KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
You hold sway over others and can call the shots. This is a special time for both personal and professional relationships, with most results falling your way. Set today's agenda with a clear conscience and determined approach.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You are encouraged to speak from the heart. The love planet Venus in intense Scorpio deepens relationships and whether you adore or dislike someone, feelings are close to the surface.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Working in fits and starts might not be ideal but the job gets done. You are adept at switching your mind from one situation to another and adapt more easily than others to changes in plans.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Rather than taking directions from others, march to the beat of your own drum. Mars the mover prompts you to break free from constraints and make a stand for the principles you truly believe in.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Someone acknowledges your efforts by providing positive feedback. Praise and reward put a spring in your step while also justifying your recent dedication to a task. You have overcome many hurdles along the way.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Mixed messages strengthen your belief one minute and shatter it the next. Being unsure where you stand is unsettling but thankfully the mood is only temporary. Fill the gaps in your day with pleasurable pursuits.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
The temptation to back out of promise must be resisted. Indecision is part of your psyche but letting others down only creates a bad impression. Overcome apathy and cowardice by being more self-disciplined.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Despite being caught in the middle you display excellent mediation skills. In a departure from your usual modus operandi, you adopt a low-key role and become the lone voice of reason today.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
The people you team up have a bearing on your happiness. Gravitate towards like-minded friends and avoid those who often pour cold water on your ideas. Casual conversations can produce some brilliant concepts.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Rather than seeking to escape your problems, confront them head-on. Wherever you go your troubles follow and the sooner you face the music the happier life will be. Stand up for yourself and loved ones today.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Keep your composure and repeat positive thoughts to yourself. Moon moving into your sign makes you more edgy and trivial issues are magnified out of all proportion. Latch onto problems in the very early stages.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
If you are anxious about deadlines, set a strict agenda. The planets make it more difficult to concentrate today but if you tackle assignments one at a time, the majority of your aims can be achieved.
YOUR DAY
The energy is unpredictable but there is plenty of goodwill. Today's key to harmony is listening to what others have to say without imposing your own bias. The occasional reality check will help show the true picture.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You are sympathetic to others and happily sacrifice your time. There is also a greater sense of belonging in the year ahead and contentment is found in life's simpler pleasures. Make plans that include loved ones.
