Find out if you need to seek advice, embrace a new friendship or step into the spotlight in a bid to dazzle.

Here are astrologer Patrick Arundell’s forecasts for the week starting Monday, June 30.

ARIES March 21 – April 20: The Quarter Moon in Libra shines a light on partnerships, so it’s the perfect time to seek advice before jumping into that home project. A second opinion could save you time, money or your nerves. Meanwhile, Venus twirls into chatty Gemini, turning up the charm and making this a week full of flirty vibes, fun invites and sparkling conversation. You’ll be very persuasive too.

TAURUS April 21– May 21: This week’s Quarter Moon urges you to move from planning to doing, but don’t go it alone. Rally your friends and share your ideas, as a little teamwork turns dreams into reality. With Venus your ruler gliding into Gemini, it’s the perfect time to uncover smart deals and make purchases that truly suit your lifestyle. But with Neptune rewinding, don’t be in a hurry.

GEMINI May 22 – June 21: You’re invited to invest in a creative project that lights you up. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just fun. Venus waltzes into your sign too, meaning people are drawn to your wit, so reach out, connect and be curious, as it can lead you somewhere interesting. With Neptune rewinding, keep your “spidey senses” switched on. If something feels off, trust that nudge and look deeper.

CANCER June 22 – July 23: Are you ready to tweak your home to reflect the new, evolving you? Your space should grow as you do, so make it your sanctuary, not a museum. With Venus gliding into Gemini you may feel like keeping things a little more private, and you’ll also enjoy your own company more. Neptune’s rewind urges you to re-examine goals. Are they still right for you, or just glittering distractions?

LEO July 24 – 23 August 23: The Quarter Moon highlights the power of connection, so trust your gut and your social skills when someone intriguing crosses your path. If it feels special, it just might be. With Venus breezing into Gemini, your social calendar could fill fast, and you’ll be in demand. It’s a good time to make new friends, network or just shine in your natural habitat, which is the spotlight.

VIRGO August 24 – September 23: Making steady progress on a team project? If so, stick with it and the payoff could be more than just satisfying. With Venus striding into Gemini your charm gets a professional polish, making this a stellar time to impress the right people in your career or business circle. But as Neptune rewinds, be extra cautious with anything that seems too good to be true. Trust facts over fantasy.

LIBRA September 24 – October 23: The Quarter Moon in your sign gives you the green light to move forward with a goal you’ve been testing. In addition, as Venus sashays into Gemini, travel, adventure and new experiences are calling, and your appetite for life may be insatiable. But with Neptune rewinding, not everyone is quite what they seem. Be kind and diplomatic, just don’t take them at face value.

SCORPIO October 24 – November 22: You’re being encouraged to step back, retreat and recharge physically, emotionally and spiritually. Don’t underestimate the power of stillness, as healing happens when you let life slow down. And yet as Venus enters Gemini, your desires are dialled up too, and when you want something, you’ll pursue it with magnetic focus. Just make sure it’s truly worth the chase.

SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 21: New friends may hold the keys to doors you’ve been eager to open. Keep an open mind, as the right conversation could lead to meaningful opportunities. With Venus moving into Gemini your relationships get a lively boost. Love feels lighter, more fun and flirtier too. But with Neptune rewinding be cautious of diving headfirst into a dazzling romance. Take your time.

CAPRICORN December 22 – January 20: The Libra Quarter Moon gives you the green light to move forward with a promising idea. Friends will cheer you on and their support could be key to your success. Venus zips into Gemini, smoothing out workplace relationships and helping make your daily routine easier. Team up with friends who share your health goals as they’ll help you to stay accountable.

AQUARIUS January 21 – February 19: Ready to step back and refuel, whether through travel, study or a change of scene? Time out now means you’ll return to work sharper, calmer and ready to dazzle everyone with your brilliance. Venus dances into fellow air sign Gemini, inviting you to indulge in social outings, cultural adventures and fascinating conversations, which are all the things you love that leave you feeling good.

PISCES February 20 – March 20: The Quarter Moon may bring questions about a creative project or budding romance, such as is it truly worth your precious time and emotional energy? Only you can decide, but listen to your intuition and weigh up the long-term factors. Your home also becomes a place of cosy gatherings. But as Neptune rewinds, finances could benefit from a deep no-nonsense dive.
