KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Your savvy ideas provide valuable input. Networking is a strong suit for Aries' natives today and by brainstorming with others, some fantastic results can be achieved. Mercury the mind planet also improves your word skills.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
With certain aspects of your life now falling into place, there is more time to devote to practicalities. Once you clear away the backlog of chores, new business or romantic opportunities can be pursued.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Completion comes within arm's reach but it is too early to start celebrating. Instead you must fine-tune last-minute details and prepare your sales pitch. There could be hidden hostilities to your plans.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You hold a little of yourself back. Mercury, the planet of thought, occupies your zone of secrets and you impart information on a needs-to-know basis. Others might probe but your lips are tightly sealed.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
There is a marked difference between incompetency and laziness. If the former holds you back, engage in study or research but if the latter applies, stop making excuses and start pulling your weight. Respect must be earned.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You strive to be heard but manage to remain cool under pressure. Ruling Mercury moves into the capable part of your chart and rather than resorting to insults, you display grace under fire. Others are impressed.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Your inner voice imparts the wisest advice. Mercury at an inspiring angle delivers solutions to problems out of the blue and all you must do is stay attuned. As issues are resolved, your confidence grows.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Pride sees you putting up barriers due to fear of failure. Remember that positive thought is the forerunner to success and minor mistakes are part of the learning process. Take a chance rather than living with regrets.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You cut corners and tighten the purse strings. This tendency to micro-manage situations is out of character but necessary if your quest to remain solvent. Set ambitious goals and then apply yourself both diligently and efficiently.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
There are only minor differences between one option and another. Jupiter puts you in a win-win situation, allowing you the luxury of choice while also protecting you from failure. Take a leap of faith today.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Someone tugs at your heartstrings making it difficult to say no. Busy Mercury settles in your sign and keeping several balls in the air at once suddenly seems a snap. Needy people benefit from your generosity.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
A short attention span prevents you from being productive. You work and socialise in short bursts and seek variety in order to prevent boredom. Keeping track of your many commitments might be a tall order today.
YOUR DAY
Co-operation is the key to harmony. Mercury, the planet of networking, moves into friendly Aquarius and brings people together for common causes. Rather than there being leaders and followers, everyone is now of equal status.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You spot potential in people and situations that others overlook. Not only is your intuition is primed but you are also more adventurous than usual. 2008 sees you staging a mini-rebellion that sets tongues wagging.
