ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
A desire to raise your profile or lift intensity levels in a relationship comes courtesy of passionate planets.  Temptation may be placed in your path and you will be drawn towards people with lusty natures who love life. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
The lunar energy affects romantic and business alliances, putting the emphasis on co-operation rather than conflict.  It may be time to draw up new guidelines or work towards greater equality within the context of a partnership. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
Others may think you are asking too much when you attempt to enlist support for selfish reasons.  A tendency to put your own needs first or make unreasonable demands could damage your popularity or reputation.  Take heed. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
Someone who makes their presence felt will either steal your thunder or motivate you to be a better person.  The best strategy is to set your sights high and believe that you can make a difference. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
If you have been plagued by family problems, self-doubt or feelings of boredom, enlightenment could come from an unexpected source.  Take all the help you can and be shrewd enough to cash in on opportunities. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
You could be inclined to exaggerate your own importance and make light of significant issues.  Mixed influences are both emotional and laid-back, and success lies in knowing when to speak out and when to listen carefully. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
You may feel a need to assert your authority at home or work, especially if others have been paying scant attention to your opinions.  Changing circumstances could see you carving a new niche for yourself soon. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Sun in your sign provides an uncanny sixth sense and puts you one step ahead of others when making decisions or choices.  Things should slot into place easily and a sense of optimism is likely to prevail. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
Make sure you have all the pertinent facts at hand before you take the next important step in a venture.  You may be seduced by a person or idea and will believe the grass is greener elsewhere. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
If you wish to resolve an ongoing issue, tackle it head-on now and reap the benefits next year.  A recent tendency to bury your head in the sand may have caused you to lose the upper hand. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
You may feel as if you are taking one step forward and two back, but will persist until a chosen goal is reached.  Your biggest source of satisfaction is likely to be platonic relationships or favoured pastimes. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
A lack of flexibility could work against you, so relax and be prepared to change plans.  Someone who is playful or positive may make a spontaneous suggestion and it appears you have nothing to lose by accepting.

YOUR DAY
People may be unforgiving and harmony hard to achieve. Avoid confrontation and be prepared to compromise on points of difference
rather than browbeating others. You should also enjoy those precious moments that are so simplistic they can be easily overlooked or
underestimated. Bear in mind memories are often created at unexpected times.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but as you reflect on the year so far you may see glaring mistakes. Rather than dwelling on what might
have been, focus your efforts on doing a better job second time around. It appears you will be given a golden opportunity to redeem
yourself.
