ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
The mood may be playful and social activity or relationships will be a great source of joy. Expect temptation to be placed in your path this week and be prepared to make daring or controversial decisions.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You can be formal in your dealings with outsiders, but should adopt a more casual approach in your personal life. You may have to wear many different hats and will have to adapt quickly to changing circumstances.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
You will be keen to raise the stakes in an ongoing negotiation with someone. You have the winning edge, but must be brave enough to trust your instincts rather than over-analysing situations or asking too many questions.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Events may seem to occur in random, but you will notice a pattern emerging. You love tying up loose ends and solving mysteries, so you will take great pleasure in watching the pieces of a puzzle fall into place.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You might shirk responsibility, but not without a twinge of guilt or remorse. Moon renders you rebellious, but at the same time the Sun pricks your conscience and helps you work out right from wrong.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You may become obsessed about a particular point and will refuse to let it go. Turn your attention to practical matters and bear in mind you could become your own worst enemy if you constantly ask questions.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
The stakes are high in a situation and you may waver over a decision or be reluctant to make a commitment. If you lead with your heart you can expect trouble. However, think logically and you will succeed.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Before you criticise the actions of others, be prepared to accept that some of the blame may yours. You could be inclined to set double standards or overlook your own shortcomings when greater accountability is called for.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You may feel overawed or out of your depth, but will probably manage to bluff your way through a situation. Mercury in Leo helps you find the right words, while Mars increases the pace at home and work.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Your memory or patience may be put to the test and either way you will have to dig deep. Clear the clutter from your mind and steer clear of negative people. The mood best suits goal setting.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Your actions and words may seem provocative to others, but you will revel in playing the role of devil's advocate. It seems you will find yourself at the centre of attention for all the wrong reasons today.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
You may be exposed to someone's dark side and will question his or her sincerity, motives or mind-set. In the end there are only two options, rise above the situation or eliminate that person from your life.

YOUR DAY
Rebellion is in the air and people who turn their back on convention or experiment with ideas will be the biggest winners. Think outside the square, ride on the coattails of positive people and refuse to be coerced into making decisions. Events may occur in lightning fast fashion, leaving little time to ponder the options or worry about possible consequences.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
As you let go of a person or situation, you will breathe a sigh of relief. It may have taken a while to reach this point, but you know in your heart a decision you make is the right one. Saturn leaving your sign means less personal burdens and greater financial rewards.
