ARIES

Few among you can be in an upset mood today. The better they know you, the less controlled they'll be about losing their temper. Such are the benefits of familiarity! Of course, there's every chance that you'll be the one who's hopping up and down with irritation, in which case make sure that you get angry about what's really wrong, rather than petty distractions.

TAURUS

Your energy levels start to rise from today, and they'll keep you in fine fettle till day end. This is a super chance to push ahead with any project that requires stamina, bravado or initiative, because you'll have bags of all three. Mind you, it's important to guard against any tendency to seem too brash, pushy or confident, so you may have to take yourself in hand at times

GEMINI

If a relationship is currently undergoing a transformation, this is an excellent opportunity to talk about what's going on with the person concerned. You're in the mood for some in-depth and searching conversation. However, try to resist any temptation to brainwash or badger the other person into seeing things from your point of view, or even to insist that you're in the right

CANCER

During the coming fortnight you have to do some serious thinking about someone you love. Maybe you need to have a quiet word in their ear about something, in the hope that you can nip a potential problem in the bud before it becomes serious. There's also a chance that your feelings for this person are changing and that you need to reflect on this and what it means.

LEO

The day is good for tying up loose ends and familiarizing yourself with a new environment. You can balance your budget if you spend a little time putting everything down on paper. A situation may arise when you have to step in and solve a personal affair for a friend. Your mate seeks the world in your arms

VIRGO

It's important that you keep your feet on the ground today, especially where finances and romance are concerned. But that will be much easier said than done because you'll have a strong tendency to get carried away by the heat of the moment, whether you're out shopping and spot something you've just got to have or you're dreaming about you- know-who

LIBRA

Thinking broadly may help you come through professional or emotional problem and provide you with a new direction. Handle all your relationships with care. It will be all too easy to fight over petty differences. Close ties show their concern towards important issues. Emotions reach a high point in romance

SCORPIO

The pace of life seems to pick up, but someone may be trying to push you too much. It would be a good idea to pay attention to your monetary resources and balance the books. In romance, you find an outlet for excesses of passions. Is the world around you going crazy in love?

SAGITARIOUS

If you're already kicking yourself about those extravagant spending sprees you've been having lately, you'd better leave the credit card at home, or padlock your purse today. You'll be overwhelmed by the urge to splurge and it will be almost impossible to resist it. If the shops are calling too loudly for you to ignore, take only the cash you can afford to spend and leave your credit cards or chequebook at home.

CAPRICORN

Keep active! You have bags of energy and enterprise today and you should make the most of them. If you're going shopping you'll have much more stamina than usual, and will also be good at striking a bargain if you get the chance. If you get involved in a discussion or negotiation you'll leave no one in any doubt about where you stand.

AQUARIOUS

An even approach works better in professional matters, so keep your cool. Financial communications could be interrupted due to a past error, or data problem. Try to relax as much possible and don't plan on spending money unless it's immediately necessary. In romance, future hopes provide greater pleasure

PISCES

Your work skills are on test but you can get through it. Superiors can suddenly load you with more responsibilities, although a lack of previous experience could make you nervous. Experimental purchases are unlikely to be successful. Romance is a soul lifting and heart warming experience.
