You want to feel part of a group, both at work and in your leisure activities. Lucky colours are teal blue and smoky grey. Lucky numbers are 5 and 41.
 
There are fortunate influences around you but you have to get into hard working mode. A little effort will turn your luck into something long-lasting.

Favourable colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 4 and 65.

Find time to re-centre yourself. Businesslike colours are old gold and burnt sienna. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
Because of the fickle Moon you're saying things in a way that others don't entirely understand. Perhaps you need to be more reflective, because the words flow out like a flood.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 71.
 
It's a very mental day, bringing the urge to communicate on a much broader scale. Messages from abroad or from a distance away may be important for your future.

Lucky numbers are 68 and 40.

There's no point in giving up in disgust - tackle problems head on in a persistent, rational way.

Saturn hanging around you could create obstacles, setbacks and delays, so a breakdown in communications are quite likely. Auspicious colours are almond and jade. Lucky numbers are 63 and 11.
 
High voltage Mars meets sober Saturn at an awkward aspect, so problems are to be expected. If things are not going quite as well as you'd planned, just remember that patience will help.

Lucky numbers are 62 and 1.
 
Other people seem to be getting in your way, or doing things that are distinctly unhelpful, so bite your tongue.

Everything you have swept under the carpet at home or in the family wants to come out into the open. Positive colours are banana and toffee. Lucky numbers are 28 and 45.

Only unsatisfying affairs of the heart or shaky business relationships will come to grief now. Calming colours are amethyst and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 21 and 14.
 
Try to keep up your confidence at the moment. Saturn around you has a nasty habit of denting your self-esteem, so you feel that whatever it is you do isn't going to work particularly well.

Tightening your belt may be necessary for a brief while but there is nothing catastrophic about cash shortages. Favourable colours are aqua and cream. Lucky numbers are 59 and 39.
 
Channel your energy into rather narrow tasks. Focus your concentration and motivation in a self-disciplined way, then you can sort out those detailed tasks.

Lucky numbers are 18 and 43.
 
Fuming, fretting and complaining isn't getting you anywhere fast; there is a temporary road block ahead and you have to wait for it to clear, or alternatively, you could chip away at whatever stands in your path.

Positive colours are champagne and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 13.
 
You may feel life is slower and practically in reverse for a day or so. If you can resign yourself to this without becoming discouraged, then it will pass.

You feel cut off from the important people in your life just briefly - or perhaps you just see it that way.

Lucky numbers are 44 and 72.

You are spending as extravagantly as you acquire it. Try to be more disciplined and save a little so you can be more financially secure in the future. Auspicious colours are bright pink and banana. Lucky numbers are 6 and 71.
 
Everything in life seems more fortunate than usual because Jupiter, the planet which brings good luck, is moving through your sign. Even if you have problems you can find a silver lining.

Your heart is in the right place and everyone knows it - but with all the naughty planetary influences around you, they're not sure where you're coming from.

This is your day to shine without apology or self- consciousness. Most of us hide away parts of ourselves we think others might not like or approve. Throw away your inhibitions and just express who you are and what you feel. The right people will respond very positively. With the New Moon, you are inventive in your thinking and speaking at the moment, really and on the button, but you can also be absent-minded. Romantic colours are parchment and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 55.
 
If there have been family rifts or differences recently, the New Moon urges you to wipe the slate clean and start again. Don't wait to be approached - reach out and spread a little harmony. More for your sake than anything else, you want peace and calm. You can be idealistic about money now, preferring not to be bogged down in petty materialistic concerns, or feeling that money should be used for humanitarian purposes. Beneficial colours are ultramarine and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
 
New Moon, new projects for Lions. You want to give your reputation a boost and get the recognition which your talents deserve, but you know that you cannot rest on your laurels at the moment.

You are wondering whether it is wise to make long term commitments at the moment either financial or emotional. Auspicious colours are peacock blue and pale yellow. Lucky numbers are 23 and 65.
 
The Moon is your ruler, and with a New Moon, all those plans you have been mulling over in recent days can now be put into action. Write down your game plan for the next twelve months, step by step. Make some firm decisions and put them into action. In spiritual matters you will be experimenting and challenging everyone else's views. You travel your own road no matter what, and don't care what anyone else thinks or says, no matter how influential they may be. Beneficial colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 37 and 5.
 
With the New Moon there's no doubt that you need someone to make you feel whole, before you feel secure in whatever you're doing at play or at work.

Beneficial colours are peacock blue and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 73.
 
New Moon, new beginnings, so think about the next six months or even a year ahead and work out where you want to be financially, as well as emotionally.

Things are beginning to bubble to the surface or come out into the open in unexpected ways. Practical colours are chrysoberyl and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 24 and 17.
 
The New Moon creates circumstances that are right to re- organise some of your working methods. If you can tap into your strong self-discipline, you will clear up problems before they happen.

Favourable colours are strawberry and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 1 and 57.
 
Don't expect anything major today. The New Moon urges you to put your wholehearted attention behind the scenes into whatever you want to put into place over the next year.

The trick is to find positive outlets for your high energy. Beneficial colours are magenta and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 67 and 18.
 
You're self sufficient and self absorbed today. No wonder! The New Moon is in your sign now, so your personal magnetism is magnificent and any projects you start are bound to succeed.

Keep your temper under control. Beneficial colours are pale pink and purple. Lucky numbers are 7 and 5.
 
Out with the old and in with the New Moon. This is the time of year when you review your beliefs, whether it be to do with politics, education or just your philosophy of living. Your outlook doesn't remain static from childhood to old age -you constantly discard what no longer fits and take in new information which causes you to alter your approach. Let your imagination soar, and aim to paint on a broader canvas with or without the support of others. You need an independent partner, too. Expressive colours are pistachio and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 5 and 33.
 
Spreading yourself too thinly and becoming frazzled is very likely now, dear Pisces. It's not like you, but if you can become detached from your feelings and thoughts, you'll find it easier to concentrate. You are dissatisfied with practical matters and want to withdraw into your inner world. Within your cave, you can ask yourself searching questions about the meaning and purpose of life, your life. My lovely intuitive Pisces, you know the answers do not lie in the physical world, but are found in the spiritual realms. Seek. Inspirational colours are spring green and warm gold. Lucky numbers are 33 and 55.
 
Going to one extreme or the other where cash is concerned will not be helpful. Moderation is the answer.

Decide for yourself in a down to earth way just how much commitment you can give in group efforts. Businesslike colours are sepia and black. Lucky numbers are 55 and 74.
 
You will pick up subtle clues about the unspoken needs of close friends and your partner.

Don't be jealous if a friend pays more attention to someone else because it will pass very quickly. The mood is rather fickle now as things tend to be good one moment and not so good the next.

Balancing colours are jade and bronze. Lucky numbers are 8 and 3.
 
It's important that you don't let other people demand too much of you, but if you are putting out it's obviously a good idea to look after your body.

What you really really want is to be applauded by everyone, Leo! That's not unusual of course, but this is your peak time for work or community activities, so recognition comes as you strive to get your talents out on display. Romance or relationships with children are neither light-hearted nor frivolous at the moment, but a serious matter to which you devote a good deal of energy. Avoid becoming obsessed, or trying to maintain too tight a control. Advantageous colours are maroon and lime. Lucky numbers are 11 and 3.
 
Maybe you feel more vulnerable than usual with the Sun in your opposite sign, but there is support if you look. Ask for what you need, but be prepared to compromise. Find reliable, energetic pals on whom you can lean. You are keen to prove just how resourceful you can be in earning more and in negotiating skilfully. But as always you must resist the tendency to be too controlling around money, or indeed to spend compulsively. Communicative colours are butterscotch and pastel tones. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
You feel happier in your own company than usual, Gemini, but can be overwhelmed by too many people, so give yourself space. Dark Pluto is changing your closest relationships by forcing you to look below the surface to find those that are strong and lasting. Shaky bonds are more obvious, so at some point you will part company, since both of you will fight for control, and neither will be willing to compromise. Genuine bonds will strengthen under this influence. Suitable colours are mahogany and blue flame. Lucky numbers are 26 and 44.
 
