Weekend, 12 & 13 November 2005

ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
Your short-range view of an issue may lead to an error in judgement.  Be wary of making promises you cannot keep and double check facts before passing on information.  You should also make rational rather than emotional decisions. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
Self-doubt or fear of failure may have held you back in the past or impeded progress.  However, you are now in a cycle of good fortune and may soon take up a daunting challenge without second thoughts. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
Your thoughts and actions may be ego-driven, but you will gather plenty of support along the way.  Others are likely to admire your ability to lead from the front and turn ideas into practical reality. 

CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)
A little foresight and consistency will put you back on track after a recent lapse in judgement.  Also, if you are prepared to share feelings and information with loved ones, life will be more harmonious. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
Your desire to break free from a situation may be strong, but you will probably lack the courage needed to make any drastic moves.  You are more likely to fine-tune a relationship or responsibility and persevere. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
You will happily accept responsibility provided there is some sort of tangible reward in it at the end.  And while the planets render you productive, they also make you more impulsive and could cause an emotional boil over. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Provided you mix with people who have your best interests at heart, you will find relative peace this weekend.  You should also try to sidestep sensitive subjects or situations that stir up deep-seated and negative emotions. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Although you may be tempted to walk on the wild side, the conservative part of your personality will keep your emotions in check.  Some of you may test the waters by saying or doing something mildly shocking. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
At best you will inspire others with your enthusiasm for life.  At worst, your attitude may be considered belligerent.  Find the right balance this weekend and your leadership skills will earn the respect you richly deserve. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
Past loyalty and devotion to someone is likely to be rewarded in a surprising way.  There may be times this weekend when your ego receives a boost and times when you feel inspired to try harder. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)
Take time to focus on important family issues and find solutions to personal problems.  Some of you have insisted on turning a blind eye to someone's antics, while others have tended to over-react when confronted with issues. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
Channel your thoughts and energy into creative pastimes, and avoid taking yourself too seriously.  The planets suggest the best way to handle difficult people and situations is through light-hearted banter and wry sense of humour.

SATURDAY

YOUR DAY
Moon in fiery Aries lifts the tempo and could cause people to go extremes in order to achieve their aims.  Try to moderate passion and behaviour, especially in risky situations or important relationships. Those who can find the middle ground in arguments and who make choices carefully will be the biggest winners today.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Exploit your talents and opportunities to the full, as there may be no second chances in the months ahead.  If necessary, take a leap of faith and remember that you have an element of luck on your side in 2006 that will probably get you over the line.   

SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
An honest and up-front approach will work best today.  Moon and Mercury in candid signs encourage openness, but at the same time warn against being blunt in the company of sensitive people.  Most can safely experiment with new ideas and broaden their horizons, especially if drawn towards experiences that have long held appeal.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Honest toil will bring the greatest rewards, but first you must decide whether youwant something enough to make personal sacrifices. Choose your goals and battles carefully in 2006, or you may end up squandering money, time or physical and emotional energy.  Keep active and remain independent.
