ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Excitement about an enterprise or journey may be tinged with nervous anxiety. There is a danger you will exaggerate situations this week and worry about those things you are absolutely powerless to change. Get back to basics.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You may come up with a bright idea, but will have to beg, steal or borrow resources to turn it into practical reality. An ambitious Capricorn or big-hearted Leo could be the key to a successful partnership.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
If you try to browbeat others or take charge in a situation, you will come off second best today. Someone who is selfish, stubborn, or single-minded is likely to oppose your plans and impede your progress.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
An urge to control your environment or manipulate others will either backfire on you or diminish your standing and popularity. If you want to win hearts and influence people, be prepared to grant everyone a democratic vote.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Rather than seeking revenge for perceived hurts, resolve to avoid a particular person or situation in the future. You could be prone to reading between the lines, looking over your shoulder, and suspecting hidden motives this week.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You will either make a valuable contribution in the workplace or help re-establish harmony on the home front. Your sign is focussed at present and little is likely to escape your attention or test your capabilities.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
If you crave attention, excitement or variety, expect your wishes to be fulfilled this week. The only problem is, once the novelty wears ff you will once again be looking for new sources of personal satisfaction.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
You may be eager to impress your peers, but must be both realistic and modest about your own capabilities. A legal matter could be cause for concern, or there will problems with a joint financial venture.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You might beat yourself up over a silly oversight, slip of the tongue or lost opportunity. However, the sooner you accept there is no going back, the quicker you can move on and vow never to repeat past mistakes.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Rather than scattering your energies or frittering away time, focus on tasks that make full use of your talents. You could be inclined to sell yourself short when self-belief is critical if you wish to succeed.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
A stalemate leaves you feeling frustrated and hamstrung. And until you can negotiate a compromise or get the green light, there is little left to do but mark time and keep hoping. Put pressure on others.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
The opinions of other people may influence you more than usual, but you will pick up valuable advice and useful information along the way. Someone who was once your enemy may suddenly become a trusted friend or ally.

YOUR DAY
The energy today is vague and rather than trying to pin people down or pigeonhole them, it would be best to live and let live. There may also be a temptation to spill secrets, seek acceptance or search for that elusive dream. However, fanciful notions will lead nowhere and wherever possible energy should be channelled into creative, idealistic or helpful endeavours.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
There may be a welcome addition to the family, your social circle could expand, or you will work alongside someone who acts as a mentor. And while there may be extra responsibilities in the year ahead, a strong sense of belonging means you will happily make sacrifices for others.