You'll be thinking and talking about loftier topics than usual, as your wide-ranging mind is attracting you to fascinating new ideas. You promote pet causes to all and sundry with a great deal of evangelical zeal just now. Though in the quiet times, you are gaining an entirely new perspective on all your close emotional relationships. You'll continue digging deep to find the answers to unresolved problems from the past, which will help free you up in the days ahead. Auspicious colours are dark pink and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 30 and 60.
 
You are feeling strong, secretive and determined at the moment. There is a sense that everything you attempt will succeed. But you won't readily divulge what you're thinking, feeling or planning to any but your nearest and most intimate partners. Everyday encounters are carrying a much more significant tone for you at the moment, bringing you intense conversations, in-depth discussions, sometimes rather startling insights. You just have to watch a tendency to become rather stubborn and resist help when it is offered. Inspirational colours are peach and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 56.
 
You are keen to see that everyone pulls in the same direction, for your group energy is strong. At work you need to upgrade, regenerate or rebuild so your career brings more fulfilment and satisfaction in the days ahead. Work relationships are more intense and at times a little unco-operative, since your ideas may not meet with everyone else's approval. Stick to your guns. Practical colours are iron bark and maroon. Lucky numbers are 15 and 10.
 
Improve your intimate surroundings, water-bearers. What you need is a beautiful home with an atmosphere of taste, elegance and comfort. Friendships and team relationships are becoming more intense now, which has its upside and its downside. The true bonds in your life will become stronger, and you are also starting to move amongst more influential people. Profitable colours are buckwheat and beryl. Lucky numbers are 3 and 12.
 
Since you are working hard, you need to look after yourself physically. Treat your body well and you will be fit to crack on through the chores that are piling up. You are in the midst of a long phase of examining yourself and your life as never before. Through certain pressures and tension you can develop a depth of self understanding and grow as a human being in ways you could not have imagined. Confident colours are kiwifruit and fiery red. Lucky numbers are 28 and 11.
 
A real party animal at the moment, you play spontaneously and won't settle for dull routine or follow orders easily. Feeling happy go lucky, outgoing and romantic, you want to allow your exuberance out on display as much as possible. Though in the quiet times, you are finding, through unexpected encounters or situations, that you are a good deal more resourceful, resilient and a richer personality that you had imagined. You are growing enormously in self-awareness and understanding. Favourable colours are silvery grey and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 22.
 
Lay down plans for the next twelve months, Taurus. Get cracking with this and once you have got yourself together, you can concentrate on close relationships. Money is a tricky subject at the moment so you do need to be absolutely straightforward in your dealings and avoid any connections with unsavoury people. You do not have total control, so soft-pedal a little on demands. Lucky colours are pale green and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 29 and 1.
 
More letters and phone calls than usual keep you on your toes, and short distance trips keep boredom at bay. You may be skimming the surface and cutting corners, since there will be less time for attention to detail than usual. As you are questioning everything at the moment, you need to slow down at times to reflect. You are searching for a career or life's direction which will bring you a deeper sense of purpose. Auspicious colours are apricot and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 54 and 48.
 
The key thing is to learn the lessons of handling cash successfully. Are you flashing it around a little too extravagantly, to boost your self esteem? It's all very well to impress everyone, but try to save for security as well. Intense encounters, discussions or differences of opinion are in the stars. This will challenge your beliefs but that is no bad thing as long if you can abandon views which have outlived their usefulness. Profitable colours are fawn and raw sugar. Lucky numbers are 31 and 56.
 
There is a renewed sense of energy after the recent delays you have been experiencing. In an unusually vocal mood, you'll be inclined to shout your opinions from the rooftops. Nothing will distract you from the essentials and you will cope admirably with practical situations. It may not be particularly passionate or very exciting, but you will be pleased with what you have accomplished. Practical colours are bottle green and lemon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.
 
You are attracted to highly energetic companions at the moment and you'll achieve a great deal in joint efforts if you can stop arguing between yourselves. Let a blast of fresh air blow through just to get rid of cobwebs. Your moods will be erratic and unpredictable for a few days and you find it very difficult to sit still for long. It would be a good idea to reorganise at home or stir up a bit of action elsewhere. Auspicious colours are amethyst and golden brown. Lucky numbers are 2 and 62.
 
You are firing on all cylinders at the moment, sorting out long- term plans and actively seeking supportive friends. Though others will find you a curious mix of tolerance and obstinacy. Unexpected events at home and elsewhere will keep you on your toes, and rather wound up. You will get edgy if anyone tries to control you, order you around or becomes jealous. You do want the freedom to express who you are and be more spontaneous. Beneficial colours are aqua and platinum. Lucky numbers are 3 and 45.
 
In a manic few weeks ahead you will find yourself rushing all over the place. Pause for breath once in a while, Bulls. Minor accidents are possible if you do not take care. But use this high- energy time well as it can waken your ideas up. You will be restless and in no mood for settling down and attending to routine chores. Indeed it may be a something of a roller-coaster ride for you. Opportune colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 2 and 12.
 
Your boisterousness will see you bouncing back into life in a major way, but around children or those under your care you could be a little bossy. At work you want to take on more responsibility, so you can show what you are made of. You are more self-disciplined than usual which should rub off on workmates, who'll pitch in with enthusiasm. Beneficial colours are rust red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 4 and 46.
 
Feeling frustrated? It seems almost impossible at this time to act directly in an up-front manner. Your instinct to put yourself into forward gear feels blocked, which could make you angry. Blame it on the stars and remember this is only a temporary phase. Soon you will be able to channel your abundance of red-hot energy into constructive directions. And then you will definitely achieve a great deal. Empowering colours are mauve and sandstone. Lucky numbers are 28 and 15.
 
You may feel temporarily stuck with certain projects, but there is no sense in getting over-agitated. Today you find yourself in higher gear, so throw this strong energy into re-organising the house. Get things into shape, but do beware a tendency to be a little too sharp, as you could hurt sensitive feelings. See what you can do in a positive spirit that will make a difference. Auspicious colours are spanish leather and black onyx. Lucky numbers are 15 and 64.
 
Life may seem a little slow going for you just now, with a lot of aggravation behind the scenes. But the main thing to remember is that this is a time of major change in your life. The harder you struggle, the greater your rewards will be in the future. You have a lot of energy for improving your surroundings or life situations. Move cautiously and try using tact to achieve the best results. Auspicious colours are carnelian and graphite. Lucky numbers are 13 and 50.
 
Less praise is coming your way than you might wish, but you can take pride in what you do for its own sake. Be your own morale booster. Just remember to throw as much energy and attention towards keeping fit as you do to working hard. You could be untidy and rather careless and for a short while find yourself in an exceptionally lazy mood. Appropriate colours are periwinkle and mustard. Lucky numbers are 11 and 2.
 
The planetary influences help the Crab on two levels. Mars makes you more competitive and energetic than usual, so take pleasure in the hard work you will be capable of for a while. Allow yourself to do what timidity has prevented in the past. Plus, you will be able to find a good balance between feelings and duty, as you gain control of one particular practical situation. Profitable colours are steely grey and red coral. Lucky numbers are 9 and 56.
 
Try to find a little tact as a counter balance to your ambition, and sweep companions up in your enthusiasm. You will be able to enjoy praise for your accomplishments soon. Luckily today Jupiter will bring sweetness and light to your domestic life. But you are likely to over indulge and expand as a result. And you will also be thoroughly and gloriously lazy. But it might be a good time to mull over old memories in the peaceful moments. Empowering colours are ruby red and navy. Lucky numbers are 7 and 46.
 
The next few weeks can see you achieve your aims and will be competitive when it comes to earning more. You want the spending power to be more flamboyant as well as needing the long-term security which a nestegg brings. If you expect everything at home and in your emotional life to be totally perfect you could be setting yourself up for a letdown with unrealistic expectations. Bold colours are amber and crimson. Lucky numbers are 42 and 5.
 
