ARIES You are a fairly impulsive, spontaneous sort of person. You may decide to leave on a trip or register for classes that will allow you to have a more dynamic social life. TAURUS All your various obligations cause some turbulence in your life. This is a challenge, because your comfort zone is one of sta- bility. Things at work and in your family are moving quickly. GEMINI At work, you will come to an agreement with some important groups. Decisions will go in your favour if you are involved with the justice system for one reason or another. CANCER You are often surrounded by people, whether you work with the public or not. A government or civil service job would be profitable for you. LEO You especially love being the centre of attention even if you’re a shy person. You present yourself in a positive light in every situation. VIRGO You spend a part of the week at home recovering from a bad cold or taking care of a family member. You put the finishing touch on a decorative element of some kind. LIBRA You will do lots of coming and going this week, and you may even think seriously about changing cars. You will have some conversations that highlight your good qualities. SCORPIO You’re checking out the real estate mar- ket or at least checking your budget to see if you can buy the house you’ve always dreamed of. SAGITTARIUS There is plenty of action all around you. You’ll be compelled to undertake a more active lifestyle, as much with your loved one as with your family, friends, and work colleagues. CAPRICORN Your body may start telling you that it needs a bit more rest. You have the ten- dency to burn the candle at both ends and put yourself in very stressful situations. AQUARIUS You are the centre of attention in an important group of people, whether at work or in other surroundings. This is great for your self-esteem. PISCES You have a fair amount of responsibility to shoulder. You could also become seri- ously involved in a project of an artistic nature.
