ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)  
Your instinct may be to take an each-way bet, but if you are backed into a corner, let conscience be your guide.  There is a need for leadership, but you may prefer to pass on the role. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21) 
What you lack patience you will more than make up for with daring and skill.  Yours may be one of the productive signs in the zodiac today, but indecisive people may consider you rather ruthless. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21) 
If you feel restless or disinterested, make small rather than wholesale changes.  The worst thing you could do this month is burn your bridges as later in the year you may need to revisit a particular situation. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23) 
There could be friction between you and a friend or colleague, but arguments will ignite and burn out just as quickly.  Put emotion aside and think carefully about the role you have played in the relationship. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
You could be inclined to take issues personally, but it seems certain that others will value your opinions and advice.  The best possible tactic is to try and remain emotionally detached from discussions or other people's problems. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23) 
A glamorous, intelligent or influential person could cross your path and have an immediate impact on you.  You will be uncharacteristically impressed by superficiality and may be more conscious than usual of your own image or appearance. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23) 
Your flair for probing others' secrets and picking up on the prevailing mood give you a significant edge over most of your competitors today.  You will know instinctively what others want, need and are up to. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22) 
Moon poised to enter your sign makes you more dependent on others, but it also means closer ties in relationships.  One of your secret hopes, dreams or goals could come to fruition much sooner than expected. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22) 
You may have to forfeit free time to help the less privileged, but self-sacrifice is likely to come naturally.  Just a word of warning though, emotions may be close to the surface and negative energy easily absorbed. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20) 
The pace will gradually pick up, leaving you less time for attention to detail.  Rather than cutting corners or settling for second-best, focus attention on creative or physical activities that require less concentration and more instinct. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19) 
Your outlook is likely to be philosophical, allowing you to see both sides of a situation.  You may be called upon to speak on behalf of others or express an opinion and will give an impressive performance. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20) 
On the surface an issue may appear cut and dried.  However, a more complex picture will emerge once you peel away the layers and unearth new or relevant information.  Think twice before making a pledge or choice. 

YOUR DAY 
Some may see themselves as the centre of the universe, while others duck for cover when advice or assistance is needed.  The stars are both sparkling and subjective, suggesting the mood and behaviour of people will ebb and flow.  This is an ideal time for rebuilding and making amends. 

YOUR BIRTHDAY 
You can set the bar higher during this ambitious and tenacious period.  Whatever you achieve will come through self-belief, hard work and a strong sense of destiny.  And rather than getting in over your head, you will also be aware of just how far to go.
