KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Before jumping aboard a rolling bandwagon, consider the long-range
costs and benefits. Things might not be as they seem and rather than
flowing with the tide of popular opinion, independent action must be
considered.
TAURUS: (April 21
to May 21)
Lunar energy brings on bright ideas and heightens self-awareness.
Brainstorm concepts with kindred souls but avoid going against your
instincts if a decision feels right. Life is slowly but surely
changing direction.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
An undeveloped skill can be polished and turned into a unique talent.
Just make sure you use your gifts in context and avoid scattering
energies by taking on too many tasks at once. Seek help from a pro.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Recycling old relationships and living on past glories stifles
personal growth. And while you are notoriously nostalgic, you accept
that fate is nudging you in a new direction. One particular prospect
holds great promise for the future.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
A request might not sit comfortably but you reluctantly concede and
carry out someone's wishes. Just make it clear that next time around
you would prefer longer notice, greater input or more detailed
information.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
The inference today is that you should think big and dare to be
different. If an opportunity arises outside your usual area of
expertise, adopt the attitude that you have nothing to lose and
plenty to gain.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
There is some emotional uncertainty around but comfort comes from
knowing you have handled similar problems before. Lead with your
head not your heart and the right note will be struck. Others are
surprisingly co-operative.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Events that occur shake you out of complacency and provide food for
thought. Taken one step further this could be the breakthrough or
turning point you have been waiting for. Throw caution to the wind.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
One-on-one relationships are far more enriching and easier to handle
than group situations. Despite your reputation as a friendly
extrovert, timidity could strike at the most unexpected or
inopportune times today.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Some salacious gossip could come your way but you should check it out
before passing it on. Gossip and secrets are fun, provided nobody is
hurt in the process of telling. Use your natural integrity to filter
out lies.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Not one to sit in judgement on others, you are a natural magnet for
those seeking advice on controversial or personal issues. Your
liberal attitude and problem-solving skills make you the perfect
counsellor today.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
If someone plays the sympathy card, you find it hard to resist his or
her pleas. Ideally, you should avoid being drawn into the emotional
dramas of others and save yourself unnecessary heartache or loss of
time.
YOUR DAY
Self-absorbed people might be in the majority. Turn inwardly for
answers today rather than wasting time telling your troubles to
others. Intuition peaks and everyone has the knowledge but could
well lack the self-belief to act on instinct.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Getting down to the nitty-gritty, you make a tough but liberating
decision. Life is luckier and harder all at once in the year ahead.
The secret lies in knowing that what is best for you is of benefit to
others.
