Aries 21 March - 20 April... The Moon passes over Uranus today, so sudden invitations are possible and also last-minute changes of plans. Yet this can just add to a sense of excitement and anticipation. The alluring power of Venus also glides into the proud Leo for four weeks, which can spark your social appetite further. Making key business decisions? You can be bold and decisive, Aries.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... You can apply your exquisite taste to your abode. Whether this is tasteful new decoration, soft furnishings, or comfy new additions, you can create a stunning makeover that is stylish and functional. Mars is in your sign today, and its link to Mercury can also make you patient and tactful in conversations. People can also share their stories with you in the coming weeks.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... Your talent lies in fast, often witty communication. With Venus, the relating planet moving into the decorous Leo, meeting people who enjoy culture, the arts or music can add an extra dimension to your social sphere now. Yet with the Moon arriving in Gemini and meeting the restless Uranus, you might change your mind a few times later today, of exactly who with.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... You could feel a bit unsettled later on but it will likely be fleeting, Cancer. It may relate to a previous situation that jumps into your mind, but you can see it speed away. Mercury in your sign and its link to the action planet, Mars, can nudge you to connect with a friend. Sharing a meal could prove especially enjoyable as the sultry Venus arrives in your sector of pleasures.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... We all like to feel attractive and be admired, but it is just that much more precious for you, generally, Leo. However, with the arrival of the gorgeous Venus in your sign today, you can just feel that much more alluring. It's a great time to give yourself a glamorous makeover or indulge in some classy new attire. Single? More than one person can be drawn to you now.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... You may not see yourself as a rebel, ordinarily, but you may push back subtly today when someone is being unreasonable at work or in your daily interactions. You may not show your objection too obviously, but just enough for them to note they are pushing the boundaries too far. Good for you, if so. Over the next month, old friends may come to mind or get in touch.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Your lovely, gracious and charming ruler, Venus, glides into the grand Leo, and a month ahead of much social promise. The next week in particular, can be a time of special connections. This may come through mutual friends, events or gatherings, but if there is someone you meet perhaps unexpectedly, where you "feel" an instant connection, be guided by it.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... The Moon moves faster than any other planet, and today, it briefly whizzes by the zodiac's planet of freedom, Uranus. This could, for a few hours, make you a bit querulous, but it could also trigger a brilliant brainwave. With the planet of diplomacy gliding into the most visible sector in your chart, do embrace its finesse in all worldly situations from now on.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... You may need to say something today about an issue that has made you edgy. If you can, it can help to release the inner tension, even if you wonder if saying nothing is best. Yet there is one thing that Saturn in Pisces taught you in recent years, and that is not to let things fester. Once you have, you will be freer, lighter and brighter and can embrace the weekend.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Passionate Mars is in an expressive part of your chart, and is linked to the communicator, Mercury, in your sector of connection. If you've been building a dialogue with someone you like, while this may have led to some good interaction, perhaps some flirtation. The arrival of Venus in a deeply sensual zone could take the chemistry to another level. Ready for this?

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... Venus rules two zodiac signs, the earthy Taurus, and the airy Libra. The Libra energy has a gift for good relationships, and today Venus moves into your personal relating sector. One of the best ways to embrace this over the next four weeks is to celebrate the things you have in common with people, rather than focusing on what you don't. Mutual respect will follow.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... You may find yourself with a sudden urge to declutter or move the furnishings around, or, if you are feeling the pace of the week, lack the spark to leap into action. If it's the latter, you may be a little bored. Look to give yourself just three small tasks to complete. You may resist, but if you do something tangible, it will help move the moment but in a positive practical way.
