KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Being loved and needed boosts your health. Moon in Aries puts you at the centre of attention but in a subtle rather than showy way. Others are eager to earn your affection
and tend to your wishes.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You juggle several situations with good humour. Placid Venus in the social sector teaches you how to use verbal skills cleverly and charm to full advantage. You earn admiration from others over the weekend.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Your flair for inspiring people boosts popularity. It also provides leverage when negotiations are required or you want to call in past favours. You say the right words at the most appropriate moments this weekend.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You are not normally a cheerleader but egging others is your sole objective. Inhibitions are swept away by the force of Mars and you take centre stage with confidence. The underdogs value your vocal support.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Buoyed by recent success you push ahead with a bold plan. Keep in mind that confidence comes from knowing your market and getting people of influence onside. Venus the flatterer makes you a magnet for compliments.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Warm feelings wash over you as loving Venus settles in the affection zone. Expect your popularity to spike and money to become less of a problem. Polish up your image but remain true to yourself.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Even as part of a crowd you feel disconnected. What you need is an appropriate outlet for those creative talents and a focus for your love. Single out pastimes and people that make your heart sing.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Be wary of taking on too much and draining valuable energy reserves. Nutrition, fitness and your emotional welfare must remain top priorities, while a dose of self-awareness would also be timely. Concentrate on number one.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Acting on intuition is recommended in affairs of the heart. Loving Venus dominates your domestic zone and saying yes to family members seems the right thing to do. Remember to nurture yourself as well.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
A never say die attitude drives you. Gritty Mars in your sign toughens you up, while ruling Saturn pushes you to experiment and spread your wings. Your efforts draw gasps of admiration from others.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You lack ambition but compensate with a vivid imagination. A desire to outwit others is a primary objective and whether it is done via humour or manipulation makes very little difference to the results.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
The odds fall in your favour and you are emboldened to take risks. Venus in your sign attracts luck, love and improvements to your lifestyle. There should be no shortage of friends or mentors this weekend.
SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
Cut back on commitments and let life unfold. Those who live in the moment and show generosity of heart or spirit are likely to be the most content. Chasing rainbows is a worthy pastime.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You thrive on encouragement and show affection in return. Give and take is this year's general theme and peace at all costs your personal mantra. Private and public dealings run smoothly.
SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Attention seeking is par for the course. People are generally unpretentious during this phase but not averse to stealing the limelight from others. Decisions made now are beneficial in the longer term.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
You trade prominence for a peaceful life. In a year of personal growth, you gain strength and knowledge from insular activities rather than the outside world. A change of values is likely.
