TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If yesterday felt like a hard trudge through treacle, then today should feel like a walk in the park. There will be opportunities for both friendships and romance to take some major leaps forward this evening. Talking through an ongoing problem will prove most beneficial!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): A strong set of influences from the moon are likely to focus both your thoughts and your energies into one specific key area of your life. This will also temper your more aloof side, which will prove useful this evening when a development in your love life takes a turn for the better!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You should find that your mood is more intense today, and the added bonus is that romance looks set to improve! Attached Cancerians are likely to find that their partners are extra attentive, while singles will be on the receiving end of some light-hearted, but flattering flirtations!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Keep an eye on your cash reserves, Leo and close your ears to any suggestions that might lead you to the mall. This is not a day for spending, because you’re likely to over-stretch or even blow your budget. Arrange the sort of fun evening with friends that won’t eat into any reserves!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): With some excellent aspects in your chart you can expect a day where fun and friendships take the focus. This boost of contentment and satisfaction with the world shouldn’t be frittered away doing dreary chores; instead you should aim to spend lots of quality time with your close friends!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’re likely to experience that Friday-feeling from the start. A look at the planets indicates an opportunity for travel and for trips to somewhere different, enabling you to broaden your horizon generally. Just make sure you take advantage of whatever fabulous chances come your way!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The fun that you thought was lacking recently should be revived, but there may be a minor dilemma regarding a certain matter relating to either work or school. If you can’t decide whether to go with your inner instincts, or to follow a more logical approach, the planets suggest that you should follow your gut!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The key word for you should be patience. Matters are progressing more slowly than you would like in relation to one particular emotional issue. If you try and force things this is likely to counterproductive, so the best approach is to allow things to resolve themselves in their own time!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll be keen to establish a sense of personal space and independence, thanks to the influence of the moon. However, you could overreact if a close friend or partner seems to get too clingy. Try and keep a sense of perspective about your needs and those of your friends right now!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your natural optimism and famed good humor will serve you well, especially if a relative or close friend starts behaving erratically or unpredictably. Romance may well be the cause of someone’s low level discontent; just don’t get too drawn in, because this phase/mood will pass!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Home is where you’ll want to be, since there will be a strong influence from the element of fire, which governs actions and activities. So if you find you’re feeling dynamic and ready to make some changes, go for it, since this inspiration is likely to last for much of the weekend!

FOR THOSE OF US BORN ON THIS DAY: Happy Birthday! The months ahead are likely to begin with an incredibly balanced approach. You’ll tend towards a laid-back approach, when sometimes you’ll need to be a little more proactive, especially in terms of school or work. Later in the year there could be some anxiety caused by the demands of family conflicting with the demands of your love-life; you can make this easier by talking the problems through with a sympathetic work colleague or school friend! Keeping the balance will continue to be a challenge, as you juggle the various areas of your life, but by the New Year the pace will change as you become more sociable and more outgoing, until the spring, where you can look forward to some major changes for the better!

CELEBRITY GOSSIP: Ariana Grande may be looking to increase the size of her adult fan-base, but most of the people who enjoy her music are still children. It may not have been a wise move for Ariana to make some anti-Santa comments in a recent interview and it suggests her management team may be slipping. Interestingly, the planets also forecast a particularly difficult February for Ariana!
