Aries
March 21 to April 20
Saturn, he planet which governs time, boundaries and self-discipline, has been urging you to narrow your focus this year, and concentrate on what is truly essential. The chances are any time you have spread yourself too thinly, your energy may have dipped. Today however, as he combines brilliantly to the Sun, your flair, and hard work and application can work in tandem, perfectly.

Taurus
April 21 to May 21
Sometimes the things we are doing out of sight, are just as influential as more obvious moves. And so it is today for you Taurus. Both Saturn and Neptune are asking to work on your inner world, dig deep into your resources, do research, and where needed bide your time. So, if you don’t feel that results are showing up, just know the foundations you are creating will count.

Gemini
May 22 to June 21
You’re an ideas person, and love sparring with others, in an often mischievous or sparky way. However today, you might find that the things you have been toying with, can start to take more form, and could see you building one plan into your future. If you this involves collaboration, better still. And whilst you sometimes be distracted, this is less likely today.

Cancer
June 22 to July 23
You are known for being instinctive, and protective, but you are a Cardinal sign, one of four, that are to do with leadership and action. And when you’re really invested around a particular goal or ambition, you can have incredible tenacity. Today could see you take a determined, and large step forwards. Ironically, you could also have a complete change of mind. A real paradox.

Leo
July 24 to August 23
With the Sun in your sign forging such a constructive tie to Saturn, you can show others that confidence and consistency make a formidable combination. If you have been working steadily towards an important goal, today’s influences suggest that people are far more likely to take your ideas and ambitions seriously. Be open to add a dash of ingenuity to the mix too!

Virgo
August 24 to September 23
You often prefer to keep your plans private until everything is in place and today supports exactly that approach. The more willing you are to trust your instincts and quietly attend to important details, the stronger your position can become, or can it? An electric energy in the most public part of your chart, could see someone try to provoke you to be more open.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
Friendships and alliances can prove especially rewarding today. Someone who shares your ambitions or outlook may provide practical encouragement, helping you turn an interesting possibility into something much more tangible. However, if you feel a plan, or a relationship, are not really what you want for the long term, you may suddenly decide to break free.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
If you’ve been quietly putting in the effort, today’s Sun-Saturn link suggests your commitment can begin to attract recognition. Your determination and willingness to shoulder responsibility may impress someone influential. Even so, the Moon’s tie with Uranus hints that another person’s unexpected decision could alter the dynamics or throw up another valuable angle.

Sagittarius
November 23 to December 21
This is an excellent day to combine your natural enthusiasm with a realistic plan. An idea that once seemed ambitious may now appear more achievable – if you tackle it one step at a time. Travel, study or publishing matters can also flow well. Romantically, someone very different could catch your attention, or will you want more personal space, Sagittarius?

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
You rarely shy away from hard work, and today’s planetary picture suggests your patience can pay dividends. Whether dealing with finances, business or an important personal matter, steady progress is possible, especially if you have your own business. However, if you find yourself flexing or multitasking, see it as a virtue, because this will become an asset now.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Relationships are highlighted in a constructive way. Whether personal or professional, a connection based on mutual respect and shared purpose can become noticeably stronger. Honest conversations are likely to achieve far more than dramatic gestures. Yet more personally, you may find yourself needing a more playful outlet or connection, and quite suddenly.

Pisces
February 20 to March 20
Sometimes small improvements create the biggest long-term results, and influences now encourage this approach. Sensible adjustments to your work, wellbeing or daily routines can make life feel much more manageable. Mind, if you have all of these areas nailed down and working really well, there’s a chance of touch of boredom can creep in. Do try to flex if so.
