Aries
Your heart is in the right place and everyone knows it - but with the naughty planetary influences around you, they're not sure where you're coming from. If you're a bit scatty today thanks to the powerful annular solar eclipse just after the mighty Solar Orb heads into Gemini, be sure to collect your thoughts before you dash into things. You need more method and discipline in your everyday schedules, and this is the day to start. Rams always stand out from the crowd and rarely fit into the common mould. You are going to make an impression.
Taurus
Today's New Moon in Gemini brings a powerful solar eclipse. This demands new beginnings, so think about the next six months or even a year ahead and work out where you want to be financially, as well as emotionally. Once you have set your goals, you need to implement a practical plan for fulfilling them. You can't just hope it all shakes down. Give yourself a push. Things are beginning to bubble to the surface or come out into the open in unexpected ways.
Gemini
You're self sufficient and self absorbed today. No wonder! The New Moon brings a solar eclipse in your sign now, so your personal magnetism is magnificent and any projects you start are bound to succeed. You want to be the centre of attention all day. Team dynamics are tricky at the moment as the focus is on you, but if you keep your ego under control, you can steer them in the right direction. Keep your temper under control.
Cancer
Don't expect anything major today. The Moon is your cosmic ruler, so the New Moon, a solar eclipse in your twelfth house of secrets, urges you to put your wholehearted attention behind the scenes into whatever you want to put into place over the next year. At work, you have to watch a tendency to act erratically. You crave excitement, so if you get into a situation which feels too secure, you'll rock the boat. The trick is to find positive outlets for your energy.
Leo
With a New Moon that is also a powerful annular eclipse, all those plans you have been mulling over in recent days can now be put into action. Old ways are falling by the wayside, so write down your game plan for the next twelve months, step by step. Make some firm decisions and put them into action. In spiritual matters you will be experimenting and challenging everyone else's views. Travel your own road no matter what, and don't bother with what anyone else thinks or says, no matter how influential they may be.
Virgo
Today's New Moon, a solar eclipse in Gemini stimulates new projects for Virgo. To give your reputation a boost and get the recognition your talents deserve, you know that you cannot rest on your laurels. Give those new projects a hefty push to make sure that you are building for your future. Get your head and your heart together and make it happen. Your thoughts are pulling together as Mercury moves to an alliance with Jupiter, so it is wise to make long term commitments, whether financial or emotional.
Libra
Out with the old and in with the New Moon! This is the time of year when you review your beliefs, whether it be to do with politics, education or just your philosophy of living and the solar eclipse presents an ideal energy to break with the past and make a new start. Your outlook doesn't remain static from childhood to old age -- you constantly discard what no longer fits and take in new information which causes you to alter your approach. Let your imagination soar; aim to paint on a broader canvas, with or without the support of others. You need an independent partner, too.
Scorpio
Your feelings are more intense than usual under the New Moon, because it's a powerful solar eclipse. They are telling you what you need to know about an intimate partnership. If you can lay your cards on the table in private, you'll get a better insight into how to deal with similar situations in the future. What you need at work is a good deal more freedom to express yourself and utilise your talents. If you no longer wish to fulfill other people's expectations, following orders is not as easy as it once was.
Sagittarius
With the New Moon, a solar eclipse in Gemini, there's no doubt that you need someone to make you feel whole before you feel secure in whatever you're doing at play or at work. The movement of the Sun into your seventh house especially at an eclipse focuses your mind all month on the needs of your significant others. Make a decision to be less self-sufficient and more adaptable; that's if you want your partner to be on your wavelength! Give before you get; it will be worth it.
Capricorn
The New Moon Solar Eclipse creates circumstances that are right to reorganise some of your working methods. If you can tap into your strong self- discipline, you can clear up problems before they happen. Make a new start with your heaklth too. Why not join a gym? The home you want now is more individually tailored to meet your personal needs. Uranus is stirring trouble in home and family matters, so aim for an unusual domestic setting without too many ties, or rules and regulations.
Aquarius
This is your day to shine without apology or self-consciousness. Most of us hide away parts of ourselves we think others might not like or approve. Throw away your inhibitions and just express who you are and what you feel. The right people will respond very positively. With the New Moon, a solar eclipse, you are inventive in your thinking and speaking, ready and on the button; but you can also be absent-minded.
Pisces
If there have been family rifts or differences recently, the New Moon, a solar eclipse in Gemini, urges you to wipe the slate clean and start again. Don't wait to be approached -- reach out and spread a little harmony. More for your own sake than anything else, you seek peace and calm. It's the right time to be idealistic about money now, not bogged down in petty materialistic concerns. Money should be used for humanitarian purposes.
