Aries (Mar21/Apr20) You're having an internal conflict between work and pleasure. Part of you wants nothing more than to stay home with your loved ones. The other half yearns to be a success in your chosen career. Strike a balance. You've got lots of great ideas concerning making your workplace more productive; share them with your boss. Make time for a going away party later in the week. This is your big chance to tell a friend how much they mean to you.

> Taurus (Apr21/May21) Somebody's false compliments are giving you a skewed picture of reality. Be more sceptical of overblown praise. You're made admirable progress, but still have a long way to go. You could reach a career milestone this week, resulting in a bigger paycheque. Maybe it's time to scale back your work responsibilities. If you don't have a creative outlet, you need to find one. You've been blessed with lots of artistic talent. Put it to use now, while you have a chance.

Gemini (May22/Jun21) Resist the urge to indulge in retail therapy. Spending money on luxuries could plunge you into debt. You need to think about your long term security. Putting down firm and lasting roots is a good idea and so is buying or selling property. You could negotiate a great interest rate with the bank. Concluding an overseas business deal will result in more freedom for you. Don't be surprised if your boss widens your territory or asks you to live overseas.

Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) The temptation to use your sex appeal to manipulate others is overwhelming. You know how much a powerful person admires you. Pretending to share their feelings will be a cruel deception. You're better off appealing to their rational side. That way, nobody can accuse you of using underhanded methods. Paying off a debt gives you a surge of confidence. Now you're free you can spend more time on pleasurable solitary pursuits.

> Leo (Jul24/Aug23) It may be wise to put some distance between you and a solicitous colleague. They are pretending to be your friend because they want something from you. It's best to keep your bright ideas under wraps, lest your rival tries to steal them. This is a good time to negotiate a raise, or at least some better work assignments. You're three times as productive as the people around you. Ask a close friend, business partner, or lover for help in realising a cherished dream.

Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) Friends are worried that you are losing your heart to someone who doesn't deserve it. Resist the urge to turn away when they express concern over your wellbeing. You need to be more assertive with the object of your affection. If you suffer from jealousy, you need to engage in activities that build your self esteem. Writing, gardening, or yoga can take the edge off your obsession. Bringing a work matter to a successful conclusion could lead to a promotion.

Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Just because you look great to the world doesn't mean all is well. Your flawless image is hiding some serious inner turmoil. You need to come to terms with feelings of anger, pain, and frustration. That doesn't mean abandoning a loved one or trading one lifestyle for another. It means learning to deal with problems. A child or lover turns an important corner; this is cause for celebration. This breakthrough gives you more time for intellectual pursuits.

Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Somebody may try to push you into an arrangement that goes against your conscience. You need to stand firm against temptation. It's possible they will even try to use their seductive charms if they have any.

Stay close to supportive friends. They'll keep your feet planted firmly on the ground. An emotional family situation is coming to a close. This helps you spend more time on your love life and gives you a chance to share your innermost feelings.

Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) Someone could try to trick you out of your hard earned cash. Stand up for yourself. It would be a tragedy if you jeopardised your financial security for the sake of a manipulator. If you're looking for work, this would be a good time to go on interviews. Be sure to stress your communication skills when talking to future employers. Good news could arrive by the end of the week. Take this opportunity to go out and celebrate with a supportive friend or lover.

Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) If a romantic relationship is going to survive; you need to be a little more kind and considerate. Lately, you've been focused on your own needs. This has caused you to snub the object of your affection. Take this opportunity to do something nice on their behalf. Get into the habit of complimenting them, too. If you're single and looking for love, you need to let down your guard. A hefty pay packet helps you hire a personal trainer or join a good gym.

Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Overindulging in food and drink is taking a toll on your health. It's hard to find the energy for things you need to do when your system is overtaxed.

Stay away from friends who encourage bad habits. You'll need every ounce of willpower. A public presentation attracts favourable publicity. Don't be surprised if several would be wooers come out of the woodwork. You'll have the pick of the litter. Choose the one that offers the most intellectual stimulation.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Peer pressure could be stopping you doing something you love. Don't be so self conscious about doing what you want to do. Who cares what others think? A close friend gives you an added dose of courage. Stick close to them when it comes to pursuing a cherished dream.

Relatives and casual friends may think you're crazy, but ultimately, you've got to follow your own heart. A spiritual revelation makes you realise a need to respect your feelings, even at the risk of being rude. >
