.

If something feels right and makes you feel confident and assured, then chances are it doesn't need much of your attention. Focus instead on what you know to be uncertain or unstable. It can be fixed provided you're willing to instigate necessary change that can both heal and strengthen what needs healing or strengthening.

Also on Thursday

The truth needs respect

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mercury from 17th to 19th April 2025. Exact 18th April

We're sometimes accused of 'kidding ourselves.' We often have good reason to resent such a comment. After all, why would someone else be so quick to draw a conclusion about how they feel we've drawn an incorrect or inaccurate conclusion? Where your relationship world is concerned, you have a very good reason to believe you know the truth about something someone else is inclined to think you've grasped the wrong end of the proverbial stick about.

Stick with what you know to be right and real. The truth deserves respect now, and you're in a perfect position to support it, based on what your intuition is telling you.

Wednesday 2nd April

Appreciating what you've got

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Saturn from 2nd to 22nd April 2025. Exact 19th April

We all want what we haven't got. There's nothing wrong with that. We need dreams, goals, wishes or whatever highlights what's missing in our worlds and why we feel inspired and motivated to get it. In your personal or emotional world now, you're being encouraged to make the most of what you DO have available to you.

The problem is, you're struggling to make the most of what you have when you see it as a poor substitute for what you dearly want – or think you want! It's important that you don't talk yourself into a 'state of acceptance' but learn to appreciate what or who you have.

You're being faced with an obstacle of sorts that could even be seen as daunting or worrying but, through be willing to appreciate some of the factors in your relationship with a certain person that you're currently inclined to resent; you will soon see the hidden blessing and wonderful opportunity on offer to you.

Friday 18th April

Don't let fear cause an opportunity to be missed

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Sun from 18th to 20th April 2025. Exact 19th April

We make predictions every day. Sometimes, we're unaware of how many we actually make. Some of these we predict accurately, particularly if we have something historical to refer to. Sometimes, we don't fare quite so well, but that needn't always be cause for consolation.

Where you feel inclined to make certain predictions in an area of your personal world now, don't believe you need to own a crystal ball or possess unique psychic abilities. Investing belief in such things is as unnecessary as investing belief in the fact that whatever it is you're predicting is doomed to failure.

Fear, trepidation or a confidence crisis could be causing you to miss a wonderful opportunity presenting itself. Don't convince yourself that, by focusing on what you believe could go wrong, you're protecting yourself. Assume all will be well, act as if all will be well and you will discover, to your delight, that all will be well.

Sunday 20th April

Smile and walk away

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mercury from 20th to 22nd April 2025. Exact 21st April

Few people love an argument. They might enjoy rising to the occasion, so to speak, but rarely is there any pleasure to be had from engaging in heated discussion or negotiation.

In your personal world now, you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be involved in an argument, intense debate or a very challenging suggestion or you can simply smile and walk away from any of the above.

Of course, doing the latter will require considerable self-control on your part as well as a reasonable amount of faith. You could even find yourself wondering if you dare ignore what appears such a demanding and bothersome issue.

It would, however, be better to detach yourself from the matter presenting itself now than pursue a long, exhausting diversion with what will ultimately prove to be a difficult - and irrelevant - option.

Also on Sunday

Leave emotion out of it

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Mercury from 20th to 25th April 2025. Exact 23rd April

It's no secret that we are often unhappiest with others when we're unhappy with ourselves. When we are struggling with hidden frustrations or a belief that we're not being helped or listened to, then we often release such stress on others.

Interestingly, it is often those closest to us whom we do this to. Emotions are likely to be running high at this time, especially on your part. It's possible you could instigate a discussion that you'll end up wishing you hadn't.

As tempting as it might be to release frustration on a certain person, accept that is precisely what you'll be doing. If you really want to make a point, then keep your emotions in check.

Sunday 27th April

A meeting of like minds

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 27th to 29th April 2025. Exact 28th April

Confidence, we know, can be an attractive quality for someone to possess. We are drawn toward people who exude confidence and impress us with their 'make things happen' attitudes and beliefs.

Before we can feel confident though, we usually want to see some evidence of confidence having played a part in us achieving success previously. You're superbly placed now to benefit from a significant confidence boost that is bound to encourage you to look at what you have achieved and what else might be possible.

Personal success and social accomplishment are on offer. Through putting yourself in a proverbial spotlight, you will discover how much attention you attract and transforming your personal world through a linking of like minds is very possible.

Saturday 26th April

Dare to dream

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Jupiter from 26th to 30th April 2025. Exact 29th April

Do you dare to dream? Do you risk pursuing any of the wild ideas likely occupying your thoughts now? The answer to both questions is undoubtedly 'yes.' Dream as much as you dare to. Entertain as many of the wild ideas as you can because, in your relationship world now, one or two dreams or ideas will lead you toward a very clever move.

You're entering a time that promises to be more rewarding than you probably suspect, and once you see evidence of rewards, you're likely to want more. Is there a downside to this? The only point to consider surrounds possible belief on your part that any inch should be seized and made into a mile.

At least one tempting possibility is presenting itself, and through your confidence being boosted, you might be oblivious to how charismatic you appear in the eyes of certain others. Go with the flow now and avoid the tendency to be forceful or overly determined. Let what is unfolding naturally do so in its own way while continuing to dream and let ideas create themselves.

Monday 28th April

It's all moving forward

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Sun from 28th April 2025 to 2nd May 2025. Exact 30th April

Depending on where we are on planet Earth, we're constantly spinning at between 700 and 900 miles per hour. If we stand still, we feel nothing. We're oblivious to how the spinning rock which we inhabit is hurtling through space at approximately 67,000 miles per hour.

So, can it not be said that even when we think nothing is happening in our world or situations show no sign of progress, we're part of a complex process that indicates otherwise? In your personal world now, you probably suspect you're standing still. You're not. You are making real and tangible progress.

You probably suspect a certain situation is far from ideal and makes little sense. Actually, it is very ideal and makes a lot of sense. This is a time to look closely at what appears imperfect and discover that there is a real reason to believe you're much closer to the desired scenario than you probably believe.

Forecast for May 2025

Thursday 1st May

It is love that makes the world go around

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Venus from 1st to 2nd May 2025. Exact 2nd May

People employed in the financial world often tell us that the past should not be a guideline for the future when investing. Anyone shrewd enough to consider investing in such companies is usually aware of that fact.

Money, they say makes the world go around and if we decide we need money or more of it, then there are options available to us or steps we can take that investment of effort will change.

What about love though? Can we bring about love or more love in our world by making a similar effort? There's enough money in the world for anyone who wants some or more of it but is there a finite amount of love available to us during our lifetimes? Prepare to discover how no such limit exists through being very aware of how loved you are.

Also on Thursday

A solution in the form of a brainwave

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Mercury from 1st to 5th May 2025. Exact 4th May

Life ticks along in ways that we get used to and then suddenly, we find ourselves dealing with a development that truly grabs our attention. We wonder where on Earth such a development could have come from, what caused it or how instrumental we were in making it happen.

Something similar happens with brainwaves. We become very used to a situation that we know is crying out for a new and exciting idea. In your personal world now, that's precisely what you can expect. Powerful forces are being unleashed in your life. You're not quite sure how you ought to be acknowledging or adapting to them.

Let the solution that is determined to make its way to you come to you and then embrace it. It is precisely what you need now.

Saturday 3rd May

If you want agreement, then ask for it

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 3rd to 5th May 2025. Exact 4th May

If one person takes on board or has faith in what we're telling them, then that bodes well for others doing similarly. If, in a group situation, we find that something we're suggesting or proposing is met with receptiveness and approval, then there's clearly relevance to what we're saying.

You can make tangible progress or improve a love connection in some way by conveying to someone in your world something you feel is important and must be said. If you've had reservations about speaking up previously for any reason, then abandon them now. You have a point to make, can make it confidently and expect it to be met with agreement if make your point or pose your question confidently. It might be your confidence or enthusiasm that wins them over.

Sunday 4th May

Stand back and smile

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Mars from 4th to 6th May 2025. Exact 5th May

Tense situations tend to escalate. They do so if we don't want them to. They certainly do so if we encourage them to. Somewhere in your world, an intense debate is either brewing or happening. In the same way animals lock horns, it appears you and a certain person are doing similar. There is a way you can seriously reduce or eliminate altogether the amount of stress involved in this scenario.

The key to doing so surrounds being less determined to retain control over something you really ought to be less concerned about. Rather than invest time in waiting for an ideal outcome to present itself and invest even more time and energy into a heated discussion, detach yourself and be as congenial and accommodating as possible.

This drama won't last long, and you can be instrumental in it having a happy ending.

Tuesday 6th May

Let time bring a desired improvement

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Venus from 6th to 8th May 2025. Exact 7th May

In the same way it can be difficult to remove a song embedded in our minds, it can be as equally difficult to banish thoughts or images.

In your personal world now, there is something or someone you feel very attracted to, intrigued by and excited about but banishing this thought could prove to be an exercise in futility.

However, the good news is, you don't have to make a real, concerted effort to do anything at this stage. You can afford to wait until you're in a better position to make a move.

Have faith in the fact that your situation will improve naturally over time and, where your love life is concerned, if it leaves much to be desired then have even more faith in the fact that, very soon, you can expect proof of how desired by at least one person you are.

Thursday 8th May

Seeing a situation as it really is

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Jupiter from 8th to 10th May 2025. Exact 9th May

If you're not seeing eye-to-eye with a certain person or are aware that tension is escalating between you and them, then coming developments could help. However, that doesn't necessarily mean such help won't bring further tension because a certain situation might need to worsen slightly before it can be improved. Think of the saying about the need to break eggs sometimes!

There appears to be uncertainty between you and someone close regarding an arrangement and where it goes from here. You're not as trapped as you might believe you are.

If you're willing to make progress and improve an arrangement that may no longer be valid and in need of updating, then a superb opportunity exists to do so now. The key to achieving this lies with you not seeing an issue as being bigger or more daunting than it really is.

Also on Thursday

Cut the niceties and let truth reveal itself

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Pluto from 8th to 11th May 2025. Exact 10th May

Sometimes, we hear what people say but can't help wonder what it is they really mean. Other times, we're painfully aware of how easily some people can avoid discussing a particular issue.

There are also people who want to listen but fail to grasp the concept of real, meaningful communication.

In your personal world, you're likely retracing old ground where a discussion with a particular person is concerned. Where there has been little in the way of progress previously, it is through an urgent, pressing reason presenting itself now that a need to cut niceties and exchange truth exists.

It's time for you and you-know-who to 'come clean.' Believe it is best that this has happened later than not at all and it is not too late to have the discussion that needs to be had.

Friday 9th May

Smile sweetly and look for what truly deserves your attention

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Sun from 9th to 10th May 2025. Exact 10th May

Should you turn the other cheek? Should you ignore provocation? Doing either will require much self-control. It will also require faith on your part because the act of ignoring such a bothersome factor is one that is unlikely be done easily. If you want to involve yourself in a pointless debate, then you can.

However, all the indications are, where tension exists between you and a certain person, you ought to avoid a drama that is better left alone. Something more constructive needs your time and attention. Look closely at what is far more simple, sweet and clearer and focus on that.

Saturday 10th May

Time to be selective

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Mercury from 10th to 11th May 2025. Exact 11th May

We often resent having no options available to us. Then, we resent having too many. We like having a choice, but not too much choice. It is through having a bit too much choice in your relationship world now that is causing you to make what can only be described as a controversial decision – and making that is likely to bring about a controversial result!

Avoid giving time and attention to something or someone unworthy of both. With little effort, you can identify what or whom does deserve your attention. From there, you can make a decision that brings tangible and potentially heart-warming progress – and might cease a few tongues from wagging!

Monday 12th May

Ignore the voice of negativity

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Neptune from 12th to 15th May 2025. Exact 14th May

In Looney Tunes cartoons, characters often had an angel and a devil on either shoulder that only they could see. The angel would whisper positive words of advice and encouragement while the devil would delight in causing trouble by encouraging the character to do something he knew, in his heart, was wrong.

You have no angel or devil on your shoulder now but do possess instinct and intuition. Both often speak with us, but we can choose to ignore the positive voice we should be heeding and take too much notice of the one we shouldn't: the voice of negativity.

If we choose to ignore our intuition, it's often because we believe we're under too much pressure or it clearly cannot see the seriousness of a situation in ways our eyes can. We fear failure and how we might look in the eyes of others should we fail.

The voice of negativity is now drowning out the voice of inner wisdom. If you truly want to make progress in an area of your personal world now, then you need to learn to ignore negativity and take serious notice of the positive words of encouragement your inner wisdom offers. You know what plan of action is wrong and what plan of action is right. That's all you need to know.

Also on Monday

Embrace the chaos

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Uranus from 12th to 15th May 2025. Exact 14th May

Sometimes, when we become aware of a need to 'sort something out,' we discover there could be benefits to going above the call of duty and making a situation more chaotic or disrupted to sort it out properly.

The same can be said about an area of your personal world now. Allow chaos trying to present itself to do so. Embrace the unusual, the unpredictable or even what appears downright disruptive. We lead lives that tend to be very orderly and predictable. You're being encouraged to allow and accept disruption in your world now and look likely to be grateful for it.

It's time to alter a situation, arrangement or agreement that has been stale and static for too long. Be willing to invite some chaos and, once the proverbial dust settles, you look set to make more than one valuable discovery.

Tuesday 13th May

Let go to create necessary space

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Moon from 13th to 16th May 2025. Exact 15th May

Some people make plans. They then, for whatever reason, believe the plans they made need back-up plans in case original plans fail. Then, they decide backup plans need contingency plans. Such a process could go on indefinitely but is such effort really needed?

Somewhere in your personal world, there is a gift that needs to be embraced and enjoyed, not grabbed and rationed. You're under considerable pressure to be more than one place at once, solve every problem in an instant, control every aspect of your environment, please one person, influence another and prove something to someone else.

It's understandable you should feel so inclined to show strength, be the 'fixer,' the winner or the judge. Do you really want all of that? Is it not fair to say that all you truly want is to be happy, comfortable and calm?

You can achieve all three provided you're willing to let go of so much you feel obliged to retain or regain control of. If you create space by letting go of what or whom needs letting go of, then you will soon see how quickly that space is filled with something or someone so much more suitable.

Wednesday 14th May

Care with Clarity

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 14th to 15th May 2025. Exact 15th May

Back in medieval times, kings and queens had Court Jesters, individuals whose role involved entertaining monarchs. It was in Jesters' best interests to ensure the king or queen laughed when they were supposed to. Otherwise, Jesters often met with an untimely end. Think though, what might have happened if one poor Jester was sent to his death and the king or queen fell about laughing having 'got' a joke after it was too late. It's important that you make no assumption now about someone understanding a point you're keen to convey.

Don't take the fact that they're nodding as acceptance or understanding on their part. Take your time to ensure you're not misunderstood. Something this important is worth getting right.

Also on Wednesday

Trusting instincts in the absence of facts

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Saturn from 14th to 16th May 2025. Exact 15th May

When a need to be decisive presents itself, then the process tends to be considerably easier when we believe we have all or at least enough facts to assist with the decision.

If we don't have enough facts, then what happens? That depends on how urgently we must make our decision but, more often than not, we call upon our instincts to assist us.

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to trust your deepest instinct in the absence of factual information. Take at face value to a point what you're seeing or are being encouraged to accept is real.

Far better progress will be made if you're willing to trust what you're telling yourself. Do that, and then pursue the decision that needs to be made with all your heart.

Sunday 18th May

Life and money

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Venus from 18th to 20th May 2025. Exact 19th May

A relationship needs to be redefined now, but you might be surprised at what relationship you're expected to redefine. It is your relationship with life that needs to be assessed.

It is also your relationship with bits of paper and metal we use to purchase things with that needs new perspective put upon it. What is it you're expected to do? Well, that's easy. All you need to do where life and money are concerned is not take either so seriously.

That's not to say you don't have issues surrounding both that do need addressing. You're being encouraged to address what cannot be ignored – but you're also being encouraged to accept that, one action has been taken, worrying is an exercise in futility.

Face what needs facing. Sort what needs sorting, and life will undoubtedly become noticeably sweeter and less tense.

Remain on the side-lines

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 18th to 20th May 2025. Exact 19th May

It can be frustrating when we believe ourselves able to see what someone else cannot. A way forward might be crystal clear to us yet, for some reason, someone else simply cannot connect with it.

When this happens, some people feel inclined to take the reins and control of a situation, hoping to guide the person they believe to be misguided or oblivious to the right decision or destination.

Avoid a tendency now to believe you know what's best for others or a certain person in your world. By all means, show understanding, be willing to be supportive and compassionate but consider the fact that some people have their own agendas and are determined to stick with them.

That doesn't make either of you 'wrong' but, as much as you might believe yourself to be best placed to provide guidance or encourage someone to reconsider a belief, you could gain so much more now from stepping back and letting others do what suits them.

Monday 19th May

Timing and trust

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Sun from 19th to 21st May 2025. Exact 20th May

Making what we believe to be 'the right move' relies on us possessing some degree of skill and timing. What matters now is not whether you have 'the advantage' in some way but whether or not you possess confidence and patience to know when 'the right time' exists to make 'the right move.'

Power and control you have yearned for in an area of your personal world are making their way to you. Before you can receive both properly though, you need to accept what it is you do have at your disposal: an opportunity.

Be prepared to trust in ways you have been unwilling to trust previously. This will help you to identify the opportunity presenting itself and the wonderful possibility that accompanies it.

It will soon be within your abilities to make something seemingly minor into something very significant. When you see evidence of this, then you can expect soon afterward to see a noticeable boost to your confidence and optimism levels.

Tuesday 20th May

A valuable discovery is the catalyst to transforming a situation

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Pluto from 20th to 21st May 2025. Exact 21st May

We can be surrounded by many people but feel alone. This can be heightened enormously when we're struggling in some way and support we need from one or two people isn't forthcoming. This leaves us with having to tackle an issue singlehandedly and we understandably aren't usually over the moon to have to do so.

The good news is, you're very capable of tackling on your own what needs to be tackled. It is the discovery of a certain piece of information that will boost your confidence. Once done, you will feel confident enough to face certain issues or individuals you've feared facing. You'll be more inclined to bring out into the open what has been conveniently brushed under a proverbial carpet.

This new-found confidence, combined with real desire to bring about a significant change to a certain situation, will result in very positive and necessary transformation where you have long wanted to see it.

Wednesday 21st May

Desire could overthrow logic

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Neptune from 21st to 23rd May 2025. Exact 22nd May

Will a little bit of what you fancy do you good? That depends on how certain you are about repercussions or consequences of pursuing or accepting it.

Even if someone is less than honest with you, it is important you are honest with yourself now. Even if someone is being very persuasive and encouraging you to reconsider your options in some way, be 'live' to the possibility that you could end up kidding yourself.

Desire could overthrow logic, but the final choice is yours. Make a decision based on what you know to be real, solid and safe and ensure wisdom plays a very big part as well.

Also on Wednesday

Think it through

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Uranus from 21st to 23rd May 2025. Exact 22nd May

Sometimes, we feel inclined to cause a stir or create upheaval just to see what happens. We reach a point where we become bored with how predictable or devoid of opportunity a situation appears to have become and decide to shake things up a bit.

That's fine, provided we accept the consequences of doing so - and blame for it should fingers be pointed our direction! If you feel inclined to shake things up a bit in your relationship world, then feel free to do so. However, be aware that action will always cause a reaction and you will need to accept responsibility for the change you instigate. Be sure you genuinely want the change you'll bring before you take the action you're considering taking now.

Also on Wednesday

Confidence brings support

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mercury from 21st to 23rd May 2025. Exact 22nd May

At what point do we become aware that we've given enough effort to a particular area? This usually coincides with a clear message that comes to us from deep within our brains that we're pleased with a result, for the time being, anyway. It also comes from communication from others that we're doing something right or they understand what it is we set out to achieve.

So, with that in mind, why do you feel so answerable to so many people? Why do these people seem incapable of sharing your view, position or plan at face value? Why isn't something as obvious to others as it is to you?

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to assert yourself and be less conciliatory. In other words, the time has come for you not to give in so easily or be quite as willing to placate certain others – or someone in particular.

If you're willing to boost your confidence levels and invest just a bit more effort to make a point, then you are likely to be both surprised and delighted at how supported you really are.

Thursday 22nd May

Releasing emotion is the key to greater understanding

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Moon from 22nd to 23rd May 2025. Exact 23rd May

We often hear people talk about 'bottling emotions.' Does this pictorial analogy hold any relevance for you now? There appears to be an emotion you need to express. It also appears that you have some concerns about whether anyone – or one person in particular – will acknowledge or listen to whatever it is you need to make clear.

Making your feelings clear will not only make you feel better, but it will also bring a revelation. You'll gain valuable insight into a situation that has confused you and will understand something that you've possibly struggled to understand previously.

So, don't hold back. It's in your and someone else's best interests that you release what needs to be released now.

Also on Thursday

Let your inner voice enthuse you

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Saturn from 22nd to 23rd May 2025. Exact 23rd May

Sometimes, for an easier life, we can be a bit too quick to simply agree with someone else because we don't believe we have the energy, inclination or ability to disagree with them. Because enthusiasm can be infectious, we sometimes believe it to be easier to latch on to someone else's enthusiasm for something rather than find our own reasons for being fired up about pursuing something.

Before you allow yourself to be influenced by someone's enthusiasm for a plan or arrangement, consider what your inner voice is telling you.

You don't need to follow in ways you believe you must. You can take the lead and are right to trust your own judgment about something. Take a moment to step back and make a decision on your own without pressure coming from you-know-who.

Reasons to be more than cheerful

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Venus from 22nd to 25th May 2025. Exact 23rd May

If we watch the news any night on TV or pick up a newspaper at any time, we're given plenty of reasons to believe that the world in which we live is far from the beautiful and peaceful place it was intended to be. With little effort, we can create numerous reasons to worry about anything or identify problems and difficulties.

It's very easy to overlook or ignore completely how beautiful the world in which we live truly is. Too many people regard life as a constant struggle instead of the precious gift it is. Have you reasons to look upon your personal world with such pessimism? Are your relationships with certain people or one person in particular less than ideal or how you'd like them to be?

Expect, very soon, to see real reasons to be grateful for all that is truly wonderful where your interactions with certain people are concerned. Prepare to be inspired even if those around you fail to see what you have to be so happy about!

Friday 23th May

Biting off more than you can chew

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Venus from 23rd to 27th May 2025. Exact 25th May

Songwriters know how effective it can be to leave gaps in compositions. If music was constant, it would be too much for the ear and brain to absorb. Horror filmmakers also know how our imaginations can create something far scarier than any filmmaker could create.

The point surrounds how effective something that isn't there can be compared to something that is. In your relationship world now, it's what isn't said or conveyed that is putting you in a strong position. Make no mistake; your attraction levels are high and so too are your creative and financial prospects.

However, be careful with your charisma now. It's what you convey without words that needs to be watched. This could cause a loved one or potential partner to misinterpret your powerful vibe or read more into something you convey innocuously. That might sound thrilling and sexy but could bring a host of problems if you don't maintain a bit of distance or detachment.

Saturday 24th May

You can't fail to impress now

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 24th to 25th May 2025. Exact 25th May

Experienced magicians can impress others because of countless hours of practicing. The same can be said about musicians. To do something impressive usually takes considerable time to perfect. How frustrating it must be for them when some people overlook how much time and effort has been invested to perfect their talent or skill.

In your relationship world now, you can not only make something wonderful happen but can also impress more than one person with how you do it. You're about to make a decision that alters an unsatisfactory situation beyond recognition. The process though is not as instant as it may appear.

You've had to go through an intense trial and error period, but now that you have perfected, in your mind, a way forward, you cannot fail to impress others - including yourself!

Also on Saturday

Give it your all

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Sun from 24th to 26th May 2025. Exact 25th May

Sometimes, we view mistakes as something to be avoided at all costs. We go out of our way to ensure they don't happen because we see them as the ultimate setback. However, we should see mistakes as essential steps in a learning process and stepping stones to progress we yearn to make.

The progress you yearn to make now within your relationship world is important to you. It deserves respect you're keen to give it and also deserves the success you want to achieve. Whether or not you achieve either or both depends entirely on how seriously you want either or both.

Aim at nothing, and you're guaranteed to hit it. Give what matters most to you time, attention and effort, and you stand to be both amazed and delighted by what you achieve.

Sunday 25th May

Embracing the 'feel good factor'

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Mercury from 25th to 27th May 2025. Exact 26th May

What would make you happier? Everyone has a list of sorts that contains what would make us feel more comfortable or at ease with life. Would more money be on your list? What about an improvement in your personal and emotional or romantic life?

It seems that good news is winging its way to you that is bound to bring more than just a smile on your face. To receive it, all you must do is show some effort to embrace it. Where your relationships are concerned, your newly-found 'feel good factor' might be infectious!

Also on Sunday

Taking the initiative

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 25th to 28th May 2025. Exact 27th May

We know that, when the going gets tough, the tough are known to get going. Some people enjoy rising to particular challenges and being seen to 'prove' themselves. Similarly, there is a challenge you must rise to and demonstrate to a few people how willing you are to prove yourself.

Perhaps, where your personal world is concerned, you've grown used or accustomed to wanting something simply because you feel you deserve it. Now, it is probably becoming clear that to attain what – or whom – you want, you have to demonstrate your keenness or worthiness.

Don't shy from the challenge offered now. You can not only make real and tangible progress with a particular person and possibly surprise yourself and them at the same time.

