KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Assume nothing and confirm every detail today. Jumping to conclusions or second-guessing others could bring you unstuck and cause embarrassment when what you really want is recognition. Accept input from the people around you.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Your humdrum world takes on an element of excitement. Adventure comes courtesy of compatible planets and while you overnight change is implausible progress is likely to be rapid. Strap yourself in for the ride.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Breaking out of old habit patterns is never easy. However, there is no time like the present to change behaviour that has cursed you in the past. Aim for perfection in every area of your life.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Before you embark on a venture, assess your aims and expectations. It is important not to scatter your energies or waste time due to poor planning. The more organised you are, the faster you reach your goal.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Praise has to be earned but lack of it makes you work harder. Once given the seal of approval from someone, you feel both vindicated and self-assured. Raise the bar even further for your next challenge.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Make an extra effort to understand the motives of others. The lunar energy breaks down communication barriers and provides you with insight as well as perseverance. Be level headed but learn to trust your hunches.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You are innovative but also good at research. If an opportunity lands in your lap, accept the challenge and approach it from both angles. A bounce in popularity could come from your show of courage and commitment.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Raising your tone or resorting to sarcasm is unflattering. As an alternative, you can try out-manoeuvring others through clever tactics and forward planning. Use your intellectual skills in a positive and well-intentioned way.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You eye for detail could currently be out of focus. Rather than relying solely on your own powers of observation, check with someone you trust before making judgements. It is better to be safe than sorry.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
While you are well aware of the machinations going on, your choice is to remain neutral. Past experience has taught you that involvement in office or family politics leads to trouble and drains your energy.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Once your mind is made up, nobody can dissuade you from a particular course. And while today's energy is both resolute and reckless, you manage to dodge all the bullets by keeping your head down.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Colourful people keep you amused and exert a positive influence. The ladder of success is ripe you to climb, while your place in the social pecking order looks set to rise. Jump aboard the bandwagon now.
YOUR DAY
Conditions are fertile for developing strategies and solving problems. Close scrutiny is the key to success, especially where the fine print requires detailed interpretation. People who share similar ideals and ambitions are magnetically attracted to each other.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
There is more disparity than usual between your external and internal world. Regardless of what is going on around you, the need for introspection is particularly powerful. Take the time and space needed for personal growth.
