ARIES

March 21-April 19

With Venus's transit into Capricorn comes another shift in your outlook: it will seem more important how people regard you and you'll be keen to be seen in the best possible light. Specifically today, that could result in you trying too hard, and taking on too much for someone's approval!

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

Your ruling planet, Venus, shifts into Capricorn today, which bodes extremely well for new interests; and for the ambitious Taurean, now is the time to start planning your next career move. The enduring aspect from Chiron, however, suggests that a friend's take on your plans should be ignored!

GEMINI

May 21-June 20

The transit of Venus bodes extremely well for your love-life, Gemini, because it will have a very settling effect. You'll know what you want, and crucially, you'll know what you don't want. Specifically today, though, someone wants to offer a helping hand: let them!

CANCER

June 21-July 22

Your horoscope is almost the reverse of Gemini's, thanks to Venus moving into your seventh house. For the next few weeks you're likely to blow hot and cold over a romantic matter. Second thoughts, cold feet, and keeping your options open will make you seem quite dithery and indecisive!

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

An image change in the form of new clothes or a new hairstyle is definitely in the stars from today. Venus will have you wanting to look your absolute best, especially if there is a romantic interest on the near horizon, while attached Leos will be able to prove that old saying: a change is as good as a holiday!

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

The focus will swing back to creativity and artistic avenues today, thanks to the transit of Venus into fellow earth sign Capricorn. Explore all the possibilities; take up an activity that will play to your strengths, because there's more than a hint that a little money could be made out of this!

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Your ruling planet, Venus, which represents beauty and harmony, moves into your fourth house, which represents the home. Don't get out the paint brushes yet: look to introducing a little harmony from within. Observing the principles of Feng Shui will establish the harmony you want!

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

Venus moves into your communications house, and thanks to the wonderful Venus/Pluto aspect you'll be positively brimming with charisma. Take advantage of this aspect while it lasts: if there's something you want, or even someone you want, you'll be able to claim it with ease!

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

The transit of Venus into Capricorn will impact mainly on cash matters. You are likely to spend your hard earned cash on things that take your fancy, but you are likely to be far more discriminate in your style and taste. A very beneficial aspect also hints at a moment of good luck today!

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

Venus moving into your sign is going to bring out all your good qualities. Read Scorpio's horoscope to get a flavor of the benefits, and promise yourself that you won't waste the excellent energies buzzing around! Today there is the definite possibility of travel or discovery!

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

Don't be too surprised if you find that you seem to be more aware than those around you. The transit of Venus into Capricorn indicates that you'll tend to recognize situations long before anyone else, and that your levels of insight will exceed anyone else's. A revelation today is likely to offer a pleasant surprise!

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

As Venus moves into Capricorn, so your feelings for a friend of the opposite sex might become a little muddled. Don't act on those feelings yet: there are more changes on the way. Focus on friendships rather than daydreaming about possible romances. A piece of malachite will ground you today!
