KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Surprise developments provide an escape route from a rut you find yourself in. Be mindful of the lessons learned from your recent folly and put them to use in the future. Your good name needs to be protected.
TAURUS:
(April 21 to May 21)
Be productive by working to a schedule. One of your current skills is time-management but you are also a brilliant mediator and can bring people together. Network ideas and delegate the more mundane tasks.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Others are unaware of your needs and cannot read your mind. Hence, if you crave emotional feedback the obvious thing to do is ask for it. You might also consider repaying people in kind by offering praise.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
An idea mentioned in passing is worthy of follow-up. Mercury, the mind planet, is in your creative zone and a period of brilliance is forecast for your sign. The mood is also playful and you shine socially.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You have a special way with people and automatically make an impact. However, introverted planets hold you back today and you might opt for more of a backroom role. Pick and choose your company carefully.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Sitting on the fence only delays the inevitable. If you are having difficulty making a choice or taking sides, remember that opportunities are often missed through hesitation. Decide now and worry about the consequences later.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Your chance for success moves up a notch, perhaps through help from an unexpected source. Whereas in the past you have relied on charm and wit to succeed, you now know that teamwork is the key.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Your sense of justice and fair play makes you cringe at the inequality of certain situations. But in a classic case of irony, you reveal personal bias when making judgements. Mercury in Scorpio demands a lift in standards.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
If you have been feeling pessimistic, a glimmer of hope helps raise your spirits. In the recent past your control over events has been limited but now you are able to manoeuvre situations your way.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Curiosity lures you towards unique people and subjects. Driven by a rebellious streak, your tastes are more diverse than usual yet you maintain harmony by flying beneath everyone's radar. Lunar energy protects you from harm.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
One of your most redeeming features is impartiality. You take ownership of your decisions and reject any inducement to swap sides. Analytical Mercury, now at the peak of your chart, further validates your stand on issues.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Heed your inner voice before making a pledge. Intuition ties in well with intellect today and you can use them in tandem whenever important issues arise. Others admire your ability to choose wisely and well.
YOUR DAY
Moon in authoritative Capricorn dictates the tempo. There is no leeway for people who lack ambition or motivation but plenty of rewards for those who act sensibly. Mercury, the planet of intellect, makes it easier to absorb information.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
After a meditative interlude, you are ready to tackle the big issues. Money and security take top priority but you are ambitious in other areas as well. Even relationships must serve a useful purpose in upcoming months.
