Weekly horoscope: July 26 to August 1 2010

Aries Mars is moving into Libra, your opposite sign. Between now and mid-September you must make a greater effort to listen to other people. On Friday and Saturday hasty action could get you into big trouble.

Taurus Can other people be trusted? They mean well, but they could nonetheless create a big mess. It also seems that partners and lovers feel very frustrated, and if you can’t help them you should probably stay out of their way.

Gemini Mercury moves into Virgo. Your brain moves into top gear, but you’re on best form when you’re at home, or somewhere very secluded. With laser-beam precision you can sort out the most difficult problems.

Cancer It could be a tense week. Mars, Saturn and Uranus are forming a problematic line-up, and you might feel that circumstances beyond your control are pushing you to the brink. It’s a time for talking rather than worrying.

Leo With the Sun moving through your star sign you continue to be in a strong position, but you can’t help noticing that other people are struggling to make progress. Perhaps you should lend them a hand?

Virgo Mercury moves into your star sign. It’s a great time for Virgos, when you can start making a big impression. Through the power of your speech you can take the initiative. An old aggravation loses its power.

Libra As the week progresses you’ll find yourself getting annoyed. While it’s possible that other people are being unreasonable, there’s a danger that you yourself are being intolerant. Try to be more flexible. Partners are being careless.

Scorpio In midweek Mars moves from Virgo to Libra. You might feel a temporary loss of power, and on Friday and Saturday there could be genuine problems. These problems need to be worked on, but you mustn’t be in too much of a hurry.

Sagittarius There are favourable developments in your career. You realise what needs to be done, and you’ll be helped by your complete command of the facts and figures. Don’t be afraid of arguments – logic can be your sword.

Capricorn Be very careful. It could be a very difficult week, when hardly anything runs smoothly. There could be numerous delays, and other people could be singularly unhelpful. If something’s risky, then don’t get involved.

Aquarius August is nearly here, and you might want to do some travelling. But is it really a good idea? The further away from home you get, the greater the chance that things will go wrong. It’s better to be sensible than exciting.

Pisces Don’t underestimate other people. Mercury is moving into Virgo, your opposite sign, and there are people in your life who are very smart. If you listen to what they say you’ll benefit, but if you ignore them you could end up making a fool of yourself.

Whatever your star sign, be careful out there – and have a great week!
