Horoscopes: Question time

Horoscopes:
Question time
By Imhotep
You are in control, my dear Crabs, as people born under the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer (22 Jun-22 Jul) are sometimes called. But you are not fully comfortable with the position just yet. If in doubt, call a team of experts and tell them the situation. You'll effortlessly attract just the people you need in your life.
Stop trying to be everything to people who are interested in you. Think about what would make you happy. Now, go ahead, and follow it through.
Feel it? It pinches when someone pins all their hopes and dreams on you. Gently remind them that they need to find solutions to their own problems. Tell them you need some breathing room. Be firm.
Spend your time, my dear Crabs, with those you consider just as beautiful on the inside as on the outside. Cancel all unimportant appointments. Spend your time with those dearest to you. Your primary partner or best friend in the whole wide world will take a starring role in your life -- much to your delight and theirs as well.
Typical Cancerians want to be up close and personally involved with everyone. That goes double for your loved ones, my dear Crabs.
Being fickle could land you in a pickle and not the nice crunchy kind either, my dear Lions, as people born under the Fixed Fire sign of Leo (23 Jul-22 Aug) are sometimes called. Romance can be a lot like buying shoes. Sometimes no matter how great a certain style looks, it is just not a great fit on you. If a crucial factor is missing from the equation, you cannot force it. Let it go. And, Imhotep promises you, it will go.
Your emotions, my dear Lions, are running on high at the moment -- and you're in for an explosive festive season -- but that is more than a month away. In the meantime, it will be so easy for you to express yourselves and even easier to find sympathetic listeners and kindred spirits. Anything less than a profound exchange will leave you cold in the weeks ahead, my dear Lions. So if someone approaches you hoping to have some light conversation on Christmas, New Year's Eve, or Eid Al-Adha better warn them in no uncertain terms: No fluff. Deep stuff only, please.
In the weeks ahead, however, matters of the heart might leave your head somewhat flummoxed. Get your heart and your head to work together, especially when it comes to judging character. Find some balance when you evaluate personal relationships, and especially so if you are a Leo with a Libra Ascendant.
You have got the magic touch when it comes to a strident situation, my dear Virgoans, as people born under the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo (23 Aug-22 Sep) are sometimes called. However, the window you have to work with is very small. Stay alert and be attuned to the reality of the situation so your actions can have a positive effect. And, remember, it truly is a world of wonders.
You realise something key to unlocking the mysteries of life: the more you see the less you know. New questions are revealed even as you receive key pieces of information. Decipher the code of ethics and framework you must labour within. Check out the inner meanings. Get ready to hear some astounding revelations in the days ahead. By the end of November and the beginning of December you shall be satisfied with the answers to all of your most perplexing questions.
Right now, your dreams are tethered to reality by a very short rope. Don't worry, however. This obstacle is temporary. Keep your hopes alive by learning to work within the limits that are in front of you.
Occasionally Virgoans can be shy, and especially so, when other people want to celebrate the Virgoan achievements and their innate lovability. Why not practise being appreciative and gracious when you are in the spotlight? It will get easier, the Stars predict.
Look out next week for Imhotep's reading of Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius
