CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Liv Ulmann, Melanie Smith, Ben Cross, Lesley Stahl, Steven Bochco, Michael McCary, William Refrigerator Perry, Hallee Hirsh, Benjamin Bratt, Alison La Placa.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): It's a day where you can take full advantage of the calmer vibe without incurring any of yesterday's cosmic penalties. You'll have the objectivity required to see what needs doing and it'll be possible to work on one specific issue or development. As an aside; there's likely to be a good reason for a slight disappointment!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If yesterday was a little misleading, then today should prove to be somewhat easier, thanks to a significantly reduced vibe. That said; don't assume that everyone will be of one mind, especially when it comes to an incomplete matter. Full agreements will be possible but they may take time!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Given the imminent planetary shifts, it's perhaps not the best day for new ventures, since your approach and/or response to a specific development could be unusually limited. It's perhaps a better day to commit your time to the less visible but necessary background work!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The general vibe may continue to be a trace unreliable, but there is scope for securing your personal resources, since problem-spotting may be your hidden strength. Although it's not a day primed for significant material gains, you could still pave the way for a rather modest but welcome improvement!

LEO (July 23-Aug 22): If yesterday felt a little restricted then today may bring a more flexible vibe, although there may be a subtle downside, particularly in the workplace. A rather obstinate frame-of-mind on your part could create minor tensions rather than ease them. In addition, there's a slight propensity to hold your cards close to your chest!

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22): It's an easier day when it comes to dealing with others. That said; you may find that you need to make amends for a recent and possibly thoughtless exchange. In addition; you may just strike the right balance when it comes to a calculated risk over a decision, but you can't really afford to be blas about it!

LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22): A distinctly haphazard vibe is likely to promise more than it can feasibly deliver. Do be careful how you interpret certain responses from others: imminent planetary shifts indicate that incoming news regarding a personal matter may well be incomplete. It may be best to steer clear of lackluster solutions and half measures too!

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21): Although a strong Jupiter/moon mix is likely to offer a little guidance when it comes to a couple of very minor either/or choices, you may still be ultra-sensitive to the slightly fretful vibe in the background. That said; clearing the air may well bring a subtle advantage, if you go the right way about it!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): It could feel as though imminent planetary shifts are beginning to hone in on one particular matter. This matter could be in a state of flux itself. There may be an additional feeling of pressure to get it resolved. That said; it may not be a good idea to rush or to resort to impulsive decisions!

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): It's a good day if you can strike the right balance between two entirely separate matters, quite possibly one from the very recent past and one bubbling in the very near future. If you dedicate all your time and energy to one, you may find that the other develops minor complications!

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): A subtle communication gap may develop early on and it may be hard to bridge, especially when it comes to personal matters. A highly subtle shift in your expectations may be the root cause of this gap. Imminent planetary changes suggest that those expectations may need a little more fine-tuning!

PISCES (Feb 19-March 20): Increased sensitivity and high levels of perception come with an up-side and a down- side. A reoccurring issue, possibly related to a work-based either/or choice, could resurface again. It'll be best to react logically to this development. Don't allow emotions to dictate a practical decision!

FOR THOSE OF US BORN ON THIS DAY: Happy Birthday! The months ahead are likely to start on a very strong note with regards to your finances, but on a weaker note in terms of your personal relationships. A bid for freedom and independence suggests that you'll be reluctant to commit yourself totally, but as you move through to March so you'll get back in touch with your emotions. April should see a massive upturn in your luck - maybe buying one or two lottery tickets could secure you a little win, while the summer looks set to introduce some much needed fun after all the hard work. Romance will hit its peak throughout the early autumn, with a number of powerful influences bringing you some wonderful romantic moments! Towards the end of the year you will need to watch out for a financial opportunity that may not be all that it seems.

CELEBRITY GOSSIP: Rita Ora has been working hard to keep herself in the public eye in recent months as she is keen to maintain her position in what is a highly competitive entertainment world. Unfortunately, for Rita, the planets are telling us that her career may have already reached its peak and is now on an inevitable downward slide!
