Aries 21 March - 20 April... Your enthusiasm can be palpable as you power into this new week, Aries, and nothing can seem too daunting for you. But with Venus and the Moon in an opposition, it suggests as much as your desire to get things done quickly can be helpful, tact and diplomacy will ease your path most. This will be especially so if you are interacting with a close family member.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... Your appreciation of the good things in life can be accentuated today, and your generosity can also flourish. But there may also be something that you feel spurred to purchase that comes from a deeper yearning, maybe even an unexpected nudge to snuffle an item that you hadn't anticipated that you'd want. However, in contrast, you may decide to vent an old grievance.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... With your ruler, Mercury, having moved into a more reflective area and coming into a challenging right angle with the powerful Pluto later this week, a revelation is possible, but maybe what comes up and out will be for the best. And you could be lifted by the support and enthusiasm of one friend. Their encouragement can just chime in the right way for you, Gemini.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... With Jupiter in your sign in a powerful angle to Mars, the planet of action and desire, in a very prominent zone, if there is a goal that you really want to attain, your drive and passion to achieve this can be extremely strong. But ironically, you could also be tempted to pivot into something completely different and let go of what no longer brings joy or feeds your soul.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... Your natural warmth and charisma can burn brightly as we enter this new week. And with Venus and the Moon aligning beautifully, you can resonate in just the right way with the people you encounter. But something you've thought about deeply over the last eight or nine months, but hasn't yet materialised, could start to do so, as this week unfolds, Leo.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... The Moon occupies a sensitive and homey area, which may see you wanting to ease into the week without too many demands. But another part of your nature may be relishing a challenge. What will it be? There can be a growing sense that staying as you are is unlikely to be an option. And even if you just mull this over today, this realisation can grow stronger.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... You realise more than any other zodiac sign, Libra, that it's not just words and ideas that count, but also tone. And your appreciation of framing things in just the right way can be heightened today. But beneath this can certainly be a lot of desire and thrust to get your message across, and it most certainly can be heard today and by someone influential.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... Part of you may want to be super-efficient, productive, and functional. Another part of you may want to completely escape the very things you know you should really be doing. And with the Moon and Venus forging an evocative connection, if escapism does win out, you'll want to do so indulgently. Will you feel guilty? Perhaps, but perhaps not that guilty!

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... It's likely going to be a pacey start to the week for you Archer, with the Moon in your sign forging an energetic link to the robust Mars in your sister fire sign of Aries. Also, your ruler Jupiter is linking to Mars, and you're probably going to want to be very dynamic in all the moves that you make. With the harmonising Venus also supportive, people can be responsive.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Capricorns have a reputation for being cautious and even reserved. And that can seem to play out today with the Moon starting the week in a more reflective area. There is certainly a lot to mull over, but despite this, there can be one person that keeps coming up on your cosmic radar, that you could still be drawn to reach out to - be it for business or pleasure.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... Although the Sun and Mercury are bringing energy to your home and family situation, it's your ideas sector that continues to be especially illuminated, and the energetic Mars' connection to the expansive Jupiter today can put you in the mood to tackle a challenge. But if you can add your creativity and flair to the mix, it's likely the perfect formula, Aquarius.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... Your traditional ruler, Jupiter, continues in a flamboyant zone through to the end of June and is encouraging you to showcase your creative brilliance in all its different guises. If you can find a way to convert those talents into improving your income or even sense of self, this can certainly be a fine time to push forward. Your need for recognition is also heightened today.
