Aries
March 21 to April 20

But equally, the posse of planets in Aries is giving you the opportunity to initiate new approaches. And today, as Mercury moves to Taurus, you can start to quantify the value of some of the fresh approaches and thinking in a tangible way.

Your vibrant ruler Mercury will be joining you in two weeks, Gemini, and helping to bring even greater sparkle to your situation.

Libra
September 24 to October 23
You’re set to don your celestial Detective’s Mac from today, Libra, for a two-week period when your ability to probe into situations in a way that unearths all sorts of information, but also potential opportunities, is really strengthened.

Scorpio
October 24 to November 22
We live in a world where everyone’s individual opinion can actively compete for attention through social media or microblogging.

Capricorn
December 22 to January 21
You have a reputation for seriousness, Capricorn, one which very often completely fails to take into account the brilliant, dry sense of fun you have. And today, and for the next two weeks, you have a marvelous opportunity to regale people with your quick wit, irony, and amusing observations. But also, for you to express your flair, with greater panache and verve.

Aquarius
January 22 to February 19
Work from home or juggle competing demands from your abode? The next two weeks give you a chance to try to get this part of your situation running more efficiently. You may not feel as chatty, but that doesn’t mean to say that you can’t quietly reflect on where you could get things to work in a more practical, functional manner. Genealogy can also call out to you.

February 20 to March 20
Part of you has been focusing on your life foundations, and another has been bringing a fresh dimension to your home space. But a new vibrant energy from now can see life pick up speed.
