ARIES (Mar 21 to Apr 20)

Pleasure planet Venus is now visiting your sign. So it’s a wonderful day to enjoy the good things in life like good food, fine wine, socialising, shopping, plus hair and beauty treatments.

TAURUS (Apr 21 to May 20)

If you’re feeling stressed today, then relax and wind down with some meditation, contemplation, yoga, music, reading or long walks in nature. Whatever helps you calm down and tune out.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21)

Networking — in person and via social media — is a wonderful way to get your message across. But when it comes to business and money matters, make sure you read the fine print carefully.

CANCER (June 22 to July 23)

Venus is visiting your career zone until June 6. So a tricky situation with a work colleague should start to improve. The more co-operative you are, the quicker the improvement will be!

LEO (July 24 to Aug 23)

Fabulous professional or financial opportunities are around, but you have to be patient and work out the perfect time to strike. Look to a friend from foreign shores for some lucky business advice.

VIRGO (Aug 24 to Sept 23)

Your Virgo powers of persuasion are firing. So it’s a good time to pitch an idea or ask for a favour, as Venus helps you intuitively know the right thing to say to the right person.

LIBRA (Sept 24 to Oct 23)

Have you been arguing with a loved one or a business partner? Venus encourages you to be more diplomatic and consultative. Sometimes you need to lose a minor battle in order to win the war.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 to Nov 22)

Venus shifts into Aries, where it stays until June 6. This will help you approach daily tasks with more creativity, and also lead to improved relationships with work colleagues.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23 to Dec 22)

Today, do your best to be smart and sexy rather than self-indulgent and extravagant. Venus gives friendships a welcome boost as you connect with like-minded souls.

CAPRICORN (Dec 23 to Jan 20)

Venus is visiting your home zone until June 6. So it’s time to spruce up your domestic abode and entertain in gracious style. Fresh flowers and relaxing music are a must.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb 19)

Communication is the buzz word today as you circulate in style. Any tasks requiring creativity and quick thinking are favoured. Then you can relax after a job well done.

PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar 20)

With Venus shifting into your cash zone, beware the tendency to be extravagant and over-spend. An enjoyable shopping spree now could end up being a serious problem further down the track.
