TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It looks as though there are some cozy moments to enjoy later in the day for you attached Taureans, while singles are likely to be on the receiving end of some welcome attention! A couple of beneficial aspects suggest that keeping an open mind is the way to go today!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If yesterday you were a little too straight-laced today you’ll be raring to go and ready for some serious fun! Friendships and romance feature highly today, although you may have to make a tricky choice, thanks to the moon. It will, however, be a very minor issue; just try not to overreact!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll be feeling incredibly dynamic today, thanks to the moon, and you’re likely to be in the mood for a good old-fashioned shopping spree too. Just check your cash-flow before you start spending, because you are likely to have a devil-may-care moment once you hit the mall!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The moon is likely to pave the way for a tricky day today, and you could find that you end up feeling a little too crowded by someone close to you. Try to adopt a more balanced, give-and- take approach; then you’ll feel less guilty about asking for some space later in the day!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): While your cash flow is not looking too wonderful you’ll find that romance takes off today, thanks to the planetary formation, but rather than being intense or sizzling you are likely to be in a far more sensitive mood, enjoying some very tender, cozy moments with someone rather special!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’re likely to have a fabulous day in terms of romance, and an excellent aspect from the moon suggests that you’ll be the center of attention, because someone is going to sit up and take notice of you today! There will also be the chance to get something off your chest once and for all!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Be careful how you approach a particular problem with someone today, which the planets are suggesting could be associated with a family member, because there is a danger that you will allow your feelings to spill over into anger. Try and remember that a calm approach is always the best route.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): An interesting aspect between Mercury and Pluto will see you in a very reflective mood today and this will provide the opportunity for some useful emotional breakthroughs. Penetrating conversations will be the order of the day and those around you may be surprised by your new levels of insight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): There is very little Earth energy around today and this may leave you feeling a little rootless and even confused about your direction in life in general. A good way of dealing with is to spend some time amongst nature, possibly through a trip to your local park with some friends or close family.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Usually you have a calm and reflective nature, but the influence of Mars will be making its presence felt today. You are likely to be feeling very passionate about a particular cause right now. The martial energies in your sign will encourage you to take some direct action to try and create positive changes in the world.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Recognition and rewards is likely to be the flavor of the day for you today, thanks to the planets. So if you’ve been feeling a little overlooked or even neglected by someone whose opinion matters you’ll find that today settles all those internal niggles and doubts!

FOR THOSE OF US BORN ON THIS DAY: Happy Birthday! The months ahead will begin with a period of intense focus on material matters that is likely to be stimulated by a change in lifestyle that requires some rethinking of your personal budget. The summer months will see your creative side coming to the fore and there is a good chance of you losing yourself in some form of artistic pursuit for a while. However, as the year progresses there will be a need for you to pay more attention to one particular relationship. There is a chance that in the preceding months your own development may have seen you placing the needs of those close to you on the burner. You will have time to rectify this before the year is out.

CELEBRITY GOSSIP: Matt Damon will be forever associated with the Bourne movie franchise despite having performed extremely well in some much more demanding and complex roles. In early 2016 Matt will feel the need to return to some more serious drama and may even try writing his own role!
