OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died in 2023 but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today.

ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

12

As the strong connection impulse of Mercury turns direct again, you are ready to reach out, and solidify, or perhaps dissolve, certain bonds.

Plus your creative way with words can get you noticed, in your everyday life.

So don’t hold anything back.

Your own inner Saturn strength can be challenged by Uranus, but in one-off ways that enrich your future – never doubt you’ve got this.

TAURUS

APR 21 – MAY 21

12

Soon as you start to realise how well you read other people’s minds you can set this to work – and play.

Friends and family may have tried to hide certain information but now it’s yours to do with as you will.

This is a week to be true first to your own heart.

If you’re in love, a connection must be more than skin-deep – so is it?

Single?

A charming Gemini changes everything.

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

12

Your ruler Mercury takes a new positive path, pushing past a set of rules or restrictions you sense are so unfair.

Being prepared to be disliked may be the price you have to pay for promoting your own skills – but you can find a brilliant balance here.

Your role in a group is changing, this must be on your own terms.

Passion-wise, when you show you value love, it will value you too.

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

12

A money puzzle that may have tied you in knots for weeks can suddenly seem simple this week.

You trust yourself to understand facts and figures, instead of setting up inner blocks.

With Venus love and Jupiter luck both personalised for Cancer, you only need to see or hear a chance once to know it’s right for you.

A career dream can be closer to reality by the weekend.

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

12

A fresh, feisty boldness in how you express yourself is the legacy of Mars in your chart – plus this week the connection of Saturn and Uranus bodes so well for groups who want to travel or otherwise have adventures together.

Choose companions with care – are they truly Team Leo or just playing the game?

Hidden love is ready to declare itself.

The luck factor links to natural tastes.

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

12

Words you may have assumed fell on stony ground can suddenly bloom into productive talks – and bring a personal goal so close.

This is your week to rate what you have, rather than regretting what you don’t.

In love terms, this approach could turn the tide.

If you’re single, old memories are good but making new ones, perhaps with “R” is your chart theme of the week.

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

12

Letting yourself relax Into being, and communicating, in a more direct manner, sets up intriguing matches and meetings this week.

And even in fields you are unfamiliar with, you can 100% fake it till you make it.

Freedom at home can come from loosening ties rather than hugging people/partners too tightly.

As Saturn and Uranus bond, you learn so much better as part of a team.

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

12

Seeking a work space that satisfies your secret self may feel a big ask – until this week.

Your chart combination of drive, determination and unique inspiration is all geared up to showcase your true skills.

And a time of feeling like an imposter can end.

The person you have least in common with can be the one who seizes your heart.

All loved-up?

Promises power forward.

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

12

Your ideas on their own are so special – but true success can sizzle when you join your thinking up with others.

So do seek out a group that shares your vision, but also challenges you in some productive ways.

As the mind planet spins forward again, the top of your chart clears and a career goal shines bright.

This time, do stay focused.

Luck and love both link you to “M” dates.

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

12

The moon may highlight weak spots in a home set-up – but this is what you need.

For too long you have simply gone along with plans, even if you disagree.

Now you can say your piece, make your suggestions.

Supporting, without judging, is your friendship mantra, and this can also spill over into love bonds.

A trip that’s been open-ended can gain from a clear end point.

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

12

You may have held back the more controversial aspects of a plan or a promise – but this week your chart combination of Saturn and Uranus encourages you to share everything.

This is the only way to be sure a deal is 100% genuine and good to go.

How you make time in your life for relationships is so important, as certain people do need to feel more seen, and valued, by you.

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

12

The right way to answer a work question may not be the quickest or easiest way – but the courage of your convictions is so strong now in your chart.

You can cope so much better with voices that shout louder, or just refuse to be silenced.

Money and home make a mix that looks back a few months, and finds forgotten documents or tickets.

Love is full of fun, and “R” flirtation.