In two minds about almost everything, Taurus? You aren't clear about whether to follow your head or your heart. If you want more prominence and acclaim, you need to do things that draw other people's attention to you, so try to do what suits the influential people at work or out in your community. Cater for their needs rather than your own, then you will get all the compliments you want. Expressive colours are gunmetal grey and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 37.
 
You won't sit still and co-operate easily with others now. Everyone seems to be marching to a different drumbeat and you may be feeling a bit discouraged or low in self-esteem for no particular reason. Don't make the mistake of assuming that being left to your own devices is a sign that you are unloved. Instead treat it as a blessing in disguise and take advantage of this opportunity for a bit of emotional free space. Favourable colours are pearly grey and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 5 and 45.
 
You are trying to go in two opposite directions at once, alternating between duty and inclination. Following your whims will give you a guilty conscience, but being dutiful will make you feel hard done by. You will be promoting yourself in a very strong way and flirtatiously seeking to be in the limelight. There will be more emotional depth in relationships with loved ones, whether it's children, adults or indeed social companions. Balancing colours are mustard and silver. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
Let's not be too sugary sweet on the surface, Archers. It's not your style. Be more honest about your real inner feelings. Seek beauty or luxury at home, where your appetite may be more tempted than usual. If your words are spilling out all over the place, other people may miss out on the sense. Stand back and try to come to a few conclusions before you leap back out again. Auspicious colours are marmalade and silver brocade. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
You have strong feelings, which you keep firmly to yourself. Even close companions find it difficult to know quite what runs below the surface. Fortunately one old resentment has finally been put to rest. Even if you are on your own for a little while, it won't actually bother you, for you need to avoid being overwhelmed by the outside world. Calm down and get away from any hassle and aggravation. Favourable colours are magnolia and red wine. Lucky numbers are 2 and 7.
 
Your defences could be low, so you need to protect yourself better. You are in a restless mood and your interests will ebb and flow like the tide. Seek protective friends who are more practical than you are capable of being just now. You are sensitive to the undercurrents in the emotional atmosphere, which makes you more sympathetic but can also make you confused at times. Prosperous colours are green apple and red carnation. Lucky numbers are 11 and 15.
 
Partners can be troublesome today, Leo. Who do they think they are, anyway? You intuitively understand the feelings and emotional situations around you, but be careful that you are not getting too close to things. Try not to get jealous and possessive if they aren't fitting in with what you want. Just move over and get in step with them. Auspicious colours are burgundy and sassafras. Lucky numbers are 15 and 31.
 
You're feeling lacklustre, day-dreamy and certainly not in the mood for anything practical. Concentration and motivation may be lacking so give yourself a break; get the right kind of emotional contact with friends and other people. This is your time to set the agenda for the next twenty-eight days and whoever is around can help you sort out your options. Romantic colours are rusty brown and red. Lucky numbers are 8 and 16.
 
There will be some blips at work and in friendships today, dear Cancer. Get down into the depths to investigate and find the long-term solutions. It may be to do with financial or emotional matters. Or perhaps the more fundamental questions you are asking of yourself at this time. Propitious colours are blueberry and peach. Lucky numbers are 11 and 42.
 
In a restless mood, you want to be anywhere other than where you are. If you feel trapped, go talk to more adventurous people or find something to read that will stretch your mind. At home you'll be able to sort out quite a few situations that have been bugging you for some time. This is the ideal time for cleaning out, re-organising and generally unravelling muddles. Get back in control. Effective colours are egg yolk and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 27 and 52.
 
Your emotions may be getting in the way of reason because you're not thinking as clearly as usual. You may be talking incessantly about trivia, so mates can't always follow your drift. Sort out your priorities and decide what really is of value to you. At this time you might be tempted to think that money is the only thing that matters. But there are other things which hold interest for you which can lift your spirits when you are low. Advantageous colours are mulberry and cream. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
Don't tell white lies to keep the peace as they will come out at the wrong time, in the wrong way. It's best to be as straightforward as possible. Don't tell white lies to keep the peace, since they will only come out in the open, at the wrong time, in the wrong way. This is a couple of days when other people will demand a lot of you. If you feel a bit emotionally squashed because of that, try and give yourself a few tiny treats through the day. Favourable colours are almond blossom and dark green. Lucky numbers are 7 and 49.
 
Get your feelings out into the open, Aquarius. Though it might go against your natural grain, be openly affectionate, make that phone call you have been putting off. Smooth over disagreements and iron out any wrinkles. In a searching mood, use your talent for research to ferret out fascinating bits of information. Your mind is razor sharp. Beneficial colours are lavender and crimson. Lucky numbers are 6 and 9.
 
Positive planetary influences make you feel friendly towards almost everyone you meet now. You will be wonderfully diplomatic. You will be writing the letters you've been leaving to one side and pouring oil on troubled waters. And telling the wonderful people in your life how positively you feel about them. You need to be able to talk things through with close mates and the channels of communication are flowing more smoothly now. Favourable colours are silvery grey and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 66.
 
Look up some friends and have a good time. You are a real chatterbox now, lively and enthusiastic, determined to get your ideas and opinions across to everyone in sight. Your mind will race ahead of you, leaping from subject to subject at computer speed, so slower companions may have problems keeping up. Suitable colours are russet and mustard. Lucky numbers are 11 and 36.
 
It's a superficial, frivolous sort of day, dear Scorpions. Not a time to do anything too heavy. Seek out friends who are elegant and fun, and even a bit trivial. Take a break when you can to relax and enjoy yourself. In touch with your feelings, you can reach out to others. Restrain that cool, clinical eye, and do not insist on absolute perfection. Enjoy! Relaxing colours are plum and amber. Lucky numbers are 10 and 11.
 
Any sort of group exercise would suit you now, Sagittarius, as you cruise through good feelings and some self-indulgence. But it's important not to be pushed around. If you compromise for the sake of fitting in, you'll get cross because you've not been true to yourself. Expressing your feelings is less of a problem than usual. Watch you're not speaking for the effect on others, rather than the actual content. Appropriate colours are blue sapphire and red coral. Lucky numbers are 1 and 10.
 
This is a time when you will be able to tell other people what you feel about them in a very positive way. You want to appreciate beauty, listen to music or maybe even go off to write a poem. There is a danger that your thinking could be a little biased about one particular situation, so be clear before you speak out because your emotions could be colouring your judgement. Fortuitous colours are plum and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 44.
 
If you are able to talk about your feelings to loved ones and close associates, they'll respond positively. And you will probably receive back what you have given out. Financially you will negotiate well at this time. Not because you are especially practical, but because you are exceedingly charming and persuasive. You are handling discreet information well now, attracting secrets from others without even appearing to ask. Delightful colours are dark purple and mustard. Lucky numbers are 6 and 33.
 
Planetary influences make everything to run more harmoniously. You feel inclined to glide over unpleasant edges, slide around awkward situations and move towards the people you really enjoy. Your thinking is running along more practical lines than usual. You want to see a tangible result for your efforts, so a disciplined approach and clear vision will make projects at work run smoothly. Balancing colours are apricot and treacle. Lucky numbers are 7 and 24.
 
You long to be surrounded by elegance, sophistication and good taste, so make the effort to get out into the park to appreciate the flowers. Find something beautiful in terms of art or even just beautiful people. Forthright in your own highly individualistic way, you could not care less what tradition thinks or says. Seek out younger mates, since they are forward-looking and not stuck in a rut. Inspirational colours are buttercup and celery. Lucky numbers are 16 and 51.
 
You won't stand up for yourself very well, Pisces, because you would rather everything was smooth and harmonious. Compromise and fit in with other people to get rid of tensions. You are more inclined to read the fine print in money matters, being quite pernickety about the tiny details. Your thinking is practical and conservative, which means that you come up with productive ideas. Favourable colours are bright red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 8 and 69.
 
Bring a little beauty and romance into your day and share around your good feelings. You will find it easier to express words and feelings in a way that have nothing to do with logic. Make the effort to go on a short trip, since it could bring you happiness. The more you talk to loved ones the more you will understand yourself. You need a chance to let old memories come up from the past, in order to settle them more happily in your mind. Beneficial colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 22 and 15.
 
