ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Mental discipline at work and discernment in relationships are the keys to a successful day. Rather than falling victim to flattery or manipulation, use your sixth sense to interpret the true meanings behind words and actions.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You may be recognised for your efforts or good deeds, but perhaps not in the tangible way you prefer. Be content to settle for whatever accolades you receive today and avoid letting your ruthless streak show.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Try not to rake up the past or dwell on mistakes you once made. Instead, keep your mind busy and body active with mundane chores or physical exercise. It may also help to avoid spending time alone.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Changes could be occurring in a close relationship and you while may feel a sense of sadness, the transition is inevitable. Allow events to unfold naturally and rest assured destiny is working in your favour.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
While temptations may be placed in your path, you should avoid succumbing for all the wrong reasons. Live by a strict code of ethics and be loyal to those who have earned your allegiance in the past.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Settle problems amicably and avoid playing the guilt card. Your charitable instincts are strong at present and while you may see an easy way to win an argument, it could involve taking unfair advantage of others.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You may be more sensitive than usual to negative influences in your environment. Keep troublemakers at arm's length and try to avoid putting pressure on yourself to perform. Relationships will improve over the next few days.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
The planetary patterns help shake you out of complacency and you will feel a sense of excitement that has been missing for weeks. Plans may be put in place soon for a trip, new venture, or joint investment.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Rather than trying to second-guess situations, take life in your stride and accept outcomes that unfold. A loved one may be keeping a secret, or you will keep desires hidden from your partner so as to preserve the relationship.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
You could be inclined to fritter away time or squander opportunities. There is a fine line between being laidback and lazy today, and the onus is on you to take direct action or complete urgent tasks.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Instead of skimping or cutting corners, allow yourself a few luxuries and take life at a more leisurely pace. You should also try letting your emotional guard down in relationships rather than holding yourself aloof from others.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Be cautious when confiding secrets or getting involved in other people's problems. There may be tendency for some to gossip today and there will be those who have an ulterior motive. Keep personal standards high.

YOUR DAY
With the Moon leaving nebulous Pisces and heading into straightforward Aries, the mood will shift from guarded to approachable. Pessimistic outlooks on personal problems may suddenly turn optimistic and a sense of adventure could see people taking financial or emotional risks. Be generous with praise, flattery and feedback as even those who appear confident would love to be acknowledged for their efforts.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You may discover a fondness for unusual or adventurous activities and restless urges could see you checking out travel brochures for exotic destinations. Relationships and health receive a boost of energy, but unpredictable Uranus still makes it difficult to forecast outcomes. Try to take life in your stride this year.
