ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A throwaway comment turns into a timely piece of advice. You are inspired to reach new heights simply by listening to what others say. Rules and regulations are of little value today.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You allow others their secrets and approach situations with healthy curiosity rather than any desire to probe. Moon in the inquisitive zone is both a blessing and a curse but generally speaking, ignorance is bliss.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Overstating issues can tarnish your reputation. Keep stories simple and avoid any cries for help unless the situation is dire. If you know where to draw the line, nobody will get hurt.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You decide to get real about a situation. The lunar energy encourages you to drop your defences and pour out feelings in an effort to win support. You are on a path of positive personal growth.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Rather than playing catch-up with the backlog, you constantly keep a clean slate. This means working smarter and harder but you revel in the challenge. Keep your mind and environment tidy this week.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
An aura of expectancy helps recharge your batteries. You even engage in a little future forecasting in an attempt to see what lies ahead. Just remember that an element of surprise is half the fun.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Your attempt to micro-manage events leads to exhaustion. Attention to detail and controlling other people is usually your forte, but a more laidback approach delivers just as much satisfaction. Take your foot off the pedal.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Your goals are nebulous and need to be revised. Avoid putting pressure on yourself to lock in plans but narrow your options down and make a heartfelt decision when the time is right.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Adrenaline rushes can be used wisely or foolishly. Whenever a sense of urgency strikes, take a deep breath and channel energy into worthwhile projects. Look for good long-term outcomes rather than instant gratification.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)When you ask questions, be prepared not to like every answer. To protect your feelings, seek information on a need-to-know basis and use discretion when dealing with people. Too much knowledge can be dangerous.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
There is a sniff of change in the air and you feel nervous. Part of you yearns for variety, but another side nurses a fear of the unknown. Do your homework before the transition period.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
A question mark hangs over a relationship. Despite being reluctant to open up old wounds, you long to bring closure to an issue. Allow yourself time to think about the best method of approach.
YOUR DAY
Tradition values are important. Loyal and conservative energies blend to bring out old-school ideas or conformist opinions. Relationships benefit from handshake business agreements and emotional support from loved ones.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
A change of approach or mindset enhances your chances. You are prepared to make changes in the career, domestic and personal areas but never on a whim. Someone puts you up on a pedestal.
