Today's New Moon falls in your own sign, promising that 2006 will be full of changes and fresh starts. There will be even more of these if it happens to be your birthday today.

Dynamic colours are magenta and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 12 and 29.
 
Today's New Moon ushers you into 2006 with a spring in your step and a determination to brighten up your daily routine. The sky's the limit. This is also the time to think about ways of boosting your health and general well-being, especially if you've tended to take them for granted recently. You probably already know what you should do, but seek medical advice if you know you need to take yourself in hand but haven't a clue where to start. Wild colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 13 and 36.

There could also be news of a new arrival in the family. Dynamic colours are crimson and silver. Lucky numbers are 14 and 7.
 
As 2005 comes to an end and 2006 beckons, you're in a very single-minded state.

Today's New Moon will fill you with enthusiasm and excitement about your prospects for 2006. Be adventurous and prepared to take chances in the year ahead, especially if you're usually rather conservative and timid.

Exciting colours are shimmering blue and shimmering purple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 18.
 
It's New Year's Eve and you're thinking along serious lines. Write down a list of New Year resolutions and mull over recent events so you can learn from them. Try not to become so wrapped up in particular thoughts or ideas that you can't get them out of your brain. Keep a close eye on personal belongings because you'll waste ages looking for them once you've mislaid them. Dazzling colours are iridescent purple and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 17.
 
As New Year's Eve arrives it brings with it a New Moon, which is a pretty auspicious start to 2006 and the coming fortnight will be a great opportunity to face up to anything that's bothering you at the moment so you can do something about it. There could also be a breakthrough over something connected with an institution, such as a hospital. Dynamic colours are electric blue and electric green. Lucky numbers are 21 and 2.
 
You're in a very reflective frame of mind little Fishies and at times it will be hard to connect with the rest of the world because you're so wrapped up in your thoughts. You might even develop a one-track mind about something that you consider to be important, but don't become so focused on it that you get tunnel vision and can't appreciate anyone else's point of view. Set aside some time to write down your New Year resolutions, so you can start to work on them. There's no time like the present! Dynamic colours are shimmering gold and shimmering silver. Lucky numbers are 24 and 28.
 
It may be the end of 2005 but today's New Moon is turning your thoughts in the direction of the coming year.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 15.
 
You're lost in your own thoughts today, putting you in a reflective frame of mind. You're feeling things very deeply and intensely right now, which means you could get swept away by your emotions. Take care not to brood about anything that's bothering you because then it will be hard to shake off your thoughts and concentrate on anything else. Favourable colours are violet and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 54.
 
Make the last day of 2005 really count. You're looking for meaningful events and encounters, and you won't be satisfied until you get them. This means you won't be happy with trivial conversations and will want to take them to a much deeper level. Right now, everything in your life takes on extra significance and intensity, and you want others to share in that too. Fortunate colours are lemon and coffee. Lucky numbers are 5 and 5.
 
Everything you do is tinged with extra significance today. This is lovely if you're happy and with people you care about, but it won't be so good if you're feeling fed up and are having a difficult time because all your problems will be magnified. Do your best to keep things in proportion no matter what happens and not to read more into situations than they merit. Stabilising colours are russet and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 17.
 
Get together with friends today, especially if you haven't seen them recently. You'll enjoy having a serious chat in which you can talk about the things that really matter to you. This is also a great day for immersing yourself in a favourite hobby, particularly if you want to relax and forget about the rest of the world. Favourable colours are dark yellow and iridescent orange. Lucky numbers are 22 and 11.
 
You can't help taking things more seriously than usual today, especially if they're connected with something official or with one of your goals. You feel a tremendous intensity of purpose, but don't let that spill over into doctrinaire or controlling behaviour. Don't lose your precious sense of humour either, Pisces, when it comes to the crunch. Beneficial colours are violet and lavender. Lucky numbers are 25 and 31.
 
This is always an expensive time of year, so it's important that you keep track of everything you've spent so far. This may be a prospect that fills you with dread, but it's much better to get it out of the way now than to ignore it and then have a nasty surprise later on. You could also be overwhelmed by strong feelings for a certain person now, whether you're experiencing love or loathing. Favourable colours are grapefruit and plum. Lucky numbers are 24 and 12.
 
You're taking everything rather seriously today, so that whatever is currently on your mind assumes greater significance than it probably deserves. Try not to get all steamed up about things that don't really matter a jot and which you'd usually shrug off. If you're at work, try to keep colleagues and customers sweet. Empowering colours are dark gold and rich purple. Lucky numbers are 8 and 35.
 
All your relationships have an extra intensity today and the events that take place between you and certain people will be profound and full of meaning. This could be wonderful, as you and you-know-who manage to establish an even greater bond than usual with one another. But it will also cause problems if you allow minor snags to assume monumental proportions. Keep your sense of humour! Favourable colours are mango and platinum. Lucky numbers are 24 and 20.
 
Everything seems to have greater significance for you than usual today, putting you into a rather serious mood. Do your best to cope without going off the deep end, because this influence could make you come across as intense and brooding. Have a think about your finances and work out how you can improve them in 2006. Auspicious colours are blue sapphire and burnished brass. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
 
Someone's words carry an awful lot of weight today, making you feel uncomfortable. Try not to take everything too much to heart, nor to dwell on what happens unless it's very serious. You might also spend time with someone who's a compulsive talker and who obviously doesn't know when to shut up. It could be quite exhausting! Fortunate colours are peacock blue and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 9 and 66.
 
Life is full of intensity and purpose today and if things don't pan out, you'll be upset and moody. Try not to take out your frustrations on other people, nor to make them feel that it's all their fault when you know that isn't true. Have a think about everything you learned in 2005 and write down a list of everything you hope to achieve in 2006. Harmonious colours are pale pink and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 34 and 78.
 
Emotions are rather intense today, making everything seem highly-charged and ultra-important. Do your best not to get so swept along by your profound feelings that you get things out of proportion. For instance, you might get into a stew about something or someone that hurts your feelings, and then brood about it for the rest of the day even though it isn't worth all that angst. Harmonious colours are jade and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 36 and 62.
 
It's a great day for doing things that are a little bit different, especially if you're starting to feel slightly jaded from eating and drinking too much or being out of your usual routine. If you're visiting the sales you'll enjoy seeing what's on offer and could be tempted by items that aren't your usual style. They may appeal today but if you buy them will you still like them next week? Prosperous colours are champagne and violet. Lucky numbers are 25 and 13.
 
This is a brilliant day for reviewing everything that you've achieved this year and working out what you're going to do in 2006. Don't be afraid to try new things next year, or develop that hidden side of your personality, because the mental stimulation this gives you will inspire you in all sorts of ways. So be adventurous and try some experiments! Positive colours are lime and ivory. Lucky numbers are 3 and 45.
 
You'll enjoy showing a different side to your personality today, especially if you've had to be on your best behaviour during the past few days. Well, this is a great day for letting your hair down and having some fun. And you don't have to do anything very outrageous in the process, either. It might be exactly what you need if a friend suggests doing something on the spur of the moment. Expressive colours are dark gold and rich purple. Lucky numbers are 24 and 39.
 
If you're still feeling frustrated after yesterday's twists and turns, work off steam by doing something that's completely radical or unusual. And take someone along for company if possible. You'll also enjoy exploring a side of your personality that's usually hidden away. What you don't want right now is to get bogged down in routine or to spend time with people who are totally predictable. Positive colours are ruby red and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 59.
 
Fancy seeing what the sales have to offer? Then try to be sensible about what you buy, to avoid that spend-to-save mentality that means you're looking at how much money you're saving on something rather than how much it costs to buy. Be careful about making impulse purchases because they may not be as successful as you'd hoped, and you may even go off them very quickly. Dynamic colours are purple grape and silver. Lucky numbers are 40 and 57.
 
You see someone in a completely new light today, Aries. They're showing a different side of themselves, by revealing that they aren't such a stick-in-the-mud after all, or by displaying some hidden talents. It just goes to prove the old saying that you can't judge a book by its cover. So get ready to be amazed, delighted and entertained by what happens now. Expressive colours are fuchsia and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 5 and 37.
 
Need a change of scene after the past few days? Getting bored and want some excitement?

A surprise encounter with a neighbour or close relative will take you nicely by surprise. Ideal colours are champagne and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 64.
 
You're in the mood for a change of scene and routine today, especially if you're feeling a little stale after all the celebrations.

And if you're at work, do something exciting and unusual in your free time. Favourable colours are rose quartz and white quartz. Lucky numbers are 20 and 48.
 
You enjoy showing a different side to your personality today. It might be dressing differently or doing something that's completely out of character.

Inspiring colours are caramel and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 43.
 
As 2006 approaches it's time to start thinking about your plans for the future. Write down ideas in case you forget them, or discuss your thoughts with someone who'll listen without passing judgement. This is also a fabulous day for getting together with friends, especially if you haven't seen them for a while. You'll have a great time catching up on all your news. Ideal colours are spring green and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 38 and 3.
 
You need a break after yesterday's frustrations, so do something that departs from your usual schedule. Be spontaneous and do things on the spur of the moment, as the fancy takes you. Get together with people you haven't seen recently, or who always make you feel good and bring out the best in your personality. Auspicious colours are dark grape and saffron. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
You need to be with people who are lively and interesting today. Stick-in-the-muds need not apply! They'll bring out the best in you and help you relax and enjoy yourself.

Fortunate colours are amethyst and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 8 and 41.
 
Things have been going really well recently, but you encounter a few snags today. Someone's throwing a spanner in the works, perhaps by refusing to give their consent to something or simply by being bloody-minded. Don't waste your time trying to reason with them while they're in this mood; it will only make them worse. Empowering colours are coffee and russet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 5.
 
You feel as if you're wading through treacle today and it's difficult to make much progress. In fact, if anything you seem to be moving backwards rather than forwards. It doesn't help that a certain person is being less than co-operative and agreeable. Maybe they have a point, but you don't like the way they're getting their message across. But what can you do about it? Prosperous colours are primrose yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 3 and 46.
 
Grit your teeth and prepare for a day of frustrations and difficulties. You don't seem to be making as much progress as you'd like and you may even have to cope with a major snag. If you're out and about in your car today, make sure that it's working properly. If you're travelling on public transport there could be some annoying delays or cancellations to cope with. Maybe you should allow extra time for all your journeys, just in case. Positive colours are lemon and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 21.
 
Get ready to grit your teeth as you try to cope with setbacks and difficulties. These could affect your working life, your health, a pet or travel plans. Or maybe you simply feel that you aren't making any progress in life and that, if anything, you seem to be moving backwards rather than forwards. You won't be happy about it but right now you must accept your limitations and learn from them. You certainly can't bulldoze your way through them. Soothing colours are chocolate and apricot. Lucky numbers are 27 and 58.
 
Loved ones aren't at their most co-operative today, so take note if you're hoping to persuade someone to do you a favour as it's a waste of time and lead to a lot of resentment. This is a day for accepting your limitations, and those of other people, and acting accordingly. Yes, it's frustrating but there's nothing you can do about it right now. Energising colours are plum and cream. Lucky numbers are 29 and 59.
 
Someone isn't being very helpful today, much to your disappointment. They may even be going out of their way to be unhelpful, by backtracking on something they'd agreed to earlier or not giving you the support you were expecting. Unfortunately there's little you can do about this, other than to accept it and to work around it. But it looks as though you'll have to change your plans. Opportunistic colours are maroon and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 58 and 4.
 
Someone wants to make your life difficult today - they're standing in your way over something or they aren't being nearly as helpful as you'd hoped. There could also be difficulties if you're trying to get a project off the ground, because you may hit financial snags or a lack of co-operation from some quarters. Diplomatic colours are tan and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 38 and 14.
 
The Christmas season has been pretty good so far, but you hit a snag today. Someone is a pain in the neck, and there doesn't seem to be much you can do about it. Maybe you're facing problems because this person is busy reminding you who they are, and how they're in a position of authority over you. Or perhaps they seem to be busy putting spokes in your wheels, so you can't make any progress while they're in their current mood. It sounds as though you need to be patient. Sunny colours are yellow and green. Lucky numbers are 20 and 13.
 
Life is rather difficult today, unfortunately. Someone is being obstructive and unhelpful, so you feel they're standing in your way or deliberately snookering whatever you're trying to achieve. Although you're angry with them for the way they're behaving, there may be good reasons why you can't show your feelings, such as the fact that they're your boss. Advantageous colours are blackberry and plum. Lucky numbers are 21 and 71.
 
Someone is being rather difficult today. They seem to be doing their best to trample all over your dreams and ideas, or to say things that leave you feeling worried and anxious. Or are you reading too much into the situation? Try to rise above it rather than to get sucked down into it. And don't tell yourself that the world is against you because it may not be nearly as bad as that. Inspiring colours are navy and dark red. Lucky numbers are 27 and 9.
 
Get set for a rather frustrating day in which you don't make as much progress as you'd like. Someone isn't around to give you the help you need or things simply don't go according to plan. It's irritating but there doesn't seem to be much you can do about it. You should certainly avoid forcing the issue because that won't get you anywhere either. Uplifting colours are mauve and violet. Lucky numbers are 23 and 42.
 
Someone is being uncompromising and unhelpful and you won't be able to budge them. They've dug their heels in and that's that. This means you must either hope that they'll change their tune over the next few days or alter your strategy. And before you put all the blame on their shoulders, consider whether they may have a good point that you've chosen to ignore. Inspirational colours are magenta and coffee. Lucky numbers are 3 and 25.
 
Are you feeling tired? You're struggling to keep your thoughts in any sort of order because they keep wandering all over the place. Maybe you're anxious about something and can't get it out of your mind, or perhaps you simply feel you have mental overload and need to be left alone for a while. Fortunate colours are pale grey and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 38 and 47.
 
It's another day when you enjoy being with friends and other people who are on your wavelength. You're feeling gregarious and warm- hearted right now, and keen to put other people at their ease. If you're going to a party or gathering you'll enjoy chatting to whoever happens to be around, even if you've never met them before. Fortunate colours are tangerine and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 7 and 42.
 
It's a fantastic day because you're radiating bonhomie and magnanimity, so all your relationships flow smoothly and happily. You're also feeling very patient and tolerant, and are willing to overlook someone's bad behaviour if necessary. However, it's unlikely that anyone will blot their copybook like this because you have a tendency to bring out the best in them right now. Positive colours are tangerine and jade. Lucky numbers are 16 and 43.
 
Confusion is in the stars, so be as organized and practical as possible. There could also be a mix-up about a forthcoming social event, so check all the details just to make sure. If you're off to the sales, keep a close eye on your wallet and other possessions, in case you lose them either through carelessness or theft. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 3 and 57.
 
It's another day when you'll enjoy being left alone every now and then, even if that means shutting yourself in the kitchen while the rest of the family makes a racket in the other room. You're in need of some time to reflect on everything that's happened to you this year, and to prepare yourself for 2006. At some point today you may be asked to help someone in need. Fortunate colours are peacock blue and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 5 and 26.
 
It's time to take a breather and relax for a while. Christmas was a busy period for you and you're now starting to flag. Try to get the chores out of the way as quickly as possible, so you can flop on the sofa with a clear conscience. If your mind is whirling, it might help to listen to some music or watch a film that's nothing short of total escapism. Ideal colours are jade and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 12 and 75.
 
You're having a really good time at the moment and today is no exception. Get together with some friends or close relatives, or invite the neighbours round for a drink.

Ideal colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 28 and 23.
 
You're feeling slightly spaced out today, so don't do anything too strenuous or complicated if you can avoid it. Ideally, you'd like to flop on the sofa or spend the day in front of the television. Watch what you eat and drink because your system is quite sensitive. Be particularly careful with things that often don't agree with you, because they're even more likely to upset you right now. Fortunate colours are saffron and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 32 and 51.
 
Today, you're feeling self indulgent and why not?. You can have a fantastic time luxuriating at home with your feet up, or maybe you've had enough domestic bliss for the time being and would prefer to see what's on offer in the Christmas sales. Be careful if you do go to the sales because you'll be tempted to splurge in all directions. Which could be expensive. Fortunate colours are turquoise and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 37 and 65.
 
You're in a great mood today, my lovely Scorpions. You're feeling upbeat, gregarious and enthusiastic, and ready to make the most of the day. Whatever you're doing, whether you're still on holiday or back at work, you'll have a good time doing it. You're in the mood to go the whole hog. Bear that in mind if you go out on the town, because you'll want to go for broke. Auspicious colours are charcoal and lilac. Lucky numbers are 24 and 9.
 
This is a lovely day for enjoying your creature comforts whenever you get the chance. Pull up a chair and relax! It's also a wonderful opportunity to spend time with some of your close family, even if you don't do anything very special together.

Auspicious colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 47.
 
You're having a really good time at the moment and today is no exception. It's ideal for doing things that you always enjoy, whether they involve your friends or loved ones.

You'll also enjoy gloating over your Christmas presents or doing something creative. Energising colours are smoky quartz and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 6 and 55.
 
If you worked hard yesterday you'll enjoy putting your feet up and letting someone else take over today. You're much more interested in having some interesting conversations and, preferably, in having a change of scene at some point. Get out for a walk or jump in the car and go for a drive, otherwise you'll start to feel slightly bored and stale. Favourable colours are scarlet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 21 and 64.
 
This is a good day for being with people who are older, wiser or more influential than you. That might mean spending time with older relatives or visiting an elderly neighbour. At some point, though, you'll appreciate having some time to yourself, especially if yesterday was quite busy. At the moment you need plenty of peace and quiet, so grab some when you have the chance. Vibrant colours are pistachio and ginger. Lucky numbers are 12 and 20.
 
This is a wonderful day for catching up with some of the people you didn't see yesterday. You're feeling sociable and friendly, and you'll enjoy chatting to whoever happens to be around.

Lucky numbers are 26 and 52.
 
This is a day for being bright, bubbly and sparky, especially if you're getting together with people you didn't see yesterday.

You're in a very broadminded state right now, making you prepared to take people as you find them without wanting to change them into something they're not. Dynamic colours are bright pink and bright purple. Lucky numbers are 1 and 49.
 
You're still in a jolly mood and making an effort to get on well with whoever happens to be around.

If you don't have any plans today, it would be a good idea to visit some of the people you didn't manage to see yesterday.

You're still in the sort of mood where you're happy to consider everyone's needs and not just your own. Favourable colours are bronze and dark red. Lucky numbers are 39 and 61.
 
As far as you're concerned, this is a day for enjoying your creature comforts and not doing anything very strenuous. Your ideal is to relax at home, eating leftovers from yesterday so you don't have to do any cooking, and watching some of your favourite DVDs or television programmes. You'll also enjoy having a look at your presents if there wasn't much chance for that yesterday. Positive colours are copper and ivory. Lucky numbers are 3 and 68.
 
You'll appreciate having some time to yourself today. It's not that you're feeling antisocial or unfriendly, simply that you're longing for some peace and quiet so you can catch your breath. There are also certain things that you need to mull over, and you won't be able to do that if you're surrounded by lots of people. Mind you, this might be easier said than done! Ideal colours are crushed strawberry and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 68.
 
Yesterday was good fun but you'd like to take things a little easier today. Maybe you simply want to potter around at home, eating up the leftovers and looking at your Christmas presents.

Lucky numbers are 34 and 53.
 
Once again you're in a happy-go-lucky mood, and ready to take people as you find them. This is guaranteed to make the day go with a swing, and your tolerance will help to make it a stress-free day.

Fortunate colours are sapphire and lavender. Lucky numbers are 37 and 61.
 
It's another sociable and happy day and you'll enjoy mixing with people who make you laugh. This is a particularly good day for being entertained rather than being the one who's doing the entertaining, and you'll do your best to be a good guest. Besides, it will be a lovely opportunity to get dressed up and make sure you're looking stunning. Fortunate colours are lavender and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 23.

You're in a very good mood and you want to make sure that everyone has a really great time today.

Lucky numbers are 5 and 53.
 
You're in exactly the right mood to have an enjoyable, festive and happy Christmas. You're feeling friendly, welcoming and patient, and you'll do your very best to make sure that everyone has a good time.

Harmonious colours are copper and dark green. Lucky numbers are 11 and 71.
 
You're all set for a really happy Christmas, and there's no need to worry about any festive spats because everyone is working hard to keep everyone else sweet.

It promises to be a really enjoyable day, thanks to your patience and ability to get on well with whoever happens to be around. If you haven't heard from a friend recently, why not give them a ring to see how they are. Or maybe you'd prefer to send them an email. Your hunches are surprisingly accurate right now, so don't ignore them when they want to get your attention. Vibrant colours are golden green and iridescent red. Lucky numbers are 36 and 67.
 
After the scramble to get ready for the big day, you're feeling peaceful, calm and happy and your relaxed mood will rub off on everyone you come in contact with. Spare a thought for people you know who are on their own today or who are having a hard time. Give them a ring, call in to see them, invite them to join in the festivities or do something else that lets them know you're thinking of them. Festive colours are dark red and avocado. Lucky numbers are 16 and 24.
 
You're feeling great and you want everyone else to enjoy themselves as well. Christmas can be rather a fraught time but you're determined to spread peace and harmony wherever you go and not to be fazed by anything that happens. As a result, you'll be amazingly tolerant and good-humoured, even with people who often drive you to distraction. Fortunate colours are sunshine yellow and silver. Lucky numbers are 39 and 42.
 
You're in a very relaxed and easy-going mood, which is ideal for a happy Christmas. You're prepared to take people as you find them instead of wishing they could be something they're not, and you're also ready to overlook their strange little foibles. Such generosity of spirit will encourage everyone else to be equally tolerant and forgiving. Ideal colours are shimmering gold and spring green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 46.
 
You're going to have a fantastic Christmas because everyone is on their best behaviour and anxious to make the day go with a swing. Certain people who are normally quite difficult even behave themselves, which will come as a pleasant surprise. Trust your instincts when talking to people, and don't mention things that you sense are off-limits. You don't want to spoil the day by saying the wrong thing. Exuberant colours are holly berry red and holly leaf green. Lucky numbers are 23 and 11.
 
Happy Christmas! You're going to have a wonderful day because you're in such a great mood. Trust your instincts when dealing with other people today because these will tell you how to talk to them. There may be topics that you'll realize you should avoid mentioning. You might also spend time with someone who's completely on your wavelength. Dynamic colours are bright red and gold. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
 
The big day has arrived and the Stars say things will go well. Ideally, you should alternate being sociable with having some time to yourself if at all possible, because you're in a reflective and contemplative mood. Trust your instincts to say and do the right thing because they are pretty spot on at the moment. Enjoy! Harmonious colours are silvery green and dark red. Lucky numbers are 38 and 7.
 
You're rushing around like a mad thing today but you're enjoying it, all the same. It feels good to be buzzing like this, and to feel that you're getting a lot done. You certainly need to keep on the go today, so you can burn up your excess nervous energy. But if you're in a hurry, try to avoid talkative friends or neighbours because they won't know when to shut up and they'll slow you down. Propitious colours are indigo and mango. Lucky numbers are 34 and 54.
 
You're rushed off your feet but it would be a shame to spend the day working when you have the opportunity to enjoy yourself at social gatherings.

Revealing colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 7 and 75.
 
You're very interested in mystical and spiritual topics today and you'll enjoy immersing yourself in them whenever you get the chance.

Favourable colours are apricot and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 3 and 29.
 
You're in a calmer mood than yesterday, even if you're still under pressure. You're taking a typically responsible attitude to everything you do and you aren't in such a flap about it. If you don't think you can get everything done by yourself, concentrate on the greatest priorities and, if necessary, ask someone to give you a hand. Fortunate colours are aubergine and avocado. Lucky numbers are 30 and 6.
 
Your imagination is working well today and so are your hunches. This means you'll easily tune into other people's moods and be able to gauge how they're reacting to you, which will be very useful if you're having a conversation in which you need to tread carefully. But it isn't such good news if you're supposed to be doing something complicated or detailed because your mind will keep drifting unless you concentrate really hard. Ideal colours are caramel and aqua. Lucky numbers are 7 and 4.
 
It looks like being a busy day but luckily you're full of nervous energy and enthusiasm, which will propel you through everything you're doing. And, with luck, at the end of it all you'll be able to relax and enjoy yourself. You'll have a really good time if you can get together with some friends who are true kindred spirits. Energising colours are striped agate and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 18 and 22.
 
Yesterday it felt as though you were walking around on egg shells but you're in a much more relaxed mood today. You're also starting to feel the Christmas spirit, putting you in a sentimental and emotional frame of mind. If it's a choice between going out on the town and staying at home, you'd much rather stay close to home. Right now you want to feel cosy and safe. Empowering colours are mango and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 1 and 55.
 
This is a great day for taking stock of what you've achieved and what you still need to do. Better write a few lists so you know exactly where you stand. Besides, you'll feel more organized when you've written everything down. If you're doing some last-minute Christmas shopping you'll prefer to be by yourself. Ideal colours are parchment and copper. Lucky numbers are 1 and 12.
 
You're dashing around in several directions at once today, especially if you've left Christmas preparations until the last minute in typical Gemini fashion. Never mind, because you're determined not to let any panics spoil your day, and you'll also do your best to fit in some socializing sooner or later. You might also hear some very heartening news from a loved one. Inspirational colours are lavender and silver. Lucky numbers are 10 and 35.
 
It's Christmas Eve and you're feeling surprisingly well- organized. So get out that list you wrote the other day and consult it. Forgotten anything important? If you won't be seeing some of your close relatives during the next few days, they'll appreciate it if you give them a ring or send them a message to let them know you're thinking of them. Favourable colours are grapefruit and blackcurrant. Lucky numbers are 10 and 35.
 
No matter what else you're doing today you'll enjoy having a chat with someone dear to your heart. Maybe you haven't seen them for a while and this is your first opportunity to catch up on all the news, in which case you'll want it to be a special occasion. You should also find the time to check that you have everything you need for the next few days before the shops shut. Liberating colours are cream and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 4 and 59.
 
You're at your most organized and efficient today, which is just as well if you still have stacks of things to do.

You certainly don't want to have to do anything twice because you got it wrong first time around. Loving colours are oyster and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 47.
 
Someone is being very defensive today. They're over-reacting to everything they hear and using it as an excuse to get upset and angry. Let's hope you aren't the person who's behaving like this because it will be very exhausting for the people around you. If you're annoyed about something, get it out in the open and deal with it, so you can put it behind you. But don't take it out on innocent bystanders. Peaceful colours are pale rose and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 15 and 45.
 
Keep a strict watch over what you say today, Scorpio, in case you accidentally blurt out something that was supposed to be a secret. It will be too easy to do this and you may not even realize that you've let the cat out of the bag until someone else tells you. This certainly isn't a good day to tell anyone your secrets either, in case they can't keep the information to themselves. Positive colours are pink and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 27 and 14.
 
It looks as though there's a clash today between you and a friend, especially if the vexed topic of money comes between you.

There could also be an element of possessiveness creeping in, with one of you wanting to control the other's activities or contacts with the outside world. Healing colours are avocado and cream. Lucky numbers are 26 and 45.
 
Stay calm and don't panic. You're suddenly aware of all the things you still need to do before the big day on Sunday, and you can't help getting in a state about them. But you won't achieve anything if you start chasing your own tail or wasting your valuable energy by getting annoyed, so take a few deep breaths and then tackle the most urgent tasks first. Maybe you should ask someone to lend you a hand? Fortunate colours are ginger and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 38 and 52.
 
Keep a close eye on your spending or it will go haywire. That's especially likely if you're doing your last-minute Christmas shopping and you get into a panic about what to buy certain people. Overspending is one option, but you may not be very happy about it come the New Year when you have to add up the amount of money you burned through in December. If you aren't the one who's spending too much, a loved one is the culprit -- and you won't be very happy about it. Energising colours are dark purple and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 40 and 1.
 
It's a difficult day so take care. Someone is feeling hemmed in and trapped, especially by another person's emotional expectations or demands - perhaps yours. Watch out if you're the person who's feeling needy, possessive or suspicious because this won't go down very well with a partner. There could also be a difference of opinion about whether someone has fulfilled their obligations in a relationship and is pulling their weight. Auspicious colours are jade and amber. Lucky numbers are 27 and 1.
 
Maybe the pre-Christmas strain is starting to get to you and this looks like being a rather tense day. Are you feeling annoyed with someone or are you simply in one of those crotchety moods in which nothing anyone does is right? The better you know someone the more likely they are to get on your nerves now, so clear the air quickly rather than leaving storm clouds wherever you go. Fortunate colours are turquoise and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 32 and 65.
 
In a panic and not sure what to do first? It's one of those tricky days when there aren't enough hours in which to do everything and you're feeling frazzled. There could also be a mini drama about a work problem, a health matter or something connected with one of your pets. But don't blow it out of proportion because that will waste valuable time that would be better spent sorting out the problem. Ideal colours are lavender and aqua. Lucky numbers are 15 and 41.
 
You're worried about getting everything done in time, but there's a storm cloud hanging over your head. Are you feeling weighed down by responsibilities or fazed by the list of things you've still go to do? Don't get yourself all worked up because that will just slow you down and make you unpopular, neither of which do you want at the moment. Propitious colours are silver and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 22 and 30.
 
Someone isn't being very sensitive today. Maybe they're making crass remarks or they're saying things that are downright offensive. You won't be impressed by them and will be tempted to say something, but should you? If you do decide to speak up, try not to leave it until you're so angry that you're looking for an argument. A few tactful comments early on would be better than a full-scale shouting match when you can't stand it any longer. Harmonious colours are gold and avocado. Lucky numbers are 7 and 17.
 
Someone is being awfully bossy and dictatorial. You long to prick their self-important bubble, but there may be reasons why you can't. Instead, you'll just have to grit your teeth and get on with it. Make sure that you don't behave in the same way, perhaps by being rather arrogant or assuming that you're the only one who knows that you're doing. Not a good strategy! Favourable colours are russet and violet. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
Once again you have to cope with a frosty atmosphere between you and loved ones. Love and money are at the heart of the problem. Maybe someone is feeling jealous or they're annoyed about all the expenses that have been incurred lately. You must sort things out otherwise everyone concerned will continue to seethe in silence. Advantageous colours are mulberry and cream. Lucky numbers are 29 and 21.
 
Any form of teamwork will go well today, because you're in exactly the right frame of mind for it. You'll enjoy the sense of camaraderie that comes from working in conjunction with other people, especially if you have shared ideals. A conversation with someone from a different background or culture to yours will be fascinating and informative. Beneficial colours are burnt orange and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 36.
 
Get together with friends today, Scorp. You're in the mood for it and it will do you good to let your hair down, even if you're only meeting for a quick drink. You can be guaranteed lots of laughs. If you haven't heard from a friend for quite a while, try to get in touch now so you can catch up on all the news. Vibrant colours are red and black. Lucky numbers are 8 and 12.
 
You're feeling rather agitated and anxious, quite snappy and short-tempered today. Things are getting on top of you and you're worried about how you're going to do everything in time for the festivities, or perhaps you're being driven to distraction by interruptions. You may also be worrying about a piece of gossip that's upset you. Positive colours are golden honey and smoky blue. Lucky numbers are 34 and 50.
 
A loved one isn't very happy. In fact, they're very disgruntled and they're giving a very good impression of someone who's sulking, even if they deny that they're doing any such thing. Oh, really? Try to coax them into telling you what's wrong because at least you then know what you're up against and you might even be able to do something about it. Positive colours are smoky quartz and lavender. Lucky numbers are 32 and 78.
 
Christmas is only a few days away now, so it's time to make sure you've remembered all the things you have to do before the big day. If you're at work, you must check that you've taken care of all essentials and you haven't overlooked any important details. But don't get bogged down in things that don't really matter as a way of avoiding more difficult and urgent problems. Favourable colours are lapis lazuli and marigold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
You're eager to get around today and to see some new sights. Maybe you'd like to visit somewhere you've never been to before, if you have the time. You don't have to venture very far to do it, either, because you could always try out a new cafe or shop. If you're about to take off on holiday, you'll have a great time and will love being adventurous while you're away. Auspicious colours are amethyst and basalt. Lucky numbers are 17 and 12.
 
Try to find the time to visit the shops today so you can buy any last-minute items that you need for the next few days. You're in a practical frame of mind, which is great for remembering that you need to buy a few household goods as well as those final Christmas presents. If you feel daunted by everything you still have to do, try to persuade someone to come along and give you a hand. Ideal colours are emerald and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 30 and 33.
 
Still got some last-minute Christmas shopping to do? Then you'll enjoy battling your way through the shops, and you'll also have fun wielding your cash or credit card in all directions. But try not to get too carried away, Leo, especially if this has already been an expensive month. Yes, it's Christmas but that doesn't mean you should bankrupt yourself in order to have a good time. Favourable colours are pale gold and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 33 and 22.
 
You're feeling good, and you want everyone to know it. What's more, you want everyone around you to feel equally cheerful, and you'll do your best to get them laughing and joking. This is very good news if you're taking part in a group gathering, such as getting together with friends or going to a party, because you'll have fun chatting to all and sundry. Uplifting colours are pale gold and purple. Lucky numbers are 36 and 1.
 
Are the pre-Christmas preparations starting to get to you? You're rather edgy and bad-tempered today and ready to have a row at a moment's notice. Try not to get caught up in silly little squabbles. Not only will these make you feel even more irritable, they'll also distract you from the things that you really should be doing, such as continuing with your Christmas preparations. Soothing colours are peach and aqua. Lucky numbers are 12 and 30.
 
Doing some shopping today? You'll be attracted to items that are stylish, classic and probably quite expensive. Be careful if you're finishing off your Christmas shopping because it will be awfully easy to get carried away and to buy things that you don't really need or can't afford. If you have some bills that need to be paid, deal with them right now before you forget about them. Ideal colours are plum and peach. Lucky numbers are 38 and 20.
 
Put on your party clothes because you're really keen to have a good time. In fact, you'll dazzle everyone you meet because you're feeling so sociable, friendly and benevolent. It's great for breaking the ice with someone you don't know very well, although you'll have just as much fun being with some of your favourite people. Dynamic colours are peacock blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 76.
 
Once again, you're keen to sort out problems and today you have even more purpose than you showed yesterday. It's the solstice, a a great day to say it with precision and clarity, so no one is left in any doubt that you mean business. There's no need to throw your weight around either, because you're blessed with natural authority at the moment. Make the most of it! Advantageous colours are lemon and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 27.
 
You've been focused on your goals and objectives for the past four weeks but that starts to change from today, and during the coming month you'll be much more interested in being with friends and in pursuing your hopes and dreams for the future. This means it's time to become more sociable if you've spent too many hours at work recently, and also to think about what you'd like to achieve in 2006 and beyond. Ideal colours are strawberry and platinum. Lucky numbers are 12 and 15.
 
Your brain is working well today, particularly when it comes to thinking things through. You're being practical and methodical, which makes it easy to tackle problems efficiently and to sort them out with the least amount of fuss.

Favourable colours are mother of pearl and spring green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 34.
 
From today you start to feel a lot more confident and energetic than you've done for some time. And this wonderful, bouncy feeling will last for the next four weeks, which is good news. Why not look on this as your opportunity to get ready to greet 2006, especially if that means writing out your New Year resolutions or making other big preparations for the next twelve months. Favourable colours are amber and pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
 
Make the most of your fabulous Sagittarian brainpower today, Archers. No matter what you're doing now, you'll learn a lot. If you've been thinking about enrolling in a course or class next year, you'll be even more determined to do it. You might even send off your application form because you feel so inspired! Ambitious colours are burgundy and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
During the past few weeks you've enjoyed getting out and about as much as possible but you're now starting to wish you could stay much closer to home.

You're also in a very family-minded mood and will love being with your nearest and dearest during the next four weeks. Favourable colours are mandarin and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 3 and 37.
 
