ARIES
March 21 - April 20
In less enlightened times, every family had a Mr or a Mrs Nobody. This was the person who was held responsible for the inevitable annoying things that happen in households. The person who left the keys in the door or left the cap off the toothpaste . . . Need I say more! But in these more sophisticated times, we're better at shouldering responsibilities for our misdeeds, aren't we? Actually, sometimes we own up to doing things we haven't done! Don't be pressured into doing that today. Don't miss your personal Moonsign forecast. It's packed with insight. Call 0906 751 5601.
TAURUS
April 21- May 21
When you apply yourself, and put in the effort, you can accomplish a lot. But sometimes you achieve more when you don't try so hard. You're anticipating having to expend a lot of energy and you're preparing for a test of strength — but you might not need to strive so hard. The New Moon reveals you've covered more ground than you think. Inadvertently, while you were pursuing a different goal, you created strong foundations for the structure you want to build. Prepare to find solutions (rather than problems) today. The New Moon has a powerful message for you. For a spookily accurate prediction, call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI
May 22 - June 22
If you've already 'been there', 'done that' and 'got the T-shirt', why bother doing it again? Is there a different style on offer? Have they changed the wording to: 'Been here already, done it already, but am going for another attempt'? Sometimes we do things, realise we don't like doing them, and tell ourselves we won't repeat the experience. But other times, that prevents us repeating things we'll learn to like. And, when we learn to like something (or someone) they become precious. Persevere today. It's time for positive change! Call your spookily accurate Moonsign forecast: 0906 751 5603.
CANCER
June 23 - July 23
What would be possible with a bit more self-belief? Well, anything. Yes, it's technically possible to turn into an over-confident individual, who arrogantly thinks they're entitled to the best. But it's highly unlikely. You're naturally gentle, kind and compassionate. So long as you don't lose sight of these defining qualities there's not going to be a problem. Your moral compass is finely tuned. Self-doubt not only fails to serve you but those you support. The New Moon boosts your self-belief. Whatever you focus on, you can accomplish. The New Moon adds to this week's thrilling cosmic climate. For positive news, call 0906 751 5604.
LEO
July 24 - August 23
The New Moon, in your sign, is empowering you with the ability to action the changes you want to see. That agenda, the one simmering on the back burner? Turn up the heat. Where other people need support? You've more than enough energy to go round. Your hard-earned talents are not only being recognised, they're in demand. With your enthusiasm you can help nurture a good idea into a well-designed action plan. Your advice will be valued and appreciated. Go for it! Take advantage of the New Moon in your sign. You can change your life. Call 0906 751 5605.
VIRGO
August 24 - September 23
Humans are complex, multifaceted creatures. We change the way we respond and react according to how we feel, who we're with and what we're talking about. The fact that our behaviour is inconsistent isn't a problem. It means we're adaptable — which is something to be applauded (not criticised). Don't feel bad just because an opinion you once held with conviction is shifting. It was appropriate at the time. But the times have changed. You're replacing it with a viewpoint that will benefit you (and others). Under the powerful New Moon your future can be revealed and changed. Call 0906 751 5606.
LIBRA
September 24 - October 23
It's easy when you know how to do something; you set about it confidently. It's when you're uncertain about something that life feels like a rollercoaster of learning curves. If you feel like you're trying to navigate unknown territory (without Google maps), don't panic. Under the New Moon, your inner compass is working even more effectively than usual. Be guided by your intuition. It knows, without doubt, exactly which direction you need to follow. Take the first step, and the road ahead will be straightforward. What will the New Moon reveal? For news that will make your spine tingle, call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO
October 24 - November 22
Astrologers are a bit like passenger information systems at train stations. They let everyone know which platform to go to in order to get to a specific destination, but they don't force anyone to take a ride. We can point people in the direction of express trains and identify the ones with comfy seats. The choice about whether to board, though, is entirely up to you. No one's going to oblige you to take the opportunity the New Moon brings. Yet, if you seize it, you'll find yourself en route to a delightful surprise. Big changes are due between now and the next Full Moon. For insight, call 0906 751 5608.
SAGITTARIUS
November 23 - December 21
Getting on with some people is as easy as breathing. With others, though, the mere sound of their breath can be annoying! They get under our skin. This is unintentional . . . they don't have a list of things to annoy us. And since it's hard to explain why we feel this way, sometimes we defend ourselves by not responding. Today, don't waste energy overreacting to either a situation or a person. Rise above any irritation. The New Moon heralds an opportunity you don't want to waste. Let the powerful New Moon guide you to the future you long for. Call your latest forecast: 0906 751 5609.
CAPRICORN
December 22 - January 20
Wake up. Get out of bed. Eat. Get on with your day. Eat again. Carry on with your day. Eat more. Go out with friends or try to relax. Go to bed. Start again. That, in a nutshell, is (for most of us) life on planet Earth. Surely there's more to it than that? Of course! There are all the challenges that come with relationships. There are financial issues to deal with. Is that it? What about love, laughter and other qualities that transform the humdrum? The New Moon highlights positives in your world. The New Moon brings transformation. Your latest forecast has news you don't want to miss. Call 0906 751 5610.
AQUARIUS
January 21 - February 19
The scenario you're dealing with is so strange it hardly seems real. It's making you confused about how to proceed. It almost feels as if you're moving through a dream or have woken up to the reality of a previous decision. No wonder you're unsure how to respond to developments. You're trying to anticipate problems before they could overwhelm you. But what if it's just taking you a while to adjust to a new (improved) reality? The challenge you think you face is easier than you think. Change your future! Be empowered by the New Moon energy. For great advice, call 0906 751 5611.
PISCES
February 20 - March 20
You need to do whatever you can to ignore criticism today. It seems you're under pressure to make a decision and someone's trying all sorts of tactics to speed up this process. Take a deep breath and refuse to respond to the sense of urgency they're encouraging you to feel. There's no need to rush as any deadlines can be deferred. Under the New Moon you might not be able to take it easy but you can definitely afford to proceed at a more relaxed and comfortable pace. If you do that, you'll be surprised at what you can achieve. Let the powerful New Moon reveal your future. For four minutes of insight, call 0906 751 5612.
