ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
You are unreserved by nature, but introverted planets tone down your behaviour and dampen enthusiasm.  The good news is you will be more responsible, dedicated and less likely to make silly mistakes.  Keep a low profile. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
Your mood may be engaging and thoughts of romance or escapism will sustain you.  Put social, travel or family plans in place and use your unique talents to make an occasion special for everyone involved. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
If you are anxious about an upcoming event or the expectations of others, make sure you are well prepared.  Knowledge will be power and the more you learn or practice, the more confident you will grow. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
An aspect of your life that has been out of kilter suddenly does a u-turn.  Sun in your opposite sign brings back some of the magic, while Moon in your communication zone makes relationships more fulfilling. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
Something forbidden may tempt you, but ethical aspects keep you on the straight and narrow.  Matters of conscience, morality or protocol are likely to arise and you will be tested in subtle but significant ways. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
Hard-to-please people could cross your path, but your honesty and good intentions will quickly win them over.  Current planetary trends suggest you will be admired by many and out of favour with only a few. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
There may be a flurry of activity at home or in the work place and the key is to stay in touch.  Actions and decisions made now are likely to have far-reaching consequences, so pay close attention. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Sun in your zone of interaction helps enrich relationships and brings unexpected lucky breaks.  Someone who has power, influence or a wonderful way with words could be the catalyst for change in your private or public life. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
Stick to tried and true methods rather than experimenting or overstepping your boundaries.  There may be time constraints today and a strong sense of purpose is critical to achieving your aims.  Watch your budget and manners. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
What begins as a simple situation or low-key affair could snowball into a major event.  Sun entering your sign foreshadows a flurry of activity in your personal life and an expansion of interests outside the home. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
You may do some serious thinking about your lifestyle or attitude.  Sun in Capricorn alerts you to physical changes that need to be made, toughens you up mentally and gives you an air of sophistication. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
Compatible planets put the focus firmly on communication and matters of the heart.  Some of you may be reunited with an estranged friend or relative, while others discuss holiday plans or share hopes and dreams for the future. 

YOUR DAY
Sun in pragmatic Capricorn heralds a stable and productive period.  And with Moon in hands-on Virgo, there is little likelihood people will shirk their duties or responsibilities today.  A strong sense of right and wrong makes it easier to choose or decide, and conventional rather than radical methods will work best.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your zest for life sharpens and you may seek new avenues of escape or creativity.  Restless urges mid-year could see you leaving one situation and seeking fulfilment elsewhere.  However, you must be wary of making changes for change sake and consult with loved ones before finalising plans.