The accent starts to switch from your domestic life to your social life from today, and during the next few weeks you'll have a really good time enjoying yourself.

Your thoughts are running along very practical and methodical lines today, so it's another excellent opportunity to make sure you're fully prepared for the coming festivities. Rather than rely on trying to remember what you have to do, which is always a bit dicey at this time of year, it will be far better to write everything down and keep it in a safe place. If you can spare the time you'll enjoy curling up with a thought-provoking book. Fortunate colours are spring green and coffee. Lucky numbers are 40 and 17.
 
The emphasis starts to shift to your relationships from today, just in time for the festivities. But this phase will last for longer than the next few days. In fact, it will continue until this time next month, giving you plenty of chance to improve the atmosphere between you and some of the people in your life. If things have been dicey recently, start putting matters to rights as soon as possible. After all, this is the season of goodwill. Prosperous colours are chocolate and russet. Lucky numbers are 1 and 53.
 
Have you finished writing all your Christmas cards? And have you bought all your Christmas presents?

Lucky numbers are 39 and 27.
 
You're filled with a sense of adventure and optimism from today, and this happy state of affairs will continue until late January.

Lucky numbers are 12 and 55.

Lucky numbers are 19 and 37.
 
This is a brilliant day for fixing problems and doing some trouble-shooting. Have a look around your home in case an appliance or gadget is about to let you down, probably just when you need it most.

And if you have time, you'll enjoy doing some cooking and perhaps putting it all in the freezer until it's needed. Fortunate colours are satin white and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 4 and 19.
 
How are your Christmas preparations coming along? This is the perfect day to take stock and work out what you've achieved and what is still to be done. While you're about it, check that you have adequate supplies of things you'll be relying upon over the holidays, whether it's alcohol, food or lightbulbs, and also make sure that vital appliances are working properly.

Take a look around your home and see whether you need to make a few changes today.

With Christmas only a matter of days away, today is a great opportunity for you to take stock of how far you are along with your preparations.

Prosperous colours are navy and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 4.
 
This is a day for fixing things that have gone wrong recently, whatever they happen to be.

How are your Christmas preparations progressing? Don't panic if you haven't got very far because this is the ideal day for getting yourself organized.

Lucky numbers are 6 and 23.
 
This is a great day for sorting out any problems that are currently bugging you. You'll find it easier to tackle them than you might have expected, too.

While you're at it, pay any bills that will be due within the next two weeks so you don't have to think about them again. Empowering colours are rose and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 11 and 44.
 
It's a wonderful day for spending time with children. You'll get a great deal of satisfaction from playing with them or chatting to them, whether they're your own kids or someone else's.

As the festivities get ever closer, you're starting to feel slightly panic-stricken.

Ideal colours are pastel green and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 38 and 16.
 
If you're planning a forthcoming holiday or long journey, check that all the arrangements are running smoothly. And that's especially important if you'll be jetting off in time for Christmas.

Steady colours are mauve and russet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
A conversation goes very well today, and you'll feel much better for it. Getting certain things off your chest will be much easier than you'd feared.

Ideal colours are ruby red and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 50.
 
Aquarians need to do some serious thinking, particularly where long-term goals and values are concerned.

There could also be surprise news about a friend, or something that means a lot to you. Inspiring colours are ebony and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 16 and 33.
 
Your thoughts are all over the place today, making it hard to concentrate on anything for long. It doesn't help that you're feeling restless and not very keen on following other people's orders.

Fortunate colours are sable and silver. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
 
Your brain is working really fast today, churning out lots of ideas and thoughts. In fact, it will be difficult for you to keep pace with your thought processes, making you seem slightly distracted or absent-minded.

Favourable colours are champagne and fudge. Lucky numbers are 23 and 49.
 
Your thoughts are very disjointed and erratic, making it difficult to keep track of them for long.

You should certainly jot down anything important, to avoid possible mistakes or slip-ups later on. Auspicious colours are cream and saffron. Lucky numbers are 11 and 29.
 
Someone has some surprising things to say today. Maybe they're being deliberately provocative or they truly don't realize the impact their words are having on you. But are they really being shocking or are you being a bit of a prude or a stick-in-the-mud? When making arrangements today, try to allow for delays and hiccups because things won't always go according to plan. Expressive colours are ochre and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 15 and 48.
 
Someone seems to be taking a great delight in being difficult. You say one thing and they say something completely different simply to irritate you. They might also come up with some ideas that sound wacky or crazy to you, or which touch a nerve and make you angry. Try not to let this person get to you to such an extent. They may be deliberately trying to provoke an angry response from you. Ideal colours are violet and plum. Lucky numbers are 15 and 20.
 
Someone is in the mood to spend money today, especially on the spur of the moment without really thinking it through. You won't be amused because this means they might easily fork out for things they don't need or of which you don't approve. But the more you tell them not to waste their money the more likely they are to do precisely that, so you might as well save your breath, Scorpio. Fortunate colours are mauve and fire opal. Lucky numbers are 13 and 10.
 
Someone is being very contrary today. They may say one thing and do another, or completely contradict themselves all day long. And the more trapped or restricted they feel, the more eccentric and unpredictable they'll be. If you're wise you'll take everything they say with a pinch of salt, to avoid getting caught up in irritating arguments and puzzling U-turns. They'll soon sort themselves out and get back to normal. Emotional colours are violet and apple blossom. Lucky numbers are 26 and 26.
 
You feel overwhelmed with information today, making it difficult to concentrate on anything for long. It will be especially tricky if you're supposed to be getting through lots of work before the start of the Christmas holidays because your brain will refuse to play ball. You may also have to cope with someone who keeps changing their mind about what they want. Beneficial colours are emerald and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.
 
You're in a very inventive frame of mind today, which will stimulate some clever ideas. Not everyone may agree, however, so be prepared to hear some criticisms. It would be best to jot down your ideas and then return to them in a few days' time when you'll find it easier to assess them. By then you'll have a better idea of whether they're clever, or crazy. Inventive colours are apple green and white. Lucky numbers are 11 and 7.
 
Your mind is jumping around all over the place today, making it very difficult for you to keep track of your thoughts. You're full of ideas, but you aren't sure whether they're strokes of genius or more like gibberish. Jot them down as they come to you so you can evaluate them at a later date. Right now, you aren't in a fit state to think straight. Which isn't like you at all! Passionate colours are obsidian and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 6 and 12.
 
It will be quite a day if you're easily shocked, because a certain person will say or do things that are enough to make your hair curl. Have you considered that they may be trying to get a rise out of you or wind you up? You'll certainly find that the more you react, the more you'll encourage them to commit further outrages. Call their bluff and remain impassive! Inspirational colours are mulberry and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 44.
 
A friend needs plenty of your attention today. You'll be glad to give it at first, although the pleasure may wear a bit thin after a while. Even so, this is a great day for mixing with pals and doing something sociable. If taking part in a group activity, you'll enjoy introducing yourself to newcomers and putting them at their ease. Harmonious colours are navy and white. Lucky numbers are 3 and 24.
 
You long to indulge yourself today and to take life easy, even if you're supposed to be working hard. You may also be feeling very lazy, making it difficult for you to stir yourself to do anything energetic because your heart simply isn't in it. Be careful if you're meant to be on a strict eating or exercise regime because it will be very hard to make yourself stick to it. Your willpower isn't very strong at the moment, Pisces. Fortunate colours are plum and kiwi fruit. Lucky numbers are 24 and 8.
 
It's a lovely day for being sociable, especially if you're mixing with people you know well. For instance, you'll enjoy having a drink with the neighbours or sharing a meal with close family. However, you'll have to be tactful when a certain person starts to exaggerate or becomes very emotional. You may have to create a diversion or smooth things over. Fortunate colours are sage green and ginger. Lucky numbers are 21 and 74.
 
This is a great day for getting on well with the people in your life. You're interested in what they have to say and you'll find them amusing and entertaining. You could get drawn into a discussion at some point, in which case you won't know whether to say what you really think, or tone down your ideas to avoid upsetting someone. Beneficial colours are platinum and yellow ochre. Lucky numbers are 10 and 4.
 
If you've been spending lots of money so far this month you should be very careful today because you'll be tempted to get rid of even more of it! If you're Christmas shopping you'll have the urge to splurge, and you'll also be tempted to splash out on lots of little luxuries for yourself. Concentrate on people and activities that make your world go round but keep an eye on how much they cost. Beneficial colours are peach and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 28 and 23.
 
It's one of those rare days when you long to spend some money, and you won't be happy until you have. Actually, it would be far better to splash out a small amount of cash and be satisfied with that, than to hold off all day until you finally can't resist temptation any more and completely go for broke. If you were having sensitive discussions with a loved one yesterday, they'll continue today. Mellow colours are cream and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 8.
 
A relationship is quite intense and demanding today, so be prepared. There's an emotional connection between the two of you and you need to sort out some current difficulties now. If you're separated from someone you love at the moment, you'll long to be with them and will feel rather emotional as a result. Prosperous colours are oyster and jade. Lucky numbers are 15 and 16.
 
Someone is quite a handful today. It's not that they're playing up so much, as being rather demanding and emotional. They'll make you feel guilty if you have to spend time away from them because they seem to expect you to be by their side all day long. Or are you the one who's suddenly clingy and needy? If so, try not to smother someone with your emotional demands. Inspiring colours are magenta and silver. Lucky numbers are 2 and 74.
 
You're in the mood to have a good time today. You certainly don't want to do anything that's very strenuous or complicated, and if you're faced with anything that comes into that category you'll do your best to wriggle out of it. Ideally, you should be in a social setting where you can charm everyone you meet. Fabulous colours are russet and violet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 51.
 
A certain someone needs a lot of input from you today, Scorpio. This person needs to know he or she has your emotional support, otherwise you can expect quite a bit of a fuss or something else designed to get your attention. You should also spare a thought for an older friend or relative who could do with some tender loving care right now. Favourable colours are purple and brown. Lucky numbers are 3 and 7.
 
You long to make emotional contact with others today and you'll feel cheated if this doesn't happen. If you're going to a family gathering you'll do your utmost to make sure that everyone has a wonderful time and that it's an occasion to remember. However, if you're on your own you'll become quite needy, and may also feel rather sorry for yourself. Expressive colours are peach and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 40 and 61.
 
It's a great day for getting on well with other people because you're keen to bring them out of themselves and enjoy their company. But don't be surprised if they want to spend more time with you than you expected, or if you get the impression that they're feeling lonely at the moment. You're in the mood to indulge yourself, especially where food and drink are concerned, even if that means abandoning your diet or healthy eating regime for a short while. Favourable colours are smoky quartz and crimson. Lucky numbers are 38 and 66.
 
It's a strange day because you're torn between optimism and pessimism. You feel that you're caught between people who are pulling you in these two differing directions, and that you're stuck in the middle and unsure of what to do for the best. Perhaps you can't do anything right now except wait until you're in a better position to reach a decision or declare where you stand. Ideal colours are mauve and sienna. Lucky numbers are 36 and 45.
 
You're caught between feeling optimistic about something and feeling rather despondent, especially if it concerns your family or home life. Maybe you want to push ahead with a domestic plan while at the same time being worried that you can't afford it, or you're in two minds over what to do about a relative. Wait a few days and see if things get any clearer. Beneficial colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 27 and 3.
 
You're torn between generosity and prudence today, Aries. It's very difficult to know what to do for the best. You're itching to invest some money in something, but is a loved one is telling you not to do it? You could be filled with desire for someone who apparently isn't very interested in you. It's a day of extremes, so don't be caught in the middle of them. Beneficial colours are hazel and blue. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
 
Is your glass half-full or half-empty? You aren't sure right now, because you're caught between feeling positive and miserable. It may be that you're hoping to make progress in one area of your life, such as your job, but you feel held back by other commitments, such as your family. How can you solve this problem? Try to stay objective and to see all sides of the argument. Insightful colours are green and emerald. Lucky numbers are 14 and 62.
 
You're torn between making changes and sticking to the status quo. You aren't sure what to do for the best, and it won't help if a friend buts in by giving you some advice. Should you listen to them or should you ignore everything they're telling you? There will also be a tussle between spending and saving money. Ideal colours are spring green and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 21 and 33.
 
There's a lot for you to learn today, Archers, both through personal experience and through formal education. Prepare for problems reconciling something you're taught with something that you know instinctively, or you might have to choose between putting yourself in the public eye and respecting your privacy. It may not be an easy day, but it will certainly be very educational. Beneficial colours are charcoal and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
It's a strange day because you're caught between optimism and pessimism. Maybe you'd like to do something that you'd enjoy but you feel you can't because of how much it will cost, or there are big obstacles to overcome in a special relationship. Do your best to remain positive and not get sucked down into a gloomy attitude that stops you even trying to achieve what you're setting out to do. Inspirational colours are red satin and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 16 and 51.
 
This is a great day for making some changes to your life, particularly if you want to break out of a current rut and move in another direction. However, before that happens you may have to make a decision between your career or reputation and a relationship. Don't become despondent if things don't fall into place immediately. Keep the faith that everything will eventually work out. Auspicious colours are mustard yellow and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 8 and 78.
 
This is a strange day because you feel caught between the need to make progress and move forward, and the need to hold back and be cautious. Which option should you go for, or should you avoid going to either extreme at the moment and try to find some sort of middle ground? Even so, you might be offered a fabulous chance to push ahead in your career or to get involved in something that will boost your public reputation. Beneficial colours are grey and olive. Lucky numbers are 14 and 5.
 
You aren't sure which direction you're heading in today. It's difficult to tell whether you're making progress as you're getting contradictory messages. You may also have to balance a need to look on the bright side with a nagging feeling that all is not well. Your best bet is to avoid going to extremes today and to wait and see what happens. Favourable colours are ivory and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 28 and 77.
 
There's a clash between being outgoing and private today, and it's difficult to find a happy medium. You may also realize that you have to put a lot of distance between yourself and someone who isn't very good for you to be around. Alternatively, you may have to try to persuade a loved one to change the company they keep. And it won't be easy. Fortunate colours are purple and cocoa. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
You feel as though you're being caught between two extremes. On the one hand you want to expand your life in many exciting ways, especially if they involve going on some form of adventure or spiritual quest, and on the other hand you feel trapped by circumstances and duties, with no option but to stick with the status quo. Think carefully so you can find your way through this dilemma. Insightful colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 58.
 
It's the ideal day to embark on a quest for information and truth. You may have a specific question you want answered, or you want to explore ideas on a broader level. If you're involved in a legal matter at the moment, what happens now will have a dramatic impact on the eventual outcome. There could also be some important news about a travel plan. Beneficial colours are platinum and navy. Lucky numbers are 20 and 50.
 
Be careful if you're working with someone today, because they might be very exacting and difficult. This person is a perfectionist and nothing you do is right, or they want to throw their weight around and let you know who's boss. Be careful if you start to treat people in this way yourself because it won't make you popular and it might even arouse some opposition that you'll have to deal with in the future. Insightful colours are aquamarine and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 4 and 66.
 
Once you've made up your mind about something today it will be almost impossible for you to alter it. In fact, you'll be very dogmatic and single-minded about the whole thing, even to the point of being quite entrenched in your opinions. But try not to become so blinkered that you refuse to listen to anyone else's viewpoint. Uplifting colours are slate and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 22 and 34.
 
Everything has a greater impact on you than normal today, making you likely to over-react or take things very much to heart. Do your best to keep a sense of proportion throughout all this, so you don't get yourself into a state about things that you'd normally take in your stride. Anything connected with your money and values is particularly likely to get under your skin at the moment. Mellow colours are ultramarine and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 32.
 
You have a strong sense of your own power and what you're able to achieve today. In fact, you feel very sure of yourself, which is great provided that you don't use this strength to throw your weight around or dominate others. Be very careful about getting involved in power games because they won't work out in the way you were hoping. Steady colours are blueberry and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 22 and 5.
 
You have to be strict with yourself, Gemini. You have a pretty good idea of where a certain person is going wrong, and you're itching to tell them, but be careful. As far as you're concerned, you have all the answers and they'd be a fool not to listen to you. Hold on! You'll make yourself very unpopular if you blurt it out or, even worse, give this person orders about what to do and not to do. Wait to be asked for your opinion, and then take it gently. Uplifting colours are terracotta and jade. Lucky numbers are 12 and 70.
 
Someone has a very powerful impact on you now. This might be rather enjoyable, as they knock you for six so you can't think about anyone or anything else -- or it could be quite intimidating because they're so bossy and domineering. Make sure you don't behave in the same way, especially if you do so for reasons that you're reluctant to examine. Dynamic colours are sparkling orange and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 37 and 74.
 
You're in a very determined mood today. Determined to make some progress in your long-term plans, even if that means working round the clock to achieve what you set out to do. This is also a day for looking at your inner self and deciding whether you need to change in any way. Facets of your personality that might be hidden from you at other times could become revealed to you now, with fascinating consequences. Fortunate colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 32.
 
Get ready for some intense and profound experiences that will make you think twice today. For instance, you might have an extremely thought-provoking conversation with a close partner, in which you gain a greater understanding of one another or your relationship becomes even more intimate than it was before. If a partnership has hit the skids, this could be when you decide that it has to change in some way. Favourable colours are crimson and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 16 and 47.
 
Take care because someone is being very domineering and controlling today. They want you to know that they're the boss and that they call the shots. You may not be very impressed with this, especially if you think you're the one who should be in charge. But you must handle them carefully. This is an important day for you because it could herald a big achievement or turning point in one of your goals. Fortunate colours are marmalade and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 10 and 54.
 
A memory is peculiarly persistent today, refusing to leave you alone. As a result it will be difficult to concentrate on much else. It's the same story if you had a powerful dream last night because it will stay with you all day long. A member of the family seems to think that they know what's best for you, even if you beg to disagree. Not that they'll let you say so at the moment because they're being so bossy! Propitious colours are russet and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 3 and 69.
 
Is it your imagination, or is a loved one being forceful and controlling today? They're throwing their weight around and insisting that you do what they tell you, or they're being highly emotional and rather draining to be around. Make sure that you don't behave in this way yourself because it won't make you very popular. In fact, it will turn out to be self-defeating, because you put off the very people you were hoping to get on your side. Ideal colours are silvery grey and violet. Lucky numbers are 2 and 45.
 
There's a Full Moon today, and it will be affecting your career and long-term plans during the coming fortnight. This is your cue to start thinking about what you've achieved so far this year and what you want to achieve in 2006. Are you on course for success or do you need to change tack? Don't be afraid to cut your losses if you think you aren't getting anywhere, but don't give up altogether. Make a new plan and stick to it! Inspirational colours are pale yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 13.
 
The Full Moon is telling you to come to terms with something that's been nagging away at you recently. It's something that you know you have to do. It's something that you know you have to do but which you've been putting off, or a worry that's eating away at you. Whatever it is, the coming fortnight is the right time to deal with it. You may be able to solve it or you might simply have to live with it, but you must face it. Auspicious colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 13 and 17.
 
Money starts to burn a hole in your pocket today and it will continue to sizzle away until the beginning of 2006. That's great if you have the cash to spare, but have you? If not, you'll have to work out a budget and restrict yourself accordingly. Be careful when you're Christmas shopping, too, because that will be another way for you to spend, spend, spend. Peaceful colours are cinnamon and purple. Lucky numbers are 11 and 38.
 
The next few weeks are ideal for keeping on the right side of people who are more powerful or influential than you. This doesn't mean you have to be ingratiating towards them, because that would be a bit of a giveaway, but it won't hurt to chat and be pleasant to them. So if you're going to the Christmas party at work, make an effort to talk to your boss or supervisor. Ideal colours are plum and apple blossom. Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.
 
Your popularity is about to rise in leaps and bounds. During the next few weeks you'll be everyone's favourite person, so don't be surprised if you're in great demand. And you might attract some new fans, too, including a possible love interest who will certainly put a sparkle in your eye. It's just right for making the most of the party season. Have fun! Propitious colours are blackberry and plum. Lucky numbers are 22 and 54.
 
The astrological emphasis is on your relationships and Venus, the planet of love. This is very good news because it means that you'll be even more charming and attractive than usual during the next few weeks. You'll also do your best to find a compromise with partners whenever possible, although this may sometimes make you eager to pacify them and accede to their wishes even if that works to your disadvantage. Romantic colours are dark pink and white. Lucky numbers are 36 and 21.
 
From today your emotional needs become more intense and they'll stay that way for the next few weeks. During this time you'll enjoy being with people you know very well, such as close family and friends who feel like your family. You won't be nearly so interested in meeting new people, perhaps because it will feel like too much effort. It's a case of familiarity breeding content at the moment. Ambitious colours are cobalt blue and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 24 and 31.
 
This is the start of a month in which you'll enjoy pampering yourself and being self-indulgent. You'll also love the thought of enhancing your image in some way, particularly if you want to be a big hit at all the parties over the next two weeks. Love might also enter your life now, especially if you're currently single, so get ready to greet it. Fortunate colours are apricot and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 38.
 
Today's Full Moon is telling you to pay attention to the state of your home and family life at the moment. Maybe there's something you've been neglecting recently, such as a member of the family or some repairs that are needed to your home. You may also have to make amends if you've been spending too much time on your work or goals recently at the expense of your domestic circumstances. It's time to redress the balance. Fortunate colours are chocolate and aqua. Lucky numbers are 9 and 12.
 
Today's Full Moon is telling you to take care of your relationships during the next two weeks. This might mean sorting out the recent difficulties with a certain person so you both get a better idea of what's going on between you. And it may also mean accepting that one relationship has to change if it's going to survive. Beneficial colours are aquamarine and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 24 and 20.
 
Friends will brighten up your life in many different ways between now and the end of the month. This is just what you need if you're looking forward to lots of parties and other festive gatherings. If you're currently a solo Aries who's on the hunt for a new love, you could soon meet someone wonderful through a social event. It sounds like the perfect excuse to buy some new clothes! Favourable colours are pale gold and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 18 and 77.
 
Your personal life is highlighted by today's Full Moon, encouraging you to spend the coming fortnight making a few changes to your world. You might want to get rid of all that clutter you've accumulated over the year, or you may feel you have to take yourself in hand and be more organized in future. Maybe you could combine this with some New Year resolutions, so you can carry your good intentions into 2006. Fortunate colours are brass and magenta. Lucky numbers are 27 and 36.
 
Be careful if you're going shopping today because you'll be very tempted to do some impulse buying. That will be especially likely if you're feeling a bit bored or restless, or if someone has rattled you. But beware the lure of the shops unless you can stick to a budget, otherwise you're likely to go overboard. If you're looking for Christmas presents you'll spot some wacky gifts that look like fun but which might not go down very well with their recipients. Beneficial colours are dark purple and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 8 and 50.
 
It's an awkward, difficult day in which you feel at odds with other people. You don't want to do what's expected of you, especially if it seems restrictive and boring. Instead, you want to do things on the spur of the moment, regardless of the consequences or what other people think. But be careful because some of your actions could turn out to have rather embarrassing ramifications. Loving colours are copper and pastel green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 42.
 
It's difficult to concentrate on anything today, because your mind keeps leapfrogging from one topic to the next. You have to contend with some irritating interruptions and disruptions that are beyond your control, such as phones ringing or vital pieces of equipment going on the blink at the wrong moment. Keep calm! Comforting colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 24 and 19.
 
It's a day for being businesslike and getting on with your chores and duties. This doesn't mean feeling like Cinderella before she was allowed to go to the ball because actually you'll rather enjoy being businesslike and practical. You'll also enjoy crossing items off your list of things to do. If you need to get to grips with a financial or health matter, do it now. Fortunate colours are ochre and silver. Lucky numbers are 20 and 18.
 
How are your Christmas preparations coming along? If the very thought of them makes you shudder, you need to make the most of today's practical influences and get started. Draw up some lists and then hit the shops. If you get yourself organized in advance you won't waste valuable time going backwards and forwards between shops. Map out your plan of action! Fortunate colours are chocolate and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 19 and 38.
 
You're in a sensible and practical frame of mind today, which is especially useful if you're doing something that involves a strong sense of responsibility or a careful head for figures. For instance, it's great for sorting out an official financial matter, such as paying a bill, applying for a loan or getting in touch with the taxman. Auspicious colours are white and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 66 and 29.
 
It's time to sort out your finances, especially if you're worrying about how you're going to afford to buy everything that's needed for the forthcoming festivities. If you're going shopping you'll get great satisfaction from tracking down bargains; you certainly aren't keen on the idea of wasting your money or time right now. Beneficial colours are sky blue and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 17 and 19.
 
You're feeling restless and unsettled today. You're fed up with your usual routine and you're longing to do something different for a change. Well, why can't you? It's important for you to let off steam before you reach screaming point, because once that happens there's no knowing what you'll do in the interests of keeping yourself amused. Fortunate colours are lavender and navy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 37.
 
You're in a contrary mood today, making it difficult for others to know how to approach you. You're torn between wanting to be left alone and wanting to be with other people, and it will be hard to get the balance right. Try to keep away from anyone who is very conservative or hidebound because they'll soon start to irritate you. Beneficial colours are vermilion and saffron. Lucky numbers are 25 and 16.
 
This is a brilliant day for putting your brain to work. You'll enjoy the intellectual stimulus of talking to someone who makes you think or getting involved in a mind-bending discussion. It will also be very instructive to talk to someone who comes from a completely different background to yours, so you can find out what makes them tick. Harmonious colours are lemon and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 6 and 42.
 
It feels as though your life is all over the place today. It's hard to concentrate and you must also cope with interruptions and changes of plan that put you off your stroke. Do your best to go with the flow, because the more rigidly you try to stick to your schedule the more disruptive the day will feel. The good news is that you might even start to enjoy yourself in the end! Ideal colours are cobalt blue and tan. Lucky numbers are 9 and 57.
 
A friend is very supportive and helpful today, much to your delight. They help you out when you need a hand, or simply give you some much-needed moral support. Make sure you return the favour whenever it's appropriate. If you have the time you'll enjoy being busy with a favourite hobby or pastime too, and it will help you to relax. Sensitive colours are almond and lilac. Lucky numbers are 4 and 26.
 
Although you've just embarked on a phase in which it's good to talk, you'll discover that it's a different story today. A conversation quickly escalates into a row, with both of you taking opposite viewpoints and refusing to meet halfway. Yet this will be a good opportunity to clear the air and have your say, so it isn't by any means all bad. Energising colours are bright red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 16 and 28.
 
You have a lot on your mind today and it's starting to get to you. Maybe you're becoming bogged down in facts and figures, so you can't see the wood for the trees. Or perhaps you're getting a lot of hassle from someone who's keen to tell you what to do, even though you don't want to hear what they have to say. Try not to get yourself worked up into a state because it will be difficult to shake it off. Favourable colours are strawberry and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 27 and 27.
 
It's delightfully easy to get on well with colleagues and customers today, thanks to your cheerful attitude and sunny disposition. You want everyone to hit it off with everyone else, and you're doing your best to make sure that happens. Even if you're with someone you don't really like very much, you'll try hard to overcome your feelings about them and to make the best of the situation. If you're going to a job interview, you'll charm everyone you meet. Dreamy colours are pineapple and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 28 and 39.
 
You'll be happiest today if you can spend time with loved ones. It will be good to be with people that you know inside out, and with whom you feel comfortable. This is also a lovely day for curling up at home, with nothing to do except to relax, eat something delicious and have a good time. If you're doing some entertaining you'll prefer it if you can keep it fairly low-key rather than pulling out all the stops. Uplifting colours are ebony and mango. Lucky numbers are 21 and 60.
 
If possible, you should give yourself a complete change of scene today because this will give you renewed energy and zest. You could feel overcome with lethargy if you have to follow your usual routine, because it will have little excitement to offer you. You're looking for some sort of escape from reality, but try not to choose anything too extreme. Beneficial colours are silver and maroon. Lucky numbers are 30 and 42.
 
Someone is being extremely pedantic and nit-picking. They'll zero in on the slightest mistake and then point it out to you with great glee. It will be enough to drive you crazy, but is it worth the aggro? Try not to fall into the same trap yourself, although it will be very tempting to give as good as you get.

There's some sort of contest going on today between your ideas and those of other people. Perhaps you get caught up in a battle of words, in which you and someone else vie over who has the last word.

Have money, will spend. That's the feeling you have today, whether you're let loose near the shops or you're browsing the web.

This is a lovely day for being with people that you care about, though you're more likely to be drawn to close friends than to members of the family.

If you're doing some Christmas shopping you may be drawn to items with a mystical or spiritual slant. Favourable colours are pistachio and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
Does someone need looking after? Maybe they aren't feeling very well or they've been having a rough time of it lately and they could do with some tea and sympathy.

You're full of compassion and empathy today, Leo and it shows. Other people will soon realize that you have their best interests at heart and you're doing your utmost to take care of them.

Propitious colours are blueberry and topaz. Lucky numbers are 22 and 45.
 
This is a good day for getting on with chores and other necessary tasks. You'll feel pleased with the progress you make and pretty proud of yourself, too.

It's the best day all week for sorting out such things. Positive colours are turquoise and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 18.
 
You'll enjoy getting out and about today, rather than being cooped up in one place all day long. It's great if you can get some exercise at the same time, such as going for a long walk or fitting in a brief trip to the gym, provided you didn't do yourself a mischief yesterday. If you're going shopping, take someone along to keep you company. Beneficial colours are mushroom and red. Lucky numbers are 5 and 13.
 
It's one of those days when you take a certain satisfaction from getting on with mundane chores and routine duties. It will give you a strong sense of everything being right with the world when you've been able to tick off the items on your list of things to do. Besides, as a Virgo you need to know that your life is running smoothly and in an orderly fashion, and today you're left in no doubt about that. Sensitive colours are hyacinth and treacle. Lucky numbers are 16 and 3.
 
You're at your most diplomatic and urbane today, which is great news if you're hoping to get on the right side of a certain person.

Lucky numbers are 18 and 57.
 
Pick up the phone or send an email to loved ones who live far away. It's a brilliant day for keeping in touch, especially if you haven't had much contact with certain people lately.

Propitious colours are emerald and ivory. Lucky numbers are 6 and 50.
 
You're feeling industrious and organized, so get cracking on tasks and jobs that need your careful attention.

Delightful colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 11 and 22.

Friends help to take you out of yourself today, Aquarius. Enjoy spending time with them because they remind you that there's more than one way to look at life.

You might even be invited to take on a leadership role, particularly if you weren't expecting it. Beneficial colours are pale gold and salmon. Lucky numbers are 22 and 30.
 
No matter what you're doing today, it should be something that has meaning for you. Don't do things that seem frivolous or a waste of time, even if other people think they're great.

Beneficial colours are coffee and ginger. Lucky numbers are 11 and 2.
 
You need to pace yourself today, especially if you're doing something physical or energetic. If you don't pace yourself, you'll end up feeling like a wet lettuce, because you won't have any energy.

Auspicious colours are chestnut and toffee. Lucky numbers are 6 and 11.
 
You're full of beans today! It's great for getting things done. But will you know when to stop? You're having such a burst of enthusiasm that you're reluctant to slow down.

Lively colours are persimmon and bronze. Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
 
Do your best not to take on more than you can comfortably manage today, whether that means not overdoing it at work or pacing yourself while you're at home.

Better to know your limits, Aquarius, than to bite off more than you can chew. Opportunistic colours are aqua and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 22 and 32.
 
You're raring to go Capricorn, especially if you can do something energetic and adventurous. Don't follow the usual Monday routine if you can possibly avoid it.

And don't commit yourself to any activities that you know you won't be able to handle, either. Beneficial colours are scarlet and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 28 and 21.
 
Be careful today because your words could easily run away with you, leading to embarrassment when you say the wrong thing. You're also feeling very energetic right now, but once again you should try to hold back and not to go completely overboard in case you end up feeling exhausted.

Lucky numbers are 34 and 34.
 
It's easy to go overboard today, particularly where money is concerned. Bear that in mind if you're shopping because you won't know when to stop.

But can you afford to make these generous and benevolent gestures or should you be a bit more money- minded? Dazzling colours are platinum and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 17 and 23.
 
Virgo is full of beans today, so it's all energetic and bouncy. You'll hardly be able to sit still because you'd much rather keep moving.

Lucky numbers are 33 and 5.
 
You're raring to go now, but take care not to bite off more than you can chew.

Lucky numbers are 5 and 48.
 
Crabs are full of enthusiasm today, even though it's Monday. In fact, you get so carried away that you push yourself further than usual and end up feeling worn out.

You should also be careful about overspending if you're going shopping. Passionate colours are mango and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 40 and 56.
 
Easy does it! You're tempted to take on too much today, especially if it involves physical activity. For instance, you may decide that if an hour at the gym is good for you then two hours will be twice as good for you, even though your body may not be used to such rigours. As a result, you might end up feeling much worse than when you started, and what's the point of that? Ideal colours are aquamarine and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 59.
 
Someone has a powerful desire for freedom, and woe betide you if you appear to be holding them back in any way. You may have to bite your lip and let them do things that you dislike or don't approve of, rather than risk alienating them or making them rebel against you. However, it will be difficult not to say or do exactly what you want, and hang the consequences. Fortunate colours are crimson and indigo. Lucky numbers are 32 and 16.
 
Enthusiasm could get the better of you today Aries, urging you to overdo it, or to overcommit yourself in some way.

Lucky numbers are 31 and 56.
 
The conversation today is likely to turn towards money and related topics, such as pensions or insurance policies.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
This is a marvellous day for thinking of ways to make your home more cosy and inviting.

The coming fortnight is the ideal time to capitalize on everything you currently have going for you, whether connected with your health, your work, your relationships or your career, so it can be even better in 2006. Travel is also very enticing now. You could feel the call to go on an adventure, but will you answer it? Beneficial colours are silver and gold. Lucky numbers are 18 and 26.
 
You're in a very inquisitive frame of mind today. You'll love doing some research in order to gather more information about a subject that fascinates you, whether you do that by looking up books, talking to someone or surfing the net. If you're out and about today you'll enjoy chatting to people you meet along the way, and even more so if they come from very different backgrounds to yours. Fortunate colours are bright green and silver. Lucky numbers are 18 and 22.
 
You're in a very garrulous mood today, making it difficult for you to stop talking. You'll want to chat to whoever happens to be around, whether you've known them for ever or you've only just met. It's fine to natter away, but try not to hog the conversation to such an extent that no one else gets the chance to say anything. Propitious colours are amber and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 25 and 47.
 
You're in an affectionate and demonstrative mood today, and you'll be happiest when you're with some of the special people in your life. The better you know them, the more relaxed and secure you'll feel. The shops are calling you so you won't need any encouragement to see what they've got to offer. If you're doing some Christmas shopping you'll want to make some generous gestures, but check that you can afford them, Libra! Fortunate colours are fawn and magenta. Lucky numbers are 6 and 24.
 
This is a lovely day for being with people you care about. You'll enjoy looking after them in your own way, or simply chatting to them and finding out how they are. This is also an excellent opportunity to spend time with an older friend or relative, or with someone you work with, and to get to know them better. Expressive colours are mushroom and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 5 and 50.
 
A close partner or intimate friend is in a very garrulous mood, making them chat about whatever comes into their head. Some of this will be very interesting but there's also a possibility that they'll say something that slightly shocks you. They may mention a taboo subject, or describe emotions that you find distasteful. Should you take it all in your stride, or say something? Peaceful colours are pale pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 37 and 34.
 
The month ends on a peaceful and enjoyable note. You're in the mood to get together with friends, even if you don't do anything very exciting together. If there have been slight problems between you and a friend recently or you haven't seen as much of each other as you'd like, get in touch with them and try to smooth things over. You'll also enjoy getting involved in a favourite hobby, particularly if it has an artistic slant. Favourable colours are pastel green and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 40.
 