Tuesday 27th May

Change of the exciting variety

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Mars from 27th to 30th May 2025. Exact 29th May

Satisfaction is a state of mind. We are only ever briefly satisfied with any situation in our world because need always exists for us to want more or to sustain in some way the level of satisfaction we're feeling. That doesn't make us ungrateful or selfish. No situation is stagnant or without a change in some way. In your personal world now, there is a challenge you must rise to.

This will require as much energy and attention that you can give to it. There is a change you must bring about, and once you embark upon the task of making it happen, a process will move quite quickly. Imagine yourself seated in a rollercoaster that has begun moving.

Once the process has begun, you have no option other than to see it through. Despite any fear or reservations you might have about what you must do now, you are likely to find the experience more thrilling than daunting. Do what needs doing, take action where it's needed and be receptive to the fact that you could actually end up enjoying the ride.

Wednesday 28th May

Repetition is not necessary

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal MidHeaven from 28th to 30th May 2025. Exact 29th May

Some television commercials can be extremely annoying. Companies who make commercials and those whose products or services they represent are unconcerned about this.

As far as they're concerned, they have a valid point to make and will make as often as they see fit until they're reassured an advertising campaign has been successful or budgets have run out.

They often fail to understand that their incessant intrusion does little more than discourage many of us from buying their products or services. Bear this in mind with a point you want to make now.

You might believe making a point repeatedly will result in the person or people you wish to influence succumbing, but this plan can backfire if you're not careful. You'll gain much support if you make your point sensibly, succinctly and sensitively.

Also on Wednesday

Go solo - for now

Transiting Sun Squares your natal MidHeaven from 28th to 30th May 2025. Exact 29th May

Many of us adhere to the old saying, 'if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly.' An extension of this saying goes 'if a job's worth doing, then it's worth doing yourself' in the belief that, sometimes, if we want something to be done in a way we will be satisfied with, then we must undertake to do it ourselves.

In your personal world now, there is something that you ought to consider doing solo without help or intervention from others. You could be prone to negative criticism from one or two people, possibly those you believe to be authoritative in some way, who don't quite connect with what it is you're trying to achieve.

This doesn't make them or you wrong. It means you have some work to do to reassure certain people or a certain person that an ambitious plan is viable. That's why you might need to 'go it alone' for the time being to gain support and understanding where both might be unavailable now.

Thursday 29th May

Confidence attracts

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 29th May 2025 to 2nd June 2025. Exact 31st May

What qualities make someone attractive? Beauty is, as they say, skin deep and we all know that there are many other qualities that can make someone attractive in the eyes of others or a certain person.

Laughter is a proven aphrodisiac but so too is confidence. Who couldn't be swept off their feet by someone who has high levels of confidence and self-esteem? It is your growing confident – and possibly assertive – approach that will not only make you extra alluring in someone's eyes but could also help you take a bold step to form, strengthen or improve a special connection.

Forecast for June 2025

Sunday 1st June

Applying ingenuity can bring something magical

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Venus from 1st to 3rd June 2025. Exact 2nd June

Does the word 'genius' get used more today than at other times throughout history? Think about how fantastic inventions were many years ago that have become accepted and taken for granted today.

Surely, something created by someone else that stands the test of time through acceptance by so many people is worthy of the accolade 'genius'? It is how you are likely to apply ingenuity now that put you in a wonderfully strong position.

It seems that comfort is winging its way to you and most likely in a material or financial sense. But real, long-lasting comfort is likely to come from you devising a clever plan and pursuing a wonderful idea and doing either or both will, undoubtedly, enhance your relationship with someone else, or present you with one that could arguably be heaven sent.

Also on Sunday

Drop barriers

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Mars from 1st to 5th June 2025. Exact 3rd June

Many people say they don't care what others think of them. In truth, that's rarely the case. We all, to some extent, care what others think and prefer them to think well of us.

Something that does tend to cause others to think otherwise if focusing on our own needs is done at the cost of others.

You are likely very aware now of how and why you ought to be putting your own needs and desires first, and if you want to embark upon a new relationship or strengthen an existing one, then this is likely to cause one or two problems.

Look closely at how defensiveness might be playing a part in this – and then look more closely at why you have no reason to feel quite so defensive!

Monday 2nd June

Removing the window dressing

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Pluto from 2nd to 4th June 2025. Exact 3rd June

Beauty, we know, is skin deep. However, so much emphasis is put on making what we see so appealing. In the same way we know we shouldn't judge books by covers, you may be placing too much importance on soemthing in your emotional world that is not as valuable or as relevant as it seems.

If you want to achieve or attain something truly and deeply satisfying, then you need to care less about what doesn't deserve the levels of attention you appear keen to give it.

To bring about a much-needed change or improvement to a close connection, a tense or potentially difficult conversation needs to be had. You might even discover you possess the courage to say a few things you've been afraid to say or chose, for reasons known best to yourself, to keep hidden.

Provided you're willing to see an unsatisfactory or disguised situation for what it is, be resolute toward improving it in whatever way you deem fit and say what you know needs to be said from the depths of your heart, then you can be assured you will have nothing whatsoever to be apologetic or regretful about.

Tuesday 3rd June

Let your words and ideas flow

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Ascendant from 3rd to 4th June 2025. Exact 4th June

If someone is to agree with what we're proposing, then it helps if they're in a positive and receptive frame of mind. Children learn from a young age when to time their requests with adults and you're encouraged to believe in a perfect position to do similarly now.

You're urged to put forth a suggestion, proposal or to simply convey your thoughts or ideas to a certain person where conditions previously may have made doing so difficult.

Choose your words, say what you need to say, and you'll likely find your words not only flow but are received in a much more positive way than you expected.

Also on Tuesday

Confidence in measured doses

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Jupiter from 3rd to 6th June 2025. Exact 5th June

We hear people say that they or others 'don't know their own strength.' Throughout history and in popular culture, there have been many characters who possessed superhuman strength and, despite being able to make spectacular things happen, often found themselves wishing they were a bit more delicate or sensitive.

In your personal world now, you are being blessed with an impressive ability to cause things to happen with the sheer force of your will. This, combined with an ability to be smart and generally lucky, is putting you in a very strong position. Be careful.

Avoid any tendency to be unnecessarily forceful or overly determined. Where your relationships with certain people – and likely one person in particular – are concerned, you can achieve a spectacular result. Be realistic and confident. But not too confident!

Wednesday 4th June

Leave aggression on the doorstep

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Mars from 4th to 5th June 2025. Exact 5th June

How we choose to convey ourselves or make a point is often dictated by our mood or attitude at the time. If we're feeling resentful, aggrieved or angry, then we sometimes use a proverbial sledgehammer to crack a proverbial walnut when a much simpler and less confrontational way would have been best.

It's important you bear that in mind now. Your impatience to make a certain point might be underpinned with more aggression than you intend. Be diplomatic and ensure sensitivity plays a big part in whatever it is you feel the need to say to a certain person now.

Also on Wednesday

You can fix what needs fixing

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Uranus from 4th to 6th June 2025. Exact 5th June

For us to 'fix' something, we must identify in what way or ways it's broken. In the same way a doctor cannot give a diagnosis or prescription without being clear what remedy is needed, we can only fix what needs fixing if we understand what needs fixing and why.

In your relationship world, a drama is unfolding. It is through knowing how a certain situation can be adjusted or rearranged that offers the greatest and most effective way to improve it.

Ignore the desire to be somewhere else. Removing yourself isn't the answer. The solution surrounds more meaning or depth given to a tired situation, and that's precisely what you can bring. Have faith in the fact that you can improve a love life scenario and time is on your side to achieve this.

Tuesday 3rd June

Keeping feet firmly on the ground…for now

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Neptune from 3rd to 7th June 2025. Exact 6th June

How realistic are you now? Think carefully before answering that question. You could be in a situation that is restrictive but aren't inclined to remove yourself from it because you fear you might feel lost were it to be removed.

The same can be said about particular hopes and aspirations you have. To achieve these will require upheaval but are you prepared for how much upheaval you may experience?

It's important to accept that, by highlighting such points, a partner isn't trying to dampen your enthusiasm for something that does inspire and motivate you – even if it involves your relationship with this person.

However, you are encouraged to simply be realistic about what can be achieved between you. Avoid fanciful thoughts now and focus solely on what can be agreed and achieved together. You could find sharing a realistic strategy to make a dream become real reduces your stress levels.

Wednesday 4th June

Let the real you emerge

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Sun from 4th to 7th June 2025. Exact 6th June

There's a certain person in your world deserving of more respect than you're showing them. There's a particular individual concerned unnecessarily about how they're seen in the eyes of certain others. You know this person very well and, to discover their identity, all you have to do is look in the nearest mirror.

In your personal world, need exists for you to muster a bit more self-respect and dignity than you might be used to mustering. That doesn't mean you have a specific reason to be more self-respectful, but neither does it mean one isn't being created.

If you really want to emerge from any situation with the ability to walk tall and proud, then abandon entirely any concerns about how you look in the eyes of others. Trust what you feel to be right and don't succumb to any pressure from certain others about what you ought to be feeling.

Thursday 5th June

The answer is in the past

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Saturn from 5th to 6th June 2025. Exact 6th June

What makes someone an 'expert' at something? Is it the authoritative way in which they speak? Is it because their appearance reassures us that they know what they're talking about?

If we're told something enough times, then we start believing it – especially if what's told to us is something we tell ourselves! It's important you draw a conclusion based on personal, previous experience – not what someone is trying to convince you of.

Something from your past needs revisiting and re-examining now. To make a very positive change or bring an improvement to a special connection, all you need to do is accept that there is something you don't know or know enough about.

Whatever happened previously will help you identify this. Once you do identify it, you will begin to ask questions about something from your past that has confused you that will then lead to a very valuable discovery and a potentially wonderful development.

Friday 6th June

Love you can depend on

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Venus from 6th to 9th June 2025. Exact 7th June

People sometimes go to great lengths in a material sense to show their affection toward another. Flowers and chocolates are wonderful to receive but not when the recipient isn't interested in such grand and seemingly empty gestures.

What you want is a particular person to be more consistently sweeter toward you. That's all. Methods they're choosing to use are likely falling short of what you believe you want and need and, if anything, such material gestures might even be making you feel more suspicious than grateful.

You want love you can depend on and, fortunately, you're closer to attaining that than you might think.

Curiously, both your bank account and heart look set to receive a very welcome boost. In your personal world though, you can expect proof of your ability to attract affection. Prepare, very soon, to attain what you feel most desirous of or is lacking where love, romance, and intimacy are concerned.

Thursday 5th June

Count to ten and relax

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Moon from 5th to 9th June 2025. Exact 8th June

It doesn't take much for some people to become very defensive. All they need is the slightest perceived need to do so, and woe betide anyone on the receiving end of their response.

Fortunately, such feelings or actions tend to be short-lived but if you feel an urge to defend yourself then look closely at why you feel this is necessary.

It's possible that your need stems more from emotions running high than any real reason to convey yourself so defensively or assertively. You can protect what it is important to you now without causing a scene. You could also surprise someone close by reacting or responding sensitively and compassionately. Try that and see what it does to strengthen or improve a connection.

Friday 6th June

Facing what needs to be faced

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Mercury from 6th to 9th June 2025. Exact 8th June

When we feel unable to relax, the last thing we want to hear is someone telling us to relax. After all, we have our reasons for feeling tetchy, nervous or apprehensive and believe that anyone who tries to convince us otherwise clearly is unable to grasp what we believe we understand.

There are, however, limits to how much anyone can worry. In your personal world now, it's important you accept how, through ignoring something that needs to be acknowledged, you're not coming close to creating a solution.

Through denying the existence of a problem, you also deny yourself an opportunity to take constructive action to remedy it. Deal now with what you are trying to ignore. It isn't as daunting as it appears, and life will become sweeter once you have faced what needs facing.

Monday 9th June

A storm in a teacup

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Pluto from 9th to 11th June 2025. Exact 10th June

We understand that the bark of some dogs is more of an issue than their bite. We also know how some people can talk incessantly or authoritatively but actually say very little.

Somewhere in your personal world, an annoying point of conflict is making itself known, or presence felt. It intends to ensure you take it seriously and won't take kindly to being ignored.

You, on the other hand, have the upper hand. While the issue is keen to ensure it receives the attention it deserves, you have a choice about how much of an issue you want it to be and how much of your time and attention you believe it deserves.

By all means, acknowledge the issue but see it for what it really is – a mere storm in a proverbial tea cup.

Also on Monday

Attracting confidence

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Ascendant from 9th to 12th June 2025. Exact 11th June

The list of what people find attractive in others is a long one. Beauty, we understand, is skin deep. Remove such attraction from the list and what are left with? Confidence, for example, can be very attractive.

It is confidence you're showing now that could be your most attractive asset, but it needs to be used responsibly. In the same way pepper can enhance the taste of a stew, too much often spoils it. By all means, exert the justified confidence you feel but guard against coming across too strong or bullying.

Progress in your personal world can be made through attracting certain others in specific ways. If you appear assured, then you can trust that you will be sending out very much the right kind of signal.

Once done, you could be surprised at how magnetic you are to those you'd like to be closer to and who are keen to be closer to you.

Wednesday 11th June

Harnessing power available to you

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mars from 11th to 14th June 2025. Exact 13th June

People sometimes speak about atmosphere's being or feeling 'electric.' In your personal world now, it's likely you could experience a few flying sparks.

Trust that the energy available to you now is extremely positive and is intended to help. You have, at your disposal, the ability to repair much of what needs repairing as far as relationships, situations, and arrangements with others are concerned. You are blessed with an ability to improve much in your own world while, at the same time, the world of others - or a certain person to whom you are close or want to be closer to.

The more constructively you use the power and influence available to you now, the more of both you will discover you have available to you.

Thursday 12th June

Gentle persuasion is key

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal MidHeaven from 12th to 13th June 2025. Exact 13th June

There have been many popular songs that have focused on difference of opinion. One person says or believes one thing. Another person says or believes something else. Interestingly, such songs have only highlighted the problem without proposing a solution.

Where you and a certain person in your relationship world are potentially locking horns now, might this be due to a clash of opinion? The key to resolving this lies with continued and open communication. You're both closer to reaching a compromise than you believe.

It's fine, natural and acceptable for someone to adopt a contrary position but if success you want to see happen relies on them supporting your ideas or proposals, then with gentle persuasion and reiterating benefits to them of what you're proposing, you can achieve it.

Friday 13th June

Cooperation is key

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 13th to 15th June 2025. Exact 14th June

Some people always insist on 'getting their way.' They tend to be largely unconcerned about what matters to others. All that does matter, it seems, is that they 'win' in some way. Such people want those they're trying to persuade to simply succumb and do what's demanded of them.

In your personal world now, you are likely adopting a completely contrary point of view in some way. You know that to get what – or whom – you want, you don't have to be heavy-handed. You need encourage peace and harmony, and you'll discover it will prevail over any tension.

To make progress on personal or romantic fronts, be seen to be approachable and willing to compromise where necessary. The key to progress now relies entirely upon cooperation, not obstruction.

Push is coming to shove

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Uranus from 13th to 15th June 2025. Exact 14th June

Somewhere in your personal world, 'push' is about to meet 'shove.' It is only a matter of time before both come together.

You have the option to wait and see what happens when these two collide. Like any collision, there's a very strong possibility you'll not find the experience pleasurable to view or be part of.

That's why it's important you see the signs, smell the coffee or read writing on the proverbial wall. You can bring about a change that will alleviate much of the potential stress or damage in a relationship by taking action before you're left with no alternative other than to accept what's likely to occur.

Take control and allow yourself to feel more powerful. You can do it and, when you do, you'll discover how powerful and influential you really are.

Saturday 14th June

Shake off apathy

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Saturn from 14th to 17th June 2025. Exact 15th June

Imagine you're standing on the edge of a high diving board, peering down to the water below but have strong reservations about taking the plunge. Imagine as well that, behind you, a queue of impatient and more experienced divers wait for you to make up your mind about what you're going to do.

That analogy sums up a situation in your personal world now. You're clearly under pressure in some way to take action or make a decision yet it's important you are being pressured in the way you are because otherwise you won't make the decision or move you truly need to make.

You have a difficult dispute to solve or a complicated story to unravel yet, through a constant source of aggravation, aren't feeling inclined to consider a particular course of action. It's time to shake off apathy and seize a valuable opportunity. Like most opportunities, yours might be hidden within a perceived problem, but trust that the opportunity being presented to you now is very real.

Wednesday 18th June

Right here, right now is what matters

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Pluto from 18th to 20th June 2025. Exact 19th June

There is much to be said about adopting a 'right here, right now' attitude because it is what's happening here and now, particularly where your relationship world is concerned, that needs and deserves attention. This will probably require you to shift your focus from the future briefly.

However, it's important you don't try to hasten a process unfolding in its own way and time. Despite how results, progress or certain romantic or relationship improvements were more encouraging or visible, it's important you trust that you are in the throes of a positive and transformative process. Soon, your current love life circumstances will likely appear vastly different.

That, however, is going to be the result of the process working on your behalf that cannot be rushed. Focus instead on here and now in the knowledge that change or improvement you yearn for is coming, and soon.

Friday 20th June

Is a plan worthy of your efforts?

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Mars from 20th to 21st June 2025. Exact 21st June

The word 'passion' has several uses and connotations. We also know when the time is right to invest energy in a plan or pursuit and it is the need to give your all to something combined with impatience or urgency that could be boosting passion in some way now.

Ideas, suggestions, and situations could be coming thick and fast now which may not be helping matters. Where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, you're likely to need to show restraint to avoid a confrontation or making an ill-thought-through proposal or suggestion.

Slow down and assess if what you're planning is deserving of energy you're inclined to give it. If it is, then give it your all and don't look back. If you have reservations, then trust they exist for a good reason.

Also on Friday

Seeing what needs to be seen

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Neptune from 20th to 22nd June 2025. Exact 22nd June

Every day and within every situation we encounter, there is beauty and magic to be seen. It can take strength and courage to see what is less beautiful or magical sometimes and you have recently had to summon strength and courage to accept something in your world.

Your outlook, particularly where your world of relationships is concerned, is one of clarity, understanding, and positivity.

You are in a much better position now to make a choice than you were recently and, through being better informed now than you were, can expect to have your spirits lifted enormously. That doesn't mean every answer you seek to a confusing or difficult situation will become available, but you will gain enough information shortly to be able to proceed confidently and feel more reassured.

Saturday 21st June

It's 'here and now' that matters

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Uranus from 21st to 22nd June 2025. Exact 22nd June

Grass often appears greener on the other side of fences. Much often appears preferable in another place – or time! Is there something you wish you could turn the clock back now to do differently than you did way back when? In the same way it is unhelpful to be pondering the past, and what you could have done differently, it is equally unhelpful to be in too much of a rush to alter the future.

It is what's happening here, and now that needs your attention and deserves to be enjoyed and celebrated, despite how a situation may appear.

You're on the brink of a valuable and helpful discovery where your relationship with a certain person is concerned. Let what's unfolding continue to do so in the knowledge that you will soon have something to be very glad of.

Also on Saturday

A way with words

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Moon from 21st to 23rd June 2025. Exact 22nd June

When can you last recall words flowing freely to the point where you surprised yourself with how easily you said them? When did you last Speak from your heart and reveal effortlessly what you felt? You should find making your point or conveying your feelings, at least with words, considerably easier now.

If there's something you've wanted to say to a special person in your world, then if you're willing to make an effort to do so now, you could find your words and emotions flow delightfully. It will probably be the genuine sensitivity that underpins them that touches someone's heart.

Also on Saturday

A valuable discovery

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Saturn from 21st to 23rd June 2025. Exact 23rd June

You hopefully feel much more positive now than you have recently. If so, then that's good news and helpful because a certain 'iron' needs to be struck while it is 'hot', as the old saying goes.

There is something you need to learn about yourself and, by doing so and learning something valuable, you will be in an excellent position to make progress or bring a yearned-for improvement to a special connection.

Prepare to see evidence of how loved and respected you are in the eyes of others and one person in particular. It's time to address something you've chosen to ignore. Once you take a brave step forward, something between you and a special person will, in many ways, become noticeably easier and sweeter.

Also on Saturday

Call off the quest for perfection

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Venus from 21st to 23rd June 2025. Exact 23rd June

We know nobody's perfect. We also know nothing in life is perfect, either. Even that which appears perfect has imperfections if we're prepared to find them. But why would we want to find that which isn't perfect within something that appears perfect? With that in mind, what levels of perfection are you expecting within your personal world now? Of course, your relationships with certain others will never be perfect.

That's what makes them so fascinating and intriguing. Things might not be as smooth and comfortable as you'd like them to be but the drama you sense looming on the horizon is unlikely to be anywhere near as tense, important or threatening as it appears, either.

All you need to do now to bring about a near-perfect result in your relationship world is refrain from worrying or focusing too intently on finding perfection where 'near perfection' will suffice!

Monday 23th June

Bring it out into the open

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Pluto from 23rd to 26th June 2025. Exact 25th June

People talk about skeletons residing in closets. They speak of issues being swept under carpets. There are always issues we prefer to keep hidden, but we know, in our hearts, when certain issues deserve to see the light of day. We owe it to ourselves and those closest to us to allow what needs to be brought out into the open to no longer be hidden under a veil of secrecy.

In your personal world, your attention is being drawn to a fact that must be faced. You can ignore it for a little while longer but be assured that, very soon, you will have to give it attention. When this happens, it will be good news.

Facing what needs to be faced will expose what has been kept secret for too long and cease to cause you to feel as if you're obliged to pretend you're comfortable in a situation that makes you feel otherwise. It's time to pursue an opportunity that you simply haven't felt was viable and, by finally doing so, you will achieve what or whom you truly desire - and deserve!

Tuesday 24th June

Consider your options

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Jupiter from 24th to 26th June 2025. Exact 25th June

When in restaurants, some people don't bother to read menus. They know what they want, possibly because they've had it before and what satisfied them previously is likely to do so again. You're now presented with an opportunity to alter an aspect of your relationship with a certain person. Before you can do so, you need to see what the celestial menu includes.

If you're willing to look beyond the obvious, then you'll see how it is possible to put in place a plan that can change more than what you believe is worthy of your attention. You have options, and that's what's being made clear – or clearer – now.

Before you take action that you're being encouraged to take, take time to review all of the options on the menu because you're bound to see something you like that you probably hadn't considered!

Wednesday 25th June

Sharing has its benefits

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Sun from 25th to 27th June 2025. Exact 26th June

When we share anything, we involve others. What was uniquely ours can sometimes become someone else's, simply through our act of making it available to them. However, a need exists now for you to share something in your world and allow someone to benefit in some way from your doing so.

Rather than nurture resentment, look for the benefits that exist from someone else involving themselves with what you're making available to them. It seems that there are benefits to you although you might have to look a bit harder to see them.

As long as you remain firm, fair and committed to a plan, then there's no reason why someone else can't play a part in helping to make it happen.

Thursday 26th June

Face what needs to be faced

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Mercury from 26th to 28th June 2025. Exact 28th June

Truth, we are told, tends to 'stare us in the face.' We know it does this and sometimes choose to ignore it or pretend we can't see what it's doing. In your relationship world now, there is something truthful that you shouldn't be ignoring.

It requires you to face it – and to know whether it is wise to walk away from a source of antagonism. Facing a certain fact needn't be confrontational because the fact isn't likely to be as 'big' as you or someone else insists it is.

Face what needs to be faced and accept it. Once done, you'll be in a much better place to decide where you go from there.

Friday 27th June

Balancing practicality with magic

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Neptune from 27th to 29th June 2025. Exact 28th June

Each of us is blessed with imagination and creativity. Both are hindered only by doubt and how we refrain from developing our talents and imaginations for reasons we create ourselves. Sometimes, this happens because we prefer to focus on what appears logical and practical. We believe both to be more sensible and that focusing on both will always provide 'the right answer.'

In your personal world now, there exists a need to create a balance between applying imagination and sensibility to a particular issue. Your head is conveying one message, yet your heart has a different agenda.

It's important to see a situation involving someone else by removing rose-tinted glasses, yet there also needs to be preparedness on your part to spot the magic that exists within a relationship. Be creative, be imaginative but keep both feet on the ground while doing so. That way, you will be able to identify a practical solution that retains all that is special between you and you-know-who.

Also on Friday

The power of imagination

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Uranus from 27th to 29th June 2025. Exact 28th June

What do we mean we say someone is 'imaginative' or 'creative'? We tend to associate such words with possessing artistic or musical abilities, yet there are many people who possess no writing, artistic or designing abilities who are blessed with potent imaginations.

Sometimes, to make progress when we feel we're struggling, we have no option other than to apply some creative thinking and, in your personal world now, that's precisely what you're being encouraged to do.

Through adopting an open mind and being willing to apply imagination, you're extremely well placed to set your personal, emotional or romantic life on a firmer, more meaningful - and hopefully less stressful – footing. To achieve this, you need to take a brave step into the unknown and, by applying imagination and creativity you're blessed with now, can achieve wonderful and heart-warming success.

Saturday 28th June

Listen to your heart

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Moon from 28th to 30th June 2025. Exact 29th June

Apparently, each of us possesses powers of extrasensory perception, known otherwise as ESP. Interestingly, each of us can use the powers of our intuition to see into the future. Whether it's ESP or intuition we've developed the use of, all we're ever given are glimpses into what might happen or could potentially unfold.

Similarly, in your personal world now, you're starting to get a strong inkling into what's coming next in your life. Let this motivate, inspire and guide you but don't turn it into a fixed expectation.

