Aries 21 March - 20 April... Patience will be a virtue today, especially if you meet resistance to something you want to get done quickly. Battles of wills can feature, and issues that have been simmering out of sight can suddenly surface. Someone may have a different viewpoint on a financial matter, or a point of principle can be at stake. Yet you can stand strong on how you see things, Aries.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... You can be a patient and understanding person, Taurus, but you don't like to be pushed to go any quicker than you are prepared to go. Someone may try to disguise their intentions by laying on the charm. It probably won't cut any ice with you, and you can dig your Bulls heels in, and you may go on a go-slow. It just may be, however, that this person is your boss!

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... Mars, the planet of action and desire, is tucked away, for you, in the steady Taurus, where it ponders rather than acts obviously. Someone may be a bit of a nit-picker today, but rather than react, you may pause and consider what to do. You may slowly lean into what they say, or decide to be obstinate, distract, or deflect by suggesting another way of doing things.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... If you feel someone is being unresponsive, distracted, or disinterested, it can niggle you, Cancer. Just know the Moon in Scorpio today may see you want to show affection and warmth, but her face-off with Mars in Taurus can see someone resist. Neither of you may want to let this bubble up too openly. The outcome can be a simmering stalemate.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... A T Square featured in architects' offices before technology took hold, but in astrology, it's when two planets oppose one another and are squared by a third. Today, this happens, if fleetingly, between the Moon, Mars, and Pluto. Pushing hard to make progress at work? Your need for recognition can increase, but so can your angst if it's denied.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... One of your great strengths is your realism, which comes from the earth rulership of the sign of Virgo, which appreciates patient application and sensible expectations. Yet it's likely that things are shifting in your work situation, which will require you to flex and adapt. A conversation today can confirm this, and that resistance may prove futile.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... That part of you that appreciates more luxurious or stylish items is amplified today, as is the impulse to buy them. If your budget is sound, and you can please yourself, why not indulge your senses, Libra - even with a modest treat? Shared finances could though, be more complex - especially if one of you is less carefree and more sensible about managing money.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... Scorpio is a complex zodiac sign, with each person born under it having their own unique way of being. However, a powerful will is a core trait, and with your two rulers impacting the Moon in the sign today, your desire to get what you need is heightened. All you have to do now is decide what you are determined to get, and make it happen!

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... The Moon is in a very sensitive part of your solar chart, Archer. It comes into conflict with both the feisty Mars and the powerbroker Pluto. And this trio can be triggering if you encounter a roadblock. You like to flow forward at a pace, but it may not happen. If so, change down your cosmic gearbox and bide your time. Soon enough, you'll be powering forward.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Is someone new capturing your imagination? If so, it may be difficult to get them out of your mind. With risk-taker Mars in the mood to break out and be daring, you can feel the need to connect, now. It's just the Moon suggests you are more cautious. So, why not get some friendly chat going back and forth and take it step by step, Capricorn? It may feel easier.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... If home changes are a priority, a delay today could feel frustrating. Pluto in your sign is pushing you to take firm charge of what you need, but if you do this, you may meet resistance. Sometimes it's best to step back, disengage from how it is in the moment, and take a more philosophical stance. The likelihood you will get there, in the end.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... A conversation can be intense today. Someone can be direct, even blunt. This might be you, although it's not your usual style. Something tender could get said, an observation made, a point of view shared, or a criticism, and you can feel it. If so, rather than respond in kind, it may be best to detach and take the time to consider what's really behind this.
