KEY POINTS:

ARIES: (March 21 to April 20)
Accept spontaneous social invitations and engage in relaxing pastimes. Pleasure is firmly on the agenda and mixing with like-minded people will take your mind off trivial issues and help fill an emotional void.

TAURUS: (April 21 to May 21)
Pleasing evidence
that you recently made the right decision is justifiably a source of pride. Just knowing you are on the right track should help raise your spirits and self-esteem, as well as elevate your status.

GEMINI: (May 22 to June 21)
Mercury in the relationship zone changes the nature of communication with loved ones. You may be more verbal, light-hearted or sociable and your love life will take a much-needed turn for the better.

CANCER: (June 22 to July 23)
Your ruler the Moon in sassy Leo could lead to a spike in spending for pleasure or indulgence. An eye for quality, a tendency to flirt and a love of comfort are all current planetary spin-offs.

LEO: (July 24 to August 23)
Moon in your sign ties in nicely with Mercury's movement into the zone of escapism. Your perception is now finely honed and after months of uncertainty, you know exactly which direction to take. Spread your wings.

VIRGO: (August 24 to September 23)
Problems dissipate as people rally round with suggestions and support. Be a good listener and take well-meaning advice on board, even if it goes against the grain. Bear in mind that independence can be overrated.

LIBRA: (September 24 to October 23)
Those who share your interests or ideals help fill a gap in your social life. Affairs of the heart move up a notch, but rather than relying on just on person you should share yourself around.

SCORPIO: (October 24 to November 22)
A complex issue cannot be resolved without analysis and consultation. The challenge this weekend is finding a sympathetic ear or rational adviser to help guide you through. The upside is you have time on your side.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 to December 22)
Mercury entering your sign creates a buzz of excitement. Life will be busier and more exciting, but there is also a sense of homecoming. Take the social initiative and bring people together or arrange a family outing.

CAPRICORN: (December 23 to January 20)
Someone's attitude could cause tension and extra patience is required. You usually feel more comfortable taking control, but this weekend should relinquish some of the decision-making to others. Loved ones need to feel more empowered.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 to February 19)
A change in philosophies or friendships makes you feel more relevant. Life takes on a slightly different slant on life, turning you into the progressive thinker and group participant your sign was born to be.

PISCES: (February 20 to March 20)
Because there is no going back, decisions must be made carefully. Review the history of a situation and gather all relevant information, so that you can calculate approximately what the outcome might be. Progress is slow but steady.

SATURDAY
YOUR DAY
Savvy stars produce slick talkers who can think on the run. Be bold and ambitious today, but remember to exercise the body as well as the mind. Also, conditions are almost perfect for pleasurable pastimes and the chemistry between people may be easier than usual to sense.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
You will have a better run in 2007, as your ruler Jupiter returns to its natural habitat for the year. Follow your dreams and factor in luck into the decision-making process. A breakthrough, purchase, new relationship and travel are all possible highlights.

SUNDAY
YOUR DAY
Sun and Moon in outgoing fire signs set the scene for fun. Push the boundaries without breaking the rules and take what you want without being selfish. This is also a good day to exploit talents and stretch personal potential to the limit. Explore all options.

YOUR BIRTHDAY
A change in the planetary mood prompts you to be more brazen. Perhaps you sense an opportunity to set yourself up for the future, or a lucky break will come via someone you admire. Welcome people into your circle and feed off their enthusiasm.
