YOUR WEEK IN THE STARS

YOUR WEEK IN THE STARS
WEEK BEGINNING MONDAY 14 DECEMBER, 2009.

SAGITTARIUS November 22 – December 20
This hardly seems a time for reflection. Still, try to steal at least an hour each day before Wednesday’s new moon. The insights make it easier to relinquish certain cherished arrangements. As you examine intriguing developments, you realise these could be your dreams come true, although in a different form than you’d anticipated.
CAPRICORN December 21 – January 18
You’re not a control freak. But you dislike entrusting elements of your life to anybody who you don’t really respect. However, at the moment they’re in charge. This is best, since with an eclipse at the end of the year, you’ll want to rearrange things. What others decide could lead you to new worthwhile territory, as you’re about to discover.
AQUARIUS January 19 – February 17
The obstacles you’re facing are forcing you to say farewell to certain arrangements you regard as cornerstones of your existence. With the bountiful Jupiter meeting Neptune, the planet of transformation, on the 21st, things won’t stay the same. The more prepared you are to explore the revolutionary developments coming your way, the better.
PISCES February 18 – March 19
It’s difficult to say whether it’s family, work or simply the powers that be which are reshaping your life. It might be all of them. Tempting as it is to battle changes, they’re only part of a far-reaching pattern of change. This will be of such benefit that you’ll wonder why you questioned it. By the 21st, you’ll know exactly what you’ll have to celebrate.
ARIES March 20 – April 18
This will not be a straightforward week. Make plans knowing that and instead of being surprised, reorganise what you’ve arranged – you’ll view changes as a chance to make any necessary improvements. While things may not move as swiftly as you’d intended, it’s worth being patient, since the results will be far better than expected.
TAURUS April 19 – May 19
There’s talk of the amazing opportunities promised by next week’s stunning alliance between the bountiful Jupiter and Neptune. Between now and the time things are settled, the circumstances you’re dealing with are bound to change several times. They raise questions that are better explored now, before you solidify arrangements.
GEMINI May 20 – June 20
While many things are going brilliantly, that’s no guarantee you’ll be able to sidestep persistent dilemmas. Acknowledge that plans must be taken in stages and accomplish what’s possible each day. Then turn your attention to the welcome, if unsettling, breakthroughs in the lives of those closest, which result in joint celebrations.
CANCER June 21 – July 21
You may be able to understand why certain changes are being made, but that doesn’t mean you’re happy about them. Register your complaints but stop there, since others are aware of the impact but are in no position to alter them. Fortunately, these are offset by more welcome events.
LEO July 22 – August 21
If you can acknowledge problems without turning them into a personal cause, you’ve overcome this week’s biggest challenge. Unfair as these seem, the stunning changes ushered in on the 21st, could render these unimportant. Object if you must. Then focus on offers around you, some of which will turn into something utterly astonishing.
VIRGO August 22 – September 21
It’s nearly two months since Saturn departed your sign and you’re beginning to experience benefits from the time and effort you invested in certain plans, projects or people. The payoffs continue, particularly next week. Knowing that, don’t be surprised if other arrangements suddenly fall apart. They’re only clearing the way for what’s coming.
LIBRA September 22 – October 22
Although you’d like decisions that influence your work or lifestyle settled, hastily made plans only complicate things. Discuss your options but keep things loose. This ensures that when certain arrangements get better, probably early next week, you’ll know enough to take things further, but will be free to negotiate for exactly what you want.
SCORPIO October 23 – November 21
Sometimes opportunities are just that. But those you’re now dealing with demand that you reconsider your views on several arrangements. In some, you realise that actually, you’ve benefited. And in those you’re not happy about, you recognise what you learned has equipped you to approach wisely the intriguing ideas currently coming your way.
