Wednesday, November 1

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
A sudden dose of indecisiveness makes it difficult to take the next step. For reassurance, look to family and friends for advice but wait until the ambiguity lifts before taking action. Colleagues may be vague or elusive.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A sense of optimism drives you to follow a long held dream. It may take months to achieve your goal but once on a roll nothing will stop you. Work independently and make your own decisions.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
There is a fine line between fantasy and reality, making it more important than usual to check your facts. You must also remain on guard against people who may have a hidden agenda or false information.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
As your attitude softens or an opponent surrenders, relationships will seem more promising. There may also be contact soon with an estranged friend or family member who once held a prime place in your heart.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Planets in Scorpio cast a shadow over your personal life. Some of the darker aspects of your personality may surface or you will be forced to face one of your demons. A little soul searching could prove cathartic.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Your reputation receives a timely boost from influential planets.People will gradually sit up and take notice or potential new avenues to success could suddenly open up. Waste no time capitalising on events and opportunities.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Avoid going to extremes, as a win-at-all-costs approach could put even loyal supporters off side. Temper enthusiasm and tone down the rhetoric or risk losing the confidence of colleagues and your own self respect.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
After months of concerted effort you may suddenly make a major breakthrough. And with the planets stacked in your favour, success will quickly follow. This is an excellent time to invest in your emotional and financial future.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
There are secrets around your sign that may take time to uncover and you must be prepared to play the waiting game. Trying to second-guess situations could be counter-productive, but patience will bring its own rewards.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Pull out all stops to finalise a project. The window of opportunity is open, but a sense of urgency is needed to benefit from the lucky break. Focus fully on the task at hand and defer other issues.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
A clear conscience brings benefits yet you are tempted to withhold the truth from someone. And while your intentions are well meaning, trust will be lost in a relationship when the truth eventually comes out.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Yours is a sympathetic sign, but you must be wary of those who drag you down with their problems. Practice detachment, toughen up and avoid people who are negative or have previously exploited your kindness.

YOUR DAY
Moon in Pisces encourages introspection but can prompt negative thoughts. Rather than dwelling on personal problems, engage in open discussion and accept advice from people who are older or wiser. Too much self-talk can be detrimental to a person's physical, mental or emotional health.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Jupiter has given you a second chance or lucky break. Now that your world is steadier or more satisfying, you can coast along in upcoming months. Your new cycle is one of co-operation and joint ventures, with more social and family activities forecast.