While you're undoubtedly becoming more psychic as well as more creative, you need to be sure that you are tuning in to your inner-voice of wisdom and not your inner-voice of fear. Your heart is in the future, tending to the best interests of the people you care about and it's beckoning to you to follow it now.

Also on Saturday

Look closely to see what's good

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Saturn from 28th June 2025 to 1st July 2025. Exact 30th June

Imagine how dull life would be if we didn't have to do various things we didn't want to do. Where would the thrill of overcoming a challenge be? Where would we draw inspiration to seek new and exciting challenges that await us?

We can postpone some tasks or obligations that don't exactly excite or inspire us but regardless of what bores or daunts us; we can either endure discomfort surrounding what we have to do or find a way to see it as exciting - or even learn to love - whatever it is we dislike. In your personal world now, you might not be able to change an undesirable situation, but you can change your attitude toward it.

If you're willing to look closely at what is good in a situation you're inclined to believe is more tedious or uninspiring, then you will soon see it from a much more positive perspective.

Also on Saturday

No shrinking violets

Transiting Sun Trines your natal MidHeaven from 28th June 2025 to 1st July 2025. Exact 30th June

A little bit of praise, we know, can go a long way. Praise, when we know we deserve it, can do much to boost our confidence levels and encourage us to think more about what else we might be capable of.

In an area of your personal world now, you're well placed to receive praise and recognition, and this can only spur you on to want to achieve more.

If you're willing to back up your words with action, then some form of personal success is assured. You probably don't have to force issues and could be surprised at how accepted you and what you're proposing or suggesting are.

This is a time to make clear to certain others - or one person in particular - what you truly want. Don't be a shrinking violet. Aim high, and you'll be delighted with responses you receive.

Forecast for July 2025

Monday 30th June

Leave brute force out of it

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal MidHeaven from 30th June 2025 to 4th July 2025. Exact 2nd July

Sledgehammers are effective when we want to crack a walnut. We know though that there are less extreme methods of performing this task and you could be inclined to apply more force than is needed in an area of your world now.

Where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, sensitivity and tact are essential. You can achieve much more by applying both instead of applying brute force or any form of aggression.

Bringing the change or improvement you want requires you to be sensitive and prepared to listen. Not only will your esteem be raised in the eyes of someone special by doing so but you will stand a much greater chance of gaining something you want or need.

Wednesday 2nd July

Confidence is key

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 2nd to 4th July 2025. Exact 3rd July

We know how attractive confident people can be. We know how attractive we feel when people are appreciative of us and our abilities. In your relationship world now, you're about to experience a much-needed boost to your confidence, and this has strong implications regarding what you can make happen that you truly want to make happen.

Guard against a perceived need to use extreme measures to achieve this, though. What you're experiencing now is the result of having pushed your luck in the past. You don't need to find a big, 'new' solution. All you need to do is channel confidence into allowing an existing solution to give itself a chance to work – and it will!

Thursday 3rd July

The secret to happiness isn't so elusive

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Sun from 3rd to 5th July 2025. Exact 4th July

Is there a recipe for happiness? Do we need to stick to a rigid plan to be happy? In some ways, we do, but when we become too rigid to something that should be spontaneous, we lose the potential for happiness as well as some of the magic needed to create it.

In your personal world now, you have much support available to you to attain what so many people spend lifetimes trying to find or manifest – happiness!

You have a rare opportunity to experience a rise in your status in more than one person's eyes, but it is one person in particular who looks set to see you in a much different and positive way. That, in turn, will relieve pressure in a relationship where you've long wanted to experience it.

Friday 4th July

There's nothing like a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Mercury from 4th to 7th July 2025. Exact 6th July

Sometimes, we experience things called 'Eureka Moments.' We can feel relieved or amazed when we make a vital discovery or something that has been problematic finally 'clicks' into place.

In your personal world now, such a discovery awaits you. You're about to be blessed with ingenuity. There's no need for you to work harder or smarter. Whatever plans or ideas come to light will be simple, obvious and effective.

Where your relationships are concerned, you're about to see how using your imagination will allow you to gain valuable insight into a problem and how you can then explore new ground. This is a time to believe in magic. Let a wonderful discovery reveal itself now.

Thursday 10th July

Don't succumb to 'que sera sera'

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Pluto from 10th to 13th July 2025. Exact 12th July

Are you in control of a particular outcome or do you feel as if 'whatever will be, will be'?

Even if it feels as if unseen forces are at work to encourage you toward a particular outcome, and you have no option other than to allow yourself to end up wherever it is you're going to end up, it is essential that you have absolute faith in the fact that you do possess the ability to influence a situation that (understandably) gives the impression of being immovable or inflexible.

In your personal world, it is time to overcome a fear. Once done, you will be superbly placed to take control of whatever has appeared to control you and then turn a daunting situation into one that becomes much more inspiring.

Also on Thursday

Don't sell yourself short

Transiting Venus Squares your natal MidHeaven from 10th to 13th July 2025. Exact 12th July

Relationships are two-way things. We know what we expect from another person, and they usually have a clear idea what they ideally want from us. Given that we know this two-way process must exist, we still struggle to meet others' expectations or their demands.

If, in your personal or relationship world now, you're trying to seek love or approval, then be aware of lengths you ought to go to attain either. You could be at risk of investing more effort than is required and altering unnecessarily how you're seen in the eyes of others.

Don't sell yourself short in the belief that onus is entirely on you to take the initiative where the process should be two-fold.

Saturday 12th July

Calm after the storm

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mars from 12th to 15th July 2025. Exact 14th July

The interesting and helpful thing about most storms is, we have some idea they're coming. We're often given some degree of warning, even if that warning is at short notice.

In your personal world now, a storm is undoubtedly brewing, but it's one that you're very prepared for. You needn't be concerned about its strength or any likelihood of being blown off course.

Expect, once the proverbial skies clear, to see how safer and stronger you are. Where your relationships with certain people or one person, in particular, are concerned, you're about to see reasons why you don't have to be everywhere at once and going to great lengths to please or placate those who demand you should.

The one person who truly deserves effort you're prepared to give to please them is you. Once you return to focusing more on this, much in your world will become plain sailing, once again.

Monday 14th July

Reasons to be hopeful

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Neptune from 14th to 16th July 2025. Exact 15th July

If we're presented with paper money in any currency, provided we're reassured it's genuine then we're willing to accept it's worth what we understand it to be worth. We don't need to see the same value in coins to reassure us. We take at face value what we see on paper.

We sometimes underestimate how important it is to have faith in what we can see, but we know how investing faith in something we can't see isn't always as easy. That's where intuition comes in.

You need to use and trust your intuition now. Above all, be willing to be optimistic and seek the hidden, practical advantage in any development that arises, not matter how daunting it might appear.

Even if you feel you might struggle to do any of the above, then relax. You're about to be given a very good reason to feel more hopeful where you have felt pessimistic of late. From there, the rest will be up to you as long as you're willing to trust what your deepest instincts tell you.

Also on Monday

A turning point, not a backward step

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Uranus from 14th to 17th July 2025. Exact 16th July

There are times when we have no option other than to push a point. We are all capable of accepting or tolerating a situation to a certain point and then it becomes clear that something must 'give.'

Within your personal world now, you could be increasingly aware of how you might have been too quick to reject something - or someone – you previously felt so able to accept. This is causing you to doubt your judgment about a particular matter and possibly believe yourself to be illogical, impractical or inconsistent.

It's important to understand that you have finally reached a turning point in some way regarding an agreement or arrangement. It's also important that you believe this is extremely positive and worth celebrating, not a cause for consolation.

Tuesday 15th July

Taking the initiative

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Moon from 15th to 18th July 2025. Exact 17th July

We learn from a young age that, if we don't 'ask,' we don't 'get.'

It becomes clear that some level of proactivity and possibly even imagination are needed if we're to make something happen. It also becomes clear that, sometimes, we need to remove ourselves from comfort zones, even if doing so makes us feel uncomfortable or have to face one or two difficult facts doing so.

As much as you would prefer not to rock a proverbial boat and simply accept rather than question a situation now, if you do not already see evidence of a need to take the initiative and bring change where it is needed, then you will do, soon enough.

Turning the other cheek, avoiding confrontation wherever possible or doing anything for a quiet and easy life are admirable traits, but they're not always practical. It's time to summon courage and take a brave step forward where a certain situation or individual is concerned. Where a relaxed attitude has been helpful so far, the time has come to put your foot down and send a clear message that you can choose to take the initiative when you know you must.

Also on Tuesday

From chaos stability will come

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Saturn from 15th to 18th July 2025. Exact 17th July

Some people thrive on chaos. It spurs them on to make impressive achievements. Other people avoid chaos wherever possible. They know they get the best results from operating in structured and predictable environments.

In your personal world, you would much prefer the latter. You want something to be more efficient, stable and structured but cannot help but be painfully aware of all that seems chaotic or unpredictable.

Expect soon, to enjoy a more stable and less volatile situation. Until then, don't overlook or underestimate the progress you are making in amongst the unignorable chaos!

Friday 18th July

Take notice of what's begging to be noticed

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Venus from 18th to 21st July 2025. Exact 20th July

Would you like to experience a breakthrough? Does the thought of being presented with a chance to instigate a new and very different plan in your personal world hold any appeal? As much as you might be inclined to answer 'yes' to both questions, you could (understandably) have reservations about what will change or if a breakthrough or chance to bring about a much-needed change will bring what you truly desire.

You're in an exceptional position now to experience both. For this to happen, you need only heed the idea that is begging you to take notice of it. If you are willing to see how much potential is on offer from seizing an opportunity now, then something truly heart-warming can make its way to you.

Saturday 19th July

Some things cannot and will not be hurried

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Jupiter from 19th to 22nd July 2025. Exact 21st July

It doesn't matter how much we shout at a tiny chute or seedling emerging from the ground, demanding it hurries up and grows. It has its own plan and fully intends to do what it wants and needs to do in its own time and way.

In your personal world now, what is it that you wish would 'hurry up' or manifest in ways that perhaps suit you only? Ask yourself why you feel so impatient or are possibly lacking in confidence.

You're better prepared for what's unfolding in an area of your personal world than you perhaps believe yourself to be. Refuse to doubt yourself, trust your judgment and allow your inner confidence to shine. You've every reason now to trust what you've learned from previous experience and not succumb to a perceived need that you are in need of assistance or guidance.

Let what's happening now continue to progress, and you'll soon see how ideal it is for you.

Also on Saturday

Assessing the situation

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Pluto from 19th to 23rd July 2025. Exact 21st July

Can you feel the pressure mounting? You appear to be experiencing pressure to take action, commit or undertake an obligation in some way now but the chances are high that you do not see the necessary bigger picture yet.

It's for that reason you ought to reserve the right to put the proverbial brakes on before committing in any way. Before you invest valuable time and energy where a certain relationship is concerned, stand back and take stock of what doing so might achieve.

There's a difference between taking the initiative based on careful thought and simply succumbing to pressure from someone else to do so. It's the latter you need to be 'live' to now.

Sunday 20th July

Let it go

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Sun from 20th to 23rd July 2025. Exact 22nd July

When we try to live up to an unrealistic expectation, it doesn't take long before we find ourselves weary of doing so. If you're feeling restless now, then it's likely you're carrying a burden that you need to drop.

Your determination to continue carrying or shouldering this burden could stem from your belief that a certain person will be disappointed or let down if you don't behave or respond in certain ways.

In an area of your personal world, the time has come to explain to you-know-who what it is you've had enough of. You could even find that someone hanging on to an existing or outdated arrangement of belief is only doing so because they believe it's what you expect from them.

It is possible to rewrite rules and redefine arrangements. Are we talking about a lengthy, time-consuming process requiring you to summon patience, unlike anything you've had to muster before? Not at all. In the same way Dorothy unknowingly had the power to return home from Oz anytime she chose to, you too can bring about change you long to see whenever you choose to.

You have had enough of a silly drama or ongoing battle. As soon as you let something end, you will discover that it resolves itself with little intervention from you, allowing you to get on with something far more productive and enjoyable.

Also on Sunday

Keep impatience at bay

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Ascendant from 20th to 24th July 2025. Exact 22nd July

Tension could be rife. Competition and conflict could become issues if they aren't already. If you're finding your relationship with a certain person to be strained, then there is much you can do to improve the situation, and top of the list involves keeping impatience at bay.

Letting impatience get involved could be like pouring gasoline on any flames of resentment now, and this is likely to have much to do without thinking through properly certain responses or actions. If you can't say or do something nice now, then distance yourself until you can.

Monday 21st July

Pushing obsession aside

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Pluto from 21st to 23rd July 2025. Exact 22nd July

Something is fascinating you. Whatever it is, appears to matter a great deal to you. Why does it matter? The answer to that question has much to do with how much emphasis you're putting on it – and a seemingly strong desire you have to give it so much attention. In your personal world now, you're being pushed in a very distinct direction and to make a decision.

You're encouraged strongly to make a choice and, to do this, it's important you accept what or whom might have become an obsession and why you need to be more objective. To make progress, you need to curb a tendency to think of nothing else than the one issue or person that occupies so much of your thinking time.

This is a time to gain perspective and make decisions based on fact or at least what feels truly right and sensible and not be bullied into following a path of least resistance simply because it appears an easier or most prominent option.

Also on Monday

Beauty is more than skin deep

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Ascendant from 21st to 23rd July 2025. Exact 22nd July

Is beauty only 'skin deep'? We know how beautiful some people are on the inside despite not possessing physical qualities that magazines and websites adorned with airbrushed models glorify constantly. How attractive do you feel now and are you truly aware of how attractive you are to certain others?

Your physical attractiveness is powerful now but pales in comparison to levels of inner beauty you possess. Beauty and attractiveness, whether they be inner or external, aren't always viewable with the eye. You have an exceptional opportunity now to attract others through your love of beauty, harmony and having such a friendly and affectionate attitude toward those around you.

Use all that you're being blessed with now where such attractive qualities are concerned, and you cannot fail to become closer to at least one admirer keen to become closer to you!

Stop trying to do the impossible

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Mercury from 22nd to 25th July 2025. Exact 24th July

There's an old saying that goes, 'never try to teach a pig to sing, it only wastes your time and annoys the pig.' There's also another, more common saying that surrounds leading a horse to water and trying to make the animal drink.

As wonderful as it is to be ambitious and undeterred by what appears impossible, we all reach a point where it becomes clear we're wasting valuable time pursuing what cannot be achieved.

That sums up a situation in your personal world now. It's likely to become clear, very soon, that you need to think very carefully about what – or whom - you invest your time and energy toward. The indications are there that both could be put to much better and more effective use elsewhere!

Wednesday 23th July

Embrace long-awaited change

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Mars from 23rd to 25th July 2025. Exact 24th July

It's not often we have to pinch ourselves to believe something is happening to us. It's great when we find ourselves so amazed at what has transpired that we have to do something to confirm we're not dreaming.

You could be tempted to do something similar now as a development appears to be unfolding that you've wanted to see happen for a long time. A new phase of your life is about to begin, and you have an exceptional opportunity to 'break new ground' where your personal world is concerned.

Where certain relationships are concerned, there are rules that can be rewritten and horizons expanded. All that is required from you is confidence mixed with a tiny amount of courage. Be brave and accepting of the long-awaited change unfolding now. Above all, believe it is yours for the taking.

Thursday 24th July

Stepping up to the plate

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Uranus from 24th to 26th July 2025. Exact 25th July

Sometimes, we feel a need to instigate change for the sake of instigating change. Other times, we do this to send a clear message to certain people that we are in control of ourselves or situations when we believe perception exists otherwise. In your personal world now, there exists a need to create a 'mini-revolution.'

In some way, you have been restricted and held back for too long, and you're very aware of what has become unacceptable within a situation or arrangement. You're being granted an ability to express yourself now and while the urge to rebel is likely intensifying, so too is a perceived need to remove yourself entirely from an undesirable scenario.

Soon, what doesn't make sense will make sense. For now, trust how you're being challenged and all that appears awkward is helping you to re-evaluate everything. Once done, you will bring about the very change you've long wanted to see happen.

Friday 25th July

A boundary needs pushing

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Saturn from 25th to 27th July 2025. Exact 26th July

In what way - or ways - might you be feeling trapped or restricted now? Life always provides rules and restrictions, and we understandably opt to reject many in principle yet, in practice, we know we must adhere to or obey them. Sometimes though, it becomes necessary to push a boundary or restriction, and in your personal world now, that's precisely what you're being encouraged to do.

It's time to assess what you believe to be impossible or immovable and see how far you can exceed a particular expectation. It's not necessarily a case of focusing on what's missing in your relationship world but looking closely at what you do have available to you and how, through effort, imagination and a healthy dose of courage, you can improve significantly what you do have.

It's time to accept what - or who - you truly want and remove the idea of failure from any equation surrounding getting it or them. Be brave and willing to push your luck.

Also on Friday

Creating something special together

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Neptune from 25th to 29th July 2025. Exact 27th July

One interesting fact about talented people is, they are rarely talented at only one thing. Someone who is creative in an artistic sense can often possess skill or talents across a wide range of things artistic. When two creative people 'click', they often do so superbly.

Whether or not you believe yourself to be blessed with artistic or creative abilities, you have a fantastic opportunity begin or strengthen a relationship by focusing on what can be 'created' together. Stimulation and excitement is on offer now with someone who wants to create with you.

Look closely at who might fit that bill and you probably won't have to look as hard as you think you might.

Also on Friday

Ringing the changes

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Uranus from 25th to 29th July 2025. Exact 28th July

What is that you're holding? It appears to be a tether that you've reached the end of! We're all aware of that popular saying and, in your world now, a need exists for you to assess where you go from here regarding your relationship with a particular person.

The need to introduce change stems from your belief that an arrangement cannot continue as it has done and therefore needs to alter. You're being encouraged to introduce a change to a tired or tedious situation and doing so will soon bring a fresh start and fresh perspective.

Sunday 27th July

Desire for excitement

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Moon from 27th to 31st July 2025. Exact 29th July

What is stirring within you now? Might it be a desire for excitement? Are you aware of powerful or impulsive feelings trying to manifest from within? If the answer is 'yes,' then allow them to do so.

This is a time of powerful attraction and a need to address powerful urges. With either or both also comes a need to invest considerable energy. Allow a special connection to be improved or consolidated by what's creating intense feelings but make sure you balance assertiveness or impulsiveness with sensitivity.

Monday 28th July

Fixing it properly

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Saturn from 28th to 31st July 2025. Exact 30th July

Repair manuals are supposed to be helpful with identifying problems and offering solutions. However, before a correct solution can be found, the problem needs to be properly identified first.

The swiftest and most effective way to fix something is to understand what caused the need to fix it in the first place. In your emotional world now, there exists a need to 'fix' something in a relationship sense.

Avoid the need to start again in any way because you could end up making unnecessary work for yourself. Look closely what the issue is, be honest about how it came about and trust your instincts to reveal the most effective way to put it right. Repairing or improving any aspect of your emotional world or one special connection can be done more easily and effectively than you might believe.

Forecast for August 2025

Sunday 3rd August

Keeping the adrenaline surge in check

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 3rd to 7th August 2025. Exact 5th August

Excitement, we know, is something we often want more of, especially if we believe it is lacking in an area of our world we wish contained more of the stuff that adrenaline surges are made of.

You are motivated by a need to boost excitement levels in some way and if this involves a partner or potential paramour, then be aware of how heavy-handed your keenness to do so may come across. Give the object of your affections time to come to terms with and prepare for what you're expecting of them. Being forthright and confident can be very sexy.

Being inflexible or aggressive isn't. That's a distinction you might need to make to form, strengthen or improve one special connection now.

Monday 4th August

Giving it your all

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Sun from 4th to 8th August 2025. Exact 7th August

We're told from a young age that little comes to us in life without effort. It doesn't take us long to discover this for ourselves, either. If we knew that our efforts would always result in us getting what we wanted, we'd become bored with doing so.

Sometimes, we need a challenge to make a result worthier of attaining. You're able to apply plenty of focus on achieving a particular result where close connection is concerned now. Trust that the effort required to bring about a certain change or improvement is unlikely to be misplaced. You can make something special, very worthwhile and very memorable happen now.

Wednesday 6th August

Bringer of harmony

Transiting Venus Trines your natal MidHeaven from 6th to 8th August 2025. Exact 7th August

Many people believe attack to be the best strategy to adopt when defending themselves. With some people, we can see their barriers appearing like rolling metallic doors, and when these become evident, they often encourage or prolong further confrontation.

You, however, are superbly placed to diffuse a tense situation and replace tension with friendliness and warmth. You needn't invest considerable effort with this. Simply be yourself, and it's possible you can create harmony effortlessly.

Your personal world can definitely be affected and influenced positively through a love of beauty and desire for peace and, through being instrumental in building bridges or assisting with the extension of olive branches, you can bring about a positive change in your romantic or personal world.

Friday 8th August

Is it worth the effort?

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Venus from 8th to 10th August 2025. Exact 9th August

Are you aware of a demand made on your heart or even your bank balance? Someone likely wants more time, attention or resources than you're likely able to spare.

This could be resulting in a perceived need on your part to placate them but don't succumb to the belief that it's fair to be expected to do the impossible.

If you're experiencing stress or tension with your relationship with a certain person, then consider if you're actually secretly enjoying the exhausting exchange or are possibly being forced in some way to have it.

If it's the former, then stop responding. This might put you in a temporary advantage, but perhaps that's all you need to take stock of where you're going and what or whom you truly want.

If it's the latter, then do the above! It's wonderful to want something or someone so badly but at what price? It's time to decide if all you have to go through and tolerate to get it or them really is worth the effort.

Also on Friday

Let it all out

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Mercury from 8th to 11th August 2025. Exact 10th August

Sometimes, our brains work quicker than our mouths. We struggle to process and convey vast information that wants to go from our heads to our mouths.

There appears to be much you want to say or convey now, and it's necessary to assess and make sense of it all yourself before doing so. Don't struggle with making a point or be concerned about whether you're saying the 'right thing.'

Focus only on what you know needs to be said and let it come out in the way it chooses to. All that matters now is that a certain point is made and no longer bottled up. This level of openness could be precisely what a special connection needs to improve or evolve.

Monday 11th August

Turning heads

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 11th to 14th August 2025. Exact 13th August

Are you a good storyteller? Have you considered hiring yourself out to parties that need an injection of life given to them? If you're not already aware of how engaging and attractive your personality is becoming, then you will do shortly.

There is no doubt that confident people can be attractive in the eyes of many others, but you're blessed with confidence mixed with very strong powers of attraction in other ways, and these could include outgoingness and an enviable sense of light-heartedness.

There could even be a hint of competitiveness in your actions that can only add to your powers of attraction. Simply be yourself now and allow the real you to shine confidently within social circles. You're turning heads for all of the right reasons!

Wednesday 13th August

Be flexible and spontaneous

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mars from 13th to 15th August 2025. Exact 14th August

What is it 'they' say about best-laid plans? Of course, to achieve anything, we need a plan of some sort but sometimes, the benefits of spontaneity can be overlooked.

When we discover a plan goes awry or an unforeseen obstacle gets presented in our path, then our first reaction often involves frustration. In your personal world now, it is important you're willing to be adaptable. It's essential you don't view a change to an arrangement or situation you believed to be unchangeable as a setback or potential problem. See it instead as a gift.

An important romantic or relationship goal is within reach. Have faith in the fact that you're helped to achieve it, but the journey might have one or two pit stops along the way that you hadn't - or couldn't have - accounted for. The more willing you are to be spontaneous and flexible, the more you'll enjoy this particular ride – and the more progress you'll make.

Thursday 14th August

Ignore drama and exaggeration

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Neptune from 14th to 17th August 2025. Exact 16th August

To prove a point, we sometimes feel the need to go to great lengths. We believe it necessary to inject some drama or exaggeration to illustrate how important a particular issue or belief is to us.

Drama and exaggeration do little to convince others of our belief levels. Often, they'd prefer we were less dramatic or prone to exaggeration!

That's why, in your personal world now, you need to refrain from going 'over the top' regarding making a particular point. If you can separate fact from the fantasy that is being nurtured now, then you can make your point with clarity and not be at risk of being seen as unrealistic or having no true grasp of what you ought to be more certain of.

The same applies to a fearful fantasy, should you be nurturing of those instead. Much is being distorted now and the more you can be realistic and pragmatic, the less stress you'll encourage to come your way.

Friday 15th August

The key to happiness is yours

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Pluto from 15th to 18th August 2025. Exact 17th August

It's both easy and natural for us to want what we haven't got. When we become aware of an absence, we start to identify ways in which we might be happier if only we had what is missing. The other side of the proverbial coin involves wishing something was removed from our world, believing life would be simpler and happier without it.

In your personal world now, you are being granted an exceptional opportunity to be happy. To seize and benefit from this opportunity, all you need to do is stop focusing on what might go wrong in a certain situation.

Avoid succumbing to a tendency to be overly cautious or pessimistic. If you are willing to relax and believe wholeheartedly that an uncertain situation can and will improve, then you can expect to be surprised at how much quicker happiness starts to permeate your world.

Also on Friday

Stepping back is best

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Moon from 15th to 18th August 2025. Exact 17th August

We are all, in one way or another, influenced strongly by our companions, colleagues and family members. However, we tend not to consider how influenced we are by what we believe they want from us as opposed to what they really want from us.

The boundaries of your relationship with one person - or possibly a group of people - are being redefined now. This could be causing you to fear that you're alienating yourself unnecessarily in some way yet, at the same time, it could be apparent that you involve yourself in dramas or other peoples' situations in ways you shouldn't be!