A certain someone barely draws breath today, which is great if you've got time to listen to them but not such good news if you're trying to do other things as well. Of course, you're feeling rather chatty right now, but try not to hog the conversation to such an extent that no one else can get a word in edgeways. This won't make you very popular. Beneficial colours are ivory and mango. Lucky numbers are 27 and 72.
 
Someone wants to talk to you in confidence, but are you ready to listen to what they've got to say? Maybe they want to tell you some of their secrets and you aren't sure if you'll be able to keep them to yourself, or perhaps this person never draws breath and you simply don't have the time to listen while they ramble on and on. You'll have to make some clever excuses but you should be able to come up with something. Beneficial colours are tangerine and emerald. Lucky numbers are 24 and 72.
 
Your thoughts and emotions are working in tandem, Gemini, making it easy to put your feelings into words. However, you should remember that it may not be convenient for others to listen to you, especially if they're trying to get on with their work. This is a good day to continue your Christmas preparations, especially if you fancy writing lists of the things you've still got to do. Favourable colours are hot pink and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 5 and 43.
 
Give yourself a treat and spend time with people you love today. You won't have to do anything special with them either, so even flopping on the sofa together while watching television or a DVD will be enjoyable. Of course, if you feel like going out on the town you'll have a great time, but be careful not to spend more money than you can really afford. Fortunate colours are aqua and walnut. Lucky numbers are 2 and 16.
 
Mind what you say today as you accidentally send out the wrong message, or give someone a confused, misleading opinion of you. It's also a difficult day for working through your thoughts because not even these are as straightforward as normal. Beware of kidding yourself about something because you've got the facts muddled up or you've overlooked an important aspect of the entire situation. Expressive colours are aubergine and olive. Lucky numbers are 19 and 76.
 
You're thinking along very subjective and emotional lines today, which makes it difficult for you to reach any decisions. You certainly can't manage to be dispassionate about anything right now, even if you think you can, because your emotions and thoughts are completely tangled up in each other. Wait for this mood to pass before making any emotional commitments. Positive colours are avocado and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 23 and 11.
 
You need to give a loved one plenty of latitude right now, otherwise they'll cut up rough. Do your best not to keep tabs on them too closely or to go into a huff if they haven't got time to see you. This is a day when you need to keep yourself amused, because once you start to get bored you'll feel extremely restless and agitated, and this could easily lead to a temperamental scene with someone. Energising colours are apricot and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 37 and 39.
 
You long to break free from what you consider to be ruts and restrictions today. Someone is trying to box you into a corner and they're determined you should live your life in the way they want rather than in whichever way suits you. You might even be tempted to create a major fuss in order to get your point across, but beware of using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Ideal colours are lavender and plum. Lucky numbers are 12 and 52.
 
You're feeling jangled and rebellious, and the more you're expected to toe the line or do the decent thing, the more you'll want to do the complete opposite. Be careful, because adopting such a controversial attitude will end up backfiring on you, especially if you manage to arouse the indignation or disapproval of the powers-that-be. On the other hand, if you want to create total chaos, all you need to do is let rip! Fortunate colours are peach and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 36 and 59.
 
You're facing restrictions, rules and regulations today, and you aren't happy about them. They feel as though they're closing in on you, robbing you of free will, or perhaps they're being imposed far too freely by a certain person. You're feeling rebellious, but don't stir up more trouble than you can cope with. Perhaps it would be more prudent to cope with all these restrictions while you have to and then to let off steam when it's safe to do so. Fortunate colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 27 and 71.
 
Life is full of interruptions today, making it difficult to stick at anything for long. Even the best plans go awry now, leaving you feeling frustrated and wondering what to do for the best. Try to go with the flow, because there isn't much else you can do when arrangements start to unravel and you have to improvise. Don't worry. Everything will work out OK in the end. Auspicious colours are charcoal and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 32 and 67.
 
Life is full of surprises today, and not all of them will be enjoyable. The more wedded you are to your routine and the more structured your day is, the more rattled you'll be when things don't go according to plan. If you're on your travels today you should allow plenty of time for your journey in case there are hold-ups on the road or cancellations if you're going by public transport. Positive colours are violet and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 75.
 
Get ready for a surprise about something or someone that means a lot to you. You see a loved one in a completely new light or you change your mind about something that's always been very important to you until now. If your relationship with a friend has got bogged down recently this is a good day to try to liven it up again. Beneficial colours are dark pink and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 40 and 24.
 
It's one of those days when you feel unsettled and restless. You're also dissatisfied with the way your life is at the moment and you're wondering how to change it. It looks as though one of the culprits is your daily routine. Has it got rather tedious and predictable lately? If so, you need to think of how to jazz it up so you can look forward to each day again. Positive colours are shimmering white and dark green. Lucky numbers are 30 and 74.
 
You aren't happy with the status quo today, as it seems boring and predictable. Instead, you're interested in introducing a few changes and doing things differently from normal. So what do you have in mind? Ideally, you should do something before you feel the need to really shake people up or create a massive stir, because otherwise you could easily go over the top and cause a few upsets. Auspicious colours are russet and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 31 and 50.
 
There's no knowing what a certain someone is going to do or say today. If they're usually a very disruptive influence, they could be as nice as pie now, or they may switch from being a pussy cat to a tiger. You're also susceptible to a change in your behaviour, especially if you start to question some of the beliefs or morals that you've always abided by until now. Insightful colours are blueberry and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 12 and 61.
 
Take care because you're in a very restless and unsettled mood today. You're easily bored and are looking for entertaining diversions, or perhaps nothing goes quite the way you planned it and you're starting to feel frazzled by so much uncertainty. A loved one might reveal a new side to themselves, in which case you won't be sure if you like it or not. Auspicious colours are raspberry and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 18 and 23.
 
It's very hard to settle down to anything for long today. You aren't in the mood, especially if you'll be doing something that's very predictable or dreary. However, it will definitely help if you can keep switching from one activity to another, or give yourself plenty of short breaks, because that will help to keep you interested in what you're doing. You may also have to contend with several interruptions or distractions. Auspicious colours are mauve and silver. Lucky numbers are 19 and 70.
 
No matter what else you've got on the agenda today, try to set aside some time to check that gadgets and appliances are working well. For instance, you might decide to run a diagnostic check on your computer, or book your car in for a service. While you're at it, make sure your finances are in order and you haven't overlooked anything vital. Practical colours are dark brown and peach. Lucky numbers are 16 and 46.
 
You'll gain a lot of quiet satisfaction from working by yourself today, especially if you're doing something that calls for plenty of concentration. It will be good to be able to focus on it to the exclusion of all else, so you don't have to worry about being interrupted and put off your stroke. You might also be offered the chance to take charge of a project that's intended to help other people. Beneficial colours are cream and ebony. Lucky numbers are 1 and 47.
 
This is the perfect day to patch up any problems that have developed between you and a partner or loved one recently. They'll be much easier to solve than you imagine, which will be a big relief. If you're still getting to know someone new, what happens between you will help to advance your relationship and bring you closer together. Favourable colours are mustard yellow and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 12 and 21.
 
Your idea of heaven is to have some time to yourself, doing things that you enjoy. You'll really value the chance to catch your breath and be by yourself for a while, especially if you want to think things through. You might also be inspired to help out with a good cause, particularly if it has a hidden, mysterious or secret quality to it. Beneficial colours are honeycomb and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 21 and 16.
 
You're in the mood to fix other people's problems today, so if a friend tells you their troubles you'll soon be racking your brains and looking for solutions. Some of your suggestions might be really good but don't be offended if they're rejected. Your role right now is to make suggestions, not to insist that they're carried out exactly to the letter. Ideal colours are peach and magenta. Lucky numbers are 20 and 25.
 
You'll enjoy having a discussion with your partner today. Give them the chance to say exactly what they think, and then reciprocate. This is also a good day for planning what you're going to do in December, especially if it's always a hectic rush to fit in lots of shopping and socializing. Devise some sort of timetable so you can feel more organized. Calming colours are jade and beige. Lucky numbers are 29 and 4.
 
If the atmosphere has been a bit dicey with a friend recently or you haven't been in touch with them as much as you'd like, this is a good day to make amends. It's a fix-it day all round, actually, because you'll enjoy mending any objects or appliances that have gone on the blink or sorting out a problem between you and another person. Ideal colours are shimmering white and violet. Lucky numbers are 19 and 23.
 
It's a good day for focusing on some of your long-term goals and objectives. Are they coming along nicely or do they seem to have got stuck?

If you've been having problems with a financial organization, such as your bank, get on the phone or write a letter today. Ideal colours are mother of pearl and oyster. Lucky numbers are 36 and 76.
 
This is a good day for sorting out your domestic finances. You need to work out a budget for a forthcoming project or bills you have to pay, before you receive some nasty reminders. It's also a very good opportunity to think about some of your priorities and values, particularly if they haven't had much of a look-in lately. Fortunate colours are sunflower yellow and spring green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 14.
 
Take a look around your home or workplace today and decide if anything needs fixing. This might be as minor as changing a lightbulb or ordering a new cartridge for your printer before the old one runs out, to sorting out a potential difficulty with a colleague or helping a relative who's hit a big snag. Whatever you're doing, the trick is to act quickly rather than to wait until the problem gets worse. Prosperous colours are oyster and aqua. Lucky numbers are 27 and 62.
 
Look around your home and decide what needs to be mended, replaced or completely discarded. Perhaps you need to do some running repairs on some of your curtains or cushions, or maybe it's about time you had a blitz on the fridge before the contents get up and walk away of their own accord! You're in a real fix-it mood. Relaxing colours are amber and sepia. Lucky numbers are 9 and 54.
 
This is a very good day for discussing any problems that have recently arisen between you and you-know-who. Don't be afraid to mention anything that's bothering you because after the initial embarrassment it will be a relief to have finally got it out into the open. And the conversation that ensues might put your mind at rest or help you to see the situation in an entirely new light. Practical colours are taupe and dark green. Lucky numbers are 33 and 25.
 
You're inspired to make some big changes in your life today; they'll take you in a new direction, with an innovative flavour.

Right now you're determined to give it all your best shot. Favourable colours are russet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 25 and 22.
 
This is a fabulous and exciting day because anything can happen. You're certainly in line for a big surprise and a wonderful opportunity, especially if these are connected with travel, spirituality, knowledge or politics.

Opportunistic colours are lavender and magenta. Lucky numbers are 35 and 26.
 
You long to break out of your shell and do something different today.

No matter what is happening in your life at the moment, you can't help feeling that everything is going to be all right. You're in an upbeat and bouncy mood, and you're also looking for interesting ways to change your life for the better. One option is to make some creative changes to your home or to the pattern of your domestic life. Don't be afraid to experiment, but first you need to get the permission of anyone else who'll be involved. Beneficial colours are dusky pink and cream. Lucky numbers are 39 and 16.
 
Life has so much to offer you today, especially in terms of excitement and unexpected opportunities. Don't expect them to simply land in your lap, or to arrive accompanied by a big flashing light saying 'This is an opportunity'. So you'll have to be inventive and ready to jump at whatever fate brings you, particularly where love and creativity are concerned. Fortunate colours are ivory and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 32 and 26.
 
If you've been wondering about how to improve your job prospects or financial status, take note of the ideas and opportunities that come your way today.

Fortunate colours are dark gold and ochre. Lucky numbers are 1 and 15.
 
Life is very stimulating and exciting today, giving you lots to think about. Jump at the chance to do something sociable because you never know where it might lead.

Fortunate colours are white and champagne. Lucky numbers are 37 and 76.
 
There are some exciting things going on in your life at the moment, promising some big changes. These will be even more interesting if you can help them along rather than simply expecting them to land in your lap. If you've always wanted to do something, now's the time to give it a try. You might also decide to rise to a challenge that would intimidate you normally but which suddenly seems too good to miss. Inspirational colours are copper and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 16 and 68.
 
You're capable of creating some big changes in your life, particularly where your long term ambitions and job satisfaction are concerned.

A relationship is about to undergo some amazing changes, so be prepared for a few surprises.

A special relationship goes through some important changes now, provided that you're willing to let that happen, Aries.

Alternatively, you could be astonished when you're on the receiving end of a romantic declaration. Opportunistic colours are pineapple and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 32 and 39.
 
The accent is on communication and discussion during the next couple of weeks, so grab the chance to thrash things out whenever possible.

Watch out during the next few days when arranging to meet friends because there could be some crossed wires, leading to confusion and possibly even missed appointments.

You will also have to be careful not to give someone the wrong impression about something important, especially if you're being cagey because you're reluctant to hurt their feelings. Opportunistic colours are lilac and apricot. Lucky numbers are 30 and 51.
 
You belong to a very brainy sign, Aquarius, and this is a great day to prove it. You'll enjoy getting involved in a mind-stretching debate, particularly if it gives you the chance to demonstrate your mighty intellect and powers of logic. This will all be very good-tempered and friendly, so there won't be any need to bang your fists on the table. In fact, there will be plenty of laughter and good humour. Dynamic colours are silver and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 34 and 30.
 
If you suspect that you went over the top yesterday, this is your chance to say sorry. This shouldn't be difficult because you're in a very amenable and light-hearted mood, and you don't want anything to spoil it. If you're going to a social event you'll do your best to have a good time, and you'll certainly be on scintillating form. Insightful colours are passionfruit and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 15 and 8.
 
Take care if you're travelling during the next few days because there are some unforeseen hitches and delays that you'll have to contend with. Some of these will be out of your control but others, such as discovering too late that you've left your passport or tickets at home, are definitely your responsibility. So check, and then double- check, that you've got everything you need before you shut the front door behind you. Oh, and make sure you've got your keys with you, too. You don't want to find that you've locked yourself out! Comforting colours are pale gold and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 49.
 
There are communication glitches during the next few days, so be careful about what you say and the way that you say it. For instance, you might make an off-the-cuff remark that you intend to be a joke but which someone else takes seriously, with rather tricky consequences. You should also take care when making decisions, and ideally should postpone anything really important until after 4 December. Ideal colours are chocolate and peach. Lucky numbers are 14 and 19.
 
It's important to keep a close and beady eye on all money matters between now and early December, as problems are likely to crop up. For instance, you might not notice an error on your credit card statement, so you end up paying more than you should. This will also be a good chance to rethink any current financial strategies in case you need to change your mind about them. Mellow colours are oyster and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 29 and 35.
 
You have the gift of the gab today, making it the perfect opportunity to talk your way out of any tight corners you're in.

Lucky numbers are 15 and 28.
 
Watch out for a few communication glitches with loved ones during the coming week. There are likely to be misunderstandings between you, leading to an unfortunate atmosphere, unless you're very clear about what you mean.

Energising colours are chocolate and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 36 and 50.
 
Things are better today than they were yesterday! You're feeling much more easy-going and relaxed, with the result that other people can also take life easy.

You'll also enjoy getting involved in one of your hobbies or pastimes. Favourable colours are burgundy and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 16 and 40.
 
The next few days will pose a few difficulties when dealing with customers and workmates, thanks to some crossed wires and misunderstandings.

There could also be a delay if you're waiting to hear about a job interview or a medical matter. Prosperous colours are bronze and silver. Lucky numbers are 7 and 55.
 
Watch out for mix-ups and misunderstandings with neighbours or close relatives during the next few days.

Prosperous colours are dark purple and silver. Lucky numbers are 12 and 44.
 
A certain someone is being rather controlling and bossy today. They're determined that you should do things in the way that they want and they won't take no for an answer, or perhaps they're making decisions for you behind your back. But there's a chance that you might be the one who's throwing their weight around, in which case you need to back off as soon as possible. Receptive colours are lilac and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 28 and 44.
 
Someone is very sure of themselves and they want everyone to know it, which isn't much fun if you're on the receiving end of their egocentric behaviour. But happily this tricky phase won't last long. In the meantime, you'll have to handle this person carefully, especially if they're in a position of authority over you. Fortunate colours are dark purple and amber. Lucky numbers are 31 and 59.
 
If yesterday brought a few emotional upheavals you need to relax and get some light relief today. Ideally, you should do something that will take you out of yourself and give you other things to think about. You'll also enjoy being in some beautiful or restful surroundings, and even a walk in the park or a stroll around a garden will help you to unwind. Favourable colours are oyster and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 31 and 57.
 
It's one of those days when you're feeling outgoing and sociable and you enjoy mixing with people from all walks of life. You won't care if they're very different from you, and in fact that will make them even more interesting in your eyes. If you're planning to go away during the Christmas break, check that you've got everything you'll need in the way of clothes, accessories and cosmetics. Liberating colours are orange and lemon. Lucky numbers are 11 and 27.
 
You need to maintain some sort of perspective, otherwise you'll have a bee in your bonnet. It's the sort of thing that you'd normally shrug off, but right now it's eating away at you. It will help to distract yourself with some physical activity, especially if you start to feel upset or irritable. Creative colours are purple and russet. Lucky numbers are 35 and 27.
 
Someone dear to your heart is taking everything much too seriously today. They're getting all steamed up about things, and investing them with all kinds of emotional significance and drama. It will be exhausting to be on the receiving end of all this, but it seems you don't have much choice. Try to encourage this person to see reason, but don't patronize them. Positive colours are chocolate and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 15 and 72.
 
A certain person wants to lay down the law today, and they won't take no for an answer. Unfortunately, the more insistent they are on having things their own way, the more determined you'll be to resist them and go your own sweet way. You're heading for a big clash, yet you're determined not to be steamrollered into carrying out this person's orders. Good luck! Favourable colours are olive and cream. Lucky numbers are 37 and 58.
 
You're so tactful today, it's as though you've joined the Diplomatic Service! Make the most of this silver-tongued day by talking to people who can be a bit tricky sometimes because you'll be able to wrap them round your little finger now. There could also be plenty of sweet nothings to say to a certain person, and you'll have a few of them whispered into your own ears too. Nice! Auspicious colours are bright red and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 31 and 54.
 
It's the perfect day for enjoying the simple life, particularly if you're feeling tired or deliciously lazy. You want to take things as gently and easily as possible, and ideally you won't want to stray too far from your own front door either. Yet you're feeling sociable, so maybe everyone should come round to your place if you want to see them. Soothing colours are violet and aqua. Lucky numbers are 12 and 54.
 
It's a repeat performance of what happened on Wednesday, only not quite so oppressive. Even so, someone is still trying to tell you what to do and give you lots of orders, and you don't like it. Alternatively, maybe you're the one who's calling the shots, in which case you should only wield power when it's necessary and not intimidate people or let them know who's boss. Auspicious colours are pineapple and plum. Lucky numbers are 51 and 6.
 
Watch out because a loved one is trying to control you today. They have very set ideas about what you should be doing and they won't like it if you don't agree with them. But the fact is that you don't, leading to awkwardness and some bad feeling. Try not to make the situation worse than it has to be by going into a sulk or making sarcastic comments. Ideal colours are silvery grey and apricot. Lucky numbers are 30 and 41.
 
Family life has its blessings but it has it problems, too, as you're aware today. Someone dear to your heart is throwing their weight around and being bossy. They think they're perfectly entitled to behave like this because of their relationship with you, but you have other ideas. Dare you tell them to mind their own business, or is it easier to keep quiet? Peaceful colours are apple blossom and fudge. Lucky numbers are 18 and 50.
 
It's easy for you to express yourself today, but you'll be very choosy about who you talk to. You certainly won't want to chat to just anyone, especially if you've got some private or sensitive things to say. So you need to choose your confidante carefully. And if you can't find anyone, jot down your thoughts and feelings on paper so you can let them out that way. Positive colours are dark green and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 7 and 67.
 
Your brain is working well today, so put it to good use. You'll be especially good at sorting out paperwork, going over details and doing complicated things. However, you might prefer to do all this by yourself to avoid a voluble colleague or customer who can't seem to stop talking. Maybe you're the one who's being such a chatterbox? Beneficial colours are spearmint and jet black. Lucky numbers are 33 and 26.
 
Put on your thinking cap today, particularly where your work and career are concerned. You should come up with some brilliant ideas, based on logic and reason, which will give you the chance to shine. It's also a great day for taking part in a discussion or meeting, because you'll have plenty to say. If you're going to a job interview, don't let nerves make you so garrulous that you don't know when to shut up. Just be yourself and you'll be fine. Soothing colours are cinnamon and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 32 and 17.
 
This is an excellent day for talking about the things that matter to you in life. Think about what they are and then describe why they're so important to you. However, this shouldn't be a monologue unless you're talking to yourself, so make sure the other people have the chance to say what they think as well. Besides, you might learn a lot from what they have to say. Favourable colours are russet and violet. Lucky numbers are 16 and 70.
 
Someone's so chatty that it will be almost impossible to drag yourself away from them once they start talking. They won't know when to stop, which is fine if you've got nothing better to do than to listen to them but not so good if you're got a long list of chores that need your attention. Be careful if you become garrulous because you won't want to listen to anyone else and that won't make you very popular. Indulgent colours are platinum and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 5 and 32.
 
A certain person has a lot to talk about today, especially when it comes to discussing the past. They'll barely draw breath, which may or may not be a good thing. If you have more urgent things to do than to listen to this person rabbit on, you'll have to come up with some good excuses. You may also need a shoehorn if you want to get a word in edgeways. Inspiring colours are smoky purple and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 12 and 60.
 
Friends are on good form today, so you'll enjoy spending time with them. Mind you, they could be very chatty, making it difficult for you to stop them talking for long enough to get a word in edgeways. If you can get them to keep quiet you'll find it valuable to be able to discuss some of your plans and hopes for the future. You'll be drawn into an intellectual debate that gives your brain a good work-out. Auspicious colours are salmon pink and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 23.
 
You're awfully talkative today! There's nothing wrong with that, of course, and you'll enjoy having plenty of good conversations. However, you should be careful not to hog the conversation all the time so no one else can get a look-in, because that will alienate everyone and might even mean you end up talking to yourself because they've all made their excuses and left. Favourable colours are ebony and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 76.
 
Your mind is open to all sorts of interesting ideas at the moment and today some of them grab you and won't let go of you. You're inspired to enrol in an evening class or some distance learning in a topic that fascinates you, or invest in a book that keeps you turning its pages. Your enthusiasm will rub off on others if you tell them what you're up to. Favourable colours are cream and coffee. Lucky numbers are 11 and 4.
 
It's a great day for expressing your thoughts, which is just what you need if you're trying to sort out what went wrong yesterday. However, you need to guard against a possible tendency to hog the conversation or to assume that your opinions have more relevance than the other person's. This sort of attitude will undo all the good you're trying to achieve. Fortunate colours are sky blue and dark green. Lucky numbers are 74 and 18.
 
Someone's in a very chatty mood today and you may find it hard to extricate yourself once you start talking to them. If you're chatting on the phone, let's hope that they made the call so you don't get stuck with a big phone bill! If you've got the time you'll enjoy writing some of your Christmas cards and might even be inspired to write the odd letter as well. It'll be fun! Inspiring colours are honeycomb and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 24 and 33.
 
This is a marvellous day for talking about whatever is bothering you at the moment, and for really exploring your feelings in depth. However, you may be shocked or worried by some of the things that come out, perhaps because you think they're unpleasant or shouldn't be mentioned in polite society. Try to choose a confidant who isn't easily fazed. Dynamic colours are gold and copper. Lucky numbers are 10 and 19.
 
Watch out for ructions with loved ones today. You may have to cope with the fall-out when someone revives an old score that they're obviously still seething about, or there could be friction over your current domestic arrangements. Don't let the situation get out of hand by turning it into a full-scale drama. Get things off your chest and then leave it at that. Auspicious colours are mulberry and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 30 and 46.
 
Be careful what you talk about today because it's easy to say the wrong thing or offend someone. Perhaps they're being ultra-sensitive and touchy, but you could still put your foot in it if you aren't careful. Try to avoid any topics that you know have the potential to cause trouble. You might also be annoyed because you've got to go out when you'd rather stay at home by yourself. Ideal colours are pale gold and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 22 and 23.
 
A loved one is hard to deal with today. Maybe they're feeling jealous, or they believe they have a right to tell you how to live your life. It will be tempting to tell them where to get off, but there may be more constructive ways to solve the problem, such as encouraging them to tell you what's really bugging them. Alternatively, you'll be the one who's feeling possessive and insecure, in which case you should try not to go over the top. Propitious colours are caramel and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 61.
 
It feels as though there aren't enough hours in the day to get everything done. You're facing a tight deadline and wondering how on earth you're going to meet it, or a sudden deluge of work lands on your desk and overwhelms you. The trick is not to panic or feel hard-done- by. Do what you can, ask for help if necessary, and focus your energies on getting things done rather than fretting about how you're going to manage. Favourable colours are dark purple and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 35.
 
Do your best to keep calm today, even though you feel that you're being unfairly treated. Going off the deep end isn't the best way to sort things out. You could feel hard-done-by when you're left slogging away at work while a colleague swans off, or you might have to take the flak for someone else's mistakes. No, it isn't fair, but it's just one of those things. Soothing colours are pastel pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 7.
 
There's friction today between what you want to do and what other people expect you to do. For instance, you might have a clash with a partner because they want you to do one thing and you want to do something completely different. There could also be problems about someone's jealousy or possessiveness, especially if it's directed at you. You won't like it one bit. Favourable colours are dark red and ebony. Lucky numbers are 31 and 59.
 
Life is rather difficult today, thanks to the tricky mood of a certain someone. This person wouldn't happen to be you by any chance, would it? It seems that you're feeling rather irritated by some of the people in your life and you can't help showing it. If you've got a genuine grievance then get it out in the open but don't be angry with people just because you're in a bad mood. That's not fair! Favourable colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 38 and 58.
 
Look after yourself today because things could be rather tricky. Someone is in a filthy temper and they want to take out their bad feelings on you, or perhaps you're the one who's breathing fire and who's looking for a suitable outlet. Either way, you should try to avoid making the situation worse than it already is by rising to the bait, saying things you don't mean or issuing threats that you don't want to carry out. Soothing colours are aqua and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 28 and 76.
 
Watch out for a difference of opinion with a friend today. You disagree about how much a forthcoming social event should cost, with one of you wanting to go for broke and the other one preferring to economize. There could also be problems about someone's possessive or controlling attitude, or you might have second thoughts about a group activity or club that you're currently involved in. Auspicious colours are peach and ivory. Lucky numbers are 7 and 18.
 
Be wary if you're going shopping today, because it's easy to get carried away and spend more money than you intended. You won't be able to resist all the goodies you see in the shops, whether they're for you or for loved ones. It won't help if you take someone along to keep you company because they'll keep encouraging you to splash out in all directions. Favourable colours are rose quartz and purple. Lucky numbers are 29 and 69.
 
You can easily put your foot in it today and feel really embarrassed at having said the wrong thing. You should be especially careful about not blurting out anything that's supposed to be a secret or which is too personal to be spread around as the latest piece of gossip. This could easily happen if you get worked up or angry about something, and there's a strong possibility that that's exactly what might happen. Positive colours are spring green and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
 
Someone is breathing down your neck today, making you feel uncomfortable and as though they're checking up on you all the time. You may also be primed for them to tick you off about something or to issue a string of orders that you've got to obey. Although you long to give this person a piece of your mind there may be reasons why that isn't possible, such as the fact that they're in charge of you and you don't want to lose your job. Favourable colours are azure and oyster. Lucky numbers are 13 and 76.
 
Maintaining a positive attitude during the coming four weeks will have a tremendous impact on your circumstances, Aries. It's very important to stay optimistic and open-minded during this time because that will increase the amount of opportunities that come your way. It will also make you feel a lot better if you count your blessings than if you dwell on what's lacking. Auspicious colours are blueberry and apricot. Lucky numbers are 28 and 35.
 
During the next four weeks you'll have phases in which you long to be by yourself, to enjoy some peace and quiet. This doesn't mean you'll disappear off the social radar screen, simply that you'll need to balance periods of conviviality with times when you can be alone. The main theme will be the chance for you to mull over what's been happening to you lately and to have a well-earned rest. Beneficial colours are cinnamon and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 22 and 7.
 
You really start to come into your own from today, Archers, and you feel much more confident than you have recently. This happy state will continue until this time next month, so there are plenty of opportunities in the wind to make the most of it. It's an especially good time to work on personal projects and to pay more attention to yourself than usual. What do you want to achieve in 2006 and how are you going to do it? Fortunate colours are gentian blue and prussian violet. Lucky numbers are 13 and 9.
 
The astrological focus has been on personal matters for the past month, Scorpio, but it switches today to your priorities and values in life. Your attention will stay focused in this area for the next four weeks. Devote more time to the people, places and things that have a lot of meaning for you, as that will bring major benefits and plenty of satisfaction. Auspicious colours are olive and sage. Lucky numbers are 13 and 21.
 
Your social life will play an increased role in your life during the next four weeks, so get set for a busy time Libra. Get involved in local activities and neighbourhood concerns which will, surprisingly, be great fun. Organize a Christmas party for some of your neighbours or arrange a get-together with close members of the family. You're certainly in the mood to party. Exuberant colours are tangerine and silver. Lucky numbers are 6 and 31.
 
During the next four weeks you'll be offered plenty of opportunities to concentrate on your career and long-term goals, so give them your best shot. Push yourself forward whenever it seems appropriate, and grab the chance to put yourself in the limelight. If you've been slogging away for the past few months without any apparent reward, all that could soon start to change when at least people start to recognize all the hard work you've been doing. And about time, too! Fortunate colours are dark gold and peach. Lucky numbers are 17 and 1.
 
Your plans for the future get a shot in the arm from today, and you want to concentrate on them for the next four weeks. This is a great opportunity to look far ahead to what you want to achieve over the next few months and years, and to work out how you're going to do it. Maybe you need to fix these dreams in your mind somehow, so you don't forget them and you subconsciously start moving towards them. Positive colours are mulberry and gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 7.
 
You're in a domesticated and family-minded mood from today and it will last for the next four weeks. This is a fabulous opportunity to spend more time with your loved ones, especially if you haven't seen much of each other lately. It will also be a wonderful chance to devote lots of time to your Christmas preparations because you'll love the cosy, nostalgic feeling that washes over you as a result. Favourable colours are dusky pink and ivory. Lucky numbers are 18 and 17.
 
The planetary focus shifts today, switching from domestic matters to love and creativity. This is your cue to dig out your party clothes and enjoy your social life to the hilt during the next four weeks? You certainly won't need much persuading to go to some festive parties, and if you're single you could meet someone very interesting under the mistletoe. Dynamic colours are purple and gold. Lucky numbers are 40 and 73.
 
The emphasis has been on having fun so far this month but from today it switches to hard work and your health. Not so enjoyable, perhaps, but important nonetheless. So during the next four weeks you need to concentrate on your job, your daily routine and your general well-being. There might also be an emphasis on your pets and on being of service to others. It's going to be a busy time! Auspicious colours are cream and caramel. Lucky numbers are 20 and 73.
 
There's a theory that every Gemini is searching for their other half, and you'll certainly feel that way during the next four weeks. At times, you'll find it difficult to be on your own for long and will crave other people's company. This will certainly be a good time to work in tandem with others because you'll do your best to pull your weight and make the experience as pleasant as possible. Favourable colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 38 and 41.
 
During the next four weeks you'll want to experience life on an emotional level and become heavily involved in what's going on around you. This means you could have some in-depth conversations with other people in which you both bare your souls and say what you really think. It will also be rewarding to do some self-analysis and to see what comes out of it. Healing colours are blonde and lime. Lucky numbers are 34 and 28.
 
Someone has a sharp tongue and they're not afraid to use it. They regale you with a long list of your faults and failings, in which they take an unpleasant relish. Alternatively, they may get it into their head to give you lots of unsolicited advice in which the main thrust is your inability to behave perfectly - in other words, exactly like them. Let it wash over you. Propitious colours are lapis lazuli and saffron. Lucky numbers are 7 and 6.
 
The planetary focus is about to switch, making you feel much less gregarious, so make the most of your current sociable urge while it's around. This is certainly a day for being with friends, partners and other people whose company you enjoy. You'll find it wonderfully easy to get along with them, and you might even make a new friend into the bargain. Great colours are hyacinth and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 6 and 26.
 
You're in a very domesticated mood today, and you'll be really happy if you can be left to potter around the house by yourself. If you can't be at home, you want to be in familiar surroundings. They'll be far more appealing than anywhere that's new or strange. At some point, you might act as a confidante for someone who needs to talk things through. Soothing colours are peach and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 36.
 
This is a lovely day for spending time with people you care about. They might be a parent or another older relative. If not, there could still be a noticeable age gap between you. If you're at work you'll enjoy being singled out for praise and you'll also want to do everything as well as possible. There should be good news about a pay rise or promotion, too. Ideal colours are tan and cream. Lucky numbers are 40 and 40.
 
Be careful if you're arranging any form of travel today, whether it's a train journey or a trip around the world, because it's likely that something goes haywire. Check any tickets that are issued to you in case they're for the wrong destination, and make sure you've been given an up-to-date timetable. Even then, you may have to cope with unexpected hitches. Ho hum. Beneficial colours are grape and lilac. Lucky numbers are 36 and 26.
 
Adventure is calling you! You're eager to do something exciting and enjoyable today and if it presents you with a challenge then that will be even better. If you're going travelling you'll have a great time and could get chatting to an interesting fellow traveller at some point. It's also a marvellous day for planning a forthcoming trip, especially if it's for fun rather than work. Ideal colours are honeycomb and navy. Lucky numbers are 13 and 76.
 
Don't be surprised if you receive a peculiar or strange letter about a financial matter today. It may contain errors or have been sent to you by mistake. Alternatively, it might be alerting you to a situation that you've been ignoring or kept in the dark about. There could also be some unexpected news about a friend or a forthcoming social event. One way and another it's quite a day! Ideal colours are pale pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 30 and 60.
 
Take care because there are communication mix-ups galore today. Your phone might go on the blink or your computer could start to misbehave, leaving you gritting your teeth in irritation. There could also be problems when talking to people you know well, because their funny little habits might cause an acute sense-of-humour failure. Cheer up, Virgo! Practical colours are silvery green and tan. Lucky numbers are 22 and 44.
 
Have fun whenever possible today as it's a wonderful time for enjoying yourself and having a good laugh. Yes, I know it's Monday but that doesn't mean you've got to walk around with a long face all day long. Maybe you should treat yourself to something nice when your work is over for the day, or arrange to go out with someone special. You might also hear something that makes you blush with pleasure. Ideal colours are olive and beige. Lucky numbers are 20 and 15.
 
Someone has some pretty extreme or contrary opinions and can't resist telling you all about them. Is this a wind-up? A member of the family might make some strange suggestions, but listen carefully before dismissing them as nonsense. Is there method in this madness?? Advantageous colours are ginger and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 18 and 35.
 
You're in a great mood, even though it's Monday. You're cheerful, friendly and keen on having a good time. You're also feeling very sociable, and will try to turn even the most minor encounter into an enjoyable meeting. What's more, you're very amenable right now, which is great for talking problems through with a partner, friend or neighbour. Positive colours are terracotta and russet. Lucky numbers are 35 and 74.
 
A thirst for adventure, challenge and knowledge envelopes you. Feelings you've experienced over the past few days seem to have become stronger, so now you're on an active quest for something or someone that will give added meaning to your life. Travel could be a good option, a long-distance journey, somewhere you've never been before. Favourable colours are charcoal and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.
 
You want to enjoy home comforts as much as possible today. You fancy the idea of being all cosy with loved ones, preferably with plenty of food to hand! Speaking of food, you could be inspired to cook up a storm in the kitchen, perhaps creating a loved one's favourite meal or cooking something that always gets your own taste buds leaping about in delight. Well, why not? Harmonious colours are aqua and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 17.
 
