Your Stellar horoscope for the week is here: March 25 to 31

Dynamic Mars becomes the final planet to join the ‘March of destiny’. Click here to read what the week ahead has in store.

This weekend dynamic Mars becomes the final planet to join the “March of destiny”. And, with Mercury linking with Jupiter this week, whether we’re travelling physically or philosophically, we’ll gain new perspectives to broaden our minds. But while it’s important to take all ideas seriously, the value of paying attention to our feelings can’t be underestimated. Not all knowledge lives in the mind. And as Venus converges with quirky Uranus it promises material changes that appeal to our hearts as much as our heads.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20)

As your ruler, Mars, joins the “March of destiny”, the planets are determined to encourage and support you. Within reason, they’ll provide you with what you need whenever you need it. Get ready to be blessed with opportunities, plus the insight to see which are worth following. But there’s no guarantee your choices will lead to triumphs. If you’re determined enough, you’ll be able to make mistakes. You just need to be defensive and sceptical. But as long as you keep negative emotions at bay, big successes can be yours.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21)

Instead of giving you a prediction, here’s a set of instructions, and if you follow them closely you’ll be able to melt hearts and garner emotional and financial support. Just bear in mind that these plans will only work as long as you … oops … I seem to have run out of room! I hope I haven’t left you with a sense of being in touching distance of acquiring life-changing information that has just eluded you. If you find yourself feeling frustrated this week, know that as long as you remain hopeful you’ll be able to make any situation positive.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 22)

The movie classic The Wizard Of Oz starts in black and white and changes to glorious Technicolor when Dorothy is transported to the magical world of Oz. Although you can’t expect to experience such a vivid change of scenery, as Mars leaves your sign and joins the “March of destiny”, you can anticipate a dramatic psychological transformation. The winds of change are blowing you in a favourable direction. Something you thought of as grey and dull is about to reveal a depth of colour. A magical adventure awaits – click those heels!

CANCER (June 23 – July 23)

For some time now you’ve been facing a problem head on. The good news is that even if you feel as if you’re still dealing with this situation, you’ve conquered your fear. It might take a while for you to process the implications of all you’ve been through, but as dynamic Mars enters your sign, you’ll soon start to appreciate a sense of greater freedom and strength. As your problems recede, and your relationship entanglements become less complicated, you’ll see clear evidence that you’re entering a much brighter phase of your future.

LEO (July 24 – August 23)

It’s lucky our planet is populated with people who don’t say what they mean. If it weren’t the case there’d be no need for therapists or law enforcement! As things stand, we all benefit from the services of these professionals. So much so that if we don’t have one to turn to, we take on the roles ourselves: we look for clues; we analyse what we’re being told; and we often make amazing discoveries. The confusing information you receive this week can be skilfully turned to your advantage as it reveals a wonderful shortcut to success.

VIRGO (August 24 – September 23)

Imagine you’ve been studying the piano and have reached such proficiency that you’re playing in an orchestra. One day, to entertain some kids, you improvise a few nursery rhymes. They enjoy them so much that the word spreads, and suddenly you find yourself in demand as a children’s entertainer. It’s infuriating, because it’s not the goal you had in mind. Yet there’s no doubt that you’re a huge success. This week, if you enjoy what unfolds (rather than thinking about what “should” be happening) you’ll triumph.

LIBRA (September 24 – October 23)

Get ready for an improvement in your outlook. Under auspicious skies, and with your ruler, Venus, linking to innovative Uranus, it’s going to be an exciting week. You’ll like the way things turn out. Now I suppose I should inject a note of caution: I don’t want your expectations to be so high that you expect a lottery win (or an encounter with your favourite celebrity). It’s more likely to be a modest achievement. But don’t rule out delightful surprises. If you seize opportunities, you won’t be disappointed.

SCORPIO (October 24 – November 22)

You can’t beat a good problem. If you’ve got one to deal with, it sweeps trivial concerns away. It forces you to ignore former sources of irritation. You can’t focus on other time-consuming issues, either. When you’re dealing with one big problem, you can provide a million excuses, justifications and reasons to escape your usual routine because you’ve got no choice but to turn all your attention to solving it. Now, how big is the problem you face? Not that big. Unless, that is, you choose to make it much bigger!

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 – December 21)

The “March of destiny” indicates that you can move on from a tricky situation. But there’s no law to say you have to. If you’re happy to stay where you are, then stay. After all, some people spend their whole lives stuck in unsatisfactory scenarios. But you know what you’re like; you love moving forwards. So, since the planets are offering you an opportunity to do that, why reject it? Whatever you decide to do, do it wholeheartedly. The only mistake you can make is to be nervous about what lies ahead, because it looks promising.

CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 20)

You like being busy. If there isn’t enough going on, you sometimes seek new challenges; you thrive when you’ve got lots of demands on your time. The “March of destiny” insists you won’t have to invent reasons to run around, dealing with urgent developments or putting out metaphorical fires. Opportunities to wear your superhero cape will seek you out. Just remember that these are opportunities; as long as you don’t get swept up in a desire to be heroic, your ability to find solutions will bring appreciation, and even new friendships.

AQUARIUS (January 21 – February 19)

With your ruler, Uranus, linking with Venus, you need to expect the unexpected this week. Now I know this advice might seem illogical. After all, if you expect the unexpected, you could argue that when it happens it’s not unexpected! Yet if you’ve got an eye out for unanticipated developments you’re more likely to be in a position to appreciate them. You’re good at dealing with surprises. If anyone’s able to adapt, it’s you. There’s a real chance you’ll end this week in a much happier place than you dare imagine.

PISCES (February 20 – March 20)

You’re known for your intuition and perception. Famously, even though you act on the spur of the moment and don’t like making plans, you end up in the right place, at the right time – without making too much effort. But is that always true? When you’re feeling passionate, you’re perfectly able to summon up the determination to pursue an objective. Look at what’s motivating you this week. Consider how much it means. How can you do anything other than give it all you’ve got? If you do, the “March of destiny” insists you’ll succeed.
