KEY POINTS:
ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Those in your regular circle overlook clumsy comments but outsiders are not so forgiving. Keep the peace by showing sensitivity and confining discussions to inoffensive topics. There is a time and place for everything.
TAURUS: (April
21 to May 21)
You tend to approach issues by stealth to avoid confrontation. With the free-spirited planet Jupiter nudging you along, happiness comes from striking out alone in new fields of endeavour. Leave routine behind during the holiday period.
GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Holding grudges is counter-productive. This is the perfect time to practice forgiveness and show maturity in the face of family adversity. Moon in the material sector grants permission to spoil yourself and your loved ones.
CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Loved ones reward you in surprising ways. And with lucky Jupiter now in your relationship sector, the people you encounter during this festive phase all have something positive to offer. The emotional tide has definitely turned.
LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Because you expect less, disappointments are fewer. With ruling Sun in Capricorn you allow events to unfold naturally and take others at face value. Not only does this make you more popular but it also yields surprises.
VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
At a time when opposites attract you gravitate towards people who can teach you new tricks. Likewise others feed off your knowledge and relationships are more easily forged. Your skewed world suddenly rights itself.
LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Despite good intentions plans could easily go awry. Be prepared to make small concessions or sacrifices, bearing in mind that you have time on your side. Revised tactics might just suit you better in the long run.
SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
With people trying to create good first impressions, you hold the upper hand. Feel flattered by the attention but resist any urge to abuse your powers. Socially you are the go-to person when others run short of ideas.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Destiny pulls you in a certain direction, so give in rather than putting up resistance. Any attempt to control situations could prove a waste of time and effort. Live in the present and let the future unfurl naturally.
CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
While passion is an important factor in relationships, it is the mind connection that binds you. With Mercury the communicator in your sign, words flow more freely and telepathic links allow you to second-guess loved ones.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Rather than trying to resolve issues single-handedly, share problems with a loved one. A misguided desire for privacy could drive a wedge between you and others but revealing secrets helps establish trust in relationships.
PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
A sense of completion helps the transition from old to new flow easier. You are being given a glimpse of what is to come and hints on how to make a difference. Take up the challenge right away.
YOUR DAY
Shyness is endearing and in no way mars social ability. Grant others some freedom or privacy today and take the same liberty when life seems overwhelming. There is currently a good planetary balance between independence and reliance.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
Jupiter, the planet of luck and big ideas, is now in your sign. Life seems breezier and breakthroughs occur at random, making you the person most likely to succeed in the months ahead. Go for broke.
