Aquarius Jan 28 - Feb 18 A business or romantic partner could encourage you to act on a dream. It's never too late to realise your heartfelt desires. Some heavy flirting with a love interest could make life exciting again. If you're already in a relationship, you may want to step up your game in the bedroom. Pay more attention to your lover's physical needs. Unless you make time for intimacy, it will remain elusive. At long last, you may have an opportunity to pay off a hefty debt.

PISCES FEB 19 - Mar 20

Your detailed knowledge of a particular subject puts you in line for a promotion. Don't be shy about promoting your extensive background in this area. You're far more experienced than any of your rivals. An honest talk with a business or romantic partner could reveal some troubling information. It seems as though your friend has been harbouring some deep, dark fears. Together, you can beat them. A friend may ask for more than you can give. If you're unable to help, just say so.

Aries Mar 21 - Apr 19

Establishing a new routine should be your first order of business. If you've recently gained weight or fallen into lazy habits, now is the time to reverse the process. Having a game plan is half the battle. You need to conserve your energy to handle the heavy workload ahead. Be realistic when it comes to an absent minded friend. Expecting them to keep an appointment may be more than they can handle. If you need help, ask a more reliable neighbour or relative.

Taurus Apr 20 - May 20

Making more time for pleasurable pursuits like gardening, cooking, and hobbies in general is a good idea. Lately, you've been snowed under with family responsibilities. Be ready to hand these duties to someone else so you can have some fun. Your boss may not have a clear idea of what you should be doing. Ask them to make things clear or even more confusion will ensue. If you're looking for work, you need to revamp your resume. Be precise about your skills and goals.

Gemini May 21 - June 20

A short trip to see family could be in the cards. Try not to bring up troubling incidents from the past. Dwelling on sad memories will prevent you from forging healthier relationships. Don't contradict an expert. Although you have different ideas about how certain things should be done, they have spent a lifetime perfecting their own techniques. Challenging their methods in public will only make you look foolish. It may be time to overhaul your household budget.

Cancer Jun 21 - Jul 22

This is a wonderful time to negotiate a better salary. At the very least, you should ask for increased benefits. You're overdue for a reward. A writing project could be a welcome outlet for bottled up emotions. Just because you can't express your true feelings in public doesn't mean you have to keep them entirely buried. Don't be surprised if you're asked to teach a class. This job could be a labour of love. Take more of an active role in deciding how joint finances should be spent.

Leo Jul 23 - Aug 22

Business matters demand your attention. It's possible you're not being paid enough to perform a difficult job. Be ready to ask for a raise, even if it means confronting a difficult employer. They won't part with money easily, but they'll be unable to argue with your logic. Don't deceive yourself with regard to a close relationship. Your partner isn't as na•ve as you think. It's time to discuss difficult subjects like wills, insurance, or savings plans. You need to plan for the future.

Virgo Aug 23 - Sep 22

You're about to assume a much more public role. Perhaps you'll be asked to speak on behalf of your employer. It may be up to you to deliver some difficult news. Fortunately, you're able to talk about difficult subjects in a way that is compassionate and sensitive. Resist the urge to dress down an incompetent colleague. If they are wasting the company's time and money, file a complaint. If you own the business, keep a record of all of their mistakes and misdeeds.

Libra Sep 23 - Oct 22

A friend could give you a wake up call. It's time to change the way you think about the world. Perhaps you've been taking too pessimistic a view of life. You can create opportunities when you look at the universe as a potential packed place. You could be entrusted with important secrets. Although you dislike keeping information hidden from your nearest and dearest, you understand why it is necessary. Contrary to what you think, a child knows exactly what they are doing.

Scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21

Learning about a social justice issue could give you a new lease on life. You're determined to make a positive difference. You may want to ask your employer to make a contribution to this cause. Not only will it create good publicity, it will also go a long way toward reversing a serious problem. Be wary of casting judgment on a relative. Their feelings are pretty fragile right now. Think back to a time when you could have benefited from a more compassionate attitude.

Sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21

You have a wonderful opportunity to put some old knowledge to use at work. Don't be surprised if you're asked to demonstrate a skill or technique. Your energy and enthusiasm make you a popular teacher. Your students will also be impressed by your versatility. A powerful female authority figure could give you a chance to move into a different aspect of your industry. This won't be a permanent change, but it will be a rewarding one. Resist the urge to discuss religion or politics with a neighbour.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19

Gaining admittance to a school, club, or professional organisation is highly favoured. You'll have to fill out some detailed paperwork. Enlist the aid of an eagle eyed Virgo to make sure you don't skip any important points. Keep your personal information under lock and key, or you could become a victim of identity theft. It may be time to change your computer password, too. Listen to an expert's advice with regard to business matters. You need to make preparations for your retirement.
