KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A small but significant victory is worthy of acknowledgment. And provided you show humility while giving credit where it is due, others could be inclined to share in the celebrations. Today is not good for new beginnings.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Life's simple pleasures are the most rewarding. Set the bar fairly low and you might be surprised when expectations are exceeded or promises surpassed. Where possible, stick with familiar people and stay on home turf.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Not only is your timing impeccable but you also possess amazing foresight. Use these gifts wisely and professional or personal success can quickly be yours. Even if a positive outcome seems improbable, trust your instincts
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You can appear offhand but in essence are simply shy. Your self-effacing attitude puzzles people and if you want to make progress, bravado is called for. If you still feel inadequate, try faking it.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
A significant turning point should soon put you on the path to redemption. Whether or not you have strayed far off course is irrelevant but the opportunity to redefine your boundaries cannot be overlooked.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Anything of value is worth making an effort for. If events slot too easily into place you feel cheated, while those hard-to-achieve goals bring a strong sense of satisfaction. Blow your own trumpet occasionally.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Since you faced a fear, self-esteem and confidence have probably soared. There is plenty more in the planets to suggest you can go further and surpass goals set earlier this year. Your inner strength sees you through.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
To avoid being influenced by others, watch out for hidden agendas. Seek information first-hand and look at situations through your own eyes rather than accepting the word of others. Protecting personal interests is vital.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Compliments given by charming people turn your head. But while any attention is flattering, you are the master when it comes to spotting fakes. Let flirtation be an ego-boost but look on it as ephemeral.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Do everything possible to preserve a situation before pulling the plug. That way you avoid both regrets and criticism further down the track. Ironically, the more things change for Capricorns the more they stay the same.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Emotional dramas might increase but you are adept at fanning the flames. The secret is to adopt a poker face and play people at their own game. It also helps to take things lightly today.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
High expectations only magnify disappointments. Keep hopes and dreams at a realistic level so that setbacks are put in proper perspective and relationships run more smoothly. Your own mood sets the tone this week.
YOUR DAY
There could be constant emotional or physical swings today. These ups and downs in mood or energy levels can be attributed to the declining lunar cycle. Relate to people in quick bursts and lower your expectations.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
A quick recap of recent past events allows you to act with value of hindsight. Then when opportunities are presented, ingrained wisdom helps you make the right choice. Expect more endings than beginnings.
