KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Mental and emotional issues could be draining, but ruling Mars fortifies you when the going gets tough. Be sure to put your message across in a succinct way, as others may try reading between the lines.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Someone who openly shows affections warms your heart. Moon in the relationship sector serves as a reminder that love is important in the world of tactile Taureans. Creativity is also another positive outlet for your emotional energy.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Act from your own initiative to show you have what it takes to succeed. Someone may be watching and judging you on current performances. Difficult decisions are made easier by ruling Mercury at a compatible angle.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
After taking a good hard look at a situation, you reach a miraculous conclusion. The answer to something has been right under nose, but until now you probably have not searched deep enough. Celebrate your success.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
A brighter outlook helps boost your confidence. Whether you have been seeking a new sense of purpose, commitment from others or love and laughter, great strides forward can be expected in the weeks ahead.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Fears and phobias can paralyse you with indecision and must be exorcised. Begin by examining the root causes of problems before working on practical ways to beat the symptoms. Bottled up energy will soon be released.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Resistance to a plan can be overcome with charm and open communication. You may have to work harder and smarter than usual, but the extra effort will help you win over even the hardest heart.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
If you feel self-conscious, avoid situations that put you in the spotlight. Working behind the scene best suits your mood today and where possible you should also limit the amount of new commitments you take on.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
A situation that made you think twice will in hindsight prove a valuable lesson. Now when you are confronted with a similar set of circumstances, you might be more circumspect with your words and actions.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Rather than using words, let your actions do the talking. Show off abilities in practical ways at work and lead by example at home or socially. This is a month where empty promises erode trust in relationships.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Conduct yourself with style and grace today. Image and appearance are equally important, especially when dealing with people in formal situations. In casual settings, you can lower your guard and show your less-than-perfect side.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
The action planet Mars dominates the part of your chart that rules career and status. This prompts you to fight harder for financial reward and recognition from people in authority. It also makes you more ambitious.
YOUR DAY
The sultry energy causes people to brood when hurt. And to coax others out of their shell, it may be necessary to use sweet-talk and inducements. Provided you stay within the boundaries of good taste and fairness, you can do whatever it takes to accomplish goals.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your altered perspective brings you back down to earth. Somehow people and issues that once bothered you will fade in importance. Conversely, the simple things in life may now elicit the most pleasure. Jupiter makes you happier, more co-operative and a tad luckier.
