Thursday brings creative cooperation for Aries, domestic attention for Taurus, and pleasing discoveries for all signs. Check what the stars predict for your zodiac sign.
Zodiac Signs Daily Horoscope: Relations with children and younger family members are set to improve and cultural pursuits are likely to take up more of your time. But when it comes to social arrangements, I suspect you’ll be bogged down in the details.
ARIES HOROSCOPE (Mar 21 – Apr. 20): define your limits
You may soon come to the conclusion that some of your plans are a trifle unrealistic, but quite honestly you must ask yourself whether it matters. The answer is probably ‘no’. In fact, by striving for aims beyond your capacity, you will define your limits with excellent consequences for the future.

TAURUS HOROSCOPE (Apr. 21 – May 21): no point at all in creating a confrontation
You may soon reach a point of no return at work. May I offer a word of advice to all ambitious Taureans? Like a good general you must only fight battles you know you can win. There is no point at all in creating a confrontation and then blowing it.
GEMINI HOROSCOPE (May 22 – June 21): begin to appreciate
You have been through some dodgy periods recently, yet somewhere along the line you will begin to appreciate that your real blessings in life are much more beneficial and lasting than unlimited fortune and adulation from others. Your real values are spiritual.
CANCER HOROSCOPE (June 22 – July 23): Avoid financial speculation
Passions run high, today. Yet, there is no reason why you should not turn tough planetary energies to your advantage. Even excitable friends may have some good sense lurking behind their crazy behaviour. Avoid financial speculation, though, for your judgment may be just a little faulty.
LEO HOROSCOPE (July 24 – Aug. 23): will soon be rescheduled
Some friends, partners and close associates still appear to be out of sorts, although if I might venture an opinion, it does seem that these people are singularly failing to make the most of their potential. Perhaps you can help. You see, you might know something they don’t.
VIRGO HOROSCOPE (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23): now that the air seems to have been cleared
You should now be back on form and determined to alter the pattern of your life. Lunar aspects may be signalling stress but that could be a good thing – inspiring you to exceed your previous best. There is someone who is waiting for you to get in touch with them and, when you do, your life could change.
LIBRA HOROSCOPE (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23): everyone will be much happier
It could be an extravagant day, and the only reason for caution could be if you are spending other people’s money. In love you need physical affection and reassurance and, at work, you should be considering promotion. It’s about time that your true talents were appreciated.
SCORPIO HOROSCOPE (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22): it’s all part of life’s rich tapestry
Now you really are heading for a pleasant romantic period. Relations with children and younger family members are set to improve and cultural pursuits are likely to take up more of your time. But when it comes to social arrangements, I suspect you’ll be bogged down in the details.
SAGITTARIUS HOROSCOPE (Nov. 23 – Dec. 22): everything you do is totally above board
A whole host of planets passing through challenging regions of your chart means that you must let other people seize the initiative. This is not obligatory, but if you try to take the lead yourself it may rebound on you, perhaps because you’ll overlook certain fundamental details.
CAPRICORN HOROSCOPE (Dec. 23 – Jan. 20): it is time to mend fences and build bridges
If you could ever find the balance between your personal interests and those of your friends and associates, you’d be a happy person. At least you should now be able to achieve a better balance with lovers, spouses and anyone with whom you’re intimately involved.
AQUARIUS HOROSCOPE (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19): a new world will open up before you
A celestial adventure is beginning, though you may require something of a kick-start to push you into action. Keep an eagle eye open for opportunities at work. For some reason, certain people in authority seem to be in a singularly inspired mood. A social invitation may offer more than seems likely at first sight.
PISCES HOROSCOPE (Feb. 20 – Mar 20): come on, Pisces – own up to being a dreamer
Today’s planetary alignment brings out a side of your character that is deep, intense and brooding. Please do channel your energies in a positive direction and be aware of the importance of your spiritual values. Give the highest priority to the truth.