You crave domesticity and home comforts today. This is quite a turn-up for the books because you often feel rather restless and agitated on Sundays, but right now you want to feel as cosy and safe as possible. You'll enjoy doing some cooking, and you might even be inspired to make the Christmas cake or pudding. What's got into you, Gemini? Ideal colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 13 and 28.
 
You need to be with people today. It's turning out to be quite a sociable weekend! If you don't have anything planned and you're by yourself, why not arrange to meet up with someone. Alternatively, you could spend some time mulling over your relationships and thinking about their strengths and weaknesses. For instance, is there any way you can improve the way you connect with other people? Auspicious colours are sapphire and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
 
It's another day when you'll welcome some peace and quiet. Go for a walk on your own or perhaps you'd find it more helpful to do some meditation or contemplation. You're feeling slightly secretive right now and will prefer to keep anything very private to yourself rather than to blab about it to all and sundry. Ideal colours are platinum and maroon. Lucky numbers are 15 and 15.
 
This is a wonderful day for being with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you.

If you're taking part in a group activity you'll enjoy feeling that you're contributing something to the entire experience. Lively colours are platinum and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 35 and 37.
 
This is a beautiful day to reveal your deepest emotions, either to another person or simply to yourself. It's easier than usual to make contact with your innermost feelings, so take this opportunity to find out how you really feel about some of the things that have been happening to you lately. Give some thought also to what you owe some of the people in your life. Expressive colours are dark grape and amber. Lucky numbers are 20 and 41.
 
It's a day for pottering around close to home, getting on with the chores and chatting to whoever happens to be around. You'll enjoy yourself, especially if you can then collapse in a chair with all the Sunday papers or put your feet up in front of the television. If your thoughts stray to Christmas cards or presents it would be a good idea to start writing a few lists. Fortunate colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 23 and 53.
 
Your emotions are near the surface today and could spill over at any time. Be careful because you might get involved in a very public display of emotions, which could be embarrassing and awkward for you. For instance, you might lose your temper in the middle of the supermarket while everyone is looking at you, or burst into noisy tears in the cinema while watching a sad film. Vibrant colours are violet and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 35 and 3.
 
This is a lovely day for being with people you care about. Make a big fuss of them or get in touch with loved ones you haven't seen lately. You're in a very relaxed and easy-going mood, and you'll want to put everyone else at their ease as well. Something else you'll enjoy now is being creative and finding artistic ways to express your true self. Fortunate colours are bright red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 8 and 4.
 
You're wrapped up in your own thoughts and concerns today, making you take a rather subjective view of the rest of the world. There's nothing wrong with this because it's exactly how you should be feeling right now. But it could cause slight ructions with other people if they need your attention or concern and they don't get it. So you may have to wrench your thoughts away from personal matters every now and then. Revealing colours are indigo and white. Lucky numbers are 4 and 57.
 
You're in a very philosophical mood today, Scorp. Important topics arise, perhaps connected with religion or politics, or you're searching for answers to some of life's big questions.

Lucky numbers are 30 and 18.
 
This is a great day for getting on with some domestic or work chores. It doesn't sound very exciting but you'll enjoy knowing that you're doing something constructive and it will be good to tick each item off that list of things you've got to do. You'll also enjoy spending time with your pets and relaxing with your feet up. Uplifting colours are teal blue and white. Lucky numbers are 13 and 21.
 
How can you make your everyday life more interesting? That's the question you're grappling with today, especially if you've been feeling as though you've got bogged down in your usual routine lately. Come up with some inventive and clever solutions, even if they only tackle a small part of your daily schedule. Even making small changes is better than nothing and will inspire you to press ahead with further adjustments in the future. Ideal colours are ivory and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 35 and 4.
 
Yesterday was a tricky day and you're determined to put all the frustrations behind you. One way to do this is to cheer yourself up by doing things on the spur of the moment. Get together with someone who's got a sparkling personality or who always knows how to take you out of yourself. How about trying something you've never done before? Expansive colours are cobalt blue and crimson. Lucky numbers are 10 and 78.
 
A woman in your life wants plenty of your time and attention today. You might as well do as she asks, within reason, because she'll become a problem if you don't. If this is a recurring difficulty you need to find some way of negotiating with her, so you don't always feel as though you're at her beck and call. But, sadly, this isn't the day to do it. Fortunate colours are primrose yellow and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 41.
 
Give yourself a treat and visit somewhere new today. You're in the mood for a change, especially if you're visiting somewhere that gives you a strong emotional charge. Right now, you're looking for experiences that conjure up intense feelings, and which preferably have a lot of meaning for you too. Consider visiting an art gallery, museum or cathedral. Beneficial colours are lemon and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 16 and 52.
 
You're in the market for some excitement and entertainment today. Do something on the spur of the moment, which you've never tried before. But if that's out of the question you should at least try to get together with people who make you sparkle and who are good fun to be around. Relax and have fun. Stabilising colours are sapphire and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 31 and 57.
 
This is a great day for making a big fuss of someone you care about. They may already be feeling a little needy, especially if they think you've neglected them recently, so they'll be delighted that you're taking so much trouble over them. It's an especially good day for being at home and enjoying some home comforts, although you may feel guilty about not doing any work. Soothing colours are pastel blue and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 35 and 25.
 
You're feeling adventurous today, so get out and about at some point. Don't stay stuck in the same surroundings all day long if you can possibly avoid it, because that will make you feel stale. Go somewhere that you've never visited before or that will satisfy your current need for challenge, mental stimulation and new areas of knowledge. Soaring colours are kiwifruit and old lace. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
You'll enjoy being with loved ones today, but don't venture too far afield in the process. Why not stay home for most of the day and not even answer the phone. Do things you enjoy that enhance your life in some way. If you're currently involved in a romance or behind-the- scenes affair, you'll have a fantastic time. Romantic colours are mother of pearl and apple green. Lucky numbers are 17 and 25.
 
You're happiest if you can be left alone when you're working today. That might mean anything from having the office to yourself if you're at work to being left alone in the kitchen or garage if you're at home. It's not that you're feeling antisocial, more that you simply need a little time to yourself so you can gather your thoughts. Beneficial colours are plum and ivory. Lucky numbers are 4 and 76.
 
You'll love being with other people today. In fact, it will feel as though something isn't quite right if you have to spend the day by yourself. It's a great day for being with a partner or being part of a team, so make the experience as enjoyable and convivial as possible. However, other people may not have as much time to spare for you as you'd like, purely because they've got other commitments that need their attention. Don't make a big thing of it! Auspicious colours are violet and sepia. Lucky numbers are 1 and 11.
 
Christmas isn't far away and it's time to start thinking about the preparations. You're in the mood to begin your Christmas shopping if you haven't already started it, but do yourself a favour and work out a budget before you sally forth otherwise you'll spend a lot more money than you can afford. Mind you, your good intentions might crumble when you spot the perfect but expensive gift. Beneficial colours are cinnamon and lemon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 47.
 
Life has so much to offer today! It's in complete contrast to yesterday's mood and even if that problem hasn't gone away you're feeling better equipped to cope with it. Or maybe you're determined to put it to the back of your mind for the time being while you enjoy yourself. And enjoyment is definitely the key to success today. Liberating colours are emerald and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 30 and 15.
 
You need to be resilient today, as everything takes a lot of effort and you wonder if it's worthwhile. You're feeling despondent, tired and lethargic, as though all your energy has drained away. You may also feel that a current problem is an uphill struggle that's beyond you. Wait to see what you think about it during the next few days before giving up in defeat. This may only be a temporary blip. Fortunate colours are charcoal grey and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 26 and 56.
 
You'll have to grit your teeth, Taurus, because it's the sort of day in which very little is achieved. You feel as though you're beating your head against a brick wall at times because no one wants to co-operate with you or they refuse to do what you want. This is especially likely if you're trying to make things happen at home, and it will all be very frustrating. Ideal colours are coffee and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 2.

Diplomatic colours are copper and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 30 and 19.

Expansive colours are sky blue and black satin. Lucky numbers are 34 and 71.

You're being rather forgetful today, making it hard to concentrate on what you're doing. Why is this? Is it because you're feeling tired and sleepy, or is it because you're distracted by thoughts of other things?

If it isn't, do the best you can and try to go over it again tomorrow to make sure you haven't made any howlers. Favourable colours are jade and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 24 and 60.
 
Feelings of loneliness wash over you today, making you feel low- key and tearful.

Lucky numbers are 6 and 74.
 
Yesterday you were wreathed in smiles, but things seem to have turned a little sour today. Could that have anything to do with the miserable mood of a certain person?

This low-key phase will soon pass. Advantageous colours are marmalade and plum. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
 
Someone is confused today, especially where money or a social event is concerned. They get their facts wrong and give you misleading or inaccurate information, or they might make a mistake over how much something costs. Although there's a chance that they're doing this deliberately, it's far more likely to be a genuine error. Fortunate colours are cobalt blue and white. Lucky numbers are 2 and 19.
 
You're in a distracted frame of mind today, so it's difficult to concentrate on anything for long because your thoughts keep flying off in different directions.

A dream also contains some good ideas so write it down upon awakening. Beneficial colours are vanilla and purple. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
Watch out for the green-eyed monster today. Someone is feeling threatened, which is making them behave badly and they'll trample over your emotions. Sex is an issue now and shared finances.

Lucky numbers are 36 and 51.
 
It feels as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders today, making you downcast and lethargic.

Things aren't nearly as bad as you imagine. Insightful colours are chocolate and lace. Lucky numbers are 33 and 65.
 
Has someone got out of bed the wrong side this morning? They're in a bad mood and nothing you can say is right. Perhaps you're the one who's being the old grouch and biting everyone's head off. If so, work out what's wrong and then try to fix it, rather than simply taking it out on whoever happens to stray within firing range. It's hardly fair on them, is it? Charming colours are mother of pearl and magenta. Lucky numbers are 5 and 43.
 
Watch out when you're with friends today because they could easily wind you up and make you angry. You're looking for a reason to lose your temper.

Lucky numbers are 3 and 4.
 
You'll have to choose your words carefully between now and the twenty-sixth of November, thanks to Mercury retrograde, which scrambles everything to do with communications.

Ideally, you should avoid taking part in important discussions during this short phase to avoid potential problems. Fortunate colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 30 and 29.
 
This is the perfect day for spending money on items that will boost your confidence or improve your image in some way.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 21.
 
It's one of those days when anything can happen, but happily it's unlikely to be nasty.

In fact, a chance encounter could turn out to be very interesting on several levels, much to your amazement. Auspicious colours are silver and gold. Lucky numbers are 33 and 1.
 
A certain person is rather full of themselves today. It isn't a problem, but they're definitely being rather pompous or arrogant, and they may also claim to have lots of answers to any problems you mention. They aren't being malicious so it's nothing to worry about. If you're at home you'll enjoy relaxing and forgetting all about work. Fortunate colours are salmon pink and cocoa. Lucky numbers are 8 and 35.
 
In a benevolent and generous mood today, you're happy to put yourself out for others if they need your help. However, although you'll happily volunteer your services, you won't be nearly so eager to help out if you sense it's expected of you. If you feel pushed into doing things against your will, you'll want to rebel and show that you're a free spirit. Favourable colours are shell pink and velvet purple. Lucky numbers are 18 and 33.
 
You're very popular today! People want to be with you and they say the sort of things that make you blush with pleasure.

The atmosphere between you and you-know-who is pretty special, too, with a dash of romance and affection to keep you smiling. Lively colours are russet and green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 22.
 
During the next few days, you can't avoid confusion, especially when talking to loved ones. Someone gets the wrong end of the stick or your imagination fills in the gaps.

Ideal colours are jasmine and saffron. Lucky numbers are 38 and 73.
 
You're sociable today Cancer. You'll blossom when you're with kindred spirits, because you'll feel that you're among friends even if you don't know them very well.

Someone is being very friendly and cheerful today, even if life has dealt them a hard blow recently. They're a good example of the power of positive thinking, and you could learn something from them.

Propitious colours are silver and violet. Lucky numbers are 21 and 69.
 
A certain person is great fun to have around today. They're jovial, good-humoured and they make you laugh. However, you could be excused for suspecting that they're being slightly larger than life. Maybe they embroider a story they're telling or they display little bursts of arrogance. Never mind, you're prepared to forgive them because they're such fantastic company. Expressive colours are ochre and cream. Lucky numbers are 38 and 22.
 
You're feeling positive and upbeat, no matter what's going on in your life at the moment. You want to enjoy yourself today, and you hope that other people will have a good time as well.

Lucky numbers are 38 and 22.
 
In true Libran style, you get on well with everyone around you today. You aren't interested in picking fights or being obstructive.

Positive colours are caramel and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 14 and 54.
 
This is a great day for making constructive and creative changes in your life, especially if the very thought of them fills you with terror.

Beneficial colours are black satin and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 7.
 
Taureans like to keep their feelings to themselves, but today you're in an emotional mood and you need to share it with some of the special people in your life.

Sensitive colours are ochre and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 37 and 67.
 
Whatever you've got planned for today, at some point you'll enjoy spending some time by yourself.

If you hear about a good cause or charity that seems deserving you'll want to help it in some way. Indulgent colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 20 and 11.
 
You're in a very kind mood today, keen to help anyone who's going through a bad time or who needs someone to talk to.

Right now you're in a very compassionate frame of mind, willing to take people as you find them without expecting them to be something they're not. Ideal colours are chocolate and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 74.
 
It's a lovely, relaxing day so take things gently. Stroll around the neighbourhood, or have lunch or a few drinks with friends. You aren't in the mood to do anything too strenuous or demanding today.

This is a great day for being busy at home, doing some trouble- shooting.

You might also be fascinated by something you read or hear which describes how you can improve your health. Inspirational colours are tangerine and caramel. Lucky numbers are 20 and 45.
 
This is a great day on the domestic front. This might mean doing chores, which will be deeply satisfying because you'll feel so productive.

Uplifting colours are lilac and silver. Lucky numbers are 12 and 58.

Trust your instincts today, especially if you aren't sure of whether to take an important decision. Your gut reactions will give you a lot of valuable feedback.

Simply listening to them may be all they want and need, so don't ignore them. Exuberant colours are violet and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
 
No matter what else you're doing today, find the time to sort things out at home. That might mean tidying up your bedroom, doing the laundry, sorting out the kitchen or giving the house a thorough clean.

Advantageous colours are black and magenta. Lucky numbers are 13 and 4.
 
Immerse yourself in the Sunday papers or a good book. You're eager to give your brain some exercise, but only with ideas that fascinate you.

Instead, you're interested in things that give you a deeper and more satisfying experience. Advantageous colours are copper and silver. Lucky numbers are 17 and 58.
 
Stars say take stock of your relationships, whether they're sexual or platonic. Think about all the people in your life and what binds you together.

If you can discuss your thoughts with someone, so much the better. Favourable colours are agate and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 25 and 51.
 
Avoid putting people into pigeonholes today, and instead see them as individuals in their own right who are full of interesting qualities and contradictions.

Stable colours are dark pink and brass. Lucky numbers are 12 and 73.
 
Today you'll love doing things that are a little bit different from usual. If you're going shopping you'll enjoy visiting shops that you don't know very well or which have only just opened.

Indulgent colours are avocado and sable. Lucky numbers are 39 and 4.
 
You're drawn to people who are that little bit different today. You might even be attracted to someone who's pretty eccentric, but you'll simply be fascinated by their quirky ways and might even feel a sexual chemistry building up between you.

Romantic colours are dark pink and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 13 and 43.
 
You're often a creature of habit, Capricorn, but today you like the idea of doing things a little bit differently.

You're intrigued by someone who stands out in a crowd. In fact, you're very attracted to them, even if you won't admit it to yourself. So what are you going to do about it?

You know how easy it is to take people at face value and never to look beyond your first impressions of them.

There's a strong spark of attraction flowing between you, and the burning question is whether you're prepared to do something about it. Ideal colours are dark gold and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 7 and 61.
 
A loved one is full of surprises today. Nothing to worry about; they'll be good company and you'll glimpse new facets of their personality. You could receive an unexpected invitation from a certain person, which will be very good news if you've been wondering whether they even know you exist. Soothing colours are ebony and ivory. Lucky numbers are 22 and 35.
 
There's no accounting for taste! Someone's hidden charms sneak up on you without you realizing it today, until you've suddenly have stars in your eyes. This person may not be your usual type, yet you're very intrigued by them right now. The question is whether you'll want to take things further or whether you'd like to leave them as they are. And you probably don't yet know the answer to that one. Passionate colours are chocolate and mango. Lucky numbers are 26 and 20.
 
You may think you know someone inside out, but they've still have some surprises in store for you today. It goes to show that you should never take anyone for granted, even if you've known them for your entire life. If you were planning on doing your usual Saturday chores, how about swapping them for something much more enjoyable? Revealing colours are peach and jade. Lucky numbers are 10 and 3.
 
You're very attracted to people who are a bit different today and you'll gravitate towards them, rather than towards people who are predictable or conventional. There might even be a bit of a flirtation between you and someone who isn't your usual cup of tea, much to your surprise. It just goes to show that you can't judge people by outward appearances. Outrageous colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 23 and 17.
 
You're feeling very affectionate, and you can't think of a nicer way of spending the day than being with loved ones. Cuddle up with your own true love and make the rest of the world go away or, if you prefer, be with some close friends. Listen carefully if someone pays you the compliment of wanting to confide in you. Nice colours are persimmon and grape. Lucky numbers are 8 and 23.
 
Life is looking up again, filling you with enthusiasm and optimism. It's a great day for planning activities that you can look forward to, so get out your diary and start making some arrangements. You're especially interested in travel right now, so how about arranging a weekend away or a longer holiday? Maybe you could go somewhere during your Christmas break? Ideal colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 4 and 10.
 
You're got a hankering for adventure today, so what do you have in mind? You're eager to do something challenging, especially if you've never tried it before. Keep an eye open for an opportunity that could come your way because you won't get a second chance to grab it. You're also feeling very lucky right now so how about buying a lottery ticket or trying some other form of modest gamble. Favourable colours are taupe and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 49.
 
Take pride in being efficient and methodical in everything you do. It's good news if you're at work, because you'll enjoy showing your amazing ability. You wouldn't be human if you didn't hope that everyone will notice how well you're doing and give you some pats on the back. This is also a good day to buy something that will improve your health, or a treat for your pet. Communicative colours are ebony and aqua. Lucky numbers are 32 and 53.
 
You're in an industrious and practical frame of mind today, and you'll take pride in doing a good job. If you're at work you'll want to be respected and praised for what you do, but you'll also get a strong sense of satisfaction from knowing that you're working to the best of your ability. There should also be some good news about a pay rise or some other perk. Insightful colours are grey and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 10 and 42.
 
If you suspect that you've stepped out of line this week or upset someone, this is the perfect day to say sorry. It won't be as difficult as you think, and it will also go down very well. The atmosphere between you and workmates feels good, and you'll do your best to maintain that by being friendly. You may even want to break the ice with someone you don't know very well. Communicative colours are amber and indigo. Lucky numbers are 28 and 70.
 
You have a smile on your face after a miserable couple of days, and it feels good to be cheerful again. In fact, this is a brilliant day for getting on well with other people, and you'll really enjoy doing something sociable. If you don't have anything planned, invite a neighbour over for a drink or go out for a meal with your partner. But do something! Empowering colours are avocado and lemon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 12.
 
This is one of those lovely days in which everyone you meet is friendly and things are great. Be with friends if you can, because you'll have a fantastic time together, but it's equally good for being with that one special person in your life. Right now, all you can see are the things that bring you together, rather than anything that might divide you. Comforting colours are dark grape and ivory. Lucky numbers are 35 and 23.
 
The Stars are improving after the tensions of the past couple of days. This is a great opportunity to say sorry and mean it Leo, so don't be too proud to offer an olive branch if you think it's necessary. It's also a good day for sorting out your domestic finances by discussing them with the people concerned, especially if you've got to make an important decision about what to spend everyone's money on. Soaring colours are maroon and platinum. Lucky numbers are 9 and 60.
 
This is a wonderful day for being with people you care about. Surround yourself with loved ones, perhaps by inviting them all over to your place, or just spending time with one very special person. You'll gain emotional comfort and strength from being in familiar settings with familiar people now. You certainly aren't in the mood for anywhere very strange or unusual. Uplifting colours are dark green and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 18 and 28.
 
It's another easy-going and enjoyable day. In fact, it promises to be one of the nicest days of the entire month, so use it wisely. How about getting together with some of your favourite people, especially if you do it on the spur of the moment. Or you might enjoy going out for a meal with your beloved. Other options include a trip to the cinema or theatre, or going dancing. Fortunate colours are dark purple and lemon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 13.
 
It's another day when you find it very easy to hit it off with the people around you. If there's been a slight rift between you and a certain person recently this is a great opportunity to set things right again, even if that means being the first one to say sorry. Some great ideas emerge about your plans for the future and how to turn them into reality. Diplomatic colours are marzipan and plum. Lucky numbers are 1 and 20.
 
You need a change of scenery today, especially after yesterday's dramas. It doesn't have to be anything drastic, so it won't matter if you can't take off for the day. But at some point you need to visit somewhere interesting and which is different from your usual surroundings. You'll especially enjoy visiting a museum or art gallery. Energising colours are lavender and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 22 and 70.
 
Watch out if you're feeling restless and unsettled today because your mood could soon propel you in the direction of the shops. That's okay, but the trouble could start when you get there because you'll want to spend money purely to cheer yourself up or give you a brief flash of excitement. You may not really want what you buy or you might spend too much money on it, so try not to let yourself get carried away. Beneficial colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 17 and 4.
 
If you don't ask, you stand little chance of getting it. Putting your desires into words will have a remarkable effect, so don't be quiet! Obviously there are limits to what you can get, so don't exploit someone's generosity by asking them for more than they can comfortably give you. But if you keep things in proportion you should do well now. Fabulous colours are dark fudge and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 26 and 9.
 
You're feeling gregarious and easy-going today, so it would be a shame to spend the entire day by yourself. You've got too much to offer other people right now, including a sunny disposition and all the benefits of your enjoyable company. It's a good day to be with neighbours and close relatives, even if just for a quick cup of tea with each other. Fortunate colours are scarlet and azure. Lucky numbers are 6 and 30.
 
A loved one has very fixed opinions today, making it difficult to get on well with them because they have such a need to say what they think. The trouble is that what they think, and what you think, are two very different things, and there's no middle ground. Try not to get involved in a bitter exchange because that will only lead to hurt feelings on both sides. Empowering colours are aquamarine and dark red. Lucky numbers are 4 and 12.
 
Look around your home today and decide if it could do with some improvements, Libra. All it needs is a good tidy-up or a bunch of flowers, or break the mould and create a new interior! Leaf through magazines and find the sort of thing you want, or stroll around some inspirational shops to see what's on offer. Beneficial colours are blonde and dark red. Lucky numbers are 25 and 31.
 
You're all smiles today, which makes a nice contrast to yesterday's frazzled atmosphere. If you went over the top yesterday, make amends in whichever way seems most appropriate. This is also a wonderful day for expressing your innate creativity, whether that means painting a picture, doing some gardening, cooking a delicious meal or simply being yourself. Auspicious colours are pale gold and tan. Lucky numbers are 37 and 76.
 
Someone is in a nagging, critical mood today, making it difficult to be around them for long. Let's hope you aren't behaving this way too, because it won't make you popular! They might dredge up old scores or be unable to stop finding fault with whatever you're doing. Perhaps you should ask this person what's really bugging them because deep down it may have absolutely nothing to do with you. Maybe you're just the scapegoat? Exuberant colours are shimmering purple and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 1 and 44.
 
A friend has strong ideas about what you should be doing and they'll do their utmost to persuade you to see their point of view today. Listen to them, because they're absolutely right and you could have a lot of fun as a result. If you're involved in a group activity you may be asked to take on a bigger role in future, especially if that means being one of the organizers. Opportune colours are blueberry and cherry pink. Lucky numbers are 27 and 59.
 
It's another bad-tempered day in which you struggle to stay polite and cheerful. It's no good bottling up your feelings because you'll only feel even more angry and fed up, so either talk to the person concerned or confide in someone sympathetic. After that, you should do something physical or therapeutic, and start thinking about more positive matters. Inspiring colours are cream and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 2 and 60.
 
Sitting still is almost impossible for you today because you're in such a strange and unpredictable mood. You need to keep on the move so you can burn up your excess nervous energy, but don't keep switching from one activity to another without finishing anything because that will only make you feel even more jittery. It might also help to avoid stimulants such as strong tea and coffee. Fortunate colours are violet and honey. Lucky numbers are 23 and 20.
 
A certain person is in a nit-picking and quarrelsome mood today. They take things you say the wrong way or try to twist your words in some way. They may also be completely wrapped up in the past, making it difficult to talk to them about anything else. If you're feeling aggrieved about something, don't harp on about it endlessly. Say what you think is appropriate and then change the subject. Beneficial colours are aquamarine and lavender. Lucky numbers are 38 and 55.
 
It's horribly easy to put your foot in it today, so take care. You won't realize what you've said until it's too late to do anything about it, so try to catch any gaffes before you utter them. Easier said than done, unfortunately. But at least you can make life easier for yourself by avoiding any topics that you think might be contentious, such as religion or political theories. Receptive colours are blonde and auburn. Lucky numbers are 13 and 73.
 
There's a tense atmosphere today, making it difficult to get along with other people. Whatever you say seems to rub others up the wrong way, or maybe you're the one who's bristling with righteous indignation. There could also be a dispute over someone's emotional freedom, leading to a jealous outburst or some barbed comments. Fortunate colours are pistachio and lime. Lucky numbers are 6 and 14.
 
If you think you overspent yesterday you'll want to kick yourself today. You might also feel rather resentful towards the people you were with, perhaps telling yourself that it's all their fault. But is that really fair? You're brooding about something and it will keep you feeling cross until you're able to sort it out. Fine, but don't blame others for your own mistakes. Auspicious colours are champagne and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 21 and 49.
 
It's a tricky day, so take things gently. There's a dispute about money; a person objects to what the other one is spending their cash on, or feeling jealous about what they consider to be an unfair distribution of good fortune. It will be much better to have all this out in the open than to stew over it in private, even if it does involve having a row. You can't let this fester. Ideal colours are auburn and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 21 and 71.
 
It's one of those days when you seem to be spending the entire time chasing your tail. You have too much work and you don't know how you're going to tackle it, or perhaps you're feeling rather martyred by current circumstances and can't stop yourself telling everyone how hard- done-by you're feeling. Do what you can but don't feel guilty if you can't perform miracles. Powerful colours are opal and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 20 and 57.
 
Life has the potential to be a bit of a hard slog today. You're feeling tired and everything involves a lot of effort. It won't help if you're expected to do a lot of work or you've got someone breathing down your neck and checking that you're doing things properly. You could easily get annoyed or dispirited, but at least this tricky patch won't last long. Fortunate colours are dark purple and ivory. Lucky numbers are 4 and 58.
 
Be careful about what you say today because you might easily blurt out the wrong thing in the heat of the moment. That's particularly likely if you're feeling agitated about something or you're so keen to keep a secret that it somehow has to make itself known. If you're tempted to confide in someone you should be very choosy about who you pick, because you don't want them to blab to all and sundry. Empowering colours are champagne and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 4 and 61.
 
It's one of those days when familiarity breeds contempt, leading to angry words and tense atmospheres with the people you know best. Maybe you're brooding about something that someone has done and you can't let it go, or perhaps you're being blamed for something you weren't aware of doing. Pent-up emotion makes people behave in irrational ways today, so take care. Revealing colours are shimmering gold and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 60.
 
Someone dear to your heart is being a bit of a pain today, and you can't help letting them know it. You're feeling irritated to begin with, so it doesn't take much to make you lose your temper and give this person a piece of your mind. Alternatively, they might be angry with you, in which case you should find out what you've done and how you can put matters right. Beneficial colours are pale orange and dove grey. Lucky numbers are 11 and 42.
 
Here we go again! There are more upsets and emotional squalls to put up with today, thanks to someone's impatience and need to throw their weight around. Once again, you should be very careful not to behave this way yourself. If you are feeling angry about something, or you need to call the shots, avoid doing this in a heavy-handed or aggressive way, as that will work against you. Beneficial colours are sienna and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 21 and 14.
 
A loved one is being possessive, making them reluctant to let you out of their sight. They'll deny it, but they're opposed to the idea of you spending much time with anyone else. As a result, there could be ructions if you tell them you're going out with friends. The Stars say you don't have to put up with this; be careful how you handle the situation. You are the first Cardinal Sign and a fire Beneficial colours are sable and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 16 and 7.
 
If you cut corners or skived off work yesterday, get ready to face the music today. However, you may feel rather hard-done-by about the whole thing, especially if you also have to take the blame for problems that really aren't your fault. Try not to take out your bad mood on colleagues and customers, especially if they're simply innocent bystanders. Liberating colours are ebony and claret. Lucky numbers are 31 and 39.
 
Indulge yourself today Libra. It's an especially nice day for being with loved ones, but you don't have a lot of energy right now, so don't expect to be active all day long because it will be a struggle to keep going. The tempting thought of flopping on the sofa or relaxing with a cup of tea will be too much for you! Indulgent colours are dark pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 60.
 
This is one of the nicest days of the entire month, so make the most of it. You're feeling gregarious, sociable and affectionate, which makes a dazzling combination. If you're going out on a date with someone important, you'll have a massive impact on them. It's also a super day for going shopping, provided that you can afford what you're buying, of course. Favourable colours are sunflower yellow and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 74.
 
You fancy giving yourself a little treat today, especially if you've been feeling a bit glum recently. You'll love prowling around the shops, preferably with someone to keep you company, although you won't be very good at stopping yourself buying things that you like but can't afford. There's also a big romantic theme to the day, which will set your heart racing. Auspicious colours are baby pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 56.
 
There's only one thing you're really interested in today and that's having a good time, preferably with friends and other kindred spirits. You're in a very happy-go-lucky mood, making you open to new experiences and new people. In fact, one new connection could work out really well, so don't be afraid to get chatting to people you meet for the first time today. Insightful colours are nutmeg and jade. Lucky numbers are 31 and 3.
 
Getting on with your work is all very well, but you're reluctant to do too much of it today. You've got far more interesting things to do with your time, such as being with someone who always makes your heart beat faster. Your best bet is to get all the chores out of the way first, and then to throw yourself into having as good a time as is humanly possible. Advantageous colours are apple blossom and walnut. Lucky numbers are 16 and 28.
 
This looks like being a really enjoyable day, especially if you can spend at least part of it with some kindred spirits. You might get together with some friends, or with someone who you hope will soon become a friend. You're definitely all geared up to have some fun, and nothing less will do. If you fancy hitting the town, keep one eye on the cost in an attempt to keep it within reason. Fortunate colours are mahogany and apricot. Lucky numbers are 4 and 12.
 
You're in the mood to have some fun today, especially if yesterday turned out to be really difficult and you feel in need of some light relief. However, you'll have to get your work out of the way first, even if you don't feel like it, so do your best to tackle whatever is most urgent at the moment. You'll enjoy being with people you respect and admire, or with an older friend or relative. Receptive colours are fawn and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 52.
 
Yesterday's bad mood has vanished and the atmosphere is much more congenial and easy-going again. The Stars say it promises to be one of the nicest days in the entire month, so try to do something enjoyable with it. Maybe it's a good excuse to go out on the town with someone you really care about or to do some extravagant shopping. Whatever you go for, you'll have fun today. Propitious colours are orange and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 18 and 27.
 
Luck is on your side today, putting a spring in your step and making you feel good. It's a great day for being with people you really care about, whether they're friends or family. If the atmosphere has been tricky with a workmate, customer or client recently, you have a breakthrough that puts your relationship on a much better footing. Empowering colours are parchment and fudge. Lucky numbers are 15 and 4.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance. Actually, you won't want to do anything else, and especially not if it's connected with hard work. There's only one thing you're interested in right now and that's enjoyment. So spend the day having fun if you can, or get all the chores out of the way first so you can relax with an easy conscience. Favourable colours are chocolate and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 12 and 16.
 
It's 'ups and downs' at the moment and today it's one of the ups. All your optimism has returned, and with it your sunny nature, so use them to your advantage by apologizing if you upset someone yesterday. It will help to see the funny side of things, but not if you're trying to minimize the other person's hurt feelings. You need to play the diplomat today. Fun colours are fuchsia and cream. Lucky numbers are 33 and 37.
 
There's good news about a pay rise or promotion, giving you the perfect excuse for a mini celebration Aries. You're certainly in someone's good books right now, so enjoy this phase while it lasts. If you've been considering a change of job, you could hear something to your advantage. Liberating colours are tangerine and lime. Lucky numbers are 21 and 31.
 
You'll need heaps of patience if you're hoping to push through a financial arrangement today, because the Stars say it's likely to come unstuck. It's also highly likely that someone is successfully putting a spoke in your wheel, even though they won't be making a song and dance about it. Why is this person using such subtle tactics to undermine you? Beneficial colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 81.
 
Strange Stars are at work, so be careful, Gemini. You have to deal with someone who is secretly trying to stymie you, although they're doing their best to give a very different impression. You might also have to cope with someone who's adopted a holier-than-thou attitude which is actually a front for their highly manipulative and bullying behaviour. Watch out! Prosperous colours are silver and apricot. Lucky numbers are 31 and 37.
 
It's very difficult to make much progress today, thanks to the unhelpful attitude of a certain someone. They stand in your way, deliberately undermining you or find some other means of sabotaging what you're trying to do. Is there something malevolent in what they're doing or is it simply one of those things? You're sure at this stage. Ideal colours are turquoise and crimson. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
 
Someone is impatient and irritable today. They're looking for any excuse to lose their temper and get involved in a shouting match, and they're angry, especially if they think someone is holding them up or being very slow about something. Be wary about getting drawn into a discussion because it could easily end in a cantankerous shouting match. Lucky colours are saffron and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 36 and 76.
 
Your thoughts are flying about in several directions at once today, making it difficult to concentrate on anything for long. Such fractured thinking is making you absent-minded and also rather unsure of yourself. Ideally, you should spend much of the day by yourself, simply resting and catching your breath. Be careful if you're expected to do anything very complex or fiddly. Beneficial colours are mustard and cream. Lucky numbers are 1 and 48.
 
Money has the potential to cause a few ructions today, so be careful. Someone is in a hurry to receive a payment that's owed to them and they're agitated. Perhaps you're feeling impatient about something Libra, with a financial slant. If you decide to chivvy along a payment or financial settlement, don't let your current irritation make you seem rude or demanding. Vibrant colours are navy and mango. Lucky numbers are 34 and 2.
 
Be careful handling money today, as someone may try to coerce you into doing what they want rather than what's right for you. Does a loved one want you to spend your money on them? Could it be a persuasive sales person who's trying to convince you to buy their product? Don't let yourself be talked into doing things against your will, or your best interests. Advantageous colours are scarlet and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
Someone is being very strong-willed and determined; it means that they'll be ready to defend their position at the first hint of opposition or criticism. Watch out, because you could quickly become embroiled in a huge row. You should be even more careful if this bolshie person turns out to be you, because you might arouse a lot of antagonism. Calm down, Taurus! Positive colours are beige and lime. Lucky numbers are 1 and 11.
 
Take it easy today. You don't have much energy and your self- confidence seems to be draining away like water down the sink. What's wrong? Maybe you're dreading something that's got to happen and it's sapping your strength, or perhaps you're being undermined by someone who's in a position of authority over you. Do what you can to protect yourself until you feel better able to cope with the situation. Auspicious colours are dark green and silver. Lucky numbers are 9 and 41.
 
