Monday, September 25

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Someone may be deceptive or present a false image and it is important to look deeper before accepting what is on offer. It will be relatively easy to lose the upper hand in situations this week.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You will have an amazing ability to seize on opportunities that others overlook. Moon moving into Scorpio blesses you with a sixth sense and allows you to stay one step ahead of the competition today.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
There is a need to be more prudent in money matters and patient with the people you love. Avoid any tendency to make decisions based on emotion and judge each set of circumstances on its own merit.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You will identify strongly with people who are self-motivated and take direct action. This is a good week to team up with such individuals and also to mix business with pleasure. Extra income and fulfilment may result.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Change has recently been in the air and while you tend to resist it at first, you eventually see the merit in moving with the times. If you can remain flexible, further opportunities could come your way soon.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You will specialise in seeing through pretentious people and strange situations. Certain friends or colleagues may envy your ability to cut straight to the chase, but what the gift you currently have cannot be taught.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
If an eye-catching project or person presents itself, you will find it almost impossible to resist. And despite the fact it may be months before you see results, the fun will be in the journey not the destination.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Moon in your sign sees you gravitating towards people who are needy or like-minded. You may form a useful partnership soon or you will decide a situation is not working and attempt to make a clean break.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Try not to worry over situations you cannot change or scold yourself because of past mistakes. It is important to learn your lessons, but also imperative that you forgive and forget. Focus on practical matters today.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
It may be best to delegate certain tasks rather than taking too much on. Your communication skills are at a peak, but there will be limitations on the emotional and physical burdens you can sensibly cope with.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
If a secret or responsibility is weighing you down, consider sharing it with someone. A situation or solution may suddenly seem beyond you, but looking at it through objective eyes will help you find clarification.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
With the emphasis on expansion and adventure you may be keen yet afraid to spread your wings. Predictions are opportunity will soon come knocking and you must be prepared to think on your feet or take risks.

YOUR DAY
The lines between faith and favouritism may cross, making it difficult to judge where you stand. If there are doubts about what people say or do, intuition would most likely be the best guide. Meantime, Sun in Libra slows the pace and brings a longing for life's luxuries.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You must not allow sentimentality to rule in the year ahead. Base your decisions on practical considerations, taking love and loyalty into account but ultimately choosing what is best for everyone. Life should not be conducted in a hit and miss manner.
