KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
The new Moon brings fresh incentive and you pick up causes once considered lost. Your view of the world also changes and you happily admit where you went wrong while taking credit for what you did right.

TAURUS: (April 21
to May 21)
Engage in a little reverie this weekend. The lunar energy begins to flow more freely and while today you might hit dead-ends, tomorrow is perfect for beginning any type of activity that is new to you.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Recent pressures ease as gentler, more compatible energy surrounds you. Mundane matters can finally be cast aside and more interesting or artistic pastimes taken up. Your talent sets you apart from most others this weekend.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
You are sometimes astute and occasionally moody. But with your ruler the Moon revving up for another month-long cycle, you are primed for action. Those problems or projects sitting in the too-hard basket can be resurrected.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
The new Moon falls in your romance sector. And while you might not set the world on fire, affairs of the heart do take a turn for the better. Even aloof people seem attractive in a contrary kind of way.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Those points of difference can be argued out today. The fresh lunar energy helps you see the finer points and you think logically rather than letting emotion carry you away. You might also consider de-cluttering your environment.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
The new Moon hits your social zone and you are up for a party. At the very least, a tempting treat lowers your resistance. Raise the bar of expectationin relationships and show off your charming side.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
If someone is keeping you guessing, perhaps the time has come to step off the treadmill. A new Moon offers you a chance to cut and run but does not suggest that it will be easy for you.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Your intensity levels drop and life suddenly seems more enjoyable. If the opportunity presents itself, try mixing with a different group of people or taking up a new hobby. But whatever you do, adopt a gentle pace.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Money might be spent in diverse but interesting ways. And while you are not usually comfortable with impulse buying, a little bit of what you fancy does you good. Fresh lunar energy dares you to be different.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Your annual new Moon compels you to review the recent past and formulate plans for the immediate future. This is your yearly opportunity to clear away the emotional dead wood and start afresh in relationships.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
While you chip away at the barriers between you and a loved one, tensions suddenly start to ease. You have a more positive mind-set about situations this weekend and are determined to change the status quo.

SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
A new Moon in Aquarius promotes freedom of thought and humanitarian causes. And while charity might not begin at home today, people will benefit from the altruism generated by this fresh lunar cycle. Finally with everyone wanting the last word, reaching consensus could be impossible.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Whenever you are faced with adversity, you come out talking. Nobody can twist logic quite like you but more often than not others pick up on your sincerity. Use this year's clever and intuitive energy to pick and choose all the right options.

SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
A sense of picking up where you left off does not diminish the freshness. Instead renewed enthusiasm for life spurs people on to improve past performances. There might be some unnecessarily wordy arguments put forward but all in good fun and fair spirit.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
If last year you felt all at sea, 2007 sees you navigating waters more smoothly. You appear to have more time at your disposal and while this impression is false, it allows you to savour each experience before moving on to the next.
