First date? Big meeting? Find out what this week has in store for you in our Aquarius horoscope by Natasha Weber.

Aquarius, here's the low-down on your week.

Welcome to news.com.au’s weekly horoscopes – here’s everything you need to know about what’s coming for you this week.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 14 May 2023

You’ll be a powerhouse of productivity around the house, completing home improvements at record speed. Now is the time to liven up your living space with a fresh lick of paint or give that spare room an interior design makeover. Thanks to Friday’s collaboration between Mercury and Saturn, you’re in for a week of peak productivity. Have you been putting off a daunting task or delaying a delicate conversation you’ve been nervous to initiate? If so, leave it for the end of the week - it will likely go smoother than expected. Mercury’s influence sharpens your communication skills, making it an opportune time to voice your thoughts and lift any lingering worries – just remember to tread lightly when disciplining the kids.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 7 May 2023

It’s time to take excellent care of your physical self, Aquarius. Consider how you can enhance your health habits to maximise your wellbeing. To do so, you need to tune in, Aquarius, as your needs are unlike anyone else’s. Understanding how to optimise your potential requires attention to your body’s signals. Starting Monday, Venus will support your wellness journey. Leverage Venus’s arrival to address any minor issues and unleash your full physical potential.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 30 April 2023

This week, a career aspiration or life objective reaches a turning point, but it might not develop as you anticipated. There may be lingering loose ends to address or minor details to handle. Additionally, due to the erratic energy of Saturday’s lunar eclipse, what you once considered a sure thing might turn out differently. Don’t worry, Aquarius. Remain alert and ready to manage unexpected outcomes, as the universe ultimately guides you towards your best future.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 23 April 2023

Roll up your sleeves and tackle that to-do list! Just be aware that Mercury is still in retrograde, so you might run into some frustrating hiccups along the way. The good news is that the Sun and Saturn are on your side, thanks to the ringed planet being your planetary ruler. This means you can confidently move forward with delayed projects, conversations and meet-ups. But there’s a catch; the Sun and Saturn’s support lasts only one day – Tuesday. So plan accordingly to maximise this brief but valuable window to get things done and dusted!

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 16 April 2023

The Sun warms up your home zone on Thursday, providing a beautiful family atmosphere that brings your nearest and dearest together. The trouble is, mischievous Mercury begins its retrograde the very next day. This cosmic rewind may cause you or a relative to get all worked up over a random comment – and there’s probably no good reason to take what was said to heart. If you’re agitated, try to see the other person’s perspective and consider their intention. Is it worth the worry if there’s no malice behind their words?

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 9 April 2023

Pretty much anything that comes out of your mouth hits a high note this week, thanks to the Sun and Jupiter’s auspicious link. This serendipitous alignment arrives at the nick of time because you have something important to say, Aquarius. Don’t be shy – you were born for this! Speak from your heart and trust that the cosmos has your back. Keep going even if you start to second guess yourself mid-way through the conversation. Whoever you’re talking to thinks your words are like music to their ears.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 2 April 2023

Are you sick and tired of hearing about Pluto’s trip through your sign? Don’t be. It’s exciting stuff! Especially when Mercury links to the powerhouse planet on Tuesday. This cosmic combo reveals a window into your future, so notice the signs and symbols that arise. You may also get an idea or flash of inspiration on actioning this insight, thanks to brilliant Mercury. Even if you can’t move forward with your plan, write it down in a journal and refer back when the time is ripe (possibly when Pluto reenters your sign in January 2024).

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 26 March 2023

This week, you might encounter trouble from a co-worker, fellow parent, or boss due to the Mars and Pluto clash. Don’t sweat it, Aquarius. The crucial thing is to avoid falling for the trap and snapping back, as that’s precisely what they’re after. This won’t last long, so dodging the confrontation will prevent any mess. The tension will quickly dissipate, turning into a non-issue. Just bite your tongue, and by the end of the week, work, school drop-offs, pick-ups, or your daily routine will run smoothly once more.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 19 March 2023

This week marks the start of a transformative time for you as the powerful planet Pluto enters your sign for the first time in centuries. You may have already felt its impact as the winds of change whisper in your ear. Take this opportunity to evaluate where you stand in your life, especially where you feel dissatisfied. Remember that major change takes time, so don’t expect an overnight sensation. What aspects of your life need to go, what should stay, and which areas require a complete overhaul, Aquarius? Embrace Pluto’s influence as a powerful instigator for growth and change.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 12 March 2023

