KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A supportive family and familiar environment is vital for your welfare. The sensitive Moon triggers episodes of insecurity and shyness for your sign; hence you would be wise to stick close to home for a couple of days.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Mixing things up a little restores enthusiasm. Add variety to your routine and relationships, or change your image in some small way. Your usual wait-and-see approach is inappropriate at this point in time.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Direct energies towards material matters. Where possible, bargain people down and strike a better deal for yourself in order to save money. Your creature comforts might be more important than usual and leisure time soothes the soul.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
When others get too close your instinct is to back away. But with Moon in your sign the energy is tactile and you welcome intimacy with loved ones. You willpower might be depleted, but emotions are strong.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
After being lulled into a false sense of security, you could be caught napping. Active planets prompt a renewed sense of urgency and as a deadline looms, you scurry back into action. Consider cutting back on commitments.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
You pull your weight with a minimum amount of fuss and effort. However unassuming you appear to others, you are driven and unafraid of getting your hands dirty. Results could ultimately exceed your expectations.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Despite being out of tune with certain people, you carry on regardless. One of your initiatives is a winner and once you a firm decision is made, others will quickly come on board. Creative ideas are your specialty.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
An aspect of someone's personality intrigues you. And as you begin to see this person in a new light, the relationship will quickly gather steam. As the result of current events, your ego and esteem are boosted.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
If you have a point to prove use subtle means to convey it. The sledgehammer approach is unsuitable and the harder you push others, the more likely they are to rebel. Take tiny steps forward today.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Something begins or ends abruptly and takes you by surprise. But despite the temporary confusion, outcomes actually work in your favour today. Mars is leading you in the right direction and providing a strong sense of purpose.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Cajoling people is out of character but it is also the key to compliance. Take control of situations in a low-key manner and remember that a little flattery will go a long way towards achieving goals.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Be specific about what you want rather than couching requests in diplomatic dialogue. There is potential for misunderstanding but if you spell out your needs carefully messages cannot be lost in translation. Good intuition also helps.
YOUR DAY
The blame game could be used to deflect responsibility. Those caught up in political situations should make a conscious choice to fence-sit. Others who take issues personally might cope better by turning their backs on trouble. Out of sight is out of mind today.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Adversity brings out the best in you. Challenging situations stir you into action and a sense of achievement follows every successful outcome. Consolidate assets, ideas and ambitions so that you have a focus to aim for all year. And keep relationships steady.
