KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Act on impulse provided it is safe and appropriate. Venus strikes the right note for your sign and it is worth taking a risk for the buzz of excitement. The thrill of the chase appeals all weekend.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
A never say die attitude sustains you this weekend. In refusing to give up on a task or person, you show the grit that sets you apart from others. Playing parent or mentor is also your forte.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Ambitions bite as your uniqueness propels you into prominence. People become more aware of your creativity and communication skills, gravitating towards you in social situations. Just be wary of embellishing the truth to augment your chances.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23) Fortune favours the brave. Whichever way the odds fall this weekend, you are encouraged to risk failure for the prospect of success. Moon in the money zone suggests a fondness for life's little luxuries.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23) If a loved one appears detached, try not to take it personally. Relationships are less intense but the Moon makes you more self-absorbed. Take the focus off yourself and ask what you can do for others.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23) Ruling Mercury acts as your ally this weekend. Its positive influence allows you to express thoughts succinctly and make practical decisions without having to mull them over. The end result could be much higher productivity levels.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Your knack for brightening up the lives of others makes you rather unique. It also allows you get away with things that might normally attract criticism. Turn the smiles on but refrain from seeking too many favours.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22) If a situation is not working out, alter your tactics or get out. Overcome a reluctance to let go and accept that change is not necessarily a bad thing at this stage. The immediate future holds new opportunities.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22) An emotional trade-off helps keep the peace. And while you might not get everything you want, there will be some allowances made in your favour. The key to successful negotiations is thinking outside the square.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20) Even as part of a crowd you feel something is missing. Try to put your finger on what it is you need from others and then work towards fulfilling those desires. Avoid manipulation but use gentle persuasion.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19) Warm feelings wash over you this weekend. Not only is your popularity on the rise but you also have the benefit of Jupiter, the planet of largesse, at a friendly angle. Bighearted people gravitate towards you.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20) Be wary of taking on too much and using up all your reserves of energy. Nutrition, fitness and emotional wellbeing are top of the agenda this weekend and a dose of self-discipline would also be timely.

SATURDAY YOUR DAY
Cutting back on commitments is the wisest course of action. Quality is more important than quality today and each event or interaction should be savoured. Moon in Leo is fortunate to the extent that it engenders a generosity of spirit and a renewed sense of optimism.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Heed your inner voice and be aware of what makes you tick. In 2007 the tempo is slower and time spent nurturing your own needs will be beneficial. Self-help courses or books might provide further insights, while positive people help keep you afloat.

SUNDAY YOUR DAY
Attention-seekers steal the limelight but at the same time they keep unassuming types amused. There is naivety in the planets that allays people's suspicions. And while it isn't a big stretch to suggest certain antics are extremely childish, live and let live is today's motto.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
Life settles into a more stable pattern and you happily forgo a few pleasures for the good of everyone. Matters of the heart bring out your practical side. And while there might be some travel or change, by and large you are happiest at home.