You want to fit in for the sake of peace and quiet, so will compromise to mend fences. If there have been arguments, this is the time to put the right word in the right ear. Suddenly everything will calm itself down. But your outlook is not very practical and you may be swept up in your enthusiasms to the point where you lose touch with what is possible. Keep your feet on the ground and be realistic. Appropriate colours are red brick and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 19 and 46.
 
You may be accused of being a jack-of-all-trades because you are not sticking to any one interest for long. But your curiosity is sending you off in all directions at once asking questions. If you were to pause for long enough and ask yourself what you really need, the answer would be different. Be honest and admit that domestic and family security is more important to you than anything else. Expressive colours are fire engine red and bright green. Lucky numbers are 69 and 40.
 
You are mulling over the philosophy of life, pondering upon those belief systems that guide your actions. Quite the armchair philosopher at the moment you are thinking deeply about your goals and want to swap ideas with friends. You may appear thoughtful and even silent at first, but your mind is highly active behind your rather defensive exterior. Your secrecy has a good reason, and you want time to consider before disclosing what you know or feel. Ideal colours are emerald green and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 53.
 
Influential people are impressed with your wit, wisdom and articulate way of expressing yourself, Cancer. So keep talking! You need to be part of the crowd, both at work and in your leisure activities. See what you can do in however small a way to improve society as the planets urge you to throw your energy into helpful causes. You adore swapping your inspired ideas with friends, challenging each other to discover new truths. Uplifting colours are marigold and red. Lucky numbers are 7 and 49.
 
Bright friends and stimulating discussions are a must in your life now, dear Gemini. You do have wonderfully inventive ideas that get right to the truth of the matter, but with the Sun in your twelfth house, this is your time in the year to step back, take stock, recharge your batteries and let others do the running around. You are sensitive to atmospheres just now, so protect yourself against gloom and dejection. Communicative colours are peach and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 35 and 42.
 
You feel dramatic, colourful, flamboyant, and make great efforts to ensure you have an appreciative audience. On the other hand the Sun has two weeks to go in your house of work and health, so you must knuckle down dutifully to do as much as possible. You need to be fitter, so review your physical lifestyle, and see whether you could improve your diet, take more exercise or rest. Opportune colours are buckwheat and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 27 and 43.
 
Flying solo makes you feel exposed, so you need companionship. Your diplomatic skills and way of shining your attention on others keeps you much appreciated. You have a specially wonderful way now of entertaining others and keeping them amused. Togetherness is the key to your happiness both at home and at work. You might well be informing yourself and talking a great deal about all fitness, diet and health matters. Resourceful colours are nutmeg and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 11 and 15.
 
You will be happier with your feet up at home reading a book, or involved in family discussions today, rather than racing around. Review your work and see which commitments you can unload for a few days. Children and loved ones will bring you more pleasure than usual and you will thoroughly enjoy playing their games. Give yourself permission to be more dramatic, fun loving and attention seeking than usual. You'll get back to the grindstone with more enthusiasm afterwards. Opportune colours are daffodil yellow and bright orange. Lucky numbers are 8 and 44.
 
With your birthday Sun active for another couple of weeks, you are bouncing with more enthusiasm and gusto than usual. Having been held back recently by setbacks, delays or just low energy and less motivation you can forge ahead at last. But when you slow down, you'll also be a sympathetic listener, subtly tuned into the emotional undercurrents. Trust your hunches which more often than not turn out to be accurate. Financial benefits come your way. Soothing colours are sandstone and celadon. Lucky numbers are 10 and 31.
 
Your partner really wants to hear what you have to say at the moment. You have a sensible view of your joint situation and can sort out tangles faster than most. You will be concentrating on confidential matters, both financial and emotional. This could make you come across as stubborn, insisting on sticking to your own plans. You do need to stand your ground but you also need to be flexible, and compromise where necessary to get agreement. Stabilising colours are terracotta and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 43 and 24.
 
You are preoccupied with money matters at the moment, because you may need to sing for your supper. However, the more you talk the more you will earn, and with the Sun in your third house of communication and creativity for a while, you are chatting nineteen to the dozen. Your routine is busier than usual, so you have a tendency to skip details, since you are pulled in different directions. Opportune colours are bright yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 6 and 78.
 
In a restless, grasshopper mood, you won't stand still for long. Chattering constantly about a wider range of topics than usual, you tend to shy clear of anything too emotional. You can earn more money for a few weeks, or manage your money more sensibly. With the planetary influences on your sign, ironically your spending could spiral out of control. Rams should be careful. Creative colours are magenta and neon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 6.
 
Tolerant, expansive and enthusiastic, you express yourself confidently. Full of Leonine bravado, co-workers find you inspiring, though at times you just might promise more than you can deliver. Still, you're a good motivator and your input will be appreciated. With the blazing Sun at the peak of your chart, your popularity soars. More ambitious than usual, you're keen to be noticed, so aim for a more prominent position. Advantageous colours are slate and rose. Lucky numbers are 5 and 6.
 
You're emotional in the way you connect to people, reaching out and expecting friendship in return. You want relationships that are quite deep, and connections that mean something to you. Just don't get too wrapped up in your own feelings and forget to ask what others are wanting. There's a spontaneous, exuberant, boisterous mood in the air as far as you are concerned. So you'll let it all hang out in a way, and step happily into the spotlight. Favourable colours are antique gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 2 and 12.
 
The Moon is now moving through your house of friends and future plans, so surround yourself with team mates, colleagues and companions - the more the merrier! If you are part of a group energy you'll get oodles of support and a few helpful hints. However, you are tempted to be restless and fickle, never staying in one place for long. Consider your various options. Peaceful colours are pale gold and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 43 and 67.
 
Are you talking non-stop, Scorpio? With the ambitious Moon in your third house you're very communicative and can make many contacts that will prove useful for the future. If you are over-emotional about certain things, you are too close to what you're on about. Your heart is certainly in the right place, but your brain may be in the wrong gear. Pause for thought every so often. If you can see everything in perspective, you'll cope better. Balancing colours are mulberry and barley bread. Lucky numbers are 12 and 66.
 
The Moon in your house of work and health inclines you to work hard and attend to your duties. You need to boost your stamina by looking after yourself, because your emotions will be tied up with your working situation, and indeed with your health. If you're feeling upset, take care of the old bod. Remember to eat well, rest, relax, exercise properly, and take better care of yourself. Positive colours are buttercup and rose. Lucky numbers are 10 and 6.
 
You need another self in whatever you are doing today, at home or at work. It is very much a togetherness kind of feeling. There's the odd confrontation through the day, not because you're assertive, but you just feel a little over-emotional. If you do stir up a problem, don't go too far. You will not really want to see it through and at the end of it all you'll wish you hadn't bothered. Prosperous colours are golden brown and pale blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 21.
 
Let yourself be indulged by others and make some time for the things you really like. Your mood is fickle so you need people who will let you lean on them, yet still be allowed to fly free. Look for reassuring companions who will give you more help and support than usual and be an anchor for you. Avoid overeating, because you will pamper yourself a bit, but don't overreact to certain situations. Harmonious colours are aubergine and ochre. Lucky numbers are 77 and 5.
 
You feel like pulling back from company and too much rushing around. Protect your emotional state and find a chance to mull over highly personal matters. Play your cards close to your chest. Companions are also preoccupied, as they are all tied up in what they are doing. You might just disappear into your own space to think things through. Effective colours are amethyst and indigo. Lucky numbers are 7 and 12.
 
The secretive Moon slips into the deepest part of your chart, so play your cards close to your chest. It's emotionally more intense than usual, so don't magnify certain situations or comments into something bigger than they are. You will not take your emotional life lightly. Intensity is what you crave and passion runs deep. Alluring colours are lapis lazuli and alizarin crimson. Lucky numbers are 9 and 4.
 
Your feelings are more on public display than usual, Aries. At work you are more scattered, but you'll find the right support. Don't over-react, hearing slights where none exist. You have to stand steady for other people and be an anchor. You may come across as cool and detached when emotional intimacy is demanded today, but that's because your attention is focused elsewhere, on more practical matters. Communicative colours are lime and pink. Lucky numbers are 36 and 10.
 
