KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
You are strong and vulnerable in equal parts. Just be vigilant when entering new ventures and double check facts before making binding commitments. Things might appear clear-cut but you must look below the surface.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Others would rather you acted spontaneously but caution is your middle name. You need time to consider cause and effect, as well as to weigh up peoples' motives. However, once a decision is reached you remain committed.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Your tight grip on a person or possession is a reflection of insecurity. Lighten up and learn that you cannot micro-manage every situation but might benefit from letting go. You are unlikely to lose what is rightfully yours.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
From an academic standpoint you deem yourself a cut above others. Quick-thinking Mercury is your mentor and it provides all those clever answers and witty retorts. If you feel flat physically, try a little gentle exercise.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
The opportunity to make amends should be seized upon. Once you put things right, a sense of completion or clear conscience quickly brightens your mood. Dignity and respect probably mean more to you than usual.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Mercury the communicator occupies your pleasure sector. The urge to expand your social circle might be stronger than usual and at the very least you should spend some time away from your usual environment or routine.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Straight talking is required to get a salient point across. The problem is you fear rejection and prefer a more diplomatic tone when addressing issues. Playing games can only lead to confusion and mixed messages.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
You prefer formal discussion to trivial chitchat. Mercury, the planet of discourse, brings up serious issues and provides the tools needed to make tough decisions. Your problem solving ability is suddenly second-to-none.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Watch your back but refuse to take no for an answer. The energy is manipulative and unless you remain vigilant, the upper hand can quickly be lost. Make it your way or the highway today.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Use your verbal skills as a means of persuasion. Mercury the wordsmith not only gifts you with good vocabulary but also silky smooth delivery. There is no need to exert pressure as others automatically fall under your spell.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
A red flag warns of trouble ahead. Decisive Mars in the sector of unease helps you identify problem areas and warns you to act quickly. Avoid kidding yourself about issues or going on wild goose chases.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
You change the dynamics in a relationship to achieve a more equitable distribution of power. And whereas in the past you might have apportioned blame to a particular person, you now take responsibility for your own actions.
YOUR DAY
Gratifying feedback helps reinforce past decisions. There could be an ego boost for those lacking confidence and relief for people taking risks. Moon in munificent Leo creates a spirit of generosity today and an element of good luck.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, makes a rare connection with your Sun. You can confidently tackle the big picture issues, broaden your horizons and escape the rut. During this auspicious cycle, targets can be reached with surprising ease.
