KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
In afterglow of a successful gathering you experience warm and fuzzy feelings. The energy is healing at this time and as one life chapter closes another opens up. You see sense in proposals others offer.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Your attempts to keep everyone happy take energy. Nothing is emotionally or physically impossible but periodic breaks are mandatory today. You have finished paying lip service to situations and now prefer a hands-on approach.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Paltry excuses won't wash. Others are familiar with your methods of avoidance and are looking for commitment. Accept fate and put yourself out for the sake of peaceful relations with the people around you.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
A change in your outlook on life and newfound diplomacy all round puts the spark back into relationships. Loving Venus puts you on an emotional winning streak while Sun in the partnership sector renders you sociable.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
There are few places to hide but plenty of social outlets. Even when you crave solitude, people and responsibilities keep you at the forefront of the action. Look for the potential in situations and not the pitfalls.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You play the percentages and emerge a winner. There is a little more luck directed towards your sign, so capitalise by trusting your instincts. Burdens are gradually dissipating as the year draws to a close.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
A plan crystallises but you avoid discussing it. There are details to finalise before bringing other people into the picture and asking for assistance or approval. Use the quiet times for paperwork or personal hobbies.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
An event or timely reminder brings you back down to earth. Life flows at a more sedate pace and getting back to basics is suddenly important. Planets in practical aspect ensure you finish the chores you start.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You give love unconditionally and it boomerangs straight back. Venus, the planet of affection, spreads a warm glow over relationships and prompts you to follow your heart not your head. Cast that social net wider.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
If you balance bouts of giving with moments of self-nurturing, events should run smoothly. A recent all-or-nothing approach may have left you feeling weary or put relationships out of balance.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You absorb information easily. Your analysis may be negative at times but there is no doubting the work you put into assignments. As for emotional issues, try to be non-judgemental and give others some leeway.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Keep an open mind and heart. There is a danger of miscommunication, especially between people who skirt around issues rather than coming straight to the point. Your current strengths are empathy and common sense.
YOUR DAY
High standards are set and attention to detail is important. A-type personalities shine in this environment but even the lesser lights can excel if they aim for perfection in every task they undertake.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
A whisper in someone's ear initiates contact with influential people. Who you know is more important than what you know and timing is everything in 2009. Take advantage of the help at hand.