There's a bad-tempered atmosphere today, making people ratty and argumentative. Avoid being drawn into discussions about anything to do with politics, the environment or religion. Easier said than done, I know. Use this as an opportunity to clear the air with someone you're angry with but don't get caught up in arguing about trivia. Sensitive colours are apple blossom and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 33 and 57.
 
Put on your tin hat Leo, because someone is in a filthy temper today. You don't want to get caught in the firing line, so do your best to avoid provoking them into a tantrum. However, there's a chance that you're also feeling rather ratty and are secretly longing for an argument so you can let off steam. If so, try to get the whole thing out of your system quickly. Light colours are sienna and tan. Lucky numbers are 39 and 65.
 
More haste, less speed. Remember that today if you get caught up in a tight deadline and you're wondering how on earth you're going to meet it. Getting yourself into a flap or watching the clock will mean that you're all fingers and thumbs, with the result that you might waste time by making mistakes or turning into a butter-fingers. Take care when handling hot or sharp objects because you could be rather accident- prone. Positive colours are claret and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 38 and 72.
 
You're in a constructive and practical mood today, making you want to get on with the chores or anything else that's high on your list of things to do. You'll get tremendous satisfaction from carrying out some home improvements or being busy at work, especially if you're making the space around you more ergonomic, comfortable or efficient. Practical colours are caramel and chocolate brown. Lucky numbers are 39 and 64.
 
Once again you're feeling rather rebellious and reactionary, in a repeat performance of what happened on Friday. But this time you're feeling much more determined to rock the boat and you don't really care if you cause a huge commotion in the process. Be careful not to alienate anyone who should really be on your side. Opportune colours are sunflower yellow and periwinkle blue. Lucky numbers are 16 and 45.
 
If you've been trying to solve a financial problem recently you should come up with some very unusual ideas today. Some of them might be unworkable but others could turn out to be a stroke of genius. The fact is that you probably won't know until you've given them a go, so don't be afraid to experiment. You should also be wary of dismissing other people's ideas as rubbish until you've tried them out. Favourable colours are kiwifruit and ebony. Lucky numbers are 12 and 34.
 
Friends help to make your world go round, Capricorn. Sociable and cheerful, you'll love spending time with people you know well. Follow your dream and push ahead with your hopes and wishes for the future. You will make a lot of progress today if you put your mind to it. A friend may give you a helping hand, too. Advantageous colours are aubergine and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 36 and 43.
 
Speaking of budgets, which we were yesterday, this is a good day to see how much money you have to spend on festivities this year. It could be more than you expected or it might be a lot less, but at least you'll know the truth. You might also get caught up in a charitable or philanthropic venture today, especially if some fund-raising is involved. Fortunate colours are mango and azure. Lucky numbers are 28 and 2.
 
It's one of those days when you're kept really busy. Your feet barely touch the ground as you dash from one place to the next. There's more social activity than usual, especially with neighbours or other people you see on a regular basis. And you're blessed with plenty of tact, making it easy to say the right thing when necessary. If only every day could be like this one! Fortunate colours are mustard yellow and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 16 and 69.
 
It's another day when you'll gain a tremendous amount of emotional satisfaction, not to mention simple happiness, from being with people you care about. You'll also feel most comfortable if you can be in familiar surroundings rather than anywhere that you haven't seen before. If things have been tricky with a member of the family recently you'll find a way to make them easier today. Liberating colours are emerald and dark orange. Lucky numbers are 15 and 65.
 
A certain person's words are very provocative and controversial today. Before you get yourself into a lather about what they're saying, have you considered that they may be deliberately trying to wind you up? Perhaps you shouldn't rise to the bait, so you take the wind out of their sails? You might also hear some shocking news that takes some getting used to. Positive colours are navy and platinum. Lucky numbers are 13 and 21.
 
Spend the day with your favourite people because you'll have such a good time today. Invite them over to your place or perhaps you'd prefer to meet in a restaurant or bar. It's remarkably easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around, even if you aren't always very keen on them. Make the most of it! Auspicious colours are cinnamon and ivory. Lucky numbers are 13 and 1.
 
You're in a restless frame of mind today and easily bored. You'll want to rebel if you're with people you consider to be dull or conventional, just so you can wake them up a bit. Well, be careful how you do this because you could easily go over the top and say things that cause quite a commotion. It will be fun at the time but you know you'll end up apologizing. Fortunate colours are violet and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 33 and 78.
 
You have the happy knack today, of getting on well with whoever happens to be around, whether you know them inside out or you've only just met.

During the next couple of weeks you'll really enjoy using your brain. You might do this by reading some interesting books or testing out your powers of logic with some brain-mangling puzzles.

Fortunate colours are rose quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 26 and 7.
 
Reveal a different side of yourself today, Aquarius, especially if you're with someone who has set ideas about you. Alternatively, you'll see a new side of them, which could come as quite a shock if you've put them in a particular pigeonhole in your mind.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 6.
 
Be prepared to go with the flow today, especially when you're with friends, neighbours and close relatives.

You could also have a surprise encounter with someone you didn't expect to see. Beneficial colours are pastel pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 12.
 
Your thoughts take a domestic turn today, and they'll continue along these lines for the next few weeks. You'll enjoy talking to members of the family or having nostalgic reveries.

Even small changes could make a big difference and lead on to greater improvements. Beneficial colours are saffron and oyster. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
 
Between now and the middle of December you'll be wrapped up in your own thoughts and ideas.

Lucky numbers are 17 and 32.
 
There will be lots of contact with other people during the next few weeks, with plenty of conversations and discussions.

Auspicious colours are burnt orange and caramel. Lucky numbers are 17 and 51.
 
You need some adventure Pisces. So how can you make that happen? Scrap your usual Sunday routine completely and do something on the spur of the moment, especially if it's a total departure for you. A change of scene or a different attitude will make a huge difference to your mood and will also make you more receptive to other ways of life.

It's time to think hard about a serious relationship and how you can make it even better than it is already.

You're in the grip of some very intense emotions today, especially where your family and the past are concerned. Old memories that you thought you'd successfully buried might come to the surface again, prompting an emotional outburst or making you feel fraught.

Lucky numbers are 27 and 70.
 
A relationship goes through an important transformation today. This could be wonderful, bringing you closer together or wiping out problems that have come between you recently.

Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 29 and 60.

You're bouncing around today, full of beans. It's a lovely day for doing whatever feels natural to you, because it will be a heady and refreshing experience.

Delightful colours are caramel and ice blue. Lucky numbers are 77 and 10.

Lucky numbers are 20 and 43.
 
You have a very low boredom threshold at the moment, especially when talking to other people. In fact, you're in a rather unforgiving mood, so you'll lose patience with people if you think they're being tedious or they're telling you stuff that you've heard before. What you need is a change of scene, and as soon as possible. Even a brisk walk around the block will help to blow away the cobwebs. Propitious colours are blonde and golden sapphire. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
 
Exchange confidences with someone special today. Is there something you want to get off your chest? But don't be in such a hurry or so pushy that you alienate the one person you wanted to talk to.

Is a certain person deliberately trying to shock you, or don't they have any idea of the effect they're having on you?

What can you do and does it really matter? Beneficial colours are pastel pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 20.
 
If you've been concerned about a loved one and you've been waiting for the right time to talk to them, that moment has now arrived.

This is also a good day for sorting out some long-running domestic issues or chasing up items that have gone astray. Empowering colours are bright red and silver. Lucky numbers are 17 and 59.
 
You have an aversion to doing things by the book today, which means you'll long to rebel when faced with rules and regulations.

Lucky numbers are 19 and 64.
 
There's no knowing what someone is going to do today, so be prepared for them to take you by surprise. Even if you feel threatened by their unpredictable behaviour, do your best not to crowd them because that will make them feel hemmed in and trapped, and then they'll want to escape from you. On the other hand, maybe you're the one who's feeling suffocated by a particular relationship at the moment? Fortunate colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 4 and 34.
 
Concentrate on tasks that have a lot of meaning for you, Rams, because you'll put loads of energy into them.

If you need to persuade someone to see things from your point of view, now's the time to do so.

Communicative colours are claret and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 10 and 74.
 
You have the happy knack of getting on well with others today, whether you meet them for business or pleasure. You can get them on your side, so you'll have their support and encouragement.

Favourable colours are primrose and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 18 and 20.
 
This is a lovely day for being with people whose company you enjoy, and it would be a shame to miss out on all this by spending the day entirely alone.

Ideally, you should go out with someone you adore, whether you're meeting for a drink or a meal, or planning a trip to the cinema. Beneficial colours are ginger and jade. Lucky numbers are 37 and 28.
 
It's a good day for getting things done, such as working your way through a stack of paperwork or doing some filing. You're in an efficient and practical mood, and you'll enjoy doing things to the best of your ability. If you work from home, this is a great opportunity to improve your surroundings in some way, perhaps by reorganizing your desk or simply having a good old tidy-up. Positive colours are treacle and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 4.
 
It's a good day for spending time with someone you respect and admire. You don't want to be in a big crowd because that's not what you're in the mood for, but you're perfectly happy to be with someone who's quiet and reflective. If you're at work you'll do best if you can be left to your own devices without any interruptions or questions to put you off your stroke. Fortunate colours are spring green and copper. Lucky numbers are 37 and 20.
 
Lions are in a domesticated mood today. So much so, in fact, that you're tempted to spend money on your home or family. This might mean nothing more exciting than doing some food shopping, although you'll still enjoy buying treats for your loved ones, or you might fancy something much more ambitious, such as investing in things that make your home more comfortable or valuable. Auspicious colours are dark gold and russet. Lucky numbers are 10 and 29.
 
If you want to make the most of today's astrological influences, you should devote some time to tidying up financial matters and sorting out queries connected with your work. Other people could be very helpful in this so don't be shy about asking for help if you think it's necessary. You could get a lot more co-operation than you expected. Fortunate colours are almond and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 24 and 12.
 
Carry on with your plans to realize your aspirations, Capricorn. You'll get a lucky break, or find that you're in the right place at the right time, in which case you should take full advantage of the situation. It's also a good day for arranging a forthcoming journey or long-distance trip, especially if it involves seeing friends or taking part in a group activity. Dynamic colours are dark pink and violet. Lucky numbers are 28 and 60.
 
Well, no sooner have I told you to keep an eye open for opportunities than one comes along. It may not be as wonderful as you would have wished, and it might even come thinly disguised as something else, but that's no reason to ignore it. You could also hear from someone who lives a long way away or who has a very different background to yours. They' have an exciting proposition for you. Expressive colours are obsidian and yellow. Lucky numbers are 9 and 49.
 
It's a wonderful day for being with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you, so try to spend time with them.

Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
 
Your social life has a lot to offer today, so try to mix with as many people as possible. This certainly isn't a day for being solitary unless you have little choice in the matter, and even then you might want to write some letters or make some phone calls so you can still keep in touch with others. It's also the perfect day to tell someone you love them, even if they already know it. Prosperous colours are fawn and aqua. Lucky numbers are 20 and 14.
 
Fancy doing some shopping? You'll enjoy the shops, especially if you can go by yourself so there's no one to hurry you up or ask irritating questions.

Lucky numbers are 6 and 38.
 
You're in a really good mood today and you want to spread it around so everyone can enjoy it. It's a great day for being with loved ones, especially if you can go out together and do something nice.

News flash! You're about to embark on a year of increased good fortune and plenty of great opportunities, as fortunate Jupiter, your life-ruler, cruises through Scorpio.

People have a knack of rubbing you up the wrong way today. Or rather you have a knack of being easily annoyed. What's bugging you?

Ask yourself what's really wrong. Positive colours are white and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 19 and 23.
 
Take care today because there's a tricky astrological atmosphere and it's causing ructions with friends and loved ones.

Lucky numbers are 35 and 17.
 
Watch out because it's rather a difficult day. People are awkward and argumentative, or so it seems to you. Is the real reason for their bad moods that you're the one who's being tricky and hard to handle, and they're getting fed up with you? Cheer up and do your best not to throw your weight around, or take out your irritation with one person on someone else. Fortunate colours are crimson and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 8.
 
The better you know someone the more likely they are to get right up your nose today. However, you don't have to make it any more unpleasant than necessary.

Forget the past. It's over! Fortunate colours are violet and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 51.
 
Someone is feeling possessive and jealous, and they don't care who knows it!

It's a good chance to clear the air, but don't start any arguments you can't finish, or make threats if you won't act on them. Positive colours are aqua and ivory. Lucky numbers are 40 and 14.
 
A row has been brewing between you and a certain person recently and it comes to a head today. It's important to clear the air, rather than having all this tension hanging over you for much longer.

Fortunate colours are electric blue and shimmering pink. Lucky numbers are 18 and 69.
 
Prepare yourself for a rather bad-tempered day in which it's difficult to keep things on an even keel. People are crotchety, and you aren't exactly sweetness and light either.

Inspirational colours are lilac and copper. Lucky numbers are 32 and 39.
 
You aren't happy with the way someone is managing their finances at the moment, and you've reached the stage where you have to say something.

There could also be problems about someone's possessiveness. Let's hope it isn't yours! Exuberant colours are lemon and ice blue. Lucky numbers are 37 and 70.
 
The more power someone has the keener they are to use it today, which means you could have a tricky encounter with a certain person who's being very heavy-handed. They want to throw their weight around and show you who's boss, or they're issuing orders left, right and centre because they know they can. Don't behave in the same way yourself, because it will only provoke a backlash. Beneficial colours are brilliant white and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 36 and 24.
 
Things that you were hoping to keep under your hat have a nasty habit of turning themselves into public knowledge today, so be careful what you say. You may blurt something out in the heat of the moment and then realize that you should have kept quiet. Be especially careful if you're tempted to tell someone a secret because they may not keep it to themselves. Fortunate colours are marmalade and champagne. Lucky numbers are 36 and 29.
 
Finances and friendships don't necessarily go together now, so be warned. Maybe you disagree about how much a social event should cost, with one of you opting for economy while the other wants to break the bank. A sense of possessiveness emerges if someone has other fish to fry besides you. Don't make a big thing out of nothing. Lucky colours are mango and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 3 and 28.
 
You're feeling frazzled and ratty today. You have too much work, or you're irritated because you've been left with all the chores, while someone else swans off and has a good time. Try not to think or act like a martyr, because that won't help at all and will also make you very annoying to be around. However, complain if necessary. Instead, complain if necessary or simply grit your teeth and get on with the day's tasks. But give yourself something nice to look forward to at the end of them. Energising colours are topaz and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 36 and 20.
 
It's a good day to get on with whatever chores or tasks have to be tackled. You'll enjoy giving them your full concentration and doing them to the best of your ability.

Advantageous colours are bright green and orange. Lucky numbers are 14 and 5.
 
You're full of confidence and enthusiasm today, so it's an excellent day for getting ahead at work or in one of your long-term goals. You're ready to take problems on the chin and work round them, rather than letting them slow you down or make you depressed. You have a well-connected supporter who's willing to help you in some way. Auspicious colours are ultramarine and mauve. Lucky numbers are 12 and 31.
 
It's a day for mixing with some of your favourite people, preferably face to face so you can get the maximum enjoyment from their company. But if that isn't possible for some reason, perhaps because they're busy or far away, do the next best thing and get in touch with them by phone or over the internet. If you haven't told someone that you love them lately, do it now while you're feeling so expressive and affectionate. Opportune colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 25 and 62.
 
You're in a very talkative and upbeat mood today, and you'll enjoy nattering about whatever happens to pop in your mind. It's a wonderful opportunity to catch up on all the gossip with someone, even if you can only do it on the phone or by email. If you have time, you'll enjoy putting your thoughts down on paper or getting involved in something with spiritual or mystical overtones. Expressive colours are parchment and lilac. Lucky numbers are 1 and 75.
 
Take care when passing the shops or browsing websites that are selling you something, because you'll be very tempted to spend in all directions. Right now you're more concerned with the pleasure you'll get from your purchases than with their cost, which doesn't matter if you're feeling flush but isn't nearly such good news if you're supposed to be saving your cash. Beneficial colours are violet and coffee. Lucky numbers are 36 and 19.
 
You have a thirst for adventure today, so what do you have in mind Virgo? Not like you normally, but break out of your routine today. Be careful - accidents are likely. Don't do anything too extreme or daredevil; ideally, you should take someone along for company to keep you grounded. Ideal colours are smoky quartz and shimmering pink. Lucky numbers are 39 and 45.
 
You need some fresh air today, especially if that involves visiting somewhere for the first time. If you can't get out physically, do so mentally instead by doing some research or reading and acquiring some knowledge in the process. If you've been thinking about going away for Christmas but haven't planned anything yet, get cracking now while you're in the right frame of mind. Empowering colours are brass and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 16 and 57.
 
You're full of confidence today and it shows. It's a terrific opportunity to push yourself forward in some way, yet without going over the top about it. Make the most of today's upbeat and friendly mood, because it will help you to mix with all sorts of people from all walks of life. It's especially good for talking to anyone who would normally overwhelm you or make you feel inferior. Fortunate colours are sage and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 19 and 52.
 
It's one of those days when you're dashing around from pillar to post, trying to catch up with yourself. You'll enjoy it and it will certainly help you burn up loads of nervous energy. If you're taking part in a local or neighbourhood activity, you'll get a big kick out of it and may even manage to rope in some other helpers. Ideal colours are cream and copper. Lucky numbers are 18 and 64.
 
Get busy around your home today. You'll enjoy dashing around, perhaps doing some cleaning or tidying up the garden. You have lots of energy right now, so it will be a pleasure to put it to good use. If you're going shopping you'll have much more stamina than usual, and you'll also be prepared to do some bargaining if it seems appropriate. Beneficial colours are crimson and lemon. Lucky numbers are 23 and 22.
 
This is a good day for mulling things over in private and reflecting on some of the things that have happened to you recently. You might also enjoy discussing them with someone, provided that you trust this person and you know they won't take everything you say and turn it into the latest gossip. If you don't fancy confiding in a person, how about writing down your feelings in a journal. Prosperous colours are fawn and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 12 and 31.
 
It's a great day for getting on with whatever needs to be done. You're in an energetic and enthusiastic mood, and you'll enjoy making things happen. You're especially effective if you're at work, because you'll be determined to achieve whatever you set out to do. If you're working in conjunction with someone, don't push them into the shadows while you grab all the limelight. Beneficial colours are dark pink and coffee. Lucky numbers are 21 and 72.
 
Your ambitions are fired up during the coming four weeks, and you'll have a strong need to be seen in a good light. This might be your cue to put the finishing touches to a long-term project that you've been working on and which you hope will boost your reputation. Alternatively, you might find yourself in the limelight when your recent hard work pays off and you're promoted or praised for what you've achieved. Inspirational colours are aubergine and silver. Lucky numbers are 12 and 63.
 
Serious topics attract you during the next four weeks, so look below the surface of things to find out what's really going on. However, you should think carefully before investigating anything that has the potential to blow up in your face, and ask yourself whether you really want to know the truth about it. Maybe ignorance can sometimes be bliss? Favourable colours are russet and silver. Lucky numbers are 18 and 27.
 
The astrological focus shifts to your hopes and dreams for the future today. You must concentrate on your aims and aspirations now, Capricorn. You can turn some of them into reality during the coming four weeks. This is also a great time for being with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you. Uplifting colours are agate and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 9 and 41.
 
Your confidence starts to increase today, as does your energy and you'll remain in an upbeat and enthusiastic state for the next four weeks. This is a great time to forge ahead with existing personal plans or to get a whole load of new ideas off the ground. You'll be very wrapped up in your own concerns between now and late November, but try not to come across as completely self-obsessed. Auspicious colours are peacock blue and platinum. Lucky numbers are 38 and 36.
 
The coming four weeks will be full of laughter, happiness and love, so you've got plenty to look forward to. If your social life has been languishing on the sidelines recently, this is your chance to give it an injection of energy. You're all set to have a really good time! It will also be a wonderful opportunity to explore your creativity. Auspicious colours are tangerine and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 19 and 37.
 
During the coming four weeks you'll have itchy feet. You'll long to do some travelling or have a change of scene. So do it, Fishies. What's stopping you? Even a weekend away will be better than nothing and will give you a new surge of energy. If that isn't possible, how about arranging a trip or holiday that you can take soon, such as over the Christmas break. Ideal colours are teal blue and shimmering red. Lucky numbers are 4 and 12.
 
During the next four weeks you'll go through phases when you're much less sociable and outgoing than usual. You'll want to keep yourself to yourself, and may even have unaccustomed bouts of shyness and reticence. Don't worry, this is exactly how you should be feeling, and it will give you the chance to enjoy your own company and recharge your emotional and physical batteries. Prosperous colours are dark green and apricot. Lucky numbers are 4 and 40.
 
During the coming month you'll want to spend a lot of time on your priorities and values in life. Consider whether you devote enough time to them, or whether you need to make more room for them. Perhaps you should get up earlier each morning so you can have some precious time to yourself before the business of the day begins? Propitious colours are oyster and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.
 
Your focus starts to switch to your work and your health from today, and during the next four weeks these areas of life will demand a lot of your attention. Maybe you aren't happy with your current job, in which case this will be a super opportunity to see what's on offer. Or perhaps you're well aware that you need to sort out a health problem before it gets any worse. Communicative colours are aqua and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 3 and 8.
 
Some of your relationships haven't exactly been plain sailing recently, but from today you're filled with the renewed desire to create harmony rather than friction. During the next four weeks there will be times when you need to be around others in order to feel complete, and you may even be reluctant to be left on your own for long. Favourable colours are dark brown and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 35 and 38.
 
The coming four weeks will be very lively and entertaining and they'll also keep you pretty busy. You'll be out and about a lot more than usual, with plenty of short journeys. There will also be plenty of interaction with neighbours and close members of the family, so it's a good opportunity to increase your rapport with them or simply to enjoy their company. Dynamic colours are sapphire blue and sapphire green. Lucky numbers are 9 and 47.
 
The focus switches today from your social life to your family life, and it will stay this way for the next four weeks. The coming month will be an excellent chance to spend more time with loved ones, whether you're doing something special or simply enjoying their company. You may also want to increase your physical or emotional security in some way. Auspicious colours are silver and gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 39.
 
Someone has a very sharp tongue and you're about to be lashed. Maybe this person has good reason to be angry with you, or perhaps they're on the warpath and you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. If you get drawn into an argument, you'll want to give as good as you get but don't say things that will cause lasting bad feeling and resentment. Auspicious colours are burgundy and beige. Lucky numbers are 14 and 58.
 
The more important something is to you, the more likely you are to get drawn into an argument about it, Aries hotheads! You won't do this consciously, but don't get so worked up that you turn the conversation into a heated debate you're determined to win. Try not to score cheap points off the other person by being hurtful or rude. Auspicious colours are mango and cream. Lucky numbers are 38 and 30.
 
There's a very combative atmosphere today, with people squaring up to each other for an argument. Once the row starts, the verbal gloves will be off and some stinging comments will be exchanged. If you're on the receiving end of an insult or sarcastic comment you'll long to reciprocate, but will that really do any good or will it simply raise the stakes even higher? Soothing colours are pale gold and avocado. Lucky numbers are 7 and 37.
 
You're in a terrific mood today - cheerful, gregarious and happy. You're also feeling extremely optimistic, so anything seems possible right now and you're prepared to take a few chances if necessary. However, try not to get so carried away that you start taking foolish risks because you're so utterly convinced that nothing can go wrong. You aren't infallible, you know! Auspicious colours are apricot and plum. Lucky numbers are 36 and 63.
 
If you're going shopping today, take someone with you to keep an eye open. Even more so if this person is a close partner or a member of the family. You should definitely take someone with you if you're buying items for a home that you share, because it will help to have this person's input, especially if it's combined funds. Fortunate colours are white and grape. Lucky numbers are 18 and 4.
 
Luck is on your side today, so take full advantage of it. Don't be silly or reckless; make sure you know when to stop. Even so, you might fancy a modest gamble. Do your best to visit some completely new surroundings at some point, or spend the day in a cultural or spiritual setting that feeds your soul. Advantageous colours are marmalade and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 75.
 
This is a fantastic day for putting yourself in the limelight in some way, and increasing your status and reputation as a result. Something that you've been slogging away at recently might finally see the light of day and earn you lots of congratulations, or someone you respect may pay you a compliment. All this is great but don't let it go to your head and make you seem very full of yourself. Favourable colours are magenta and ivory. Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
 
You're full of confidence today, especially if you have to take part in a group activity or take the lead in some way. You'll do really well, and will have plenty of reasons to feel proud of yourself. Consider your hopes and dreams for the future and decide whether they really stand a chance of seeing the light of day, or whether you should scrap them and start again. Fortunate colours are lilac and peach. Lucky numbers are 20 and 74.
 
You're in a very expansive mood today, making you want to experience whatever life has to give. Things are going well for you, and you're feeling confident. That's great, and you're full of optimism about your home life and your family. Be careful if you're currently involved in a property deal or home improvement plan because you're so confident of success that you could overlook a rather serious snag. Auspicious colours are coffee and cream. Lucky numbers are 36 and 18.
 
You're in a very expansive, generous state of mind today, open to all sorts of possibilities and willing to give things a try. You're also feeling positive and optimistic, so situations stand a good chance of working out well.You're attracting the right sorts of outcome, but don't let this confidence turn into cockiness or arrogance. Soaring colours are avocado and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 28 and 42.
 
It's a very feisty and explosive day, so be careful Virgo. Someone seems to have got out of bed on the wrong side and they're taking their bad mood out on whoever happens to get within shouting distance. This won't make them very easy company, especially if they're convinced that theirs is the only valid opinion and that everyone else is talking nonsense. You'll soon get tired of their arrogance and aggression. Soothing colours are almond and ivory. Lucky numbers are 30 and 77.
 
You're full of confidence today, and it shows. It's the perfect day for saying what you think with conviction, and without worrying that anyone is going to make fun of you as a result. You're prepared to stand up for what you believe in. But don't get so carried away with the sound of your own voice that you become rather pompous or self- important, because then you will make yourself a laughing stock. You'll also encourage people to bring you down a peg or two. Energising colours are aqua and ebony. Lucky numbers are 9 and 76.
 
You're in a very kind and considerate mood today, making you eager to help anyone who's going through a hard time or who needs your assistance. You're keen to be of service, in true Virgo style, even if this involves doing unglamorous things such as cooking a meal for someone who's ill or visiting a family member who can't get out much. Empowering colours are copper and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 40.
 
If you need help or support, don't be afraid to ask for it, Taurus. It's one of those days when people rush to your aid if they think you need it. Alternatively, you may be the one who's asked to lend a hand, in which case you'll want to do whatever you can. Beware of making promises you can't keep, purely to make yourself feel better about the situation. Auspicious colours are dark green and tan. Lucky numbers are 19 and 8.
 
In classic Piscean style, you're feeling compassionate and understanding today. You want to help if you know someone who's having a difficult time, even if all you can do is to listen to them while they pour their heart out to you. In fact, that might be more valuable than giving them some physical or financial assistance at the moment, so don't feel bad if you can only offer a sympathetic ear. Peaceful colours are copper and aqua. Lucky numbers are 23 and 56.
 
This is a great day for being with other people because you're making a big effort to get on well with them and to see their best side. However, this won't cloud your judgement or make you blind to their faults, so there is little danger of you fooling yourself in some way. You're also in the mood for some romance, so how about getting together with that special person in your life. Favourable colours are vermilion and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 14 and 12.
 
In complete contrast to yesterday's irascible mood, you're now feeling very mellow and accepting of other people. In fact, you're prepared to overlook any funny little habits someone might have and concentrate on who they really are instead. You're also in the mood to watch a romantic film or read a tear-jerking book, and to lose yourself in some overwhelming emotions. Auspicious colours are sky blue and avocado. Lucky numbers are 34 and 51.
 
It's a lovely day for getting together with someone you care about, especially if you're planning a romantic interlude with them. Maybe you've both got something to celebrate, in which case you'll want this to be a very memorable occasion. If you're going out on a date with a potential lover, things are likely to be very intimate and tender between you very quickly. It's quite a day! Expressive colours are champagne and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 23 and 49.
 
You're in a compassionate and sympathetic frame of mind today. If someone's in trouble, you'll help in any way you can. This might involve putting your hand in your pocket to give them some financial assistance but, if so, try to make sure you aren't being ripped off before you swing into generous action. If you're stopped in the street by someone collecting for charity, check that it's a real charity they're talking about and not something bogus. Favourable colours are antique gold and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 19 and 31.
 
Today brings a wonderful opportunity to cherish your friends, whether you have the pleasure of being with them in body or in spirit. Let a pal know how much they mean to you - they'll be thrilled. This is also a super day for getting involved in a pastime or belief with spiritual, mystical or religious overtones, whether that means visiting a church or giving yourself a tarot reading. Powerful colours are peacock blue and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 32 and 28.
 
You long for home comforts today because you're in a very sensitive state. You want the simple things in life right now, especially if they're very familiar and don't require any effort on your part. For instance, curling up in front of the fire while watching television or lazing in a scented bath would suit you just fine. You certainly aren't in the mood to do anything strenuous or taxing. Positive colours are aqua and emerald. Lucky numbers are 19 and 58.
 
If you know you stepped out of line yesterday, now's the time to apologize and mean it. This is a wonderful day for showing your tremendous Aquarian compassion and philanthropy, particularly if that means helping people who are in a bad way. For instance, you might listen to a friend who's going through a hard time or volunteer to help a good cause. Fabulous colours are turquoise and platinum. Lucky numbers are 20 and 44.
 
Spend time with that special person in your life, or at least have some sort of contact. You're in a highly romantic, lovey-dovey mood, so the thought of gazing into you-know-who's eyes makes you go weak at the knees. If that isn't possible today, satisfy those romantic yearnings in some other way, perhaps by watching a soppy film, or listening to some spellbinding music. Beneficial colours are primrose and viridian. Lucky numbers are 4 and 33.
 
You're in a very understanding and compassionate mood today, especially when it comes to listening to someone's troubles. You'll gladly let them tell you what's wrong, and will do your best to give them all the emotional support you think is suitable. If you're at work, a colleague could do with a helping hand. You've got a very soft spot for a certain someone right now, and it shows! Beneficial colours are grapefruit and jade. Lucky numbers are 17 and 9.
 
Take care of details and important arrangements today. You're in the sort of mood where you're eager to dot all the Is and cross all the Ts, especially if you're at work or sorting out a financial matter. It will be good to know that you've done things as efficiently as possible. If you're going food shopping you'll enjoy sniffing out bargains and special offers. It will give you a strong sense of satisfaction. Uplifting colours are pistachio and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 39 and 65.
 
Talk to someone whose opinion you respect, because they'll have some great ideas for you. An interesting and wide-ranging discussion will give you plenty of food for thought. If you've been toying with the idea of visiting someone who lives far away, or they're coming to see you, this is a good opportunity to firm up some of the details. Auspicious colours are black and claret. Lucky numbers are 3 and 8.
 
You have a much better grip on what you're meant to be doing, which is good news if you're worried about how everything seemed to unravel around you yesterday. Sort out any problems that you accidentally created yesterday, while your thinking is so clear and practical. It's also a good day for writing important or detailed letters, or filling in forms. Ideal colours are white quartz and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 18 and 41.
 
This is a fantastic day for mapping out some of your future plans. You're in a straight-thinking mood and it will help to be able to bounce your ideas off someone whose opinions you respect. Talk to a friend or a kindred spirit about whatever is important to you right now. Do some serious listening when this person talks to you in return. Ideal colours are cobalt blue and tan. Lucky numbers are 18 and 34.
 
It's a difficult day because you feel bogged down. Family expectations of you, domestic commitments or the big pile of bills are getting you down. Whatever's wrong, you're in no mood to simply grin and bear it. Instead, you need to give yourself some breathing space so you can return feeling refreshed and better able to cope. Fortunate colours are apricot and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 40 and 55.
 
You need plenty of amusement and distraction today, otherwise you'll be very bored and create your own diversions. If your schedule is looking drearily familiar, try to rearrange it in some way so it's more interesting. Even small changes will help to calm your restless mood. You should also try to keep away from people who are ultra- conventional because they'll be like a red rag to a bull. Auspicious colours are dark blue and lime. Lucky numbers are 1 and 23.
 
You don't have much patience today, especially with your partner and members of the family. Someone will easily get on your nerves in about two seconds flat, even if they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. It's particularly difficult to be around people who are ultra conservative or highly predictable, so keep your distance until you're feeling more tolerant. Ideal colours are magenta and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 37 and 45.
 
It's important to keep yourself amused today, because boredom is just around the corner. Once you start to get fed up it could work out very expensive because you'll immediately start to think about spending money. As a result, you might splash out on all sorts of things you don't really want and might not even like very much. Liberating colours are teal blue and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 11 and 1.
 
You were having problems with financial matters on Tuesday but you're definitely back on track today. As a result you'll be able to unravel any problems you had the other day and put them right. It's also a good day for checking through your bank statements or chasing up outstanding financial queries. You're in the mood to get things straight. Opportune colours are black and white. Lucky numbers are 35 and 15.
 
You're feeling restless and agitated. You're looking for distractions and some light relief, and if you can't find them you'll manufacture them yourself. This means you might pick an argument with a loved one purely to liven up the day or you may do something else that puts the cat among the pigeons. Isn't there a less destructive way to work off your current mood? Inspirational colours are dark gold and magenta. Lucky numbers are 34 and 18.
 
Lend an ear to a loved one because they could do with your help. They may want to pour their heart out to you, in which case you'll do them a favour by simply listening. Alternatively, they may want your advice, but even so you should wait to be asked before giving them the benefit of your opinion. Above all, let them know that you're there for them. Communicative colours are bright red and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 14 and 57.
 
You need a complete break from a certain person now, otherwise they'll drive you crazy. Maybe they're being boring or they're too demanding of you, or perhaps you're coming on too strong for them and you need to lay off for a while. You certainly shouldn't try to tie anyone down now because they'll want to run in the opposite direction as fast as their legs will carry them. Favourable colours are silver and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 35.
 
You have a lot on your plate now and it's getting to you. You're trying to do too much and you're wondering how you're going to get it all done in time, or you have bogged down in petty details about something and now you can't think straight. It will help to give yourself a breather; get rid of the fog in your brain by taking some exercise. Communicative colours are bronze and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 30 and 46.
 
A certain someone is in a very scratchy and ratty frame of mind today, making it hard to be around them for long without getting your head bitten off. Try not to provoke this person into being even more bad-tempered, because that won't be much fun. You could get caught up in petty details now, so try to cope with the facts without obsessing about them. Fortunate colours are pastel blue and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 13 and 27.
 
This is a marvellous day for being active and energetic. Even if your idea of being energetic is to open a packet of biscuits, it would do you good today to go for a brisk walk, get your money's worth at the gym, go jogging in the park or knock a football around. Or perhaps you have some indoor games in mind. If you don't find a physical outlet for all your energy, it will start to make you irritable and restless. Dynamic colours are bright yellow and ebony. Lucky numbers are 14 and 69.
 
You're in a very inquisitive frame of mind and you want to find out what a certain person is up to. Don't develop a one-track mind though, or become stuck on facts. There is something beneath. The real problem right now is that your emotions are at loggerheads with your thoughts, and you're being torn this way and that. The good news is that this tricky phase will soon pass. Ideal colours are burnt orange and pale yellow. Lucky numbers are 34 and 66.
 
If you're still wondering what a certain person was talking about yesterday you'll be anxious to get to the bottom of it today. But try to keep your temper while you're doing it, otherwise you'll give this person a real grilling and that may not be very helpful. You're chasing facts but you're also expecting others to be ultra logical, and that may not be possible for them. Have a heart! Happy colours are mandarin and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 12 and 64.
 
