KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Navigating your way through the minefield of issues takes some deft
manoeuvring. Gear yourself up for a fight but avoid confrontation
wherever possible. Keeping a contingency plan up your sleeve is
critical this weekend.

TAURUS: (April
21 to May 21)
Now that you have made a fresh start, life shapes up more to your
liking. There is a sense you can fulfil your true potential without
having to compromise ideals. Also, relationships move up a gear.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
As you yield to someone's superior knowledge, start working out how
to get payback. Mind games are forecast this weekend and an agile
brain could be your greatest asset. Remember, revenge is a dish best
served cold.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Find yourself a captive audience before expressing your point of
view. Timing is everything and a sociable environment is the best
place for a sales pitch. Stay connected to people who can further
your cause.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Extra bounce in your step means you can squeeze more activities into
the day. Also, a no-nonsense approach to relationships implies lazy
loved ones will get away with less. Engage in a little imaginary
whip cracking.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
The hype around an event could be overstated but you enjoy
proceedings despite the anti-climax. With the emphasis on fun, you
are prepared to let your hair down without worrying about what other
people think.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
A diplomatic move on your part helps circumvent trouble. To keep
others happy you deliver results in a roundabout way without loved
ones being any the wiser. Co-operative energy is teaching you new
tricks.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
People are responsive to your needs and desires. Intuitively you
give back what you receive and the scope widens in relationships.
Perhaps you could also think about expanding lifestyle boundaries to
take in new experiences.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
If you inadvertently pour oil on troubled waters, try a quick back
flip. Bear in mind that bluntness is not honesty and sensitive
people require a different tone to thicker-skinned types. Awareness
is the key.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Affairs of the heart occupy much of your time but you have the smarts
to make fantastic headway. Liaise closely with others on social
arrangements and remember the more the merrier applies during the
weekend.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Niggling insecurities prevent you from reaching full potential.
Rather than presenting a self-assured image and trying to fool
people, be honest about your fears with a view to getting help.
There is no shame in neediness.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Intense Pisceans welcome the gentler pace and an easing of burdens.
Driven by a desire for harmony you see goodness in others and tap
into the power of positive thinking across all areas of your life.

SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
The energy is matter of fact today. Keep arrangements business-like
and be a stickler for time but avoid getting angry if plans go awry.
Also, with greater emphasis on value for money pastimes are likely to
be carefully chosen.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Instant gratification means nothing in the year ahead. Instead, you
set up scenarios that promise rich rewards and long-term security.
The sacrifice and hard work needed to achiever these aims is not the
least bit daunting to you.

SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Moon in Aquarius warns to expect the unexpected. Avoid trying to pin
people down or pigeonhole issues to suit your own agenda. The good
news is that diversity can be openly embraced and the underdog
becomes sacrosanct to many.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
A tendency to crawl into your shell when hurt is par for the course.
Avoid putting pressure on yourself to meet other peoples'
expectations and do whatever feels right at the time. Self-analysis
brings about positive change.
