Mystic Meg reveals why it’s time to transform your life – from launching your own business to travelling the world. Get set, go…

ARIES

March 21 – April 20

You want your life to change and with a little self-belief, you can take on
anything – no sweat!

JOBS You’re determined to make your mark (and this year you will!) but
in order to succeed, you need to find ways to be in control. Aim to run
things without someone looking over your shoulder. Taking the initiative
wins trust and brings recognition for your honesty and dedication. And with
Jupiter in your personality chart until June, you find yourself taking
centre stage at work.

Key to success: be daring but smart.

Top jobs: fitness instructor, hairdresser, paramedic.

April 3: a new moon brings a life-changing offer.

November 23: you pass a challenging test.

MONEY You’ll be disciplined about finances as the year begins. In the
summer, prosperous Jupiter moves into your money chart and brings many
goodies. An extra job that feels more like fun is a cash booster and you can
wave goodbye to debts on the plastic. Now you can start saving for that
dream item you’ve had your eye on. Watching funds grow for a special
occasion gives you a wonderful glow. Wear diamonds – they’re your lucky
charm!

Big event: fund-raising for a favourite charity brings friends as well
as cash.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Set ambitious goals and live life differently.
You’re so active that if you can steer yourself in a constant direction,
you’ll achieve everything you desire. One of the highlights of your year is
that you put down roots and make a place truly yours. Once you’ve made a
real commitment, you’ll be free. Inner peace gives you the strength to say
yes to a more adventurous life.


TAURUS

April 21 – May 21

Make fast decisions and you’ll re-energise both work and money – music to
your ears…

JOBS Build on what you’ve already achieved by following your hunches to
make working life more rewarding. Be positive and you’ll get noticed.
Jupiter, planet of growth, will bring you so much help if you think big.
Training for a new job or going for a promotion might seem daunting at
first, but stick at it and you’ll be rewarded. From April, inspirational
planet Neptune shows you a way into the entertainment world.

Key to success: add hard work to your natural talent.

Top jobs: beauty, banking, session singer.

March 15: this is the time to take on more responsibility.

October 26: you’ll lead the winning team.

MONEY Earning opportunities pop up all year, especially from friends or
family abroad, so you won’t be left wanting, but investigate a sob story in
the spring or it could cost you dearly. Impulse buys are not your thing but
you’re tempted in June. Resist! In the autumn, you’ll rake in some cash, so
pay off debts and look for new ways to increase your income. Choose emeralds
as your lucky charm.

Big event: your name is called out as the winner of a spectacular
prize.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Trust that hard work will bring you closer to your
dreams. You’re full of enthusiasm and daring ideas bring you good fortune.
In the summer, Jupiter in your sign fulfils your dreams. A swish holiday,
perhaps somewhere in the sun, is a highlight of your year. You’ll be more
optimistic and obstacles are quickly overcome. Above all, remember that luck
is on your side!


GEMINI

May 22 – June 21

You’re able to accept life’s creative challenges calmly in 2011. Go with
the flow for big success.

JOBS You start the year on a roll. Friends keep your enthusiasm level
high and offer new work ideas that inspire you to make that change you’ve
been dreaming of. Neptune journeys through your ambition zone in late
spring, bringing out your creative talents, and a holiday by the sea leads
to a second job. An animal-rescue organisation features in your life in
autumn – it leads to an influential friendship that helps further your
career.

Key to success: use your imagination.

Top jobs: PR, sales, radio producer.

June 17: you’re a creative genius.

December 10: a wild hope becomes a reality.

MONEY Pluto, planet of the unexpected, is reorganising your finances
and cash arrives in ways that surprise you as much as they please you. A
favour you did in the past is repaid in a generous way, and the relative you
would least expect to gamble shares a cash prize with you. But in the autumn
your generosity goes into overdrive and it’s important not to make promises
that would be too expensive to keep. The gemstone agate draws luck into your
life.