There's a sense of urgency about a close relationship today. Maybe you're in a panic that you won't be able to make this person understand how you feel about them, or perhaps the two of you are overcome by passion and everything else has to take second place. There's a strong chance, though, that you'll get slightly irritated with each other at some point. Communicative colours are green and marigold. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
This is an excellent day for talking about your feelings, but you must be honest about them. It's no good saying what you think other people want to hear or censoring your thoughts. You need to speak from the heart in order for the experience to be valuable, although you may feel the need to be tactful in order to protect someone's feelings. After all, there's a difference between being honest and being cruel. Positive colours are jasmine and agate. Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.
 
A friend is full of enthusiasm today, and it's very infectious. They want to persuade you to do something and they're giving it the hard sell. But don't let yourself be bullied into saying yes. On the other hand, you may be the one who's trying to talk a friend into following your lead, in which case you'll feel irritated if they don't play ball. But why should they? Ideal colours are pale pink and plum. Lucky numbers are 13 and 76.
 
It's easy to get bogged down in trivial details, Gemini, so don't lose sight of what you're trying to do, or you won't see the wood for the trees. If you feel that you're drowning in a sea of papers, being bombarded by emails or having to cope with too much information in one go, tackle things in their order of priority so you can protect your sanity. Fortunate colours are terracotta and spring green. Lucky numbers are 38 and 52.
 
Someone's in a very critical and nit-picking mood today, making it hard to talk to them without getting the sharp edge of their tongue. However, there's every chance that this person is you, especially if you're still feeling annoyed about what happened yesterday and you're now trying to get the facts straight. Bullying people or snapping at them won't help the situation, you know. Favourable colours are lilac and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 31 and 21.
 
A certain person is in a right old state. They're obviously spoiling for a row, because they keep correcting what you say or pointing out the flaws in your argument. Any sort of debate or meeting could end in a slanging match, with everyone becoming entrenched in their own opinions and determined not to give an inch. It will be exhausting! Soothing colours are caramel and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 5 and 26.
 
It's a great day to stand up for your rights. Fight your corner, because you're sure of yourself and feeling fearless. How far are you prepared to go? Do not convince yourself that the ends justify the means, to the extent that you give yourself permission to behave badly or to arouse the antagonism of others. Not a good idea! Ideal colours are ebony and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 4 and 29.
 
It's hard to keep track of your thoughts today and especially difficult when considering anything to do with money. If you have to face a nasty situation you'll do anything to avoid it, even to the point of kidding yourself that everything is okay when deep down you know it isn't. Be careful, too, when shopping in case there's a muddle about how much something costs or you lose a precious possession somewhere along the line. Take care! Beneficial colours are cinnamon and primrose. Lucky numbers are 8 and 42.
 
It's difficult to understand what somebody is talking about today because they don't seem to be making much sense. Or is it more that you're getting hold of the wrong end of the stick? Either way, you need to clarify exactly what's been said before acting on it, especially if it relates to something medical. You should also try to avoid believing only what you want to believe right now. Expressive colours are claret and beige. Lucky numbers are 30 and 44.
 
You've normally got your head screwed on the right way when it comes to anything financial but there's a lot of confusion and complication in the air today, making it difficult for you to work out what's going on. Maybe someone is deliberately pulling the wool over your eyes or perhaps you're refusing to look at the facts for some reason. But either way, don't make any important financial decisions at the moment in case you have second thoughts when it's too late. Ideal colours are violet and ginger. Lucky numbers are 35 and 78.
 
Take extra care today because you aren't thinking straight. You're distracted by an emotional or family matter or perhaps you're just in a world of your own. Whatever the reasons for your scattered thoughts, the fact is that this isn't a good day to reach decisions or make important commitments because you can't weigh up the pros and cons at the moment. Wait a few days before making up your mind. Ideal colours are russet and gold. Lucky numbers are 37 and 75.
 
Be very careful tackling anything that requires careful thinking or a logical approach today, because it's going to be difficult. Your mind simply isn't working along those lines right now, so don't float off into all sorts of tangents at the most inconvenient times. Avoid making any important decisions until this phase has passed. Fortunate colours are cinnamon and avocado. Lucky numbers are 31 and 46.
 
Someone isn't thinking clearly. They're confused and as a result everyone else may be as well!

And don't fall into the same trap yourself of being biased or getting your facts wrong! Fortunate colours are chocolate and cream. Lucky numbers are 13 and 49.
 
Be careful today, especially if you're supposed to be making an important decision or signing an agreement, because things aren't quite as straightforward as they seem.

Wait a few days until you're more aware of what's going on. Adventurous colours are navy and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 22 and 17.
 
There are lots of distractions today, making it hard to concentrate on anything for long. Your mind simply isn't working that way right now, so it will be a struggle to do anything complicated or detailed because your thoughts will keep going walkabout.

Lucky numbers are 9 and 72.
 
Keep well away from any sort of negotiation or discussion today because it's highly likely to create confusion.

Your mind is all over the place today, making it difficult to keep track of your thoughts. You struggle to remember things or concentrate on what you're doing.

Fortunate colours are aubergine and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 39 and 22.
 
Someone is telling fibs. It will be difficult to know who, but you'll get a clue when their story doesn't add up or it doesn't fit your knowledge of the facts. But before you accuse this person of being an out-and-out liar, bear in mind that they might have got confused or may be embroidering the story simply to make it sound better. Another option is that you've misinterpreted what you've been told and have got the wrong end of the stick. Beneficial colours are banana yellow and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 25 and 56.
 
Do your best to be honest and straightforward when talking to others today, otherwise you may accidentally mislead them or give them the wrong impression. This is especially important when talking to colleagues and customers, or when taking part in a medical consultation. It will be better to spell things out rather than to leave anything to chance. Beneficial colours are chocolate and ginger. Lucky numbers are 29 and 62.
 
If you need someone's support you've certainly got it. They're ready and willing to stand by you and help in any way you need. All you have to do is ask.

Lucky numbers are 29 and 53.
 
The best way to strengthen a relationship right now is to talk to one another. The Lunar Eclipse warns that it's no good making assumptions about what you need and want from each other, because you may be completely off-beam.

Opportune colours are emerald and navy. Lucky numbers are 21 and 10.
 
There's a Lunar Eclipse today and it will affect your relationships during the next few weeks.

If you're at work you'll create a harmonious and companionable atmosphere. Buy everyone a treat or simply be very friendly and helpful.

It's a Lunar Eclipse. Stable colours are auburn and blonde. Lucky numbers are 16 and 69.
 
Someone dear to your heart has some interesting information for you, Sagittarius. They'll tell you something that really sets you thinking or that even acts as a moral beacon for you.

Expressive colours are strawberry and silver. Lucky numbers are 40 and 56.
 
The Lunar Eclipse will have a big impact on your financial situation during the next few weeks, especially if you've been ignoring some unpleasant facts recently.

Look at the facts and see if you can improve them in some way. Practical colours are dark blue and sable. Lucky numbers are 29 and 1.

Fortunate colours are dark yellow and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 3 and 74.
 
You have the chance to build up a strong emotional rapport with someone special today, so don't miss it.

You might also reach a new understanding with a friend or your other half. It's a good day! Fortunate colours are amber and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 34 and 5.
 
Get set for a highly significant fortnight, Rams, courtesy of today's Lunar Eclipse. It's telling you to examine every aspect of your life and to make some constructive changes to it.

Beneficial colours are chocolate and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 8 and 67.
 
There's an emotional rapport between you and someone today and it does your heart good. Don't expect fulsome declarations of undying love under today's Lunar Eclipse, because you'll be disappointed.

Propitious colours are pastel yellow and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 37 and 15.
 
It's a very different story to yesterday, as now you're feeling accepting and easy-going. You're ready to take people as you find them, and you're doing your best not to judge them.

Beneficial colours are silver and coffee. Lucky numbers are 16 and 61.
 
It's one of those days when you long to be lazy and to do as little as possible. Is that feasible or have you got to fit your leisure time in around lots of duties and obligations?

It's a great day for getting on with domestic chores and making your home more comfy or secure as a result.

Favourable colours are sunshine yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 76.
 
Enjoy your social life today. It's exactly what you're in the mood for, especially if you can get together with some of your favourite people.

Someone who's older or more experienced than you may need your help or compassion at some point, so stand by. Diplomatic colours are salmon and russet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
You're keen to get on well with the people around you today, so you'll do almost anything to avoid a row or a tricky atmosphere. Take everyone as you find them, warts and all. However, don't let this magnanimous mood send the message to a certain someone that he or she can get away with really bad behaviour, because that will be setting a nasty precedent. Harmonious colours are purple and mixed hues. Lucky numbers are 10 and 23.
 
If you're still feeling worried, it will help to discuss your thoughts with someone who can empathize and listen to you. You'll feel better for having poured out your heart, as this will help you marshal your thoughts and get them into perspective. You will establish a stronger rapport with this person as a result, which is a bonus. Harmonious colours are taupe and hazel. Lucky numbers are 9 and 1.
 
You're interested in facts and figures today, Leo. You bury yourself in the Sunday papers and won't emerge until you're covered with ink and your head is brimming with information, or you could do some serious surfing on the net in the interests of research. If you're planning a journey or holiday, this is a good day for checking that you haven't overlooked any important factors. Beneficial colours are spring green and lilac. Lucky numbers are 10 and 50.
 
You're keen to get on well with whoever happens to be around today, and you'll be very successful at it.

Life becomes more peaceful today, which is a great relief after the difficulties of the past couple of days.

After yesterday's unpleasant experiences you're in the mood for some love and affection. Cuddle up with someone special or get together with a group of close friends, and feel the emotional scars start to melt away. You'll much prefer to be with people you know inside out now than to meet strangers, and you may even decide to stay at home rather than to venture into uncharted territory. Expressive colours are copper and navy. Lucky numbers are 40 and 71.
 
You're feeling much more bullish and resilient today, which is just as well after yesterday's wretched mood.

This is just the day for fixing things that have gone wrong or are broken, and you can do so either literally or metaphorically.

Harmonious colours are peach and ivy green. Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
 
Worries are never far away from the Bull today. An anxious and fretful state of mind brings a tendency to look on the black side in any situation.

Ideal colours are chocolate and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 36 and 10.
 
What's worrying you, lovely Gemini? Don't give way to anxiety, or it will be hard to shake off the despondency.

Remind yourself that worrying never solved anything; you need to take action. Auspicious colours are snow white and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 35 and 6.
 
This is an excellent day for tying up any loose ends that you've left dangling recently, especially where your work or long-term goals are concerned.

Revealing colours are khaki and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 1 and 28.
 
Someone's in a highly critical mood today, making it hard to be around them for long because they're so keen on pointing out everyone's faults.

If so, what good will it do to be so harsh? Favourable colours are mother of pearl and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 19 and 20.
 
You're heavily influenced by what you hear or read, Aries, but unfortunately it's likely to plunge you into the depths of despair.

It's a downbeat day and it isn't helped if you're worried about something.

Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
Someone's being a hard taskmaster today, making you feel inadequate or as though you've let them down in some way. Are they being fair about this or are they simply having a field day criticizing you for no good reason? Alternatively, maybe you're being too hard on yourself, and have set yourself high standards that you can't possibly hope to meet. If so, you'll soon feel depressed and anxious, so give yourself a break. Energising colours are fuchsia and orange. Lucky numbers are 8 and 4.
 
This is a great day for making changes to your life, especially if you want to sort out a situation that's gone pear shaped recently or you're trying to clear up a misunderstanding. You're in a fix-it mood, whether that applies to gadgets that have gone wrong or a relationship that's hit the skids. But don't be so keen on making changes to suit yourself that you ignore other people's needs. That wouldn't be a smart move at all. Prosperous colours are ochre and violet. Lucky numbers are 39 and 15.
 
Worries are never far away today, and they're ready to strike regarding financial and emotional matters. You may receive a depressing bank statement or credit card bill in the post, or you realize you're less well off than you thought. Alternatively you might be concerned about a loved one's welfare.

You're looking for some emotional and sexual adventures today, and you certainly don't want to settle for anything too humdrum or predictable.

If you're at work today you might look at a colleague with new eyes when you suddenly realize how attractive they are. Why haven't you noticed them before? Is it because they aren't really your type?

Wonderful colours are champagne and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 26 and 33.
 
Love has a way of taking you by surprise today. Someone who you normally consider to be unattractive might suddenly appeal to you, showing a completely new side to their personality.

Ideal colours are bright red and silver. Lucky numbers are 23 and 33.
 
If you're feeling annoyed with a loved one, you'll want to try a little retail therapy to make yourself feel better. But go easy, otherwise you could be tempted to blow a lot more money than you can afford to part with.

It could come as a shock but today you're strongly attracted to someone who isn't your usual type at all. Nevertheless, they've really got to you. Well, what are you going to do about it?

Fortunate colours are moonlight blue and dark green. Lucky numbers are 19 and 15.

You're dissatisfied and restless, especially when it comes to your relationships. As a result, you may be looking at a certain person with a jaundiced eye, wishing they could be something they're not or wondering why the spark seems to have died between you. Things may not be as bad as they seem because your feelings are quite extreme today, so don't do anything rash. Beneficial colours are kiwifruit and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 16.
 
Even if you think you know what type of person you like and find attractive, life could take you by surprise today. As a result, you could be smitten by someone who isn't your usual type at all.

Only time will tell, but you'll have fun in the meantime. Romantic colours are chocolate and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
 
A loved one has a strong need to prove their independence today, and you have to let them do it. That might hurt, especially if they don't do it in a very tactful manner or you're very attached to them.

Fortunate colours are blonde and Red. Lucky numbers are 23 and 61.
 
Mind how you go if you're feeling bored or restless today, because you'll enjoy stirring up trouble and ruffling a few feathers.

Ideal colours are burnt orange and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 42.
 
There's no knowing where your heart will lead you today, so be prepared for some surprises. You could be attracted to someone who isn't your usual type at all, or who belongs to a different culture, religion or background to your own. In fact, the greater the number of differences between you, the greater the attraction between you. The question is whether it's just a flash in the pan. Strong colours are dark purple and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 29 and 14.
 
A loved one is a law unto themselves today, and there's nothing you can do about it. As a result, they're determined to go their own way and do their own thing, even if you strongly disapprove. Actually, the more po-faced and critical you become, the keener they'll be to carry on and shock you even more. So you should pretend you aren't impressed, or you'll be reacting in exactly the way they want. Advantageous colours are white and purple. Lucky numbers are 8 and 12.
 
You're open to all sorts of new ideas right now, and some of these will teach you a great deal about yourself and about the other people in your life.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 78.
 
Your mind is running along very inventive and clever lines today, and it's exciting to see what it will come up with next.

You're in a very clever and inventive frame of mind today, which is great if you want to do some trouble-shooting.

Positive colours are silver and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 36 and 56.
 
Would you describe yourself as open-minded? Well, you'll find out today when you're presented with ideas that are unusual, controversial or shocking.

Lucky numbers are 38 and 53.

This promises to be one of the most enjoyable days in October so make the most of it. You won't want to do anything very onerous or difficult, because you simply aren't in the right mood.

Charming colours are aqua and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
 
You're feeling lucky today and you're willing to take a few risks as a result. That's great, but don't be too foolhardy or reckless in case your luck doesn't stretch as far as you thought. This is a brilliant day for going off on your travels, so it's a fantastic day to start a holiday. If that isn't possible, either arrange a forthcoming trip or visit somewhere interesting. What you won't enjoy is being stuck in the same familiar place all day long. You need more excitement than that at the moment. Fortunate colours are mustard and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 1 and 25.
 
Your spirits are starting to rise again after yesterday's doom and gloom. Maybe you were overreacting and you've now realized that things aren't as bad as they seemed?

There could also be good news about a pay rise or a job-related perk, or a boss or supervisor might pat you on the back. Expressive colours are champagne and apricot. Lucky numbers are 14 and 78.
 
Have a think about your usual routine. Is it interesting and mentally stimulating? Or is it tedious and mind-numbing? If it's the latter, this is a good day for considering how you can liven things up. You may not be able to work miracles and totally change the structure of your day, but surely there are some things that could be improved. Fortunate colours are pineapple and peach. Lucky numbers are 23 and 12.

Someone's got too much on their plate and they're getting in a panic. Is it you? If so, you'll waste valuable time by fretting over all the things you've got to do, and it also won't help if you get in a state and then start losing vital pieces of paper because you're so distracted. Take a deep breath or get some fresh air, and then start with whatever is most urgent. Take it one step at a time. Indulgent colours are fudge and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 35 and 57.
 
A friend seems to have departed Planet Earth and floated off into mental outer space today, as they aren't making much sense at all.

Speaking of lies, be careful of anyone who is telling you what they think you want to hear, rather than telling you the truth. What's their motive? Favourable colours are persimmon and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 1 and 60.
 
Someone's in a nitpicking, cranky mood today and don't you know it! It's the sort of mood where they argue the toss over anything or find a way of twisting your words.

Or maybe you're the one who's behaving like a bear with a sore head, in which case you must sort out what's wrong and calm down. Vibrant colours are shimmering silver and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 31 and 21.

Try not to make a big deal out of it if it doesn't really matter. Auspicious colours are mauve and toffee. Lucky numbers are 11 and 58.
 
It's a day when, in true Piscean style, you long to escape from harsh reality in all its forms and disappear into a dreamlike existence instead. Fantasy has so much to offer you right now, so set aside some time for daydreaming. It might even spark off a creative idea if you really get inspired. But beware of confusing fact with fiction, or of pretending to yourself that something is not a problem when, deep down, you know that it is. Beneficial colours are fawn and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 33 and 49.
 
It's horribly easy to get bogged down in petty details and nit- picking squabbles today, especially if these turn into games in which you and a partner vie for supremacy and power. Stop it! It will be far better to get your grievances out into the open so you can deal with them than to operate a verbal version of Chinese water torture all day long. Opportune colours are indigo and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 64.
 
Someone's rather touchy today. Whatever you say is taken the wrong way, so you end up apologizing about things you didn't mean, or the person deliberately tries to pick an argument with you. Or maybe you're the one who's being so difficult? If so, perhaps you're angry over something that happened a long time ago but which still rankles. But what can you expect to do about it now? It's ancient history! Propitious colours are khaki and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 36 and 4.
 
You're in a very dreamy state, my lovely Libra, but it means you aren't able to evaluate people with any sort of discrimination. You can't help seeing the best in everyone right now, which is very nice of you but not much good if you're supposed to be working out whether someone is being straight with you or not. So enjoy today's romantic and idealistic mood but don't believe everything you think as a result of it. Favourable colours are coffee and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
Tempers are slightly frayed today, so watch out. A tight deadline or too many chores in too short a time will make you bad-tempered and scratchy. You'll give as good as you get if someone yells at you, but don't be the one who starts the arguments. Calm down by working off your nervous energy in more therapeutic and constructive ways. Calming colours are mandarin and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 32 and 26.
 
There's a constrained and restrained atmosphere between you and your partner today, which is very uncomfortable. It's making you feel lonely and as though the world is against you; the planets aren't. Try not to brood on how miserable you're feeling, but instead do something constructive to cheer yourself up. This is just a chilly phase between you and you-know-who, that will soon pass. Favourable colours are kiwifruit and navy. Lucky numbers are 2 and 27.
 
A certain person is being a right old wet blanket today. The trouble is that it might be you! Maybe you're feeling miserable about something, or you're worried about the way a relationship is going at the moment. Do your best not to tell yourself that things are worse than they really are. You're also feeling rather lonely, especially if you're apart from someone special, so distract yourself by doing things that you always enjoy. Soothing colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 22 and 66.
 
After yesterday's upbeat mood you're now down in the dumps. What are you worried about? Money may have something to do with it, especially if you're wondering how you're going to afford to pay for all the festivities in December or you're facing a big pile of bills. Fretting about it all isn't going to solve anything. Instead, you need to think up a constructive plan. Communicative colours are almond and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 42.
 
You need to take things gently today, preferably by doing as little work as possible. But will you be able to get away with it? If that isn't possible, do your best to relax in your spare time, perhaps by lazing in front of the television set or listening to some music. If you're currently working with someone who's either much older or much younger than you, you'll get on well with each other today. Revealing colours are brilliant white and hot pink. Lucky numbers are 13 and 71.
 
You're still having problems with people in a position of authority, but at least things aren't as difficult as they were yesterday. You may even be able to see the humour in the situation, perhaps because someone is being ridiculously pompous and full of themselves. Mind you, they may not like it if you openly laugh at them, so be tactful about it. Positive colours are blueberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 31 and 74.
 
You're game for a challenge or two today! In fact, you may even be the one who suggests it, in which case you'll do your best to make it a roaring success. However, try to avoid the temptation to go over the top or to do something that's actually dangerous! At some point you'll benefit from a change of scene because it will recharge your batteries. Fortunate colours are brass and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 31.
 
You're at your most easy-going best today, Gemini, and you'll try hard to meet others halfway. With luck, this conciliatory attitude will rub off on the people you're with, so all your encounters will be pleasant and relaxed. If you've got some spare time you'll enjoy visiting somewhere beautiful or spiritual, and which takes you away from your everyday concerns. Mellow colours are mandarin and brass. Lucky numbers are 19 and 56.
 
You're feeling much calmer today and less agitated. If you need to say sorry for what happened yesterday, you'll find the words to do so. You may even feel quite magnanimous if someone else was the culprit, and you'll be ready to forgive them. After all that is out of the way, enjoy yourself at home or with a special person, and feel your cares roll away. Beneficial colours are tan and jade. Lucky numbers are 3 and 28.
 
This is an ideal day for being with some of the people whose company you always enjoy, even if you can only snatch a few minutes with them. You'll also enjoy being with one very special person, in which case you'll have a wonderfully romantic time with them. Don't be shy about revealing your innermost feelings. Romantic colours are deep purple and old gold. Lucky numbers are 4 and 15.
 
You're full of energy and vitality today, so make the best of it. It's a wonderful day for taking a few chances or risks, although you shouldn't be too reckless or careless. After all, success is not guaranteed, even though you may feel invincible right now. Even so, venture out of your normal comfort zone into uncharted territory. Good luck! Opportune colours are crimson and white. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
 
You're in a much sunnier mood today, which is great if you now realize you went overboard yesterday and it's about time you apologised to a certain person. Be magnanimous if they upset you, and be humble if you annoyed them. Once all that's out of the way you'll be ready to have some fun, preferably by staying close to home and not doing very much. Fortunate colours are jade and almond. Lucky numbers are 37 and 10.
 
Spend time today with people you see on a regular basis, such as a neighbour or close relative. You'll have a relaxing, easy-going time with them, which will do you both good. If you've been trying to find the right words to say something to them recently, you might finally hit on a diplomatic way of opening the conversation. What a relief! Ideal colours are plum and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 39.
 
It's a great day for using up some of your abundant energy, especially if you feel like doing something enjoyable and you're taking someone along for the ride. How about going for a long walk at some point or dropping into the gym for a strenuous workout? You could also have a lively discussion with a neighbour or partner in which you have to defend your opinions. Mellow colours are silver and brown. Lucky numbers are 1 and 12.
 
You're brimming with confidence today and very sure of what you can achieve. That's great! But you may have to fit your work in around your social life because you're in a very gregarious mood and it would be a shame not to share it with others. You're also feeling pretty positive, and are sure that something important to you is going to have a good outcome. Vibrant colours are dark green and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 1 and 59.
 
Friends are great company now, so try to spend as much time with them as possible. They'll brighten up your day and give you something to smile about. If you can't see your fave pals today, do your best to arrange to get together with them soon, so you have something to look forward to. Why not make lots of other social plans as well, while you're about it? Fabulous colours are lemon and ebony. Lucky numbers are 34 and 2.
 
OK, so you're worried about what a loved one is spending their money on, or what you see as the bad choices they're making in their life. But does that give you the right to interfere in what they're doing and tell them where they're going wrong? You think it does, but the other person may not agree, so don't be surprised if they tell you in no uncertain terms to mind your own business. Mellow colours are mushroom and plum. Lucky numbers are 18 and 11.
 
It's a testing, awkward day. You're feeling fraught and as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders. You may also feel that you have to spend the entire day with your nose pressed firmly to the grindstone, either because that's the only way to get through your workload or because that will win you the respect of other people. But take care not to extract all the fun out of the day and to replace it with duty, obligation and depression. Fortunate colours are shimmering gold and dark red. Lucky numbers are 18 and 66.
 
There's tension in the air today and it's difficult to cope. There's a clash between a forthcoming social event and the money it will cost, or someone is upset about the amount of time you've been spending with a friend. Do your best to clear the air and sort things out without making them even more difficult than they are already. Fortunate colours are tangerine and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 9 and 34.
 
There's a lot of friction between you and a friend or lover today. You're getting on each other's nerves or there may be problems connected with someone's jealousy and desire to control the relationship. Try not to be the one who's being so heavy-handed because you won't gain anything by it and you might even be the loser. Nevertheless, it will be healthy for you both to say what you think, even if that does mean having a row. It's important to clear the air right now. Favourable colours are turquoise and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 15 and 45.
 
The closer you are to someone, the more likely you are to rub each other up the wrong way today. Maybe you both need to clear the air over recent problems, especially if that will stop you feeling angry about them. One of you may also be feeling rather possessive of the other one, so there could be a disagreement about the amount of time you spend together and the time you spend apart. Favourable colours are lavender and deep purple. Lucky numbers are 13 and 28.
 
Life is slightly fraught today. Someone is in an agitated and harassed state, so they're living on their nerves and making things rather difficult for everyone around them. If this describes your current state, try to sort it out without inflicting your bad mood on everyone else. If you're very busy at work, do your best and ask for help if necessary. There's only so much you can accomplish on your own. Ideal colours are grapefruit and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 9 and 2.
 
You feel as though you've got a lot on your plate and you're having to cope with it all by yourself. This may or may not be true, but it's making you feel tense and taken for granted. Rather than soldiering on by yourself, can you delegate some of your work or ask someone to give you a hand? You'll be especially grumpy if others are taking it easy while you're slogging your guts out. Inspirational colours are cocoa and beige. Lucky numbers are 15 and 23.
 
Life is slightly tense today, thanks to the difficult atmosphere between you and a loved one. Maybe they're really annoying you or taking you for granted, or perhaps you're stewing about an episode from your past that has suddenly started to bug you again. Whatever's wrong, do your best to talk about it rationally and to clear the air. But don't start the Third World War if that isn't necessary. Stabilising colours are honeycomb and violet. Lucky numbers are 2 and 38.
 
Be careful what you say today because someone might be easily offended. An off-the-cuff remark doesn't come out the way you intended, or you accidentally put your foot in it. Watch out, too, that you don't blurt out something that was meant to be a secret. It's one of those days when it's awfully hard to be tactful and when other people are huffy. Not a good combination! Fortunate colours are brass and copper. Lucky numbers are 11 and 67.
 
Put on your tin hat, Aries, because someone is on the warpath. This is likely to be a person who is older or more influential than you, such as a parent, relative or boss, which makes it difficult to answer back or say what you think. Try to be diplomatic, as it will make the difference between creating a lot of bad feeling and resolving the problem. Favourable colours are dark pink and cream. Lucky numbers are 22 and 11.
 
It's a tricky day, so take care. There's a strained atmosphere between you and loved ones, putting you on the defensive and making you tense. The results are inevitable - you'll end up having a row with someone. Maybe you need to do this, so you can clear the air and find out where you both stand. But don't drag in ancient grudges that have nothing to do with the current circumstances. Fortunate colours are butterscotch and dark green. Lucky numbers are 31 and 51.
 
You'll have to bite your lip to stop yourself blurting out things that would have been better left unsaid today. However, it's one of those days when it's almost impossible to censor yourself because you don't seem to have much control over what you say. No sooner has a thought popped into your brain than it's popped out of your mouth. So be prepared to do lots of apologizing if you accidentally upset or offend someone. Liberating colours are honey and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 6 and 26.
 
You're feeling very sociable and outgoing Capricorn, so it would be a shame to spend too much time by yourself. How about meeting up with some friends? Something else you'll enjoy is taking part in a group activity, such as being with people who are on the same wavelength as you or attending a day workshop in something that makes you think. Expressive colours are pastel pink and navy. Lucky numbers are 13 and 6.
 
You're feeling great! Even if you have problems to cope with at the moment you aren't so bothered about them today, and instead you're ready to enjoy yourself and let off some steam. Ideally, you should get together with people you like and always have a good time with, especially if you know them almost as well as you know yourself. You'll also enjoy taking off on a short journey or going out for the day. Great colours are mauve and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
You're in a great mood little Fishies and you want to do things that will make you feel good. So what do you have in mind? It will help to get any duties or obligations out of the way first, because they'll only weigh on your conscience otherwise. Besides, think how virtuous you'll feel when they're completed and you can call your time your own. Use it wisely! Exuberant colours are raspberry and saffron. Lucky numbers are 28 and 48.
 
If you need cheering up, make a beeline for someone who's always sunny-tempered and optimistic. They'll get you smiling again in no time at all, and may even inspire you in ways you weren't expecting. This is certainly a great day for being sociable, even if you don't feel like it at first. If you fancy a trip to the cinema, opt for a comedy film. Communicative colours are bright red and silver. Lucky numbers are 14 and 40.
 
This is a lovely day for chatting to all and sundry. Sociable and friendly, you'll enjoy putting other people at their ease. How about inviting one of the neighbours over for a drink or a meal, or arranging to meet a friend? Even if you bump into someone in the street you'll want to find out how they are and catch up on all the news. Enjoy every minute of it. Lively colours are hyacinth and emerald. Lucky numbers are 12 and 2.
 
You're feeling lucky today, and as a result everything will go well for you. This doesn't mean you should take risks or not do things that are important, because then your luck could vanish. But your positive attitude will rub off on other people, making conversations easy and attracting opportunities in your direction. Fortunate colours are caramel and pale green. Lucky numbers are 26 and 64.
 
You'll really enjoy getting out and about today, especially if you can visit lots of different places or talk to plenty of people. It's a day when you appreciate some mental and visual stimulation because they'll make you think. They'll also give you plenty to talk about, which will be good fun. Ideally, you should spend the day in different surroundings or take off on a short jaunt. Favourable colours are walnut and auburn. Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.
 
It will be really interesting to talk to someone who has a different background to yours, because you'll be fascinated by what they've got to say. This might be someone from another country or a totally foreign culture, but you'll be much more interested in your similarities than in your differences. You could also hear from a friend who lives abroad, much to your delight. Fortunate colours are burgundy and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 16 and 46.
 
Give yourself a break today, preferably by relaxing and not doing very much. You want to potter around at home or visit a favourite place, but you won't feel like doing anything very ambitious. If you're entertaining, you'll do your utmost to make sure that everyone has a good time and the food is as delicious as you can possibly make it. Beneficial colours are sage and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 23 and 15.
 
This is a great day for sorting through paperwork, throwing out items that you no longer need and generally being at your most efficient. It isn't the most exciting way to spend a Sunday but it will certainly be very satisfying when you look at everything you've achieved. You may also hear from a workmate who needs your advice. Advantageous colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 21 and 52.
 
This is a lovely day for being with friends and other like-minded souls. You're feeling very optimistic and cheerful, which means everyone will enjoy being around you because your good mood will rub off on them. If you don't have anything planned for the day, why not take off on a day trip or visit somewhere that you've never been before. You're in the mood for an adventure. Ideal colours are lavender and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 61.
 
It's been a great week for getting together with friends and it's not over yet because this is another day for being with kindred spirits. You'll feel really good when you're with them, and they'll cheer you up and make you laugh. If it's been ages since you heard from a friend who lives far away, get in touch with them now. Beneficial colours are ivory and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 35 and 3.
 
The coming two months will be a fabulous opportunity for you to think about your plans for the future. Consider all your hopes and dreams, and work out how far you have with them. Are they coming along nicely or do you never expect them to see the light of day? You'll also enjoy giving your brain some intellectual fodder, so don't shy away from topics and questions that make you ponder long and hard. Auspicious colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 13 and 25.
 
You'll discover that you have friends in high places between now and early November, so it's a great opportunity to mix with people who can help you to get ahead or who can give you some valuable advice. But don't butter them up purely for what you can get out of them because they'll soon get wise to that game. Instead, value them as people in their own right. Ideal colours are violet and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 23.
 
Your thoughts turn to your career and long-term plans today, and these are the area of your life that you need to focus on for the next two months. Maybe you're planning something big at the moment that will put you in the spotlight, in which case ideally you need to get it off the ground by the middle of November if you want to take full advantage of the planetary set-up. Auspicious colours are magenta and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 15 and 66.
 
You have a lot of interesting things to say today, so choose someone to talk to who will listen. Maybe you need to discuss your feelings or perhaps you're very excited about a future project and that's what's uppermost in your mind at the moment. It's a good day for making plans for the future, so look ahead and act accordingly. Revealing colours are tan and black. Lucky numbers are 21 and 42.
 
Between now and the middle of December you'll spend a lot of time thinking about yourself and the things that concern you at the moment. That's exactly the way it should be right now, but at times you'll have to wrest your thoughts away from personal considerations and focus on other people instead, otherwise you'll make yourself very unpopular. Ideal colours are crimson and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 6 and 11.
 
This is a fabulous day for being with someone you really care about. You're in a highly romantic frame of mind and you'll enjoy proving it in true Libran style. You're also feeling very compassionate and understanding towards loved ones, so you're prepared to forgive them their foibles and failings, just as you hope that they'll forgive you for yours. Romantic colours are burgundy and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 29 and 11.
 
During the next few weeks you'll take great pleasure in being with loved ones. They'll mean more to you than ever, and you might even want to arrange a big get-together for some of them. You're also starting to feel festive, so you might be inspired to begin your Christmas preparations early, especially if you know that November and December will be busy months for you. Most impressive! Beneficial colours are striped agate and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 2 and 7.
 
This is a wonderful day for being with people you care about. You're feeling very compassionate and kind and you want to create a good atmosphere between you and the people you love in your life. If there have been problems between you and a certain someone recently, this is the ideal day to sort them out. Be prepared to talk them through and to reach a compromise or renewed understanding of what happened. Revealing colours are cocoa and platinum. Lucky numbers are 26 and 55.
 
It's a day for taking care of chores and other duties, without making them a real drag. You'll take pleasure in getting household tasks out of the way, especially if you can persuade someone to give you a hand. If you're at work you'll want to create a relaxing, comfortable atmosphere with colleagues and customers, and they'll appreciate the efforts you make. Fortunate colours are smoky quartz and copper. Lucky numbers are 19 and 41.
 
Between now and early November you'll make a big effort to get on well with everyone in your life. You'll want to achieve compromise rather than conflict, even if this means bending over backwards to keep someone sweet or putting your own needs second. This is great, provided that you don't secretly feel resentful about it, or expect everyone to treat you in the same way. You should also avoid compromising on matters that require a firmer hand. Diplomatic colours are mulberry and yellow. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
 
The best way to understand your partner from today is to talk to them. Mind you, it's equally important to listen to what they have to say in response! So encourage your other half and your friends to talk to you, so you can get a better idea of what's going on with them at the moment. Try to solve problems by meeting one another halfway, rather than by one of you insisting that they get what they want so the other one has to make all the compromises. Empowering colours are amber and navy. Lucky numbers are 12 and 23.
 
It's time to start scrutinizing your financial affairs, so make sure they're operating as efficiently and productively as possible. Talk to an expert if you need advice or if you don't trust your own judgement, but make sure it's someone you trust. It's also a good time to carry out any form of research, because you'll enjoy digging deeper and deeper into a subject. Fortunate colours are ochre and primrose. Lucky numbers are 12 and 34.
 
A certain someone is being awfully predictable today. So much so in fact, that you have to grit your teeth in order to cope. Maybe the fault doesn't lie with them but with you, because right now you're in a restless state of mind and easily bored. You need some invigorating changes to keep you on your toes, but don't manufacture these by winding other people up. Fortunate colours are dark pink and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 38 and 60.
 