The redefining of boundaries is going to involve you to detach yourself in some way from certain others but don't succumb to a belief that the only way to remain connected as things stand presently is to involve yourself with what's happening in their worlds in ways that could justifiably be seen as inappropriate.

A shift is occurring where your relationships with key people are concerned. Step back, let what's changing unfold in its own way and time, and this will benefit you and those you're closest to.

Sunday 17th August

A reward for being brave and sincere

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Mars from 17th to 20th August 2025. Exact 19th August

In your personal world, there is a problem you sorely want to resolve but could be struggling to settle. You're being asked to 'accept the impossible.' You want to give in to an indulgence of some sort yet are very aware of how common sense is dictating that you would be foolish to make any hasty or risky move.

Remember that we live in a world that rewards the brave and the sincere far more than it takes care of the cautious and unimaginative. It is time to take a courageous step towards achieving a dream.

It is time to be strong, proud, daring, ambitious and, above all else, confident. If you can manage all of the above, then various natural processes now unfolding will restore your faith and spur you on to make something wonderful, heart-warming and long lasting happen.

Monday 18th August

Removing limitations

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Neptune from 18th to 21st August 2025. Exact 20th August

Do you feel as if you've taken too much on in some way? Have you taken on too much responsibility, overstretched yourself, embarked upon a plan that you feel you might be unable to finish or embarked on something you feel you might not accomplish?

Sometimes, when we experience too much of a good thing, we forget or ignore our limitations! You are extremely well placed now to put your personal or relationship world on a much stronger footing.

You can bring about change through applying imagination. Be creative. Be imaginative. Be yourself and you can transform something that has been troublesome into something you will welcome and embrace.

Tuesday 19th August

Knowledge is power

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Uranus from 19th to 21st August 2025. Exact 20th August

Some peoples' sweet smiles often conceal hidden agendas. We can't always tell who is supportive of us and who has plans to scupper our plans. In your relationship world now, there is strong likelihood that someone has an unconscious agenda of doubt or mistrust.

The good news is, there is little you need to do to encourage what has been hidden into the open. Little effort on your part is required to make right what has been wrong of late.

You're about to be in a stronger and more knowledgeable position through information that will come to light shortly. It might not have you punching the air with joy, but you will be grateful for the fact that you will soon be in a much stronger position to know precisely what you will need to do next.

Also on Tuesday

Powers of attraction

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Moon from 19th to 22nd August 2025. Exact 21st August

Like, we know, attracts like. Positive people tend to be drawn toward other positive people. Might positivity you're experiencing now be playing a part in attracting others toward you – or vice versa? The air of confidence and degree of attractiveness you're exuding now cannot and should not be ignored or underestimated.

But, it's all well and good that you're being seen as such an attractive option but what do you intend to do with the influence now available to you? Use it wisely. Use it effectively. Use it to draw a special person toward you or captivate one person whose attention you've wanted for some time.

You're blessed now with an enviable opportunity to use powers of attraction available to you, and no reason exists why you can't attain something very special, very soon.

Wednesday 20th August

Leave serendipity out of it

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Saturn from 20th to 22nd August 2025. Exact 21st August

Can you afford to be fussy now? Of course, you can. Not only can you afford to be fussy, but it would also be in your best interests to be so. Dare you take a risk though? Ah, that begs a more important question but what matters now is how you view the risk you're taking. Think of it as 'improvising' rather than undertaking a daunting act.

In your personal world now, you have a very particular and specific goal in mind. There is undoubtedly something you yearn to see happen. You're aware that, to achieve this, you're going to have to take a chance in some way. You know that making something wonderful happen between you and someone else will require you to be selective and structured in your approach.

A heart-warming development is on offer provided you ensure the right kind of disciplined preparations are in place first. Take a brave step forward in the knowledge that you're not leaving a result to happen entirely by chance.

Saturday 23th August

Doing 'the right thing'

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Jupiter from 23rd to 25th August 2025. Exact 24th August

A mistake, they say, is only a mistake if we make it a second time. It's easy for 'them' to say that, though. We know how we feel when we make an error of judgment. We are very aware when we fail to do 'the right thing.' How often do we find that what we thought was a mistake is a blessing in disguise?

Until we can see evidence of having done 'the right thing,' we remain unconvinced. That's why, in your personal world now, you need to be more optimistic about that fact that you haven't made an error in any way. It's true that a new development is heading your direction. It's also true that a process you have set in motion is going to cause you to have to reassess certain priorities.

Where you feel powerless, you can expect strength. Where you feel uninspired, you can soon expect to feel inspired. Have faith in the fact that what you've started has begun properly despite possible appearances to the contrary and, through continuing to have faith in the fact that you have done 'the right thing,' you can expect positive progress, very soon.

Sunday 24th August

Keeping desperation at bay

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Sun from 24th to 26th August 2025. Exact 25th August

Desperate people tend to do desperate things. Why, if a solution is being provided to a problem, do we discover things get worse before they get better? Perhaps, this has much to do with an inappropriate or unhelpful solution being applied to a problem that only ends up shifting a problem elsewhere instead of resolving it not being much of a solution at all.

In your personal world, you are likely feeling a strong urge to do something very indulgent. You are so focused on what or whom you want that you're inclined to go about attaining it or them in any way possible, regardless of how ridiculous some options might be. It's time to stop working so hard to attain happiness.

It's time to appreciate what you have and what you do have available to you. Your options might be limited, but that's not a bad thing. All you need to do is focus on pursuing the one option that your heart tells you makes the most sense.

Monday 25th August

What's truly valuable…

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Venus from 25th to 26th August 2025. Exact 26th August

We know how money can facilitate the pursuit of many opportunities. We know how much so much in our world is 'worth.' Let's push aside material 'worth' though and look at something much more valuable.

What do you believe yourself to be worth? If you're not already seeing how much you matter to a certain person or others, then coming events will do much to reassure you. On top of that, you're about to be reminded of how much you matter to yourself.

You are priceless, and you are precious. If you need reminding of that too, then a reminder is coming.

Also on Monday

Distancing yourself

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Mercury from 25th to 27th August 2025. Exact 27th August

Are you able to feel the tug being made in your heart? It appears someone or something wants all you're able to give plus a little more besides. You're also likely very aware of how finite what you're able to supply actually is, and that's why the challenge facing you in your personal world surrounds defining, explaining and sticking to the limit that exists.

You can do this without fear or shame. You can also achieve this through backing away from situations you know you don't need to involve yourself with. Sidestep any debate, discussion or disagreement that you can afford to remove yourself from.

Distancing yourself will ensure that no accusation can be made your direction about being manipulative or trying to engineer situations to your advantage. Relax, and you will soon see how whatever is concerning you now will sort itself out in a way that truly pleases and heartens you.

Wednesday 27th August

If you want agreement, then ask for it

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 27th to 28th August 2025. Exact 28th August

If one person takes on board or has faith in what we're telling them, then that bodes well for others doing similarly. If, in a group situation, we find that something we're suggesting or proposing is met with receptiveness and approval, then there's clearly relevance to what we're saying.

You can make tangible progress or improve a love connection in some way by conveying to someone in your world something you feel is important and must be said. If you've had reservations about speaking up previously for any reason, then abandon them now. You have a point to make, can make it confidently and expect it to be met with agreement if make your point or pose your question confidently. It might be your confidence or enthusiasm that wins them over.

Thursday 28th August

Don't fear the worst

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mars from 28th to 29th August 2025. Exact 29th August

We tend to regret what we don't do in life. Even when we're in the throes of worry or confusion about a decision we've made, rarely do we focus our concern on the decision itself.

It is what we fear the result will be or our belief that we've made a wrong choice that causes the most problems. Where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, you have taken action in some way and could feel a mistake has been made.

It's time for you to summon self-discipline, discrimination, and determination combined with a healthy dose of faith in the fact that what you have instigated can only be beneficial.

Also on Thursday

Stick with the plan and keep with the program

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Neptune from 28th to 30th August 2025. Exact 29th August

If something's too good to be true, then we usually have at least one very good reason to doubt it. When something becomes available to us instantly or with little or no effort on our part, delight can become replaced with suspicion. Be wary now of such a situation presenting itself to you now and this probably surrounds a certain person in your world being economical with the truth.

Something in your world doesn't need 'fixing' in the way you're led to believe, and neither does it need the level of complication that will undoubtedly arise though believing wholeheartedly what you're told. Focus on what you know works, makes you happy and is solid. Don't deviate from a plan just because a seemingly more attractive option is making itself available.

Friday 29th August

Posing questions in measured doses

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Moon from 29th to 31st August 2025. Exact 30th August

If you're aware of a distinct feeling of confusion, then welcome it. Uncertainty you feel is likely to encourage you to question one or two areas or aspects of your emotional world that could do with being questioned. Be careful though, of how much time and effort you give toward questioning whatever – or whoever – it is.

You could be at risk of making a bigger issue out of something than is justified. To you, an issue is big. To someone else, it's likely to be less important, so by all means, ask questions to get to the bottom of a certain matter, but be aware of when might be a good time to stop.

Saturday 30th August

Seek a win/win situation

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal MidHeaven from 30th August 2025 to 1st September 2025. Exact 31st August

Opinions are like various parts of our anatomy. Everyone has one.

How vehemently we cling to opinions depends much on our personalities but, in an area of your personal world now, you're likely to see how vehemently a certain person is willing to cling to one of theirs - and they, in turn, could see how much belief you have in one of yours!

A clash is likely between you and a certain person. Clashes are natural and sometimes necessary. They help us to reach agreements we might not have reached otherwise but flexibility and compromise are essential if progress is to be made between you and another.

Forecast for September 2025

Monday 1st September

Passion running high

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Venus from 1st to 5th September 2025. Exact 3rd September

Beauty, we are told, is skin deep. We also understand beauty is in the eye of beholders. If any relationship is to be embarked upon, it helps but if some level of attraction exists between two people!

In a very intriguing and exciting way, you have a fantastic opportunity to allow yourself to be swept off your feet by succumbing to strong desires and passions. Don't underestimate your attraction levels now – or, if you're single, how easily you might find yourself attracted to someone a potential flame. However, much of what attracts you is external. The real beauty waiting to be discovered about a certain person is contained inside. Whether single or attached, it's that discovery that will be powerfully alluring.

Friday 5th September

Imagination can remove obstacles

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal MidHeaven from 5th to 7th September 2025. Exact 6th September

Nowadays, it can be more difficult than it used to be to speak with individuals in companies. Many have voice mail or answer machines they use to screen calls.

There seems to be a noticeable increase in gatekeeper-style secretaries and receptionists who diligently assess each call and interrogate callers about the purpose of their call.

To make progress sometimes, imagination is required to get past such obstacles. So too, is sensitivity and courtesy. To make a point you wish to make, you're going to have to apply imagination. Someone is likely to be receptive to what you're proposing, but they just don't know it yet.

That's why it's your job to convey yourself in a way you'd probably want someone to convey themselves to you.

Saturday 6th September

Leave competition out of it

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Ascendant from 6th to 9th September 2025. Exact 8th September

Any relationship must keep moving forward, and one way to achieve this is to have shared goals. Sometimes though, the pursuit of shared goals becomes competitive and in a relationship context, competitive natures can cause more than one problem.

Where you and someone else are concerned, an opportunity is on offer to pursue something together and learn something valuable in the process. This will be made infinitely more enjoyable if competition is left out of the picture. Enjoy doing something together for the sake of doing something together and not because one or both of you want to be seen to be 'better' at doing something. That will only create tension that delays progress or an improvement where you want to experience one.

Sunday 7th September

Improving what's currently undesirable

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Venus from 7th to 9th September 2025. Exact 9th September

Where do you 'draw the line'? How do you express your dissatisfaction with a particular situation? Inviting those closest to you to offer advice isn't the best idea because they – or possibly one person in particular – could be the cause of your displeasure. You appear to be tolerating something unacceptable, and this probably has much to do with a perceived need to placate someone else in some way.

When we reach the end of our proverbial tether, then that's clear indication of when 'enough is enough.' It's easy to look at your current situation in the belief that having 'something' is better than 'nothing' yet you could be overlooking how easily 'something' could become 'something more.'

The challenge in your personal world now involves turning a fault into something adequate or sufficient. You needn't try to work a miracle. Approach what needs 'fixing' positively and constructively, and you will improve a less than desirable situation.

Monday 8th September

Holding your horses

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Mars from 8th to 12th September 2025. Exact 11th September

Considerable energy and willpower is available to you now, provided you want it. The equivalent of a celestial kick up the backside to take the initiative in ways you may have delayed doing is on offer. Much depends on how you intend to use it and even more depends on whether you believe you need it.

Sometimes, we can come across as a bit heavy handed all of a sudden in the eyes of certain people and should you choose to make use of energy and power available to you, then you might find one or two people are taken aback by your new-found drive and determination.

By all means, make changes or take reins where they need to be taken but remember to be sensitive to the needs of others before doing so.

Wednesday 10th September

Taking the initiative

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Ascendant from 10th to 12th September 2025. Exact 11th September

We know that, when the going gets tough, the tough are known to get going. Some people enjoy rising to particular challenges and being seen to 'prove' themselves. Similarly, there is a challenge you must rise to and demonstrate to a few people how willing you are to prove yourself.

Perhaps, where your personal world is concerned, you've grown used or accustomed to wanting something simply because you feel you deserve it. Now, it is probably becoming clear that to attain what – or whom – you want, you have to demonstrate your keenness or worthiness.

Don't shy from the challenge offered now. You can not only make real and tangible progress with a particular person and possibly surprise yourself and them at the same time.

Also on Wednesday

Allow inner strength to overcome vulnerability

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Pluto from 10th to 13th September 2025. Exact 12th September

Are you feeling particularly sensitive now? Vulnerable? Emotionally volatile? If the answer to any or all of these is 'yes,' then that's good news.

You're about to invest a bit more faith in what your intuition is trying to tell you than you might be used to investing. If you're willing to push aside fear, guilt or any tendency to feel panic stricken or needy, then you'll soon hear, very clearly, what the message is from deep within yourself.

A decision doesn't need weighing up in the extensive ways you might feel inclined to offer it. You know what it is you need to do, but fear and uncertainty could be distorting the message in the same way a de-tuned television or radio is unhelpful.

You are right to expect tender moments and feelings of being unprotected or vulnerable. Make sure guilt, shame, embarrassment or fear play no part in what you're feeling though. Any attention they're given is misplaced, and the inner strength you're gaining now will ensure, very soon, that they play no part in what – and whom – you're now confirming does play an integral role in your future needs.

Taking a brave step

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Pluto from 11th to 13th September 2025. Exact 12th September

A moment of clarity is imminent. So too is a breath-taking transformation. With change imminent, you are understandably feeling some level of apprehension and, if you want to experience less, then it's essential you look closely at what – or whom – you're so anxious to retain control of. A situation in your relationship world needs reassessing and re-evaluating. This process will, undoubtedly, result in a revelation and a less than desirable situation becoming very different in a positive way once this revelation occurs.

This won't happen on its own though. It will require you to take action in a way you've possibly been reluctant to take previously. Don't fear what is unfolding now.

Don't fear a need to ask for help where you need it, either. What's happening is necessary and extremely positive. Once your apprehension and uncertainty clear, you will not need reminding of this.

Faith restoration

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Mars from 11th to 13th September 2025. Exact 13th September

Sometimes, confidence is dented all too easily. We've all experienced a situation where we believe we can take on the world and any problem within it and then discover that all it takes is one unforeseen development to create a sense of fear or disbelief toward what we were so focused on originally. There are also times when we are willing to invest faith in something we cannot see or justify until we experience a similar crisis of faith.

In your personal world now, there is something you believed you were once very sure of. Now, it appears to have reservations about whatever-it-is. The good news is, very soon, your faith and confidence will be restored. The even better news is your faith and confidence look set to be higher and stronger than they were previously.

There is though, something you must do for this change to unfold. This involves bringing about a change in your romantic or emotional world that surrounds being less dutiful or beholden and being willing to inviting more joy into your world. Make that change, and you will soon be feeling rejuvenated and optimistic.

No second chances to make first impressions

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Ascendant from 11th to 14th September 2025. Exact 13th September

Do opposites attract? There is much evidence that they do. However, we know how magnets repel what doesn't suit them. In your personal world now, you need to consider how, through ways in which you're projecting yourself to others - or a particular person - you could be pushing away someone you ought to be closer with.

Consider how you're expressing yourself and to what extent aggression could be playing a part in what you do or say. Consider also how you're projecting yourself regarding your appearance. Be honest with yourself. Does appearance mean less to you than it once did, and might you be seen in a self-defeating way?

How you convey or project yourself now is likely to be opposite to how you'd ideally like to be seen. Don't make it unnecessarily difficult for others to get to know you. Give thought to how you can present yourself more enticingly.

Friday 12th September

Keep it simple

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Ascendant from 12th to 13th September 2025. Exact 13th September

It's amazing how leaving one word out of a sentence can change it dramatically. When we're trying to make a point or convey ideas to others, then doing so successfully relies entirely upon them grasping and fully understanding the point we're making.

We know, from experience, that people don't always understand what we try to tell them despite our efforts to do all we can to ensure they do. If what you're trying to convey to a certain person appears to be hard work, then rethink how you're conveying it. Remove all assumption from the equation.

Start again if you feel you must do so. Take your time, count to ten, let your words emerge confidently and see what changes in a close connection by doing so.

Smelling the coffee

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Neptune from 12th to 15th September 2025. Exact 14th September

The world is and always will be full of insensitive people. That's why it's important now that you separate yourself from such individuals. It's important to gain proper perspective and assess how far to trust one or two individuals and how much to believe what you're being told by them, and by one in particular.

Detaching yourself will also help you to identify certain flaws in a particular person that will help with a decision you need to make. You're not being encouraged to be judgmental.

You're being encouraged to, as the old saying goes, wake up and smell some coffee. To do that, you need to restrain your imagination slightly and view a certain relationship with both honesty and sensitivity. If you can do that, then you'll soon be better placed to identify a way forward.

Saturday 13th September

Reviving a dream

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Neptune from 13th to 15th September 2025. Exact 14th September

Dreams and aspirations never vanish or dissipate completely if we don't achieve them. Sometimes, newer ones take their place. Eventually, we discover that what mattered to us a long time ago remains important and become aware that we ought to give what once mattered our time and attention once again.

Where affairs of the heart or one special relationship are concerned, what or who once mattered greatly to you is becoming a priority again in some way. You have an opportunity to shift your focus to what - or whom – probably never left the realms of your mind and heart. This time, the dream could be more achievable or attainable.

The answer needs to come from the heart

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Uranus from 13th to 15th September 2025. Exact 14th September

Computers will always do as they're told. They can't think for themselves, even if it appears they can. Any decisions they make on our behalf are made according to a program. If 'X' occurs, then the computer knows to implement 'Y.'

With that in mind, consider certain conclusions you're reaching now. Are they being made in such a cold and calculated way? There's nothing wrong with applying logic to what needs sorting now.

However, logic needs to be mixed with what your heart is telling you and therein lies the reason for potential conflict. Your heart needs to play a bigger part in a decision you're making now.

Allow it more room to do so and the balance between what it is saying and what logic is saying will be restored. In your personal life now, that's precisely the balance that you need.

Also on Saturday

Emotional release

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Moon from 13th to 15th September 2025. Exact 15th September

Some people 'say it as they see it.' They cannot resist giving their input or sharing observations which is an admirable trait in some ways but can tend to get others' backs up. As 'right' as these outspoken people are, not everyone shares their keenness to know whatever it is such people feel the need to impart. It's easy though to misinterpret sensitivity for bullishness or arrogance sometimes.

That's why, in your personal world now, it's important that you understand your reasons for releasing a pent-up feeling. The emotional strength surrounding what you've kept concealed until now is likely stronger than you gave it credit for being. All of this would be easier if something in your emotional world 'made sense.'

The fact it doesn't probably has something to do with how emotionally you're choosing to react toward it. What's happening now is powerful and necessary. It's also providing a helpful step toward emotional stability you've wanted for some time.

Sunday 14th September

Communication is key

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Moon from 14th to 15th September 2025. Exact 15th September

We're all blessed with instincts. We use them from time to time and, when we do, find that they provide us with interesting and, at times, valuable insight. If you're willing to use yours now, then you stand to gain insight into a situation that you may feel you're kidding yourself about.

You're not deceiving yourself, and your assessment of a situation and someone's involvement with it (or their motivation) is likely to be accurate. You and a certain person need to have an exchange of sorts, and this is likely to involve a tense and possibly emotional conversation.

Even if verbal dialogue isn't forthcoming, there is much you're able to learn now through subtle signs and signals. Provided you're willing to be open and share thoughts and feelings tactfully and sensitively, then a partner is likely to do the same. Collaborating in this way is essential with bringing a helpful and timely improvement.

The key to the future is held in the past

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Saturn from 14th to 16th September 2025. Exact 15th September

There's no future in archaeology. Archaeologists aren't concerned about the future; it's the past they want to know more about. They accept they can't alter history but are keen to help with influencing the future through what we can all learn from what occurred previously.

There is a curious link between your past, present, and future now. Something from a previous episode of your life plays a key role in what is happening presently - and influencing your attitude toward the future.

You're likely feeling under pressure of sorts and could be inclined to be a bit argumentative with a certain individual.

Also, you may even be inclined to be a bit too quick to bend or even break a rule that you have adhered to for a long time, just to see what the result might be or in the hope it accelerates a plan close to your heart.

Don't be impatient. Look closely at how similar what happened previously is to what is happening now – and how you can truly influence the future based on your knowledge of both.

Push aside passion

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Neptune from 14th to 17th September 2025. Exact 16th September

Is there an invisible clock ticking away somewhere that makes you feel you're under unnecessary pressure? Perhaps the clock you're focused so intently on is far from invisible.

Regardless of pressure you might feel obliged to succumb to in an area of your personal world, take a moment to breathe deeply and make an effort to proceed slowly. By giving in to pressure now, you risk compromising your ability to make incisive and accurate judgments. This, in turn, is likely to cause you to prolong a process that needn't be dragged out.

It's fair to say you have strong feelings about a situation or individual. Powerful passions often create some level of confusion. Do your very best to push aside passion for the time being. What's needed is clarity and if you allow it to come, then it will. Once it does, you'll be much better placed to trust the new understanding and act on it wisely, not hastily.

Also on Sunday

See the funny side

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Uranus from 14th to 17th September 2025. Exact 16th September

Comedies, in the film scriptwriting world, are known as 'personal dramas.' That's because what's happening to the main character is hilarious to those watching the film but isn't the least bit funny to the main character. What they're doing, or undertaking is serious, and the attainment of success means much to them.

In your personal world, you're about to find a reason to laugh or at least smile at something within all that seems too serious and challenging.

Steer clear as best you can of others' opinions on a certain matter. Aim to identify truth within a situation. Above all, see what's amusing within the chaos. Despite seemingly impossible situations, ludicrous challenges and ridiculous dramas, there is a reason to smile and your ability to do this will help you to see exactly what you need to do.

Monday 15th September

Prepare for a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Moon from 15th to 18th September 2025. Exact 17th September

Can you remember when you last experienced a 'Eureka Moment'?

We all have these from time to time; sudden moments of clarity that are always wonderful – and often timely – to receive.

In your personal world now, a moment of clarity is about to be experienced by you. Don't succumb to a temptation to assess certain yearnings or needs deeply. Trust that you feel what you feel because, in more than one way, what you feel suits you and you're being steered toward the attainment of a cherished personal goal.

First, you need clarity. Embrace the revelation winging its way to you and, when it arrives, you'll know precisely why it is right and what your next move should be.

Tuesday 16th September

You can't fail to impress now

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 16th to 18th September 2025. Exact 17th September

Experienced magicians can impress others because of countless hours of practicing. The same can be said about musicians. To do something impressive usually takes considerable time to perfect. How frustrating it must be for them when some people overlook how much time and effort has been invested to perfect their talent or skill.

In your relationship world now, you can not only make something wonderful happen but can also impress more than one person with how you do it. You're about to make a decision that alters an unsatisfactory situation beyond recognition. The process though is not as instant as it may appear.

You've had to go through an intense trial and error period, but now that you have perfected, in your mind, a way forward, you cannot fail to impress others - including yourself!

Also on Tuesday

Full attention and concentration required

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Saturn from 16th to 18th September 2025. Exact 17th September

There's no shirking a duty or obligation now. We know when we have to take something seriously that we've been putting off for some time and now is such a time.

Within an area of your personal world, you're about to accomplish something impressive, significant and meaningful despite the fact that you can hardly expect a peaceful, quiet time doing so. There's something you have to do, or somewhere you need to be, and whatever-it-is requires your full attention and concentration.

There is, though, something amusing or ironic within all that's happening. What appears so very serious does have, fortunately, something within it capable of making you smile. You are very able to discover this and succeed admirably with what needs your attention now.

Wednesday 17th September

Give it your all

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Sun from 17th to 18th September 2025. Exact 18th September

Sometimes, we view mistakes as something to be avoided at all costs. We go out of our way to ensure they don't happen because we see them as the ultimate setback. However, we should see mistakes as essential steps in a learning process and stepping stones to progress we yearn to make.

The progress you yearn to make now within your relationship world is important to you. It deserves respect you're keen to give it and also deserves the success you want to achieve. Whether or not you achieve either or both depends entirely on how seriously you want either or both.

Aim at nothing, and you're guaranteed to hit it. Give what matters most to you time, attention and effort, and you stand to be both amazed and delighted by what you achieve.

Thursday 18th September

Embracing the 'feel good factor'

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Mercury from 18th to 19th September 2025. Exact 19th September

What would make you happier? Everyone has a list of sorts that contains what would make us feel more comfortable or at ease with life. Would more money be on your list? What about an improvement in your personal and emotional or romantic life?