Big event: a photograph you take is a huge success.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO De-stress your life by keeping busy. You’re a
multitasker at heart and this year you prove you have what it takes to
juggle different jobs and roles in life. Staying proactive and keeping busy
helps calm your restless nature. Eclipses in your sign in June and December
herald key turning points, and a complete change in the way you dress means
the outer you reflects your true personality.


CANCER

June 22 – July 22

You have grand designs for this year – believe in them and they will work
out.

JOBS Exciting news in February moves you forward and makes you
determined to complete a work project. Jupiter sets up lucky breaks – you
settle in a new career by the summer and keep your new-found zest for life.
You’ll have a sideline as a writer – but be careful when basing characters
on your colleagues!

Key to success: reveal your ambitions.

Top jobs: restaurant management, interior design, caring professions.

April 6: a call from a former boss leaves you with big decisions to
make.

July 1: two signatures on a contract can change everything.

MONEY You’ll have the shrewd plans and gritty determination needed to
resolve a situation that’s held you back financially and emotionally. This
in turn helps you overcome your reluctance to talk about money, so much more
will flow your way. By midsummer, you add business sense to creative ideas
and turn them into moneymakers. Pearls are your lucky charms.

Big event: you organise a fantastic summer celebration for family and
friends.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Believe anything is possible. You feel capable and
back in charge of your destiny. Use your family life as a safe base to
spread your wings and embrace an adventurous lifestyle. Neptune brings a
highlight of your year – a big trip to America or Australia. Treat yourself
with the care you give to others. That way, you’ll boost your self-esteem
and make loved ones proud.


LEO

July 23 – August 23

Think international! You’ll learn new languages and develop life-changing
ideas.

JOBS Your brave, fiery spirit takes risks and pioneers new ventures,
especially when it comes to travel and the entertainment world. But you’re
loyal to those who have given you chances in the past. Throughout the year,
Saturn helps you to market your skills better than ever before, and you’re
in demand. From June onwards, you have a winner’s instinct – trust it.

Key to success: courage and know-how are a winning combination this
year.

Top jobs: teaching, advertising, midwifery.

July 7: you have the power to change other people’s lives.

October 29: your ideas gain an international award.

MONEY While your mind races with a dozen things you could buy, to your
surprise you decide to spend some unexpected money on education. In June,
you find a genius way to organise a partner’s finances – but be tactful! Big
money arrives for you in September. You’ll enjoy being generous to those who
help you, but don’t overdo it. Think of your future security, too. Wear a
gold bracelet – it’s Leo’s lucky charm.

Big event: You watch a loved one win a sports prize.

This is the year to Make things real. You want so much from life, and this
year has a lot to offer – but your realistic streak knows that the monthly
bank balance matters, too. Focus on that, and by autumn you’ll have enough
for life’s luxuries. A highlight of your year is being given the keys to a
holiday villa – and then realising it’s yours for life. Yes, in 2011, you’re
going global.


VIRGO

August 24 – September 22

Welcoming change and making valuable family discoveries help you to thrive
in 2011.

JOBS Adaptability and common sense may not sound exciting, but they are
the way you make progress. Jupiter will help you see changes in a positive
light – and colleagues look to you for leadership. In June, a powerful
eclipse could bring a work opportunity unlike anything you’ve done before,
but it means overcoming a reluctance to push yourself forward. Ideas for a
family-style business look good too – with you in charge!

Key to success: bring out the best in others.

Top jobs: nutrition expert, librarian, boutique owner.

March 19: your boss asks a question full of hidden meaning.

August 29: the perfect time to launch a new business.

MONEY With frugal Saturn still in your cash zone, you’re an expert at
saving money. And research you do into your own family background leads to
some unclaimed wealth. You’ll do well with earnings in summer, perhaps by
having two Jobs for a while. October is expensive but mostly because you’re
spending on a massive family reunion. Be sure to wear a topaz ring as your
lucky charm.

Big event: discovering a well-known name in your family tree.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Become a mentor. You know you’re in charge of your
own life and have the power to make your hopes come true. But you gain even
more satisfaction from being a mentor, giving other people the confidence
they need to be happy. Celebrating your birthday in a romantic location with
your dream man reminds you of all that is good about being alive. Pure
bliss!