Get together with some of your friends today. Seek out people whose company you always enjoy and who will help you to relax. As it's a Friday, maybe you feel like hitting the town or perhaps you'd rather do some entertaining at home. You'll also get a great deal of pleasure from spending time on a favourite hobby. Ideal colours are aqua and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 35 and 27.
 
Someone is being rather provocative, making remarks that seem calculated to set people on edge or send fur flying, especially if these concern religion, politics or the law. Don't rise to the bait, but maintain your cool. It takes two to tango! Positive colours are red velvet and black satin. Lucky numbers are 17 and 71.
 
What you lacked in diplomacy yesterday you more than make up for today, because you're in a much more gentle and conciliatory mood. If you trod on someone's toes or bawled them out, have the grace to say sorry and to mean it. At some point you should cast an eye around your home to see if you can improve it in some way. You could come up with some great interior design ideas. Uplifting colours are mother of pearl and oyster. Lucky numbers are 2 and 45.
 
The more restrictive your routine is at the moment, the more you'll want to break free from it and do something much more exciting and interesting. But can you do that? Try to rearrange your schedule whenever possible or, if that isn't feasible, be creative about using your leisure time to get the maximum amount of fun out of it. Favourable colours are moonlight blue and cream. Lucky numbers are 21 and 34.
 
This is a much more easy going day, and it's fabulous for getting together with some of your favourite people. In fact, you aren't keen on doing anything very strenuous right now, unless it involves being sociable or romantic. If you've been waiting for the right moment to tell someone how much you care about them, that moment has now arrived. Good luck! Favourable colours are fawn and peach. Lucky numbers are 39 and 41.
 
Thank goodness life calms down today, so you can look forward to a much more serene and peaceful day than yesterday. It's great for kissing and making up, if that's what you want to do. It's also perfect for charming the socks off someone, because you're in such a diplomatic frame of mind right now. If you want to get into someone's good books, be nice to them now. Romantic colours are amethyst and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 6.
 
Thank goodness you're feeling much better today. Yesterday's miserable mood has vanished and you have a much sunnier disposition. This is a wonderful day for spending time with people you care about, especially if you're meeting for social reasons. One person in particular may need more attention from you than usual, or maybe you're the one who wants to be in the emotional spotlight. Advantageous colours are amethyst and ivory. Lucky numbers are 24 and 30.
 
Thank goodness there's a much more harmonious atmosphere today, after yesterday's outbursts. It's the perfect chance to say sorry and to kiss and make up, but it's also an opportunity to talk about what went wrong and why. Once that's over, you can enjoy one another's company at home or go out on the town, which is probably your preference right now. Beneficial colours are chocolate and silver. Lucky numbers are 28 and 34.
 
You could receive a nice compliment about your work or your abilities today, which will make you feel good. Even if you don't receive a pat on the back, you'll still feel happy and you'll want to spread harmony wherever you go. It's a particularly good day for getting together with people you respect and admire, or for visiting an elderly friend or relative who could do with cheering up. Beneficial colours are silver and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 14.
 
You need a break from your usual routine today, otherwise you'll become bored and restless. If happens, don't rock the boat in some way simply to keep yourself amused, as that won't be very helpful or constructive. Ideally, you should liven up your schedule before you start to feel as though you're climbing the walls. Healing colours are sienna and primrose. Lucky numbers are 12 and 8.
 
You don't like being told what to do at the moment, as you'll make more than plain. The trouble is, other people won't appreciate your stroppy mood, so you could be in for a fight. It will help if you're able to do things in your own time and at your own pace, rather than feeling someone is breathing down your neck. Still, you won't like it one bit if you're being heavily supervised. Harmonious colours are opal and platinum. Lucky numbers are 36 and 33.
 
Be careful when handing money today, because it has the potential to rub someone up the wrong way. Don't get into an argument with your partner about what to spend your shared money on. Has one of you already made that decision without informing the other one? If the fat's in the fire, try not to make the dispute more angry or aggressive than it needs to be. Beneficial colours are hazel and blue sapphire. Lucky numbers are 23 and 6.
 
Take it easy today. You don't have as much energy as usual and as a result everything is taking a lot of effort. It won't help if the weather is lousy or there's bad news, because that will deflate your energy still further. You should also try to keep away from anyone who has a nasty habit of making you feel bad or putting you on the defensive. You simply can't cope with them right now. Beneficial colours are golden sapphire and toffee. Lucky numbers are 31 and 11.
 
If you want a peaceful Thursday, avoid all mention of money and valuables because they're likely to set off a hornet's nest of argument and squabbles. It's hard to be rational and level-headed about all this, as every comment will strike you as a personal attack that makes your blood boil. Have a row if you must, but don't make it worse than necessary. Peaceful colours are aqua and lilac. Lucky numbers are 39 and 23.
 
It will be almost impossible to get through the day without losing your temper at some point. You're feeling very impatient and irascible, and it won't take much for others to wind you up. Try to deal with what's really wrong, rather than let yourself get worked up about all sorts of things that don't matter or which are distracting you from the central problem. Auspicious colours are peach and russet. Lucky numbers are 36 and 77.
 
You're very tempted to take the easy way out of any difficulties today because you simply can't find the stamina to face them. If you're at work, you'll want to shelve any tricky or complicated tasks until another day, or persuade someone else to do them for you. Make sure you don't ignore something that's urgent, because that will create an even worse mess for you to clear up. Uplifting colours are violet and aqua. Lucky numbers are 10 and 1.
 
A certain someone is being very impatient today, making it hard to be around them for long. They're also rather ratty, so could easily get annoyed with you for no good reason. Take care if you start to feel irritable as well, because you'll be tempted to take out your bad mood on loved ones, even if they're purely innocent bystanders. Fortunate colours are sunshine yellow and magenta. Lucky numbers are 3 and 53.
 
Someone is being impatient and rash today, and they won't like it if you try to slow them down or stand in their way. They might even lose their temper with you. Or are you the one who wants to chivvy everyone else along and who gets ratty when they fail to come up to scratch? Try not to take out your own frustrations on others when they don't deserve it. Expressive colours are opal and sienna. Lucky numbers are 7 and 62.
 
Your ambitions are fired up today, making you raring to go. You won't be happy if someone holds you back or you're interrupted and can't get on with the things you want to do. You will also lose your patience if you think someone is dragging their heels or not doing their bit to help you. However, yelling at them may not be the best solution to your problem. Try a little tact, Leo! Beneficial colours are primrose yellow and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 14 and 23.
 
Take it easy today because you're finding it hard to keep track of your thoughts.

You have some brilliant ideas swirling around inside your brain today and you need to pay attention to them. You're thinking big right now, which is exciting.

Steer clear of people who are stick-in-the-muds because you won't have any patience with them at all, and try to mix with people who are unique or different in some way. Beneficial colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 19 and 48.
 
Your imagination is your best friend today, provided that you don't let it get out of control. It's a fantastic day for doing some day dreaming because it will be very inspirational, filling your mind with all sorts of wonderful ideas. However, you need to know where your imagination stops and reality begins, especially if you're dealing with worldly concerns. Favourable colours are charcoal and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 19 and 20.
 
Your imagination knows no bounds today, so give it some exercise. You might enjoy writing something creative or inspired, whether it's your diary or you intend to get it published, or you might prefer to put brush to canvas. It doesn't matter what you decide to do as long as you do something. You may need to keep a pinch of salt handy when talking to a loved one who seems to have lost sight of the facts. Favourable colours are ochre and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 2 and 51.
 
Be warned, this isn't the right day for concentrating on details or very precise facts and figures. Your brain simply isn't working that way right now, and you'll probably find that your mind has wandered and you're thinking about something totally different. However, you'll excel at staring into space and letting your imagination go to work, because you'll come up with some fantastic ideas that way. Beneficial colours are blackberry and dark red. Lucky numbers are 9 and 51.
 
The plight of a certain someone arouses your compassion today, making you want to help them in any way you can. One of the most valuable ways you can do this is to listen to their tale of woe with an open mind, and without trying to give them unsolicited advice or believing that you know where they're going wrong. Alternatively, if you're the one who needs a shoulder to cry on you'll value having someone to confide in. Ideal colours are fawn and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 13 and 53.
 
Although you normally have a mind like a steel trap, it isn't working that way today. Instead, you're in a very imaginative state and it will be difficult to concentrate on anything for long without your brain wandering off into goodness knows what highways and byways. So try to postpone anything complicated or important until you're more in the mood for it, and concentrate instead on dreaming up new ideas and concepts. Creative colours are copper and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 30 and 40.
 
You're full of intuition and empathy today, helping you to tune into the people around you and do your best to understand them. Follow your gut instincts where appropriate because they could turn out to be a lot more accurate than you might imagine. You should also pay attention to the dreams you're having at the moment as they're sending you some important messages. Healing colours are plum and oyster. Lucky numbers are 25 and 75.
 
Your intuition stands you in good stead today because it will help you to understand concepts and theories that might otherwise go over your head. You're particularly interested in ideas with a spiritual, religious or mystical slant, and you'll want to spend as much time on these as possible. You might even revise a core belief in light of what you discover today. Empowering colours are topaz and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 40 and 52.
 
In true Virgo style, you're very interested in health matters today. You might even be tempted to book a complementary therapy or treatment if you're feeling slightly jaded or you're curious to know what it's all about. If you're going to the doctor or dentist, make sure you understand what you're being told rather than just hope for the best. Sunny colours are navy and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 34 and 8.
 
Use your imagination Cancer, especially when thinking about your finances and about your family. Maybe you need to put yourself in a loved one's shoes to fully understand what they're going through at the moment, or perhaps you have to come up with some inventive ways of boosting your income. Fortunate colours are lemon and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 21.
 
Act on your hunches today because they'll steer you in the right direction. You might get a strong urge to ring someone you haven't spoken to in a while, only to discover that they've been thinking about you or they've got some important information for you. Your imagination is working well, too, so give it plenty of scope. Ideal colours are aubergine and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 38 and 16.
 
Listen to your gut instinct, especially where friends and partners are concerned. For instance, you might suddenly get the feeling that you should ring someone, and then when you call, you discover that they need to talk to you. If you meet someone for the first time, pay attention to your first impressions, because they will be surprisingly accurate. Fortunate colours are coffee and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 58.
 
Your mind is floating all over the place today and it's a lovely feeling. You won't be able to concentrate on anything very detailed for long, so try to postpone anything important for a couple of days until you're more in the mood for it. But you'll excel at anything that's creative, imaginative and sensitive today, particularly if you're talking to someone you care about. Happy colours are turquoise and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 16 and 7.
 
Taureans are renowned for their charm and you're a shining example of that today. Any sort of social event will go swimmingly, because you'll hit it off with everyone you meet.

Fortunate colours are silvery pink and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 33.
 
It's the perfect day for your social life, so throw yourself into it whenever you get the chance.

If you're thinking of throwing a party, the prospect will be even more tempting now, so how about an invitation list? Auspicious colours are ivory and jade. Lucky numbers are 28 and 43.
 
Get to grips with your workload today. You'll get lots of chores out of the way, even if they aren't very exciting, because you want the satisfaction of knowing you've done the job properly.

Lucky numbers are 20 and 70.
 
Enjoy your social life by getting together with some good friends and having fun. You'll really enjoy going out on the town, whether you're having a swift drink or making a night of it.

Enjoyment comes very high on your list of the day's priorities, and you won't really want to settle for anything less. If you don't have any social plans, try to arrange something at the last minute because it's exactly what you're in the mood for. A loved one makes your day, perhaps when they tell you something that makes you feel all warm inside. Fortunate colours are pale gold and plum. Lucky numbers are 29 and 36.
 
Your relationships are very enjoyable today, because it's easy to get on well with other people. And you won't care if you're with people who come from a different background to you or whose skin is another colour, because such things won't matter to you. Instead, you're only concerned with whether you like someone and whether you're on the same wavelength. Nothing else is important at the moment. Fabulous colours are obsidian and amber. Lucky numbers are 38 and 11.
 
Home is where your heart is today, so surround yourself with comfortable and comforting objects and people whenever you get the chance.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
 
It's a day for enjoying your own company whenever you get the chance. It's not that you're feeling antisocial so much as that you simply need some time to yourself, so you can think things through at your own pace. If you're busy at work you'll definitely appreciate being left alone so you can have some peace and quiet. You won't welcome many distractions right now. Favourable colours are chocolate and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 69.
 
You're spending a lot of time thinking about your values at the moment, and this is another day when they're uppermost in your mind.

Or perhaps you're wondering how to make your money stretch further, like a piece of elastic. Beneficial colours are smoky quartz and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 30 and 56.
 
Enjoy your social life today, especially if it involves mixing with people you see on a regular basis.

If you have some spare time now you'll enjoy relaxing with a good book or the latest edition of your favourite magazine. Dynamic colours are purple and gold. Lucky numbers are 30 and 74.
 
Make the most of your social life by getting together with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you.

Lucky numbers are 10 and 41.
 
It's another day when you're feeling cheerful and it's easy to get on well with the other people in your life. You'll enjoy a special rapport with older friends and relatives, as well as intimate partners or people with whom you share money or other resources. It's a good opportunity to talk about any potentially difficult topics, because they're less likely to cause ructions at the moment. Fortunate colours are amber and treacle. Lucky numbers are 12 and 23.
 
Watch your spending today! Money could easily slip through your fingers without you really noticing it, purely because you're having such a good time while you're out shopping. If you take a friend along with you for company, they'll encourage you to splurge. You may also find that you've raided the joint account, if you have one, which might not make you very popular. Practical colours are marmalade and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 63.
 
You're in the mood to spend money today, so be warned. You could easily part with more than you intended because you get carried away, especially if you're buying items for your home or your stomach. For instance, a quick trip round the supermarket for a loaf of bread and a pint of milk could turn into a mammoth hunt for all sorts of edible treats followed by shock at the check-out when you hear how big the bill is. Not good! Favourable colours are pale pink and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 8 and 57.
 
Money slips through your fingers with no trouble at all today, so be careful if you're supposed to be on an economy drive because you won't want to restrain yourself once you've spotted something you like.

Lucky numbers are 27 and 18.
 
There's a lot you want to accomplish today and you're going to carry on until you've ticked off everything on your list - or until you collapse from exhaustion! You'll manage to do most things quicker than usual as well, which will be a nice bonus. Don't be tempted to cut corners to speed up the chores, because that could mean you don't do them properly first time around and have to redo them at a later date. And that really will be annoying. Active colours are gold and orange. Lucky numbers are 15 and 9.
 
It's a great day for enjoying yourself and doing things that make you feel good, but you'll have to fit them in around your work and other responsibilities. There should be some good news if you're applying for promotion or a new job, and you may even find that you have friends in high places. Expansive colours are aubergine and silver. Lucky numbers are 1 and 55.
 
Get set for a really enjoyable and happy day. You're feeling great and as a result things are going well.

Your current good mood will be very infectious, so you'll be popular and everyone will love having you around. Fabulous colours are blueberry and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 13.
 
You're in a very generous mood today, and you're keen to share your benevolence with whoever happens to be around. You might do this by buying someone a treat if you can afford it, or by being affectionate and chummy. But take care if you're spending money because it will be awfully tempting to part with more of it than you can really afford. Empowering colours are aubergine and teal. Lucky numbers are 11 and 10.
 
Someone is being very generous and kind, but after a while you'll be fed up with them.

Yesterday you wanted to be with other people but today you're much happier when you're left to your own devices.

Don't worry, you'll do it brilliantly. Soothing colours are raspberry and peach. Lucky numbers are 11 and 62.
 
You'll enjoy keeping busy today, which is just as well as you probably won't have much choice in the matter! It's one of those days when you're juggling with several different claims on your time but managing to cope. In fact, you're full of adrenalin and energy, but these will soon turn sour if you spend too long in one place or doing only one thing. You need plenty of variety. Auspicious colours are walnut and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 2 and 33.
 
It's a good day for getting on well with other people, especially if you have to work with them or you're part of the same team.

If you're currently thinking about arranging a long-distance trip, take your plans one step further today. Auspicious colours are dark green and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 5.
 
Hold back when you go shopping today because you're feeling extravagant and self-indulgent. As a result, you'll want to splash out on all sorts of items that you can't really afford or don't actually need.

Lucky numbers are 25 and 25.
 
It may be Monday but you're feeling in a really good mood. It's a great day for doing something enjoyable, such as buying yourself a treat at lunchtime or arranging to meet one of your favourite people after work. You're feeling very romantic today, so why not indulge yourself with you-know-who or curl up with some chocolates and a favourite film. Romantic colours are dazzling gold and bright red. Lucky numbers are 32 and 11.
 
If you think you went too far yesterday, make amends and apologize as soon as possible. Your current charm will stand you in good stead and help to smooth any ruffled feathers. If you want to make progress in your career or your public reputation, get in touch with people who have power and influence and may be able to help you in some way. They might even pull some strings for you. Favourable colours are lilac and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 39 and 22.
 
A certain someone makes your world go round today. They're being friendly, sweet and affectionate, and you love them for it. It would be a shame to spend too much time by yourself now because you're in such a convivial mood and you'll love being sociable. If you'd like to get to know someone better, this is a brilliant day to break the ice and invite them out for a drink or a meal. They'll probably be delighted. Fortunate colours are grapefruit and cocoa. Lucky numbers are 20 and 8.
 
It's easy to hit it off with whoever you come into contact with today. You're being charming and friendly, and everyone will respond accordingly.

It's also a great day for being with that special person in your life. Charming colours are dark blue and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 31 and 20.
 
You're in a very friendly and easy-going mood, and you're also feeling affectionate.

Lucky numbers are 38 and 35.
 
Surround yourself with some of the special people in your life today. Or maybe there's only one person you're really interested in?

It's good news if you're at work because you'll do your best to get on well with everyone around you. If someone new has joined the team, why not break the ice by chatting to them or suggesting you go out for lunch together. And if there has been a rift with a workmate recently, this is a good day for putting matters to rights and trying to patch up your quarrel. Beneficial colours are light tan and primrose. Lucky numbers are 19 and 45.
 
It's easy to express your emotions today, and you'll want to show the people around you how much you care about them. You might do this by giving them big hugs and kisses, or you may choose to be more discreet while still letting them know how you feel. It's an especially good day for getting on well with women, whether you're a man or a woman. Indulgent colours are caramel and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 25 and 20.
 
If you have some spare cash you'll enjoy spending it on yourself or your loved ones. You don't have to go overboard and fork out more than you can afford; even buying some edible treats, such as a packet of chocolate biscuits, will do the trick. Of course, if you're feeling flush, you'll get a real kick out of being generous to some of the special people in your life. Strong colours are charcoal and dark red. Lucky numbers are 36 and 61.
 
Friends make your world go round today, even if the only contact you have with them is on the phone or by email. They'll help to cheer you up and keep you smiling, and they'll also give you some emotional support if they think you need it. If you can't see them today, why not arrange to get together later in the week? Stabilising colours are pineapple and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 27 and 18.
 
Life is a lot less fraught and tense today, which will come as a great relief if you've been going through the mill during the past few days.

If you trod on someone's toes yesterday and upset them, this is a perfect day for saying sorry.

Lucky numbers are 31 and 74.
 
Someone is being very domineering and bossy today, which you won't like one little bit.

Make sure that you don't behave in the same way, especially if you have the upper hand with someone. Favourable colours are teal blue and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 29 and 6.
 
Make the most of your brain today because it's working really well.

Lucky numbers are 30 and 32.
 
There's a lot of tension in the air today, and the better you know someone the more likely they are to wind you up. And vice versa! The result is bound to be raised voices sooner or later, which will at least give you the chance to get certain things off your chest. But don't lug in all sorts of other grievances as well. Stick to the facts and don't overstate them. Expressive colours are passionfruit and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 30 and 25.
 
Someone's in a jealous mood today and being very difficult as a result. They may be reluctant to let you out of their sight or they might find fault with anything that they think of as a threat. On the other hand, maybe you're the one who's been bitten by the green-eyed monster, in which case you should remember to control your actions and stop yourself overreacting. Receptive colours are teal and purple. Lucky numbers are 8 and 15.
 
There's tension between you and loved ones today, making it a rather trying experience for all concerned. You know how it is - one of you loses your temper which sparks off the other one, and before you know it you're in for a day of squabbles and nit-picking. Do your best to calm down and save the situation, unless you truly enjoy yelling your head off. Soothing colours are cream and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 31.
 
This is a brilliant day for doing some serious thinking. You'll enjoy giving your brain a good workout, especially if you're considering something that stretches you intellectually or makes you view all sides of the argument.

Revealing colours are amber and dark green. Lucky numbers are 8 and 53.
 
You're at your most sensible and practical today, so don't let this methodical frame of mind go to waste.

If you want to examine your finances, do it now while you're in such a logical and efficient state. Auspicious colours are vermilion and purple. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
Are you ready to do some serious thinking today? You'll be at your best if you can be left alone to mull things over in peace, rather than to have people breathing down your neck or chivvying you along.

Ideal colours are champagne and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 57.
 
This is a fabulous day for putting your thoughts into words, because you'll be able to do so with precision and care.

This is a great day for learning something new, whether you absorb the information from a book or by talking to someone.

Lucky numbers are 9 and 12.
 
If you've been hoping to keep something a secret, don't be surprised if it becomes common knowledge today.

Lucky numbers are 6 and 17.
 
You have a great eye for detail today, and you'll soon pick up any flaws or problems in what you're studying.

You're easily swayed by the people around you today, Archers, so don't let anyone take advantage of your undiscriminating mood.

Lucky numbers are 32 and 23.
 
Be careful if you're spending money today because you could be persuaded to part with more of it than is strictly necessary. For instance, if you're in a shop you might misread the label on something and only realize how much it costs when it's too late to do anything about it without covering yourself in embarrassment. You should also avoid anyone who is obviously more interested in your bank balance than in you as a person. Beneficial colours are obsidian and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
As far as you're concerned, a certain someone is almost superhuman at the moment and can do no wrong. It's fine to put this person on a pedestal, provided you don't let them stay there for too long.

Fabulous colours are aquamarine and claret. Lucky numbers are 22 and 57.
 
Hold on to your heartstrings today. You're in a very emotional and vulnerable mood, which means someone could take advantage of you without you realizing it. For instance, they might give you a hard-luck story that's actually a tissue of lies but which you believe because you have such a big heart. Be very wary of parting with your cash today because you won't be very discriminating about it. Vibrant colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 45.
 
Someone is being awfully unrealistic today. They're taking a very rosy view of a tricky situation, so you wonder whether you ought to let them carry on fooling themselves or whether you should burst their protective bubble. Well, it's no good doing the latter today because you'll hate yourself for trying and they won't believe you anyway. See how you feel about it in a few days, because the problem may have resolved itself by then. Propitious colours are copper and platinum. Lucky numbers are 25 and 15.
 
You're in a very forgiving and charitable mood today, which is good news if someone has upset you because you're willing to give them another chance.

Be careful when spending money, too, because you'll turn a blind eye to how much everything costs. Revealing colours are passionfruit and navy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 35.
 
You're in a very sentimental and emotional mood, so don't be surprised if your feelings are much nearer the surface than usual.

If you're thinking about the past, it will seem almost too good to be true. Look back with nostalgia, Scorpio, but don't kid yourself. Expressive colours are coffee and peach. Lucky numbers are 22 and 58.
 
You're such a soft hearted Leo today that you should be very careful not to let anyone take advantage of your good nature. But that will be difficult because you may not even realize what a soft touch you're being. You have a very idealistic view of loved ones right now, making you blind to their faults. That's OK, as long as you wake up to reality within the next few days. Indulgent colours are marmalade and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 35 and 62.
 
You're usually very canny and shrewd, but these qualities are nowhere to be seen today. Instead, you're in a rather wistful and sentimental mood, and you aren't showing any signs of your usual critical faculties. As a result, you're ready to take people at face value, which may or may not be a good thing. Try not to let anyone run rings around you, Virgo. Fortunate colours are khaki and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 33 and 41.
 
You need to keep your wits about you, especially if someone tries to appeal to your better nature. You aren't naturally suspicious, but you need to be today! What does this person want? Are they trying to use charm to get their own way or even to steal the march on you somehow? Be wary if money is involved, because you could end up being the loser. Communicative colours are dark gold and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 9 and 69.
 
You can't help putting someone on a lofty pedestal today. You think the world of them and you won't hear a word against them. There's no harm done if this is only a temporary phase, but it's another story if you continue to think this person can do no wrong. If you have them confused with a saint, it's bound to lead to disappointment sooner or later. Ideal colours are ochre and navy. Lucky numbers are 23 and 61.
 
A loved one wants to break loose and there isn't much you can do about it. In fact, they need to be a free spirit today because otherwise they'll feel tethered and suffocated, and that will make them even more contrary and wilful. Don't be surprised if your domestic arrangements decline to go according to plan, and be prepared for all eventualities. Adventurous colours are nutmeg and amber. Lucky numbers are 10 and 18.
 
You're in need of some lively and interesting companions today, otherwise you'll quickly get bored and fed up. Ideally, you want to be with people who are unconventional in some way, even if they usually aren't your cup of tea at all, because you'll relish their slightly rebellious or unusual view of the world. If a close relationship is getting stuck in a rut, think about how you can both liven it up. Beneficial colours are dark red and lilac. Lucky numbers are 6 and 18.
 
You're full of curiosity about the world today, putting you in a very inquisitive mood. It's great for finding out what's going on around you or for getting lost in a good book. If you're doing some research you'll be fascinated by what you discover and you'll want to know more.

Lucky numbers are 16 and 56.
 
Your willpower has dwindled to almost nothing today, and all you want to do is to relax and take life easy.

If you can't talk to them face to face, give them a ring, write them a letter or get in touch by email. Uplifting colours are oyster and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 9 and 48.
 
The next couple of weeks will see in you a very inquisitive frame of mind and eager to increase your store of knowledge in some way.

Someone is being very expansive and gregarious today. It means they're great company to have around because they're so entertaining.

You need a quiet, relaxing day today. You're feeling worn out after everything that happened last week and you need to pace yourself and coast along so you can get your breath back.

A certain person has rather a high opinion of themselves today, which you may find amusing at first but which will eventually start to irritate you.

It's a particularly good day for showing off your talents at work or in a financial matter. Prosperous colours are aquamarine and cream. Lucky numbers are 12 and 54.
 
Close relationships are rather tense today, with people behaving as though they own you. The trouble is that you're likely to be the same way with them, even if you don't realize it. There could also be ructions over a partner's social life, perhaps with you objecting to the amount of time they spend with their friends because you think they should be with you instead. Empowering colours are sky blue and sapphire green. Lucky numbers are 13 and 75.
 
The atmosphere between you and a loved one is tense to say the least today, and it's difficult to make it any different. It could be as a direct result of what happened yesterday, or perhaps that's all been sorted out and you've now got to deal with someone else who's being a pain. Do your best not to make the situation worse than it already is by giving anyone the silent treatment or making heavy weather of the whole thing. Beneficial colours are lilac and apricot. Lucky numbers are 7 and 21.
 
It's another day when feelings run high and it seems that people are working against you. Try not to overcompensate by coming on too strong or by being bombastic in order to get your point across. There could also be a tense atmosphere between you and a superior or older relative, in which case you'll feel unable to tell them what you really think about their current behaviour. Strong colours are hyacinth and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 3 and 8.
 
Feelings run high today, making everything seem much more important than it really is. Try not to let this hot-house atmosphere get to you, because if it does you'll stop being reasonable and will start to feel out of control. Do your best not to brood about things you can't change, particularly if they belong in the past and there's nothing you can do about them now anyway. Auspicious colours are dark red and navy. Lucky numbers are 31 and 23.
 
You're fairly outspoken today, but you'll manage to stop short of being rude or outrageous. It's a great day for taking part in a discussion or debate, because you'll happily put forward your ideas, but will also be keen to listen to what other people have to say. If you're working today, you'll enjoy some sort of competition with your colleagues. Harmonious colours are aqua and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 22 and 48.
 
There are no flies on you today, Capricorn, as anyone who tries to engage you in a discussion will soon discover. Your thinking is very sharp and you aren't going to let anyone run intellectual rings around you. It's great for defending your views and opinions, because you can do so without sounding too strident or full of yourself. Delightful colours are pineapple and indigo. Lucky numbers are 15 and 21.
 
It's very important to keep an open mind today, otherwise you'll get caught up in preconceived ideas and you won't want to budge from them. Some sort of dispute could arise as a result of your fixed opinions, so watch out. Alternatively, you'll encounter someone else who's convinced that they're the one who's right and that you don't know what you're talking about. Right now, any sort of discussion is a waste of breath because they won't budge. Opportune colours are blueberry and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 21 and 14.
 
You're full of snappy and clever ideas today, and you won't be shy about sharing them with whoever happens to be around. If you're taking part in a discussion or conversation you'll put your point across quite forcefully, yet without being too adamant or aggressive. It's certainly an excellent day for sticking up for yourself without going over the top. Ideal colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 21 and 19.
 
You have a very clever way with words, Taurus so you're able to say exactly what you mean today. This is very handy if you need to express your opinion or take part in a debate, because everyone will understand what you're talking about. If you've been trying to pluck up the courage to ask someone out but your nerve keeps failing, have another go now while you're feeling so brave. Expansive colours are magenta and opal. Lucky numbers are 8 and 35.
 
Watch out because you're showing distinct signs of being nosy and interfering today, even if you aren't aware of it. For instance, you might decide that you know the best course of action for a loved one and then insist that they follow it, even though they aren't very keen on the idea. Or you could get involved in things that are none of your business, purely because you're concerned about someone's welfare. You need to back off, Virgo! Insightful colours are lime and ivory. Lucky numbers are 2 and 1.
 
You're very quick-witted today, Aquarius. No one can get the better of you. It's an ideal day for discussions and negotiations, because you're thinking in such a sharp and disciplined manner. You'll enjoy standing up for yourself in a debate and defending your ideas. If you need to have a quiet word in a loved one's ear about something, it's a good day to for that, too. Advantageous colours are mandarin and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 16 and 8.
 
Is it your imagination, or is someone being extremely nosy? They may be asking you questions that are none of their business, or you might catch them looking at something of yours that doesn't concern them. Should you make a big fuss about it or ignore it? If you do decide to say something, don't make mountains out of molehills. Beneficial colours are ivory and caramel. Lucky numbers are 15 and 14.
 
If you have some ideas to put forward, be prepared for someone who puts up lots of opposition to them. Maybe they feel threatened by what you're suggesting or they think their ideas are better, but they certainly won't be very pleased. That doesn't mean you should abandon your schemes, but you may have to proceed with them at a more leisurely or less aggressive pace. Insightful colours are saffron and olive. Lucky numbers are 18 and 1.
 
Let's hope you were able to enjoy some peace and quiet yesterday, because it looks as though you're once again battling it out with certain people. You might be facing a barrage of questions, or having to fight your corner. It's an upsetting situation, but do your best to remain calm. Avoid resorting to manipulative or underhand tactics. Other people may do so, but you don't have to follow suit. Auspicious colours are dark pink and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 11 and 26.
 
You're in the mood for some hard mental work today. You'll enjoy giving your brain a good workout, whether you do that by concentrating on something that's complex and involved, or simply relaxing with a puzzle or crossword. It's certainly a good day for getting to grips with your finances, so it's perfect for doing your accounts or working out the budget for a forthcoming project that has yet to get off the ground. Favourable colours are grapefruit and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 24.
 
The problems that got to you on Wednesday rear their ugly heads again today, making you feel irritated and fretful. Maybe you need to confront the person who's causing you so much grief, or get to grips with your own thoughts and emotions if they're the real cause of the turmoil. Be careful when dealing with friends and don't interfere in matters that are none of your business. Auspicious colours are mustard yellow and pale grey. Lucky numbers are 17 and 7.
 
You enjoy playing detective today, which means getting to the bottom of any mysteries or puzzles that are currently occupying your thoughts. That's fine, but make sure you stop before you start sticking your nose into things that are none of your concern. You might also get completely obsessed about a loved one and be unable to think of anything or anyone else. Favourable colours are brass and violet. Lucky numbers are 46 and 5.
 
You're keen to get on well with everyone you meet today, whether you know them or they're complete strangers. It's a particularly good day for hitting it off with colleagues and customers, and for making them feel comfortable and appreciated. If you're toying with the idea of applying for a new job, fill in that application form today. Ideal colours are silvery grey and jet black. Lucky numbers are 13 and 70.
 
You're lost in a world of your own today and you want to stay that way for the time being. This isn't a day for doing anything very complicated or serious, because your mind won't be able to stay focused for long enough and will keep drifting off in different directions. You'll excel at anything that requires imagination, sensitivity and contemplation. Receptive colours are mushroom and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 32 and 30.
 
There's good news about your career and reputation today. You might receive a small bonus or pay rise, or someone might pay you the sort of compliment that's in danger of making your head swell to twice its normal size. If you're out shopping, enjoy buying things that will increase your confidence, or items you need for your job. Great colours are parchment and hazel. Lucky numbers are 19 and 71.
 
Think about how you can improve your home today. Maybe you only need to do some tidying up, or perhaps you're inspired to look around the shops for items that will make the place look more cosy or contemporary. Fire your imagination by looking through interior design magazines or watching a home transformation programme on television. Favourable colours are sapphire blue and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 61 and 55.
 
Do something light-hearted and enjoyable at some point today, otherwise you'll feel as though you're missing out on something important. Maybe you should get together with some friends, or have a chat with a chum on the phone. If you're taking part in a group activity you'll attract plenty of attention, and for all the right reasons. Fun colours are peacock blue and lemon. Lucky numbers are 22 and 44.
 
It's another combative day but feelings are more exposed and obvious today. At least that means you stand a good chance of clearing the air by having a row or a frank exchange of views. If you're at home you'll be easily irritated by loved ones, but try not to take out your own frustrations on people who are merely innocent bystanders. Leave them alone! Soothing colours are silvery blue and avocado. Lucky numbers are 16 and 78.
 
You need some light relief after all the frustrations and irritations of yesterday, so try to do something that puts the roses back in your cheeks. You're in the mood for some fun, so try to concentrate on enjoying yourself whenever possible. How about going out for a meal, visiting the cinema or theatre, or just getting together with some of your favourite people? Fortunate colours are lilac and caramel. Lucky numbers are 13 and 34.
 
You'll have some interesting conversations today, especially if you're discussing topics that mean a lot to you. It's a brilliant day for taking part in a debate or negotiation, because you'll put a lot of thought into what you say. If there have been problems with a close relative or neighbour recently, this is just the day to resolve them. Mellow colours are brass and orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 73.
 
Tempers are easily frayed right now, and you're just as likely to blow your top as anyone else. There's nothing wrong with losing your temper, but it's important that you channel it in the right directions and don't simply take out your bad mood on anyone who has the misfortune to stray across your path. Even when giving someone a piece of your mind you should try not to make a meal of it. A little moderation is needed! Auspicious colours are oyster and peach. Lucky numbers are 15 and 64.
 
You long to disappear into a safe world of your own today, and who can blame you after yesterday's upsets. You'll have to return to the fray sooner or later, but in the meantime you crave some light relief. If things are really tough you might draw spiritual comfort from being in a sacred place or simply by contemplating your current situation and putting it in context. Beneficial colours are kiwifruit and cream. Lucky numbers are 34 and 74.
 
Tempers flare, making it a rather tense and edgy day. You're in a tearing hurry and want to get things done as quickly as possible, but not everyone is playing ball. You may also come up against blockages and obstacles in the form of rules or standard ways of doing things. Let off steam in therapeutic ways otherwise you'll become completely wound up or furious. Fortunate colours are aquamarine and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 66.
 
