Weekly horoscope for May 29 - your star sign reading by Russell Grant

Aries

You've given so much time and energy to other people that you have been neglecting your own needs. Now is a good time to work on yourself. Whether this means taking a self-development course, going to see a therapist or a healer, don't feel guilty that the attention is now on you. You are worth it. Treat yourself to something nice. A strange twist of fate suggests you stand to benefit from the good luck of a partner or relative.

Taurus

A text message or email might contain news you won't be pleased to hear. This could turn out to be a blessing in disguise as not everything will be as it first appears. It will mean a lot to you to be asked to join a community project designed to help a special group of people. Your contribution will be appreciated and you will get to make a big difference to the lives of others.

Gemini

Personal plans have come to a halt. You can't continue with these until you receive a message or find the information you need. You could never be happy sitting around yawning and waiting for other people to get back to you. Instead you will make use of any time you have to catch up on a few odds and ends. As long as you are making good use of your time, you will be happy. Take any chance offered to show the world how good you are at what you do.

Cancer

Keeping control of a challenging situation will also mean keeping some thoughts to yourself. Try not to let emotion get the better of you. A friend or colleague's careless behaviour will irritate and annoy you. Unfortunately, they have friends in high places who will stand up for them. It seems unfair that some people seem to get away with anything but remember the law of karma. As they sow, so shall they reap. Keep calm and leave it to karma.

Leo

You've been through many trials and tribulations. It's important to learn from these so you don't repeat the same mistakes again. Focus on your strengths. Make choices that enable you to make better use of your skills and knowledge. Your intuition will be a helpful guide in financial and business matters. Listen to your inner voice. Medical news you have been waiting for will soon be received. This will help you discuss this matter further with your family.

Virgo

Time spent alone will give you a chance to decide on your priorities. You aren't wasting time if you're considering new ways to help others. You're also looking at how to increase your earning power. Don't tell yourself you aren't capable of handling new responsibilities. Instead be ready to pit yourself against any competition. A comment made by a friend or workmate will help you see a dilemma in a different way and from this point you will find it easier to plan your future.

Libra

You might sense a younger colleague is making a mistake. They're trying to hide the fact that they're out of their depth. Trust your intuition if you feel you can help them. Question their decisions in a way that they won't feel you are interfering or criticising. Check they've understood what they have been asked to do. Activities with children and younger people will drain your energy but the fun you get out of this will make it all worth it.

Scorpio

A big decision is causing you some hesitation. Normally your intuition tells you that you're on the right track. These days you can't get a feel for what could lie ahead. Steer clear of people who are known to use others for their own ends. A friend who has known you for years wants to give you some advice. Don't act as if you resent this. It could be they know you better than you think they do. You just might be grateful for their words of wisdom.

Sagittarius

An offer to get involved in a group project may sound exciting at first. This opportunity may not live up to your expectations and the satisfaction you expected to get out of it will be minimal. Worrying about a coming event makes you tense and nervous. Focus your mind on something else. Keep yourself occupied and spread your thoughts around a little more. You will soon be able to push negative feelings from your mind.

Capricorn

Relationships are generally harmonious but there is someone you are trying to avoid. A recent argument preys on your mind. If this friendship is important to you, it may be time to forgive and forget. Are you single? Someone will make it clear they are attracted to you. You have a magnetic personality and they seem to be finding you irresistible. If you already have a partner, don't be tempted to stray.

Aquarius

Taking on extra work, whether it is an evening job or weekend job could be the answer to your financial problems. Studying for a higher qualification could help you advance in your chosen career. Look around at the opportunities that are opening up for you now. If there's something you really want to do, don't wait for anyone's permission. Assert yourself to the full. Keep a clear head in readiness for the challenges that are ahead.

Pisces

You're holding back your thoughts because you and a partner or best friend don't share the same views. You would rather not admit to how you really feel as it could cause contention. Instead this is causing confusion. Some people will assume you agree with them if you don't say otherwise. You need to stop going along with others because it suits them. If your life revolves around keeping people happy, you need to make some changes.
