Aries 21 March - 20 April... An intense Moon-Pluto angle could bring up powerful feelings in a social setting, and certain topics may be a lot more sensitive than you think. A minor remark could spark a row, so test the water before you say anything that could be taken the wrong way. Still, if you need to clear the air, honest but tactful conversations can soon help you smooth things over.

Taurus 21 April - 21 May... A potent influence suggests that relationship dynamics and career pressures could conflict in uncomfortable but revealing ways. Something may come to light that needs delicate discussion, and how you handle it could be key to the bond's future. If it's a fraught subject, then tread with care, as saying the wrong thing could make matters worse, Taurus.

Gemini 22 May - 21 June... An incident at work or in the day might spark thoughts about the meaning of life and your purpose. Job pressures, wellness issues or other responsibilities could leave you wondering what the point of it all is. Yet, today's Moon-Pluto link could reveal a chink of light, opening up more sparkling options. Focusing on the bigger picture could also help reset the balance.

Cancer 22 June - 23 July... Passion shimmers in the air, but due to not wanting to be hurt, you might force those feelings down and pretend to be cool or even indifferent. Your defences may be so firmly in place that you could let a golden opportunity for a romance or even a friendship pass you by. Why not let go and go with the flow? It may not work out, but if it does, it could be a gamechanger.

Leo 24 July - 23 August... Emotional undercurrents may feel stronger than usual today, especially when it comes to family and partnerships. Zooming out and taking a detached perspective could help you do and say the right thing. Even so, the temptation to plunge in and have your say could be strong. Avoid power games, as honest discussion is much better for all concerned.

Virgo 24 August - 23 September... Conversations about daily responsibilities or aspects of your job could be highly charged due to the intense Moon-Pluto link. Minor misunderstandings might escalate if you and others express your annoyance through forced silence or stilted emails. Be the one to bring this matter into the open using diplomacy, and things could soon shift, bringing peace and productivity.

Libra 24 September - 23 October... Something or someone could challenge your sense of self-worth in a big way. It may be a romantic situation, a creative project or a bold idea in which you'll need to put yourself on the line. You might feel torn between playing it safe and following your heart into unpredictable territory. Wondering if it's worth taking a risk? Self-reflection could help you decide.

Scorpio 24 October - 22 November... With the Moon in your sign angling towards Pluto in Aquarius, powerful emotions linked to family affairs may rise to the surface. This is one of those times when a conversation could dredge up old wounds and cause ill feelings. It doesn't have to be like this, as with sensitivity, you can encourage a more productive discussion that eases matters rather than causes hurt.

Sagittarius 23 November - 21 December... Buried feelings and restless thoughts could stir beneath your optimistic outlook as old worries might play on your mind. Some quiet time may be useful now, and so much better than acting on impulse or trying to joke your way out of any emotions you don't want to feel. For best results, it also helps to pay attention to dreams, intuition and whatever remains unspoken.

Capricorn 22 December - 20 January... Since Pluto entered your financial sector, you've likely become aware of the subtleties of give and take in any situation and where they may be unbalanced. With the Scorpio Moon in the mix, you may get an insight into a social relationship in which you're giving too much and getting little in return. Want to sort this out? An honest conversation may be the only way.

Aquarius 21 January - 19 February... With Pluto in your sign, you're changing rapidly, and others might not recognise the person emerging from the process. Certain professional issues could trigger questions about power, authority and your place in the world. What will the next big shift involve? Today's lunar tie hints at a journey in which you take control of your destiny and finally feel fully in charge.

Pisces 20 February - 20 March... Old fears could cause a dip in confidence, especially if you're considering doing something fresh and different that takes you out of your comfort zone. You may even be tempted to escape through avoidance or by daydreaming, rather than meet any challenges head-on. But something else can stir in you today, inspiring you not to give up or give in, but to have a go.
