Horoscopes today - Russell Grant's star sign forecast for Friday, June 9

Aries

A desire to make improvements in your life relates to a rising concern over career or environmental issues. While you can be congratulated for doing your bit, you feel you could do more. If you are working at home, a lot can be achieved as you feel less stressed in comfortable surroundings.

Taurus

Finding a suitable opportunity to get on with jobs on your own, as you would have wished, won’t be easy. Both your home and workplace are lively with activity. An online discussion will be interesting when everyone involved will have something to teach the others.

Gemini

Your attention is drawn to a joint project when it is apparent you both have different ideas on how this should be developed. You might feel your path towards a long-term aim has veered off course and you need time to work out the best way to get things back on track again.

Cancer

Your quiet efforts behind the scenes are starting to prove to people who like to be the centre of attraction that grabbing all the attention all of the time while appearing to make occasional efforts to work is not the way to get recognition for a job well done.

Leo

With all the invitations coming your way you should be in for an interesting and varied day. Offers you have to choose from leave you with several possible ways to spend your time. This is a decision that will not pose much of a problem when the suggestions of a close friend sound far too good to miss.

Virgo

You aren’t likely to get it right every time when you try something new. Give yourself permission to make mistakes. Keep trying until you are happy with the results achieved. It will take a lot of practice but perfection will come.

Libra

Ignore any nasty rumours doing the rounds. By refusing to listen to and join in with the gossip, you will be encouraging more caring relationships. Someone is trying to tarnish a workmate or neighbour’s reputation but you will refuse to drag them down.

Scorpio

Longer working hours leave you exhausted but you feel you have no choice. Your employer will admit to being short staffed and although this isn’t your problem, your conscience will push you to reduce social commitments to help get them through this busy period.

Sagittarius

Family harmony has been lacking lately and this isn’t doing any of you any good. Now is a good time to swallow your pride and make a determined effort to repair misunderstandings. Stay calm to maintain your equilibrium.

Capricorn

You haven’t always found it easy to show your feelings. You now feel more able to discuss touchy topics with those you care about without you feeling too self-conscious. This new openness will surprise someone while also bringing them an immense sense of relief.

Aquarius

You can achieve anything you put your mind to. It’s simply a matter of believing in yourself. Remind yourself of your past successes and this will bolster your confidence. Slowly but surely you will overcome those doubts that have been holding you back.

Pisces

Hard work earns you a lot of respect.in addition to this, some careful planning and dedicated application will enable you to overcome stumbling blocks in a far more efficient way than many of your adversaries. This may raise a few eyebrows when your approach was not what other people were expecting.
