Today’s daily horoscopes

The Moon in your sign meets Neptune, and a noble purpose could become irresistible before its details are clear. Find out whether the person involved wants your intervention, Aries. They may have an inconvenient preference for handling their own affairs. Good intentions will give you plenty to say in your defence if your assistance makes the matter worse.

Your memory is being particularly generous to an old attachment. Recall the habits as carefully as the tenderness, Taurus, before deciding it deserves another chance. Someone’s ability to be charming was never the part you had difficulty believing. The Sun beside retrograde Venus makes the recollection appealing; it need not make the unfinished business any easier.

Someone who enjoys talking to you might reasonably believe you want to see them again. If you are only enjoying the attention, Gemini, stop making arrangements you hope will remain pleasantly vague. The Sun is close to retrograde Venus; an old habit of keeping possibilities open deserves another look before somebody takes you seriously.

What exactly was agreed, Cancer? You seem disappointed by an understanding nobody else remembers reaching. The Moon meets Neptune in Aries, making a wish surprisingly easy to mistake for an expectation. Give the other person a chance to hear your preferred arrangement before asking them to explain why they failed to honour it.

Look closely at the criticism you are preparing to offer. Another person’s confidence has grown, Leo, and your approval seems to matter rather less to them. Is that the difficulty? If their success only became objectionable once they stopped asking your permission, consider what you intend to achieve by explaining how badly they are handling it.

Mercury square Jupiter makes a comprehensive explanation tempting when the available facts are irritatingly incomplete. Leave the gaps alone for a little longer, Virgo. A conclusion will be less troublesome to defend if you allow the evidence to arrive first. You could spend the wait imagining what happened; do remember whose imagination supplied it afterwards.

Mention the difficulty while you can still speak civilly, Libra. An arrangement you have kept pleasant for everyone else has begun to ask too much of your own wishes. Resentment will make the eventual explanation harder to hear. With the Sun beside retrograde Venus, there is reason to reconsider what you agreed to before deciding how generously you ought to endure it.

With the Sun now in your sign beside Venus, your wishes may be difficult to ignore. The Sun’s square to Pluto makes it worth asking how much room you leave for anyone else’s. State what you want without treating hesitation as disloyalty, Scorpio. People can take you seriously and still require time to decide whether they agree.

Ask the person describing a better life about the ordinary effort involved. Their confidence is appealing, Sagittarius, and it would be pleasant to believe that following the direction is all you need to do. They can give you an inspiring account without intending to accompany you up the difficult stretch. Find out where their involvement ends before promising yours.

Before accepting the demand, ask what will happen if you refuse. Someone being disappointed is a consequence you could occasionally permit, Capricorn, particularly when they have learned how reliably it gets them your time. Today’s sense of obligation deserves a closer look. The urgency seems remarkably convenient for the person whose problem it was until they spoke to you.

Read the terms, Aquarius. An appealing cause can acquire surprisingly unreasonable conditions once you stop examining what is demanded in its name. You have a fine appetite for independent thought. It would be embarrassing to suspend it whenever the invitation sounds sufficiently like your own opinions, then discover how little disagreement your allies intend to permit.

How understanding you can be about somebody’s poor behaviour, Pisces. Have you consulted the person who had to endure it? Their account might complicate the tender explanation you have prepared. Offering forgiveness on somebody else’s behalf is an inexpensive way to display your generosity; let the injured person decide whether they are equally inclined to provide it.
