130 years ago today, New Zealand granted women the right to vote. But ‘grant’ suggests this basic right was a gracious gift (instead of a long overdue correction).

As the Sun moves opposite Neptune, it’s time to question where power and control keep things running smoothly (yet fail to take everyone’s needs into consideration). 

Sometimes admitting to a mistake can be a catalyst for empowering change.

ARIES 

March 21 – April 20

There are times when things seem to fall miraculously into place. It’s as if all our guardian angels have got together and are working their magic. Then along comes one of life’s inevitable challenges… and we have to accept that if something’s worth fighting for, we need to roll up our sleeves and invest energy and effort. You could easily sideline tackling an important objective today. There are other more fun (easier) things to do. But if you’re prepared to go the extra mile, you’ll find cosmic assistance is on hand.

TAURUS 

April 21 – May 21

If planet Earth wasn’t being governed by nitwits, we’d all be leading much better lives… wouldn’t we? It’s a consoling thought. But, as the old saying goes, ‘no matter who you vote for, the government always get in’! Of course, the actions and decisions made by people in power influence our lives. But we always have the power to choose how much we’re affected. Today’s Sun-Neptune link brings the insight to see a recent setback (not of your own making) in a different light. Then, you can use it to your advantage.

GEMINI 

May 22 – June 22

I recently rewatched the movie ‘Annie’, and that song, ‘The sun will come out tomorrow’ keeps going round my head. I mention it, because its inspirational message feels appropriate for you today. Not that you’re in a similar situation to the main character. But a set of circumstances have contrived to leave you feeling disadvantaged, and having to fend for yourself. You don’t have access to your usual support systems. So, why the song? Mercury, your ruler, now moving forwards, brings a message of hope. Sunny days are on the way.

CANCER 

June 23 – July 23

The saying ‘there’s no gain without pain’ has infiltrated our collective psyche. Which is great. It means that whenever we want to make a gain, we just have to find a source of pain. But what kind of pain do we need to experience? Does mentally berating ourselves do the trick? Will being self-critical automatically further our cause? Only a very particular kind of struggle will get you the result you want today. And the good news, is that under the Sun-Neptune link, that struggle will prove to be much less painful than you expect.

LEO 

July 24 – August 23

In some ways, you’re very aware of your image. Which (by the way) doesn’t mean you’re vain. Some Leos don’t give a hoot about their physical appearance. But that doesn’t mean they don’t care about the overall impression they make. You’re dealing with a situation where you want to present yourself as a person with integrity and strength. But the desire not to be seen as weak is a weakness. As your ruler links with Neptune, feel empowered to be yourself. You’re more than good enough. Authenticity is key today.

VIRGO 

August 24 – September 23

Some of the issues you’re dealing with have to be resolved. There are others though, that you’d like to resolve. And (annoyingly) these don’t seem to be imminently resolvable. So, you’re putting yourself under pressure. And piling on the stress. With your ruler, Mercury, settling into forward motion, it’s about to get much easier to deal with the backlog of tasks that’s making you uncomfortable. But you still can’t sort everything with a wave of a wand. Today, just focus on what really needs to be attended to. That’s enough.

There’s no need to worry. All you need is some guidance. Your in-depth forecasts can help. www.cainer.com/daily-horoscope

LIBRA 

September 24 – October 23

Something’s troubling you. Someone’s actions don’t seem to align with their intentions. The challenge, is that their manner is so convincing, it’s easy to think you’re imagining things. Or that you’re overreacting. Yet your doubts haven’t come from nowhere. They’re not based on delusions or fantasies. As the Sun opposes intuitive Neptune, it’s an ideal time to ask questions. You might not like being the person who has to address this issue. But, as a diplomatic Libran, you’re more than able to tackle it in a constructive way.

SCORPIO 

October 24 – November 22

No one’s perfect. We’ve all got less-than-desirable habits. We all make mistakes. We all have regrets. And we all want to compensate for our faults. What we don’t all do though, is try to push beyond these self-criticisms and focus on our strengths. And, as a result, we tend to settle for modest aspirations. You’re not the kind of person who feels happy with compromise. Good. If you reach for the highest standard now, you might not attain it immediately. But, if you stay motivated, you’ll start to get pleasingly close.

SAGITTARIUS 

November 23 – December 21

When we’re feeling unsettled, it’s helpful to remember that no one on planet Earth ever feels totally emotionally secure. We’d all like to have more of what makes us happy. Right now, though, you’d be happy with a greater sense of security. Relationships make us vulnerable. Since they’re subject to change, they always involve an element of risk. Our financial situations are similarly uncertain. When you’re aware that your sense of security stems from how you feel (rather than what you have) you’ll find a sense of comfort today.

You’ve got lots to look forward to. The inspiration you need is in your in-depth forecasts at www.cainer.com/daily-horoscope

CAPRICORN 

December 22 – January 20

If life was like a swimming pool, some people would stay in the shallow end; having fun (but never going out of their depth). When we haven’t learned to swim, we just watch other folk diving into the deeper water. We might be jealous of their courage and sense of adventure… but, if we see them struggling to get to the side, we feel slightly smug. How silly of them to have taken such a risk. You’re heading into deeper waters now. Don’t be anxious. Your technique doesn’t need to be perfect. And the experience will be exhilarating.

AQUARIUS 

January 21 – February 19

Your dreams of what’s possible don’t need to stay in the realms of your imagination. Your goals aren’t mere follies or fantasies. They’re real possibilities. They come, after all, from your mind. They’re based on your knowledge and crafted by your experience. To achieve them requires application, and the dedication to work, diligently, towards fulfilling them. Yes, you’re going to have to push to achieve what’s possible. But, with enthusiasm (plus the luck coming your way), you can take steps towards the success you dream of.

PISCES 

February 20 – March 20

‘Murphy’s Law’ is the saying that says that ‘anything that can go wrong, will go wrong’. In one aspect of your world, this rule seems to be applicable. No matter what you do, you can’t make something happen the way you want. Yet although it’s understandable why you might want to write something off as being ‘fated to failure’, don’t do that. As your ruler, Neptune, links with the Sun, it shines sunshine onto your gloomy prognosis. Today brings reasons to feel more optimistic. Everything that could go right, just might go right.