The comforting Moon is in your house of personal finances, so to be happy to have your money in order and the budget balanced. Emotional security will come from material security. But what you really want are luxuries, and presents... Are you too attached to the good things? Perhaps its time to give yourself a treat. It can make you a touch possessive, so you have to look more laid back than you will feel. Auspicious colours are peach and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 25.
 
The Moon is travelling through your chart area of home and family matters for a couple of days so you'll want to draw back from too much hustle and hassle at work. Really you would be happiest with your feet up in familiar surroundings. It's clearly a good time to retreat and have a little bit of peace and quiet, as well as some privacy. Self- protective and sensitive, you want to cling on to loved ones or familiar surroundings. Auspicious colours are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 72.
 
You have a great urge to get away from routine, tedious chores, boring people and fly a little bit higher. Broaden your horizons, however you can. Travel would suit you best but there are other ways to keep your interest engaged. Take the bird's eye view rather than being sunk in minutiae and detail. Look ahead, you can make some prophetic choices. Suitable colours are hessonite and lilac. Lucky numbers are 75 and 42.
 
Your long-term security becomes more important than usual. Acquiring more money is top priority, so fight to defend your rights and get your due rewards. Passionate Mars makes you unusually intense and rather sensual, so finding pleasure will be high on your list. Do not be too impulsive or reckless in taking on new commitments just to impress other people, but steer the middle course. Empowering colours are emerald and warm gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 33.
 
Over the next few weeks, you don't intend to let the grass grow under your feet, so you will be setting your goals for the future very determinedly. Friends and team mates will pitch in with useful suggestions and advice. You like to think of yourself as a good team player but at points you find your patience is tested. In a tight corner you will prefer to be the one making the group decisions but really you'd be best to compromise. Auspicious colours are amethyst and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 3 and 77.
 
With Jupiter on the move, you can extract yourself from the quagmire. Lift your life out of the rut and get away from routines. Travel is unusually attractive, so start planning. Just watch you do not cram too much into your schedule. You can be a touch strong in your opinions, since you feel rather evangelical. Luckily your truthful and straightforward approach should catch general enthusiasm. Communicative colours are sapphire and ivy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 6.
 
Lions can expect a slow, slightly frustrating few weeks ahead, as Mars stalks into your twelfth house. You will achieve little by direct action or confrontation and the harder you push the less you may succeed. It would be best to develop patience. Others can be made to dance to your tune, but only if you exercise diplomacy. Why is your anger so trapped? Find out why certain of your actions are self-defeating. Empowering colours are fire engine red and golden hessonite. Lucky numbers are 10 and 13.
 
You are intensely involved in your intimate relationships until the end of June. It may feel like a struggle and you could be intensely frustrated at points because of slow progress and other people's obstinacy. But you need to aim for greater security, emotional and financial. Reach compromise agreements which are fair to all concerned. Anyone who tries to double-cross or let you down will not be forgiven in a hurry. Auspicious colours are charcoal grey and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 6 and 37.
 
With Mars moving into your sign for a few weeks, you move into higher gear. Obstacles will be swept aside, and people who oppose you will get short shrift. Your temper is not likely to be at its smoothest, but a blunt approach is what is needed to achieve your aims. Just watch that your impulsiveness doesn't lead you into trouble. Remember the old saying, 'fools rush in where angels fear to tread'. Harmonious colours are terracotta and cream. Lucky numbers are 15 and 1.
 
Your health should feel less strained from today as Mars moves into Cancer. Partners will be energetic and at times quite fiery so stay on your toes. Throw your energy into joint co-operative ventures. If you pull together you can achieve a great deal more than you would solo, and it will also avoid those eyeball-to-eyeball confrontations that waste good energy. Sell yourself with more vigour. Positive colours are silver and lavender. Lucky numbers are 4 and 13.
 
Now you intend to put all your grand plans into gear. You'll be working hard and promoting your ambitions over coming weeks. No one will accuse you of lacking courage or being too timid as you push rivals out of the way. You intend to make your mark. Boss figures may find you a little threatening as you obviously intend to take over the decision making role. Be aware that charging ahead in a headstrong way could run you into problems. Ideal colours are terracotta and mustard. Lucky numbers are 7 and 31.
 
As macho Mars strides into your sixth house you could be irritable and rather too demanding for relationships at work to run smoothly. Go your own independent way and take satisfaction in a job being well done. Watch health since things could get a little over- heated, even accident-prone at times. Slow down a touch and strive to be more objective. Put as much attention into getting your body fit as you do towards practical work matters and all will go well. Suitable colours are red coral and silver. Lucky numbers are 9 and 12.
 
Warrior Mars, your life-ruler, is now stomping through one of your emotional houses, so you feel restless and irritable without knowing why. Try not to take that ill-humour out on family or loved ones. Community meetings are favoured, as you'll be well received, especially if you're on the podium. The planets make you very creative now, and your original slant is just what people need. Advantageous colours are fiery red and golden rod. Lucky numbers are 57 and 27.
 
With Mars dancing into Cancer, your physical energy and passionate enthusiasm will soar and you will demand the right to be yourself. No one is going to be pushing you into a corner and demand that you do your duty. Indulgence, relaxation and finding your place in the spotlight will be your main aims for the next few weeks. Do not take too many risks if you are sporty since Mars can be a rather headstrong energy. Beneficial colours are platinum and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 38.
 
In a busy few weeks you'll be direct, outspoken but not always tactful. Writing letters, making phone calls and holding discussions will fill your schedule. Head straight for heated debates and controversies with the glint of battle in your eye. You will not suffer fools gladly and may be a little too blunt or sarcastic at times. Have a care when travelling. Slow down, take a few breaths and all should be well. Empowering colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 18 and 19.
 
Your personal confidence is given a boost by the Planets now, so make the most of it. You will come across as enthusiastic and idealistic. But you need to give each other much more space in emotional partnerships. Possessiveness on one side will only result in the other person flying for freedom. There may be disruptions because of rebellions against ties and commitments. Shaky partnerships may go to the wall, but long-running ones will strengthen through this time of change and upheaval. Beneficial colours are lilac and golden tan. Lucky numbers are 55 and 2.
 
Your open, friendly and enthusiastic manner is attracting a really positive response. There is a danger you could become narrowminded if you get too involved in pet causes, but your uncanny knack of seeing what will happen in the future is pointing you in the right direction. Your thoughts tend to go off in ten different directions at once. Don't overpack your schedule or get too wound up. Fortunate colours are apricot and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 13 and 56.
 
You should be feeling healthier now, and able to sort out ailments faster than usual. Over-indulgence is a real danger, so don't let that diet slide for lack of willpower. This is a time of tension as you explore the past and bring to light what you've kept out of sight for many years. But you'll feel more solid, with more energy by the end of this phase. If you've been sweeping things under the carpet for too long, this will liberate you. Expressive colours are charcoal grey and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 66 and 18.
 
Money comes more easily than usual now through joint ventures. This is either because of your partner's generosity at home or through work, but don't take other people's generosity for granted. Try to discover what other things hold value for you in life apart from money. Your old priorities have been swept away so you need to find new ones that have personal meaning for you. Beneficial colours are smoky quartz and ebony. Lucky numbers are 8 and 30.
 
Your confidence with money inspires colleagues, who see you as honest and successful. Watch a tendency to be over-optimistic, as you're not thinking through the practical consequences of financial schemes. Don't let your enthusiasm carry you off into unrealistic areas. Joint finances are unpredictable. Larger than usual lump sums flow in and out of the household accounts or at work. Protective colours are tangerine and white. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
You love being surrounded by those you trust most and your talent for organising an easy atmosphere is helping improve your family relationships. Expect sudden changes in your career or life direction now. You must be free to express your individuality. This isn't a time to follow orders or fit in with other people's plans. It's a challenging and slightly insecure time when events keep you on your toes. Balancing colours are warm tan and magnolia. Lucky numbers are 11 and 30.
 
