PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
If you have recently undergone a change mind, heart or routine, you should soon start seeing the benefits. Something that was part of our life for months may have disappeared, but something new has taken its place.

To make the best use of passionate planets, concentrate on worthy causes, personal relationships and physical activity. You can also confidently act on inspirational ideas.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
The most fun you will have is planning for the future and forming special friendships. New vistas open up in 2006 and the people you meet are likely to have a profound effect on your life. Rather than looking on mistakes as setbacks, learn from them and vow to do better.
