ARIES

March 21-April 19

A significant planetary change is likely to pave the way for a whole new attitude when it comes to fitness and health. It's out with the fries and sodas, and in with the greens and mineral water. There is a happy medium, Aries: don't be too hard on yourself. A little of what you fancy won't hurt!

TAURUS

April 20-May 20

Today's planetary changes should be regarded in the long term, rather than the short term. Consider taking up new creative and artistic pursuits, because further down the line you're likely to enjoy a moment of success. Don't let the lack of immediate results put you off from taking the plunge!

GEMINI

May 21-June 20

Home matters are likely to bubble up today. Outstanding chores or DIY projects that need doing should be dealt with before you start any new ones! Untidy or uncluttered rooms should be cleared before you begin redecorating. Don't ignore the necessary, but boring groundwork!

CANCER

June 21-July 22

Communications are about to tighten up and become highly efficient, thanks to planetary shifts. A new no-nonsense attitude will make short work of any minor problem, but beware of speaking your mind too bluntly today; sometimes people need the truth delivered to them in a gentle way!

LEO

July 23-Aug. 22

The planets emphasize efficiency, routine and order. What this means for you is a financial overhaul; strict budgets and inflexible saving-plans may become more important from today; the notion of saving for that rainy day may provide security, but like Aries, don't dismiss the thought of an occasional treat!

VIRGO

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

It's likely to be one of those days where you actually end up achieving less than you planned. Obstructive influences combine with a noticeable planetary shift to create all kinds of distractions: perhaps you'll feel that someone needs your help, but maybe you'll need to just step back!

LIBRA

Sept. 23-Oct. 22

It is not likely to be the greatest day of the week; planetary aspects and transits conspire to muddle matters and cloud issues. It could be that you'll look for the answer in the wrong place, or that you'll direct your attention in the wrong place! Focus is what is needed today!

SCORPIO

Oct. 23-Nov. 21

Friendships are about to become a little more intense, thanks to crucial planetary shifts. Changes to your group or a new face on the scene could create some ripples: perhaps you'll react quite strongly to this change, but the planets suggest that you avoid snap judgments!

SAGITTARIUS

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

Oh dear; today's planets not only continue yesterday's minor complacent approach, but they actually strengthen it. A string of negative influences and the planetary changes may have you trying to dump your workload onto others. Try to avoid this, Sagittarius, because as a strategy it will fail!

CAPRICORN

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

Today's planetary transits are likely to get you thinking hard. It may be a case of going back to the drawing board, but if so, there should be a renewed sense of vigor and optimism. Self development, self-improvement and the deeper things in life are what will motivate you!

AQUARIUS

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

Normally your intuition is on top form, but today it's not likely to provide much guidance. Because your head will be in the clouds a little, you're not so likely to recognize the moment where someone could do with a helping hand. Open communications will minimize the mixed-signals syndrome!

PISCES

Feb. 19-March 20

It's likely to be a challenging day: a string of clumsy influences and the planetary shifts will place pressure on your relationships in general. A thoughtless moment on your part could be the catalyst; it is wise to count to ten before speaking, and it would be prudent to keep strong opinions to yourself!
