Horoscopes: 14-20 September




A family mystery has occupied your thoughts for a while now – perhaps a loved one is behaving oddly or something (or someone) has gone ‘missing’. You seek an answer and a clue reveals itself this week as you ferret and dig. This arises from your patient persistence in not being deflected by flannel or other people’s psycho-dramas.

Much hinges on getting people to bend to your will – but you’re wise to the risks. If others think you’re being manipulative or pushy, they’re likely to put up barriers, just to teach you a lesson. So, make the most of a chance to articulate an argument and influence a group – all the signs are you can pull this one off.

The fear of anything tends to cloud judgement. This has been your problem for some time vis-à-vis money, or the lack of. Help is on the way. A younger person with street-smarts in financial matters will help guide you to a sensible approach what you’re likely to discover is that there was nothing to worry about in the first place. –

You’re getting into the swing of altering things in your life after a lot of prevarication. Clarity of purpose is what you have sought (you’re a practical person after all), and this week the skies are doing everything to sharpen your wits. One plan becomes crystal clear to you. Politics, charity or a new business may be involved in this.

Since mid-May of this year, there has been turbulence in the family realm – the reasons may go back to earlier times, but matters have now erupted or surfaced and are being faced. While this may feel uncomfortable, be certain that you’re on your way to a much healthier situation. Later, everyone will feel a lot better and relieved.

There’s something to be said for making a mystery of oneself, if only to gain more time to do things your way. A few people in your circle can’t make head or tail of you right now as you contemplate plans well beyond your usual compass. Study or travel are part of this, along with the need for psychological or spiritual refreshment.

The workplace (and/or your social world) is a wonderful laboratory of sorts, where you can analyse the motives or behaviour of colleagues and bosses. You’re inclined this week to get to the bottom of something that’s bothered you for a while – you may examine documents or records of some kind to flush out a few facts. Very Sherlockian.

An exciting social or romantic period is augured by ruler Venus’ opposition to wild, maverick Uranus – a link that stays with you on and off till early January 2019. The chief characteristic is eyebrow-raising activity and sudden comings and goings. Life brings to you people outside your usual orbit – leaving you wondering: ‘What have I been missing?’

Bumpy rides are often a most stimulating experience for Geminis, so fasten the seat belt. A major work development proves most satisfying while a step is taken to prepare for major alterations (physical or emotional) in the family or home area. A notion is becoming actual in real life. A lot is happening all at once, and isn’t this what you love?
