It’s Friday, January 17 and one star sign will receive good luck when they need it most.
There are 12 zodiac signs – Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces – and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.
These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here’s what today could bring for your horoscope – and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Someone who has been taking a very independent and stubborn stance of late, will suddenly start to acknowledge your opinions as well. Once you both open up and talk, it will be easier to find common ground on how you might move forward together in the future.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
You may not feel like you’re in the best shape but you are managing just fine. To keep things on track, brace yourself for a flood of requests that are likely to come your way from all sorts of unexpected places. You can manage this and you will handle it well.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
People are impressed by your skills and knowledge. You will feel a great sense of pride in what you have accomplished so far. Don’t be surprised if a friend or colleague seeks you out for your guidance and support. By this evening, you will be eager for some personal space to relax.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
Regardless of your feelings about a situation, you will sense that embracing change is the only way forward now. Your goals have become more ambitious and to achieve them, you may need to adapt and brace yourself for some challenges along the way.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
It has been easy to fall into the habit of dedicating your time and energy to those who seem to need it without giving it a second thought. If you pause and reflect on how exhausting this can be, you might realise it is time to take a breather and think about your health.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
Some help, support or good luck will show up just when you need it most. What appeared to be a looming failure will turn into a chance for success. This will also be the exact moment when things start to brighten after a stressful time.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
You feel more connected with your family, especially older relatives. This could get you thinking about exploring your family background or learning about important events from the past that have made a difference to your relatives and deserve to be shared.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
There are people or places from your past you need to let go of in order to make way for new experiences. This could involve a separation from someone you have been with for years or stepping away from a long-held position. Such a transition is never easy but it is necessary for your future happiness.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
You will not have been expecting how well everything is coming together. It is good to acknowledge that all your hard work has been worthwhile. You have achieved a lot but this is just the beginning and while you have plenty to celebrate, you are on the verge of another exciting phase.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
There’s something captivating about turning your attention to your dreams. You might not see yourself as a daydreamer but your imagination is in overdrive at the moment. Just be careful not to get lost in unrealistic fantasies. There are several paths to choose from now.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
You will be in touch with someone who works for a newspaper or magazine or who hosts an impressive website. This will open up new avenues to the media and wider community. An accomplished executive will support ideas that are linked to your professional aspirations.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Private concerns will be your main focus. Issues of a personal nature occupy your thoughts and keep playing on repeat in your mind. Even when you try to shake them off, they won’t budge and this is likely to make you more introspective than usual.
