KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Your world seems brighter and you embrace change. Moon in the celebratory sector has the potential to lift your mood, enhance business and romantic partnerships or reverse fortunes. The charm factor is the ace up your sleeve.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A flutter of uncertainty causes second thoughts. Your swift analysis soon makes you realise your fears are unfounded, and a situation returns to normal. The secret to inner peace is a positive attitude.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
You favour offbeat ideas and unusual people. The lunar force casts a pink glow over your social life and you expand hobbies or your circle of friends. Sins of the past are put to rest this weekend.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Issues close to home need attention. Ruling Moon demands you set new terms of reference and stop wavering over important issues. Emotional detachment and reverse psychology are the keys happier alliances.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You turn from sinner to saint in someone's eyes. People approve of your new tactics and are happy to hop aboard the bandwagon. You are a social butterfly and may have a short attention span.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
The rose-coloured glasses come off. Once you see a situation or person in natural light, your expectations drop to a more realistic level. Placing loved ones on pedestals is a practice that must be stopped.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You unravel a complex problem and quickly grow in confidence. Moon in your sign puts the focus on personal affairs and provides you with uncanny insight. Relationships come up roses and your image receives a boost.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
As you bring closure a situation, your nerves settle. The lunar energy provides a fresh perspective on life and with a problem now behind you, new interests can be found. Support from loved ones is invaluable.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Your cheeky side emerges and fun becomes addictive. People who are practiced at letting their hair down in public make the best companions over the weekend. Despite the frivolity, good progress is made.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
You reach a decision and put beliefs into practice. Moon in your zone of status supports a move and eliminates the need for personal regret. Competitive people keep you on your toes while offering support.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
An action-oriented pattern promotes daring exploits. You throw down the gauntlet to competitors and live life with a newfound passion. Outside influences conspire to help you, while closer to home support is limitless.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
You understand that nothing stays the same but resist change. Progressive planets drag you into the future and while the ride is bumpy, you are pleasantly surprised by the destination. An update is long overdue.

SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
The spoken word is sacred. Promises made must be kept and commitments adhered to despite any difficulties. People-pleasing planets ensure that everyone does their best to toe the line today.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
For the most part you follow trends. Co-operation is your key word and unless there is a crisis of conscience you refuse to rock the boat. Most of your relationships are mutually beneficial.

SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Logical arguments win the day. A tendency to analyse problems before giving answers is compatible with current cosmic energy. It is also helpful to brainstorm ideas before putting them into practice.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your investments pay dividends. In 2009 there is potential for financial reward, family additions or an upgrade of your home. At the very least you feel your luck has finally changed.
