Weekly horoscope by Russell Grant: 27th October horoscopes for all 12 zodiac signs

ARIES (March 21st – April 20th)

You long to break away from your usual routine but until you complete a job you are working on, that’s not possible. A neighbour will come to you for advice. Although you have a dozen things to do, since you like and respect this person, you will find the time to give them the guidance they need. Contacts made socially, later in the week, will help increase your chances of bringing a difficult venture to a successful conclusion. Teamwork will get a job done in half the time.

TAURUS (April 21st – May 21st)

You would rather be out and about but a loved one’s ill health or outside responsibilities are stopping you from having fun. You’re tired of being at the beck and call of a relative who is starting to take your kind nature for granted. Fortunately, someone who understands your frustration will offer to take over some of your commitments. This is your chance to let your hair down. Look forward to a more relaxed ending to the week and there’s a strong chance of romance, if you are single.

GEMINI (May 22nd – June 21st)

Many of your closest friendships are being conducted online. It will be fun to develop a relationship after meeting on a dating site. Regular contact on Skype, Facebook and through texting doesn’t mean they are telling you everything so be cautious until you find out where this relationship is going. A workmate will try to meddle with your efforts. Insist on doing things in your own way. The time will come when you will know you were right to keep going despite opposition and disagreement.

CANCER (June 22nd – July 23rd)

Some people are deliberately ignoring jobs that need to be done just because they are boring. Even if you’re supposed to have some time off, you feel you have no choice but to get on with this work. What you could discover is there’s something going on behind the scenes that is very interesting. Someone you meet will be quite wonderful, with a glowing personality, warm heart and a huge amount of love to offer the person who captures it. You might hope to be the one.

LEO (July 24th – August 23rd)

Competition in a loving relationship keeps you on your toes. You could find yourself being upstaged be some flashy opposition. Someone who is new to your social scene is ostentatious, flamboyant and you are letting them eclipse you. Step back into the spotlight. A goal will be achieved through dedication and determination. Stay focused and positive. Keep your mind on what you are doing. Hard work will bring its just rewards and success will soon be yours.

VIRGO (August 24th – September 23rd)

Text messages and emails received don’t seem to make any sense to you. People question your words and you might feel you aren’t communicating very well. You will do all you can to rectify a misunderstanding but you will still be left with a feeling that someone isn’t being completely honest with you. If you haven’t already done so, you should act on a decision made at the start of the month. Hesitate for too long and the chance will be gone. Some risks are worth taking.

LIBRA (September 24th – October 23rd)

Someone in a position of power seems to find fault in all you do. You feel their criticism is anything but constructive. Don’t let this undermine your confidence and do your best to stay away from negative people. At times, it will feel as if everything is an uphill struggle. If you could do with some help and support, ask for it. Even if people who are normally there for you have things of their own to do, a new friend or neighbour will be happy to lend their assistance.

SCORPIO (October 24th – November 22nd)

An area of our life that is going nowhere needs to be ditched. You’re ready to let go of aspects of the past and move towards the future. Do this now while you have the energy and confidence to make some positive changes. You are starting to feel a new relationship isn’t right for you. What this person thinks is funny, you find sad and upsetting. You have a wonderful sense of humour but it isn’t shared in this relationship. If you feel you are incompatible, cut ties and walk away.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23rd – December 21st)

The demands of an intimate relationship are starting to annoy you. You feel restricted by a partner or close friend’s expectations of you. You should not have to account for your whereabouts every minute of the day. It is time to be bold and discuss your feelings. Keep looking to brushing up on your skills. Networking is another way forward. Although you never lack for friends, mixing with supportive people who share your goals and values will be empowering.

CAPRICORN (December 22nd – January 20th)

While you are focused on the big picture, others are easily distracted. You’re tired of conversations being disrupted while people check text messages or send them. If they aren’t interested or involved in what’s going on, you would prefer they found company elsewhere. Channel excess energy into a hobby or take up a sport. Working on a creative project will be personally satisfying. You’re making good progress in most areas but do at least one thing every day that makes your heart sing.

AQUARIUS (January 21st – February 19th)

Unspoken anxieties are starting to affect a close relationship. Now is not a good week to discuss these. Postpone major discussions until you and a partner can arrange to have some quiet time together. Decide on aims that are important to you and action taken this week will take you one step closer towards achieving them. An executive is looking for someone who can take the initiative in the professional realm. This is your chance to ask for a raise or promotion.

PISCES (February 20th – March 20th)

Your work is a source of profound pleasure and productivity. This paves the way for bigger and better assignments. Use this chance to take on a job you have always wanted to do. When you do what you love, the money will follow. Your partner will encourage you to pursue an artistic dream. Romance will be shaping up just the way you want it to. If you’re single, you might meet someone special at a concert, casino or play. Lady Luck is looking out to serve you.
