♈ ARIES

All these are well within your grasp.

In love? Just being there for each other can see a couple through any complicated times.

♊ GEMINI

May 22 to June 21

Showing upfront the kind of love levels you need in a partnership or a family may feel a challenge right now.

♋ CANCER

June 22 to July 22

You may find the new energy of Mars in your chart feels hot to handle but this is all part of the daring star sign you are becoming.

You can assess risks quickly and trust your own judgement in every case.

Passion-wise, you radiate irresistible attraction, and someone who’s been so quiet is ready to make a move.

♌ LEO

July 23 to August 23

Venus rules finances as well as feelings, and is well installed now in your money sector.

So cash choices you have been putting off, perhaps for years, get a green light – and you feel more confident in how and what you spend.

If love and money are linked via one big purchase, two steps forward are so close.

♍ VIRGO

August 24 to September 22

If you’re getting used to being the passion star of the zodiac, things get even better today.

You are packed with Venus personal love-power, as well as the unpredictable edge of Pluto – and Mars makes you bold enough to say anything, to anyone.

But best of all is your moon emotional peace.

♎ LIBRA

September 23 to October 23

A values-led moon clashes with Jupiter in your chart and this can upend any ideas of what you need to turn into, in order to succeed.

When you step away from a series of changes that have never felt a great fit, you can see a simpler way.

Love-wise, daydreaming can bring a surprise face into your mind.

♏ SCORPIO

October 24 to November 22

You’re firing up with Mars energy and not everyone may like this – as you take the lead in a race.

If this links to a love bond, having a calm conversation today can keep any changes mutual tomorrow.

Yes, work envy may be growing, but you can defuse this by sharing chances and cash equally.

♐ SAGITTARIUS

November 23 to December 21

How you deal with friends today is a master class in diplomacy – as you can keep their dreams alive but also manage them with reality.

And a time of feeling silence eating away at trust, or respect, can be over.

In love terms, too, when you are clear about a due change, a partner can come on board.

December 22 to January 20

Nothing stays the same for long – including love – and letting yourself go with the flow of feelings is a positive move today.

♒ AQUARIUS

January 21 to February 18

Your heart is on a high, and the emotional strength of Mars just makes this stronger.

But do talk through any big decisions with someone you trust, and don’t be pressured by deadlines.

Deep inside, Venus reminds you the one person you can always believe, and believe in, 100 per cent is . . . yourself.

♓ PISCES

February 19 to March 20

A voyager moon brings thoughts of travel back into your chart – and instead of holding out for one dream location, you are ready to look at other options.

A friend or family member’s special celebration can be a key clue.

When you see a task-based TV show, it can be the cue to kick-start your own business project.
