ARIES

As Mercury, planet of the mind, moves into your birth sign today, it's an ideal time to think ahead. What you decide on today will be what you work on for the next several weeks, so carefully decide what you really want and then use all your Aries energy to make your dreams come true.

TAURUS

What do you fear the most? Whatever it is, now's the time to confront it and, in confronting it, overcome it once and for all. Mercury, planet of the mind, moves into the most secretive area of your chart today, which means you can and must face your fears.

GEMINI

As Mercury, your ruler, changes signs today, you'll experience a profound shift in the way you use your mind. Your opinions are more likely to change now than at any other time as you become aware of possibilities that didn't occur to you before. This is also an excellent time for being with friends, especially those who make you think.

CANCER

Beginning today, you'll find that your attitude to work becomes a lot more serious. Even if you're already successful in what you do, you'll realize there's so much more you can achieve, and time is running out. If you discover something that can be turned to your professional advantage, you must make use of it. If you don't, someone else will.

LEO

You'll increase your chances of success considerably today if you're willing to look further than your everyday environment. Now that Mercury, planet of communication and the mind, is joining the sun in the area of your chart that governs, among other things, long-distance travel, you won't be short of offers to expand your horizons. Accept each and every one of them.

VIRGO

Mercury, your ruling planet, moves into the most intense and focused area of your chart today, which suggests, among others things, that something or someone is going to captivate you to such an extent that you have little time and little thought for anything else. In the short term, that may not be a bad thing, but don't let it become an obsession.

LIBRA

With both the sun and Venus, your ruler, transiting your opposite sign of Aries, you seem to be doing everything for other people and nothing much for yourself. That won't be such a problem once Venus changes signs early next week, but until then, you'll be on 24-hour standby both at home and at work. Never mind. Think of all the good karma you're earning.

SCORPIO

You know what you have to do and you know why you must do it - now all you have to do is find the energy to get started. Fortunately, as Mercury, planet of the mind, moves into the work and health sector of your chart today, you'll find plenty of reasons to get off your backside - not least that your reputation will suffer if you don't.

SAGITTARIUS

Nothing is beyond you today. All things are possible. Now that Mercury, planet of the mind, joins the sun in the most creative and dynamic sector of your chart, you'll make even the most difficult tasks look easy. However, don't take on too much and spread yourself too thin. If you want to be a star, you've got to stay focused.

CAPRICORN

The most important thing today is that you stay true to your beliefs. The more partners and colleagues try to persuade you to change your way of looking at the world, the more you must dig in your heels and refuse to be moved. There's a lot to be said for tradition.

AQUARIUS

You can talk your way into or out of anything today. Your powers of persuasion are phenomenal. Whether you use this talent wisely remains to be seen, but wherever you go and whatever you do, others will be impressed by your way with words and also the way you demolish your opponents by showing up the gaps in their knowledge and the holes in their arguments.

PISCES

Any lingering idea that you could cling to the old way of doing things will evaporate today as it becomes painfully obvious that the world has moved on and you must move with it. The good news is that because Pisces is such an adaptable sign, you'll find the transition easier than you expected - and then, no doubt, you'll wish you'd made it earlier.
