ARIES (March 21-April 19): If you can tone down a slight tendency to be in full control, then work/career matters could see an upswing. One specific contact could prove to be a wise investment, although the first move may well need to come from you. However, it’s a day to be cautiously strategic!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A moment of doubt could cause a certain amount of stress and you might be tempted to address it fully. However, it may be a question of just hanging on for a little while longer. It may even be a question of the less you do with regard to this single matter, the better it will be!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Lunar influences suggest a tendency to waste the day. Striking the right balance between thought and activity won’t be as easy as it sounds, but if you can achieve this, then the day offers, amongst other things, a chance to catch up on the work-front and some tender vibes on the romance one!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): It’s a relatively calmer day, given the hectic pace of the week, although you should resist taking on more than you can handle. A temporary dash of luck and charm your way in the evening should not be taken as a positive sign to address something that right now is resistant to change!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): If you can somehow ignore the simmering intensity of the demanding vibe, then much can be achieved. The rather obvious dynamic of highs and lows could bring a hidden advantage, in that you’ll have the ability to spot or recognize a developing problem before anyone else. Don’t brush it under the carpet!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It may be wise to take certain incoming information with a grain of salt. It’s definitely a day to look beneath the surface, especially when it comes to advice and suggestions in general. Second opinions may well come from the best of intentions, but they may not be all that useful!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The rather fine-tuned influences may well be counterproductive. Rather than encouraging good practices, they’ll promote self- interest. A little discipline may need to be summoned in order to decline something that you know isn’t good for you. It’s certainly a day to consider someone’s feelings too!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A sun/moon aspect may create one of those walking-through- treacle days, which will be peppered with minor but irritating moments of carelessness. That said; there looks to be one very positive development around the evening time. This could be linked to incoming news!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The day may feel settled to begin with, but a pesky sun/moon combination may well slow or reverse progress in one particular area; possibly the work front. An idea or suggestion could reveal flaws and cracks that you haven’t anticipated and you may need to reassess how you deal with this!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): If you can maintain an upbeat attitude, then it’s a day where practical and accessible solutions will be within reach. A minor blip or setback should be regarded as an opportunity to fine- tune a specific process or procedure, with the emphasis on efficiency and getting ahead!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A sun/moon aspect could act one of two ways. It will either guide you to introduce a little balance into your day-to-day schedule, which is likely to serve your long term interests, or it will encourage a slightly narrow perspective, which will offer a short-lived, very short term boost!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s not a good day to postpone tasks or chores, no matter how uncluttered your schedule may seem. Right now the signs may look good for taking it easy, but this is very likely to be a temporary lull in an otherwise time-pressured week. Use the calmer vibe to clear as much backlog as possible!

FOR THOSE OF US BORN ON THIS DAY: Happy Birthday! The months ahead are likely to start with too much focus on the fun things in life. You may feel that you’re entitled to indulge in the more enjoyable activities once in a while, but you need to keep one eye on work or school, and you’ll need to keep an eye on the finances too! You could experience a brief crisis of confidence in November, but this can easily be overcome with an image change or a make-over. By Christmas you’ll be more in control again! However, by mid- February there will be a need for caution with your finances. Temptation to spend your hard earned cash is evident, when you’ll become a little unpredictable and unreliable. Postpone important decisions if you can!

CELEBRITY GOSSIP: Kendall Jenner appears to have earned genuine respectable celebrity status now that she has in attendance at a Whitehouse correspondents dinner, The planets continue to suggest that she is the one member of the Kardashian clan who could go far!
