Aries

Other people seem to be getting in your way, or doing things that are distinctly unhelpful, so bite your tongue. But with the Moon sparking off fierce Mars and grim Saturn, you only grit your teeth for so long, then you let fly. It's not easy to be assertive in a calm, steady way in these trying circumstances. Everything you have swept under the carpet at home or in the family wants to come out into the open.

Taurus

There's no point in giving up in disgust -- tackle problems head on in a persistent, rational way. Focus on the essentials and keep quietly forging your way ahead and you will suddenly find the road clears in front of you. Restrictive Saturn could create obstacles, setbacks and delays, so a breakdown in communication is quite likely.

Gemini

Try to keep up your confidence at the moment. Saturn has a nasty habit of denting your self-esteem, so you feel that whatever it is you do isn't going to work particularly well. If you start with a negative attitude, then quite often you create your own bad luck. So think positively and put your best foot forward, but cautiously. Tightening your belt may be necessary for a brief while but there is nothing catastrophic about cash shortages.

Cancer

Fuming, fretting and complaining isn't getting you anywhere fast; there is a temporary road block ahead and you have to wait for it to clear, or alternatively, you could chip away at whatever stands in your path. All you need is determination and perseverance and you'll win through eventually. You may find your energy levels are low so you don't have the inclination to work quite as hard as usual.

Leo

The Moon is in a sticky aspect to Saturn and Mars, the baddies of the zodiac, so you may feel as if you're stuck in a rut with low energy. You're clenching your teeth with frustration, feeling irritable, and could even be slightly accident-prone, so be careful. The main thing to remember is that it will pass. On the positive side, this energy helps you focus on essentials and keep your nose to the grindstone. You are essentially a good organiser, but you have to force yourself to take charge of things at the moment.

Virgo

Authority figures may be a bit of a problem today, telling you what you do. It's important not to let them get to you too much - just knuckle down and be true to yourself. If you work very hard you will achieve something, admittedly modest, but it will last over time. Don't be discouraged if disagreements flare up, or if your team mates don't seem to appreciate you.

Libra

You feel cut off from the important people in your life just briefly - or perhaps you just see it that way. Actually, you are alienating your deepest feelings, because you think you might not like what you find. Try to ease up, be honest with yourself and everything will fall into place. If the foundations you have laid in your career in the past are solid, now is your time to flourish.

Scorpio

You may feel life is slower and practically in reverse for a day or so. If you can resign yourself to this without becoming discouraged, then it will pass. Whenever you feel hemmed in, you tend to get irritable but don't say too much in the heat of the moment. You're thinking seriously about education, philosophical and even spiritual matters now. Life may test out your old opinions by setting up arguments for you.

Sagittarius

Channel your energy into rather narrow tasks. Focus your concentration and motivation in a self-disciplined way, then you can sort out those detailed tasks. But be careful as you go, since you might just trip over your feet or be slightly accident-prone. Joint finances may be tighter now, or your partner's cash situation is such that they cannot be as generous as they once were.

Capricorn

Don't get yourself in a stew by worrying than is entirely necessary. Get a grip of your concerns, look at the bottom line, and you will find it all becomes much easier thereafter. Although you now tend to look at the flaws in your close partnerships, that does not need to mean they will end. Only unsatisfying affairs of the heart or shaky business relationships will come to grief now.

Aquarius

The Moon clashing with high voltage Mars and sober Saturn means problems are to be expected. If things are not going quite as well as you'd planned, just remember that patience will help. Don't duck and dive to avoid the problem, but work quietly and persistently at trying to remove or overcome it. Undoubtedly you may feel over stressed at times and under appreciated for your efforts but this is a time of laying solid foundations for the future.

Pisces

Don't let feelings of inadequacy hold you back. Proceed slowly and pay particular attention to detail. You can only do so much, and not all your achievements can be spectacular. Romance and your social life seem more like work than work itself at times. Loved ones feel like a heavy responsibility now, but out of this testing time comes some truly valuable insights which will give you strength in the future.
