Aries 21 March - 20 April... The Moon glides into the planet of connection, Libra. Here, she encourages harmony and mutual give-and-take. However, in your work, with Black Moon Lilith making you mindful of the reality of your job or place in the world, Neptune in your sign urges you not to get too caught up in how you'd like things to be. Look to engage with the realities in a direct way.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... You can find yourself unusually sensitive today. This isn't a bad thing, but whatever you need to deal with that is less practical can seem amplified. That part of you that has been actively developing a keen interest in healing, reflection, personal development, and releasing things from the past that no longer serve you is good, but stay attuned to practicalities, too.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... You know the old saying, Gemini: it's the quality, not the quantity, that counts, and even if the many friends many of us have on social media are not those we will meet, they are still a nice boost for our confidence. However, in the last phase of this year, what you are doing now and how it fits into your future are more important than people's approval.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... Although the energy of the Moon has a huge impact upon us all, this is especially so for you, Cancer, as she is your personal planet. Today she moves into an area that asks you to blend your intuition with a degree of logic, but, most of all, to ensure that the communication is flowing. That's not always as straightforward as it sounds, but it's the way the opportunities lie.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... Many of us can be chatty when the mood takes us, but do we always exactly match how we feel with what we say? No, because life is a constant set of judgements based on the circumstances, we find ourselves in, the company we keep, and our current frame of mind. With Mars in your sign, it would be easy to mask just now, but is it really what's what?

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... We all like comfort - how about comfort food? Umm, moot point, eh? If you do permit yourself to enjoy a calorific goodie today, don't be too hard on yourself. Nor, equally, if you stay on the straight and narrow, look to award yourself a cosmic gold star. The key here is knowing that the human state can have varied responses, and that's absolutely okay.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Each year we enjoy an opportunity for the pure essence of our zodiac sign to be ignited by the magic of the Sun and Moon in unison. You are starting the build-up to that today, Libra, but for a sign like yours, often with an acute appreciation of how people view you, look to focus 100% on what is important to you. And if need be, be totally and utterly single-minded.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... That part of you which can use the sheer power of your personality to protect yourself or compete in life has been much to the fore. Today you can find yourself reflecting on an exchange and what the meaning of it has truly been. Expect to feel a little tender in the next few days, but it could show up as an important and guiding insight for you.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... You may still be processing something from yesterday; the good news, however, is that whatever it is, you can feel less exposed. Not that you can't handle that, but feelings have been close to the surface. A friendly chat today can also be a good way to move the moment. Someone that shares your larger-than-life persona can be the tonic to lift you, Sagittarius.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Something you feel strongly about might not have resonated with a friend, and though you know that doesn't make them against you, it can also seem, vaguely, that they are not with you. Try not to dwell on this too much. It could be they are preoccupied with other demands or can't quite flex into your situation. Either way, a work situation now calls out.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... We can free ourselves by doing something off the cuff, but taking up a new and interesting hobby, or by taking some time out. Your more independent-minded side could show up now, but that is healthy. Being co-ruled by the freedom-loving Uranus, as you are, sometimes finding your own space is essential for your peace of mind. So, what's it to be?

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... You can find yourself thinking deeply about life, or more practically about anything where you are closely entwined with another person. This may be in a personal tie, but equally a business situation. If you have felt restless, taking the time to appraise why this might be is very valuable. This may see you enjoy some time out from others, and why not?
