GEMINI

May 22 to June 21

Ambition that has been simmering in the background of your life heats up and you overflow with potential goals, all of them good.

But it is the one that takes you to a new place in terms of learning that you should look into first.

If passion is offering something new, ask yourself why you resist. Is it pride or fear?

CANCER

June 22 to July 22

The sun turns your travel and truth sector into a chart hotspot and two or more key journeys are back on your horizon.

You also realise you are not being yourself in a relationship and are ready to put this right over the next few weeks.

Single? Love links to clocks striking, counting down – or both.

LEO

July 23 to August 23

You have spent long enough thinking, now the sun urges action to turn yourself into the person you know you could be.

If a fitness project fires you up, results can be fast and willpower strong.

If you would like to fill study gaps, stop making excuses and start making applications. Love changes to fit your needs.

VIRGO

August 24 to September 22

The sun shines a light on your connections and co-operation chart. For the next few weeks you are a brilliant go-between.

If what started as a friends or family temporary fix has become a habit, now you can start to change it.

Creative plans take off and “D” claims a key role. Passion starts with a giggle.

LIBRA

September 23 to October 23

You can expand a food or health interest towards the business world. But you need to take your own abilities seriously and stop putting yourself down, even in fun.

You have sun strength and charisma on your side – use it or lose it. If you tend to laugh off love gestures, this is your day to take them seriously.

SCORPIO

October 24 to November 22

There is a creative sun surge in your chart that opens your mind to dazzling possibilities, encouraging you to reach higher.

This can be linked to passion, learning or family life. If single, stop endlessly rehearsing words and just say them.

The moon and Mars make you bolder, especially in the bedroom.

SAGITTARIUS

November 23 to December 21

Your sense of who you are and where you belong is spotlighted by the sun.

This turns you back towards a personal path you missed and helps make the most of family and friendship as they are, not as you wish they could be.

If single, a jokey gift, message or video is sent to you with such a serious love wish.

CAPRICORN

December 22 to January 20

The sun takes over your communication zone and frees up questions and answers that have been on hold for at least a year.

Now the voice you use to talk to yourself can be kinder but more assertive. You are primed for action.

Your love self is ready to rebel and partners will adore your surprising style.

AQUARIUS

January 21 to February 18

Get ready to bask in new sun warmth and energy in your zone of spending, saving and how you value people and experiences.

You appreciate what you have, yet also plan ahead so well for changes that include and reward everyone you love.

Cash or passion prizes can come so close when a deadline is extended.

PISCES

February 19 to March 20

As the sun sizzles in your sign, you can feel your genuine self glowing brighter.

Ambition flares and you spot opportunities everywhere you go, in person and online. “S” initials seal the deal.

You have extra energy to give to love or looking for love – so start today and get the response you deserve.
