KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
When tempted by taboo issues, heed your conscience. High ideals prevent you from making unethical decisions and keep you on the straight and narrow path today. Put your energy into fun or family pastimes.
TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Hard-to-please people keep you honest. Because loyalty is at the core of your nature, you give others what they want and expect nothing in return. Moon in your sign keeps you attuned to your immediate environment.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Keep in touch with events and people or control could slip away. The secret is to think in practical terms without stifling your imagination or sense of humour. Cover all your bases and leave nothing to chance.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
An unexpected break could be the catalyst for personal change. Get out and about to maximise your chances, bearing in mind that luck is partially your own creation. You have a deft touch with people today.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Stick to what you know best. Moving outside your usual parameters could create confusion and besides, life is sweeter when it's shared with people you love. Tried and true methods suit today's star patterns.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
What began as a low-key affair looks like it might snowball. The planets indicate a flurry of activity but imply you feel excited rather than overwhelmed. Let loose some of your creative and financial aspirations.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
There is safety in numbers and it makes no sense to shoulder all the responsibility. You can be sneaky today without being dishonest and that way everyone is happy. Blend into the crowd wherever possible.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
Your demeanour is less menacing and others find you more approachable. Harmonious energy from Venus sees you shedding inhibitions and taking charge of social situations. Kindness comes back to you twofold at this time.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Despite recent attempts to dampen your enthusiasm, you manage to remain upbeat. Natural optimism acts as a barrier between you and negative people, so keep that thought in mind whenever doubts start creeping in.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Positive emotional energy keeps relationships on an even keel. Coming from a position of quiet strength, you happily engage with people from all walks of life. In return, affection flows back and the circle is complete.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
The expectations of others can weigh heavily. It takes practice to deal with the varying demands but your saving grace is an ability to emotionally detach yourself. Do not allow guilt to dictate all your actions.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
A sudden about face changes the truth of a situation. You go from perceiving a person or situation negatively to viewing things in a more positive light. Some of the magic returns to your life and relationships.
YOUR DAY
Take care of practicalities today. There is a danger ambition could exceed realism and you bite off more than you can chew. Because the tempo is slower, an order of priority must be created and adhered to.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Goal setting makes sense as you enter this restless period. Without direction, energies might be scattered to the wind and little will be achieved. Separate need from desire and tackle one challenge at a time.
