KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
You are locked in a battle between heart and mind. Loving Venus in the impressionable area compels you to act emotionally while logical Mercury, the thinking planet, encourages objectivity. When in doubt, seek advice.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A decision may be overturned to your advantage. Just when you think luck is running out, a plan unexpectedly comes together due to outside circumstances. People in authority are your friends rather than your foes.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Your resolve and inner strength are tested. The increasing mountain of tasks, obligations or requests proves draining but reserves of energy help you scrape through. If possible, organise a mini-break to recharge your batteries.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
The desire for change intensifies. Review your current set of circumstances and look for areas of life that need to be tweaked or transformed. The grass could well be greener on the other side.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Assertiveness is both your best and worst quality today. Some people admire your self-confidence while others deem you undemocratic. Take responsibility for your own actions and allow everyone else the right to decide.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
In work as in play you bring affability to the table. Some of your ideas are by definition unworkable but creative thinkers can be big winners today. Your mentor Mercury condones quirky behaviour.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You can stem the tide of panic by being well prepared. Finalise arrangements early and leave some spare time for necessary fine-tuning. Also, use plain language when talking to people about sensitive topics.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Make good use of your verbal skills. You can impart wisdom, motivate people and pass on useful information in a succinct way today. Rather than following strict protocol, relax the rules a little.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Pride prevents you from quitting. Consequently you persevere with a situation that brings neither pleasure nor profit at the end. Start reviewing your options and consider making a transition between the old and the new.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Thoughts turn to distant places or lost opportunities. Reach out and satisfy some of your restless urges, even if that means taking a leap of faith into unfamiliar territory. The path to enlightenment is not always smooth.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You are surprised at how quickly things can change. Moon in your sign brings emotional factors into play but fate is currently pulling the strings. There is no need to rationalise or justify lucky breaks.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Recent snags now seem irrelevant. You have learned new methods, established trust in people and generally put the past to good use. There is also an affable aura around both your personal and public personas.
YOUR DAY
Platonic relationships outdo romance. A meeting of the minds is more satisfying and has the potential to change personal directions. Even private mental challenges help keep things ticking over nicely today.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You are not afraid to pull up roots and transplant yourself or ideas elsewhere. Changes may be minor but they provide the variety you crave. Artistic skills must be put to good use
