Cancer

Focusing on only one job and getting it done and finished is much more productive – and more satisfying – than juggling six or seven and not completing any of them. But it looks like the latter applies today. Partnerships are iffy but your social life comes alive. Call me to hear when a purchase is a waste of money.

Aries

People are all over the place today, Aries, and just not where you expect them to be. Trying to get an agreement in place? It’s one of those quirky days when the opposite to what you’re expecting will happen. Go with the flow and leave decisions for another day. Call me to hear when you can’t trust your luck.

Taurus

This is an ideal day to wriggle out of a commitment, meeting or job you don’t want to do. You won’t lose face if you make your excuses and, as a matter of fact, you’ll probably find that things work out to everybody’s advantage. Local events please this weekend. Call me to hear when a domestic plan falls through.

Gemini

Long to-do list? However, it’s one of those days when you could end up going round and round in circles and when little actually gets ticked off. But that’s not the point today. The point is, even if you end up doing nothing, at least you’ll enjoy it. Call me to hear how to avoid a plan going awry.

Leo

Stay sharp, Leo. Things today seem to vanish into thin air and you could end up hunting all day for that letter, file or important document. Meetings to arrange? Save yourself the trouble – they’ll only be rescheduled later on. Catch up with news, neighbors and social calls. Call me to hear when you must keep your eye on the blind spot.

Virgo

Keep watch on your goods and possessions today. It’s so easy to mislay your keys, leave your coat on the bus or forget your shopping in the office. Money? Check your change carefully in the shops and look out for banking errors. Plan a nice weekend trip. Call me to hear when quiet research turns up something interesting.

Libra

The ‘silly season’ the newspapers call it – a time when not much of any significance is happening. Astrologically, today is one of those days and the best you can do is just keep the ball rolling until tomorrow. Plan yourself a sociable weekend. Call me to hear when people are unreachable.

Scorpio

Feeling out of the loop, needing time to yourself? It’s one of those days when you may be low in energy. So, thank goodness for Friday! If you’re taking the day off, all the better. If not, make time for fact-finding. Quiet thinking behind the scenes is valuable. Call me to hear when people in authority are unhelpful.

Sagittarius

It’s one of those frustrating days when no-one’s where they’re supposed to be. As long as you’re not trying to fix up social engagements, spending time with others can be most companionable and enjoyable. Don’t lend anyone your stuff – you’ll never see it again! Call me to hear when to avoid launching new products or ideas.

Capricorn

Given today’s star line-up, be aware that whatever you’re told, whatever you’re promised and whatever is decided probably won’t materialize. So take what happens with a large pinch of salt and stay flexible. Deal with finances and plan a nice weekend. Call me to hear when you shouldn’t make that investment.

Aquarius

There’s confusion in the air today, Aquarius. If you’re traveling, double check details and timetables. Does your car need attention? Give it a once-over before you set off. Planning a holiday? Chances are, better bargains are on offer tomorrow. Wait until them before you book. Call me to hear when an agreement comes to nothing.

Pisces

Be alert to financial mistakes today, Pisces, and to misinformation. It’s definitely one of those days when you must keep your wits about you and if in doubt, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Worried about a loved one? Tomorrow’s brighter prospects will blow the clouds away. Call me to hear when you’re advised not to start anything new.