It seems that good news is winging its way to you that is bound to bring more than just a smile on your face. To receive it, all you must do is show some effort to embrace it. Where your relationships are concerned, your newly-found 'feel good factor' might be infectious!

All it takes is one tiny spark…

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Jupiter from 18th to 22nd September 2025. Exact 20th September

It takes two to tango. It can sometimes take at least two people to experience confrontation or conflict. You're dealing with a sensitive situation where your relationship with a special individual is concerned, and it's important you don't underestimate how a single spark can create a conflagration now.
The more you can smile, be supportive and sensitive, the more you can avert a tense and unnecessary confrontation that has plenty of potential to be overblown. It's by being seen to be part of the solution rather than adding to the problem that you can strengthen or improve a love connection. All you need to do is find more positive and pleasurable ways of applying the power of that spark!

Saturday 20th September

Remain on the side-lines

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 20th to 22nd September 2025. Exact 21st September

It can be frustrating when we believe ourselves able to see what someone else cannot. A way forward might be crystal clear to us yet, for some reason, someone else simply cannot connect with it.

When this happens, some people feel inclined to take the reins and control of a situation, hoping to guide the person they believe to be misguided or oblivious to the right decision or destination.

Avoid a tendency now to believe you know what's best for others or a certain person in your world. By all means, show understanding, be willing to be supportive and compassionate but consider the fact that some people have their own agendas and are determined to stick with them.

That doesn't make either of you 'wrong' but, as much as you might believe yourself to be best placed to provide guidance or encourage someone to reconsider a belief, you could gain so much more now from stepping back and letting others do what suits them.

If a job's worth doing…

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Sun from 20th to 23rd September 2025. Exact 22nd September

If a job's worth doing, then many of us adhere to the old motto about it being done properly. This usually involves us doing it ourselves. If you feel an urge to take the reins in some way where a relationship matter is concerned, then don't shy from taking the initiative.

A change in a situation is likely to only come about through your efforts. Stick with what you know works best or will produce the most likely desired result. Taking control of a situation doesn't always mean ringing dramatic changes. It might be more appropriate at this time to simply let a situation and certain person know that you are capable of steering both in a particular direction - and intend to do so! That level of reassurance could be what's needed to improve one special connection.

Sunday 21st September

Timing and trust

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Sun from 21st to 23rd September 2025. Exact 22nd September

Making what we believe to be 'the right move' relies on us possessing some degree of skill and timing. What matters now is not whether you have 'the advantage' in some way but whether or not you possess confidence and patience to know when 'the right time' exists to make 'the right move.'

Power and control you have yearned for in an area of your personal world are making their way to you. Before you can receive both properly though, you need to accept what it is you do have at your disposal: an opportunity.

Be prepared to trust in ways you have been unwilling to trust previously. This will help you to identify the opportunity presenting itself and the wonderful possibility that accompanies it.

It will soon be within your abilities to make something seemingly minor into something very significant. When you see evidence of this, then you can expect soon afterward to see a noticeable boost to your confidence and optimism levels.

Tuesday 23th September

Confidence brings support

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Mercury from 23rd to 25th September 2025. Exact 24th September

At what point do we become aware that we've given enough effort to a particular area? This usually coincides with a clear message that comes to us from deep within our brains that we're pleased with a result, for the time being, anyway. It also comes from communication from others that we're doing something right or they understand what it is we set out to achieve.

So, with that in mind, why do you feel so answerable to so many people? Why do these people seem incapable of sharing your view, position or plan at face value? Why isn't something as obvious to others as it is to you?

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to assert yourself and be less conciliatory. In other words, the time has come for you not to give in so easily or be quite as willing to placate certain others – or someone in particular.

If you're willing to boost your confidence levels and invest just a bit more effort to make a point, then you are likely to be both surprised and delighted at how supported you really are.

Also on Tuesday

Leave anger on the doorstep

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Mercury from 23rd to 26th September 2025. Exact 25th September

There's a right way and a wrong way to make a certain point to a certain person now. You're presented with a choice. You can either release pent-up frustration or anger, and part someone's hair with words that aren't particularly well-chosen or you can apply large amounts of a sensitivity and compassion to a difficult or tense conversation.

The former will result in you-know-who becoming understandably and justifiably defensive. The latter will do much to ensure that the point you're keen to make is listened to.

It's by being seen to be part of the solution rather than adding to a problem that you can strengthen or improve a love connection now. Steering a potentially heated exchange into calmer and more pleasurable waters is the first step to doing so.

Thursday 25th September

Give where it feels right

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal MidHeaven from 25th to 27th September 2025. Exact 26th September

Love manifests itself on many levels. There is the love we feel for friends and family members. Then, there is the love we feel toward those we are linked with in various other ways. We often fail to consider that our love levels are self-replenishing. Where so many other resources are available in finite supply, we can always find within our hearts a further quantity when we need it.

With that in mind, in what way or ways is love you're capable of giving being directed now? It appears you have options regarding how best to 'distribute' love you can offer. To make everything simpler, trust your heart to guide you as to where your love supply is best aimed.

Trust that you don't have to be as cautious as you perhaps feel you must be with deciding who is worthy of love you can provide. Give where it feels right, and you will discover, to your delight, how loved you are in return.

Saturday 27th September

Applying ingenuity can bring something magical

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Venus from 27th to 29th September 2025. Exact 28th September

Does the word 'genius' get used more today than at other times throughout history? Think about how fantastic inventions were many years ago that have become accepted and taken for granted today.

Surely, something created by someone else that stands the test of time through acceptance by so many people is worthy of the accolade 'genius'? It is how you are likely to apply ingenuity now that put you in a wonderfully strong position.

It seems that comfort is winging its way to you and most likely in a material or financial sense. But real, long-lasting comfort is likely to come from you devising a clever plan and pursuing a wonderful idea and doing either or both will, undoubtedly, enhance your relationship with someone else, or present you with one that could arguably be heaven sent.

Monday 29th September

Say it and say it confidently

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Ascendant from 29th September 2025 to 1st October 2025. Exact 30th September

We tend to be 'tuned in' to people who have much to say but who don't appear to be able to back up what they say. Such people tend to simply regurgitate what they've been told and have never chosen to question the validity or relevance to what they tell others.

However, some people appear to possess 'gift of the gab', make sense when they speak and capture others' imaginations with engaging words. You can bring an improvement to your emotional world or one special relationship by speaking confidently and knowledgeably now. You have something interesting and relevant to say. Don't feel otherwise.

Forecast for October 2025

Tuesday 30th September

Say it as you see it

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Mars from 30th September 2025 to 2nd October 2025. Exact 1st October

How are you supposed to gauge a certain person's mood or attitude now? It's difficult because people rarely say what they really mean. Someone's words are either coated in sugar or protected to a point where deciphering their message is difficult if not impossible.

They are either noticeably sweeter, or their words contain an unmistakable hint of aggression, and it might even be more than a hint at times. Believe that you're not kidding yourself or seeing or hearing something that doesn't exist.

Summon the courage to ask someone to make clearer what they're saying, and you will remove the mystery with less effort than you thought would be required.

Friday 3rd October

It's all about having a plan…

Transiting Mars Trines your natal MidHeaven from 3rd to 6th October 2025. Exact 5th October

To make anything happen, we need a plan. Even if we haven't sat down with a pen and paper or in front of a computer to create one, we are still following a plan of some kind if achieving something is important to us.

What plan are you following now? Is it one that is destined for success or failure? Perhaps it's time to determine if you are following a plan or are heading in a direction in a rudderless way. If you suspect your involvement with something or someone is heading in a direction that needs guidance or brought back on track, then now is a perfect time to do it.

Saturday 4th October

Seeing a situation as it really is

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Jupiter from 4th to 6th October 2025. Exact 5th October

If you're not seeing eye-to-eye with a certain person or are aware that tension is escalating between you and them, then coming developments could help. However, that doesn't necessarily mean such help won't bring further tension because a certain situation might need to worsen slightly before it can be improved. Think of the saying about the need to break eggs sometimes!

There appears to be uncertainty between you and someone close regarding an arrangement and where it goes from here. You're not as trapped as you might believe you are.

If you're willing to make progress and improve an arrangement that may no longer be valid and in need of updating, then a superb opportunity exists to do so now. The key to achieving this lies with you not seeing an issue as being bigger or more daunting than it really is.

The power of passion

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Pluto from 4th to 6th October 2025. Exact 5th October

Passion is always attractive. So too, is confidence. Passionate and confident people will always have the ability to turn heads or attract attention, and that might explain why you're being seen in such ways now. If you're not aware of how you are radiating intensity and carrying a particular kind of power, then you will, very soon.

That's why you need to understand what or whom you're becoming so passionate about. Is your passion being expressed positively or might it be attached to a dubious or even dangerous idea?

Try to curb your enthusiasm if you can because you could be at risk of going a bit too far too quickly. But perhaps that is a risk you're willing to ignore and take!

Also on Saturday

Look no further than a mirror

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Ascendant from 4th to 7th October 2025. Exact 6th October

Is there some unseen council that dictates who and what is attractive and who and what isn't? We need only look on the cover of glossy magazines to see who or what is deemed attractive and many people make such effort to measure their own attractiveness by what's socially acceptable.

You, however, don't need to measure your attractive levels – and your ability to attract – in such ways. You don't need to succumb to any pressure to meet someone else's criteria of what's attractive. In your personal world now, it's important to accept how attractive you are in the eyes of others.

Even if you wrongly believe you aren't 'measuring up' to someone else's ideas of attractiveness, have utter faith in how you are attracting very much the right attention through determination you are showing in some way. You know something or someone worth having is worth giving proper effort toward – and that, in itself, is attractive!

Sunday 5th October

Smile sweetly and look for what truly deserves your attention

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Sun from 5th to 7th October 2025. Exact 6th October

Should you turn the other cheek? Should you ignore provocation? Doing either will require much self-control. It will also require faith on your part because the act of ignoring such a bothersome factor is one that is unlikely be done easily. If you want to involve yourself in a pointless debate, then you can.

However, all the indications are, where tension exists between you and a certain person, you ought to avoid a drama that is better left alone. Something more constructive needs your time and attention. Look closely at what is far more simple, sweet and clearer and focus on that.

Monday 6th October

Time to be selective

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Mercury from 6th to 8th October 2025. Exact 7th October

We often resent having no options available to us. Then, we resent having too many. We like having a choice, but not too much choice. It is through having a bit too much choice in your relationship world now that is causing you to make what can only be described as a controversial decision – and making that is likely to bring about a controversial result!

Avoid giving time and attention to something or someone unworthy of both. With little effort, you can identify what or whom does deserve your attention. From there, you can make a decision that brings tangible and potentially heart-warming progress – and might cease a few tongues from wagging!

Tuesday 7th October

Trust your hunches

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Neptune from 7th to 9th October 2025. Exact 8th October

Sometimes, we're our own worst enemies when it comes to being 'talked out' of doing something. We tend to ignore our intuition because we know what it's telling us is right and we struggle with hearing the truth at times. In your personal world now, a certain truth is emerging.

There is something you are feeling, about a person or situation that you cannot ignore. What you want, before taking any action are facts. You would prefer your decisions were based on logic rather than hunches.

It is important though, to trust what you're feeling. Acknowledge and respect what your hunches are telling you. When the truth does emerge, you will be able to say with confidence and honesty that you knew it already.

Also on Tuesday

The importance of choosing wisely

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Uranus from 7th to 9th October 2025. Exact 8th October

The phrase 'falling in love' is a curious one. The word 'falling' implies we have little control over what we're experiencing and have no other option than invest huge amounts of faith in the fact that we'll be safe. Interestingly, we're often told to be careful about what we 'fall' for, meaning there is a risk that we could end up being deceived or duped.

In your personal world now, it's important to be careful about what – or whom – you're potentially 'falling' – or wishing - for. This isn't due to a possibility that you won't get what you want. It has much more to do with you likely attaining what or who you want only to discover that you should have been seeking something or someone else. In deciding, you needn't be specific.

Neither do you need to make grand or far-reaching plans for the future. You do, however, need to be discriminating and should you choose to pursue a particular plan or dream, be certain it feels right from the outset. An incorrect choice could result in a situation that might take you a long time to free yourself from.

Wednesday 8th October

What you give, you'll receive

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Moon from 8th to 10th October 2025. Exact 9th October

Some people will always believe that showing emotion is a sign of weakness. Right now, in your personal world, your greatest asset is not strength but softness. It is this quality that needs nurturing within you now. It is important that you dip deeply into your reserves of compassion, tolerance, patience, and support.

Even if you feel you're reaching the end of your proverbial tether, by being sensitive and supportive, you will find your tether can stretch further than you thought it would.

It's a case of 'doing unto others as you would have them do unto you' and if there's a particular person you want to get closer to, then you'll discover they're likely to respond toward you with whatever you're offering them.

Your heart won't fail you

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Saturn from 8th to 10th October 2025. Exact 9th October

We allow ourselves to be ruled by our heads. We also allow our hearts to have a say in what we ought to be doing or considering. Perhaps, that's why your head and various ideas you're generating are pulling you in one direction, and your feelings are pulling you in another.

You could be inclined now to support one and abandon the other. What ideally needs to happen is both your head and your heart working together, and the best way to achieve this is to decide what in your personal or relationship world is essential and what's merely little more than preferable. How can you tell which is which? That's easy.

Trust what you feel. Allow your instincts to guide you. Avoid the tendency to 'think' as much as you believe you must about a particular arrangement or situation and invest more faith in what you 'feel.' Your heart can have stronger influence if you'll allow it to and, if given a chance, won't fail you.

Also on Wednesday

Love you can depend on

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Venus from 8th to 11th October 2025. Exact 10th October

People sometimes go to great lengths in a material sense to show their affection toward another. Flowers and chocolates are wonderful to receive but not when the recipient isn't interested in such grand and seemingly empty gestures.

What you want is a particular person to be more consistently sweeter toward you. That's all. Methods they're choosing to use are likely falling short of what you believe you want and need and, if anything, such material gestures might even be making you feel more suspicious than grateful.

You want love you can depend on and, fortunately, you're closer to attaining that than you might think.

Curiously, both your bank account and heart look set to receive a very welcome boost. In your personal world though, you can expect proof of your ability to attract affection. Prepare, very soon, to attain what you feel most desirous of or is lacking where love, romance, and intimacy are concerned.

Saturday 11th October

Gentle persuasion is key

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal MidHeaven from 11th to 13th October 2025. Exact 12th October

There have been many popular songs that have focused on difference of opinion. One person says or believes one thing. Another person says or believes something else. Interestingly, such songs have only highlighted the problem without proposing a solution.

Where you and a certain person in your relationship world are potentially locking horns now, might this be due to a clash of opinion? The key to resolving this lies with continued and open communication. You're both closer to reaching a compromise than you believe.

It's fine, natural and acceptable for someone to adopt a contrary position but if success you want to see happen relies on them supporting your ideas or proposals, then with gentle persuasion and reiterating benefits to them of what you're proposing, you can achieve it.

Also on Saturday

Confidence is key

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Jupiter from 11th to 13th October 2025. Exact 12th October

We know how attractive confident people can be. We know how attractive we feel when people are appreciative of us and our abilities. In your relationship world now, you're about to experience a much-needed boost to your confidence, and this has strong implications regarding what you can make happen that you truly want to make happen.

Guard against a perceived need to use extreme measures to achieve this, though. What you're experiencing now is the result of having pushed your luck in the past. You don't need to find a big, 'new' solution. All you need to do is channel confidence into allowing an existing solution to give itself a chance to work – and it will!

Sunday 12th October

The secret to happiness isn't so elusive

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Sun from 12th to 14th October 2025. Exact 13th October

Is there a recipe for happiness? Do we need to stick to a rigid plan to be happy? In some ways, we do, but when we become too rigid to something that should be spontaneous, we lose the potential for happiness as well as some of the magic needed to create it.

In your personal world now, you have much support available to you to attain what so many people spend lifetimes trying to find or manifest – happiness!

You have a rare opportunity to experience a rise in your status in more than one person's eyes, but it is one person in particular who looks set to see you in a much different and positive way. That, in turn, will relieve pressure in a relationship where you've long wanted to experience it.

Also on Sunday

Power of attraction

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Ascendant from 12th to 14th October 2025. Exact 13th October

Some people know how to command respect from others. They manage to do this effortlessly and in ways that encourage others to cooperate or be drawn toward them willingly.

To make progress in an area of your personal world, you don't need to apply any harsh or aggressive tactics. Simply be yourself. Treat those you want to be closer to you in ways you would want to be treated, and you could be surprised at how easily it is to win friends or influence certain people.

It's fair to say you possess a 'magnetic personality' now. Magnets can be fickle things, though. They know what they like to be drawn toward and what they prefer to repel. You're being assisted to draw toward you what and whom you need. Trust that and allow the process to work something wonderful on your behalf.

Monday 13th October

There's nothing like a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Mercury from 13th to 16th October 2025. Exact 15th October

Sometimes, we experience things called 'Eureka Moments.' We can feel relieved or amazed when we make a vital discovery or something that has been problematic finally 'clicks' into place.

In your personal world now, such a discovery awaits you. You're about to be blessed with ingenuity. There's no need for you to work harder or smarter. Whatever plans or ideas come to light will be simple, obvious and effective.

Where your relationships are concerned, you're about to see how using your imagination will allow you to gain valuable insight into a problem and how you can then explore new ground. This is a time to believe in magic. Let a wonderful discovery reveal itself now.

Also on Monday

Don't let enthusiasm become frustration

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Mars from 13th to 16th October 2025. Exact 15th October

Mistakes, we know, are only mistakes when we make them a second time. With that in mind, what is it that you believe yourself to be in absolutely no doubt about now?

We tend to make the most mistakes when we're overly confident. In your personal world now, you're blessed with an ability to achieve whatever it is you set your heart on achieving and are likely to discover soon (if not already) that you have more physical and mental energy available to you.

It's important you guard against enthusiasm turning to frustration if you encounter an obstacle or an individual who chooses not to be as supportive of you in some way as you wish or believe they ought to be. As confident and certain you are of something or someone, need exists to be realistic.

Leave room for flexibility. Avoid the tendency to believe you are 100her right about something you know someone else has reservations about. Their reservations could be justified and, through being willing to accept a situation could be different to what you believe it to be, you could find yourself in a necessary – and potentially wonderful – position to compromise and reach an agreement or common ground.

Wednesday 15th October

Establishing boundaries

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Venus from 15th to 19th October 2025. Exact 17th October

Animals, as we know, can be very territorial. Humans often behave similarly. With that in mind, where do you stand with a certain person and where do they stand with you? There is a need to define - or perhaps redefine - 'territory.'

In other words, an agreement is needed regarding what is acceptable, unacceptable and possibly open to negotiation. Make no mistake; love is in the air. However, guidelines or boundaries exist and need to be acknowledged and agreed. Provided you and someone special can do both, then delightful and positive progress can be made.

Friday 17th October

Life and money

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Venus from 17th to 19th October 2025. Exact 18th October

A relationship needs to be redefined now, but you might be surprised at what relationship you're expected to redefine. It is your relationship with life that needs to be assessed.

It is also your relationship with bits of paper and metal we use to purchase things with that needs new perspective put upon it. What is it you're expected to do? Well, that's easy. All you need to do where life and money are concerned is not take either so seriously.

That's not to say you don't have issues surrounding both that do need addressing. You're being encouraged to address what cannot be ignored – but you're also being encouraged to accept that, one action has been taken, worrying is an exercise in futility.

Face what needs facing. Sort what needs sorting, and life will undoubtedly become noticeably sweeter and less tense.

Sunday 19th October

Right here, right now is what matters

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Pluto from 19th to 21st October 2025. Exact 20th October

There is much to be said about adopting a 'right here, right now' attitude because it is what's happening here and now, particularly where your relationship world is concerned, that needs and deserves attention. This will probably require you to shift your focus from the future briefly.

However, it's important you don't try to hasten a process unfolding in its own way and time. Despite how results, progress or certain romantic or relationship improvements were more encouraging or visible, it's important you trust that you are in the throes of a positive and transformative process. Soon, your current love life circumstances will likely appear vastly different.

That, however, is going to be the result of the process working on your behalf that cannot be rushed. Focus instead on here and now in the knowledge that change or improvement you yearn for is coming, and soon.

Also on Sunday

Do what you fear most, and your fear will disappear

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Pluto from 19th to 23rd October 2025. Exact 21st October

Despite how things may appear, you are not as alone as you perhaps believe yourself to be. You have assistance available to you, even if you cannot see it.

This is unlikely to be in the form of a person but it more likely to manifest from within you and without intending to wax lyrical about an issue that is probably causing you to be fearful, you can make something special happen now where your relationship with a certain person is concerned if you're willing to abandon a fear.

Does that sound more difficult than it's likely to be? Provided you can summon determination to overcome it while remaining calm and sensitive; you can remove a barrier and conquer a long-standing fear at the same time. This can only help you to embark upon or strengthen a relationship.

Monday 20th October

You can rebuild it

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Jupiter from 20th to 23rd October 2025. Exact 22nd October

Weightlifters understand the concept that building muscle requires muscle fibers to be broken down and allowed to rebuild during a healing process. When they rebuild themselves, they are bigger, better and stronger than before.

The analogy holds some relevance in your personal world now. Something needs to be broken down and rebuilt in some way. However, it's important you focus on how much better a romantic or relationship situation or arrangement will be from doing so.

If something feels right and makes you feel confident and assured, then chances are it doesn't need much of your attention. Focus instead on what you know to be uncertain or unstable. It can be fixed provided you're willing to instigate necessary change that can both heal and strengthen what needs healing or strengthening.

Tuesday 21st October

Don't let fear cause an opportunity to be missed

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Sun from 21st to 24th October 2025. Exact 23rd October

We make predictions every day. Sometimes, we're unaware of how many we actually make. Some of these we predict accurately, particularly if we have something historical to refer to. Sometimes, we don't fare quite so well, but that needn't always be cause for consolation.

Where you feel inclined to make certain predictions in an area of your personal world now, don't believe you need to own a crystal ball or possess unique psychic abilities. Investing belief in such things is as unnecessary as investing belief in the fact that whatever it is you're predicting is doomed to failure.

Fear, trepidation or a confidence crisis could be causing you to miss a wonderful opportunity presenting itself. Don't convince yourself that, by focusing on what you believe could go wrong, you're protecting yourself. Assume all will be well, act as if all will be well and you will discover, to your delight, that all will be well.

Wednesday 22nd October

Reviewing the situation

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 22nd to 24th October 2025. Exact 23rd October

There's a saying about trying and trying again, if, at first, we don't succeed. There's another related saying that involves taking time to read instructions.

Trying and trying again is fine and can bring the desired result, but if we're struggling, does it not make sense to stop and assess where we're going wrong? Perhaps, much depends on how badly we really want to make something happen.

It's time to consider how and why a dream or fantasy close to your heart doesn't seem any closer to manifesting despite your efforts. It's also time to consider if what you're pursuing is being done more out of habit than real, burning desire to achieve or attain it.

What was a priority once upon a time might not be as important to you now. Pursuing it might be done more out of determination or stubbornness than from within your heart.

This is a time of reassessment and reflection, but the process promises to be helpful, valuable, enlightening and eventually reassuring.

Also on Wednesday

It's 'here and now' that matters

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Uranus from 22nd to 24th October 2025. Exact 23rd October

Grass often appears greener on the other side of fences. Much often appears preferable in another place – or time! Is there something you wish you could turn the clock back now to do differently than you did way back when? In the same way it is unhelpful to be pondering the past, and what you could have done differently, it is equally unhelpful to be in too much of a rush to alter the future.

It is what's happening here, and now that needs your attention and deserves to be enjoyed and celebrated, despite how a situation may appear.

You're on the brink of a valuable and helpful discovery where your relationship with a certain person is concerned. Let what's unfolding continue to do so in the knowledge that you will soon have something to be very glad of.

Thursday 23th October

Loose lips sink ships

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Moon from 23rd to 25th October 2025. Exact 24th October

We're told it is better to say nothing and let the world suspect we're a fool than open our mouths and confirm any suspicions. Nobody is implying you are a fool.

However, a risk exists now that, through saying more than you ought to, you are putting yourself in a situation that could leave you red-faced or with a face covered with proverbial egg.

Confusion reigns supreme now, and while you have a valid point to make to you-know-who, you could find your jaw dropping in amazement at how they misinterpret what you're saying. There are times when we must speak up. There are also times when it wisest to say nothing. Now is such a time.

Also on Thursday

A valuable discovery

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Saturn from 23rd to 25th October 2025. Exact 24th October

You hopefully feel much more positive now than you have recently. If so, then that's good news and helpful because a certain 'iron' needs to be struck while it is 'hot', as the old saying goes.

There is something you need to learn about yourself and, by doing so and learning something valuable, you will be in an excellent position to make progress or bring a yearned-for improvement to a special connection.

Prepare to see evidence of how loved and respected you are in the eyes of others and one person in particular. It's time to address something you've chosen to ignore. Once you take a brave step forward, something between you and a special person will, in many ways, become noticeably easier and sweeter.

Also on Thursday

Smile and walk away

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mercury from 23rd to 26th October 2025. Exact 25th October

Few people love an argument. They might enjoy rising to the occasion, so to speak, but rarely is there any pleasure to be had from engaging in heated discussion or negotiation.

In your personal world now, you have a choice. You can allow yourself to be involved in an argument, intense debate or a very challenging suggestion or you can simply smile and walk away from any of the above.