You seem genuinely happy with your own company and will be content to reflect on your thoughts. You are radiating an inner peace that others envy. But if there is someone close by in need, you will be understanding of their problems. And because you are tuned in at a deeper level than usual, your sympathy will hit the right spot. At work you will not want to fit in with other people's orders or instructions. You must find yourself a niche where you can have more elbow room. Uplifting colours are myrtle and pepper. Lucky numbers are 37 and 74.
 
This is a good time to get involved in team situations. As Jupiter turns direct, your confidence and lively enthusiasm inspires everyone, and you are more than happy to enjoy a wide circle of friends and acquaintances. But your lovelife is unpredictable and highly changeable. New romantic affairs are very switch-on/switch-off, though exciting. Nothing feels secure or long-lasting, but it certainly won't be boring. Dramatic colours are purple and musk. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.
 
Your ability to observe and your way with words make others see you as someone in the know. Your ideas on life are changing dramatically now and you find yourself open to unconventional even radical opinions. Your friends will be amazed at this change in your outlook. You may be taken aback by certain events that blow up suddenly, but at heart you really thrive on excitement. Just keep that highly-strung nervous system well in hand. Auspicious colours are bright red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 3 and 32.
 
You should be able to settle old differences amicably now and see clearly which relationships in your life can develop further. Those which have outlived their time and have no potential for further growth will be quietly dropped with a minimum of fuss. New and better friendships or romances will arrive to take their place. Companions will notice a new spirit of defiance in you, as you insist on going your own highly individualistic way. Auspicious colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 4 and 40.
 
Your creative talents definitely need to be given an outlet. You have the confidence and the opportunity now, so listen to your intuition and let your inner visions live out in the world. You will also be seeking out new friends since old ones will seem rather dull. But don't expect total reliability from new teammates as they will prove stubbornly individualistic. You will be both challenged and enlivened by group activities. Balancing colours are silver grey and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 13.
 
Your reputation is important to you now and you want to be respected. Everyone recognises that you are straightforward in your intentions, but in your heart of hearts you know you need to change certain aspects of your emotional or domestic life. Clear the way for what will bring more fulfilment in the future. If some long-running relationships seem to be separating temporarily, it doesn't mean they'll disappear forever. Auspicious colours are dark purple and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 14 and 73.
 
Feeling vague? Low in concentration and energy? Psychologically you are not in a mood to get a grip or be confrontational. So coast along and leave practical chores for another day. Don't be disappointed that your efforts at work are not meeting with more acclaim, but you are just not pushing as hard as usual. Don't let uncertainty about your aims get in the way. Let your intuition point you in the right direction. Balancing colours are amethyst and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 6 and 43.
 
You won't want to do anything physically strenuous for a day or so. Pamper and protect yourself. Focus in on the activities or companions who make you feel good. You really would much prefer to escape into your inner dream world. Give yourself quiet time to reflect and question, but try not to lose touch with what's going on around you. If you overlook things you may have to backtrack at a later date, which would be a bore. Beneficial colours are dark blue and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 8 and 76.
 
Follow your hunches, but don't put certain people on pedestals - you know who I mean. If you expect miracles, you will end up feeling very disappointed. Be realistic Aries, they're only human after all. There's confusion over future plans. You are dithering because you don't want to commit yourself in case something better turns up. You could be missing good opportunities this way. Inspirational colours are snow white and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 71 and 38.
 
You find yourself in a more self-sacrificing frame of mind today, but it's important not to become a martyr. If relationships are confusing, you need to be more straightforward, even if it takes a big effort to push yourself into gear. You're unsure what you want your commitments to be, either at home or at work, but you could find that those closest to you are in exactly the same frame of mind. Subtle colours are mixed shades and maroon. Lucky numbers are 17 and 71.
 
Relationships may be confusing, but face up to an unpleasant situation. Work out whether the muddle is deliberate, as someone may be trying to be evasive. Double-check all arrangements meticulously. Confusion surrounds travel plans, now or in the future, so sort it out at this stage, even though you may not feel like tackling practical projects. If someone has made a mistake, remember to be kind. Fortunate colours are taupe and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 8 and 3.
 
This is not the day to tackle any simmering resentments, as you don't feel strong enough to insist on getting your own way. Nor is it a great time for business matters or anything that requires attention to detail. Your need to be sympathetic and generous could get in the way of common sense. Being concerned with material matters is beneath you at the moment, but keep your feet on the ground. Alluring colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 63.
 
There's confusion all around you today, but it's also a very compassionate and sensitive day. You will be more aware of other people's needs. But don't let sentimentality pull you into being over generous. Put your ideals first at work and you will find that the rewards flow in more readily. Though you may feel disappointed in the attitude of certain team mates. But try not to be too perfectionist or critical. Appropriate colours are blood red and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 7 and 16.
 
Putting down limits may not be easy, but don't let a tug on your heart strings lead you down a road that turns out to be a blind alley. You could be offering help to people who are just taking advantage of you. Make sure you are not being a martyr to save others. A family member or loved one may be over-inclined to lean on you during this time. Be firm and make them stand on their own two feet. Auspicious colours are snow white and bone. Lucky numbers are 6 and 15.
 
Don't get panicky because everything is not going to plan. The planetary influences for a short while aren't good at boosting your ego. They will slow you down, but this could be to your advantage. Just go with the flow. You may find it difficult to communicate clearly with others, so double-check all travel arrangements and any kind of detailed instructions. And make sure the advice you are getting is reliable. Favourable colours are apple blossom and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 68 and 13.
 
If you feel you are being undermined, or that certain plans are dissolving under your feet, the best thing is to wait for everything to become clearer. After a couple of days you will be much more decisive about how to cope. You really do not want to go flying into robust discussions just yet. You don't know how you want to appear to others, or indeed what you really want for yourself. Protective colours are bright vermilion and glossy obsidian. Lucky numbers are 5 and 32.
 
Today can be a wonderfully sensitive, spiritual and creative time, but it's not very practical. So it's important to keep your imagination under control and keep double-checking that you're being realistic. Emotional muddles may be difficult to clear up at this time and you could find loved ones evasive. On the bright side, your sense of sympathy is extremely strong and your sense of mystery will attract romantic admirers. Beneficial colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 3 and 42.
 
This is not a great day for self-confidence or taking direct action, so just let yourself slide around things. Watch you are not misled by vague hunches, or by information coming from others. Your life is changing slowly at a subtle level due to the influence of nebulous Neptune, so you may feel rather undermined. This is all part of the process of moving towards different values, better securities and more realistic commitments. Beneficial colours are sapphire and ruby. Lucky numbers are 5 and 22.
 
Seek balance and variety in your life. Take time with loved ones but also with casual acquaintances. You need to sort out a situation in a sensible way and take constructive steps to find the information this will require. Is there a mystery that you want to get to the bottom of? Get below the surface layer of reality, right down to the essence of things. Ideal colours are smoky quartz and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 1 and 15.
 
Finding the balance between duty and pleasure is on your mind right now. You know you can't be an island unto yourself but equally you don't want to be pushed and pulled around by other people. Be honest and careful under this eclipse, so that the influences today can be more helpful. Keeping detached and unemotional will definitely be the key to success. Favourable colours are carmine and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 12 and 5.
 
Find a better balance between head and heart. Success in the outer world won't be fulfilling unless you have a settled emotional base. But equally you can't find all your satisfaction in your intimate environment. This is a good time for meaningful encounters and conversations, but you need to pay more attention to other people. The more you hear what they have to say, the better it will be for you in the long run. Empowering colours are terracotta and honey. Lucky numbers are 7 and 8.
 
Friends pull you one way and loved ones another, dear Cancer. This lunar eclipse urges you to divide your attention so as to satisfy everyone. You have been spending more time recently with a wider circle of acquaintances, so more intimate companions have been feeling excluded. You are thinking more deeply than usual and talking in a penetrating way, but you come across as being more forceful than you intend. Subtle colours are pinky orange and burnt umber. Lucky numbers are 6 and 15.
 
