Yearly horoscope forecast for 2023: A chapter for new beginnings

The new year has already started, and it's pretty evident that most of you have already started it with unreasonable or completely predictable "New Year's resolutions" to bide by for another year. Instead of attempting these "resolutions", and then failing miserably by the end of January, why not find out what's in store for you this year, and simply work to achieve these goals instead?

Aries

March 21 - April 20

Your mantra for this year should be thinking outside the box and taking risks if you want to see rewards. This entails everything in your life; love, lifestyle, and career. You will have to push yourself outside of your comfort zone to get what you want.

The start of the year will see you becoming financially able and this will enable you to improve your financial situation further still. However, don't speak carelessly or do anything that can jeopardise these opportunities, or alienate your loved ones. If you are a student aspiring to go abroad for education, this could very well be the year it happens.

Be ready for challenges that will test your spirit in the third quarter of this year.

The new year will also serve as a good luck for your romantic ventures, both ongoing or new. In case you wish to tie the knot this year, this would be favourable year to do so. The start of the year may kick off a bit rocky, and problems may arise with your partner, but this phase will pass soon after.

Unfortunately, this year may be a rollercoaster ride in terms of your work and career. The second half of the year in particular may bring hindrances to your business. Your lack of coordination with co-workers will be a factor in these situations so keep communication to a maximum. Take risks if you want things to improve. If you keep this up, the later parts of the year will see all the work being paid off.

Taurus

April 21 - May 20

2023 has plenty of new opportunities to grow into the person you so wish to be. However, like all things in life, it won't come for free. You will have to give up your old ways of dealing with things, because all they will do is make you suffer in this new chapter of your life.

Expect dealing with the wrong people, making the wrong connections, and opportunities to fall away. While all this may be disheartening, know that these problems will only last for a short while, and soon enough, things will fall into the way it's supposed to be. Eventually, you will make good friends and wonderful connections, as well as an established and prosperous career, and maybe even start a new romantic journey if you open your heart to the right person. You will also have the opportunity to travel or even live abroad this year.

This year will be an excellent opportunity for you to showcase your abilities at work. Some big changes may come at you in terms of your career at the beginning of the year, maybe even a new job. For the rest of the year, continue doing your best work, and by the fourth quarter, you will make significant financial gains.

Be extra careful regarding your health this year, this includes both physical health as well as your mental health.

Gemini

May 21 - June 21

Your start to this new year will be to experiment and figure out what works and what doesn't so that when you truly wish to finalise things by the end of the year, you know you will be making the right decision. This means that you will spend most of the year forging new paths and making new relationships. If you have people in your lives who are either holding you back, or does not support your goals, now would be the right time to slowly distance yourself from them.

As for your romantic relationships, expect plenty of ups and downs this year. Problems may occur in the first or second quarter. However, by the third quarter, it will be smooth sailing all the way, and if things go really well, you could even tie the knot.

Don't make too many plans to travel this year, as careless spending will land you in unnecessary problems. If you have to travel, do so for special occasions that will allow both you and your partner to bond better.

Expect good things to happen at the work front after January. However, your workload may increase exponentially. There might be some uncertainty in the third quarter, but that should also pass with some hard work. This is also a good year if you wish to change things up and switch careers.

Cancer

June 22 - July 22

For you, 2023 is all about letting go of your painful past and all the negativity that hangs over you. These negative emotions could manifest as not being able to think straight, keep your energy levels up, or lack of confidence, and its important that you deal with these in a healthy manner by retreating and taking time off. You will also need to stop over-extending yourself.

Take the opportunities for travel that will present itself throughout the year and find peace with yourself and your inner voice. Finding places that are close to nature will help even more. Even if you're with others, find some time to be on your own.

Thankfully, your financial situation won't be too bad as you will continue to earn a good amount. You could use this opportunity to invest in ventures that you think will have good financial rewards.

However, your romantic relationships may face some hardship this year. Some work-related stress could bring even more tension, making the situation worse. As long as you have the right partner though, you will both come out of this in one piece. Communication with your partner and some time will help ease over most of your problems and by the third quarter, everything should be fine again. If you think things are going well, maybe even consider marriage, but its probably best to leave that for next year.

Expect your career to blossom and soar to new heights this year.

Leo

July 23 -August 22

This might just be the year you were hoping for. Expect to be extra lucky in the romance and career departments. However, this should also be the year that you let go of your self-criticism, because this judgemental nature may be what's actually stopping you from getting your happily ever after. If you cannot accept yourself, you will struggle to accept another. Focus on healing yourself, so you can have healthier relationships with others. This means accepting, and letting go of your past.

The second quarter of this year will be a crucial time for you, regarding your relationships, career and financial situation. If possible, try to postpone any decisions that can have significant outcomes. There is a potential risk of incurring unforeseen financial loss, emotional stress, or physical harm, so stay alert. Also, avoid getting involved in anything serious in the third quarter or something might go wrong. Near the end of the year is when you will be faced with situations that will help shape the coming years for you.

Expect great success in romantic relationships this year. You might also may have the opportunity to travel abroad, and learn new things.

This year may allow you to reach new heights in your career, especially the first few months. Your hard work from previous years will pay off, and you can continue on that effort to see great results. By the third quarter, you can expect outstanding job advancements.