LIBRA

September 23 – October 23

Neptune moves into your work zone and helps you turn your creative talents
into a success.

JOBS Serious Saturn spends a second year in your sign to revive
ambitions. Second tries are more successful than the first and you’ll enjoy
proving your doubters wrong. Stay focused on work and be heartened by a
loved one’s success. A positive attitude helps you win friends and favours,
and some volunteer work you do in your spare time this summer leads to a
brilliant opportunity in October.

Key to success: keep on believing and you will get there.

Top jobs: social worker, beautician, fashion designer.

July 1: the eclipse sets up the luckiest meeting of your life.

September 23: dress to impress.

MONEY You love luxury and get a secret thrill from spending more than
you should, but all that changes in the spring when you become cash savvy
and your natural sense of style helps you look wonderful on a strict budget.
Passing on your fashion tips to others then becomes a profitable sideline.
You’ll be able to set up a savings plan in the autumn that gives you
confidence and helps you achieve your goals. Wear opals for good luck.

Big event: the internet could make you good money if you team up with
an Aquarius.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Plan your strategy with precision! A persistent and
detailed approach to everything you do pays off. A highlight of 2011 is that
Neptune inspires your creative side, but you need to be organised. A
business training course puts you at the top of your game. Stay focused on
what you want to achieve in the future, insteadof dwelling on the past, and
you’ll succeed!


SCORPIO

October 24 – November 22

Ambition is reborn and you have the charisma to seek out and achieve your
goals.

JOBS Fiery Mars turns up the heat with two job opportunities in the
spring. Dare to go for the one that fulfils a personal ambition. You’re at
your most determined and optimistic when flying solo, but after June, join
forces to create a working partnership. Your talent-spotting skills could
give you the edge at work.

Key to success: discover other people’s talents.

Top jobs: detective, publicity agent, counsellor.

May 1: a conversation at a racecourse inspires you.

July 30: a Leo could make you richer.

MONEY Eclipses in your money zone in June and November bring dramatic
financial developments. Your mystery-solving skills help you track down
long-lost items of great value – and you win big around the time of your
birthday thanks to a very generous gift. You’ll start to use your money
wisely and get satisfaction from a secret bank account. Wear topaz – it’s
your lucky-star jewel.

Big event: turning a family dream into reality is worth more than
money.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Find a brilliant way to get your message across.
Your mentor planet Pluto is in your communication zone and you’ll find that
your words have great power. It’s the perfect time to write a blog, market
your ideas or find your own USP (unique selling point). A powerful
individual helps you turn your brainwaves into reality and a highlight of
2011 is that other people will be earning money for you – just make sure
that you keep believing in yourself.


SAGITTARIUS

November 23 – December 21

Embrace change – you’ll be living a very different life in 2011… and
loving it!

JOBS Jupiter drives everything forward, so it’s time to dust off your
dreams. Accepting new challenges pushes you to the limits but brings
thrills. Your enthusiasm impresses, your ideas are good and you’re ready to
speak up and be heard. Things are set to change in the summer when a new job
is slow but sure. Show you’re committed and let things happen gradually –
you’ll be glad you did.

Key to success: say yes to out-of-the-blue opportunities.

Top jobs: hospitality, travel, scriptwriting.

April 6: prove you can keep an amazing secret.

October 9: a spooky coincidence brings success.

MONEY Cash rushes in but with your extravagant streak it easily rushes
out again, so nail it down and be sure you have enough left when bills
arrive. Saturn in your friendship chart brings golden advice from a sensible
friend (it may not be what you want to hear, but you should accept it). In
the autumn, older relatives want to invest in you and a personal project
takes off. Wear turquoise as your lucky charm.

Big event: think Antiques Roadshow and a great discovery in the attic.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Get hands-on. Spectacular, enterprising energy
makes even your wildest wishes come true, but it’s got to be matched with a
practical approach, so don’t get too carried away. More training improves
your prospects and a highlight of 2011 is that you’ll learn a great deal
from a guru-type or someone very experienced. Listen up and the stars will
help you spruce up your world and realise your dreams.


