ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Look at both sides of a contentious issue before making comment or deciding which way to lean. You may be inadvertently drawn into an argument that places you in a difficult position at home or work.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
The focus shifts on to material comfort, money, and pleasure. Rather than feeling decadent about spending or indulging, you will happily reward yourself after months or hard work or difficulty. A relationship takes a turn for the better.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Others may deem some of your actions selfish, but you will simply be following your heart. People who are quick to judge should be kept at arm's length today and emotional arguments avoided at all costs.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Whatever you put into life determines what you get out. Hence, you must cast aside suspicions, feelings of jealousy or resentment, and fear of failure, and then attempt to see the best in both yourself and others.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Overtures from someone you admire or like may be difficult to resist. Just think carefully about love and devotion before engaging in a flirtation or shifting loyalties. A sibling, friend or colleague offers good advice.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Your sign does not usually resort to game playing, but a current situation may require a change of tactics. Bear in mind that a little harmless manipulation or white lie will not damage your reputation or relationships.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You may be going around in circles, but will refuse to quit until a resolution is reached. Yours is a clever sign and even though you sometimes make life difficult for yourself, you usually achieve your aims.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Rather than keeping people guessing, clear up any confusion as soon it arises. You could be inclined towards secrecy today and your covert actions might arouse suspicion or scepticism in others. Think on your feet.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Yours is normally a positive sign, but this week you may be hesitant and apt to hedge your bets. Not only will you have difficulty taking sides, but you may also have trouble making simple decisions.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Because energy levels may fluctuate, you should avoid putting too much pressure on yourself to perform. Your greatest gift is a willingness to help, so focus on being of service to the needy people around you.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
An idea that was born out of necessity several months ago can now be put into action. It may be difficult to get people involved, but with patience on your part they will eventually see the light.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Work on achieving harmony in your private life or beautifying your surroundings. Material comfort and personal happiness will be high on your list of priorities, and tedious tasks can be put on the back burner.

YOUR DAY
There is some duality and indecisiveness in the planetary patterns, so it is important to form your own opinions and reach your own conclusions. What others say and what they mean could be two different things today. To avoid regret or confusion, act independently and always keep at least one ace up your sleeve. Charm will win out over browbeating or power playing every time.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You may feel financial or person security is an issue, or you will be keen to tie someone down to a commitment. Just remember that you cannot control every situation and must allow people to follow their own path. Separate need from desire and you cannot go wrong.