Of course, doing the latter will require considerable self-control on your part as well as a reasonable amount of faith. You could even find yourself wondering if you dare ignore what appears such a demanding and bothersome issue.

It would, however, be better to detach yourself from the matter presenting itself now than pursue a long, exhausting diversion with what will ultimately prove to be a difficult - and irrelevant - option.

Friday 24th October

Looking beyond the obvious

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 24th to 28th October 2025. Exact 26th October

People often use the phrase 'bottling up' when it comes to emotions. Now is an ideal time to not only release a few feelings or powerful emotions but to take a risk or two where forming or strengthening a close relationship is concerned. You might also be feel powerfully drawn to something – or someone - mysterious.

Breaking from a norm and exploring what you might normally choose to ignore or write off as odd or peculiar is worth exploring or considering now. Doing so might reveal a side of someone's personality that you never knew existed and it might be the way you get past a mysterious barrier they've hidden behind that causes your heart to beat a little bit faster.

Saturday 25th October

Keeping your distance

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Uranus from 25th to 28th October 2025. Exact 26th October

What's needed now is space. Breathing space. Thinking space. Whatever you want to call it, a need exists to create a brief bit of distance between you and a certain person because a relationship equilibrium is changing.

An arrangement is shifting and as positive as this process is, you and someone special might be inclined to focus on differences between you that could arise as a result of what you're now adjusting to. With change, upheaval and insecurity are never far behind and it might be a bit of both that you and a certain person feel or are experiencing now.

Riding this one out is best done by allowing each other time and space to adjust to what's happening. Just like the hands of a clock only move forward, so too is something in your connection. Trust that it's positive, necessary and possibly overdue.

Sunday 26th October

Take notice of what's begging to be noticed

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Venus from 26th to 28th October 2025. Exact 27th October

Would you like to experience a breakthrough? Does the thought of being presented with a chance to instigate a new and very different plan in your personal world hold any appeal? As much as you might be inclined to answer 'yes' to both questions, you could (understandably) have reservations about what will change or if a breakthrough or chance to bring about a much-needed change will bring what you truly desire.

You're in an exceptional position now to experience both. For this to happen, you need only heed the idea that is begging you to take notice of it. If you are willing to see how much potential is on offer from seizing an opportunity now, then something truly heart-warming can make its way to you.

Also on Sunday

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Jupiter from 26th to 29th October 2025. Exact 28th October

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Also on Sunday

Everyone has an opinion

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Moon from 26th to 29th October 2025. Exact 28th October

Many hands, we are told, make light work. Sometimes, when many hands become involved, so too do many opinions. Suddenly, others see a need to provide unhelpful input or cast negative aspersions, and you could feel a need to defend yourself against someone who believes they're right to be critical of you in some way.

What started off as calm collaboration may have become strained or divided due to a clash of opinion on both sides. You know, in your heart, what is right and makes sense. Trust that, in time, someone who can't see or feel what you feel will do so before long.

Also on Sunday

Keeping your cool

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Saturn from 26th to 30th October 2025. Exact 28th October

Have you ever wondered how martial arts experts remain so calm and in control one minute but able to put fists through wooden planks or blocks of concrete the next? This ability has much to do with suppressing and targeting anger or hostility.

It also has much to do with an ability to summon patience, discipline, endurance, and resistance. Might such qualities be needed by you where your relationship with a certain person is concerned?

To maintain control of a volatile situation and improve a special connection, all you need to do is smile, count to ten and let any tension dissipate. Trust that it doesn't need to be released in any other way.

Monday 27th October

Exploring your options

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Sun from 27th to 30th October 2025. Exact 29th October

People often speak about being 'stuck in ruts.' It's interesting how many people are willing to accept that's how things must be. They convince themselves that a rut they find themselves in will require more effort than they're prepared to give to remove themselves from it, or they fear change that will come as a result of doing so.

You are being presented with an opportunity to instigate a change that will get you out of a rut that you may feel you're stuck in.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Tuesday 28th October

Personal popularity

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Ascendant from 28th to 31st October 2025. Exact 30th October

Few people need convincing of how attractive confident people often are. People who exude confidence can have an almost Pied Piper effect on others, or they at least turn a head or two from those who are inquisitive.

You're in a superb position now to create your own 'self-image'; how you're seen in the eyes of those who know you and who, through a noticeable sense of ease and self-worth, want to know you. You don't need to go to great lengths to impress anyone.

You need only be yourself now to meet new and interesting people – and probably won't have to look very hard to identify those whose interests are of the romantic variety!

Wednesday 29th October

The truth needs respect

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mercury from 29th October 2025 to 1st November 2025. Exact 31st October

We're sometimes accused of 'kidding ourselves.' We often have good reason to resent such a comment. After all, why would someone else be so quick to draw a conclusion about how they feel we've drawn an incorrect or inaccurate conclusion? Where your relationship world is concerned, you have a very good reason to believe you know the truth about something someone else is inclined to think you've grasped the wrong end of the proverbial stick about.

Stick with what you know to be right and real. The truth deserves respect now, and you're in a perfect position to support it, based on what your intuition is telling you.

Thursday 30th October

Allow yourself to be drawn

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Mars from 30th October 2025 to 1st November 2025. Exact 31st October

When we feel good, and on top of the world, we often don't feel challenged. That's fine, provided we have had enough of being challenged and are enjoying the respite. However, when faced with a problem, we usually have an idea of a solution that needs applying. In your personal world now, you're being given a chance to decide how you should react to a situation that appears challenging.

The best and quickest solution will come to you if you're willing to simply allow that which wants you, to have you. A very positive process is unfolding, and this involves someone who needs you and a way in which you are 'required' in some way. Make yourself available.

Don't resist how you are being drawn to whom or what needs you now. What appears challenging will, soon enough, become pleasing and comfortable.

Also on Thursday

No shrinking violets

Transiting Sun Trines your natal MidHeaven from 30th October 2025 to 1st November 2025. Exact 31st October

A little bit of praise, we know, can go a long way. Praise, when we know we deserve it, can do much to boost our confidence levels and encourage us to think more about what else we might be capable of.

In an area of your personal world now, you're well placed to receive praise and recognition, and this can only spur you on to want to achieve more.

If you're willing to back up your words with action, then some form of personal success is assured. You probably don't have to force issues and could be surprised at how accepted you and what you're proposing or suggesting are.

This is a time to make clear to certain others - or one person in particular - what you truly want. Don't be a shrinking violet. Aim high, and you'll be delighted with responses you receive.

Forecast for November 2025

Saturday 1st November

Sharing of energy

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Jupiter from 1st to 4th November 2025. Exact 3rd November

Within the strongest relationships, teamwork is almost always evident. Nothing brings two people closer together than a shared objective or keenness to work together to solve a problem.

Your relationship with someone special can improve wonderfully if you're prepared to work with them in a competitive or corroborative environment. Whether this be athletic or simply doing a crossword puzzle together, focusing on a shared achievement or solution promises a delightful meeting of minds.

Sunday 2nd November

Singing from the same hymn sheet

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Sun from 2nd to 5th November 2025. Exact 4th November

Does someone close share your ambitions? They might not want the same as you do from life but that shouldn't make them unsupportive of your aims. What about you? Does your paramour believe you and they are 'on the same page' where their aspirations are concerned?

Perhaps, but rarely do two people ever want precisely the same thing. As keen as you might be to have an open and honest conversation with a loved one or potential partner to ensure you're both in agreement about what you truly want, you might need to allow for the fact that you-know-who doesn't share, on the same level, your needs or ambitions.

This needn't be bad, negative or something to be concerned about. All you need to do is focus on the common ground that does exist. This can lead to an idea or plan that offers something exciting and worthwhile that can be built or strengthened between you.

Tuesday 4th November

Confidence in measured doses

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Jupiter from 4th to 6th November 2025. Exact 6th November

We hear people say that they or others 'don't know their own strength.' Throughout history and in popular culture, there have been many characters who possessed superhuman strength and, despite being able to make spectacular things happen, often found themselves wishing they were a bit more delicate or sensitive.

In your personal world now, you are being blessed with an impressive ability to cause things to happen with the sheer force of your will. This, combined with an ability to be smart and generally lucky, is putting you in a very strong position. Be careful.

Avoid any tendency to be unnecessarily forceful or overly determined. Where your relationships with certain people – and likely one person in particular – are concerned, you can achieve a spectacular result. Be realistic and confident. But not too confident!

Wednesday 5th November

Let the real you emerge

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Sun from 5th to 7th November 2025. Exact 6th November

There's a certain person in your world deserving of more respect than you're showing them. There's a particular individual concerned unnecessarily about how they're seen in the eyes of certain others. You know this person very well and, to discover their identity, all you have to do is look in the nearest mirror.

In your personal world, need exists for you to muster a bit more self-respect and dignity than you might be used to mustering. That doesn't mean you have a specific reason to be more self-respectful, but neither does it mean one isn't being created.

If you really want to emerge from any situation with the ability to walk tall and proud, then abandon entirely any concerns about how you look in the eyes of others. Trust what you feel to be right and don't succumb to any pressure from certain others about what you ought to be feeling.

Also on Wednesday

Commanding respect

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Mercury from 5th to 8th November 2025. Exact 7th November

To hear some lawyers argue with each other in courtrooms, we could understandably believe they dislike each other intensely. Given the intensity of their heated exchanges, it's natural to wonder if any level of friendship could possibly exist between them.

Often, when their work is done for that day, they head to a bar or restaurant together to unwind and talk about anything other than their respective cases. The need to strongly convey or defend a point needn't always result in animosity or bitterness – and shouldn't be feared, either.

You're in a strong position now to gain respect from someone close to your heart by defending a viewpoint or standing up for yourself in some way. They might have been waiting to see how passionately you believe in what you're so keen to defend or stand up for. Do so confidently but not aggressively.

Thursday 6th November

Facing what needs to be faced

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Mercury from 6th to 9th November 2025. Exact 8th November

When we feel unable to relax, the last thing we want to hear is someone telling us to relax. After all, we have our reasons for feeling tetchy, nervous or apprehensive and believe that anyone who tries to convince us otherwise clearly is unable to grasp what we believe we understand.

There are, however, limits to how much anyone can worry. In your personal world now, it's important you accept how, through ignoring something that needs to be acknowledged, you're not coming close to creating a solution.

Through denying the existence of a problem, you also deny yourself an opportunity to take constructive action to remedy it. Deal now with what you are trying to ignore. It isn't as daunting as it appears, and life will become sweeter once you have faced what needs facing.

Saturday 8th November

Let time bring a desired improvement

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Venus from 8th to 10th November 2025. Exact 9th November

In the same way it can be difficult to remove a song embedded in our minds, it can be as equally difficult to banish thoughts or images.

In your personal world now, there is something or someone you feel very attracted to, intrigued by and excited about but banishing this thought could prove to be an exercise in futility.

However, the good news is, you don't have to make a real, concerted effort to do anything at this stage. You can afford to wait until you're in a better position to make a move.

Have faith in the fact that your situation will improve naturally over time and, where your love life is concerned, if it leaves much to be desired then have even more faith in the fact that, very soon, you can expect proof of how desired by at least one person you are.

Monday 10th November

Don't succumb to 'que sera sera'

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Pluto from 10th to 13th November 2025. Exact 12th November

Are you in control of a particular outcome or do you feel as if 'whatever will be, will be'?

Even if it feels as if unseen forces are at work to encourage you toward a particular outcome, and you have no option other than to allow yourself to end up wherever it is you're going to end up, it is essential that you have absolute faith in the fact that you do possess the ability to influence a situation that (understandably) gives the impression of being immovable or inflexible.

In your personal world, it is time to overcome a fear. Once done, you will be superbly placed to take control of whatever has appeared to control you and then turn a daunting situation into one that becomes much more inspiring.

Wednesday 12th November

Bringer of harmony

Transiting Venus Trines your natal MidHeaven from 12th to 14th November 2025. Exact 13th November

Many people believe attack to be the best strategy to adopt when defending themselves. With some people, we can see their barriers appearing like rolling metallic doors, and when these become evident, they often encourage or prolong further confrontation.

You, however, are superbly placed to diffuse a tense situation and replace tension with friendliness and warmth. You needn't invest considerable effort with this. Simply be yourself, and it's possible you can create harmony effortlessly.

Your personal world can definitely be affected and influenced positively through a love of beauty and desire for peace and, through being instrumental in building bridges or assisting with the extension of olive branches, you can bring about a positive change in your romantic or personal world.

Friday 14th November

Action will cause a most pleasing reaction

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 14th to 16th November 2025. Exact 15th November

Action always causes a reaction. If we aim at nothing, then we're guaranteed to hit it.

The above might seem painfully obvious but we all, from time to time, don't invest effort where we know we need to and one of the main reasons for this stems from fear of failure or rejection.

In an area of your personal world now, you need to tell - and convince - yourself that certain goals, dreams or desires are not beyond your grasp.

If you're willing to make a genuine and worthwhile effort toward attaining something – or someone – that means a great deal to you, then the time to pursue it or them couldn't be better.

Investing the right kind of effort now will bring magical and pleasing progress. Additionally, you'll gain much needed, fresh perspective where it is needed, and this will undoubtedly make a very big difference to your attitude, confidence, and life!

A turning point, not a backward step

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Uranus from 14th to 16th November 2025. Exact 15th November

There are times when we have no option other than to push a point. We are all capable of accepting or tolerating a situation to a certain point and then it becomes clear that something must 'give.'

Within your personal world now, you could be increasingly aware of how you might have been too quick to reject something - or someone – you previously felt so able to accept. This is causing you to doubt your judgment about a particular matter and possibly believe yourself to be illogical, impractical or inconsistent.

It's important to understand that you have finally reached a turning point in some way regarding an agreement or arrangement. It's also important that you believe this is extremely positive and worth celebrating, not a cause for consolation.

Also on Friday

Listening is key

Transiting Mars Squares your natal MidHeaven from 14th to 17th November 2025. Exact 16th November

Where a certain person is concerned, is it possible to 'meet in the middle' somehow? This could be a time when you address certain needs of yours - and if someone can satisfy them.

That's fine, provided you're aware of the strong likelihood of you being 'put in your place' or told to know your place in the scheme of things. It is this likely scenario that will probably encourage you to want to reach some form of compromise.

By taking the initiative and making clear what you need and why you need it, you're giving someone close the chance to do the same. Provided you're both willing to listen, then a compromise can not only be reached but you and your paramour might set a helpful precedent regarding how to deal with and resolve a similar issue in the future.

The truth needs respect

Transiting Mercury Retrograde Sextiles your natal Mercury from 15th to 17th November 2025. Exact 16th November

We're sometimes accused of 'kidding ourselves.' We often have good reason to resent such a comment. After all, why would someone else be so quick to draw a conclusion about how they feel we've drawn an incorrect or inaccurate conclusion? Where your relationship world is concerned, you have a very good reason to believe you know the truth about something someone else is inclined to think you've grasped the wrong end of the proverbial stick about.

Stick with what you know to be right and real. The truth deserves respect now, and you're in a perfect position to support it, based on what your intuition is telling you.

Also on Saturday

Success through self-improvement

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Moon from 15th to 17th November 2025. Exact 16th November

We know how exerting ourselves physically can result in weariness. We also know how a drain on our resources, particularly if it's something sapping our emotional strength, can be as tiring.

In your personal world now, such a drain on resources exists in some way, and if you do not already see evidence of this, then proof will become clear soon.

Fortunately, you will also see a way to solve this particular problem. Rather than lay down laws or bang fists on a table to make clear to a certain person that you've had enough of this tiring scenario, you'd be well advised to adopt a cleverer, more permanent strategy.

Be subtle, even if you feel like being anything but subtle. Instead of investing effort toward pushing a point or even waging war, invest effort toward understanding yourself better, look closely at what your weaknesses are and what's required from you to be a better and more understanding person.

That's not the same as tolerating something you don't have to tolerate but, if you're willing to look closely at how improving aspects of yourself will improve you as a person, then you can expect a true victory that is much more worth having and one that will resolve the tiring issue in ways confrontation could never hope to achieve.

From chaos stability will come

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Saturn from 15th to 18th November 2025. Exact 17th November

Some people thrive on chaos. It spurs them on to make impressive achievements. Other people avoid chaos wherever possible. They know they get the best results from operating in structured and predictable environments.

In your personal world, you would much prefer the latter. You want something to be more efficient, stable and structured but cannot help but be painfully aware of all that seems chaotic or unpredictable.

Expect soon, to enjoy a more stable and less volatile situation. Until then, don't overlook or underestimate the progress you are making in amongst the unignorable chaos!

Exploring your options

Transiting Mercury Retrograde Sextiles your natal Sun from 17th to 19th November 2025. Exact 18th November

People often speak about being 'stuck in ruts.' It's interesting how many people are willing to accept that's how things must be. They convince themselves that a rut they find themselves in will require more effort than they're prepared to give to remove themselves from it, or they fear change that will come as a result of doing so.

You are being presented with an opportunity to instigate a change that will get you out of a rut that you may feel you're stuck in.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Retrograde Trines your natal Jupiter from 17th to 19th November 2025. Exact 19th November

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Wednesday 19th November

Call off the quest for perfection

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Venus from 19th to 21st November 2025. Exact 20th November

We know nobody's perfect. We also know nothing in life is perfect, either. Even that which appears perfect has imperfections if we're prepared to find them. But why would we want to find that which isn't perfect within something that appears perfect? With that in mind, what levels of perfection are you expecting within your personal world now? Of course, your relationships with certain others will never be perfect.

That's what makes them so fascinating and intriguing. Things might not be as smooth and comfortable as you'd like them to be but the drama you sense looming on the horizon is unlikely to be anywhere near as tense, important or threatening as it appears, either.

All you need to do now to bring about a near-perfect result in your relationship world is refrain from worrying or focusing too intently on finding perfection where 'near perfection' will suffice!

An investigative adventure

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Jupiter from 19th to 21st November 2025. Exact 21st November

Do you own a deerstalker hat, curved Calabash pipe, and a magnifying glass? Anyone donning or holding these items would be easily identifiable as Sherlock Holmes and, in an area of your personal world now, need exists for you to become a sleuth of some kind.

There's a need to acquire information, canvass opinion and research every aspect of a particular story. You probably have your suspicions about the outcome of your efforts but are also aware of dangers surrounding being too impulsive - or assumptive - now.

What you need to confirm requires effort on your part to uncover what needs to be uncovered or identify what is waiting to be identified. Then, once you've finished your fact-gathering exercise, you can expect to find yourself surprised and then delighted in some way with what you discover.

Thursday 20th November

Courage will bring a positive outcome

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Sun from 20th to 22nd November 2025. Exact 21st November

When faced with a task or decision that doesn't exactly fill us with inspiration or confidence, we sometimes create reasons, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid or postpone it.

That's a natural reaction and doesn't mean we're weak. Life, after all, is to be enjoyed and we reserve the right to prolong for as much as we can enjoyment we're experiencing.

In an area of your personal world now, it is probably becoming clear that a difficult conversation needs to be had or an awkward fact needs to be faced. The fact that you might be postponing doing anything about either or both could stem from your belief that you've accurately pre-judged an outcome, when, in fact, you might not have.

With a tense relationship, situation or arrangement, there's more fluidity and flexibility than you think. That's why you can and ought to raise difficult topics without fear of feeling afraid, ashamed or guilty.

By taking a brave step forward, facing what needs to be faced and taking action reinforced by the belief that a positive outcome is available, you can expect to feel more confident and hopeful, very soon.

You hopefully feel much more positive now than you have recently. If so, then that's good news and helpful because a certain 'iron' needs to be struck while it is 'hot', as the old saying goes.

There is something you need to learn about yourself and, by doing so and learning something valuable, you will be in an excellent position to make progress or bring a yearned-for improvement to a special connection.

Prepare to see evidence of how loved and respected you are in the eyes of others and one person in particular. It's time to address something you've chosen to ignore. Once you take a brave step forward, something between you and a special person will, in many ways, become noticeably easier and sweeter.

We're told it is better to say nothing and let the world suspect we're a fool than open our mouths and confirm any suspicions. Nobody is implying you are a fool.

However, a risk exists now that, through saying more than you ought to, you are putting yourself in a situation that could leave you red-faced or with a face covered with proverbial egg.

Confusion reigns supreme now, and while you have a valid point to make to you-know-who, you could find your jaw dropping in amazement at how they misinterpret what you're saying. There are times when we must speak up. There are also times when it wisest to say nothing. Now is such a time.

The key to happiness is yours

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Pluto from 21st to 23rd November 2025. Exact 22nd November

It's both easy and natural for us to want what we haven't got. When we become aware of an absence, we start to identify ways in which we might be happier if only we had what is missing. The other side of the proverbial coin involves wishing something was removed from our world, believing life would be simpler and happier without it.

In your personal world now, you are being granted an exceptional opportunity to be happy. To seize and benefit from this opportunity, all you need to do is stop focusing on what might go wrong in a certain situation.

Avoid succumbing to a tendency to be overly cautious or pessimistic. If you are willing to relax and believe wholeheartedly that an uncertain situation can and will improve, then you can expect to be surprised at how much quicker happiness starts to permeate your world.

Grass often appears greener on the other side of fences. Much often appears preferable in another place – or time! Is there something you wish you could turn the clock back now to do differently than you did way back when? In the same way it is unhelpful to be pondering the past, and what you could have done differently, it is equally unhelpful to be in too much of a rush to alter the future.

It is what's happening here, and now that needs your attention and deserves to be enjoyed and celebrated, despite how a situation may appear.

You're on the brink of a valuable and helpful discovery where your relationship with a certain person is concerned. Let what's unfolding continue to do so in the knowledge that you will soon have something to be very glad of.

Reviewing the situation

Transiting Mercury Retrograde Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 21st to 24th November 2025. Exact 23rd November

There's a saying about trying and trying again, if, at first, we don't succeed. There's another related saying that involves taking time to read instructions.

Trying and trying again is fine and can bring the desired result, but if we're struggling, does it not make sense to stop and assess where we're going wrong? Perhaps, much depends on how badly we really want to make something happen.

It's time to consider how and why a dream or fantasy close to your heart doesn't seem any closer to manifesting despite your efforts. It's also time to consider if what you're pursuing is being done more out of habit than real, burning desire to achieve or attain it.

What was a priority once upon a time might not be as important to you now. Pursuing it might be done more out of determination or stubbornness than from within your heart.

This is a time of reassessment and reflection, but the process promises to be helpful, valuable, enlightening and eventually reassuring.

Saturday 22nd November

Free yourself from a repetitive situation

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mercury from 22nd to 24th November 2025. Exact 23rd November

Despite what happened yesterday, many of us will continue to do tomorrow what we did today. That's a somewhat complex way of saying we are all creatures of habit. We resent repetition on one level yet crave it on another.

In your personal world, you're presented with an opportunity to break free from a tired and tedious drama. You are no longer obliged to stick what is tried and tested or very familiar.

If you're willing to invest some effort in releasing yourself from a repetitive situation that no longer suits you, then it can be done. It won't be long before you discover how many other, more suitable options are available to you.

Monday 24th November

No second-rate substitutes here

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Neptune from 24th to 26th November 2025. Exact 25th November

If we're shopping and an item we want is unavailable, we tend not to be as receptive to accepting a substitute. If our heart is set on attaining a particular item, then it doesn't matter how it looks or if it serves a similar purpose, we know what we like and like what we know.

In other areas of our world, we can sometimes be a bit too quick to accept that which is a poor substitute or 'second-rate' option. In your relationship world now, you are being presented with a wonderful opportunity. You, however, could be inclined to see it as a poor alternative to what you believe your heart truly desires.

You could be inclined to shrug your shoulders and tell yourself that 'this is as good as it's likely to get' and you'd best make do with what you have available. Push aside all logic and reason. Listen to your heart and what your intuition is telling you. Then, you will soon be able to see how right what you're being offered now really is.

Knowledge is power

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Uranus from 24th to 26th November 2025. Exact 25th November

Some peoples' sweet smiles often conceal hidden agendas. We can't always tell who is supportive of us and who has plans to scupper our plans. In your relationship world now, there is strong likelihood that someone has an unconscious agenda of doubt or mistrust.

The good news is, there is little you need to do to encourage what has been hidden into the open. Little effort on your part is required to make right what has been wrong of late.

You're about to be in a stronger and more knowledgeable position through information that will come to light shortly. It might not have you punching the air with joy, but you will be grateful for the fact that you will soon be in a much stronger position to know precisely what you will need to do next.

Remove your barriers

Many songs have been written by people who felt compelled to share with us the intense feeling of being in love. Such people found their capacity to care was seemingly limitless. They discovered as well through experiencing the joy of love that their ability to show compassion, patience, tolerance, and kindness became inexhaustible.

They willingly removed barriers that kept all such feelings at bay. With that in mind, how are you doing with your barriers? You're probably aware of how your emotions are being softened but could be equally aware of reasons you believe you have to be fearful of exposing yourself emotionally.

There's a question you want an answer to now. To receive an answer, you're going to have to make yourself a tiny bit vulnerable but will soon discover that the act of doing so will be enormously helpful and pivotal.

Leave serendipity out of it

Can you afford to be fussy now? Of course, you can. Not only can you afford to be fussy, but it would also be in your best interests to be so. Dare you take a risk though? Ah, that begs a more important question but what matters now is how you view the risk you're taking. Think of it as 'improvising' rather than undertaking a daunting act.

In your personal world now, you have a very particular and specific goal in mind. There is undoubtedly something you yearn to see happen. You're aware that, to achieve this, you're going to have to take a chance in some way. You know that making something wonderful happen between you and someone else will require you to be selective and structured in your approach.

