Aries 21 March - 20 April... Issues can evoke almost instant reactions concerning home and family affairs. If something affects your security or upsets a loved one, you'll respond immediately. While it's a good day to stand up for what matters, sometimes a caring approach can open more doors and bring more help than force or persuasion can. A pause for thought enables you to act with precision.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... Your sector of communication, ideas and local connections is energised, making this a good time to tackle conversations you have postponed for some time. You'll have the courage to stay what needs to be said and perhaps to initiate a positive shift. A sibling or friend might also bring news that sets new plans in motion, or a local event could trigger an opportunity.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... You'll place a lot more faith in your resourcefulness today as a lively lunar link encourages you to use your knowledge, talent and experience to boost your income. You may notice an opportunity hiding in plain sight and be keen to make the most of it. Your instincts can play a big part in your decisions. If something feels right, then it's a very good idea to follow it up.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... As the Moon and Mars link arms in your sign this is the day to take the lead on something that truly matters, rather than waiting for the right moment. Your charisma shines bright and you'll be impossible to ignore even if you're not saying much. Your passion for life can be inspiring but be sure to channel it in a direction that will bring results you'll be happy with.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... It's possible that any progress you make today might happen behind the scenes, where no one will be able to applaud. It's a time to trust those quiet nudges that seem to appear out of nowhere as they may be whispering useful truths. A peaceful walk in nature, a chance to relax while doing something creative or an early night might achieve more than pushing ahead.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... Your kind and caring nature will easily draw supportive people and worthwhile opportunities into your orbit. Projects succeed when everyone feels heard and understood, so resist the urge to organise every detail yourself. A serious idea may impress you even if the discussion is held over a coffee during a casual get-together. The more you share, the more you'll get back.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... As the Moon aligns with Mars in a prominent zone, your caring approach can be a great asset, giving you support when you need it most. You'll also realise that focus and compassion pair well and can be used to your advantage. A professional opportunity could show up through someone who appreciates your diplomacy and reliability. Don't hesitate if so.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... You may be keen to jet off for a short break, especially if you feel like pampering yourself in more soothing surroundings. Conversations with someone from another background could also change your perspective so be prepared for an interesting encounter. Even so, strong emotions could take you on a journey of discovery. A nature walk can be a healing antidote.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... You'll sense that it's time to go deeper to untangle a matter that has been a cause of concern. The Moon-Mars tie in an intense zone is perfect for teasing out those buried issues and bringing them into the light. They may relate to an emotional, financial or business matter, but whatever it is, the chance to see clearly and talk with a trusted confidant can restore peace.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Today's achievements are likely to come through cooperation, whether this relates to love, business or friendship. If there's something that needs to be spoken about, you'll be ready to take charge of the situation and bring it out into the open. Use this chance to clear away lingering misunderstandings. Feel challenged? Putting yourself in their shoes can help.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... You may have a lot on, which means constantly juggling spinning plates, but today's Moon-Mars tie in your lifestyle sector asks you not to do more, but to consider how you are feeling. The more you push yourself, the more you might resent doing so. A pause to consider your options could leave you with a plan that makes life easier and relieves a lot of tension.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... Your imagination is flowing, making this a wonderful time to write, paint, go on a romantic date and generally enjoy life. If a delightful opportunity shows up don't ignore it even if it takes you outside your comfort zone. A new hobby or exciting encounter could open new paths and lead to positive experiences. Rather than hide your light, it's time to shine bright.
