PISCES 19 FEB – 20 MARCH Right now your love life looks good, but you need to pay attention to keep it going. You are so loved by so many, not just in the romantic sense, but in general; you have the gift of smoothness… Oh, don’t we all know that! Job wise all goes well, you just have to concentrate on what you are doing, and you may just be taken by huge surprise by how well it’s actually going… ARIES 21 MARCH – 19 APRIL Aries! you need to make plans and get on with them – this year is a whole lot better than the last one. The most important thing to concentrate on is getting rid of useless people in your life that either disappoint you or let you down. Kick them out the door and focus on your gifts (withan “S” – you have more than one). You can achieve a lot if you think carefully. Money improves too! TAURUS 20 APRIL – 20 MAY You appear to be getting several offers or opportunities to improve your money situation, so grab them and make yourself – er - Rich and Famous. However, being a Taurus, you will spend some time digging at the details – don’t waste too much time at this. Taurus. Pay attention! You are more loved than you will ever know by someone who worships the ground you walk on. How’s that? GEMINI 21 MAY – 20 JUNE Gemini always has choices, so – here we go again! You need to look at this new year with new eyes. What have you been wanting to do for a very long time but you’re just not getting to it? What’s holding you back, Gem? Two sides to every story is fine, but there has to be a limit… Work looks fine and so does romance, as long as you keep ploughing on. You have a Good Idea – use it! CANCER 21 JUNE – 22 JULY If you’re worried about your job, don’t be! You may have tackled something that didn’t go quite as planned, but just keep breathing, hide sharp instruments and wait it out. There is going to be a huge change in finances if you keep ploughing … There may even be a move of house which will make a huge difference to your attitude which is cranky right now. (usually is anyway…) LEO 23 JULY – 22 AUG What on earth has got into you, Leo? All of a sudden you are surrounded by love of every description. We all know you have been trying hard to get into a romantic relationship without actually committing murder, but maybe it’s time to slow down a bit so that you can make sensible decisions without leaving too many broken hearts behind you. They always tend to catch up with you, dear Leo … VIRGO 23 AUG – 22 SEP Here’s a pickup, Virg! You keep wondering what’s wrong with you when it comes to relationships. You are great at loving, but sometimes go down the wrong path when it gets to detail. Have you got it now? Allow things to go as they want to and enjoy the moment without analysing it. Someone special is about to arrive, and you’ve got to keep your wits about you. He/she will surprise you. LIBRA 23 Sep - 22 OCT You keep feeling like you’re missing something, and actually Libra, you’re dead right for a change. There is someone who is very impressed with what you have achieved lately in general, and may end up offering you something beyond your wildest dreams. Being an incredible hard worker, you could perhaps take five minutes to slow down and consider your options and think about it. SCORPIO 23 OCT – 21 NOV If you’re considering killing someone because they have annoyed you beyond bearing, walk away – you’ve got better things to do. Such as, look again at that person who has been hanging around you for so long waiting for you to notice him/her. He/she is desperate for you and you’re not even seeing it! Take a chance – you may even end up speaking the same language, you never know. SAGITTARIUS 22 NOV – 21 DEC Dear Sag, this is a love letter from the Universe: Please take some time to think about your life in general. The way its going right now, you won’t last until the middle of the year. Your energy level is very high, which is fine, but you really need to sift through everything to see what deserves the greatest attention. You are wearing people down, yourself included. What is the problem? CAPRICORN 21 DEC – JAN 20 Looks like you’re getting there, Cap! The Universe is proud of you for a change. You have started on a new road concerning work and money and very soon you will see results from this. Positive ones. But you still have a way to walk – there’s something you’re missing and its time to slow down and consider things. Family could do with a bit more attention… Give that a think maybe? AQUARIUS 20 JAN – 18 FEB Time to take a good look at yourself, Aqua. You’re on the right path, but you have to make sure that you’re doing everything the right way. When it comes to money matters you’re usually pretty good at it, but a decision awaits you that could change your perspective, so go carefully. Everybody thinks you’re wonderful, as usual, but there is somebody special lurking in the background…

A simply gorgeous result in this Scandinavian salon, and the happiest model you’ll ever see... blonde really does bring out those eyes!
