OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.
Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today.
ARIES
March 21 to April 20
Neptune’s influence on you has been slow and steady but now intensifies. So if you feel unexpected emotions rising up, pay attention – they can be telling you something important.
Work-wise, you have smart public speaking ability.
If you haven’t tested this yet, now is a great time to start.
TAURUS
April 21 to May 21
All the off-beat ideas and innovations of planet Uranus are at work.
This time round, even when your plans seem out of the ordinary, you can stand by them and push forward.
In love terms, this can lead to a sense of shared freedom for a couple.
If you’re single, The One starts to cool but hides inner heat.

May 22 to June 21
You have Mercury’s ability right now to keep looking for ways to get a deal over the line – giving up is not a Gemini option.

June 22 to July 22
Love transformation is your star theme – just one small change in your attitude can be enough to swing a passion decision your way.
But this change must come from you – don’t let anyone else make the decision.
It’s in your nature to dwell about what could go wrong in love – just focus on what feels right.

LEO
July 23 to August 23
The most sensitive of planets is affecting your chart and you could feel vulnerable as a result – but this is good for love, as it can break a barrier between a couple that’s been getting bigger lately.
If you’re single, you recognise what you really need, rather than what you may think you want.
Luck wears apricot.