A heart-warming development is on offer provided you ensure the right kind of disciplined preparations are in place first. Take a brave step forward in the knowledge that you're not leaving a result to happen entirely by chance.

Hearts beat faster

On many cakes, icing can transform something that might have edible but not nearly as appealing or inspiring. In the same way icing adds welcome sweetness to what might have been bland, you have a chance to bring a delightful level of sweetness to a connection that could benefit from it.

Conditions are ideal for demonstrating or conveying positive and affectionate feelings. Allow your enhanced physical attraction to play a part in enticing someone new into your world or discovering (or rediscovering) qualities about a partner you hadn't seen previously or forgotten about.

This is a time when a new level of appeal, sensuality and passion can work some magic in connection that might have been more 'vanilla' than voluptuous. It could also be a time you'll look back on fondly as one where something shifted intimately between you and your paramour.

Tuesday 25th November

Right here, right now is what matters

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Pluto from 25th November 2025 to 2nd December 2025. Exact 29th November

There is much to be said about adopting a 'right here, right now' attitude because it is what's happening here and now, particularly where your relationship world is concerned, that needs and deserves attention. This will probably require you to shift your focus from the future briefly.

However, it's important you don't try to hasten a process unfolding in its own way and time. Despite how results, progress or certain romantic or relationship improvements were more encouraging or visible, it's important you trust that you are in the throes of a positive and transformative process. Soon, your current love life circumstances will likely appear vastly different.

That, however, is going to be the result of the process working on your behalf that cannot be rushed. Focus instead on here and now in the knowledge that change or improvement you yearn for is coming, and soon.

Dare to dream

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Jupiter from 28th to 30th November 2025. Exact 29th November

Do you dare to dream? Do you risk pursuing any of the wild ideas likely occupying your thoughts now? The answer to both questions is undoubtedly 'yes.' Dream as much as you dare to. Entertain as many of the wild ideas as you can because, in your relationship world now, one or two dreams or ideas will lead you toward a very clever move.

You're entering a time that promises to be more rewarding than you probably suspect, and once you see evidence of rewards, you're likely to want more. Is there a downside to this? The only point to consider surrounds possible belief on your part that any inch should be seized and made into a mile.

At least one tempting possibility is presenting itself, and through your confidence being boosted, you might be oblivious to how charismatic you appear in the eyes of certain others. Go with the flow now and avoid the tendency to be forceful or overly determined. Let what is unfolding naturally do so in its own way while continuing to dream and let ideas create themselves.

It's all moving forward

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Sun from 29th November 2025 to 1st December 2025. Exact 30th November

Depending on where we are on planet Earth, we're constantly spinning at between 700 and 900 miles per hour. If we stand still, we feel nothing. We're oblivious to how the spinning rock which we inhabit is hurtling through space at approximately 67,000 miles per hour.

So, can it not be said that even when we think nothing is happening in our world or situations show no sign of progress, we're part of a complex process that indicates otherwise? In your personal world now, you probably suspect you're standing still. You're not. You are making real and tangible progress.

You probably suspect a certain situation is far from ideal and makes little sense. Actually, it is very ideal and makes a lot of sense. This is a time to look closely at what appears imperfect and discover that there is a real reason to believe you're much closer to the desired scenario than you probably believe.

Go solo - for now

Transiting Sun Squares your natal MidHeaven from 29th November 2025 to 1st December 2025. Exact 30th November

Many of us adhere to the old saying, 'if a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly.' An extension of this saying goes 'if a job's worth doing, then it's worth doing yourself' in the belief that, sometimes, if we want something to be done in a way we will be satisfied with, then we must undertake to do it ourselves.

In your personal world now, there is something that you ought to consider doing solo without help or intervention from others. You could be prone to negative criticism from one or two people, possibly those you believe to be authoritative in some way, who don't quite connect with what it is you're trying to achieve.

This doesn't make them or you wrong. It means you have some work to do to reassure certain people or a certain person that an ambitious plan is viable. That's why you might need to 'go it alone' for the time being to gain support and understanding where both might be unavailable now.

A solution in the form of a brainwave

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Mercury from 30th November 2025 to 3rd December 2025. Exact 2nd December

Life ticks along in ways that we get used to and then suddenly, we find ourselves dealing with a development that truly grabs our attention. We wonder where on Earth such a development could have come from, what caused it or how instrumental we were in making it happen.

Something similar happens with brainwaves. We become very used to a situation that we know is crying out for a new and exciting idea. In your personal world now, that's precisely what you can expect. Powerful forces are being unleashed in your life. You're not quite sure how you ought to be acknowledging or adapting to them.

Let the solution that is determined to make its way to you come to you and then embrace it. It is precisely what you need now.

Bring out the objectivity

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Pluto from 30th November 2025 to 3rd December 2025. Exact 2nd December

Obsession – is it healthy or unhealthy? Many would argue it is unhealthy, especially if it causes us to cross a line deemed acceptable or appropriate. That's why you need to stand back in some way now.

If you're able to resist the temptation to give your all to someone or something, then you will at least be able to gain some necessary objectivity. It's important to see a romantic or relationship situation in an unbiased and realistic way.

Distancing yourself briefly from what you're determined to steer or control could make you better placed to move forward toward it in the future when it suits you to do so. It might also help a loved one to see that you can draw a line between being passionate and obsessive.

Also on Sunday

Sharing in measured doses

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Ascendant from 30th November 2025 to 4th December 2025. Exact 2nd December

From a young age, we're taught to share and accept that there is much in our world that must be shared. However, we prefer to do this willingly rather than feel forced to do so. When we feel such a way, then it's often because someone believes we're greedy or selfish.

Consider how much you ought to share with a certain person and why. You could find yourself having to give more than you ought to in some way and in ways that benefit someone else more than you. Trust your instincts to help you determine how much someone deserves or is entitled to. It's possible that bringing a new level of balance between what you and someone give each other, you can bring an improvement to something that has been ignored due to a fear of creating an imbalance.

Wednesday 3rd December

Drop barriers

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Mars from 3rd to 6th December 2025. Exact 5th December

Many people say they don't care what others think of them. In truth, that's rarely the case. We all, to some extent, care what others think and prefer them to think well of us.

Something that does tend to cause others to think otherwise if focusing on our own needs is done at the cost of others.

You are likely very aware now of how and why you ought to be putting your own needs and desires first, and if you want to embark upon a new relationship or strengthen an existing one, then this is likely to cause one or two problems.

Look closely at how defensiveness might be playing a part in this – and then look more closely at why you have no reason to feel quite so defensive!

Clearing the air

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Uranus from 5th to 8th December 2025. Exact 7th December

Each of has a limit to how much we will tolerate regarding an undesirable situation. Some of us have long fuses. Others, well, it doesn't take much for them to air their frustrations or anger. You appear to be experiencing – or are about to experience – an outburst of sorts that will make very clear where your or someone else's frustrations lie.

This probably stems from a perceived obstacle hindering romantic or relationship progress in some way. Let the air clear. Give tense energy a chance to subside before pursuing the matter. Once you and you and you-know-who assess and discuss the matter rationally, you can learn from it and put the tense episode behind you.

Saturday 6th December

Don't sell yourself short

Transiting Venus Squares your natal MidHeaven from 6th to 8th December 2025. Exact 7th December

Relationships are two-way things. We know what we expect from another person, and they usually have a clear idea what they ideally want from us. Given that we know this two-way process must exist, we still struggle to meet others' expectations or their demands.

If, in your personal or relationship world now, you're trying to seek love or approval, then be aware of lengths you ought to go to attain either. You could be at risk of investing more effort than is required and altering unnecessarily how you're seen in the eyes of others.

Don't sell yourself short in the belief that onus is entirely on you to take the initiative where the process should be two-fold.

Sunday 7th December

Yes sir, no sir…

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Saturn from 7th to 10th December 2025. Exact 8th December

Authority figures often have different ideas to the rest of us. What makes perfect sense to them regarding how and why something should be done a certain way sometimes confuses us.

This is often because they assume we have had the same train of thought about rules or procedures as they have and when they discover we haven't, that's when tension or problems arise. Your relationship with a certain person – possibly in a position of authority – needs careful care now.

Limitations are being imposed upon you. The more you can smile, nod and do what's being asked of you, the more you will play a helpful role in dissipating a potentially tense situation.

Time to be brave

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Venus from 7th to 10th December 2025. Exact 9th December

To what extent might fear of failure or rejection be preventing you from attaining what – or whom – you desire?

You know what you want yet appear to have a fear of declaring or asking for it. Perhaps, it seems easier to give just a tiny bit of yourself or your desires away than lay fully your proverbial cards on the table.

Through convincing yourself that failure or rejection are assured, you're not making the brave moves you need to. It's necessary to give full concentration and focus if you are to be successful with your secret plan.

The first thing to do surrounds making it a secret no longer. Be honest, at least with yourself. Then, make a heartfelt and concerted effort to reach for what (or who) you love.

Tuesday 9th December

Happily ever after

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Jupiter from 9th to 11th December 2025. Exact 10th December

Most leading fairy tale characters tend to live 'happily ever after.' Whether or not they did is something we will never know. All that we know is, one chapter in their respective worlds ended and another began and, in your world now, something awkward or tense has ended, and something better is beginning.

If you're not already seeing evidence that life is becoming sweeter, noticeably more sensible and logical, then you will soon enough. This can only have a very positive knock-on effect to your relationships and with one person in particular.

Positive and encouraging news is on its way to you, and this should help you to strike a deal or implement an arrangement of agreement that has needed discussion for some time. All you need to do is be receptive to making the positive change.

Wednesday 10th December

Exploring your options

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Sun from 10th to 12th December 2025. Exact 11th December

People often speak about being 'stuck in ruts.' It's interesting how many people are willing to accept that's how things must be. They convince themselves that a rut they find themselves in will require more effort than they're prepared to give to remove themselves from it, or they fear change that will come as a result of doing so.

You are being presented with an opportunity to instigate a change that will get you out of a rut that you may feel you're stuck in.

It's possible you can remove yourself from a tedious drama and, where your relationship with someone is concerned, introduce life where tedium is all too present. You have more choices than you thought you did and that's precisely what needs to be understood now.

Also on Wednesday

A storm in a teacup

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Pluto from 10th to 12th December 2025. Exact 11th December

We understand that the bark of some dogs is more of an issue than their bite. We also know how some people can talk incessantly or authoritatively but actually say very little.

Somewhere in your personal world, an annoying point of conflict is making itself known, or presence felt. It intends to ensure you take it seriously and won't take kindly to being ignored.

You, on the other hand, have the upper hand. While the issue is keen to ensure it receives the attention it deserves, you have a choice about how much of an issue you want it to be and how much of your time and attention you believe it deserves.

By all means, acknowledge the issue but see it for what it really is – a mere storm in a proverbial tea cup.

Also on Wednesday

Form a very helpful bond

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Ascendant from 10th to 13th December 2025. Exact 12th December

Some people thrive in their own company. They know what they like and like what they know. However, even those who feel no need to collaborate or seek advice from others succumb from time to time to the concept that much can be gained from syncing in some way or on some level with others.

In your personal world now, there's much to be gained from 'joining forces' with or allowing yourself to be drawn toward certain others - or one person in particular. If you're willing to let your guard down even briefly, then you'll find there is much enjoyment to be had and delightful progress to be made through one-on-one activity, negotiating or even putting yourself in someone else's shoes to understand them or a situation better in some way.

If you're struggling with a decision, then you won't have to look very hard to find someone willing to hear what it is you're struggling with, and a lovely bond could result from the adage 'two heads are better than one.'

Thursday 11th December

The truth needs respect

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mercury from 11th to 14th December 2025. Exact 13th December

We're sometimes accused of 'kidding ourselves.' We often have good reason to resent such a comment. After all, why would someone else be so quick to draw a conclusion about how they feel we've drawn an incorrect or inaccurate conclusion? Where your relationship world is concerned, you have a very good reason to believe you know the truth about something someone else is inclined to think you've grasped the wrong end of the proverbial stick about.

Stick with what you know to be right and real. The truth deserves respect now, and you're in a perfect position to support it, based on what your intuition is telling you.

Friday 12th December

Be flexible and spontaneous

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Mars from 12th to 15th December 2025. Exact 14th December

What is it 'they' say about best-laid plans? Of course, to achieve anything, we need a plan of some sort but sometimes, the benefits of spontaneity can be overlooked.

When we discover a plan goes awry or an unforeseen obstacle gets presented in our path, then our first reaction often involves frustration. In your personal world now, it is important you're willing to be adaptable. It's essential you don't view a change to an arrangement or situation you believed to be unchangeable as a setback or potential problem. See it instead as a gift.

An important romantic or relationship goal is within reach. Have faith in the fact that you're helped to achieve it, but the journey might have one or two pit stops along the way that you hadn't - or couldn't have - accounted for. The more willing you are to be spontaneous and flexible, the more you'll enjoy this particular ride – and the more progress you'll make.

Saturday 13th December

Reasons to be more than cheerful

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Venus from 13th to 15th December 2025. Exact 14th December

If we watch the news any night on TV or pick up a newspaper at any time, we're given plenty of reasons to believe that the world in which we live is far from the beautiful and peaceful place it was intended to be. With little effort, we can create numerous reasons to worry about anything or identify problems and difficulties.

It's very easy to overlook or ignore completely how beautiful the world in which we live truly is. Too many people regard life as a constant struggle instead of the precious gift it is. Have you reasons to look upon your personal world with such pessimism? Are your relationships with certain people or one person in particular less than ideal or how you'd like them to be?

Expect, very soon, to see real reasons to be grateful for all that is truly wonderful where your interactions with certain people are concerned. Prepare to be inspired even if those around you fail to see what you have to be so happy about!

Also on Saturday

Push is coming to shove

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Uranus from 13th to 16th December 2025. Exact 15th December

Somewhere in your personal world, 'push' is about to meet 'shove.' It is only a matter of time before both come together.

You have the option to wait and see what happens when these two collide. Like any collision, there's a very strong possibility you'll not find the experience pleasurable to view or be part of.

That's why it's important you see the signs, smell the coffee or read writing on the proverbial wall. You can bring about a change that will alleviate much of the potential stress or damage in a relationship by taking action before you're left with no alternative other than to accept what's likely to occur.

Take control and allow yourself to feel more powerful. You can do it and, when you do, you'll discover how powerful and influential you really are.

Monday 15th December

Pushing obsession aside

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Pluto from 15th to 17th December 2025. Exact 16th December

Something is fascinating you. Whatever it is, appears to matter a great deal to you. Why does it matter? The answer to that question has much to do with how much emphasis you're putting on it – and a seemingly strong desire you have to give it so much attention. In your personal world now, you're being pushed in a very distinct direction and to make a decision.

You're encouraged strongly to make a choice and, to do this, it's important you accept what or whom might have become an obsession and why you need to be more objective. To make progress, you need to curb a tendency to think of nothing else than the one issue or person that occupies so much of your thinking time.

This is a time to gain perspective and make decisions based on fact or at least what feels truly right and sensible and not be bullied into following a path of least resistance simply because it appears an easier or most prominent option.

Also on Monday

Shake off apathy

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Saturn from 15th to 17th December 2025. Exact 16th December

Imagine you're standing on the edge of a high diving board, peering down to the water below but have strong reservations about taking the plunge. Imagine as well that, behind you, a queue of impatient and more experienced divers wait for you to make up your mind about what you're going to do.

That analogy sums up a situation in your personal world now. You're clearly under pressure in some way to take action or make a decision yet it's important you are being pressured in the way you are because otherwise you won't make the decision or move you truly need to make.

You have a difficult dispute to solve or a complicated story to unravel yet, through a constant source of aggravation, aren't feeling inclined to consider a particular course of action. It's time to shake off apathy and seize a valuable opportunity. Like most opportunities, yours might be hidden within a perceived problem, but trust that the opportunity being presented to you now is very real.

Also on Monday

Getting yourself out there

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Ascendant from 15th to 17th December 2025. Exact 17th December

We live in a world governed nowadays by social media. Does communicating electronically make us sociable? Surely, there's more to be said about good old-fashioned face-to-face conversation yet technology today facilitates that in some ways.

You don't need to rely on communicating with phones, laptops or tablets to gain admiration from those who know you – or want to know you! You are in a superb position to increase your network of contacts in some way, and you probably won't have to look too hard to identify those who have a keen interest in a romantic sense.

Get yourself out there. Be willing to meet new people. The greatest romantic opportunities will come from interacting with others and the more it can be done on a face-to-face basis, the greater your chances are.

Wednesday 17th December

Repetition is not necessary

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal MidHeaven from 17th to 18th December 2025. Exact 18th December

Some television commercials can be extremely annoying. Companies who make commercials and those whose products or services they represent are unconcerned about this.

As far as they're concerned, they have a valid point to make and will make as often as they see fit until they're reassured an advertising campaign has been successful or budgets have run out.

They often fail to understand that their incessant intrusion does little more than discourage many of us from buying their products or services. Bear this in mind with a point you want to make now.

You might believe making a point repeatedly will result in the person or people you wish to influence succumbing, but this plan can backfire if you're not careful. You'll gain much support if you make your point sensibly, succinctly and sensitively.

Also on Wednesday

Faith restoration

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Mars from 17th to 19th December 2025. Exact 18th December

Sometimes, confidence is dented all too easily. We've all experienced a situation where we believe we can take on the world and any problem within it and then discover that all it takes is one unforeseen development to create a sense of fear or disbelief toward what we were so focused on originally. There are also times when we are willing to invest faith in something we cannot see or justify until we experience a similar crisis of faith.

In your personal world now, there is something you believed you were once very sure of. Now, it appears to have reservations about whatever-it-is. The good news is, very soon, your faith and confidence will be restored. The even better news is your faith and confidence look set to be higher and stronger than they were previously.

There is though, something you must do for this change to unfold. This involves bringing about a change in your romantic or emotional world that surrounds being less dutiful or beholden and being willing to inviting more joy into your world. Make that change, and you will soon be feeling rejuvenated and optimistic.

Thursday 18th December

Stepping up to the plate

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Uranus from 18th to 20th December 2025. Exact 19th December

Sometimes, we feel a need to instigate change for the sake of instigating change. Other times, we do this to send a clear message to certain people that we are in control of ourselves or situations when we believe perception exists otherwise. In your personal world now, there exists a need to create a 'mini-revolution.'

In some way, you have been restricted and held back for too long, and you're very aware of what has become unacceptable within a situation or arrangement. You're being granted an ability to express yourself now and while the urge to rebel is likely intensifying, so too is a perceived need to remove yourself entirely from an undesirable scenario.

Soon, what doesn't make sense will make sense. For now, trust how you're being challenged and all that appears awkward is helping you to re-evaluate everything. Once done, you will bring about the very change you've long wanted to see happen.

Friday 19th December

A boundary needs pushing

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Saturn from 19th to 21st December 2025. Exact 20th December

In what way - or ways - might you be feeling trapped or restricted now? Life always provides rules and restrictions, and we understandably opt to reject many in principle yet, in practice, we know we must adhere to or obey them. Sometimes though, it becomes necessary to push a boundary or restriction, and in your personal world now, that's precisely what you're being encouraged to do.

It's time to assess what you believe to be impossible or immovable and see how far you can exceed a particular expectation. It's not necessarily a case of focusing on what's missing in your relationship world but looking closely at what you do have available to you and how, through effort, imagination and a healthy dose of courage, you can improve significantly what you do have.

It's time to accept what - or who - you truly want and remove the idea of failure from any equation surrounding getting it or them. Be brave and willing to push your luck.

Tuesday 23th December

It is love that makes the world go around

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Venus from 23rd to 25th December 2025. Exact 24th December

People employed in the financial world often tell us that the past should not be a guideline for the future when investing. Anyone shrewd enough to consider investing in such companies is usually aware of that fact.

Money, they say makes the world go around and if we decide we need money or more of it, then there are options available to us or steps we can take that investment of effort will change.

What about love though? Can we bring about love or more love in our world by making a similar effort? There's enough money in the world for anyone who wants some or more of it but is there a finite amount of love available to us during our lifetimes? Prepare to discover how no such limit exists through being very aware of how loved you are.

Wednesday 24th December

Removing the window dressing

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Pluto from 24th to 26th December 2025. Exact 26th December

Beauty, we know, is skin deep. However, so much emphasis is put on making what we see so appealing. In the same way we know we shouldn't judge books by covers, you may be placing too much importance on soemthing in your emotional world that is not as valuable or as relevant as it seems.

If you want to achieve or attain something truly and deeply satisfying, then you need to care less about what doesn't deserve the levels of attention you appear keen to give it.

To bring about a much-needed change or improvement to a close connection, a tense or potentially difficult conversation needs to be had. You might even discover you possess the courage to say a few things you've been afraid to say or chose, for reasons known best to yourself, to keep hidden.

Provided you're willing to see an unsatisfactory or disguised situation for what it is, be resolute toward improving it in whatever way you deem fit and say what you know needs to be said from the depths of your heart, then you can be assured you will have nothing whatsoever to be apologetic or regretful about.

Also on Wednesday

Commanding respect

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 24th to 28th December 2025. Exact 26th December

If we want respect, we must command it. We need to be seen in the eyes of others as deserving of respect. You have an excellent opportunity now to gain respect in the eyes of certain others – or a certain person – but are likely to have to invest some effort to prove your worthiness of it.

This needn't require considerable effort on your part. An opportunity exists for you to take the lead in some way and through making clear what you need and why you need it, you could find more than one person responds positively - and will respect you for doing so!

Thursday 25th December

Avoiding carelessness

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Ascendant from 25th to 27th December 2025. Exact 26th December

Many forms of communication technology have something called 'spell checkers' installed. The fact that many of us receive messages and correspondence that clearly should have been spell checked before sending indicates this facility isn't used as often as it should be. Then, there is the tiny issue surrounding pressing a button to send a message that really ought not to have been sent or received by a particular recipient.

You can save yourself considerable frustration and potential embarrassment by ensuring whatever you're communicating has been thought through properly or checked thoroughly. You might not get a second chance to make a first impression.

Friday 26th December

Don't fear the worst

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Mars from 26th to 28th December 2025. Exact 27th December

We tend to regret what we don't do in life. Even when we're in the throes of worry or confusion about a decision we've made, rarely do we focus our concern on the decision itself.

It is what we fear the result will be or our belief that we've made a wrong choice that causes the most problems. Where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, you have taken action in some way and could feel a mistake has been made.

It's time for you to summon self-discipline, discrimination, and determination combined with a healthy dose of faith in the fact that what you have instigated can only be beneficial.

Saturday 27th December

You can fix what needs fixing

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Uranus from 27th to 29th December 2025. Exact 28th December

For us to 'fix' something, we must identify in what way or ways it's broken. In the same way a doctor cannot give a diagnosis or prescription without being clear what remedy is needed, we can only fix what needs fixing if we understand what needs fixing and why.

In your relationship world, a drama is unfolding. It is through knowing how a certain situation can be adjusted or rearranged that offers the greatest and most effective way to improve it.

Ignore the desire to be somewhere else. Removing yourself isn't the answer. The solution surrounds more meaning or depth given to a tired situation, and that's precisely what you can bring. Have faith in the fact that you can improve a love life scenario and time is on your side to achieve this.

Sunday 28th December

The answer is in the past

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Saturn from 28th to 30th December 2025. Exact 29th December

What makes someone an 'expert' at something? Is it the authoritative way in which they speak? Is it because their appearance reassures us that they know what they're talking about?

If we're told something enough times, then we start believing it – especially if what's told to us is something we tell ourselves! It's important you draw a conclusion based on personal, previous experience – not what someone is trying to convince you of.

Something from your past needs revisiting and re-examining now. To make a very positive change or bring an improvement to a special connection, all you need to do is accept that there is something you don't know or know enough about.

Whatever happened previously will help you identify this. Once you do identify it, you will begin to ask questions about something from your past that has confused you that will then lead to a very valuable discovery and a potentially wonderful development.

Also on Sunday

A meeting of like minds

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 28th to 31st December 2025. Exact 30th December

Confidence, we know, can be an attractive quality for someone to possess. We are drawn toward people who exude confidence and impress us with their 'make things happen' attitudes and beliefs.

Before we can feel confident though, we usually want to see some evidence of confidence having played a part in us achieving success previously. You're superbly placed now to benefit from a significant confidence boost that is bound to encourage you to look at what you have achieved and what else might be possible.

Personal success and social accomplishment are on offer. Through putting yourself in a proverbial spotlight, you will discover how much attention you attract and transforming your personal world through a linking of like minds is very possible.

Tuesday 30th December

Cooperation is key

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 30th December 2025 to 1st January 2026. Exact 31st December

Some people always insist on 'getting their way.' They tend to be largely unconcerned about what matters to others. All that does matter, it seems, is that they 'win' in some way. Such people want those they're trying to persuade to simply succumb and do what's demanded of them.

In your personal world now, you are likely adopting a completely contrary point of view in some way. You know that to get what – or whom – you want, you don't have to be heavy-handed. You need encourage peace and harmony, and you'll discover it will prevail over any tension.

To make progress on personal or romantic fronts, be seen to be approachable and willing to compromise where necessary. The key to progress now relies entirely upon cooperation, not obstruction.

Forecast for January 2026

Tuesday 6th January

Care with Clarity

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal MidHeaven from 6th to 7th January 2026. Exact 7th January

Back in medieval times, kings and queens had Court Jesters, individuals whose role involved entertaining monarchs. It was in Jesters' best interests to ensure the king or queen laughed when they were supposed to. Otherwise, Jesters often met with an untimely end. Think though, what might have happened if one poor Jester was sent to his death and the king or queen fell about laughing having 'got' a joke after it was too late. It's important that you make no assumption now about someone understanding a point you're keen to convey.

