ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Soul-searching followed by a fresh start puts you on course for a much happier month ahead. You may suddenly find the answers to a relationship problem, or you will welcome a loved one back into the fold.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
There may be extra demands made on your time, but the new Moon urges you to stand up and be counted. The energy is highly compatible and you can easily overcome obstacles that previously held you back.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
There could be discussions around money, particularly if you feel a family member is being wasteful or not pulling their weight. A new Moon in your financial sector encourages you to plan carefully and tighten the purse strings.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your annual new Moon holds the key to an urgent problem and urges you to resolve it. Whether you are at odds with your partner, a friend or a colleague, now is the time to air your differences.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
With the focus on the introspective section of your chart, changes are likely to be internal rather than external. Some of you may revise your philosophy or techniques, while others examine their behaviour towards other people.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
The combination of caring planets and a new Moon emphasises your chance for success and helps allay your fears. Now is a good time to seek support for a venture or push for a promotion at work.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You must bite the bullet and make a life-changing decision about your future. As you complete the transition from one phase to the next, there may be some tricky moments before events unfold in your favour.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
If the grass looks greener on the other side, perhaps you should think about making a change. The new Moon encourages you to take a leap of faith and promises you will be rewarded for your courage.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Your strength lies in the ability to trust others and have faith in yourself. However, there could be a negative tendency today for you to look for ulterior motives and make excuses rather than take chances.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
If you are a typical Capricorn, you will be the leader others look when a situation spins out of control. And despite self-doubt creeping in occasionally, you will achieve at least one admirable achievement this week.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
You may truly believe you know what is best for everyone, but the new Moon says differently. This is a period of self-discovery and the first thing you will learn is that tolerance and compromise are keys to success.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Tap into your own wealth of talent and rely less on input or approval from others. With a new Moon in compatible Cancer you will unearth hidden talents and strengths on your road to a successful month.

YOUR DAY
Today's new Moon focuses attention on family issues, personal integrity and affairs of the heart. This is the best time all month to make a fresh start in one of these areas, but first you must honestly admit your own shortcomings and make the necessary adjustments. The stars are sensitive, sympathetic and secretive, but there is also an underlying inner strength.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You will make a good impression on people you meet this year and current relationships are likely to move to new levels of intimacy. Also, children or the young at heart will be a source of joy and you may find yourself playing the role of protector to someone vulnerable.
