KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
The best-laid plans could go astray yet still work to your advantage. If diversions and chance encounters disrupt your routine, go with the flow and see where it takes you. Progressive thinkers are your best teachers.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A recap of recent events might indicate where a situation went wrong. Take your share of the blame but avoid playing the role of martyr. If you can avoid making similar mistakes again, you have learned a lesson.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Despite restrictions you find a way to bend the rules. Your wily nature helps you find loopholes today, while Moon in the communication sector sharpens your sixth sense and gives you the gift of words.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Financial deals and problems must be carefully thought through this week. Whether there are large or small sums of money involved, double check facts and figures twice or seek a second opinion. Extra caution pays off today.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Various interests and responsibilities require you to flit from one person or location to another. And while there is danger you could scatter your energies, extra variety more than compensates for the slight drop in productivity.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Someone's false front could be a ploy to conceal problems. Be sympathetic but dig below the surface to see why an associate is acting out of character. Your ability to read between the lines is a valuable skill.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
If you want to be more loved, honour your promises and go the extra distance. Unselfish actions not only earn respect from others but they also deliver a sense of satisfaction and achievement. Get out and about.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Rather than suppressing thoughts and feelings, speak candidly and be prepared to accept the consequences. By being honest with others you avoid any build-up of resentment and the people around you know exactly where they stand.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Now that a niggling worry has been resolved, you are free to move on with daily life. Just avoid falling back into the trap of caring for everyone else's needs and neglecting your own. Balance is needed.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
What you consider truthful, others might deem tactless. Take a more measured line of attack with people today, regardless of whether you are dealing with subordinates or superiors. Thinking first and speaking later is the key.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
A recent shadow cast over one of your relationships clears. In the wash-up it becomes patently obvious that a misunderstanding occurred and more transparent communication is needed in the future. Avoid impetuosity today.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
It takes more than hope and desire to produce results. Efficiency and orderliness are required to meet targets but you can also create your own luck by being proactive. For maximum impact, take a few risks.
YOUR DAY
There might be a lot of hype around issues and discernment is needed. Even those who normally shy away from controversy could be inclined to speak out or hog the limelight. Extreme views that are expressed today should be taken with a grain of salt.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Fortune favours the brave during this fidgety phase. Whether or not you have second thoughts about a venture, give it a try. A few mistakes might be made along the way but anything is better than letting an opportunity slip through your fingers.
