Russell Grant's horoscopes: As Leo advised to win support of influential people

Today's daily horoscopes for each star sign can be found below. These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant who has been reading star signs for more than 50 years.

Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20)

Someone you meet at a workshop or seminar will intrigue you. Once you get talking you will sense they are going to play an important part in your life. Misunderstandings in the home are cleared and there will be an upswing in your emotional life. An older relative will show kindness.

Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21)

Plans will be changed due to you having to escort a young child or elderly relative to a medical appointment. Even if you arrive on time, the wait will be much longer than you expect which means you are going to have to work overtime in order to meet a deadline.

Gemini (May 22 - June 21)

One way or another you will find the time you need to do some serious thinking. Even if it happens to be at midnight or the early hours of the morning when others aren’t so likely to disturb you as much as they have been doing lately. Things cannot go on the way they have been doing.

Cancer (June 22 - July 23)

You’re hoping that a loved one will support your ideas for a home improvement project. They may be worried about the cost. If you agree to cut out a few trimmings and promise to do most of the work yourself, they might give you the backing you are hoping for.

Leo (July 24 - Aug 23)

One way to make positive use of your assertiveness and drive is to win the support of some influential people. If all goes according to plan you will enjoy much success through making a good impression on someone who is in a position to help you further your aims.

Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23)

Someone is hiding things that are going on in their life that is causing them a great deal of anxiety. They are nowhere near as strong as they might look. Don’t lean too hard on a friend or relative who owes you a favour. They may not be able to bear the weight this time.

Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23)

You will make yourself ill if you keep agreeing to do everything everyone is asking of you. It isn’t practical or wise to put yourself out to indulge others. Someone needs to know that you only have one pair of hands and for the next few days at least, those same hands are full.

Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22)

Opportunities abound for you to experiment with new ideas and try out things in a hands-on fashion. It’s a great time for getting ahead and to do so, you are more likely to take risks to bring more excitement into your life. You trust your intuition because it rarely lets you down.

Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21)

It will be your great sense of timing that puts you in the right place at the right time. If and when the problems arise, these will be easily resolved. As always, you will be taking your responsibilities seriously but at the same time you will want to enjoy life, too. This balance is important.

Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)

Embrace new technology that might help make your job a little easier in future. You will not want to rely on this completely, but adopting an open-minded view will help you accept new methods designed to improve performance. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, as people will like to lighten the load.

Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19)

Pause before accusing someone of being devious over a work or complex financial matter. You might be certain of their guilt, but can you really prove it? Have facts and figures ready before voicing your suspicions or you could end up losing credibility as well as cash.

Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20)

A lot is likely to happen very quickly. You will be having the time of your life while involved in a group or fundraising project. Inspiration comes flooding into your mind whenever anyone asks for new and original ideas. Teamwork allows you to forge happier, healthier relationships.
