Aries 21 March - 20 April... Today sees a genuinely rare and historic astrological event, a Venus Star Point in Scorpio, which will be the last in our lifetimes. This is when the Sun and Venus are completely in unison. This could be a fated day for a relationship, disconnection or reconnection, or a pivotal moment for a long-term business partnership. You will likely feel a very intense energy.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... We all have different types of relationships, from the deeply personal to fleeting connections and lasting bonds of friendship. Today, just what these mean to you can come very profoundly into focus. You may feel content, you might feel whimsical, or you may be happy to celebrate your independence, but it is still a fine day to see where things stand.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... Someone you work with can say something that makes you realise that, despite the practical nature of the tie, they are actually really good to be with. However, if you have a job or life role where practicality is coming before personal satisfaction, you can find yourself thinking over what the options could be. So definitely a day to consider the value in things.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... If you have a joyful side to your nature, is it being given the fullest chance to come out to play? True, there are times when life can be serious, and we need to rightly treat these periods with brevity. If you can, however, consider today whether you could bring a bit more creativity, spontaneity and mirth into the mix. This may require you to let go of being so protective.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... This is a fine time to review and reset some close family relationships, or those with the people at the core of your circle. Looking at things from a different perspective can help with this. Sometimes, for example, people bring things to our lives that might not seem so sexy, but that doesn't mean those qualities don't have value. Your home can also mean more to you now.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... Words mean lots of different things. Sometimes a frivolous exchange can spark an uplift in mood and outlook. At other times, someone looking to cheer us up can leave us even more down in the dumps. Words can be charming, flirtatious, pointed, discreet or elusive, but it is the message behind them which is so incredibly important. What will yours mean today, Virgo?

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Your gorgeous ruler Venus has many facets, and through your sign she represents charm, style, refinement, good taste and classy diplomacy. However, she also influences our values, self-worth and appreciation of the good things in life, as well as everyday money. It is this second set of qualities which can glow up fabulously well today, with the Venus cazimi with the Sun.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... When Venus is in retrograde, as she is now, and in your sign, it can be a time to reflect, revise and reset. Just how, though, might surprise you. Her connection with the Sun entering your sign is so incredibly rare that it will never happen again in our lifetimes, so that reflection can take on a whole deeper level of meaning. Will it be about love? A bond? Or your image?

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... As the Sun, newly arrived in the deep, complex Scorpio today, meets with the retreating Venus, one of the sky's most magical and alluring planetary connections is forged. This won't happen again in this sign, so we need to relish the uniqueness. However, even you, who can be the ultimate freedom lover, may feel nostalgic for someone from your past.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... We all know about fair-weather friends. Yet these can come about partly through expectation. That's not to say that building bonds of trust is faulty, simply that staying aware that people's affections do ebb and flow is a realistic thing to do. Today, celebrate the people who are steadfast, but also look to release any wounds from those who didn't stick around.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... Your public profile comes sharply into focus over the next month. Even if you are very self-effacing, a mover and shaker may have been quietly watching your progress. An opportunity that you thought had passed you by can return, or a once-significant business contract may re-emerge. Your connection to your parents or in-laws is also highlighted.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... A place you have found really enchanting in the past can drift into your mind. It could be that you will have a fleeting and warm recollection of the magic of the place. Perhaps enough to rebook? Or will you find yourself thinking about how you message someone you're drawn to? You may even start considering a new vehicle or some kind of writing course.
