ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)

You may be at cross-purposes with someone, but there is nothing to be
gained by confronting people just because they have a different point
of view or technique.  Keep your feet on the ground and work hard. 


TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
Excitement may
begin to build in the lead-up to a special event or
change of circumstances.  If there are odds and ends to tie up, allow
plenty of time rather than leaving everything until the last minute. 
 
GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
Something you lost interest in may be back on the agenda soon.  And
if there is money involved, you can expect to have better results
than last time around.  Your frame of mind is more practical and
determined. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
There will be greater clarity in personal affairs shortly and a
genuine desire to improve your image.  You are about to be liberated
from something or someone that has either held you back or grown
stale. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
A quest for perfection sees you setting high standards, but could
also prove stressful.  Learn to delegate, use technology to lighten
the load or ease up on yourself.  The end results will most likely be
the same. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
As the implications of recent change sink in, you will start to see a
brighter future.  And as your confidence grows, your influence over
others is likely to be more positive and relationships will also
improve. 


LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Arrangements may chop and change, so keep in touch with what is going
on today.  You will be left out of the loop unless you take the
initiative and double-check details with the relevant people. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
You will feel more secure and less anxious about what lies ahead.
Good interaction is forecast in the planets and you will work well in
collaboration with people who bring different skills and resources to
the table. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
People who come from a different background to you may be thrown in
your path.  A new relationship is just what you need to spice up your
life and the more exotic, the happier you will be. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
Unless you have the necessary resources or knowledge at your
fingertips, you will refuse to commit to a venture.  However, finding
the perfect niche for your time and talents should be easier than
usual for most Capricorns. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
Your resolve may weaken and you will give in rather than fight
someone over an issue.  You will also have a knack for choosing your
battles and making insightful judgements about the people you deal
with today. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
A person you admire may show you kindness or impart wisdom.  As a
result, you will make rapid progress with a project that had almost
come to a halt.  Your ability to absorb information is a highlight. 

YOUR DAY
This is a good time to take stock in preparation for a new month-long
solar cycle.  The emphasis is on issues of substance and
responsibility in relationships.  If necessary, set new ground rules
and try harder to finish what you begin rather than falling over at
the first hurdle.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Money matters should not be taken lightly and lessons learned from
past mistakes must be heeded.  This is an excellent cycle for
establishing future security, strengthening relationships and seeking
professional promotion.  Stunning results will come from hard work
and turning clever ideas into productive ventures.
