Thursday September 7

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A tendency to think the worst means you may be pleasantly surprised when events flow in your favour. The lunar eclipse casts shadows over your optimistic self, but the good news is you will turn a corner.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Self-belief is your most powerful tool and the compatible lunar eclipse endorses recent actions and decisions. Those people prone to dismissing your ideas might suddenly be breathless with admiration and praise. Soak it up.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
The pressure may be on to meet deadlines, particularly with full Moon energy bringing situations to a climax. To ease the heightened stress, focus on one task at a time and seek practical support from your loved ones.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your ruling Moon is going through an uncommon eclipse, but because it falls in a fellow water sign there could be cause for celebration. Turn your attention to friends, lovers or children and switch on your nurturing gene.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
The lunar eclipse may bring an epiphany about an issue you have long kept to yourself. And whether pride or fear has prevented you from expressing feelings, you will see the merit in opening up old wounds.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
The full Moon may engender a sense of inevitability about where a situation is heading. Hence, rather than trying to tamper with fate you are more likely to embrace any lifestyle changes and count your blessings.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Despite arguing your case well, an opponent or pessimist may insist on having the last word. The lunar energy puts you on the back foot, but also reminds you that give and take is essential in relationships.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
A compatible lunar eclipse amplifies the undeniable chemistry you share with someone. And whether you feel physically, emotionally or intellectually attuned to this particular person, the relationship is a source of comfort and happiness.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
A domestic or family issue could reach breaking point and despite an aversion to conflict, you need to address the problem. The good news is you will have an instinctive sense of how to deal with people.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
The lunar eclipse makes it easier to interact with others and express thoughts, feelings and desires without having to weigh up your words. Also, your timing will be spot on and a breakthrough could unexpectedly occur.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
There is safety in numbers today, especially when you are seeking solutions or attempting to make important decisions. Run your ideas past people you trust and go with the majority vote rather than branching out alone.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
The lunar eclipse in your sign brings you full circle. An idea, venture or relationship initiated earlier this year could finally bring a payoff and a glimpse will be provided of the good things that lie ahead.

YOUR DAY
Today's lunar eclipse in Pisces could deliver liberating news for some and healing gestures for others. Problems that have existed for months are likely to climax, allowing many to move with on their lives in a happier frame of mind. Finally, intuitive thoughts and feelings should not be ignored.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You will walk side-by-side with someone you care deeply about or who is attuned to your thoughts and needs. Relationships figure strongly in the year ahead, with one in particular bringing satisfaction and filling a void in your heart or soul.
