Russell Grant warns partial solar eclipse on way as three signs told 'don't be selfish'
It's a partial solar eclipse this weekend and a new moon in Aries so Russell Grant has a warning for Leo, Sagittarius and Aries...
Russell Grant has some serious advice for astrology fans as we near the weekend’s partial solar eclipse.
The star man took to Instagram on Wednesday night with some top tips ahead of the new moon in Aries on Saturday - which will kick off a period of heightened “creativity” for a lot of signs over the next six months, especially the fire placements, as well as some other exciting opportunities.
But the astrology expert, who has been reading horoscopes for more than 50 years, also has some stark words of warning as we enter the new chapter..
Russell explained why there’s some powerful energy flying around as the solar eclipse takes shape, and it’s mainly to do with the fact that the sun is exalted in Aries -meaning it’s at its strongest form, encouraging confidence, leadership, and a strong sense of self. He also promised that despited his urgent reminders about certain things, it should prove to be a "sexy, loving and absolutely fabulous" time.
Russell explained that the “very best of the Sun’s traits and energies come out in the ideal form in Aries.
But he warned: “Fiery Aries ruled by Mars, and the Sun - this is ego stuff, this is about pushing yourself forward but not so far that you forget others.
“What you should be doing between now and October is investigating and discovering your own inner potential - the big word here is creativity, the more creative you are, doing the very best in you, the more adulation and applause you will get.”
Russell went on to explain that creativity can come in a number of ways.
And the main themes which Russell explores which will become huge areas of lift to many people over the next six months - procreation, creativity and love.
He went on: “So for instance you may decide to have baby, or a baby may just appear, even if you weren’t planning it.” He added the period is “great for sport, anything which uses muscle power and energy and stamina.”
And he added, reading creativity: “Creativity itself means bringing out the very best of you in any subject area where you feel that you’re being loved and adored and you love doing it.
“Because that’s the other big word here, love.”
Russell went on: “Things that you love to do and things that people love to see you do, we’re talking entertainment, all those things where you entertain people and you love doing it.
“Love in all of its descriptions, waves, manifestations, this is the energy that you want for the next six months."
Russell spilled on one more area of life that could be getting more exciting over the next few months, especially for the fire signs - Aries, Sagittarius and Leo - who could be set for a "very profitable period" especially related to matters of the heart.
He said: "“Now the other thing to be aware of - this is very sexy, it’s sexy stuff because its Mars, Aries, it’s Leo, for the fire signs it’s just going to be a very profitable and profound period for you - the intensity of this fire can bring out the very best in you, so long as you direct yourself towards those things that you love.
"Affairs of the heart can blossom and flourish and you can have heartfelt activities."

But, he had one more major warning: "The warning comes in the fact this can also mean ego and if you forget to share your creativity, the things you do, people can feel left out.
"So be very careful of being selfish, too self centred and too many self interests so that other people feel pushed out, bring people into your sexy, passionate seductive energy.
"You’ve got it and now all you've got to do is spread it out a bit."
Russell Grant's starts for Thursday
Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20)
You may not be happy with a current situation but now isn’t a good time to make drastic changes. Acting on impulse could lead to negative consequences. Try to accept things the way they are for just a short while longer. A new opportunity will present itself in a few days.
Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21)
Take your time when making up your mind. Friends and colleagues might see you as being quite conservative but this is far better than making impulsive changes that might later be regretted. By making thoughtful choices, you will be more certain that you’re on the right path.
Gemini (May 22 - Jun 20)
Group activities will go exceptionally well. If you are involved in a competitive situation the reason why you will be so successful is because of your positive attitude. Just be a bit careful not to be too pushy or you could draw some very powerful people your way.
Cancer (Jun 21 - Jul 22)
Sticking to traditional and proven approaches for problem-solving will get better results than being experimental. Just be very clear about your intentions and the direction you are taking. Accuracy, attention to detail and punctuality are all important in your dealings today.
Leo (Jul 23 - Aug 22)
Before you start on anything new, weigh up both the pros and cons. A decision could take you away from familiar places but you will want to ensure your home and family are well taken care of. Also, you need to carefully consider all the financial aspects related to this new venture.
Virgo (Aug 23 - Sep 22)
New opportunities will clash with old obligations. You’re dreaming about being more independent and hope one day you will have a chance to make your own choices without feeling tied down with responsibility and commitments to others. Balancing everything is not easy.
Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 23)
There are barriers to overcome and this will take a lot of effort from you. Others will look to you to help resolve contention. Once you have dealt with these important problems, don’t be surprised to feel a very strong desire for some vital rest, stability and predictability.
Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22)
You’re being far too critical, both towards other people and yourself. There’s a strong desire for perfection but the reality is: nothing is ever truly perfect. The more you express your thoughts, the more likely you are to have to say sorry later. Acknowledging this might make life a little easier.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21)
You want to get a move on and you feel increasingly frustrated with the slow progress of certain matters. Pushing things too fast could lead to mistakes and will allow others to take advantage of the situation. Take your time and results will come when the moment is right.
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)
A disagreement over money will arise in the early hours. This will not stop you from going ahead with a purchase for your home. Eventually a housemate will agree that you had the right idea. You are considering a new way of earning money. This idea deserves further thought.
Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19)
Deals and new arrangements will be misleading and you are likely to find some circumstances incredibly stressful. You have been through a similar situation before and you will handle it best if you stick with what you know and are comfortable with.
Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20)
Your friends and family appreciate you for your kindness and knack for offering emotional support. That’s why you often become the go-to person when someone needs advice or emotional support. You’re always ready to listen and provide a shoulder to lean on.
