KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
You set your own terms and lead from the front. The stars align nicely in the area of self-confidence, bringing your qualities of courage and good management to the surface. Communication is also a strong point.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Your biggest challenge comes from smooth talkers. Kindred souls are easy to manage and understand but people who spin situations to their own advantage confound you. Be choosy and remain on alert all day.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Venus, the planet of social interaction, moves into your sign. Chances are your situation will either subtly or overtly change, allowing you more contact with people on your wavelength. A loss or farewell is also possible.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your shadowy traits of sulking or turning your back on others could emerge. To reduce fallout withdraw from the crowd or work behind the scenes. The morose energy is only temporary and for the most part harmless.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Because your reasoning is so sound, others accept your word. As this weekend's tacit leader of the pack you can expect a loyal band of followers to leave the decision-making in your capable hands.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
On the outside a relationship seems amiable but reading between the lines tells a different story. The more you attempt to maintain an air of normality, the less likely you are to convince other people.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Success is only a step away and you can speed up the process by enlisting help. Recruit people who think outside the square but brainstorm a few ideas before settling on a course of action.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
A brief loss of direction is nothing to worry about. Get back to basics this weekend and reflect on where you went wrong before moving forward. Once you make a pledge or commitment, follow it through.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
As peace-loving Venus moves into the relationship sector, your emotional and physical health tends to pick up. Laughter, witty banter or a more fulfilling social life are all possibilities for the short-term future.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Take a fresh look at your lifestyle with a view to curbing indulgence. The lunar energy urges you to think smart and focus on building up a nest egg or getting back into good physical shape.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Take stock of a situation and formulate positive plans for the future. After a fluctuating period of luck and misfortune, the scales of balance come to a rest and all you have to do is maintain equilibrium.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
You appear passive to others but have a steely resolve. Anyone who is disloyal, deceptive or unreliable can expect the cold shoulder from you this weekend. In your eyes, matters of the heart take precedence.
SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
Venus, the planet of love, moves into mercurial Gemini. Keep relationships interesting by adding a little spice or springing surprises on loved ones. Relating to others in short bursts is preferable at this particular point.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
To broaden your horizons in the year ahead, look for a mentor, call in favours and seize on opportunities. You can make your own luck by being proactive rather than waiting in the wings.
SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Lead with your head not your heart today. The energy is cerebral and answers must be based on logic in order to make sense. Similarly, when putting forward a case for consideration use sound reasoning.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Make up a wish list and tick items off as each is attained. Whatever you focus on can become a self-fulfilling prophecy but the secret lies in working hard. Support from others is invaluable.
