KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Play the waiting game a little longer and your patience will be rewarded. An area of life is due for a shake up and next week's eclipse could bring the breakthrough you crave. Meanwhile, indulge your own needs.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Use your charitable instincts kick in and you set about cheering up people who feel unloved or isolated. You cannot underestimate the difference you make by going out of your way to help the less fortunate.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
People who meddle in your affairs mean well but push the limits. Gently lay down the law and be firm about what the invasion of privacy means to you. Look for the good rather than the bad.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your quest towards self-improvement continues and happiness is about being comfortable in your own skin. You have come a long way since last year's setback and progress is reflected in your work, relationships and poise.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Factor distractions into your schedule and try to be flexible. Intense lunar power raises your hackles and there is nothing free flowing about the way situations pan out today. Tap into your inner reserves of energy.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
When you mix with dramatic people you take on their characteristics. And while it might be exciting for a while, it soon becomes tiresome. The middle ground is the safest position for you today.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
The more someone attempts to bait you, the less inclined you are to react. People tend to think of you are pliable but underestimate your ability to get what you want. Stick to your guns.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Moon at the apex of your horoscope intensifies your sense of purpose. You march blithely towards a goal and step over anyone who gets in your way. You are steely-minded at best and stubborn at worst.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Normally you are difficult to annoy but a hair-trigger temper engulfs you today. You can either remove yourself from potentially stressful situations, or take a deep breath and hope that you quickly calm down.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Almost at an intersection in life, you ponder what is meaningful and what is irrelevant. Now is not the perfect time to change the status quo, but in a little while decisions need to be made.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Attend to matters personally and a clearer picture emerges. You know immediately what is required or where you stand and this eliminates the need to engage in lengthy discussions with others. Guard your independence fiercely.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Objectivity is the key to successful negotiations. That way everyone's needs and requirements are met, and emotion is taken out of the equation. Make an occasion out of normally informal gatherings but keep it intimate.
YOUR DAY
Being seen to be doing the right thing is close enough. Style prevails over substance today and actual achievement is not the end goal. There might be a rush for the top as status-seekers employ ruthless tactics in order to trounce their weaker opponents.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Respect, reliability and refuge are what you seek. And to achieve these aims, you must believe in yourself and others. Fight for your principles in the year ahead and keep that ultimate goal at the forefront of your mind. Destiny is self-created.
