ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Someone who is good-looking or a charmer will either spring a surprise or take control. There is a fine line between mentor and manipulator and the onus is on you to spot the difference. Don't be naïve.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
If there have been dark clouds hanging over your love life or career, they will gradually begin to clear. Yours is usually a matter-of-fact sign, but you may be more in touch with your idealistic side today.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
You can gain a competitive edge over others by increasing your output at work and making better use of your personal time. Despite a recent setback or disappointment, you will attack life with newfound confidence.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
New doors of opportunity open up and you will progress in leaps and bounds. Some of you may make a major career decision, while others commit to an emotional situation that fills a void in their heart.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
If you want to be liked or appreciated, give out more love and support. The time has come to stop make excuses or playing the role of victim and put the needs of others above your own.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Moon shifts from the secretive part of your chart to the extroverted sector. A recent lesson you learned about your place in a relationship or joint venture can now be put to good use and expanded upon.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Mars renders you stubborn, while the Moon makes you more secretive than usual. You may become obsessive about an issue or person that has dominated your thoughts, or you will sneak around behind someone's back.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
The Moon slips into your relationship sector and whether you are blissfully attached or contentedly single, a burst of romance helps lift your spirits. Confidence is boosted further by the presence of Mars in your communication zone.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Lunar energy heightens your senses and makes you aware of what has been missing from your life. Whether or not you can fill the void remains to be seen and the best you can do is set realistic goals.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Whether you experience mood swings or there is a last-minute change in plans, it will be difficult to stick to routine. Some gentle form of relaxation or physical exercise will help you cope with the erratic energy.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You may be struck by the travel bug or will crave a change in routine. With the focus on family and home, you can now put plans into action and outlay money to beautify your surroundings.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Rather than sweating over trivial issues, fix your sights firmly on the bigger picture. This is a good time to amend plans for a financial venture, holiday, or family event, but remember to allow for unexpected contingencies.

YOUR DAY
With Moon moving into practical and careful Taurus, it may be difficult to get agreement or quick decisions. Controversial issues should probably be kept off the agenda until the energy lightens up and people with emotional problems must be sidestepped. Those who are usually driven by greed, or prefer to act in their own best interests, may be even more selfish today.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
A person, project, or desire you had forgotten about or purposely put out of your mind, may be back on the agenda before the middle of the year. You will be both pensive and philosophical in 2005, and many issues will touch you on a soul-deep level. Spend time alone.
