OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today. 

ARIES

March 21 to April 20

TRUSTING yourself to learn is Mercury’s gift to Aries today – so instead of having doubts, start any reading or practical test with an open heart and a store of confidence.

Maybe you feel changing in love is not in your skillset, but you could be proved wrong when you try.

Single? A good friend has great advice.

 TAURUS

April 21 to May 21

Jupiter’s contribution to your cash chart is the ability to see beyond today, and feel good about tomorrow.

Instead of focusing on where you feel you’ve gone wrong, expect to get things right – and make a key move by tonight.

The more Venus pushes passion, the more you relax, so let the love planet lead you to bliss.

GEMINI

When someone unexpected shares their personal resolutions, you can see a place in their future for yourself – but you need to do something sooner rather than later.

Just strolling, or scrolling, through tempting shops draws your eye to a bargain – even if no one else notices it.

The luck factor spins a silver wheel.

CANCER

June 22 to July 22

This is a day for digging deep and letting yourself be vulnerable.

What feels like an unbreakable barrier can suddenly crack when you admit you need help, or accept some advice.

If past bonds have not served you well, now you see a way to plan a future free of them.

The sun warms a “G” team.

LEO

July 23 to August 23

You are the sign of total togetherness today, with intuition from the moon plus the personal fire of Mars.

So joining together need not mean giving up more than you want, or need to.

When casual chat turns towards a business proposal, get in line, fast.

Passion is so warming – with room for forgiveness.

VIRGO

August 24 to September 22

Thinking about your health as your business can clear your mind of opinions and advice that keeps you stuck.

Yes, you can make that move forward today, but it must be on your terms.

The warm embrace of Venus boosts self-love to help you appreciate your value, just as you are.

Luck and cash both centre on “77”.

But inside, make sure you match pleasing others with pleasing yourself.

SAGITTARIUS

November 23 to December 21

Mercury’s position in your sign has been pushing you to think more, and act less on impulse – and today this can pay off.

Even when your first instinct is to leap, you have the mental power to resist, and spend longer on research.

In a family, this leads to strong choices.

With love, you can start again, and start better.

AQUARIUS

January 21 to February 18

The moon’s instincts are strongest in your sign today, and bring you the ability to see through excuses or a mask to find true feelings.

Even when these are a surprise, perhaps linked to someone a generation away, you can work with them well.

Venus leaves your sign tomorrow, so say key love words now.

February 19 to March 20

Deep in a dream you keep having is the key to the future you need – and this may be totally different to the one you think you want.

Today you get the chance to explore this more deeply and to make a practical plan.

In love? A secret doubt may be more obvious than you think.
