KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
The best icebreaker is humour. Serious is not today's style, although you do know instinctively when to be gracious and when to act the fool. Your only challenge lies in coming up with new material.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You hold the balance of power but must use it judiciously. Keep in mind that not every issue is black and white and leeway must be granted for differing needs or views. Aim for the middle ground.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
An opportunity to lower your guard and have fun should be embraced. Months of toiling or taking life seriously can now be put in the past and lighter-hearted interests pursued. Your worst nightmare is growing stale.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Ignoring life's harsher realities does not make them go away. Instead it leaves you with a false impression of your current situation. Draw on that inner strength you possess and attend to problems one at a time.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
False flattery can be used effectively but sparingly on others. Stick to the guidelines of good taste and ply your charms for good rather than evil intent. Relationships currently have outstanding prospects for happiness.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Nothing can come between you and a loved one but the relationship might need some work. Reflect on what you used to have, then attempt to recreate a similar scenario. Near enough will be good enough.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Maintain a healthy distance between you and people or situations that wear you down. There are potential emotional risks involved and life is likely to be more peaceful if you follow your own path today.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Life's unexpected twists and turns are what keep it interesting. And despite the fact you often resist change, you now feel emotionally equipped. Destiny also has a hand in the direction you are about to take.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You stand out from the crowd today and despite being a reluctant player eventually revel in the attention. Your larger-than-life personality acts as a magnet and others are drawn inexplicably into your orbit.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Chase your dreams and follow your heart. The window of opportunity is about to open for your sign and those previously impossible goals can be pursued with greater ease. Nothing but lack of belief can stop you.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You feel more relaxed in informal settings and prefer casual contact to pre-arranged engagements. That way you have flexibility and can choose or whether or not to participate in events, depending on your mood.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Normally resourceful you are content to sit back and let others find solutions. Your strength today lies in bringing people together to share the load and resources. Learn to delegate duties without feeling guilty.
YOUR DAY
A sense of balance might be hard to find today. The elements of energy clash and what applies one minute might not be appropriate the next. For the best results, play events by ear and be prepared to change direction without prior notice.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
A metamorphosis turns you into a different person. Even before the transformation is complete you start taking control and advising others. Your newfound maturity takes you along interesting pathways this year but you never lose sight of your duties and obligations.
