ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
A relationship or project
that once held promise may simply fizzle out.  Rather than trying
to salvage what little is left, you will probably cut your losses and
move on to something or someone new. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
Moon
and Mars blend with your sign, and while one encourages you to broaden
your horizons, the other adds spice to relationships.  You can
expect to be noticed, loved, or listened with much greater
intensity. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
You have
every reason to believe that an aspect of life is taking a turn for the
better.  It may have been a long time coming, but a worthy reward,
relationship, or new venture is on the horizon. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
Rather
than following the dictates of others, march to the beat of your own
drum.  Fussy and sensitive by nature, you must choose your battles
carefully and let criticism or guilty feelings wash over you. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
Someone
may acknowledge your efforts, but it will be faint praise compared with
the tributes you really deserve.  Because of your high standards
and people pleasing ways, you may be taken for granted by others. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
Happiness
tinged with a touch of nostalgia makes you ponder the past, but you
will have no regrets.  An important person in your life looks set
to play bigger role and the end result will be emotional
fulfilment. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Put
indecisiveness aside and keep a recent promise made to a friend,
colleague, or family member.  You will accumulate more karmic
points by acting responsibly and proving to others you mean exactly
what you say. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Despite
feeling like the meat in the sandwich, you will be an excellent
mediator and negotiator.  Whether the conflict is between friends,
relatives or colleagues, you have the ability to broker an appropriate
compromise. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
Venus
in your sign adds weight to your words, enhances your popularity, and
encourages you to look your best.  Momentum may build in the days
ahead and while others feel drained, you will be energised. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
Rather
than seeking an escape route or worrying about keeping the peace, face
your detractors and relatives.  You may have been fence sitting
lately and others are unsure of where you stand or your loyalties
lie. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
Keep
your composure, repeat a positive mantra, and make a concerted effort
to improve the status quo.  Laziness or a lack of self-worth may
be holding you back and youmust seize your opportunity to rectify a
situation. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
If
you are nervous about a deadline, responsibility, or upcoming event,
you must set a strict timetable and adhere to it.  Put the
finishing touches to each task before attempting the next one on your
list. 

YOUR DAY
Certain notions may seem fanciful, but
plenty of creative ideas are likely to be generated.  Venus moves
into smart and skilful Sagittarius, prompting people to be more
dramatic and less afraid to go out on a limb.  There is a sense of
adventure in the air and the risk-takers will inspire more timid types
to step outside their safety zone.  Travel, education, and
philosophy feature prominently. 

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You
narrowly escape Pluto's wrath, but will feel the stirrings of change in
the upcoming months.  Set yourself academic or business goals and
think smart when making financial or romantic decisions. You are
heading into a period of transformation and a smooth transition can
only be achieved through business-like behaviour.
