ARIES:  (March 21 to April 20)
Something forbidden may tempt you, but stoic stars keep you on the straight and narrow.  Matters of conscience, morality, or protocol could arise and test you in areas that you are either unfamiliar or uncomfortable with. 

TAURUS:  (April 21 to May 21)
Hard-to-please people could cross your path, but your charm and guile will quickly win them over.  Current planetary trends suggest you will be admired by many this week and out of favour with only a few. 

GEMINI:  (May 22 to June 21)
There may be a flurry of activity at home or in the work place and the key is to remain aloof.  Actions and decisions made now are likely to have far-reaching consequences, so keep a cool head. 


CANCER:  (June 22 to July 23)

Your life may be enriched in unexpected ways or through surprise sources.  Someone who has a wealth of experience, love, or advice to offer could be the catalyst for your impending run of good luck. 

LEO:  (July 24 to August 23)
Stick to the tried and true, and avoid questioning the motives of others or assuming your way is best.  You will win more hearts through displays of quiet strength than overbearing behaviour.  Adopt a low profile. 

VIRGO:  (August 24 to September 23)
What starts out as a low-key event or project may snowball and throw your timetable into disarray.  Positive aspects in your zones of communication, expansion, and physical activity, suggest you will cope well with added burdens. 

LIBRA:  (September 24 to October 23)
Plans may be changed through no fault of your own, or you will be forced to rethink a strategy.  Pressure is beginning to build for your sign and despite your desire to please, you will lack motivation and energy. 

SCORPIO:  (October 24 to November 22)
Sun and Mon put the focus firmly on communication and help enrich relationships.  You may find yourself reminiscing about the past, discussing holiday plans, or sharing your hopes and dreams for the future with a loved one. 

SAGITTARIUS:  (November 23 to December 22)
You are uninhibited by nature, yet circumstances seem to have backed you into a corner.  Tap into your creative side and look for ways to break free without hurting your chances or offending other people. 

CAPRICORN:  (December 23 to January 20)
Memories of the past and fantasies about the future will sustain you through the monotonous and tough times.  You may be caught in the middle of a family situation, or a money question will hang over your head. 

AQUARIUS:  (January 21 to February 19)

If you are anxious about an upcoming event or competitive situation, make sure you are well prepared.  Knowledge will be power and the more you learn or practice, the more confident you will grow. 

PISCES:  (February 20 to March 20)
You may know exactly what you want, but working out how to get it will be a challenge.  Concentrate on every aspect of a problem or situation and listen to your heart as well as your head. 


YOUR DAY
It will be easy to become absorbed in the moment and focus intently on the task at hand.  Also a strong sense of duty and responsibility in the stars suggests there will be little time for frivolous pastimes today.  Use this period to plan, manage, take care of details, and look after others.  It is important to tie up any loose ends before the holiday season.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You may feel as if you are skating on thin ice, but will continue to take risks.  The planetary patterns make this an ideal time to follow your instincts and change aspects of your life that are dull, routine, or outdated.  And ruling Saturn makes you wary of a relationship commitment.
