21 March - 20 April » This week's feelgood factor, created by the lovely joust between relator Venus and luck-maker Jupiter, continues, but is tested by the complex blend between the Moon and deep Pluto. Unfortunately, a friend may find your successes difficult, or might it be you who is feeling left in the shade? It may be best to try and think the best today, however wary you are.

21 April - 21 May » You may find that however obliging you try to be, someone you encounter in a worldly or professional situation may prove unyielding or be unappreciative. In fact, it can seem that they take some strange enjoyment from not meeting you halfway. If so, see this quickly, but then try to detach yourself. What's really showing up here is your developing confidence.

22 May - 21 June » In recent weeks you have seen yourself finding your voice and expressing your ideas with added sparkle. However, this has probably mainly been when you feel mentally switched on and curious. So today, when someone reminds you of the need to attend to a routine issue, one that doesn't grip you, you may find yourself tensing up, resenting it or pushing back.

22 June - 23 July » Even if you like to keep your household expenditure on an even keel, you may have been tempted by something rather hard to resist. If your budget allows, why not? But if you share your finances with another person, things could get complex if they don't have the same yearning or desires. To help, consider whether this item has a practical benefit.

24 July - 23 August » Life has felt sunny and vibrant, and rightly so. For with such an impressive posse of planetary players in your sign, your natural charisma has been turned up to max. Continue to strut your stuff, Leo, but also know that the Moon's journey through intense Scorpio creates some complexities from nowhere, and sadly jealousy may be at the root of some of this.

24 August - 23 September » The desire to withdraw and enjoy some peace may be stronger than usual. Yet even in the calmest surroundings, a conversation or message could stir up old dormant feelings. Before reading too much into someone's words or motives, pause. True, they may have felt a little jarring, but don't add oxygen by responding in kind. Take time to ruminate on this.

24 September - 23 October » With Venus, your ruling planet, continuing to enjoy such an uplifting link with Jupiter, here is every reason to embrace life's pleasures and enjoy good company. Even so, today's lunar angle to Pluto suggests that one person's reaction could leave you wondering where you stand. It may be that their insecurities or mood are behind this, so please try to rise above this.

24 October - 22 November » With the Moon in your sign briefly but powerfully clashing with your modern ruler Pluto, this can trigger raw emotions that run deeper than those around you realise. Part of the issue is that you see undercurrents that others miss. Trust your instincts but accept you can't control how things will play out. This can still be a successful time if you shrug off such distractions.

23 November - 21 December » The upbeat influence of Venus and Jupiter continues to encourage you to widen your horizons and surge ahead with optimism. Yet fleetingly, today's more intense influences suggest that a private worry or lingering doubt could cloud your thinking. Rather than letting this concern dampen your spirits, remind yourself just how much progress you've already made.

22 December - 20 January » Someone else's expectations could leave you feeling under pressure, particularly if money or responsibilities are involved. While you are usually willing to shoulder your share, today is a reminder that healthy boundaries matter too. Just know that the support and encouragement from good friends is more valuable than appeasing such a hard-to-please person.

21 January - 19 February » With Pluto continuing its powerful journey through your sign, today's awkward square to the Moon may make you aware of differences between your own ambitions and someone else's expectations. You are likely feeling very driven at the moment too, and impatient for things to progress at your pace, but this could feel testing to the routines or pace they are used to.

20 February - 20 March » This week's lovely Venus and Jupiter sextile continues to create the potential for warmth and goodwill, especially through small, thoughtful gestures. And yet, today's Moon vibes hint that an old anxiety or hidden concern could briefly surface. If so, don't dismiss this; rather, acknowledge it is part of you, but know not everyone can see or realise it is there, Pisces.
