ARIES (March 21-April 19): A disciplined approach will lead to success; using force will slow you down. Think before you act, and stick to a plan you know you can deliver. Patience will give you the upper hand and encourage others to support your efforts. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Look at every angle, and summarise what you can do to ensure success. You’ll capture the heart of someone special if you do what you say without being told. Don’t let drama interfere with your progress. Proceed with an open mind. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Run your ideas past someone you trust. Don’t let an outsider persuade you to take on the impossible. Protect your reputation, health and rights. Follow your heart, andmake decisions based on your needs, not what someone else wants CANCER (June 21-July 22): Let your feelings be known by clearing the air. Dealing with emotional situations instead of fretting over them is favoured. Ameaningful relationship can’t move forward until you clear up uncertainty about future endeavours. LEO (July 23-Aug 22): Question what isn’t working for you, and you’ll come up with a reasonable plan that will encourage better relationships with others. Addressing issues head-on will give you the strength to stand up for what you want and to dismiss what worries you. VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22): Safeguard your cash. Emotional spending will be your downfall. You can show someone how much you care without going into debt. An affectionate gesture and long-term plans will lead to a warm and fuzzy future with someone special. LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22): Problems at home or with people who live with or near you will develop if you let your emotions take over. Listen, and choose your words wisely. How you react will determine if you can salvage a sensitive situation. SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21): Labouring over what others think or say is a waste of time. Get back to the things you like to do, and enjoy your day. Walk away fromdepressing situations and people who are negative. Update your look to suit your lifestyle. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Discipline is the key to your success. Plan your actions and follow through. Take control of whatever situation you face, and refuse to let anyone interfere in your business. Consider positive adjustments at home that make your surroundings convenient and comfortable. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Reminiscing will encourage you to implement pending changes at home. It’s up to you to lead the way if you want things done your way. Refuse to let a friend or relative use emotional manipulation to slow you down. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Rely on experience to guide you. Straighten out what isn’t working for you anymore. A conversation with someone who can influence your plans will help clarify how best to proceed. Don’t give up or give in; do what’s best for you. PISCES (Feb 19-March 20): You know what others expect of you and what you are willing to do, so be frank and get your priorities straight. A change you make will enhance your life, not limit your chance to achieve your dreams, hopes and wishes.