Do you sense it too? That feeling that something significant is looming. Like there’s a change on the horizon, and you can feel it in your bones? The atmosphere surrounding you is so electric right now you can almost taste it. Maybe it’s a life-altering decision you’re about to make, or perhaps it’s just a hunch that things will be different. Either way, don’t fight it. Embrace that sensation and allow it to push you forward. Sure, change can be intimidating, but if you’re willing to take the leap, Aquarius, Pluto brings improvement.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 5 March 2023

Getting involved with an attractive someone who has trouble with intimacy can be challenging. So before diving in, ensure you’re ready for the ride. Remember that everyone has their own emotional journey, and respecting where they’re coming from is non-negotiable. If this is you, Saturn advises you to proceed with caution. The full Moon heats things up in the bedroom if you’re coupled up. Explore new territory with your partner – and let your wild side take over. Whether it’s role play or just having fun, embrace your inner sex goddess, Aquarius.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 26 February 2023

As a determined Aquarius, you know that success doesn’t come easy, but it’s always worth the effort. This week, staying focused on your primary objective is vital to achieving your desired outcome. Although you may encounter a tiny setback due to Mercury’s link with stern Saturn, you’re more than capable of rising to the occasion. Remind yourself of why you set out on this journey, whether a personal aspiration or professional ambition, and don’t lose sight of the finish line. It’s time to push forward with unwavering determination.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 19 February 2023

This week, Venus and Pluto are giving you a nudge to chase what sets your heart on fire. Find what you’re passionate about, be it a hobby, a career change or a new relationship, and go all in. Give it 100 per cent and watch the magic unfold. Even if you just start planting the seeds of intention, with time and patience, your passion will blossom into something beautiful. Trust the cosmos, Aquarius; it’ll be worth the ride.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 12 February 2023

You know that one person in your circle who always lifts your spirits and makes you feel unstoppable? They offer encouragement, a pat on the back, or simply their unwavering faith in you. This week, the planet Mercury encourages you to show appreciation for their support in a unique way. Merely saying “thank you” is great, but consider going the extra mile and letting them know just how grateful you are for everything they do. Personalise your gesture and demonstrate that you’ve put some thought into it.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 5 February 2023

Mercury’s move into your sign inspires a brilliant idea – as if you needed any help. Still, the intellectual planet has been loitering in your subconscious zone, making it hard for you to articulate your deepest, darkest musings. But this week, Mercury brings these thoughts into the open, helping you talk about what’s been on your mind. Perhaps fear of rejection or failure kept you silent, and those things may have played their part. But the truth is, the timing just wasn’t right for you to bare all. Now, it is.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 29 January 2023

Hang out with your air sign friends this week. They’ll boost your confidence by inspiring you to be your best self. There’s a saying that goes like this, “show me your friends and I’ll know what you’re like”. You’re such a social creature, Aquarius. Just make sure you’re choosing your tribe wisely because even people living their best lives aren’t valuable assets if they drag you down. Sure, they may have the best intentions, and their subtle digs are probably unintentional. But does that really matter?

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 22 January 2023

Sunday’s new moon in your sign brings a whoosh of fresh cosmic energy. Just remember, where one door closes, another one opens. If you’ve been waiting for a new beginning or a second chance at something that previously fell short of the mark, this lunation makes it happen. All you need to do is bring your A-game to the table. Now isn’t the time to put your feet up, and you must doubt yourself. Don’t dream it, do it! Say yes to a new job opportunity, adopt an upgraded paradigm and look at your relationship expectations through fresh eyes.

Aquarius Weekly Horoscope: 15 January 2023

Happy birthday, Aquarius! The Sun marks your zodiac season on Friday, bringing new opportunities to conquer and goals to smash. This begins a brand-new twelve-year cycle, so it’s much like your personal New Year. It’s a great time to set grand resolutions and maybe create a vision board. Cut out (or print) inspiring images and photos of who you want to be at your greatest potential and what you want to achieve over your upcoming solar year. What would your ideal life look like?

