KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Long-winded explanations are uncalled for. Enlighten others in a concise way and leave out superfluous or potentially incriminating information. Flashes of inspiration come from nowhere this weekend and help save your skin.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A penchant for neatly tying everything up is both useful and rewarding. Not only does it clear space for something new to enter your life but also provides a much-needed boost to personal confidence.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Circumstances force the resolution of a personal quandary. There is nothing haphazard about the way events unfold but more a case of fate working its magic. Changes might be unexpected but are for the better.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Inflammatory remarks made today mean nothing tomorrow. The lunar energy hoses down criticism, cools tempers and helps wipe out unpleasant memories. Over the weekend you are passionate, poised and practical in equal amounts.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Put a problem to rest and set new terms of reference in a relationship or situation. The lunar energy makes you more aware of your options and encourages you to work out differences with loved ones.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
If your plan is to make an entrance, pay closer attention to your appearance. The opportunity to impress people might be fleeting but must be fully exploited. Approach situations confidently and without fear of failure.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Despite not being entirely happy about the situation, you play the role of subordinate with dignified grace. Today's energy suits your mood but there is likely to be a subtle shift tomorrow and frustration could set in.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Recent tensions fade as you regain the upper hand in a relationship. And as the urgency goes out of a situation, your focus shifts to practical matters. The extra spring in your step helps you work harder and smarter.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
A load you have been carrying progressively lightens. And now that you can breathe a little easier, you realise how tough a situation has been. Set aside time for yourself and engage in a creative hobby.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Dabbling in different activities can be both edifying and fun. And because you are conscious of living life to the full, few activities are off limits. Burn the midnight oil and act on bright ideas.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
An underlying issue rises to the surface and the air is cleared. Luckily, Moon in your sign makes you the master of diplomacy and you put people at ease using polite language. Life suddenly seems rosy.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
As the Moon approaches your sign, something you have worked for comes within reach. Take the social initiative this weekend and make arrangements on behalf of your group. You have a flair for leadership.
SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
Moon in wacky Aquarius suggests anything can happen. People are unreliable, unpredictable and might make statements simply for the shock value today. But the good news is loyalty and principles are rarely compromised during this lunar phase.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Now that a chapter is closed you can start afresh. A feeling of personal empowerment sees you breaking away from personal or career constraints and acting independently. Not even the obvious teething problems dent your confidence.
SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Decadence reduces output but increases enjoyment. The senses rule today and it might be difficult to resist the many temptations on offer. Despite the resulting regrets or costs, indulging in creature comforts is one of life's real pleasures.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Working in consultation with others can result in problems being halved and profits doubled. You also benefit from the emotional satisfaction that partnerships bring. The theme of sharing and caring runs throughout your new birthday year.
