Leo

Clear your list of to-do tasks this morning as early as you can, Leo. That way, you’ll free yourself to enjoy the rest of the day. Chances are you may be shopping. If so, there are bargains to seek out and find. Alternatively, digging behind the scenes comes up trumps. Call me to hear when to avoid a family dispute.

Aries

You know where you stand right from the word go this morning in relation to a certain someone, so now you can make decisions with confidence. Pour your energies into household tasks later in the day when domestic involvement and pursuits will especially please. Call me to hear when to avoid money running through your fingers like water.

Taurus

It’s best foot forward today and at a fairly fast gallop, too! Solid and practical describes the way you prefer to work and you’ll get the best results by applying that precise, careful expertise to whatever task you have at hand. But make time to enjoy yourself this evening, too. Call me to hear when to avoid a domestic argument.

Gemini

A firm approach is what it takes this morning to get the show on the road. Whether it involves the children, the family, the home or the garden, there’s a project that, with focused effort, you can progress and complete. Better get the shopping in – people are on the way. Call me to hear when you must watch what you eat.

Cancer

You’re determined to get your house in order today, so start as you mean to continue. Catch up with your correspondence, too, and write or call to people with whom you’ve been out of touch. But as well as reconnecting, it’s also a time for farewells. Call me to hear when to avoid throwing good money after bad.

Virgo

Being level-headed is par for the course for a Virgo like you. So when it comes to money this morning, you’re right on the button. While the frantic pace at work has died down for the summer, you’ve allowed things to slide. Here’s your chance to get right back on track. Call me to hear when you’re in danger of overtaxing your system.

Libra

Decisions have to be made. But if you apply yourself first thing, you’ll find you’re in the right frame of mind to get jobs done. Remember: it’s the early bird that catches the worm. Work-wise, the pressure is on. It’s what happens in the wings that counts today. Call me to hear how to avoid being the one who picks up the tab.

Scorpio

On the one hand, all you want to do is tuck yourself away in a quiet corner and rest. Well, you’ve been active so if anyone deserves to down tools and escape for some well-deserved TLC, it’s you. On the other hand, you’re antsy, and an old adventure calls. Call me to hear when you mustn’t break the rules.

Sagittarius

If you need advice, seek out a professional with cast-iron credentials. If you’re working on a group event, err on the side of the tried and trusted. If you’re investing, go for traditional and blue chip. Old friends are your best friends today, Sagittarius. Call me to hear when you shouldn’t make that trip.

Capricorn

Organization, efficiency, discipline – well, come on! It’s what gets the job done and no-one does it better than you! Whatever you put your mind to – whether it involves holiday bookings, training arrangements or financial affairs – you’ll achieve with the stamp of authority today. Call me to hear when a friend lets you down.

Aquarius

Budgets, audits, personal finances? This is the day to take another look at your accounts and put your paperwork in order. It’s a favorable day, too, for rooting out information and looking for lost items. Travel may be slow or problematic first thing. Have patience! Call me to hear when you’re caught between a rock and a hard place.

Pisces

If you’ve been clever with your cash, you’ll be pleased to see some moderate but satisfying growth. You’re full of plans on how to spend your money and using any extra on special treats. With love, fun and recreation in mind, a shopping trip, day out or romantic date might just fill the bill. Call me to hear when to be extra cautious on the road.