Week beginning January 8

Venus makes beautiful music with sensual Mars this week, turning up romance. But there’s a twist for singles. Your heart could lead you into familiar territory when you catch feelings for a friend or coworker. But before you bulk at the idea, think about the advantages. You already know each other’s weird quirks and shadow qualities, and you’re past the awkward first stages of getting to know someone. Sounds pretty perfect. Taken Aquarians celebrate a special milestone with eyes only for each other. Swoon…

Week beginning January 1

Venus comes bearing glow-up gifts at the perfect time. Feeling invisible lately, Aquarius? It’s not like you to avoid standing out from the crowd. But your wallflower moment has been and gone, and now it’s time to shine. Sunday has you contemplating a change. Should you try a new do? Or buy that outfit that isn’t your usual style, but you just can’t get out of your head? The cosmos says, “do both!’ But wait until after Tuesday because that’s when the beauty planet enters your sign. By week’s end, your make-over craze spills over to your home.

Week beginning December 25

Mercury’s embrace with nostalgic Neptune makes for a sentimental Christmas. Why not sit around the tree with your loved ones and reminisce over your favourite family memory? Or reflect on your childhood - the best bits and how you’ve evolved. Most of all, you’ll want to express just how much a special relative means to you, whether that’s a grandparent, a sibling or a child. Please do. And don’t worry about finding the right words to say what’s in your heart. They’ll flow quite naturally.

Week beginning December 18

You’re a visionary, and this week, Jupiter encourages you to dream big, Aquarius. Combine your inspiration with Jupiter’s innovation, and you could come up with a winning thought or idea after Wednesday. This brilliant light bulb moment could come while you’re fast asleep, so keep a notebook and pen by your bedside, just in case. Jot down the slightest insight and meditate on it. Because tiny seeds of genius have great potential to grow into flourishing concepts.

Week beginning December 11

What will surface during your sleeping hours? Venus languishes in your subconscious sector, bringing you a message from beyond. Still, you could miss this angelic memo if you’re not mindful. A great way to remember your dreams is by keeping a notebook by your bedside table. That way, you can jot down night-time inspirations before they get lost in your waking thoughts. And if you’re committed to hearing this news, you could try journalling before drifting off. Get the words out of your head and onto paper so you’re more receptive to incoming intel.

Week beginning December 4

Flap your social butterfly wings; it’s time to play! Thursday’s full moon in your fun zone loads your party schedule with exciting catch-ups, after-hours cocktails and plenty of chit-chats. Although you’ll be pulled from pillar to post connecting with long-lost and new-found friends, you’re in your happy place. Still, find time to recuperate. Spreading yourself too thin could result in an overworked nervous system and costly mistakes. So, enjoy yourself, Aquarius, but without throwing all caution to the wind.

Week beginning November 27

Saturn makes waves in your sign throughout the week, with chatty Mercury, action-packed Mars and social Venus. Add up this cosmic equation, and you get a hectic schedule! Your home planet keeps you grounded despite feeling pulled from pillar to post. And Saturn’s focus spots a golden chance to get ahead or promote yourself. So, when you’re out with friends or at a networking event, seize the moment to push your agenda! It would be rude not to.

Week beginning November 20

Mars and Neptune are in cohorts, putting a project or ambition to the test. When these two planets get together, they can easily undermine your confidence. But you can overcome their insipid influence by fighting back! Suppose you’ve poured your heart and soul into a super-important venture. You’ve invested your time, effort and possibly money. Then this celestial impact might feel like a slow leak, which spills over into your relationships. This terrible team won’t hang around for long, though. Just be aware that it’s not you; it’s just Mars and Neptune up to their old tricks.

Week beginning November 13

You can manifest whatever you want, provided you know what it is. The ton of celestial action in your vocational sector is itching to uplevel your career, status or life direction. Still, cosmic wires could get crossed if you’re sending the Universe mixed messages. If you aren’t crystal clear on your goals, contemplate your purpose this week – Mercury’s insightful link to Jupiter will help you figure it out. What makes your heart sing, Aquarius? Answer that question and you’re halfway there.

Week beginning November 6

Your career stars are systems go, even if you’re not fully prepared for the spotlight. You may be asked to accept more responsibility at work or step into a role that terrifies you - but in a good way! Saturn reassures you that you’re up for the task, so don’t sabotage your chance at greatness by doubting your abilities. You’ve got this! Most of all,trust in your own ideas and inclinations. Just because a superior is more experienced doesn’t mean they trump your talents. Tuesday’s lunar eclipse organises a family gathering with a surprising twist.

