Friday, October 13

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Your biggest problem today will be keeping everyone happy. If someone attempts to point the finger of blame at you or makes unreasonable demands on your time, be firm but kind and diplomatic with them.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Experience could come in handy when your opinion or counsel is sought. You may not have all the answers, but Moon in your conversational zone gives you the gift of words and a lesson in play-acting.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Rather than placing yourself at the mercy of other people, make your escape. This is the time indulge yourself and exercise free will rather than playing nursemaid to needy loved ones. Be sure to sneak away quietly.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your soft spot for someone could see you relaxing the rules and setting double standards. And no matter how hard you try to treat everyone as equal, your heart is likely to rule your head today.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
A tendency to suppress your feelings could cause resentment or minor health problems. Stop thinking about the impact your words may have on others and speak from the heart on those issues you care about.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Moon in your lenient zone helps you see both sides of situations and tolerate difficult people. There may also be a well-timed offer of help from a person who has power, influence or a fondness for you.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
You may have to suspend belief to get your mind around an issue. Life has surprises in store and you must think creatively and step outside your comfort zone when an idea or proposal is put forward.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
The planets encourage you to speak up, but advise against using heavy-handed tactics. Others are likely to understand what you mean without you having to hammer the point home. Be gentle but firm with people today.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
You may be inquisitive and yet reluctant to reveal your own thoughts. However without give and take in relationships today the best you can expect is tolerance and at worst you will be given the cold shoulder.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Rather than worrying about situations outside your sphere of influence or control, focus energy on the here and now. Results will eventually fall into place and in the meantime all you can do is keep the faith.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
The planetary subtext suggests a fundamental problem is being ignored. Search your soul for areas of hurt or discontent and despite a fear of change, set about resolving issues. For once your heart must overrule your head.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Armed with new information and perhaps an improved attitude, you can re-launch a venture that failed the first time around. Moon in compatible Cancer is a strong indicator that things will now go your way.

YOUR DAY
Moon in the watery sign of Cancer engenders instinctive rather than premeditated responses. People will be more likely to wear their hearts on their sleeves today and make emotional instead of rational decisions. Also levels of self-esteem will fluctuate and egos may need to be fed.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Success in the year ahead depends equally on self-belief and hard work. You can accomplish anything you desire, providing your levels of commitment and confidence never waver. To earn respect you must ignore the cynics and allow results to speak for themselves.
