ARIES (Mar 21 - Apr. 20)

Your stars are moving on - and fast. The time is rapidly approaching when you will simply have to agree to an important settlement because it is right for all concerned, not necessarily because it's just in your own interests. You should press ahead with travel plans, partly because it's time to broaden your horizons in all areas.

TAURUS (Apr. 21 - May 21)

The financial sectors of your horoscope also have deep psychological implications, so ask yourself whether or not you are buying things to secure happiness, or as a substitute for it. This is a subtle distinction, perhaps, but it's an important one for all that. A romantic goal comes one step closer to fruition.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21)

Professionally, the sky is the limit just as long as you realise that what matters now is personal relationships with colleagues. Always do your best to get on with people, make them feel good, and see to it that they like you. At home you should get practical repairs done - and quickly. The longer you leave problems to fester, the worse they will get.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23)

You may now have no alternative but to come to terms with enforced changes in relationships. Indeed, the more you accept that current conditions are there to stay, the sooner you can get on and make the most of marvellous emotional possibilities. A professional plan could be postponed, but not for too long: you will have to come to a final decision soon.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23)

Professional matters are profoundly important and, even if you're not at work, you should give top priority to satisfying your own interests and fulfilling your worldly ambitions. In your private life, get in touch with old friends or ex-lovers. A trip to the past could prove entertaining, and nostalgia could be just the thing to prepare you for the future.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23)

All the indications are that passionate and intimate relationships are now subject to curious and uncertain influences. Your instincts and hunches should be urging you to delay important decisions for a little while longer. Wait until you know exactly what is happening and, once you have all the information at your finger-tips, make your move.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23)

You should be quite sure that you are offloading only what has become stale and worn out. The danger is that you will throw away the good with the bad, the deeply useful with the utterly useless! It therefore goes without saying that you should think long and hard before speaking on vital matters: it's very important that you find the right words.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22)

At work, you have now entered a short but crucial and demanding phase when so much you take for granted is up for grabs. It's important that you are able to distinguish your own changes of attitude from your responses to events beyond your control. An emotional wish should come true before long, so hang on for a few more days!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 22)

Powerful planets are now definitely on your side, so you can afford to hope for the best. At long last you are able to assert your primacy in all emotional relationships, whether at home, in love or at work. Project yourself in the right way and people will look to you as a figure always to be relied upon. The best advice will come from a complete stranger.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 23 - Jan. 20)

You will almost certainly resent anyone who tries to peer into your secret world or private life. You can probably get away with giving other people the impression that they are being kept up to date, while actually telling them nothing! Keep colleagues at work informed on a 'need to know' basis, at least until they are fully on side!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19)

You appear to have cut quite a dash over the past few weeks but, with Mars about to adjust its position, you must realise that you can no longer go on as before. It's important to consolidate all personal gains rather than taking on fresh activities, otherwise you may over-commit yourself. And then you would be even further away from achieving your goals.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar 20)

Not all your stars are on your wavelength. If you are slightly irritable, it's because other people appear to be standing in your way. You sense an imminent change in your energy level, emotional mood and personal affairs, while for some reason you also feel as if you are being held back. It should be about another month before you're ready to achieve lift-off.

SIGN OF THE MONTH: TAURUS

This is not the first year that you're experiencing Pluto's dramatic power, although now it's reaching a pivotal point of your chart, so it's time for material, emotional and spiritual renewal. Plus, with Neptune, planet of dreams and illusions, in a secretive location, you often seem to have an uphill battle convincing family members and loved ones that you are not being completely impractical, chasing rainbows and hoping to find a non-existent pot of gold. At the New Moon on 1st September you'll be under pressure to make a choice, yet there's no reason why you should be forced into a decision by other people. Your fantasies and vision of the future are what make you human and in no circumstances should you be bullied into abandoning them. Venus' gentle movements add a magical dimension to your emotional life. Although it's quite possible to dwell on difficulties and problems, you'll be acting in the interests of your own happiness if you help the planets do their work by setting ample time aside to pursue any artistic interests which have been allowed to lapse, and by making the unashamed pursuit of pleasure one of your main priorities. Time spent in such a way is not wasted but is essential if you are to keep alive the creative flame which lies at the heart of your existence.
