Many signs will see some positive changes this week as the Gemini period starts on Monday. The MEN's resident medium also says that those who are looking to change their long term situation should be prepared to put in some extra thought and effort at the beginning of this week.

For Geminis this period is an important one with birthdays-a-plenty keeping them active for the upcoming month. Stockport based tarot reader Stuart Cassels says the next four weeks will require a lot of mental and physical exercise to 'organise areas of your life that have been neglected for some time.'

Pisceans are in for some good news after a difficult period with Thursday being earmarked as the day celebrations will begin. Elsewhere, the patience of Cancers will be tested as things start to fall apart around them, however, Stuart stresses a optimistic mindset in the midst of turmoil.

Stuart’s tarot reading of each star sign for the week commencing from May 20 - 26 can be read below.

Aries: 21st March - 19th April: "The start of the week will bring indecision to many aspects of your life, which may leave you feeling out of your comfort zone. Relax and enjoy this rare opportunity to let go of decision making responsibilities, and let fate take control, especially when it comes to the minor choices in life.

"Nimble fingers will be a great help later on in the week - so if you’re not very dexterous, be prepared to ask for assistance from someone with smaller hands."

Taurus: 20th April - 20th May: "Taureans will be kept busy looking to find the right balance in their lives this week. You might have an urge to devote some time to a good cause, especially one that has helped you in the past.

"Venus entering your sign on Thursday, along with the Flower Moon will bring a renewed sense of energy and luck, and the forthcoming weeks will see new friendships develop in the most unlikely of scenarios. Be mindful that you only have so much time and energy to share."

Gemini: 21st May - 20th June: "As the Sun enters Gemini on Monday you will certainly be kept active in the coming month. Expect the opportunity to combine lots of mental and physical exercise, and to organise areas of your life that have been neglected for some time. It is a perfect time to reconnect with friends, and explore new interests.

"Thursday’s Full Moon will bring a desire to be honest with those around you, and concentrate on the simpler pleasures in life."

Cancer : 21st June - 22nd July: "Luck and good fortune doesn’t appear to be on your side at the start of the week, especially when it comes to matters concerning your home. A leak, power cut or an appliance breaking may cause concern, but everything happens for a reason. Look for the positives within the challenges, and use this as an opportunity to grow, and be grateful for what you have.

"Thursday’s full moon will bring a positive emotional transformation in the family, and by the weekend you will begin to realise that those around you are far more important than material belongings."

Leo: 23rd July - 22nd August: "This week will see Leos demonstrating two very different sides to their personality, and it is important that you get the balance right. Playing the role of parent or boss this week will require you to be strict at times, to ensure that everything runs smoothly. But don’t let the power go to your head.

"Take time to connect with those around you and show your empathetic side when needed. You have a knack of bringing out the best in people, and this week could see you demonstrating this to the best of your abilities. After Thursday’s full moon, you should be able to relax a little and show your playful side."

Virgo: 23rd August - 22nd September: "Virgos will yearn for an adventure this week. Whether it’s looking at travelling to somewhere exciting and unusual, or being engrossed in deep research, it’s all about wanting to explore and reconnect with your past.

"As the weekend draws closer you may feel a certain level of sadness as the end of an important period of your life comes to pass. Thursday’s Full Moon will bring new opportunities to keep you busy, so be sure to be alert to the chance of new starts.

Libra: 23rd September - 22nd October: "Those around you seem to be obstructing your progress, and you won’t be pleased to hear the word “No” this week. Look for ways to circumvent the negativity, and take control of the situation.

"There is always more than one path to your destination, and when faced with a brick wall, you should consider all your other options. Going over someone’s head, and asking to speak to their boss may not be a pleasant way to get what you want, but this week it may be the best course of action."

Scorpio: 23rd October - 21st November: "Monday will see Scorpios searching for answers, just be aware that once any secrets have been uncovered, they will be very difficult to forget again. New knowledge will prove to be both a blessing and a curse, and you will have to exercise control throughout the remainder of the week.

"Be selective who you share information with, and how you communicate with those closest to you. It’s a week to choose your words and reactions carefully. If in doubt, say nothing and walk away."

Sagittarius: 22nd November - 21st December: "Thursday’s Full Moon in your sign will bring you positive news about an issue you are passionate about. It is a great time to be proud of everything you have accomplished - especially projects where you started with nothing.

"Sagittarians who work in the arts and creative sector will see wonderful changes over the next four weeks. Now would be the perfect time to share some knowledge and give someone an opportunity you didn’t have in the past."

Capricorn: 22nd December - 19th January: "Einstein supposedly said 'if you can’t explain it to a six-year-old, you don’t understand it yourself' - and this certainly should resonate with Capricorns this week. Look at sharing knowledge in the most basic of terms this week.

"The simplest of approaches will serve to inspire your audience as well as demonstrate your ability to educate in a wide range of situations. Look to find ways to make memories this weekend. Many years from now someone will remind you about this week, with a smile and enthusiasm on their face."

Aquarius: 20th January -18th February: "Life is moving in the direction you dreamt of - work and home life are more stable than they have been for a while and everybody seems to be getting on. So when opportunity knocks this week you might want to consider what the consequences will be if you make big changes in your life.

"Is this the right time to overturn all your hard work? Take your time, and don’t be in a hurry to disrupt the stability around you. Leave the important decisions until Friday."

Pisces: 19th February - 20th March: "After a period of uncertainty and plenty of revisions, congratulations will be in order for Pisceans this week. Not only will you have good cause to celebrate, but so will someone very close to you.

"Before you crack open the bubbly, take some time to appreciate the journey you've made and consider if your methods and achievements warrant being recorded for the future. News received on Thursday may hint at the possibility of future excitement and additional freedom coming your way soon."
