YOU’s resident astrologer Sally Brompton reveals your horoscope for 11th-17th October 2021. So, what does the week have in store?
SCORPIO
24 Oct-22 Nov
Used the right way, power can be a force for good. But the planets warn that those who seek it to gratify their own desires always pay for it in the end. Bear that thought in mind this week before you reach out to take something you’re not entitled to.
SAGITTARIUS
23 Nov-21 Dec
Venus in your birth sign makes you believe the world is your friend and to a degree it is. But other aspects warn that if you take too much for granted this week you will annoy someone in authority – and suddenly the world won’t seem so friendly.
CAPRICORN
22 Dec-20 Jan
Someone will pull rank on you this week but there’s no point in getting upset as they’ve got the power. Keep your feelings to yourself and don’t let them know they’ve got under your skin. Revenge, they say, is a dish best served cold. So bide your time.
AQUARIUS
21 Jan-19 Feb
You may have to twist a few arms this week but you will rather enjoy playing tough guy for a change. Just make sure you only make life tough for your rivals and opponents. If you use strong-arm tactics on your friends, they won’t be your friends much longer.
PISCES
20 Feb-20 March
The only thing holding you back is a chronic inability to make up your mind. But the planets warn that if you don’t make a work or career decision soon, someone else will – and there’s no guarantee that what is decided for you will be to your liking.
ARIES
21 March-20 April
Someone you meet on your travels this week will become very important to you. They may be younger or older than you but you’ll be on the same wavelength mentally, emotionally and spiritually. You’ll have much to teach each other.
TAURUS
21 April-21 May
Sometimes it’s best to back off and seek a compromise – like now. With Venus, your ruler, linked to authoritative Saturn, it should not be too hard to persuade employers and others in authority that it would be better if you were on the same side.
GEMINI
22 May-21 June
There are times when it’s wise to leave things to fate and this is one of them. Cosmic activity in your fellow air signs indicates that you are under divine protection just now and no one can hurt you if you go with the flow. Who would want to try anyway?
CANCER
22 June-23 July
Being efficient yourself, you can get annoyed when others drag their feet – as is likely to happen this week. But there’s no point in losing your temper, as those who think and act that slow are incapable of responding. Accept it as part of life’s rich tapestry.
LEO
24 July-23 Aug
Before you take what you want this week, think about how it might affect your long-term aims. Your solar chart warns that if you act in a selfish manner now others will act selfishly towards you later on. What goes around comes around in the end.
VIRGO
24 Aug-23 Sept
It may feel as if the world is ganging up on you this week, or you may feel that you alone don’t know what’s going on. Either way, you are wrong. No one is out to get you or keeping things from you. It’s just your imagination playing tricks – as usual.
LIBRA
24 Sept-23 Oct
Let friends and family know what you’re planning this week and invite them to join in if they have something to contribute. This is a great time to strengthen bonds that may have loosened, and how better to do it than collaborate on something important?
