ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
You may be lulled into a false sense of security or will be inclined to put an unusual spin on events.  There is an aura of unreality around your sign, making it almost impossible to see the truth.

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
With little fuss or effort you will pull your weight and pursue ambitions plans.  Your unassuming nature is likely to impress the people around you, but you should learn to take credit where it is due.

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
Although you may be out of tune with certain people, it is a good idea to brainstorm initiatives before making any firm decisions.  You work best in co-operative situations and will feed off the creativity of others.

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
One of your associates may show an intriguing side to his or her personality.  And as you begin to see someone in a new light, it will either boost your own confidence or soften your stance.

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
If you have a point to prove or message to get across, use subtle means rather than the sledgehammer approach.  A tendency to push your ideas and opinions on others could lead to a breakdown in communication.

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
Something may begin or end rather abruptly, taking you by surprise. However, despite the fact your life is thrown into temporary confusion, the outcome will ultimately work in your favour.  Venus points you in the right direction.

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Rather than attempting to charm or flatter people, be honest and upfront in all your dealings.  You will achieve your aims and project a better image by taking control of situations and lowering your expectations.

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Be specific about what you want from others, rather than couching requests in diplomatic terms.  There is potential for misunderstanding and it is important to spell out your needs, particularly to people who are distracted or dreamy.

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
You will thrive in a supportive environment, but may feel out of your depth in unfamiliar situations.  The sensitive Moon could trigger an episode fear, shyness or insecurity and there is wisdom in staying close to home.

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
While you may be tempted to dramatise events or use drastic means to achieve your aims, the planets favour a more measured approach. Avoid people with a puffed up sense of self-importance and align yourself with optimists.

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
Material issues come to the forefront and the message is you must be shrewd to succeed.  Use your analytical powers to assess possible outcomes, strike a better deal for yourself and form an opinion on business associates.

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
If someone gets too close your first instinct may be to back off. Moon in your sign makes you more cautious than usual, yet the desire for intimacy is probably stronger than ever.  Let your guard down.
