Weekly Horoscopes
One of the most potent of planetary interactions provides the backdrop to this week – the Sun in Taurus T Squaring Mars and Pluto. This can see incredibly tense situations boil into the open, especially where coercion, domination and control are used for the wrong purposes.
Where we have felt constrained or trapped, the tension that comes from this will have an impact. The potential for big natural events that I mentioned last week, regarding earthquakes, landslides, volcanoes and tsunamis is still high.
Harsh language and authoritarian attitudes can prevail, but more personally if we can flex and deflect we can reduce the potential for strife.
The Taurus New Moon, this year on Sunday, is ordinarily a chance to set our intentions financially, but even if we feel like being impulsive and splashing out, restraint may be best.
Aries 21 March – 20 April
Aspects to Pluto in Aquarius can stir tension in relationships and encourage honesty. Power struggles may surface, but don’t fear this. It’s your chance to clear the air and reclaim your voice.

Taurus 21 April – 21 May
Tussles might occur, especially with authority figures. Tread carefully, as pushing too hard could create unnecessary friction.

Gemini 22 May – 21 June
Edgy links to Pluto can stir up fiery debates, so watch out for a clash of beliefs that could escalate fast. Not everyone enjoys a lively conversation as much as you do.

Seek out those who share your dreams, and doors will open.
Leo 24 July – 23 August