If your partner is not on your wavelength you can cajole them into fitting in with what you have in mind. If you have to compromise to get a response, it will be worth it. Be careful how you handle things today. It's important not to become obsessed with one matter, so focused on the detail that you can't see the broad picture. If you look too deeply into it, you may get a bit gloomy. Auspicious colours are terracotta and dark grey. Lucky numbers are 11 and 18.
 
There are times when you are happy to give to others, but also times when you feel deprived because no one is giving back. Feeling resentful only makes you feel worse, and companions won't appreciate your help if it seems forced. Give yourself the odd treat to boost your spirits and try to keep an open mind. If you can be tolerant and open to feedback, you will progress faster. Favourable colours are azure and ginger. Lucky numbers are 29 and 9.
 
Even if your busy schedule does not allow you to play truant for long, you need to take a break or you will get over-stretched. Be more light-hearted in the way you handle conversations today, dear Leo. Keep an open mind and don't become so tunnel-visioned that you can't see anything beyond what you're talking about. Auspicious colours are marigold and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 14 and 29.
 
You are feeling more intense than usual. You realise that getting cash arrangements sorted out is vital, especially if you feel you aren't being valued properly. If you feel frustrated because companions are shutting off what you say, then you need to rethink your approach. Sometimes the harder you push, the more they resist. Gentle persuasion will work best, or even be slightly devious. Go the long way round rather than being too direct. Auspicious colours are sunflower yellow and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 32 and 16.
 
You're thinking about changing the way you relate to others, but don't decide anything on the spur of the moment. Getting your own security together needs to come first. If you're feeling gloomy, remember not to take the bleak side of every situation. Sometimes you just have to dig deep to find out what people's motivations really are. What has led you to the situation you are now facing? Knowledge is freedom. Advantageous colours are rust red and grey blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 50.
 
Don't stick yourself in tedious routines, dear Pisces, or get bogged down in following orders. But watch you don't get crossed lines and mixed messages. There could be communication or even travel muddles if you don't keep your eye on the ball. Open up to other people a bit more. Maybe you feel you would be humiliated if you disclose all your best ideas, but you could gain a lot from creative discussions. Passionate colours are teal blue and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
You are especially sensitive today, Scorpio, as there is a Lunar eclipse in your own sign. Don't leap to instant decisions about a close relationship since your judgement may be off. Try to keep a balanced view. Examine everything in great detail, but don't make judgements before you have all the information at your fingertips. When you find the answers, make sure you don't push them too forcefully at other people. Stabilising colours are quicksilver and coffee. Lucky numbers are 46 and 74.
 
Travel problems are likely today, mainly because you're not concentrating, and you constantly change your mind. Sit down at the start and work it all out more carefully. Try to do some research and dig below the surface. You want to influence companions, so you will be mustering up all your persuasive force and vigour. But if you push too hard other people will back off. Fortuitous colours are chestnut and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 14.
 
You're dashing around, trying to sort out what other people think about this or that, but at the end of it all you reach your own conclusions and decide where you are going to commit your energy in the future. Try to listen to feedback since companions may have the wrong end of the stick. Indeed you may find it tricky to keep in focus yourself. Leave major situations until you are clearer. Ideal colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 3 and 47.
 
Other people may be demanding quite a lot of you, so don't feel resentful, or like a martyr. Having to fit in all the time with other people's plans, whims, suggestions and orders can sometimes feel that way. Do what makes you feel virtuous, but don't let other people push you around too much. You will be able to sort out quite a few situations that have been bugging you for a few days. Uplifting colours are periwinkle blue and walnut brown. Lucky numbers are 13 and 1.
 
Try not to be jealous or possessive if things are not going precisely as you want. Balance is what you need, but avoid swinging to extremes in the effort to find it. Having a partner you can confide in is vital to your confidence now. The Moon is at a tricky angle to Mercury so it's difficult to bring discussions or conversations to a satisfactory conclusion, as you will be constantly switching tack. Relaxing colours are bright orange and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
 
Your emotional responses are more intense as important, influential or strong-minded people are drawn into your orbit. Try not to say everything you feel or think. You will be covering the same ground for a while, so try not to go round in circles. You are feeling more impressionable than usual, and able to take in different viewpoints. Be more detached and observant and you see the whole picture much better. Confident colours are blackberry and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 21 and 35.
 
This is a good day to be self-protective and retreat into a private place, preferably at home. So much the better if you can manage to take the day off, put your feet up and wrap yourself around a warm teddy bear. Even if you're at work, you need a protective niche where you push away awkward people, hassles and hustle. With Mars in flowing aspect to the Moon you will find yourself in higher gear at home. Relaxing colours are dusky rose and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 56 and 2.
 
Sometimes you get yourself worked up about things that are not as important as you're making them out to be. Try to give yourself some space to just wind down and be a bit more at peace if you possibly can. Maybe you will be too sentimental or too sugary sweet on the surface. Try to be more honest about your feelings underneath. You will want beauty or luxury at home and your appetite may be more tempted than usual. Positive colours are bright red and avocado. Lucky numbers are 64 and 4.
 
With the fortunate Moon in your ninth house, you communicate on a much broader scale. Expect messages from abroad or from a distance away. Loftier subjects occupy your mind, whether philosophy, religion, education or politics. You have a lot of energy for improving your surroundings or life situations. Move cautiously, try tact not foot- stamping. Put your energy into constructive projects. Fortuitous colours are pumpkin and avocado. Lucky numbers are 9 and 18.
 
Too much of nothing makes a man feel ill at ease. Give yourself permission to go off and do what you want to do for yourself. You won't manage it entirely, of course, but for some of the day take time out for reflection. You'll be surprised in the quiet moments how inspiration suddenly hits you about things that seemed to have no answer. Channel that energy in constructive directions and you'll go far. Positive colours are raw hide and glossy brown. Lucky numbers are 5 and 69.
 
Money and security are the main things on your mind now. Push yourself into doing boring things like paperwork. Once you have that organised, you'll be able to shop with a clear conscience! You have strong feelings that you are keeping to yourself. Even close companions find it difficult to know quite what runs below the surface in you, but you sense that one old resentment has finally been laid to rest. Relaxing colours are aqua and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 5 and 74.
 
The Moon is nurturing and motherly now, and sitting on your midheaven for a couple of days. It is nudging you into being more protective of those around you. The more you give, the more everyone appreciates you, so try looking on the bright side. You cope well with situations which are out of the ordinary but you might make normal situations more difficult than they need to be. Favourable colours are sage green and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 18 and 67.
 
Feeling flamboyant and exuberant, there's no doubt the Twins are in the spotlight. You smooch, schmooze and generally put yourself about in a thoroughly charming fashion. Colleagues and co-workers adore your easygoing ways, so you should be able to pour oil on troubled waters. You can achieve almost anything today. Harmonious colours are blue and yellow. Lucky numbers are 6 and 27.
 
Words flow out like a flood just now, Leo. If you stand back and be a bit more sensible about one or two things, it really would help a lot. The emotional Moon and mental Mercury are at odds so you are inclined to go off at tangents. Chitter-chattering your way along, your heart may be in the right place but you may not be as persuasive as you think. Sensible colours are crimson and silver. Lucky numbers are 14 and 4.
 
If you sense a need for change in a close partnership, it could just be a minor adjustment in the way you relate to each other. Let go and allow changes to take place, you will find your connection deepens. You have ambitions to expand your image and if you use your artistic talents to achieve, then you will gain the status you seek. At the same time, too many demands on partners won't take you where you want to go. Auspicious colours are graphite and olive. Lucky numbers are 54 and 9.
 
As long as you don't play too many games today you can twist other people round your little finger. That's your style, Scorpio. You have a wicked smile on your face and several trump cards hidden well out of sight, but you do have to tread warily or close companions may end up feeling controlled or used. This can see some rather sharp words. Concentrate of improving your finances, for there are some obstacles in your way. Beneficial colours are copper and lime. Lucky numbers are 3 and 24.
 
Try flashing a happy smile, even if you're gritting your teeth behind the scenes. You'll get your own way faster by being charming. Your feelings run deeper than usual, but that should be your secret. Looking after your body is a priority since you do feel pressured by demands on your time and energy. Constantly pushing against difficulties drains your energy reserves. Isn't there an easier way round certain work situations? Uplifting colours are sable and dark red. Lucky numbers are 3 and 26.
 
