Mars in the sign of ambitious achievement refuels your enthusiasm to initiate new projects or pursue long-term goals. Inspiration won't be lacking, but to attract the co-operation you'll need to temper that awesome personal determination with empathy, sensitivity and the rich reservoirs of Arien charm you occasionally forget to access.
TAURUS
You'll like this week's logical reasoning and appreciate its aesthetic expression; the bossy barging about, maybe not so much. But the upside's a super-auspicious cosmic charge to start on that cherished enterprise/trip/business venture/creative endeavour or whatever you've been mulling over. Don't put it off any longer.
GEMINI
Your ruling planet joining up with the sun and Jupiter in Libra brings interesting newbies with exciting ideas into your orbit – and makes you a persuasive salesperson, though with Mercury squaring Mars, stay tuned in to differences: some people need to hear things clearly and often, for others a gentle hint's enough.
CANCER
This week stretches you to expand your thinking. To shrink the distance between what you'd love and your old beliefs about what's possible. Sure these may have served you up until now, but everything has its use-by date. And there's so much wondrous new stuff waiting to fill whatever space you make for it.
LEO
Great astral vibes right now for housewitchery, a feng shui freshen-up or elegant spring makeover – just in time for hosting all those networking and brainstorming get-togethers. During which, take care to sidestep arguments, because melodramatic moments are likely to have long-lasting consequences. Discretion is way more important than grand gestures this week.
VIRGO
Mind-managing Mercury, your primo planet, in leisure-loving Libra says ease up on your work load. Factor in more mix-and-mingle time with upbeat companions. Delight your senses with earthly pleasures, your mind with theatrical and artistic pursuits, your soul by communing with nature or helping someone who needs it.
LIBRA
Honey-tongued wordsmith Mercury moving into Libra makes reconciliation your buzzword. Because having The Talk about something that really needs discussing, ironing out differences, extending an olive branch and making peace is actually a big relief. You already know text or email won't cut it, so phone or make arrangements to meet.
SCORPIO
With this week's astral emphasis in equable Libra, it's time to set things right. The cosmos is supplying an energetic care package to assist. No need to rush. Take your time. But know that righting financial, relational, familial or professional grievances clears the pathway to success. Feeling those fluttering butterflies of anticipation yet ...?
SAGITTARIUS
It's always challenging dealing with certain people. But you're nothing if not an adaptable sign, and this week's astral energies favour the give and take of fence-mending, with agreement easier to reach if you're prepared to compromise and make concessions. If in doubt about what to say, nothing is often the best option.
CAPRICORN
Mars in your sign can sometimes be blunt, so if weekend Capricorn moon finds you a tad feisty, pause before speaking your mind. Even sleep on it. Give whatever needs to be said enough time to distil and refine any harsh or sharp edges that could sabotage this week's peak opportunities.
AQUARIUS
Best use of this weekend? Communing with your creative muse. There are many ways of balancing future plans with present demands to reach shared objectives, so don't lock into old holding patterns – stay open for the unexpected to happen. And with Jupiter loosening lips, consider toning down those media quips.
PISCES
As this week's Libran influences continue sorting fact from fantasy, you'll find yourself having to navigate a balance between inclusiveness and what's best left out. Try not to let your personal scales be swayed by other people's suppositions, assumptions and shifting priorities, especially during late week's sensitive Pisces moon.