Don't take the fact that they're nodding as acceptance or understanding on their part. Take your time to ensure you're not misunderstood. Something this important is worth getting right.

Thursday 8th January

Bring it out into the open

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Pluto from 8th to 10th January 2026. Exact 9th January

People talk about skeletons residing in closets. They speak of issues being swept under carpets. There are always issues we prefer to keep hidden, but we know, in our hearts, when certain issues deserve to see the light of day. We owe it to ourselves and those closest to us to allow what needs to be brought out into the open to no longer be hidden under a veil of secrecy.

In your personal world, your attention is being drawn to a fact that must be faced. You can ignore it for a little while longer but be assured that, very soon, you will have to give it attention. When this happens, it will be good news.

Facing what needs to be faced will expose what has been kept secret for too long and cease to cause you to feel as if you're obliged to pretend you're comfortable in a situation that makes you feel otherwise. It's time to pursue an opportunity that you simply haven't felt was viable and, by finally doing so, you will achieve what or whom you truly desire - and deserve!

Also on Thursday

Cut the niceties and let truth reveal itself

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Pluto from 8th to 11th January 2026. Exact 10th January

Sometimes, we hear what people say but can't help wonder what it is they really mean. Other times, we're painfully aware of how easily some people can avoid discussing a particular issue.

There are also people who want to listen but fail to grasp the concept of real, meaningful communication.

In your personal world, you're likely retracing old ground where a discussion with a particular person is concerned. Where there has been little in the way of progress previously, it is through an urgent, pressing reason presenting itself now that a need to cut niceties and exchange truth exists.

It's time for you and you-know-who to 'come clean.' Believe it is best that this has happened later than not at all and it is not too late to have the discussion that needs to be had.

Also on Thursday

Equal terms

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Pluto from 8th to 11th January 2026. Exact 10th January

Are you feeling a need to prove yourself in some way? Or, in what way is someone expecting you to justify your position? An essential conversation or some level of debate or discussion to happen. There's a deal to be done and an agreement to be reached.

For you to truly benefit from this, you need to lose any belief that you are beholden, subservient or inferior to a partner or potential partner. Enter this discussion believing you have something valuable to say and offer. If you remain positive and sensitive, then restoring balance can bring an improvement in a love connection, where for some time, you have believed both were needed.

Saturday 10th January

A reward for being brave and sincere

Transiting Venus Squares your natal Mars from 10th to 12th January 2026. Exact 11th January

In your personal world, there is a problem you sorely want to resolve but could be struggling to settle. You're being asked to 'accept the impossible.' You want to give in to an indulgence of some sort yet are very aware of how common sense is dictating that you would be foolish to make any hasty or risky move.

Remember that we live in a world that rewards the brave and the sincere far more than it takes care of the cautious and unimaginative. It is time to take a courageous step towards achieving a dream.

It is time to be strong, proud, daring, ambitious and, above all else, confident. If you can manage all of the above, then various natural processes now unfolding will restore your faith and spur you on to make something wonderful, heart-warming and long lasting happen.

Sunday 11th January

Trust your hunches

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Neptune from 11th to 13th January 2026. Exact 12th January

Sometimes, we're our own worst enemies when it comes to being 'talked out' of doing something. We tend to ignore our intuition because we know what it's telling us is right and we struggle with hearing the truth at times. In your personal world now, a certain truth is emerging.

There is something you are feeling, about a person or situation that you cannot ignore. What you want, before taking any action are facts. You would prefer your decisions were based on logic rather than hunches.

It is important though, to trust what you're feeling. Acknowledge and respect what your hunches are telling you. When the truth does emerge, you will be able to say with confidence and honesty that you knew it already.

Also on Sunday

The power of imagination

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Uranus from 11th to 13th January 2026. Exact 12th January

What do we mean we say someone is 'imaginative' or 'creative'? We tend to associate such words with possessing artistic or musical abilities, yet there are many people who possess no writing, artistic or designing abilities who are blessed with potent imaginations.

Sometimes, to make progress when we feel we're struggling, we have no option other than to apply some creative thinking and, in your personal world now, that's precisely what you're being encouraged to do.

Through adopting an open mind and being willing to apply imagination, you're extremely well placed to set your personal, emotional or romantic life on a firmer, more meaningful - and hopefully less stressful – footing. To achieve this, you need to take a brave step into the unknown and, by applying imagination and creativity you're blessed with now, can achieve wonderful and heart-warming success.

Also on Sunday

Calm after the storm

Transiting Sun Squares your natal Mars from 11th to 13th January 2026. Exact 12th January

The interesting and helpful thing about most storms is, we have some idea they're coming. We're often given some degree of warning, even if that warning is at short notice.

In your personal world now, a storm is undoubtedly brewing, but it's one that you're very prepared for. You needn't be concerned about its strength or any likelihood of being blown off course.

Expect, once the proverbial skies clear, to see how safer and stronger you are. Where your relationships with certain people or one person, in particular, are concerned, you're about to see reasons why you don't have to be everywhere at once and going to great lengths to please or placate those who demand you should.

The one person who truly deserves effort you're prepared to give to please them is you. Once you return to focusing more on this, much in your world will become plain sailing, once again.

Also on Sunday

What you give, you'll receive

Transiting Venus Trines your natal Moon from 11th to 14th January 2026. Exact 13th January

Some people will always believe that showing emotion is a sign of weakness. Right now, in your personal world, your greatest asset is not strength but softness. It is this quality that needs nurturing within you now. It is important that you dip deeply into your reserves of compassion, tolerance, patience, and support.

Even if you feel you're reaching the end of your proverbial tether, by being sensitive and supportive, you will find your tether can stretch further than you thought it would.

It's a case of 'doing unto others as you would have them do unto you' and if there's a particular person you want to get closer to, then you'll discover they're likely to respond toward you with whatever you're offering them.

Also on Sunday

Step back…quietly

Transiting Mars Squares your natal Mars from 11th to 14th January 2026. Exact 13th January

Opinions, we know, are like certain parts of our anatomy – everyone has one. It is the way some people choose to voice their opinions, and how defensively they do so that causes the most problems between them and others.

The wrong way to do this surrounds conveying an 'I'm not going to back down on this matter' attitude, and that could be what you're inclined to do where your relationship another is concerned. To say friction between you and them is waiting for an opportunity to present itself is an understatement.

You can sidestep an argument and make real, tangible progress by counting to ten and refraining from responding in a way you-know-who is expecting you to respond. Be sensitive and as understanding as you can possibly be.

Monday 12th January

Look closely to see what's good

Transiting Venus Sextiles your natal Saturn from 12th to 14th January 2026. Exact 13th January

Imagine how dull life would be if we didn't have to do various things we didn't want to do. Where would the thrill of overcoming a challenge be? Where would we draw inspiration to seek new and exciting challenges that await us?

We can postpone some tasks or obligations that don't exactly excite or inspire us but regardless of what bores or daunts us; we can either endure discomfort surrounding what we have to do or find a way to see it as exciting - or even learn to love - whatever it is we dislike. In your personal world now, you might not be able to change an undesirable situation, but you can change your attitude toward it.

If you're willing to look closely at what is good in a situation you're inclined to believe is more tedious or uninspiring, then you will soon see it from a much more positive perspective.

Also on Monday

Push aside passion

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Neptune from 12th to 14th January 2026. Exact 13th January

Is there an invisible clock ticking away somewhere that makes you feel you're under unnecessary pressure? Perhaps the clock you're focused so intently on is far from invisible.

Regardless of pressure you might feel obliged to succumb to in an area of your personal world, take a moment to breathe deeply and make an effort to proceed slowly. By giving in to pressure now, you risk compromising your ability to make incisive and accurate judgments. This, in turn, is likely to cause you to prolong a process that needn't be dragged out.

It's fair to say you have strong feelings about a situation or individual. Powerful passions often create some level of confusion. Do your very best to push aside passion for the time being. What's needed is clarity and if you allow it to come, then it will. Once it does, you'll be much better placed to trust the new understanding and act on it wisely, not hastily.

Also on Monday

Embrace the chaos

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Uranus from 12th to 14th January 2026. Exact 13th January

Sometimes, when we become aware of a need to 'sort something out,' we discover there could be benefits to going above the call of duty and making a situation more chaotic or disrupted to sort it out properly.

The same can be said about an area of your personal world now. Allow chaos trying to present itself to do so. Embrace the unusual, the unpredictable or even what appears downright disruptive. We lead lives that tend to be very orderly and predictable. You're being encouraged to allow and accept disruption in your world now and look likely to be grateful for it.

It's time to alter a situation, arrangement or agreement that has been stale and static for too long. Be willing to invite some chaos and, once the proverbial dust settles, you look set to make more than one valuable discovery.

Tuesday 13th January

A valuable discovery is the catalyst to transforming a situation

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Pluto from 13th to 15th January 2026. Exact 14th January

We can be surrounded by many people but feel alone. This can be heightened enormously when we're struggling in some way and support we need from one or two people isn't forthcoming. This leaves us with having to tackle an issue singlehandedly and we understandably aren't usually over the moon to have to do so.

The good news is, you're very capable of tackling on your own what needs to be tackled. It is the discovery of a certain piece of information that will boost your confidence. Once done, you will feel confident enough to face certain issues or individuals you've feared facing. You'll be more inclined to bring out into the open what has been conveniently brushed under a proverbial carpet.

This new-found confidence, combined with real desire to bring about a significant change to a certain situation, will result in very positive and necessary transformation where you have long wanted to see it.

Also on Tuesday

Prepare for a 'Eureka Moment'

Transiting Sun Trines your natal Moon from 13th to 15th January 2026. Exact 14th January

Can you remember when you last experienced a 'Eureka Moment'?

We all have these from time to time; sudden moments of clarity that are always wonderful – and often timely – to receive.

In your personal world now, a moment of clarity is about to be experienced by you. Don't succumb to a temptation to assess certain yearnings or needs deeply. Trust that you feel what you feel because, in more than one way, what you feel suits you and you're being steered toward the attainment of a cherished personal goal.

First, you need clarity. Embrace the revelation winging its way to you and, when it arrives, you'll know precisely why it is right and what your next move should be.

Also on Tuesday

Trusting instincts in the absence of facts

Transiting Sun Sextiles your natal Saturn from 13th to 16th January 2026. Exact 15th January

When a need to be decisive presents itself, then the process tends to be considerably easier when we believe we have all or at least enough facts to assist with the decision.

If we don't have enough facts, then what happens? That depends on how urgently we must make our decision but, more often than not, we call upon our instincts to assist us.

In your personal world now, there exists a need for you to trust your deepest instinct in the absence of factual information. Take at face value to a point what you're seeing or are being encouraged to accept is real.

Far better progress will be made if you're willing to trust what you're telling yourself. Do that, and then pursue the decision that needs to be made with all your heart.

Also on Tuesday

Creating something special together

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Neptune from 13th to 16th January 2026. Exact 15th January

One interesting fact about talented people is, they are rarely talented at only one thing. Someone who is creative in an artistic sense can often possess skill or talents across a wide range of things artistic. When two creative people 'click', they often do so superbly.

Whether or not you believe yourself to be blessed with artistic or creative abilities, you have a fantastic opportunity begin or strengthen a relationship by focusing on what can be 'created' together. Stimulation and excitement is on offer now with someone who wants to create with you.

Look closely at who might fit that bill and you probably won't have to look as hard as you think you might.

Also on Tuesday

Putting your heads together

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Uranus from 13th to 16th January 2026. Exact 15th January

Two heads, we are told, are better than one. We also understand that many hands make light work. Fortunately, you and a certain person don't need help from others to make something special happen now.

The two of you can make something wonderful happen without intervention from others. But, for this to happen, you're going to have to put your heads together in some way.

Doing so will bring about an idea or revelation that will beg for your attention and bring about a change that will delight you.

Wednesday 14th January

Is a plan worthy of your efforts?

Transiting Mercury Squares your natal Mars from 14th to 16th January 2026. Exact 15th January

The word 'passion' has several uses and connotations. We also know when the time is right to invest energy in a plan or pursuit and it is the need to give your all to something combined with impatience or urgency that could be boosting passion in some way now.

Ideas, suggestions, and situations could be coming thick and fast now which may not be helping matters. Where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, you're likely to need to show restraint to avoid a confrontation or making an ill-thought-through proposal or suggestion.

Slow down and assess if what you're planning is deserving of energy you're inclined to give it. If it is, then give it your all and don't look back. If you have reservations, then trust they exist for a good reason.

Also on Wednesday

Desire for excitement

Transiting Mars Trines your natal Moon from 14th to 17th January 2026. Exact 16th January

What is stirring within you now? Might it be a desire for excitement? Are you aware of powerful or impulsive feelings trying to manifest from within? If the answer is 'yes,' then allow them to do so.

This is a time of powerful attraction and a need to address powerful urges. With either or both also comes a need to invest considerable energy. Allow a special connection to be improved or consolidated by what's creating intense feelings but make sure you balance assertiveness or impulsiveness with sensitivity.

Thursday 15th January

Reviving a dream

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Neptune from 15th to 17th January 2026. Exact 16th January

Dreams and aspirations never vanish or dissipate completely if we don't achieve them. Sometimes, newer ones take their place. Eventually, we discover that what mattered to us a long time ago remains important and become aware that we ought to give what once mattered our time and attention once again.

Where affairs of the heart or one special relationship are concerned, what or who once mattered greatly to you is becoming a priority again in some way. You have an opportunity to shift your focus to what - or whom – probably never left the realms of your mind and heart. This time, the dream could be more achievable or attainable.

Also on Thursday

Think it through

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Uranus from 15th to 17th January 2026. Exact 16th January

Sometimes, we feel inclined to cause a stir or create upheaval just to see what happens. We reach a point where we become bored with how predictable or devoid of opportunity a situation appears to have become and decide to shake things up a bit.

That's fine, provided we accept the consequences of doing so - and blame for it should fingers be pointed our direction! If you feel inclined to shake things up a bit in your relationship world, then feel free to do so. However, be aware that action will always cause a reaction and you will need to accept responsibility for the change you instigate. Be sure you genuinely want the change you'll bring before you take the action you're considering taking now.

Also on Thursday

A sprinkle of realism

Transiting Venus Opposes your natal Jupiter from 15th to 17th January 2026. Exact 16th January

Throughout our lives, we're encouraged by certain others not to get 'too carried away.' Such advice is often given by well-meaning folk who seem to think we are at risk of disappointment or being foolish. We learn from experience that if we set our sights slightly higher than what we want, we invariably end up getting what we want.

In your relationship world, balance is needed between overconfidence and realism. You are being given reason to be confident and optimistic. That's fine, provided you have both feet on the ground where certain aspirations are concerned.

Look closely at what you want to make happen and then apply a sprinkle of realism regarding realistic timescales. Provided what you want is right and appropriate, then it will come to you. Avoid any tendency to be unnecessarily forceful or overly determined.

Also on Thursday

Letting it all bounce off you

Transiting Mars Sextiles your natal Saturn from 15th to 18th January 2026. Exact 17th January

How much are you willing to endure now? Your toleration limits are quite high which, given the situation you are facing or are likely to be facing shortly where your relationship with a certain person is concerned, bodes well. However, you also know there is a right and wrong way to react to what's unfolding or hinting at unfolding now.

By adopting a 'keep calm' strategy, you stand to achieve much more than what the alternative offers. A loved one or potential partner might need reassuring that you intend to keep emotions or impulses in check. Be the one to keep a calm head and you'll do a superb job of keeping tension or confrontation at bay.

Friday 16th January

Communication is key

Transiting Mercury Trines your natal Moon from 16th to 17th January 2026. Exact 17th January

We're all blessed with instincts. We use them from time to time and, when we do, find that they provide us with interesting and, at times, valuable insight. If you're willing to use yours now, then you stand to gain insight into a situation that you may feel you're kidding yourself about.

You're not deceiving yourself, and your assessment of a situation and someone's involvement with it (or their motivation) is likely to be accurate. You and a certain person need to have an exchange of sorts, and this is likely to involve a tense and possibly emotional conversation.

Even if verbal dialogue isn't forthcoming, there is much you're able to learn now through subtle signs and signals. Provided you're willing to be open and share thoughts and feelings tactfully and sensitively, then a partner is likely to do the same. Collaborating in this way is essential with bringing a helpful and timely improvement.

Also on Friday

A love life through loving life

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Sun from 16th to 18th January 2026. Exact 17th January

Is it your love life that you would like to see significant improvement within – or might it be your 'love of life' that could do with an injection of optimism and energy? You're being given an exceptional chance now to put your emotional or romantic life on a firmer, more meaningful and hopefully less stressful footing.

Through your increased ability to love life, you will be well placed to get along much better with a certain person who means the world to you or, through simply being yourself, attract a special person into your world.

All you need to do is take a small but courageous step in the right direction. To be guided by that, you need only have faith in the fact that you're being helped in every way possible.

Also on Friday

Let your inner voice enthuse you

Transiting Mercury Sextiles your natal Saturn from 16th to 18th January 2026. Exact 17th January

Sometimes, for an easier life, we can be a bit too quick to simply agree with someone else because we don't believe we have the energy, inclination or ability to disagree with them. Because enthusiasm can be infectious, we sometimes believe it to be easier to latch on to someone else's enthusiasm for something rather than find our own reasons for being fired up about pursuing something.

Before you allow yourself to be influenced by someone's enthusiasm for a plan or arrangement, consider what your inner voice is telling you.

You don't need to follow in ways you believe you must. You can take the lead and are right to trust your own judgment about something. Take a moment to step back and make a decision on your own without pressure coming from you-know-who.

Saturday 17th January

Pleasurable journeys or conversations await

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Mercury from 17th to 19th January 2026. Exact 18th January

There are some journeys we embark upon that we anticipate problems or delays with and find ourselves relieved when we don't encounter either. There are some conversations we brace ourselves for, expecting them to be confrontational and feel relieved when we discover our fears were unfounded.

Such relief is available to you now, and your personal world can benefit enormously from smoothness on offer where travel or communication (possibly both) are concerned. This is a time of pleasurable interaction so don't hesitate to call on certain others for help if you feel you need it or be willing to help them.

Discussions rarely have the chance to go as smoothly as those you're likely to have now, so say what you want or need to say. Have that exchange. You look likely to be both pleased and relieved that you did.

Also on Saturday

Avoid going to extremes

Transiting Sun Opposes your natal Jupiter from 17th to 19th January 2026. Exact 19th January

Do you need a telephone box to get changed in? Or is your superhero suit something you wear beneath your clothing to make yourself available to save the day at a second's notice?

You could, at this time, believe yourself to be superhuman and inclined to reply and respond to cries for help from certain quarters or a particular person. Some of these might be genuine but be assured that some of them are not.

Your judgment of a situation in your personal world could be regarded as extreme. You could convince yourself that a seemingly extreme situation requires extreme measures. It's important you accept your limitations. It's not your responsibility to go to great lengths to prove a point or yourself in some way.
Relax and accept that a more relaxed and softer stance will be much more beneficial to you and others.

Sunday 18th January

Keep your Wish List simple

Transiting Mercury Opposes your natal Jupiter from 18th to 20th January 2026. Exact 19th January

We're sometimes told to be 'careful what we wish for.' Rarely do any of us make wishes flippantly or without some level of consideration. If we believe something is worth wishing for, then it gets added to the list because we have at least one reason to believe we want it.

In your relationship world now, you are easily influenced but what you're expecting is likely to happen – so expect the best! Don't allow yourself to be influenced negatively.

It is important though that your expectations are reasonable. Don't get carried away with too many ideas about what you want or what might make your world vastly better. Focus on what you know you want, need and why you want and need it. That message alone will help to ensure you attain it.

Also on Sunday

A precious gift is on offer

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Sun from 18th to 20th January 2026. Exact 19th January

Customer Service counters in stores are often busy with people returning unwanted items. Sometimes, some of what it is returned are unwanted gifts.

Perhaps, if the recipient of the gift allowed more time to see its relevance or usefulness, they wouldn't have been quite so quick to dismiss it.

In an area of your personal world now, you're being presented with a gift of some sort, but this is unlikely to take the form of something in wrapping paper bound with ribbon. In fact, it's likely you won't see what you're being presented with as a gift at all and could be inclined to see it as an obstacle, setback or something unwanted.

If you're experiencing the latter, then it's important to look closely at what important lesson is being made available to you or what – or whom – you're being encouraged to move on from.

Embrace understanding, clarity, and appreciation of what and who truly matters in life coming your way now. As far as gifts go, receiving all of the above is precious and will ultimately be something you'll be forever grateful for.

Monday 19th January

An essential moment of clarity

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Sun from 19th to 21st January 2026. Exact 20th January

Something has become complicated. It has probably been complex for some time but what you're about to discover is how uncomplicated it really is. This is due to two things happening.

The first surrounds you applying imagination and determination to get to the bottom of whatever-it-is or at least be prepared to look at it and explore it in ways you may have been unwilling to do of late. The second involves your confidence rising as a result and a clear mind attained as a result of that.

Where your relationship with a certain person is involved or how you would like it to be, clarity on a new and much-needed level is coming and so too is an opportunity to make something wonderful happen.

Tuesday 20th January

Seeing the light

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Mercury from 20th to 22nd January 2026. Exact 21st January

Are you familiar with the phrase 'Eureka Moment'? We all experience them from time to time and usually rejoice in the fact that a moment of clarity has brought about a much-needed revelation or insight.

You're being helped to see a certain way forward where a situation between you and someone else is concerned and what should happen next. Interestingly though, the more insight and understanding you gain, the more questions you feel inclined to ask. Try to keep these at bay, at least for the time being.

There are implications surrounding what you're discovering now but don't underestimate how powerful your powers of persuasive communication are. You won't struggle to share what intrigues and fascinates you.

Also on Tuesday

Clarity is coming

Transiting Sun Conjuncts your natal Mercury from 20th to 22nd January 2026. Exact 21st January

Coming developments in your world will do much to please you. Where you have been focused intently on a complex issue and trying to understand the implications of it, you're about to discover what you believed to be complex is more straightforward than you thought.

As your confidence returns and you begin to apply imagination and ingenuity to your current relationship issue, you will soon be able to distinguish between what truly matters and needs attention and what doesn't.

Clarity, in one form or another, is coming. Give it a chance to arrive and, when it does, you'll soon find yourself blessed with the energy you'll need make happen what your heart dearly wants to see happen.

Also on Tuesday

Curb your enthusiasm

Transiting Mars Opposes your natal Jupiter from 20th to 23rd January 2026. Exact 22nd January

The word 'passion' can be used in several ways. There are the obvious connotations, but sometimes, we're driven by passion in ways that make us impulsive or hasty, and it is your impulsiveness and hastiness surrounding action you appear determined to take that needs to be reined in now.

If you're planning on standing up for yourself in some way, then you'd be well advised to wait a little bit longer before doing so, The chances are high that you could end up taking a contested issue to an extreme and making it unnecessarily complicated. Channel your passion into less offensive and much more interesting or pleasurable ways!

Wednesday 21st January

Counting chickens…

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Sun from 21st to 24th January 2026. Exact 23rd January

'Trust me.' We hear people say this to us and others constantly. We can't help but feel some level of reassurance that such people can be trusted but can also be aware of how we ought to be wary or cautious in some way.

The issue in your relationship world doesn't concern trust or lack of it. It concerns a need to address why you or someone close are so very certain about a particular outcome. It may be more sensible to be a bit more realistic and at least allow room for spontaneity to alter what you believe to be solid or immovable. That will create a much better and necessary environment to make progress or bring the improvement you're keen to bring.

Saturday 24th January

Time to speak up

Transiting Mars Conjuncts your natal Mercury from 24th to 27th January 2026. Exact 25th January

to find the right words or choose the right time to convey what we believe needs to be said. This makes an already potentially stressful situation more stressful.

When we know we cannot put off any longer the need to make our point, we accept we must take the initiative to do so. That's what you are capable of doing now. You're able to engage in necessary communication with a special individual. Trust that what needs to be said can be said clearly and coherently. You can bring a tangible and pleasing improvement by allowing words to flow effortlessly and underpinning with a tiny bit of passion might do the trick, too!

Thursday 29th January

A fair deal needs doing

Transiting Mercury Conjuncts your natal Venus from 29th to 31st January 2026. Exact 30th January

Negotiation should always be a two-way process. If done properly, negotiation should result in both sides believing they have gained and reached a mutually satisfactory result.

Some people believe that negotiation must involve one side 'getting one over' the other or hoodwinking them in some way.

Where you and someone else are concerned, there is something to be negotiated, and an agreement needs to be reached. If what is discussed is discussed fairly, then both you and someone else could benefit – or profit – enormously from the process.

Also on Thursday

Something beautiful wants to be created

Transiting Venus Conjuncts your natal Venus from 29th January 2026 to 1st February 2026. Exact 31st January

Some artists blend paints blend to create a dazzling and beautiful spectacle. Other paints, when blended, don't appear to come close to creating anything as eye-catching. Experienced artists know how to achieve specific hues through applying a dab of one and a dollop of another and can take pride in the fact that they've probably created something that can't be purchased in any store.

In your personal world now, you have a fantastic opportunity to create something unique and, without putting too fine a point on it, beautiful. Far less effort will be required on your part to reach agreements or have helpful discussions or meetings.

Be willing to experiment. Be receptive to exploring the depth of a feeling. If you can, then you and certain others – and one person in particular – can gel gloriously and enjoy progress of the most heart-warming variety.