Week beginning October 30

Illuminated insights are the star’s gift to you this week. Still, if you push your gut feels aside, you won’t make use of a stellar opportunity. This is a great week to take a calculated risk, which isn’t that dicey because you’ve done the research. Now, all that’s left is to seal the deal. Do it quickly, though, because you’ll kick yourself if you miss out. Mars retrograde tempts you to be all work and no play. Resist! Prioritise fun, and you’ll be happier, healthier and more productive in the long run. Single? Say “yes!” to that date.

Week beginning October 23

Saturn corrects its course after a lengthy retrograde through your sign. The ringed planet’s forward flow gives a personal project the green light to proceed in leaps and bounds. Progress is liberating because it means you’re finally fulfilling your potential. Also, a relationship comes unstuck, which is super positive for you. Those looking to pivot in their professional life may be restless, while others have a deep-seated conviction that there must be more. Aquarius, the solution lies inside you.

Week beginning October 16

Read the room - and any new connections carefully if you’re single. At first, your date might seem captivated and oh-so interested in you - and that’s a turn on. But eventually, the interest could turn into an unhealthy obsession, which is not so sexy. Trust in your ability to read someone’s true intentions, and don’t allow your ego to get in the way of your perceptions, which are usually spot on. Some couples head off on holiday or plan a romantic escape - how lovely. While other Aquarians bite the education bullet to learn about a topic that piques their passion.

Week beginning October 9

La Luna tempts you away on a short trip. Anywhere will do as long as you’re escaping your daily grind. You’d even be thrilled to go on a work trip, provided your boss picked up the tab. But seriously, if responsibilities keep you tethered to your house, consider exploring your mind. Jump online and check out a course or study program that whets your mental appetite. That way, you’ll avoid boredom and escape the monotony of your routine while staying put. And let’s not forget that your brilliant intellect needs constant stimulation, Aquarius. If formal education is too much of a commitment, pick up an interesting book instead.

Week beginning October 2

I can almost see your lips smirk and your cheeks blush when you discover that Mercury thrusts forward in your sex zone this week. For couples, this means addressing intimacy issues with an honest and open-minded conversation. Your aim? To take your orgasm up a notch, two or three! But what’s most important is that you feel your carnal needs have been heard and understood. Singles break their sexual drought this week - expect a flood of attention and affection.

Week beginning September 25

Your itchy feet are driving you insane! You desperately want to board a plane and jet off. Anywhere but home will do! Where you go depends on you; an idyllic island oasis sounds like heaven, but exploring another culture in a foreign city is enthralling too. Ultimately, it’s not the destination that’s important; it’s feeling as free as a bird, without time constraints or tedious obligations hanging over your head. And while throwing all responsibility out the window isn’t advised, escaping your daily grind is on the cards.

Week beginning September 18

Saturn has been hanging out in your sign, testing you on and off, but don’t let that stop you from living your best life, Aquarius. As well as being a stern taskmaster, Saturn is your home ruler, so the disciplined planet wants to see you succeed and shine like a diamond. The trick to doing that is to do the work. And when Jupiter lends confidence to the mix on Wednesday, that’s precisely what you be inspired to do. So go ahead, darling, examine your wounds and take the necessary steps to heal. And then, wear your scars with pride.

Week beginning September 11

Home is where the heart is, as Venus embraces the Moon’s Node in your family sector. You’re a mover and a shaker, and you’re often on the hustle, not because you’re super ambitious but because you strive to make a difference. But this week, you take a break from trying to change the world and return to your roots. You don’t need to be switched on all the time, Aquarius. It’s enough to just be you. So take time out to get back to basics and reconnect with the people that matter.

Week beginning September 4

Single’s sex life heats up with a dash of emotional intimacy on the side. Typically, you shy away from the “C” word - commitment. You prefer being footloose and fancy-free when not comes to relationships. Until, of course, you meet your soul match. But this week cracks open even the most freedom-loving Aquarians. If you meet someone who takes your breath away in the bedroom and you also share a spookily profound emotional connection, you may consider settling down. Couples amp up the romance with a verbal expression of devotion that’s weaved into dirty talk.

Week beginning August 28

Saturn’s presence in your sign comes with heavy-duty demands, separating you from what and who is no longer in your best interests. But that’s yesterday’s news, as Venus obliterates solemness in favour of fun, romance and a much-needed social outlet. So, if you need to let your hair down and walk on the wild side, do it! Shaking off stress will do more good than harm, and you can always take care of serious business next week. For now, a lighter vibe suits you better, Aquarius.

