Horoscopes today - Russell Grant's star sign forecast for Saturday, July 8

Aries

You’re in two minds about accepting a travel invitation from a spendthrift friend. If you’re keen to join them let them know from the start that you will be travelling on a budget. You can still have fun without spending a lot of money.

Taurus

If you and a new partner are going to understand each other you should check you both share the same goals and objectives. There is no point in getting involved in a relationship only to find you have little in common. Some time on your own later in the day will help you get your confused thoughts in order.

Gemini

Talk to a creative friend if you are looking for new interests to occupy your time. You might not like all their ideas but there are some that could catch your interest. A practical colleague will try to slow you down by insisting that everything should be done their way.

Cancer

You might wish you could stay in bed all day when the way things are going, nothing seems to be going right for you. At least some interesting events in the evening will keep you active and occupied and you will quickly forget any earlier frustrations.

Leo

If you’re arranging a wedding or special celebration, when it comes to the guest list, seating and flowers, it doesn’t matter what other people might suggest, yours should be the final decision. Your partner or a housemate will get some good news about a job they have applied for.

Virgo

Chatting to an old friend, in-person or online will be surprisingly entertaining. This could change your views about someone or something that has been at the front of your mind. You won’t be feeling very energetic later and for once you will be content to do nothing more than sit and chat.

Libra

You are starting to question your commitments to a charity or voluntary project. Responsibilities are increasing and there seems to be little in the way of gratitude coming your way. It will feel as if a volunteer effort is more like a full time unpaid job.

Scorpio

You wish other people would keep their views to themselves, at times. You really aren’t interested in everything they have to say. Just as it would be easier for you if someone kept their mind on their own business and stayed out of yours.

Sagittarius

Take this chance to give more thought to a legal or financial transaction that’s about to be agreed on. If you have been having second thoughts you will only feel annoyed with yourself later if you don’t consider the pros and cons while you have the time.

Capricorn

You are tempted to enter a new form of partnership. Whether this is a business or social arrangement it could open up opportunities to travel. With you having been restless for change recently you should consider all invitations and offers that are being put to you now.

Aquarius

You might feel guilty about growing bored with some commitments. A group project is starting to lose some of its appeal. This is because you have been involved in this for some time and you can’t ignore a desire to start looking for something else to do.

Pisces

Even if you hit a few snags, these can be overcome with a little patience and a lot of common sense. You might doubt your ability to carry out a task you are unfamiliar with but there will be nothing lost by giving this a go. You can always ask for help when you need it.
