Week of February 1 to 7, 2015
ARIES You’d better rest a bit if your health is fragile. Luckily, you find that your sleep is doubly rejuvenating and that you can soon regain your strength. TAURUS If you’ve had visitors staying with you, your home is sure to be a mess and you now have the job of tidying it up. A big cleanout should be your priority this week. GEMINI Under the influence of the full moon, you have to unravel a complex and chaotic situation. Don’t let things de- teriorate for too long or you’ll run out of time. CANCER You may feel anxious about the health of a loved one. You receive some good news that will resurrect some interesting projects. LEO You see quite a lot of action this week. Your friends invite you here, there, and everywhere, which will pull you out of your hermit phase. You may even be invited to go on a trip. VIRGO You have every right to pat yourself on the back after accomplishing some sort of feat. Moreover, your success greatly enhances your self- esteem. LIBRA If you were planning to take a trip soon, it’s possible that a situation will arise and complicate things. Things will work out all right at the last moment. SCORPIO Your feelings are particularly sensi- tive; your emotions may even play a few tricks on you. You shed light on some sort of corruption at work or perhaps even in the family. SAGITTARIUS You’re not necessarily the most di- plomatic of people, but thanks to you, things can move forward. You dare to say out loud what all the other people are only thinking. CAPRICORN At work, you may be given a great promotion. But before you agree to anything, it’s important to talk to your life partner as well as your family. AQUARIUS You need to sharpen your negotia- ting skills in both a professional and a personal setting. You have every- thing it takes to reach a lasting agreement. PISCES You find yourself at the centre of attention, and this gives you a lot of pleasure. You may even receive a reward of some kind.