Week beginning August 21

Uranus is one of your home rulers, so anything can happen when the radical planet retrogrades in your family sector. That’s not to say you should expect doom and gloom, but it does suggest you expect the unexpected. Last-minute changes to your schedule are highly possible and don’t be surprised when great aunt Bessie drops in unannounced. Remember that whatever happens, it’s not the end of the world. And if you let go and let flow, you might enjoy the unpredictable yet thrilling ride ahead.

Week beginning August 14

Struggling to stick to a healthy routine? Then you’ll be pleased to know that mindful Mercury teams up with dedicated Saturn on Friday, ridding you of lethargy in favour of self-discipline, drive and incentive. This week sees you more determined than ever to get back on track, whether that means committing to making a relationship the best it can be, looking after all aspects of your wellbeing or giving a work project everything you’ve got. And with a stellar attitude like that, you can’t go wrong, Aquarius.

Week beginning August 7

Ohh la la, Venus seduces your relationship zone on Friday. If you’re not already paired up, Cupid has you in his sights, so be prepared for #singlelife to end for good by Saturday. Bad boys and rebels may have lit your fire in the past, but now the cosmos suggests a switch. Nurturing, new age sensitive types are where it’s at when someone radically different comes as a delightful surprise. Couples that workout together stay together, so hit the gym, your yoga shala or pilates studio and turn hot and sweaty into foreplay.

Week beginning July 31

La Luna gets ripe and juicy in your sign on Friday for the only time in 2022. This full Moon brings a project to fruition or achieves a goal you’ve worked tirelessly towards over the past year. You don’t even have to invest any further effort because the work has already been done. And now, it’s time to reap your rewards. But while this is excellent news for those that have spent the last twelve months with their nose to the grindstone, it’s not so good for dreamers that haven’t applied themselves. Don’t worry, Aquarius. Use this full Moon to kick start another grand scheme and get to work!

Week beginning July 24

Friday’s new Moon conquers a meaningful relationship goal. Whatever you set your mind to (or, more importantly, your heart on) gets a cosmic helping hand this week. How could your relationship be better? Clearer communication, spending more quality time together or becoming a better listener are all up for grabs. If your love life is practically perfect, or you’re flying solo, turn your attention inwards to improve your relationship with yourself. Brush up on your self-talk, treat yourself to something nice or cut out a bad habit that’s to your detriment.

Week beginning July 17

You’re doing just fine, Aquarius. So why do you need convincing? Saturn, your planetary ruler, oversees time in astrology, which may be why you’re feeling like the clock is ticking. The only limitations you’ll come up against this week are those you put on yourself. So, watch your self-talk. And who says you have to accomplish your goals in a particular order or by a certain age? Where is that written in stone? Once you realise that you are your own timekeeper, you’ll be kinder to yourself. For now, make that your #1 priority.

Week beginning July 10

This week’s stars see some Aquarians walking down the aisle, getting engaged or moving in with their sweetheart. While others make a romantic commitment that’s less long-term. Maybe it’s time to meet your new partner’s folks or finally go public on social media? But if that’s not where you’re at, Venus and Saturn’s embrace inspires extreme self-love with a pricey twist. You’ll be tempted to splurge on an expensive (but gorgeous) personal item or book a last-minute luxury holiday. Spending wisely goes without saying, but you do deserve a treat, Aquarius.

Week beginning July 3

It’s a great week to go on a health kick! Feeling lacklustre lately? Then pull back on the indulgences (just a bit) and commit to being the best version of you. Mercury makes it easy for you when the planet of mental discipline dances into your wellbeing sector. Get your glow on by increasing your fruit and veggie intake, drinking more water or sleeping better - whatever works for you is fine. Change as much as you’re comfortable with because wellness isn’t about smashing your body; it’s about nurturing your physical, mental and emotional needs.

Week beginning June 26

Your friendships are high priority to you, Aquarius. They are the oxygen that you breathe. Of course, you’re uber independent, but you crave social interaction and connection more than most. And yet Mercury’s link to Saturn finds bliss in solitude this weekend. Say no to a big night out because this Saturday is reserved for you only. Indulge in ‘me time’ without the need to share your energy and efforts with anyone else. Curl up on the sofa, binge-watch Netflix or chillax in the bath - heaven!

Week beginning June 19

Is the term ‘commitment-phobe’ familiar to you? If it is, Venus’ nod to Saturn suggests that you reflect on why you’re reluctant to put down roots. Your insatiable desire for freedom spills over into your relationships but can also affect your home life and financial landscape. And this becomes a problem when you sabotage progress to avoid settling down. But you’re in luck, Aquarius, because this week’s stars promise it’s okay to commit to a person, mortgage or responsibility. This week, you get your independence plus a sense of security.

