ARIES
MARCH 21 TO APRIL 19
Romance is about to enter your life from most unexpected direction as you begin to see an acquaintance in a new light. Giving support in times of need can teach you more about each other than months of superficial socializing, providing a firm basis for long-term understanding and trust. Trips could cause a few upsets, particularly if youngsters get overly tired. It would be unwise to go too far or visit a place that may be boringly over the heads of younger family members. The ability to assert yourself might be put to the test as close relatives tell you what to think. Do not be afraid to follow your own good instincts.

TAURUS
APRIL 20 TO MAY 20
Personal belongings have a way of disappearing at home, only to turn up somewhere you think you have searched several times. You have probably only mislaid an item that you fear is lost, so relax; it will reappear in its own good time. You may be romantically attracted to a newcomer to your social circle whose life is an unknown quantity. It would be intriguing to find out more about them. However, if they are overly secretive, warning bells should sound in your mind. Find an hour to go over finances with your mate or partner. There may be funds that had slipped your attention which would be extremely useful for a necessary purchase. Avoid using charge cards if possible.
GEMINI
MAY 21 TO JUNE 21
As the day draws to a close, you have much to look back on and celebrate. Make a resolution to build during the coming months on the progress you have achieved in creative endeavors. This is a very fruitful path to pursue. Youngsters' education is likely to be on your mind. Any doubts or problems should be fully discussed with their teacher or school principal. You will probably find ways to improve prospects if you give it some serious thought. Recent tensions within the home may still be causing some trouble. If you allow this situation to continue, it could spoil an otherwise promising time. Try to sort out the problem without delay. Enjoy evening partying with the person who is most important to you.
CANCER
JUNE 22 TO JULY 22
A cautious approach to the day would be wise. If you set out with high hopes of getting a lot done, you are bound to be disappointed. Caring for an older relative can be a demanding task. However, you owe them a debt, so try to fulfill your duties with good grace. A family day out will be more successful if you have a serious project in mind. It is easy to slip learning in by the back door so that youngsters find it enjoyable. Greater involvement in community affairs might seem a bit of a burden at first, but you will soon find it rewarding to improve conditions for yourself and your neighbors. You may even want to run for elective office.
LEO
JULY 23 TO AUGUST 22
You may not be in a position to make definite plans or commitments at the moment. Be honest about this rather than making any promise you may not be able to keep. If you are unattached, it can be difficult to get a new relationship off the ground. You may suddenly become tongue-tied in the presence of someone you find attractive, or when they call you on the phone. This is not the time to try to explain yourself. Instead, try not to worry too much about making a good impression. Just be yourself and act naturally. Chances are the other person is just as nervous as you and may be harboring the same doubts.
VIRGO
AUGUST 23 TO SEPTEMBER 22
A new romance promises a more settled relationship than those you may be used to. You may feel the need to spice it up a little, but it would be very unwise to rock the boat in any way. This is a good time to plan ahead. Sit down with your mate or partner and discuss what you both have in mind for the future. Unless you have some firm aims, you will tend to drift from day to day without achieving anything very lasting. A trip to a romantic spot could put extra zest back in a close relationship. Pick somewhere with happy memories, and spring it as a surprise on your loved one. Try not to say anything controversial at a social event.
LIBRA
SEPTEMBER 23 TO OCTOBER 22
Entertaining at home should be very successful. You do not need to worry about the details. Just let the get-together unfold in its own manner. Be sure to leave room for your guests' spontaneity. Romance may be just around the corner. Even if you have been without a partner for some time, take heart. A quite ordinary friendship could slowly mature into a close relationship that is all the stronger for having developed over time. Although you might wake up with big plans for what you want to do today, it would be wiser to be modest in your arrangements. In fact, more can probably be achieved in this way and with a greater sense of satisfaction.
SCORPIO
OCTOBER 23 TO NOVEMBER 21
Those who have been hoping for a romantic moment will probably not be disappointed. At last someone is going to pluck up enough courage to reveal their feelings toward you, then be on tenterhooks to know if you have the same feelings. A new health regime can do wonders for your sense of well-being. Every improvement in your health will give you additional zest for life. Keeping large presents hidden until the time is right to give them need not be a problem if you enlist the help of a neighbor. Avoid arguing with loved ones as much as possible; tension can strain the home atmosphere, but a dose of good humour should ease the situation.
SAGITTARIUS
NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 21
Allow self-doubt to creep in and the day can be ruined. You need to take the attitude that problems are there to be overcome, then believe that you can win over them. Dealing with parents or other older relatives requires a measure of patience when they stubbornly refuse to comply with your wishes. More tolerance on your part is also needed. Consult family members before making a decision that affects your everyday life. They will be just as involved as you in any change of routine. Consolidating plans for the future should help you feel a lot more secure. Check over your finances so that you have a clear idea of what you can reasonably buy without incurring overwhelming debt.
CAPRICON
DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 19
There is every possibility of upsets because no one in the family is listening to anyone else. Instead of just talking past each other, allot a set time for everyone to have their say. Otherwise the day could dissolve into chaos. Getting household chores out of the way can be more challenging than usual, particularly with youngsters demanding your undivided attention. They may need everything explained to them, but teaching them in this way is more important than completing your tasks. Make time to get in touch with a brother, sister, or other relative you do not often talk to. It is too easy to slip out of contact. You will find plenty to discuss, including some surprises.
AQUARIUS
JANUARY 20 TO FEBRUARY 18
You are apt to feel quite tired, with any thought of exertion not at all pleasing. Leave heavy work to those who want to get some exercise. Pamper yourself on this traditional day of rest. Youngsters may be quieter than usual. If you try to find out what they are up to, they can be rather evasive. As long as they seem happily occupied, it is probably safe to leave them to their own devices. If you need to talk over issues with your parents or other relatives, it would be nice to do so over a meal. You will find agreement easier to reach if you all feel relaxed. A meeting at a friend's house could plunge you into the middle of a religious or political controversy.
PISCES
FEBRUARY 19 TO MARCH 20
Loved ones may overrule you when it comes to deciding how to get the best out of the day. This is one time when you probably cannot get what you want, but at least you can please other people. Travel arrangements are apt to be delayed. Your plans might have to be revised as available time begins to dwindle. Keeping youngsters entertained will probably test all of your powers of patience and imagination. Where romance is concerned, it would be unwise to leave important words unsaid. The other person cannot guess your thoughts and could be waiting for reassurance. An attempt to organize paperwork is almost certain to fail; leave it for another time.
