Our world is rapidly changing, and like this week’s birthday boy Mick Jagger sings you can’t always get what you want. But with Mercury meeting Mars and Venus in Virgo you are likely to get what you need…
ARIES: Aries have an ongoing tug of war between personal creativity and the group dynamic, but this week works via compromise rather than travelling the lone road. Saturn in Libra succeeds through cooperation, so do the flexible, bendy dance of negotiation and accommodation as gracefully as you can.
TAURUS: This week it’s worthwhile investigating what new technologies have to offer. Opinions will differ and you’ll get plenty of exercise dealing with ego trips, but it’s worth persevering because someone who could be extremely financially helpful is likely to be one of those trippers.
GEMINI: You’re the zodiac’s master multi-taskers, but this accident-prone week needs you taking care on the road – and even more on the tongue. People want plenty of attention but they’re so not into criticism, so either find something to admire or hold your fire.
CANCER: Everyone’s prickly and reactive this week, not just Cancerians. But you could still get heaps of overdue stuff and unfinished business dealt with so long as you don’t promise more than you can comfortably deliver, because expectations are high and cancellations won’t be taken lightly.
LEO: A peak week for your cat majesty even in these troubled times, so go somewhere glamorous, buy something gorgeous or do something celebratory to keep your spirits buoyant during ongoing upheavals and uncertainties. Just don’t engage in any regrettable outbursts which could jeopardize your future success.
VIRGO: Mercury moving into Virgo wants to talk about what needs fixing, but you’d be wise to edit before you utter: listen, process, refine … and then speak. That said, this week’s upside brightens and heightens your star quality, attracting hot new admirers to Virgoville.
LIBRA: Mars marches into Libra this week to back Saturn in setting up a series of relationship reality checks to address unfinished business in partnerships past and present, with a view to fine tuning the balance between personal enjoyment and responsible commitment to others.
SCORPIO: This week pits ambitious plans against constraints, responsibility against rebellion and duty against the urge to do things differently. Rather than get upset at what you’re not able to achieve just now, or angry at restrictions, look for alternatives that are workable. Enjoyable alternatives.
SAGITTARIUS: This week reboots any minor lack of social liveliness, with planetary energy in the sign of self publicizing urging you to showcase yourself and/or your ideas by dressing to impress: present aspects admire a touch of flair, appreciate a bit of cheek and applaud bold moves.
CAPRICORN: Humanity’s definitely going through a rough patch at the moment, so don’t be surprised if you’re feeling a tad sombre and despondent – you’ll find solutions are there if you think outside the square. Also that treating yourself tenderly will immeasurably improves the tenor of your week.
AQUARIUS: This full-on week opens a window of opportunity for implementing radical relationship rearrangements in spite of personal differences. Try to relax a little when you notice you’re becoming stubborn and this week could take care of a whole lot of seemingly insoluble business.
PISCES: This week helps you develop progressive new ways in which partnership patterns are played out. The waves of change affecting you aren’t superficial, so direct your energy where it serves you best, moment to moment. And listen to your intuition, which is second to none.
