Gemini 22 May - 21 June... Your social life sizzles with promise, as go-getter Mars causes a stir in your friendship sector for some weeks.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Other people can have a bigger influence than usual on you, and this is largely in a positive way, Libra. With jubilant Jupiter already in your sector of relating, they may encourage, motivate and act as teachers or guides.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... Ready for some big adventures, Archer? As warrior Mars enters your leisure zone and joins Jupiter, you'll be eager to try something different, and perhaps riskier than your usual activities.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Whether you'd planned on making changes to your home or family situation, or not, you may do so anyway, as focused Mars enters this sector.

It's a work in progress, so there's no need to attempt this all at once. Take your time, Capricorn!

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... If ever there was a time to put yourself forward, this is it.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... This can be an empowering time for finances as Mars stirs up your money zone, encouraging you to make the most of opportunities to enhance your income. You may be ready to go in search of them, or even to create them if there are none to hand. It pays to watch spending though, as even a decision to be careful could be overridden by an impulsive urge to buy something, Pisces.
