KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Mercury, the planet of schedules and arrangements, moves into your sign. This is an excellent time to make plans, take trips and initiate discussions with others. You can also magically turn negatives into positives.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Certain misguided people see your actions rebellious. However, those in the know understand exactly where you are coming from. Just remember that you cannot please everyone and there is no need to seek approval.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Tip your hat at someone you believe deserves praise. Giving credit where it is due demonstrates an ability to play fair and shows what a good loser you are. Doubtless your input will be appreciated.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Several different options open up and you use instinct to choose. Whether decisions are based on emotional or psychological factors, the idea is to expand current horizons and widen your social or career prospects.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Any attempt to harden your heart might be seen as ruthless rather than self-protective. In truth you cannot cope with a certain situation or person and detaching yourself appears to be the best possible option.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
If a person offers support make a mental note to return the favour. The mood is receptive and some mutual backslapping could go a long way towards creating beneficial outcomes. Soften your stance and approach.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Engaging in self-deception can be a short-term fix to a longstanding problem. However, band-aid solutions are not usually your chosen method and pretence goes against the grain. Confront situations honestly and without delay.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Your rich language or extreme exploits make you more interesting but are basically out of character. Avoid trying to shock others to get a reaction and opt instead to middle-of-the-road behaviour. You have nothing to prove.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
A recent failure has taught you a valuable lesson. Unfortunately there is a danger of inadvertently repeating past mistakes and you must be aware of falling back into old habit patterns. Use your nous today.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
If unity is your objective, you can expect results sooner rather than later. With helpful planetary aspects in the areas of relationships and career, there are prospects of greater rewards for much less effort. Exploit these energies.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Social plans are worth making, if only to broaden your current horizons. The more visible you becomes in days ahead, the better your chances are of being in the right place at the right time.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
If you feel fragile, avoid problem situations and people who push the wrong buttons. Also, take the occasional break from routine and defer decisions weighing on your mind. You could also pass the baton to a protégé.
YOUR DAY
Situations are difficult to scrutinise. The forces are vague and rather than wearing hearts on their sleeves, most people will mask their feelings and intentions. On the upside, words are unlikely to be spoken in haste.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Make a determined effort to settle old scores, repay past debts and exploit inherent abilities. An opportunity exists to feather your own nest, although ethical behaviour is a must during this year long period.
