ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A tendency to go to extremes or see situations as black and white could be your undoing this week. The planets point towards a lack of boundaries and suggest you take your cue from someone sensible.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
There may be plenty going on inside your head, but that will not necessarily translate into productive outcomes. Write down thoughts as they come to mind and set yourself a strict agenda from which to work.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
If you are asked for an opinion, try your best to be fair and impartial. The planetary patterns suggest that a little objectivity will go a long way to success in today's negotiations and relationships.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your initial excitement about a proposal may wane once you examine it more closely. You may be keen to seize on an opportunity, but should be aware of hidden pitfalls and the domino effect on your life.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Show your appreciation in tangible ways rather than taking love and loyalty for granted. There is a danger you will expect others to read your mind or make personal sacrifices above and beyond the call of duty.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Rather than sticking rigidly to the rules or following strict protocol, relax and go for the informal approach. The lunar energy encourages you to break with tradition and take risks you might normally shy away from.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Someone who has been out of contact may be back in touch prompting you to pause and reflect on the past you once shared. The planetary patterns could unleash suppressed thoughts or hidden desires and desires today.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Someone may be playing games with your heart or mind, but you will have a wonderful ability to spot the fakes and judge right from wrong. Draw on your innate sixth sense when summing up situations.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
The Moon will soon shift signs, allowing your emotions to settle and happiness to bubble to the surface. As you begin to see situations in a more optimistic light, you will also have greater tolerance towards others.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
There may be more comings and goings at home or work, but the change of pace will be refreshing rather than tiring. Someone you encounter today may have a soothing effect on your emotions or general disposition.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Communicate through actions rather than words and your message will have a much greater impact. Quiet strength and generosity of spirit are the two qualities that will make you a standout and give you the edge.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
There may be a defining moment when you suddenly see the truth about
yourself or a situation. This will help you put old grievances to rest and move ahead in a more positive frame of mind.

YOUR DAY
Desperation may drive some people to make silly choices or use dubious tactics. There are both an ambiguous and insincere elements in the stars, and extra scrutiny is needed to avoid being taken in. Today's positive aspects include flexibility, ingenuity and ability to fine-tune plans that failed the first time around. Also, barriers that have been put in relationships can be broken down.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You may be tempted to jump on the bandwagon, but will quickly become bored by what initially caught your attention. The secret to success in the next twelve months is to adopt a steady-as-she-goes approach to life. If you must experiment, run your ideas or plans past someone you trust first.
