ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Part of you yearns for a past situation, but your realistic side argues you must look ahead. Regrets or mistakes follow closely on the heels of a new Moon and lessons learned now allow you to move forward.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
One of your strengths is persevering when others would normally give up. A situation you find yourself in may test your mental endurance or physical stamina, but through tenacity you will earn tangible and subtle rewards.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
A situation that once seemed tedious may suddenly present a challenge. Lack of opportunity narrows your scope this week and with newfound maturity or determination, you will attempt to make a venture or relationship work.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Moon moving into your domestic zone raises questions about family issues, living conditions and personal responsibility. It may be time to talk openly with loved ones, or to clear away clutter and create a more harmonious environment.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
A tendency to make sweeping statements diminishes the impact of your ideas and arguments. Do your research, pay closer attention to detail and listen carefully to what others have to say. Idealism could be your downfall.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
If you have been feeling emotionally fragile or your spirits are low, ruling Mercury provides a timely boost. Words will come easier, invitations may flow in or an unexpected opportunity paves the way for increased earnings.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Tacit understanding between you and a kindred soul provides an emotional and spiritual anchor. Moon moving into your sign makes you more vulnerable, but the support of someone special protects you from any real or perceived problems.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
It may be better for your mental and emotional health to take a break from the hustle and bustle of life. Time spent alone will help recharge your batteries and allow you to ponder your next move.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You might feel out of the loop or behind the times and will play catch up. The secret is to concentrate on what is going around you and take note of vital clues or the reactions of others.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
If a relationship or endeavour has lost its spark, the onus is on you to reignite the flame. Planets at the peak of your chart encourage you to work harder and longer to produce positive outcomes.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You may prefer relating to people in short bursts or will crave variety in your daily routine. Mercurial energy makes you more impulsive or interesting and fills your head with creative ideas. Put these gifts to good use.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
It may be difficult to change a loved one's mind-set, but chatty Mercury encourages you to have your say. Just bear in mind that this is not the best time to push a cause outside mainstream principles.

YOUR DAY
Moon and Mercury fire up debate, forcing people to see things from different points of view. A tendency to question authority, exert influence and give orders could mean there are more chiefs than underlings or time will be wasted arguing. Some lucky souls may be given a unique second chance to achieve an aim or resurrect a relationship.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your ability to talk yourself or a project up sees you winning extra support. Remember to stop short of making promises you cannot keep or exaggerating your own ability. A lucky break or chance encounter at the turn of the year paves the way for happier relationships in 2006.
