Aries 21 March - 20 April... The Moon in the upbeat and freedom-loving Sagittarius quickly goes face-to-face with Uranus. This could make you restless but equally give you a flash of brilliant inspiration to guide you. And with Venus and Mercury in a very positive alliance, you can discuss home or practical issues in a way which teases out some fresh approaches and solutions that really help.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... Your ruler, Venus, continues its journey through a creative but practical part of your chart. Her link to the speedy Mercury in Cancer is perfect to connect with people with shared interests, hobbies or creative strands. Home cooking could also call out, and a new recipe or approach could bring a slice of newness. If you enjoy writing, your ideas can really flow.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... The Moon in Sagittarius opposes your sign, and your new resident, Uranus, potentially stirs sudden shifts in conversation or thinking. You may feel supercharged but look to pace yourself to avoid scattering your energies. With Mercury, now direct and linking to Venus, you have a great chance to discuss practical and emotional strands positively and productively.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... Today is perfect to put recent thoughts into words and clear what may have become stuck or tangled. And as Mercury and Venus align, the sparkle they bring can see help from friends or colleagues with shared plans or practical arrangements. That said, you might find yourself tempted by an item today, and if you are feeling the celestial uplift, decide to buy it in a flash.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... Venus is not just the planet of romance. She also impacts our taste, fashion choices and even food choices. Venus can also attract goodness financially, and today's link to the quicksilver Mercury in a sheltered area suggests an idea that's been simmering in the background, or one you have carefully researched, can become a lot more attractive and could see you cash in.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... Venus in your sign links harmoniously with Mercury, which can see you sparkle around friendships and group activities as communications flow, especially around shared goals and creative ideas. Yet as the Moon and Uranus clash, this could see something shift suddenly, but not necessarily negatively, with your flexibility helping to keep plans open and adaptable.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Professional aspirations may have felt bogged down through Mercury's recent retrograde. Today, as Mercury links superbly to your ruler, Venus, a lot of what you have been doing discreetly behind the scenes can come back to you positively. All the confidential discussions, soundings or research you've done will shine brightly and be seen as astute and measured.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... Today's Sagittarius Moon and its quick interaction with Uranus may encourage your spontaneous side. And with chatty Mercury in an expansive area, supported by the diplomatic Venus in Virgo, this combination can pique your interest in learning, travel or meaningful conversations, before then investing in something that brings a spark to bear. Go on, be daring.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... With the Moon in your sign, emotions and reactions may be amplified. Her interaction with Uranus in Gemini could bring surprises in conversations or close connections. That's perfect for you, because routine is anathema to many Archers, but where you can apply this may be with a business interest or at work, where you can strategise with meaning and a hopeful outcome.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... One influence today can help create a crystal-clear connection, which can delight you. This can be particularly so with a friend or a group of associates, where you can pool skills which complement one another. Yet, in contrast, you might find yourself uncertain or a bit irritable. In sum, it's best to work on those beneficial collaborations and steer clear of any draining ties.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... The day may be slightly erratic, as the Moon in Sagittarius brings busyness and movement, while Uranus introduces sudden shifts in plans or routines. This could impact what you intend to do over the weekend, so it may be best to keep things a little flexible. However, if you are keen to grapple with finances, your eye for detail can shrewdly tease out more value.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... Whatever your frame of mind, it's likely to feel more obvious to others. However, if you are in a good space, the perfect alliance between the lovely Venus and the witty energies of Mercury can see you in an upbeat, even jolly or flirtatious, exchange. However, if you feel pressed with worldly demands or expectations, you may want to spin out and enjoy life.
