KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Shifting someone from a chosen position is a major task. However, your resolve to win a heart or mind prevents anything from getting in your way. Ambition and a single-minded approach make you a winner.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Your common sense outlook makes you easier than most to please. It is your lack of flexibility that precludes you from reaching full potential. Lighten up and accept that alternative ideas and methods have merit.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Debating the point gets you nowhere but keeps you entertained. When others refuse to be won over through charm, your next preference is to tease an opponent into submission. Ill-gotten gains bring an empty feeling.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Emotional security is currently linked to financial stability. One without the other leaves you feeling vulnerable yet achieving both simultaneously is a big ask. Consult with a partner every step of the way.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
You automatically assume the role of leader and expect others to follow. Now you are required to stop and deliberate whether or not everyone needs your guidance. Those who prefer independence should be let go.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Not suffering fools gladly allows you to take giant leaps forward. And in the end others will thank you for pointing out their mistakes or misgivings. Events today have a domino effect that benefits everyone.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Several different options open up and you are paralysed by indecision. Take a breath and weigh up the pros and cons in a calm manner. The right choices are made when you give yourself time and act rationally.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
A friend or sibling generates warm feelings. Problems and secrets might be shared, bringing you closer to a like-minded confidant and reminding you that you are not alone. Pass on words of wisdom to others.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
While you stubbornly stick to principle others make headway. Step up into the moment and accept that there is still a lot to learn. Suggestions and advice can teach you new and more efficient strategies.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Plans and decisions must be made for the greater good. Acting out of self-interest is not only short sighted but could also put you offside with people you hold in high esteem. Discuss the finer points.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You make a valuable ally out of common sense person. He or she might stop short of speaking on your behalf, but just having someone in your camp is a real confidence booster. Show your gratitude.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
The mood might be pensive but you remain remarkably upbeat. Moon in steadfast Capricorn boosts your resilience and makes you more aware of what is truly important in life. The rest can be left on the backburner.
YOUR DAY
A desire for excellence slows progress but produces perfect results. Quality is demanded across the board today and even the simplest of occasions should contain an element of style. What appears snobbish to some is proper behaviour to others. Follow protocol and mind your manners.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Early in the year you ponder new beginnings. It might take a while for momentum to build but a change in career, your personal life or appearance is inevitable by December. Capricorn enters your sign then and foreshadows a year of remarkable fortunes.
