KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Whip smart energy makes it easy to assess situations at a glance and think on your feet. No matter how high you currently set your sights, chances are you can reach the top without a glitch.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
You thrive on a job well done and are prepared to devote yourself solely to one task. Situations that others find tedious are right up your ally and because of that, colleagues and family are in awe.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Whether or not you believe your way is right, try being humble. Use honey rather than vinegar to win people over and present your arguments in logical order. Your emotional defences could be up today.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Obstacles can be overcome easily enough but apathy prevents you from trying. Unless you feel strongly about a situation you will be inclined to let it drift until someone else takes care of the problem.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
The temptation to take risks without guaranteed results is strong. But before you make a decision, think about the long-term implications and the effect they might have on your budget. Solutions are not simple today.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Indecision could strike, leaving you with a mental block or backlog of chores. Ironically, the more you agonise over issues the harder they are to resolve. Conversely, if you act impulsively you might well emerge a winner.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Time is on your side, so opt for quality over quantity. You can certainly have a bigger impact on other people's lives by slowing down the pace and giving the best you have to offer. Focus your efforts.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Stand up for your beliefs but avoid arguing over petty points of difference. As long as you believe the devil is in the detail, you will have difficulty seeing the big picture. Choose your battles carefully today.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
If someone tries to emulate your style or success take it as a compliment. But if anyone attempts to steal an idea and pass it off as his or her own, you are entitled to lodge an objection.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
A valuable lesson has been learned the hard way but is now imprinted on your mind. As a consequence, you are loath to revisit old arguments or give someone who betrayed you a second chance.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
If you feel a metaphorical itch, scratch it. Your mood might be risk-averse but suppressing natural instincts is an unhealthy way to go. You might also reconsider your tough stance towards a friend or relative.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
You are prepared to tweak a plan before implementing it but remain averse to wholesale change. Fortunately this is a dynamic life cycle and you can confidently do things your way until Mars leaves your sign mid-month.
YOUR DAY
The higher people aim today the more progress they make. And rather than rating the importance of issues, it would be wise to regard each situation as having equal significance. Hard-nosed decisions can be made with confidence but protocol must be followed.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Your determination cannot be undervalued during this ambitious period. Primarily you are looking to build firm foundations for the future but there is also a deep desire for recognition and reward. You might even view relationships as blue-chip investments.
