ARIES

March 21 to April 20

With Mercury, the planet that helps you think, spinning in a new direction in your job chart, ideas are different and dazzling.

In love, too, you are so individual and find such imaginative ways to show you care at every level of relationships.

New faces at work inspire you to be more competitive.

TAURUS

April 21 to May 21

A way of working that involves studying in your own time suddenly appeals.

It’s a big ask, yes, but also rewarding.

Already involved? Even the most stubborn partner cooperates.

GEMINI

May 22 to June 21

Your family zone is settling down after surprising mind changes – and the sternest critic of your home plans is now so helpful.

If you are in a relationship, resist promises that ask you to change who you are.

The real you is what attracted a partner.

If you’re single, find new passion where two different sports are played.

CANCER

June 22 to July 22

Mercury takes a new route through your communication chart and your words get the people who matter most to you to listen.

Even a get-together you have mixed feelings about can be a success.

But it’s someone who is always joking who is now so attracted to you.

Luck calls at door 17.

LEO

July 23 to August 23

VIRGO

August 24 to September 22

A travel decision may feel like a gamble but cool  Mercury urges you to look more closely.

Then you’ll see it could be a success.

You read or hear about a project today that can turn a personal ambition back on again.

Currently single? Your new partner has connections with the celebrity world and the initial “T”.

LIBRA

September 23 to October 23

Gossip is fun but it’s smart to avoid it, as Mercury is reversing in your emotions chart.

Another look at a house that began life as a shop inspires your property plans.

Later, a passion moon can transform a so-so relationship into a dream one.

Singles, meanwhile, meet The One where country music plays.

SCORPIO

October 24 to November 22

You can zoom in on your deepest ambitions and push yourself through a challenging process – professionally and personally.

The key is to work with what you have.

Connecting with people is your star gift and you can install yourself in anyone’s mind or heart.

But use this gift carefully and sincerely.

SAGITTARIUS

November 23 to December 21

A knowledgeable, good-looking newcomer may not be the one you would have chosen to work with but you will achieve so much together.

Putting feelings into words makes a surprising difference to even long-term relationships.

If you are single, the moon love-matches you with a fitness professional.

CAPRICORN

December 22 to January 20

Pluto is on a mission to help you to make money in unexpected ways.

You are good at boosting other people’s confidence but today it is vital to show you rate yourself highly.

Make the most of having Venus in your relationship zone to ensure you make the right love moves.

Single? Check out that sexy Scorpio again.

AQUARIUS

January 21 to February 18

There is much to be learned about other people, but especially about yourself.

At work, an extra task brings out skills you never guessed you had.

At home, you establish better ways of sharing responsibilities.

Love is selfless and the way you make partners – new or old – feel truly valued enriches relationships.

PISCES

February 19 to March 20

Activated by Mars, your career zone shines with spare energy so you finish routine tasks faster and free up time for a special project.

You can also inspire a gifted but unsure relative to work on their talent.

As Mercury rewinds, you see the flip-side of a partner . . . then romance and laughter deepen a relationship.
