Capricorn March 2016

16 March

The little things you say can have a mighty impact on those who hear you--but this should only lead you to ask: who on earth is listening?

15 March

The only way to get to grips with the tension around you is to get to grips with the tension within you. Not everything has an external cause.

14 March

So what are you going to do with the rest of us mucky pups? We might need a good talking to and a little help in refocusing on the important stuff.

13 March

You're doing an awful lot of talking (or at least it may seem like). But s anyone listening? And more importantly, is anyone doing as you suggest?

12 March

To take a gamble or to play it safe, that is the big question today. Sometimes you do have to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune--but sometimes it all pays off.

11 March

Can anyone follow instructions today? Um, no they can't. Speak clearly, slowly and be prepared to repeat yourself (by the way the problem might be you!).

6 March

Stop playing on the internet and go have some fun with real people. Networking has its place but so does talking with real people.

5 March

Give yourself extra time for those short journeys. You'll be surprised by how much those little delays can really set you back.

4 March

You like to play it safe but yet you know you need to do something a little different. It's true you need to be loyal to your family but liberating yourself from more mundane affairs means you can achieve much more. (Hint: try asking for help!)

3 March

Today is a great day to listen to your inner voice. Is it critical of you and/or your choices. If so, it's time you silenced the inner critic and do what you know to be right.

2 March

Bouts of isolation can leave you feeling as if you are behind on everything. But hold on: what was the cause of these times of feeling isolated? It's time to rethink how and why you do things. The best time to implement these is on the New Moon on the 9th.

Monthly Horoscope

There are lots of things you would like to be getting on with but your attention in drawn to fixing all the things that are not working the way you would like them to. Which essentially means your bogged down in nitty-gritty details instead of making strides in far more important areas in your life. The New Moon (a solar eclipse) on the 9^th indicates a time for you to begin reflecting on how you communicate with others: are people listening to you and if they are, are they remembering the important messages. Do remember that you will be attracting sensitive people this month so take extra care in the manner in which you get your communications across. The Full Moon (a penumbral lunar eclipse) on the 23^rd is the time you can be more forthright in expressing what it is that you truly want--and you can expect a short, sharp answer to your request.