You have a definite need for something more exciting and thrilling, Gemini. You can exert your power by nudging others into doing something they might not really want to do. Be cautious, because you could find close companions get a bit resentful. Try to be more laid-back. You are not taking your feelings lightly now, but are on people or off them, either adoring or loathing. There's no middle way. Businesslike colours are amber and salmon. Lucky numbers are 9 and 6.
 
There is a rather fated feeling about a certain relationship now, Aries, but after few days you'll wonder what on earth you were getting so excited about. Be careful your feelings aren't leading you up the garden path. You need to re-think some of your personal beliefs and find a different perspective on your life. Positive colours are silver and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 24 and 30.
 
Venus is now at a tricky angle to Pluto but if you get the better end of this influence, you can be extremely seductive or persuasive. Don't make it obvious if you have a hidden agenda up your sleeve. Is there something you are not admitting to yourself? Pluto in the deepest area of your chart makes you fascinated by what runs below the surface in all the highly charged situations in life, especially to do with money and love. Beneficial colours are daffodil yellow and lime green. Lucky numbers are 70 and 42.
 
If someone you fancy suddenly seems absolutely fascinating, watch your step. You know in your heart of hearts they are not really very good for you, but all the same you think they are wonderful. Enjoy the feeling but avoid the trap. Anyone who makes you feel controlled or restricted is not going to be worth it. It may take an upheaval before you free yourself up to act as you please, but that's the process, isn't it? Favourable colours are cerulean and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.
 
You may be feeling a little bit stuck where one relationship is concerned, or insecure. It's just a passing cloud, so give yourself a shake and be more positive. Looking on the worst side of any situation will always throw up flaws and inadequacies. You are coming across as a strong personality, but secretive and unfathomable as well. No one quite knows what makes you tick, including yourself. Don't make close companions feel excluded or shut out. Auspicious colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 78 and 4.
 
Close friendships are more important than usual today, Aquarius. Seek out people who will boost your self-esteem and make you feel good. Feel free to flit around as it suits you without feeling restricted. Long-running relationships will go through a rather tense phase if you have a possessive partner or friend, so refuse to rise to the bait or be provoked into saying more than the situation merits. Uplifting colours are yellow ochre and green apple. Lucky numbers are 22 and 14.
 
You are even more charming than usual, Capricorn. You know what you want, even if you're not saying, and will use all your wiles to bring others around to your way of thinking. If you can keep your ulterior motives out of sight then all will be well. You are having quite a profound, almost unseen, influence on the people around you because of the strength of your personality. Maybe you are stronger than you give yourself credit for. Auspicious colours are chestnut and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 59.
 
There is an old saying about treating loved ones like birds which are allowed to fly free. If you cage them they will one day escape. But if you can trust enough to let them do what they want, they will more readily come back to you. The message being that clutching doesn't ever work in the long run. Maybe you are in one of your periodic upheavals at home, trying to clear out whatever you feel is blocking or frustrating you. Auspicious colours are coffee and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 1 and 58.
 
Sometimes you feel passionate about things and sometimes everything gets a bit gritty and you struggle to break free. Try not to overreact to the odd stress and strain, just rise graciously above it all and harmony will be restored sooner than you think. Watch you are not too forceful in expressing yourself now and get into arguments. Look at the other person's point of view. You are probably not aware of how intense you sound. Appropriate colours are mother of pearl and dark green. Lucky numbers are 3 and 62.
 
With Jupiter passing slowly but steadily through your twelfth house of secrets and confidential matters, you're finding yourself more contented. The best result is that you are learning to be more confident and the best insights will come in the quiet moments. Heavy responsibilities at work or out in the community weigh you down temporarily but you will gain a sense of fulfilment. Remember you will reap now what you have sown in previous years. You have a greater sense of security. Expressive colours are aquamarine and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 2 and 23.
 
Feeling lucky and more confident than usual, your relationships improve and tensions ease. The only tiny problem could be that you get a little ahead of yourself or above yourself, but you will soon know when to hold back. What you need is to fulfil your visions and be practical at the same time. You will find that this is well within your capabilities. Stay positive. Favourable colours are dark orange and warm brown. Lucky numbers are 5 and 53.
 
Your relationships at work or out in the community will prosper well. Your ambition is flowing smoothly, not just now but for months to come. Good at inspiring enthusiasm in others, you're a great motivator, though you sometimes think you can perform miracles. But today you'll sense you've reached a sensible balance where cash is concerned and joint responsibilities. The flavour of the day is share, care, relate and cooperate. Appropriate colours are cream and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 6 and 29.
 
Emotionally you are changing faster than you realize. You're making the transition from the past to the future very smoothly and your intimate relationships are improving as a result. There is a generosity coming your way from the universe since you started to open up and let go control. But you still need to be more efficient and better organised. Is there no let-up from toil? You must also understand when to say no. Appropriate colours are plum and peach. Lucky numbers are 10 and 11.
 
At work or around everyday chores, you find support and encouragement today. Perhaps great success hasn't arrived yet, but improved job conditions will come within the next few months, so be of practical service to others. Keep up your efforts to make the changes you want on the home front. Tension from added work pressures have created stress, but what's out in the open can be sorted out. Ideal colours are sable and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 25 and 71.
 
Activities with friends and associates should be going with a swing, Scorp. Expansive Jupiter has been in your eleventh house of group and team efforts for some time now, so your sunny self-confidence makes everyone around you feel better, while they in turn give you a sense of better times to come. You are slowly moving towards a peak of success in your life, but it would be a mistake to think you have all the answers just yet. Advantageous colours are black onyx and honeysuckle. Lucky numbers are 45 and 18.
 
In a morale-boosting mood, you lift other people's spirits and make them feel great. Chatting happily to companions, you glide through your work routines with less effort than usual. You are very open-minded. Knowing a little about many things could be seen as superficial, but it is also amazingly versatile. But for all that you do sense that life has taken on a more serious purpose. Plan for the future. Relaxing colours are olive and soft pink. Lucky numbers are 7 and 42.
 
There is a growing sense of peace and comfort, less tension than in the past in your family and domestic setup. A happy home life is top of your priority list, far beyond anything the outside world has to offer. Keep thinking of ways to expand your intimate surroundings, to bring you more comfort and relaxation. But don't take your eye off the ball financially. You know you need to be realistic and more practical. Auspicious colours are purple and terra cotta. Lucky numbers are 21 and 38.
 
Close relationships should be easier and less tense, Pisces. Still, you shouldn't take partners too much for granted or rely totally on their advice, which is not always realistic. They have a sunny-side-up mentality which is morale-boosting, but wise to take with a pinch of salt. With Saturn passing through your house of romance, entertainment and fun for another year you are having to learn lessons about love. Beneficial colours are american oak and jet black. Lucky numbers are 2 and 7.
 
You need to be intellectually stimulated, so you're seeking more challenging companions. You want to pick up new activities or studies which will broaden your mind. Don't let it all be a dream. Make the effort to reach out and ask for what you need, but you have to be realistic where close relationships are concerned. There may be a sense of separation or cool in the atmosphere with certain mates but it will soon pass. Beneficial colours are russet red and beige. Lucky numbers are 2 and 11.
 
Over recent months through some ups and downs, you've noticed that your self confidence has held up remarkably well. Jupiter has been improving your relationships with loved ones and children and you've allowed yourself to play more spontaneously and this will continue for some months to come. Let yourself sparkle in the spotlight and enjoy being appreciated. Some companions seem unwilling to hear what you say, but you'll break through eventually as all your arguments are based on common sense. Auspicious colours are sage green and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
It's not easy to take practical decisions, Leo. What you want is to retreat into a private space to ponder. But there's good luck around on the cash front so don't hide away to the extent that you miss good opportunities. Material aims can take over, but you have other values and know how to steer the middle course. Saturn's restrictive influence can make you too cautious or fearful of the future, but your fighting spirit will win through. Effective colours are mahogany and tan. Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
