Weekly Russell Grant horoscope for Saturday November 20

Aries

You aren't sure whether or not to take a risk even though this is one that excites you. You have a 50:50 chance of this turning out as you are hoping. Both your family life and working relationships are equally blessed when there is so much going on that will bring you happiness and pleasure. Be sure to showcase your skills during a group event. You might enjoy sharing your knowledge with others in a teaching situation.

Taurus

You feel a workmate who is trying to speak out for themselves is being completely misunderstood. Have a quiet word with them to make sure you are reading them correctly before speaking out on their behalf. You will do well in a competitive enterprise but in order to keep this up, you need to keep your wits about you. It may be necessary to keep some of your plans and intentions quiet.

Gemini

It won't matter if other people aren't interested in helping you as the week begins.

You will prefer to work on your own. A close friend or partner is not in tune with your needs and feelings and you won't like the way they belittle your hopes and dreams. If you believe you can achieve, don't let anyone hold you back. Avoid people whose company makes you nervous and seek out friends who love and support you.

Cancer

You might be disappointed to learn someone close isn't keen on joint plans you are making.

You will wish they had mentioned this earlier but now you know how they feel it is only fair that their needs are respected. Work with them on finding a compromise. Think twice before agreeing to take on more responsibilities. Life is stressful and you need to start thinking about your health. Balance relaxation and pleasure with your more important concerns.

Leo

You could do with some advice but the moment you ask for this, everyone will have an opinion. As well-intentioned as some people might be, their views may not relate to your particular circumstances. It would be better to look to one mentor. New possibilities for the future will be put to you and some will have an instant appeal. Be prepared to juggle accounts in order to afford a big purchase.

Virgo

It's worth keeping some of your plans to yourself. The moment some people discover your intentions they will want to get involved. If you intend to travel, they will invite themselves along. You can always let them know what you are doing or what you have done, later. You're very close to achieving a goal you have been striving towards. Once you have succeeded in this aim you won't feel guilty about throwing yourself into social pleasures.

Libra

You're disappointed with a friend's attitude when you share your ideas. Failing to get the support you were hoping for will not deter you from your aims. You will get on with it anyway and then confront them later about it because when all is said and done, they could have been more understanding. A senior colleague will offer you some useful advice. It is worth considering the words of those who are successful in their field.

Scorpio

Decisions you make at this time will be life-changing ones. Change is happening all around you and your future looks like it could be quite incredible. You will feel as if you are on a roller coaster ride but you also know that this is taking you to a place that will make you very happy.

This is also why your partner's annoyance over news received early in the week will turn into delight later. Everything will seem to turn out well for you both.

Sagittarius

You won't be keen on a purchase your partner or someone in the family wants to make.

There are much better things you feel you can spend your money on. It might be time to arrange to have separate accounts. As well as this allowing you both to spend money as you see fit, a recent cash flow problem will recede. Plan to get in some quiet relaxation in the evenings. You might also be thinking about going on a solitary holiday.

Capricorn

Even when you are asked for your views, think carefully about what you say. There are times when it is sensible to keep your thoughts quiet. This is one of them. Some people might take your words in the wrong way. Your boss or a senior colleague might put some extra work your way. Although you already have enough to do, their support is paving the way for a high-profile job. They do have your best interests at heart.

Aquarius

You will be careful about what you reveal to other people in the workplace. There are some plans and ideas you will prefer to keep to yourself. Where you can afford to be more open and outspoken is when you are at home with your loved ones. The more honest you are about your thoughts and feelings, the more likely it is that you will make long-term plans and arrangements that suit you all.

Pisces

A work assignment you had been excited about taking on will turn out to be more challenging and time-consuming than you were expecting. The good news is the end is in sight. In a group discussion, people are keen to hear your views. It would be worth taking their opinions into consideration too. Having new activities to look forward to will keep you enthusiastic and inspired. Fairly simple things will keep you occupied and content on the weekend.