Week beginning June 12

Saturn lingering in your sign won’t let you get away with anything less than hard work, effort and application, especially in your relationships. But what about the relationship you have with yourself, Aquarius? Are you giving that enough time and energy? On Thursday, the Sun motivates you to do something uplifting and supportive for yourself, whether it’s putting your feet up, treating yourself or scheduling a conversation with your therapist. What you do doesn’t really matter, provided it satisfies the number one person in your life - you! Make this the week to please yourself.

Week beginning June 5

Something important to you comes to a grinding halt when Saturn steps back through your sign this week. Although frustrating, this pause couldn’t have come at a better time for you, Aquarius, as it gives you a chance to catch your breath before determining your next move. Use this pensive phase to weigh up the pros and cons of a situation or relationship. And once you’ve carefully chosen your path, you’re free to step out in a new direction or stay where you are. The cosmos reminds you that you deserve the best, even if it takes time.

Week beginning May 29

Vague Neptune’s clash with strict Saturn in your sign creates anxiety around a money matter. Whether you’re waiting on a job confirmation, sorting through a pile of bills or dreaming about an expensive item on your wish list, this week sees you standing on unstable financial ground. But worry won’t get you anywhere, Aquarius. You’re better off instigating a clever savings strategy after Friday when Mercury halts its retrograde. Think long term gains over short term satisfaction, and you’re on the right track.

Week beginning May 22

If your love life has been on shaky ground lately, Venus’ nod to dedicated Saturn steadies you. New relationships find their groove after Tuesday, which may include changing your Facebook status to confirm that you’re ‘in a relationship’, meeting your sweetheart’s parents or agreeing to monogamy. However you decide to consolidate your commitment, you’ll have to leave something behind, even if it’s just singledom and your prized freedom. Couples share a responsibility that brings a great sense of satisfaction and achievement.

Week beginning May 15

The Sun and Saturn’s link separates you from a relationship past its use-by date. Plus, Monday’s eclipse aims to change what or who is no longer serving your best interests. But walking away from safe and familiar situations may prove more difficult than it should be, especially if your confidence is low. So what should you do? Not much, really, because this week’s stars are fated to do all the work for you. Your job is simply to believe that everything will work out as it’s meant to.

Week beginning May 8

Your planetary ruler, Uranus, connects with generous Jupiter on Wednesday. This clever celestial alignment makes almost anything possible - the world really is your oyster this week. Yes, Mercury happens to be in retrograde at the same time, but trust that the magic is working quietly behind the scenes until the right moment presents itself. While waiting patiently for divine timing to step in, be careful not to derail your success with negative self-talk. Believe in yourself and everything you bring to the table, Aquarius.

Week beginning May 1

A heated discussion with a female rattles your cage, but in the end, it gives you the impetus needed to make a necessary change. If you’ve been cowering in your comfort zone, it’s time to venture out. And this woman is just the person to help you do that. You might not like what she has to say. In fact, your sharp tongue retaliates in your own defence; but you know, deep down, that some of her points are valid. Give yourself the rest of the week to let it all sink in, and then take action. The power to turn things around rests with you!

Week beginning April 24

Productivity is off the charts this week, thanks to Mercury’s helpful alliance with efficient Saturn in your sign. And although that might sound a tad boring, once you’ve taken care of overdue bills, unanswered emails and attended to outstanding tasks, you’ll feel a weight lifted off your shoulders. Then, you’re free to kick up your heels by the weekend. But give in to laziness, and you’ll be more stressed than chill. Make your motto work hard, play hard, Capricorn, and you’ll let your hair down without a care in the world.

Week beginning April 17

Spend some quality time with your favourite uncle, grandpa, brother, or dad this week. You’ve been so caught up in life’s little details lately that you’ve neglected this special man. Forget about feeling guilty; this isn’t about that. Instead, the Sun wants to inject some fun and frivolity into your relationship and remind you of the close connection you once shared. Carve a few hours or more out of your busy schedule to make some lovely memories. And if you’ve fallen out, Le Soleil waves the white flag.

Week beginning April 10

A lovely gift is on its way to you; it could be a precious object, luxury item or sparkly jewellery that you receive. Or, you can look forward to a generous gesture that touches your heart. And if you’re given a compliment, don’t brush it off out of awkward embarrassment. Because the universe is listening. Say “thank you!” gratefully, and put it out there that you deserve to be showered in love, abundance and riches. It wouldn’t hurt to practise in front of a mirror until you believe that yourself.

Week beginning April 3

All cosmic eyes are on you as your sign hosts a powerful planetary meet-up this week. Nevertheless, Mars and Saturn’s connection can go one of two ways. Firstly, you can boil inwardly over something or someone that has done you wrong. The stars advise against this option as it only saps you of your personal power. A much better choice is to act assertively and speak your truth. Doing so takes courage, but it’s in your best interests to bring things out into the open where they can be properly aired and cleared.

Week beginning March 27

Pleasurable pursuits top your priority list when Venus and Saturn connect in your sign on Tuesday. You’re more interested in gratification than grunt work. And all work and no play doesn’t suit this week’s lighthearted vibe. Still, your inner parent is screaming at you to be sensible; and as much as you’d like to, you can’t shirk your responsibilities. The sweet spot between both extremes is where it’s at. Do what needs to be done, delegate the rest and then get out of the house or office to find your fun.

Week beginning March 20

Tap into your inner world, Aquarius As the most intelligent sign of the zodiac, you tend to think deeply about the ‘why’ of life. On Saturday, Mercury and Pluto’s link poke at your philosophies, changing your mind about a long-held idea or belief. You’ll be drawn to exploring new other-worldly topics and spiritual subjects that captivate your interests this week, and the stars encourage you to do just that. Above all, follow your own path regarding your views on religion, sexuality, life and love.

Week beginning March 13

A love surprise is on the cards this week, as Venus faces off with unpredictable Uranus on Friday. Anything and everything is possible and probable, but whatever eventuates, it won’t be what you’re expecting. Don’t be nervous; this is all in your long-term best interest. So, flow with the twists and turns, and you’ll land on solid ground. Also, the stars support home repairs, renovations, and an interior design reassess. Consider sprucing up your bedroom, invest in quality decor pieces and correct any Feng-Shui no-nos.

Week beginning March 6

Thanks to devoted Venus and provocative Mars entering your sign, your week is set to sparkle! Singles attract attention from the opposite sex (or the same, depending on your sexual preference). So, make sure you’re looking your beautiful best. Sound superficial? It’s not really. This planetary duo grants you magnetic chemistry like the Universe has sprinkled magical pheromones on you. But to use this heavenly gift to its full advantage, you must feel super confident. And when you look good, you feel good too. It’s as simple as that.

Week beginning February 27

Cerebral Mercury and strict task-master Saturn in your sign give you a steely determination. Focus on conquering a longstanding goal, smashing a looming deadline or doing whatever else you damn well set your mind to. Put simply, nothing can stand in the way of you and what you want this week. Still, you might decide to use your cosmic influence to help a friend in need or recommend a peer for a prestigious new role. Rest assured that your generosity will earn you a ton of karmic brownie points.

Week beginning February 20

A family matter pulls you in different directions as a big decision looms. Mercury’s link with electric Uranus delivers excitement when all you want is to relax with a cup of herbal tea (or possibly something more potent). If you were hoping for peace and quiet within the confines of your four walls, think again. Instead, prepare to host a rip-roaring party or entertain last-minute drop-ins that stay well past their welcome. But don’t put up with inconsiderate behaviour in your own home, Aquarius. Kindly tell your guests you need your beauty sleep – they’ll understand.

Week beginning February 13

Mercury skips into your sign on Tuesday, uplevelling your friendship zone. Dust off your social butterfly wings and make a memorable entrance, just for the fun of it (plus, the ego boost wouldn’t hurt, either). Schedule beauty and grooming appointments well in advance – you don’t want to miss the gossip while everyone else is catching up over coffee and croissants. But if you do become aware of sensitive information, keep it to yourself. Because starting a chain of Chinese whispers is guaranteed to demote you in the popularity stakes.

Week beginning February 6

Working on a secret something? Clever Mercury and Pluto’s brainstorm suggests you keep your ideas to yourself. Brew your brand-new concept, relationship or project behind the scenes instead of shouting it from the rooftops. Because inspiration is fragile, it’s vulnerable to outside criticism, which means that someone could unintentionally burst your bubble before it’s had a chance to take off. Eventually, you’ll get to share your brilliant news with the world. But for now, keep this precious information under wraps.
