You may be feeling the brunt of peer group pressure when Mars, your planetary ruler, clashes with influential Pluto. Stand firm and don’t be coerced into doing anything that your gut feels isn’t in alignment with your beliefs. Calling out bullies or manipulative behaviour towards you or someone you care about will put a stop to things quick smart.

Setting someone free can be a true testament to the depth of your love and your willingness to prioritise their best interests. This week, the Sun’s kiss with Jupiter may ask you to do just that. Don’t worry Gemini; if the relationship is meant for you, they will return with more to give, even if it’s only in an emotional sense. Take a deep breath, let go and trust.

You might be feeling like you’re taking two steps forward and one step backwards. The cosmos is asking you to slow down and reflect. Spending some time in solitude will get you clear about your next move, so get ready to slay your happiness goals. For now, allay restlessness with the knowledge that your time to shine is just a stone’s throw away.

The week begins on an emotional high when La Luna illuminates your sign, Libra. Issues around equality, especially in your relationships, are highlighted. Are you giving as much as you are taking? Or vice versa. Finding that sweet spot between what you expect of someone and what you are willing to offer is the key. Mercury is out of retrograde, so have a heart-to-heart chat.

Both your planetary rulers, Mars and Pluto, make a special connection in the heavens on Monday. This alignment may be tough on other zodiac signs but makes you a force to be reckoned with. How are you going to use all that power? Wield it wisely, and you’ll go far. Step up and take the lead. Making a big decision will impress your sweetheart.

Your planetary ruler is still stubbornly reversing through the cosmos, but on Wednesday, a kiss between the Sun and Jupiter boosts your luck. Expand your horizons and reach for the stars. Don’t be afraid to take a risk. You stand an epic chance of achieving an important goal, wish or desperate desire, so go for it! Saggies off on an adventure will have a blast.

Someone’s unscrupulous behaviour comes back to bite them in the ass this week. If you’ve been wronged and think the perpetrator has gotten away with murder, think again. Karma has been watching. It’s best not to get involved, even though you’re tempted to rub salt in the wound. Stay positive, watch from a distance and know that justice has been served.

AQUARIUS horoscope

You usually like to stand out from the crowd and don’t mind if people stare, especially if you’re speaking out about one of the many worthy causes you support. However, this week you’ll want to retreat in solitude. No need to apologise. Take all the time, you need to de-frizz your soul and regroup your mojo. A couple of early nights will do you wonders.

You should be bouncing off the walls with so much cosmic activity triggering your health zone. This may be the case for most Fish, but for some, it’s a signal that your diet, fitness routine or sleep habits need an overhaul. You now have every opportunity to slay any wellbeing goal you desire but sitting on the couch or at your desk is not going to make miracles happen.
