KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
You turn heads and engage people. Mercury, the conversationalist, inhabits your social zone and others gravitate towards you. Exchange ideas, make plans and use your negotiating skills to obtain better deals for yourself.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Time is of the essence and deadlines may be missed. Take short cuts wherever possible but avoid fretting over situations that are outside your area of control. A mix-up could easily occur today.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Little things that have been missing from life may be restored. Divine intervention from Moon in your sign connects you to people who act as catalysts for positive change. Learn to read the code.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
If your patience is tested keep a cool head. Problems that have neither rhyme nor reason could come out of the blue and affect the dynamics in a relationship. If all else fails, simply walk away.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You become an active participant in life. The busy planet Mercury moves through your sign and provides a rush of mental adrenaline that triggers interesting ideas. Align yourself to different groups of people.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
To the naked eye a situation seems straightforward but peel away the layers and a more complex picture unfolds. Unravel facts and figures, avoid taking people at face value and shun self-deception today.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Your inbuilt radar leads you straight to the action. Mercury the mind planet helps you tune in and cut corners today. In addition, your sense of right and wrong ensures you stay within the moral guidelines.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Irrational fears shape the decisions you make. Use your imagination in positive rather than negative ways by channelling energy into happy situations. The cure for what ails you lies within but it requires self-belief to be effective.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
A tendency to follow the crowd is not a sign of weakness but a craving for company. Too much time alone takes the spark from your personality, while being around others provides the emotional oxygen you need.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
An unreliable person may threaten your plans today. Keep arrangements open-ended where possible and exclude those who are notorious latecomers. It pays to remember that you can only control your own actions.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Although the energy is somewhat erratic you adapt easily to changing circumstances. Choose events today that suit your personality and use your ability to think outside the box. Your ideas are quite unique.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
In a departure from usual practices you communicate logically rather than emotionally. You might also be inclined to give other people the benefit of the doubt or compromise when there is an impasse.
YOUR DAY
Moon in Gemini calls for lightning fast decisions to be made. Some of today's logic might be twisted but clever results are achieved nonetheless. Those who are flexible by nature are likely to fare best.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You close off on a deal. Life moves forward after months of preparation or stagnation and you sense the excitement. Big-thinking Jupiter raises your ambitions while business-like Saturn adds pragmatism.
