KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A sense of winding up rather than slowing down sees you
experimenting. Nine times out of ten you will make the right choices
and even the odd failure could prove beneficial in the long term.

TAURUS:
(April 21 to May 21)
Never take your eyes off the ball and refuse to give in. That
stubborn streak you are famous for could well become your best asset,
especially in situations that require sharp instincts and plenty of
tenacity.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
If loyalties are divided, lean towards those people who have pledged
allegiance in the past. It's payback time and you can show your
appreciation as well as call in favours. Treat everyone as an equal.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Obsession over trivial issues causes a loss of overall perspective.
Avoid getting bogged down in detail, choose your battles carefully
and conserve energy for the things that matter most in life. Mercury
causes thoughts to spin.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You have the best of both worlds and can enjoy greater freedom while
making a valuable contribution. The culmination of recent efforts
looms large and there is a sense life is about to become a whole lot
easier.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
As you struggle with a choice, self-doubt could creep in. But
despite the odd glitch in proceedings, today promises more wins than
losses. You might need to bite the bullet and hope results fall your
way.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
A standoff is something you hate but there is no thought of giving
in. Instead you are likely to wait until an adversary makes the
first move and in the meantime will tolerate a prickly situation.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
On first glance a person or idea appears seductive. However, all is
not what it seems and caution is called for. Avoid falling prey to
false flattery and use your analytical powers in the decision-making
process.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Ask probing even if you fear the answers. It is important to find
out where you stand and what others are up to, particularly in light
of the deceitful influences affecting your sign. Play it smart today.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Someone with a strong will might be trying to wear you down. And
while his or her methods appear subtle on the surface, there is no
mistaking the underlying message. Chances are you will eventually
give in.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Before expressing a controversial view, double-check that it will
stand up to scrutiny. You might believe you have all the answers but
there could be someone waiting in the wings eager to trip you up.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Normally you value privacy but at this time prefer to air thoughts
and feelings publicly. The planetary trend is towards more open
communication and you should take comfort in the fact there will be
no reprisals.

YOUR DAY
With the Moon moving into playful Gemini opinions could be laced with
wit or sarcasm. The good new is that greater flexibility allows
people to work at their own pace and at a time that suit them.
Analysis of problems is likely to be overdone.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Even up the ledger by making amends or practicing forgiveness. The
year ahead is all about re-structuring and consolidation, so start
building strong foundations for future success now. Remember, every
action has a reaction and you must be accountable.
