As Mars forms an intriguing relationship with Jupiter, you must therefore expect a battle of wills, perhaps over some issue of principle or other. It's a time to exaggerate and claim more than your due!

You can stand any amount of competition and rivalry and still come out on top, such is the miraculous protection you receive from Venus, the irrepressible planet of friendship.

You have a great deal to look forward to over the coming months. However, a sudden enthusiasm may be stalled,

perhaps by lack of money. But you may receive help from experienced people.

You are anxious to avoid encounters which could take place if you were absolutely honest and open about your intentions. You have every right to keep your feelings to yourself.

You have started to come out of your shell. Never lose sight of the knowledge that a general sense of personal satisfaction is more important to you than are the precise details of work and family chores.

This is one of the most demanding periods home, not because you're facing difficulties but on the fact that your planetary cycles gather in the same region of your chart. You will decide major improvements are long overdue.

Continue your current policy of friendliness & adventure. You must have realised that it's much more pleasant to be happy & optimistic than to be constantly looking out for problems.

You will be more willing than ever to give others the benefit of the doubt. Your open-minded tolerance is one of your greatest qualities - harmony and cooperation must be your watchwords.

The week's events will demonstrate a tendency to spin out of control. You can do your bit by maintaining a sense that ethics & morality matter more than personal gain & advantage. You are the perfect person to keep others in line.

Everything's in a state of flux, so you should be in your element. After all you hate to be tied down to the same daily rut which afflicts so many of your friends. Best of all, someone is about to set your heart fluttering.
