KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Relationships are plainly on your radar. The emotional Moon brings backburner issues to the forefront and provides a fertile environment in which to sort them out. The flow of love and conversation might be made easier.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Inquisitive Mercury moves into your sign with little fanfare. The only hint that energies are changing is your curiosity about issues that usually bore or escape you. Clear answers come unexpectedly or your knowledge suddenly expands.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Flattering remarks might go to your head more than usual. If you have recently been starved of praise or compliments, use any plaudits as fuel to create further good impressions. You deserve your time in the sun.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
In a hurry to finish, you could easily trip yourself up. Slow the tempo a little today and concentrate on the journey rather than the destination. Mercury's move into your house of politics expands your diplomacy skills.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Ethics and loyalty figure strongly in the decision-making process. People who have supported you in the past score points, while your own moral code dictates terms. Others admire the strong stance you take on issues.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You know exactly when to curb your tongue. Ruling Mercury moves into a friendly position and renders you discreet in the company of others. There could be a renewed interest in certain topics or a desire to travel.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Moon in your sign puts you in the emotional box seat. Apart from being attuned to almost everyone in your environment, you also zoom in on particular need and desires. Recognition could come via an alternative route.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Now is the time to explore intriguing issues. Mercury, the planet of curiosity, inhabits your sector of social awareness. You might sign up for a worthy cause or take it upon yourself to fight for someone's rights.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Inspired by passion you play favourites with people and projects. Some of your choices might be fickle but a renewed sense of purpose propels you forward and speeds up progress. Play to your strengths today.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Invest time and capital in blue-chip causes or funds. There are several influences driving you and while Jupiter favours expansion, ruling Saturn keeps you grounded. Low-risk strategies suit your personality and long-term goals.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Be diplomatic rather than provocative when arguing your case. Self-belief is written in the Aquarian horoscope and your opinions evoke a healthy dose of respect from others. Just avoid putting all your eggs in one basket.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Adversity currently brings out the best in your personality. While other people wilt under pressure you thrive on it and manage to meet deadlines with remarkable ease. A single-minded approach gets you a long way today.
YOUR DAY
Moon in Libra and Mercury in Taurus complement each other. Charm wins the day and a few well-chosen words or actions might be all that is needed to smooth troubled waters. Enjoy the creature comforts today.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Knowing what you want and being able to achieve your goals are two separate issues. Ideas might be plentiful but turning them into reality could prove difficult. Experiment and have fun while looking for your niche.
