After the U.S. seized Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, members of powerful armed groups started arriving in Colombia from neighbouring Venezuela. Tensions in Colombia have intensified following President Donald Trump’s forceful remarks in the wake of the U.S. military operation that captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro. The comments have revived long‑standing fears about regional instability and raised questions about the future of U.S.–Colombia relations. Rising Tensions After the Venezuela Strike In the aftermath of the Venezuela attack, Trump issued sharp warnings toward Colombia, accusing President Gustavo Petro of enabling drug production and trafficking.

Your daily horoscope: June 15, 2024

 


HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Stop making excuses for not reaching the targets you set yourself and reconfirm your commitment to excellence for the coming year. What you did or did not do yesterday is no longer of any relevance – it’s what you do today and tomorrow that matters.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

Life has been moving at such a rapid pace of late that you could probably do with a rest, so treat yourself to one this weekend. The cosmic picture is about to change in a very big way so make sure you are in tip-top condition.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Don’t waste your time worrying or arguing about things you cannot change. That applies as much to your personal life as it does to your work – there is just no point getting worked up about issues you can do nothing about. Accept them and move on.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

The sun moves out of your sign on the 20th, so you still have plenty of time to do something spectacular. If you are working on a creative project of some kind give it your all and make sure it’s you, and not your rivals, who get the applause.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Don’t worry too much if it feels as if you are on the downward side of the curve because in a matter of days your life will be on the up again. Huge and beneficial changes are heading your way, so conserve your energy over the next 48 hours.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

The world has looked a much brighter place in recent weeks and there is no reason why that should not continue, but you need to be prepared for the more challenging phase that is about to arrive. Don’t worry, you will enjoy every moment.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

If you want to move up professionally you must make your move soon, because when the sun leaves the career area of your chart next week it won’t be so easy to get yourself noticed. Focus on your No. 1 aim to the exclusion of everything else.

    LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

    Make an effort to broaden your horizons this weekend, if possible by travelling to some place you have never been to before. The more you stretch yourself physically and mentally now the more fun you will have over the next three or four weeks.

    SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

    Your feelings for a certain individual will intensify this weekend and there is a danger you could go over the top emotionally and say and do things you look back on with embarrassment later on. But so what? At least they will know for sure how you feel.

    SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

    It may be true that opposites attract but sometimes they can repel as well and what occurs over the next 48 hours will remind you that there are some people you will never get along with. Is that such a tragedy? No, it’s just a fact of life.

    CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

    The message of the stars now is that you need to tighten up your working routine so you get the best from yourself before the cosmic picture begins to change at the start of next week. If you are organized you are more likely to be successful as well.

    AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

    One of the most exciting times of the year is coming to an end. How can you see it off with a bang? One way would be to bring a creative endeavour to a successful conclusion. Another would be to declare your undying love for someone very special.

    PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

    What can you do to make your own life more exciting? And what can you do to bring some excitement into the lives of the people you love? If you can find a way to answer both those questions the next few weeks will be truly amazing.