CAPRICORN

December 22 – January 20

You wow the world with news about the kind of future you want to build.

JOBS Your working world is changing and in the spring you’ll improve
daily routines and free up time for intriguing developments in your private
life. Friends show you how to have fun and still remain a high achiever.
Your planet, conscientious Saturn, makes October very successful for your
reputation, and a friendly female boss brings a promotion that benefits both
of you. Something in the news helps spark a fresh business idea.

Key to success: work hard and play hard.

Top jobs: management, police officer, estate agent.

March 28: a bold signature gives plans the green light.

September 29: your name goes on a new office door.

MONEY You make steady progress with money and help others to avoid
risky ventures in the spring. In both July and October money pours in and
delayed cash arrives, allowing you to move on with financial plans,
especially for a house. With your disciplined, super-smart planning, you’ll
end the year much better off – and not just financially. Wear garnet
jewellery as a lucky charm.

Big event: designing your new home reveals a true talent.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Look and feel fantastic. With Jupiter in the
foundations of your chart, you sense deep down that this is going to be a
turning-point year. You make an unbreakable promise to be your personal best
via a healthy-living plan and embrace all that’s new. Best of all, you know
that the best decisions are the ones you make for yourself. Expect a magical
meeting at a high-profile event to make your year.


AQUARIUS

January 21 – February 18

You set up a gift-filled year in which you finally break free from routine
and upgrade your life.

JOBS Everything about your working life gets an upgrade in March, when
your mentor planet Uranus tells you it’s time for a fresh start and gives
you some genius ideas. Some of these are designed to impress the bosses –
but the most inventive ones help you set up a freelance business. You’ve
been hiding your light, and have so much to offer.

Key to success: have the courage to be exactly what you want to be.

Top jobs: social work, catering, complementary medicine.

March 21: someone important recognises your talent.

July 5: you speak to an audience and get a brilliant reaction.

MONEY You could earn a significant amount of money in the spring from
something you make or design. In summer, meeting your work hero changes your
life, so be ready with an emergency fund that will allow you to take
advantage of sudden opportunities. Watch out for tempting but
too-good-to-be-true schemes in October and don’t risk what you can’t afford
to lose. Wear aquamarine jewellery – it’s your lucky charm.

Big event: a mysterious luxury gift is perfect but be careful who you
thank for it!

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Break free from old patterns. You take control of
your life and see brilliant progress in all areas. Your energy and intuition
are awesome, but beware of being too trusting in business or money matters.
Inspiration is great but hard work must follow to stop opportunities being a
flash in the pan. The highlight of your year is the love and respect you get
from the people who matter to you most.


PISCES

February 19 – March 20

You earn the kind of money that helps you gravitate towards your perfect
life.

JOBS A job that makes you proud of what you do and supplies all the
money you need may seem like an unachievable dream, but as inspiring planet
Neptune moves into your birth sign, you find it. There could be an exciting
change of location in November, when your enthusiasm and talent is exactly
what an overseas company is looking for.

Key to success: work with people who share your values.

Top jobs: dancer, photography, therapy.

April 4: a new job means a very different way of dressing.

June 15: kindness gets better results than criticism.

MONEY Innovative planet Uranus moves into your money zone in March,
calling your values into question and forcing you to make some difficult
decisions. You will have more cash, but what should you do with it? You may
not be a secret millionaire (yet!) but you’re looking for ways to spend that
make a difference. Think green. This year you can live well, support others
and help good causes – it’s your ideal life! Wear amethyst jewellery as your
lucky charm.

Big event: an adventurous charity challenge takes you on a big journey.

THIS IS THE YEAR TO Let your imagination fly free. Neptune in your sign
from April to August gives you the power to heal all kinds of relationships
– even the ones you’d given up on. Your imagination reaches a lifetime high
– and it’s great for ideas. On or around June 9, Jupiter brings the
highlight of your year as you merge the spiritual with the material, and a
property or place feels heaven-sent – as does the person who shares it with
you.
