Horoscope By Quinn
ARIES (March 21st to April 19th) A person is your guiding element at the moment. Seek out anyone and anything to do with it, no matter how remote. Keep your plans fluid and try not to be tied down with arrangements you may later wish to cancel. The same goes for personal relationships. You are likely to meet several people who will attract you in passing. If you try to cling you may end up getting hurt. A chance at work for you to shine is at last, about to arrive.
TAURUS (April 20th to May 20th) This is one of those maddening times when everything seems to go the wrong way. You will find things you say will be misunderstood as will things you do. Do nothing contentious and say nothing controversial, better still say nothing. Seek out the company of friends who understand you and accept your quirky ways. From long experience they will accept you for what you are and you will avoid upsetting anyone.
GEMINI (May 21st to June 21st) A calm fortnight with few problems of any importance. Take it easy, face things one at a time and relax. This last is most important. You are very much in need of relaxation, mentally and physically. If you find it difficult then get a book on the subject, better still join a club specialising in it. This will be doubly good for you because it will take you out of yourself and help the relaxation process.

WIN TICKETS TO SEE
Samantha Womack, Les Dennis and Carrie Hope Fletcher will star as Morticia, Fester and Wednesday Addams in the UK & Irish premiere of THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a musical comedy, with book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, and music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa, based on the characters created by Charles Addams. Samantha Womack will take on the role of
Morticia Addams fresh from leaving BBC1’s EastEnders after nearly a decade as Ronnie Mitchell. Samantha has also played Tanya Dawson for three series of the hit comedy Mount Pleasant (Sky1) and, on film she will be reprising her role next summer as Michelle Unwin in Kingsman: The Golden Circle. Les Dennis as Fester spent the last three years playing burglar-turned-Romeo, Michael Rodwell, in ITV’s Coronation Street.
CANCER (June 22nd to July 22nd) Take a tip from an old hand and don’t let all your trumps out in the first game. Your strength at the moment lies in your ability to appear mysterious. If the opposition doesn’t know what you are about to do, they can hardly be prepared. If the opportunity arises this week, go on an outing to somewhere new. Don’t be surprised if you feel you have been there before. You haven’t but this feeling is something that tells you, you have made the right choice.
LEO (July 23rd to August 22nd) If you can’t make up your mind about a recent proposition, go for broke. It is not certain that you will come out on top, trouble is, neither option open to you is particularly well starred. You do though, stand a better chance with an all out effort than you do shilly-shallying about with half measures, so go to it. Don’t undertake any new jobs at the moment. You have enough on your plate and this must be sorted out before you get involved with something different.
VIRGO (August 23rd to September 22nd) This is one of those times when you should avoid human contact as much as possible and seek diversion elsewhere. In the matter of relationships this is just not your week. Better by far to keep away and avoid trouble. Mind you, the problem is not all on your side. You are however not able to cope with the pressures of argument at the moment, so don’t. Why not take the opportunity to give the old body a good going over. You have neglected it of late.
LIBRA (September 23rd to October 23rd) Go quietly about your business, keep your own counsel and avoid standing out in a crowd. It won’t be easy but if you can achieve anonymity you will be surprised at what you will learn. The future of a close relationship bears heavily on the outcome of your observations and although it may hurt or annoy you at the start, after a while you will realise that all has been for the best and it will cease to bother you.
Immediately prior to starring in THE ADDAMS FAMILY, he will appear at the Menier

16 - Friday 18th August 2017 – Cardiff & South Wales Advertiser
SCORPIO (October 24th to November 22nd) Success is what you have been striving after for some considerable time and it is about to come to fruition. Don’t step back from your achievement at this stage in the game. Take all that is coming with a clear conscience. Your popularity is spreading too at the moment. This is something that comes with success and you should guard against fair-weather friends. They are apt to be rather brilliant and tend to eclipse your old friends.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23rd to December 21st) All things considered, this should be an unremarkable fortnight. You must heed a word of warning regarding a close relationship. You should definitely try to visit an old relative. Don’t take to wearing outrageous outfits, at this moment in time it would hardly be appropriate. If a gift is offered, take it gracefully. If a reprimand is handed out, take that too with a good grace. You can’t undo the damage, just learn for next time.
CAPRICORN (December 22nd to January 20th) Go forward in your enterprises with as much confidence and aplomb as you can muster. Take every challenge as it comes and treat each one on its own merits. You are going to be in demand and time spent preparing yourself for this will be time well spent. Go all out for some new experiences in your social life. You tend to the more formal and stylised sort of entertainment, and frankly it is about time you let your hair down and got a bit more up to date.
AQUARIUS (January 21st to February 19th) There will be a lot falling on your shoulders at the moment. You are quite equal to it all just so long as you remember to keep every detail of your life well and truly organised. Put a few of your recent worries behind you for the time being. Most of these will sort themselves out without your help. What you must concentrate on is your present circumstances. Take advice and help where it is offered and be prepared to change direction at a moment’s notice.
PISCES (February 20th to March 20th) Take a deep breath, count to ten, and if you’re still mad, let rip. It will do you good to get a few things off your chest and this week the occasion will arise when it will be most appropriate to do so. A few surprises are coming your way in connection with an organisation you are associated with. Don’t show your surprise too much or you will spoil your reputation for unflappable readiness. It is important that you maintain this reputation, so just be careful.
