KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Moon in your polar opposite sign sees you taking on certain Libran characteristics. These could include bending over backwards to keep the peace, paying more attention to your appearance and graciously welcoming newcomers.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Ideas spring to mind but finding ways to implement them could be difficult. Team up with a partner has the means you lack and take practical advice from someone with a proven track record in finance or planning.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
An issue propels you into prominence and highlights some of your hidden talents. Others might not necessarily hang on your every word but they are probably prepared to listen and give credit where it is due.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
A penchant for sweeping statements could cause people to tune out. Emphasise the message and leave the drama out of your presentation, especially if you are trying to sell an idea. A little bit of mystery helps.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Not every issue can be resolved within a certain time frame. Occasionally you have to play the waiting game but in the long run that makes the end result sweeter and the hard work more worthwhile.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Rather than breaking with routine, follow a familiar path. Life might lack challenge and variety but this is not the right time to make either dramatic or subtle changes. Coast along until for a few more days.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Emotions are close to the surface and you must avoid upsetting situations. Surround yourself with people who have your best interests and avoid those who try to push your buttons in order to get a rise.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
The longer you allow a situation to drift, the harder it will be to let go. Ask yourself what is the worst thing that can happen and work backwards from there. Your fears might prove totally unfounded.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
The impending full Moon brings deeply held convictions to the surface. You might finally confront an issue of conscience and secretly admit that others have compromised your principles in recent months. Set the record straight.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Your intrinsic need to do the right thing draws admiration from others. But now you balance duty with desire by giving yourself permission to feather your own nest. Pour on the charm when dealing with influential people.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
Set yourself challenging goals and give them your best shot. An opportunity exists to improve your standing but to make it happen you must aim high and work tirelessly. In addition, let your imagination run riot.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
While others fuss over seemingly trivial issues, you continue to pick up the slack. Long overdue rewards are just around the corner and the reputation you have worked hard to build will be recognised by authority figures.

YOUR DAY
Petty points of contention might be argued over but in a polite way. Diplomatic solutions allow people to save face and maintain healthy relationships in the process. However, situations brewing on a deeper level need to be addressed within the next few days.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You step out from under mentor's wing and in turn become someone else's protector. Added responsibilities are taken on with ease in the months and making sacrifices for others is considered an honour. A financial boost is forecast later in the year.
