ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
You may have to rely on your wits to navigate difficult discussions or situations today.  Detail is also important and you must remain focussed if you want to prevent problems or misunderstandings.  Keep a cool head. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
A trying situation comes to a close as Moon in the fortunate part of your chart provides the breakthrough you have been waiting for.  Meantime celebrations may be low key, but they hold very special meaning. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
Your bubble may burst, leaving you temporarily deflated or sad.  The good news is your recovery period will be swift and as the year draws to a close you may snap up an invitation a special event. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
Social activity is favoured, although there may be times when you feel nostalgic or lonely.  The happiest moments will be spent sharing one-on-one experiences with people who hold a special place in your heart. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
Look for a suitable forum before airing your opinions or making demands.  You have plenty of charm and the gift of words, but must choose your battles carefully.  Platonic relationships are favoured over romance at this special time. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
You may have trouble achieving an ambitious goal, but patience will bring its own rewards.  Bear in mind the success of a new venture or fledgling relationship depends largely on input from another party. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Make the most of your opportunities or time will beat you.  Moon in hard-working Virgo encourages you to take care of practical tasks, make decisions on behalf of others and keep your eye out for new ideas. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
By keeping the lines of communication open you will cultivate happier relationships and pick up useful information.  Your mood is likely to be nostalgic during this period, but you will also be able to see the big picture. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
Rather than retracing your steps, accept that destiny has brought you to this point.  Events could occur out of the blue and you must remain open to new ideas if you want to enjoy the festive period. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
Make your commitments and promises with an open heart.  Loved ones will expect the most from you during the festive week and unless you sacrifice some of your own needs or desires, close relationships will suffer. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
If there is a crack in one of your close relationships, now is the perfect time to fix it.  You have a flair for sympathising with others, but a blind spot when it comes to your own shortcomings. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
Someone who thinks differently to you deserves a hearing and a little understanding.  Moon in your relationships sector helps you tune into the needs of others and come up with practical solutions to their problems. 

YOUR DAY
Moon in fussy Virgo prompts people to pigeonhole others and double standards are likely to be set.  The intentions behind most actions will be good, but it is important not to criticise people who are simply doing their job.  Gather information and put the finishing touches to projects or special events.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Happier times are in store and someone you encounter early in the year may be part of the reason your life takes a turn for the better.  Extra responsibilities may curb your freedom mid-2006, but you will gladly make sacrifices for the good of friends and loved ones.