You're feeling lucky today. Things are going your way, a pleasant experience after yesterday's trials and tribulations. It's a good day for chancing your arm in some way, perhaps by taking a small risk, placing a modest bet or buying a lottery ticket. But don't kid yourself that success is guaranteed, because unfortunately it isn't. Positive colours are vermilion and cherry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 40.
 
It's a difficult day because someone wants to throw their weight about and they don't really care how they do it. They're showing all the subtlety of a Scud missile when it comes to getting their own way or calling the shots, so you'd be wise to put as much distance between the two of you as possible. And make sure you don't beat them at their own game by being even more bossy or dictatorial. It's not a good move! Auspicious colours are aquamarine and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 24 and 9.
 
Be careful of anyone claiming to occupy the moral high ground, or who thinks they've got all the answers because they'll be a complete pain in the neck today. They may also want to convert you or save you in some way. Make sure you don't behave in a similar fashion. Try gentle persuasion if you want folks to see things from your point of view. Positive colours are strawberry and grape. Lucky numbers are 27 and 2.
 
Take care today because a certain person is being very domineering and dictatorial. They want to have things all their own way and they'll sulk if that doesn't happen. Don't behave this way yourself, Scorpio, even if it feels very tempting, because it will only make people want to pit themselves against you in order to spite you. Positive colours are rose quartz and oyster. Lucky numbers are 20 and 67.
 
Prepare yourself for a difficult day where nothing goes quite the way you'd like or planned. You might encounter lots of blockages and problems from other people who appear to be standing in your way, or you may hit snags when appliances and pieces of machinery go on the blink. For instance, your car might start to play up or your computer could go all weird on you. And most frustrating it will be, too. Auspicious colours are coffee and cream. Lucky numbers are 5 and 46.
 
This is a fabulous day to make some big changes to your life, especially if they're connected with a relationship or your long-term goals. It may not be very easy to make these changes because of what they represent, but you know how important they are. Watch out for someone who's being bossy and demanding, especially if you can't give them what they want. Keep a wide berth until they calm down. Calming colours are jade and lazuli. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
Your domestic situation hasn't exactly been sweetness and light recently, so today gives you the opportunity to iron out the problems and get to the bottom of what's going on. Do your best to avoid being bossy, domineering or manipulative, and be honest about how you're feeling. You must also be prepared to make some changes in order to improve the situation. Fortunate colours are avocado and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 13.
 
Be very careful today because hothouse emotions such as jealousy and possessiveness will never be far away. And they won't go down well, either. The trouble is that you'll struggle to hide your emotions, and unless you can be honest with yourself about how you're feeling you'll make them very plain to the people concerned. If that happens, it will be better to say what you think than to pretend that nothing's wrong while sending out a very contradictory strong message. Auspicious colours are mushroom and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 40 and 66.
 
A certain someone is convinced that they have right on their side, which they think gives them carte blanche to behave in any way they choose. It doesn't, of course, but woe betide you if you try to point this out. Just let them get on with it, preferably far away from you. And don't fall into the same trap yourself of adopting a moralistic tone that's really a form of bullying. Subtle colours are hazelnut and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 30 and 13.
 
This is a day for doing some troubleshooting. You're in the mood to fix problems, especially if you're completely fed up with them and you want to sort them out before they drive you crazy. But you must be careful how you do this, particularly if you're giving someone orders. Don't be bossy or rob them of their dignity, even if you are exasperated by them. Dreamy colours are mulberry and viridian. Lucky numbers are 4 and 39.
 
Tread carefully with someone today, because they're in a very domineering and controlling mood. They want you to do exactly what they tell you, and they'll make life very difficult for you if you dare to disobey them. It will be almost impossible to let them carry on like this without saying something, but it will take guts to confront them and say what you think. Soothing colours are baby pink and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 10 and 48.
 
Put on your tin hat today, because you're facing a lot of opposition from a certain quarter. Someone seems determined to make you explain yourself in some way, perhaps because they don't like what you're doing or because you've done something wrong. If you're trying to introduce changes to a relationship or your domestic set-up, you may also face a great deal of resistance. Ideal colours are khaki and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 90 and 45.
 
It's a tricky day, Aquarius. Is someone is standing in your way and opposing your plans? Maybe they don't agree with what you're proposing and they're making their objections awfully clear, or perhaps they feel threatened by what you represent and they're trying to pull the rug out from under your feet. Be careful, and don't be tempted to get involved in a struggle to see who is most powerful, because it will backfire on you. Auspicious colours are hyacinth and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 1 and 33.
 
You aren't always keen on showing your feelings, Aquarius, but this is one day when you're happy to do so, provided that you're in the right company. You might even be persuaded to talk about topics that are very dear to your heart or which you normally consider to be very private, but which you're now ready to open up about. Fortunate colours are parchment and bronze. Lucky numbers are 22 and 3.
 
You long to be surrounded by familiar faces and places today, and you'll feel that you're missing out if this doesn't happen. It's certainly a day for enjoying your home comforts, perhaps by lazing around doing as little as possible or getting together with your favourite members of the family. You have some interesting thoughts about how to improve the look, atmosphere or value of your home. Beneficial colours are snow white and bright red. Lucky numbers are 11 and 68.
 
It's a red-letter day, because some wonderful opportunities could soon come along. Keep your eyes peeled and don't be complacent. You may not get another chance to make the most of them. If you're feeling lucky you might fancy a small bet or gamble, but don't play for high stakes or risk anything you can't afford to lose. Advantageous colours are champagne and marigold. Lucky numbers are 32 and 9.
 
You have masses of energy today, even if you're facing a pile of work. Well, your best bet is simply to get on with it, preferably in its order of priority. However, you'll function best if you can alternate bouts of hard work with something completely different. If you're desk- bound, go for a walk. If you're doing some physical exercise, give yourself a relaxing break. Sensitive colours are cinnamon and mango. Lucky numbers are 40 and 24.
 
You'll enjoy dashing around at home today, doing odd jobs and making sure that everything is running smoothly. You may even be inspired to do some cleaning or gardening, even if such tasks aren't usually on your list of top ten favourite activities. Once all that's out of the way, you might want to return to your current project of sorting through your old belongings and keepsakes. Prosperous colours are treacle and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 39.
 
You're in a very dynamic mood today, making you keen on getting things done as quickly and efficiently as possible. You certainly won't want to hang around, wasting time or twiddling your thumbs, when you could be rushing headlong through the day. You'll be better when you're left to your own devices but it looks like being a sociable day, so you'll have to juggle your activities in order to have some time to yourself. Lively colours are mustard and aqua. Lucky numbers are 27 and 6.
 
This is a terrific day for getting down to some hard work. You want to show what you're capable of, especially if that means getting involved in some sort of competition with other people. You've really got the bit between your teeth right now and will work round the clock if necessary to prove your point. It's a case of pulling out all the stops. Inspirational colours are strawberry and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 8 and 7.
 
It's an action-packed day, so prepare to be busy. You're in a go-getting mood and you'll enjoy keeping active for as long as possible. It's fun how things go faster than normal. Everyone else has to speed up to keep you company. They may not be able to do that, much to your disappointment, so be understanding about it. Inspirational colours are aubergine and blue. Lucky numbers are 2 and 29.
 
If you blew your top with someone on Sunday and you haven't yet apologized, do it today. It's a good day for making amends, because you're in an easy-going and harmonious mood. Do your best to make sure everyone gets on well with everyone else. If you're at work, put a lot of effort into what you're doing as a valuable member of the team. Empowering colours are terracotta and claret. Lucky numbers are 40 and 70.
 
You're blessed with abundant energy and stamina today, and you'll enjoy keeping on the move whenever possible. For instance, you might decide to visit the gym, or you might prefer to get physical in other, more intimate, ways. If you're taking part in something sporty, you'll be seized by a very competitive spirit. Uplifting colours are maroon and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 29 and 77.
 
This is a wonderful day for enjoying yourself, especially if you can get together with some of your favourite people. Consider doing something relaxing and fun with them if you have the time, or arrange to get together later in the week. Make contact with loved ones who are far away, too, either by ringing them or sending them an email. You'll feel really good as a result. Fortunate colours are scarlet and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 33 and 77.
 
If only it were always this simple to get on well with other people! But it isn't, which is why you should make the most of your current ability to strike the right note with influential people. Today is good for being with partners, close relatives and neighbours, whether you have an ulterior motive or you simply enjoy their company. Inspirational colours are pink and banana. Lucky numbers are 36 and 18.
 
Make the most of your dazzling charm today. You'll find it wonderfully easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around, and they'll enjoy your company too. You might even be inspired to do some entertaining, even if it's nothing more strenuous than inviting someone round for a cup of tea. But one word of warning - don't expect everyone to be at your beck and call all the time. Fortunate colours are azure and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 13 and 30.
 
If you're at work today, make a point of being extra nice to your colleagues and clients. That doesn't mean being patronizing or condescending. It simply means that you'll want to have a pleasant time with them and will do whatever you can to make that happen. You might even feel inspired to buy everyone a treat, such as some chocolate biscuits or a round of drinks in the pub after work. Divine colours are platinum and olive. Lucky numbers are 1 and 45.
 
It's easy to hit it off with everyone you meet today that it would be a shame to spend time on your own unless you really can't avoid it. So consider arranging to meet a friend for lunch or a quick drink after work, or decide to go mad and hit the town. There may also be a wonderfully romantic and sexy interlude with you-know-who, which will really put a spring in your step. Harmonious colours are aqua and apricot. Lucky numbers are 20 and 6.
 
It may be Monday but you're in a good mood, and you're happy to share it with whoever happens to be around. If you're at work, you'll make an effort to create a harmonious and cheerful atmosphere, even to the extent of inviting a colleague out for a drink or asking them about themselves. There could also be a mini flirtation with someone, which will lift your spirits. Beneficial colours are pale gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 10 and 63.
 
Someone does you a good turn today, much to your delight. It won't have to be a massive favour to win your gratitude and affection, but you'll be touched by even a modest gesture of friendship. There's a great rapport, too, between you and someone who comes from a different background or country, and you'll really enjoy one another's company. Beneficial colours are emerald and opal. Lucky numbers are 16 and 18.
 
This is a fabulous day for mixing with people you feel comfortable with. Enjoy their company... they'll cheer you up if you're slightly down in the dumps. If you're planning a surprise for a friend, you'll enjoy giving it plenty of thought now, so make it as special and memorable as possible. Fabulous colours are blackberry and gold. Lucky numbers are 32 and 5.
 
How about spending some money on your home or family today? You'll enjoy roaming around the shops seeing what's on offer, and you won't have to part with a small fortune to enjoy yourself either. Mind you, it won't be all that easy to stop yourself splurging on things you fancy, but at least make sure that they're attractive and that you'll still like them tomorrow. If you're going out for a meal you'll make the most of the experience. Exuberant colours are kiwifruit and amber. Lucky numbers are 39 and 74.
 
It's very easy to get on well with everyone around you today, which is good news. Take advantage of this amenable time to make contact with people who aren't always easy to deal with, in the hope that they're being more human than usual. Older friends and relatives are especially good company right now. Liberating colours are lapis lazuli and silver. Lucky numbers are 2 and 46.
 
Thank goodness it's a much more easy-going and harmonious day. If you suspect that you went overboard during the weekend, this will be a good chance to say sorry. It's also a lovely day for relaxing by doing something you always enjoy, such as getting involved in a favourite hobby or taking part in a group activity. Active colours are orange and parchment. Lucky numbers are 8 and 13.
 
This is just the day for being with other people, although you'd prefer to be with one or two rather than a cast of thousands. At some point you'll also appreciate having a little time to yourself. You don't have a lot of energy today, so you'll have to pace yourself, but guard against being so lazy that you get everyone else to do things for you. Peaceful colours are emerald and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 31 and 15.
 
It's no good expecting loved ones to behave themselves today, or to do what you were expecting. Instead, they'll go their own way whenever it suits them. Shop for items that are unusual in some way. However, resist buying things you don't really need but that amuse you because you're bored. Fortunate colours are persimmon and silver. Lucky numbers are 17 and 5.
 
Thank goodness the atmosphere is starting to improve dramatically. You're in a much more easy-going and gentle mood, so it's a good opportunity to apologize for your part in all the hoo-ha over the weekend. It's also a great day for arranging some forthcoming social events because you'll enjoy having them to look forward to. Revealing colours are peach and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 22 and 59.
 
Your popularity starts to soar today and it will continue to be high for the next few weeks. You might find that you're in much greater demand than usual with your friends, or you could be spoilt for choice when it comes to romantic partners. Lucky you! It's also a wonderful excuse to splash out on some treats and gifts for yourself. Prosperous colours are lemon and black. Lucky numbers are 30 and 72.
 
There's a lot of tension in the air at the moment, but don't let it to get to you. You'll easily lose your temper, and unfortunately you might do it with the wrong people, such as a boss or an older relative. However, you need to let off steam somehow, so don't bottle up your feelings completely. Look for positive and therapeutic outlets for all that angst. Receptive colours are scarlet and lime. Lucky numbers are 11 and 70.
 
It's very tempting to tell a special person where they're going wrong today. But will they appreciate your pearls of wisdom? No, they won't. In fact, they'll go further than that and tell you to mind your own business or point out all the ways that you're going wrong. You should also avoid starting a row about someone's values or what they spend their money on. It's a day for keeping your opinions to yourself unless you don't mind having a blazing row. Advantageous colours are oyster and champagne. Lucky numbers are 37 and 2.
 
It's another day when tempers are strained and it's easy to bite other people's heads off. What's wrong? It would be far better to sort out the real reason for your annoyance than to pretend everything's OK while getting irritated with everyone who comes within shouting distance. You won't feel nearly so angry when you've worked out what's really bugging you. Favourable colours are lilac and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 21.
 
The coming few weeks present a great opportunity to cultivate people of power and influence. That doesn't mean shamelessly sucking up to them, but it does involve such things as doing some networking, or chatting to your boss and being genuinely interested in what he or she might have to say. You might also get involved with someone who's either much older or much younger than you. Auspicious colours are amethyst and apricot. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
During the next few weeks you'll take great pleasure from the things and people that make your world go round. That might mean buying items that please you, even if they don't cost very much, or splashing out on something that's expensive but will grow in value over the years. You'll also enjoy buying items that will make you feel good about yourself, such as some new clothes or make-up. Insightful colours are silvery pink and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 15 and 18.
 
Yesterday's friction hasn't yet gone away. Anything could escalate, but you can clear the air, so that everyone knows where they stand. But try not to bear a grudge, nor to dredge up past grievances that have little or nothing to do with what's happening right now. Revealing colours are vanilla and bronze. Lucky numbers are 39 and 51.
 
Your social life will take up more of your time from today, and during the next couple of weeks you'll enjoy getting together with friends. If you're single at the moment you might even fall for someone with whom you have a platonic relationship right now, or you might get involved with someone you meet through a group activity. Soaring colours are sapphire and pink. Lucky numbers are 19 and 21.
 
During the next few weeks you'll really enjoy taking care of yourself and giving yourself some treats. You might decide to go for a top-to-toe makeover if you think it's necessary, or splash out on a new hairstyle or some different make-up. Whatever you do, you'll want to put your personal enjoyment and happiness before other considerations. Auspicious colours are dark green and russet. Lucky numbers are 34 and 63.
 
If things were tricky yesterday, unfortunately they're even more edgy today. You really need to sort things out now, rather than to let them carry on in this tense way for any longer. If that means having a rip-roaring row, then so be it. But try not to drag in old scores or past grievances. Deal with what's happening right now, not what's effectively ancient history. Vibrant colours are oyster and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 25 and 55.
 
Close and intimate relationships will blossom during the coming four weeks. This will be a wonderful opportunity for you to reveal your deepest feelings about some of the important people in your life. If you're currently a solo Aries, you might soon meet someone who will transform your world in many ways. Communicative colours are aqua and champagne. Lucky numbers are 30 and 17.
 
Your relationships blossom between now and mid October, thanks to your amenable attitude. You'll be far more concerned about keeping the peace than about getting your own way, although there may be times when you need to stand up for yourself even at the expense of harmony, to stop someone walking all over you. Healing colours are vermilion and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
 
It's a good day for keeping on top of domestic and financial matters, such as making sure all the bills have been paid or that you haven't run out of groceries. Your thoughts turn to days gone by, prompting a bout of nostalgia that make's you feel sad or lonely. If this happens, try to concentrate on what you've still got rather than on what you've lost. Playful colours are russet and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 6 and 72.
 
You're in the mood for some hard work today, and you're happy to slog away until it's all done. You'll also bring a very practical approach to what you're doing, which means it's highly unlikely that you'll have to do anything again because you didn't get it right first time round. You'll take great pride in being so efficient and organized, and quite right too! Favourable colours are salmon pink and coffee. Lucky numbers are 7 and 36.
 
A loved one is being very hasty and outspoken, and it won't take much to set them off. They seem to be spoiling for an argument, so virtually anything you say or do will be like a red rag to a bull. Make sure you don't behave in the same way yourself by becoming huffy and easily offended, especially over trifles. Do they really matter in the great scheme of things? Subtle colours are mauve and fudge. Lucky numbers are 46 and 10.
 
You're in a very efficient and businesslike mood today, especially when it comes to loved ones. For instance, you might decide to help someone to become more organized or you could tidy up a child's bedroom. If you fancy doing something creative you'll concentrate on activities that give you some solid results you can be proud of. Prosperous colours are chocolate and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 34 and 71.
 
You're ready to do some serious talking, Libra and discuss things that really matter. Although you won't even begin to be boring or pessimistic, you won't be interested in anything superficial or silly. Such things are simply not worth your attention right now, because you have meatier topics to consider. Dynamic colours are silver and dark green. Lucky numbers are 23 and 56.
 
Watch out, my luscious Fish, because it's easy to get bad- tempered and to become involved in silly slanging matches. That's especially likely to happen if you allow yourself to get bogged down in petty details and irritated by other people's odd habits. Try to be more reasonable and easy-going. If you're feeling agitated or nervy, work off your angst by doing something therapeutic. Stable colours are fawn and crimson. Lucky numbers are 34 and 37.
 
It's one of those tricky days when it's difficult to get on well with loved ones because they can't help annoying you. As a result, you'll be quick-tempered and rather huffy with them, which will only put them on the defensive, so in the end you'll get caught up in a vicious circle. Far better to clear the air by saying what you really think and then thrashing it out between you. Fabulous colours are brilliant white and bright red. Lucky numbers are 38 and 77.
 
A certain someone is wonderfully supportive and helpful today. In fact, they're being invaluable and you won't know how you would have coped without them. Well, why not say so? They'll be thrilled, even if they do pretend that they don't care either way. Make sure that you return the favour before too long. Diplomatic colours are avocado and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 21 and 42.
 
Skip your usual Saturday routine otherwise you'll soon start to feel frustrated and restricted. There may be certain commitments you can't wriggle out of but at least give yourself an incentive for getting through them by arranging some exciting activities for later on in the day. Don't be in too much of a hurry when carrying out tasks because you're rather accident prone at the moment. Favourable colours are cocoa and crimson. Lucky numbers are 26 and 75.
 
Someone needs your moral and emotional support today, and you'll be happy to give it. Maybe they're going through a hard time and they need to know that you'll be there for them, or perhaps they aren't very well and you have to do some chores on their behalf. At some point in the day you'll appreciate having some time to yourself, so you can get your breath back and enjoy your privacy. Beneficial colours are maroon and apricot. Lucky numbers are 29 and 47.
 
Do your best to keep sight of the bigger picture today, or you'll get caught up in tiny details that really don't matter but which possess your thoughts. Keep your possessions close to you, because if you mislay something, you'll waste a lot of valuable time trying to track it down again. Favourable colours are tangerine and cream. Lucky numbers are 22 and 5.
 
Someone is very caught up in petty details, making them extremely pedantic and really hard work. If you pronounce something in the wrong way they're likely to correct you, or they might feel obliged to put you right if you get your facts muddled up. Take care that you don't behave in the same way yourself, because it won't make you very popular. Lively colours are charcoal and fawn. Lucky numbers are 40 and 10.
 
A certain person is thinking in ways that make you uncomfortable today. Maybe you believe they're being rebellious or rude, or they're saying things that are too near the bone for you. They may also have touched a nerve by making comments that arouse deep emotions within you. Alternatively, you'll be the one who's dropping bombshells and raising eyebrows. If so, what are you trying to achieve? Auspicious colours are sable and jade. Lucky numbers are 29 and 11.
 
You'll really value having some peace and quiet today, preferably far away from everyone else. It will give you a chance to mull things over in your own time and without anyone interrupting your train of thought. You'll also appreciate the chance to consider a few of your values and morals, especially if current circumstances are challenging them in some way. Favourable colours are lemon and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 37.
 
Your mind is racing, making it difficult to keep track of your thoughts. If you're at work or trying to concentrate on something complicated, don't think so quickly that you run the risk of overlooking important details. Slow down, Gemini, and if necessary alternate periods of mental activity with bursts of physical action. Favourable colours are ebony and lime. Lucky numbers are 3 and 65.
 
Is someone deliberately trying to wind you up? You could be forgiven for thinking so because they're saying all sorts of outrageous things today. Maybe they want to shock you or do they really mean what they say? Your thoughts are speeded up today and as a result it will be hard to keep track of them, especially when thinking about some of your relationships. Beneficial colours are fuchsia and gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 10.
 
Feel like going shopping? Then consider spending some money on your home and family. You don't have to fork out of a fortune, either, because even buying a bunch of flowers will brighten up the place and make you feel good. If you do plan on spending a sizeable chunk of cash, make sure it's on something that will last. Maybe you should take along a loved one to give you some advice. Favourable colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 26 and 6.
 
After yesterday's miserable mood you need to cheer yourself up, Scorpio, and what better way to do it than to get together with some kindred spirits. Go out on the town with some friends or invite them over to your place if you feel like doing some entertaining. You'll also enjoy taking part in a group activity, but don't be surprised if you're expected to play a leading role in what's going on. Fortunate colours are dark red and ivory. Lucky numbers are 26 and 56.
 
Chase up any queries about your earnings or taxes. Not an exciting prospect but you'll be surprisingly successful at it, and it will be good to know that it's out of the way. This is also a good day for taking part in some sort of teamwork, whether you're being paid for it or you're doing it out of the goodness of your heart. Positive colours are ebony and silver. Lucky numbers are 25 and 20.
 
Your mind is speeded up today, so thoughts keep racing through your brain. It's difficult to keep track of them all, but try to write down the ones you can remember in case they turn out to be strokes of genius. You never know! You're particularly inspired when it comes to thinking about your finances and values, especially if you're trying to find new solutions to old problems. Opportune colours are indigo and basalt. Lucky numbers are 25 and 23.
 
You need plenty of mental scope today, or you'll feel hampered and restricted. Think outside the box, and if necessary, voice opinions that sound weird or off the wall. It certainly isn't a day for toeing the party line or trying to fit in with everyone around you, because that will drive you absolutely crazy. You need to be a free spirit, with no censorship on your thoughts or words, but be prepared for some people to dislike what you're doing. Lucky colours are jade and pearl. Lucky numbers are 37 and 3.
 
The state of play between you and someone is fantastic right now. You're on the same wavelength, you're taking real pleasure in each other's company and there's probably a lot of laughter as well. Make the most of this happy phase by spending some time together or by doing something special. If you're going out with each other for the first time it will be a really memorable and enjoyable date. Powerful colours are tan and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 21 and 3.
 
Your social life looks fantastic today, so try to spend as much time with other people as possible. Invite them over to your place, even if you can only offer them a cup of tea and a biscuit, or arrange to go out on the town if that's a more enticing prospect. This is also a lovely day for being with children or for bringing out your creative abilities. To put it simply, it's a play day! Auspicious colours are teal blue and spring green. Lucky numbers are 2 and 25.
 
You're intrigued by the facts today, and you're especially interested in quirky pieces of information. For instance, you might watch a television programme about something you wouldn't normally bother with but which fascinates you at the moment, or you could get completely wrapped up in something with a scientific slant. You'll also be surprised at some of the thoughts that whirl through your brain because they'll seem so outrageous. Lucky colours are gold and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 17 and 52.
 
Do your best to postpone anything serious or important today, because you simply aren't in the mood. Your mind will keep drifting off the subject, making it hard to concentrate at best, and causing you to make silly or irritating mistakes at worst. Try to tackle it in another couple of days when you're more like your old self. Beneficial colours are teal and white. Lucky numbers are 15 and 57.
 
Prepare yourself for a rather difficult day. Other people are hard work and you don't have as much energy as usual. If there's a slight sense of reserve between you and a friend or close partner, you might feel neglected and lonely. Try not to make too much of this, because it will pass quickly, leaving you wondering what all the fuss was about. Steady colours are fawn and sepia. Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
 
No matter what you're doing today, try to spare the time for a chat with someone you see virtually every day. This might be a colleague, a member of the family or a neighbour who really needs to talk to you. This person might also want to ask your opinion, in which case you'll do your best to help and point them in the right direction. Harmonious colours are lavender and plum. Lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
 
You need plenty of interesting things to keep you entertained today, and you won't be happy if the day turns out to be very predictable or boring. Ideally, you should be able to do things on the spur of the moment and to follow your instincts, not have to toe the line or play by the rules. Give yourself a treat at some point and visit somewhere you don't know very well. Beneficial colours are magenta and navy. Lucky numbers are 18 and 44.
 
It's very easy to allow yourself to become despondent and gloomy today, especially if things don't go the way you were hoping. Rather than shrug off the disappointments and chalk them up to experience, you could be plunged into temporary self-doubt and anxiety. It won't help if you're with someone who's trying to score a few points off you or point out your mistakes. Energising colours are blonde and caramel. Lucky numbers are 6 and 12.
 
Your brain is working really well, Sagittarius, so make the most of it. It's in a clever and precise state. Put your thoughts down on paper, fill in forms or do anything else that requires concentration and an ability to put your thoughts into words. Keep abreast of small details as well, so you don't lose track of what's going on. Fabulous colours are hyacinth and ginger. Lucky numbers are 30 and 2.
 
Don't overlook any important financial transactions today, such as making a payment to your credit card company or an instalment on a hire purchase agreement. It's a day when it's easy to forget such things because unexpected events attract your attention and demand your time. So get the routine things out of the way first, and then you don't have to worry about them. Outrageous colours are gold and oak. Lucky numbers are 23 and 24.
 
Take care of yourself because life is rather tough today. You're feeling weighed down by responsibility and everything seems to be too much trouble. Do your best to rise above this rather gloomy mood, otherwise you'll drag yourself through the day and make heavy weather of everything that happens to you. Things aren't really as bad as they seem. Inspirational colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 70.
 
Someone has their head in the clouds today, making it very difficult to communicate with them. Maybe they're distracted by thinking about something important or they're simply on another planet and it's a waste of breath even trying to talk to them when they're like this. But don't be too quick to accuse others of being flaky because you may be slightly off the wall at the moment yourself. Loving colours are burgundy and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 35 and 37.
 
You're very interested in what other people have to say today, so it's great for taking part in a serious discussion or debate. Listen carefully to what others think before reaching your conclusions, and do your best to explain your own point of view so everyone else can understand it. The results will be beneficial for everyone concerned. Favourable colours are pearl and grape. Lucky numbers are 16 and 12.
 
You're in a very chatty mood today. In fact, you'll be reluctant to draw breath at times, especially when you're with people you know well. A conversation could spark off your imagination or give you important clues about what to do with your life. You'll also enjoy having an easy-going natter with a close friend or neighbour. Beneficial colours are crimson and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 12.
 
If you've been over-indulging yourself during the past couple of days, guilt will start to catch up with you, Libra. You might feel appalled by the amount you've eaten or drunk, particularly if you're meant to be on a diet, and you could also worry about the amount of money you've got through. What on earth got into you? Try not to be too hard on yourself because that will only make you miserable. What's important is to learn from experience, not to beat yourself up about it. Beneficial colours are plum and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 40 and 29.
 
You're in the mood to indulge yourself today, my lovely Sea- Goats. This isn't very good news if you're supposed to be keeping your nose to the grindstone, so work hard while you have to, then relax by doing something enjoyable and which makes you feel pampered. A pleasant encounter with someone in a position of power is in the stars. It's obvious how much they like and admire you. Lucky colours are sapphire and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 14 and 10.
 
You're looking for emotional highs again today, so you won't bother with anything or anyone that you don't care about. You might have a significant emotional encounter with someone, where you both say what you think, or spend time on your own mulling over a recent experience. This is also a good day for making small changes to your life, such as getting rid of belongings that you no longer need. Playful colours are dark purple and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 16 and 11.
 
If there have been problems between you and you-know-who recently, this is a great opportunity to set matters right. Don't be afraid to mention what's gone wrong, without assigning any blame, and then initiate a discussion into how to make things better in future. Work hard at creating an atmosphere in which you both feel comfortable about expressing your feelings. Healing colours are marmalade and cream. Lucky numbers are 12 and 32.
 
This is one of those heart-warming days when it's wonderfully easy to get on well with other people. Nothing very spectacular may happen between you, but things will be harmonious and there'll be a very easy-going atmosphere between you. If you've fallen out with someone recently, take advantage of today's good vibes to make amends. Harmonious colours are copper and lavender. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
It's another day when you want to enjoy creature comforts and have an enjoyable time at home. Faced with the option of getting on with some hard work or putting your feet up, it will be no contest. The sofa or garden chair will win every time! You're being ultra charming at the moment so make the most of it, especially if you want to butter someone up. Prosperous colours are pale gold and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 15 and 14.
 
Fancy being busy around your home today? You're in exactly the right mood to stage a big tidy-up, and it will be even more satisfying if you can throw away some clutter at the same time. It will be better still if you can recycle it. Go through your cupboards and drawers to see if you can give away any of your old clothes or other possessions that you no longer need. Favourable colours are persimmon and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 14 and 75.
 
It's another day for pampering yourself and having a good time and you'll carry on where you left off yesterday. Food and drink will play a big role in the day once again, and you won't need to be asked twice whether you want to go out for a meal or a trip to your favourite bar. If you pass any nice shops you'll whizz into them in a flash and will have to be forcibly restrained from spending money. So expect an expensive but enjoyable day. Auspicious colours are hazelnut and spring green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 49.
 
Once again you're in the mood to be with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you. You'll build a strong rapport, especially if you have shared interests to discuss. Life is full of interest and valuable lessons today, so open yourself up to some of them and prepare to be enriched as a result. Advantageous colours are lime and orange. Lucky numbers are 5 and 21.
 
Give yourself a treat and do something that's good for you but which is also very enjoyable. For instance, you could go for a relaxing swim or book up a massage that helps you to unwind. Food will almost definitely play a big part in all this at some point, with your taste buds crying out for some delicious flavours. They may also be rather calorific, but you don't care! Soothing colours are tangerine and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 40 and 3.
 
This is a brilliant day for doing some socializing, especially if you can get together with people who are unusual or interesting in some way. You might be attracted by the fact that they come from a different background or culture to yours, in which case you could have a fascinating discussion about it. You're still interested in spiritual topics, which could be another connection between the two of you. Soaring colours are platinum and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 3 and 7.
 
This is an excellent day for doing some troubleshooting and sorting out problems. Instead of feeling daunted, you're ready to tackle them and to get on top of them. Check that your financial arrangements are running smoothly. If you're puzzled by a strange entry in your bank statement or by something contained in a bill, get to the bottom of it now while you're in the right mood. Advantageous colours are jade and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 35 and 53.
 
This is a fabulous day for expressing the creative side of your personality, so consider doing something artistic. If you're no good at such things yourself, why not admire someone else's efforts? Try visiting an art gallery, listening to music or watching a film. However, you won't be nearly as enthusiastic about doing any hard work! Lively colours are lapis lazuli and banana. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
Yesterday you were the soul of practicality, but today you're much more dreamy and idealistic. Try to avoid getting involved in anything that calls for sharp thinking or a clear head because that simply isn't the way your mind is working. Instead, you excel at using your intuition, being creative and tuning into the atmosphere around you. Mellow colours are dark green and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 39 and 51.
 
Optimism is flowing through you, making you feel great. You're in a confident mood, especially when it comes to work. As a result, you may take on more tasks than usual and, much to your surprise, manage to get through them all. However, you must guard against a tendency to take on too much and then become defeated, because that will be annoying. Naughty colours are charcoal and plum. Lucky numbers are 22 and 70.
 
You need to take some time off today because you don't have as much energy as usual. It's not that you're feeling ill or lacklustre, simply that you're longing to put your feet up and let the rest of the world carry on without you. Lose yourself in a good book or go to the cinema to watch a romantic or fantasy film. You feel like escaping into another world for a short while. Soothing colours are caramel and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 17 and 4.
 
Gather your loved ones around you today as you'll make a special effort to make sure that everyone is feeling good, and if you're cooking you'll probably prepare enough food to feed a small army. The trouble is that you'll want to eat most of it yourself, which won't do your waistline any good. Exuberant colours are pale pink and ebony. Lucky numbers are 8 and 31.
 
Trust your intuition today, especially when it comes to your partner and close relatives. Your instincts could give you some very good information about these people or prompt you to take action about them. If you have the time to spare you'll enjoy investigating a subject that you consider to be slightly mystical or mysterious, such as giving yourself a tarot reading or buying an astrological study of your horoscope. Ideal colours are charcoal and silver. Lucky numbers are 35 and 55.
 
What a difference a day makes! Yesterday you were busy thinking about how to cut back on your expenses and increase your investments, and today your money is burning a hole in your pocket. Better keep well away from the shops if you know that you'll splurge the moment you get within sniffing distance of a cash register or a carrier bag. Practical colours are mauve and fawn. Lucky numbers are 21 and 78.
 
You're in a really good mood today, and you want it to rub off on everyone else. You'll soon cheer up anyone who's down in the dumps, yet without being falsely jovial and irritating. It's a day for indulging yourself, whether emotionally or physically, so be careful if you're supposed to be counting the calories because they'll be the last thing on your mind. Ideal colours are ginger and maroon. Lucky numbers are 20 and 24.
 
You long to be with loved ones today. You want a nice, gentle day without any upsets or dramas, and you'll feel happiest if you're with people you know inside out. At some point you'll enjoy being allowed to relax on your own, especially if water is involved. For instance, soak in a bath with rose petals, scent and candles, or float in the swimming pool by yourself. Ideal colours are magenta and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 17 and 36.
 
This is a fabulous day for being with friends. They'll put a great big smile on your face, and you'll do the same for them. In fact, you'll really appreciate being with people who feel like your kindred spirits, because you'll have a strong sense of belonging when you're with them. There could also be good news about one of your hopes and wishes for the future, which will cheer you up no end. Fortunate colours are basalt and brass. Lucky numbers are 10 and 57.
 
You're in a very expansive and jolly mood today, which will win you lots of fans. Being so cheerful makes you feel good, so you'll enjoy the day and attract some positive situations and people. Feeling enthusiastic? This will quickly rub off on the people around you. Don't be surprised if you're very popular today, Capricorn! Empowering colours are mandarin and yellow. Lucky numbers are 10 and 35.
 
The spiritual and mystical side of life comes forward today, and you'll enjoy exploring it. Why not have an astrology reading to find out what's going to happen to you, or you could be inspired to get out your tarot cards. Alternatively, you could visit somewhere that's full of atmosphere and which has a really beneficial impact on your mood. Wonderful colours are rose and brown. Lucky numbers are 14 and 40.
 
You're in a rather extravagant mood today, so watch out. You might get the urge to splurge on all sorts of treats, and to put all the payments on your credit card so you don't have to think about how much you're spending. Well, you may not have to do so today, Pisces, but you'll know all about it when your next statement arrives, so try not to go overboard unless you're absolutely loaded. Fortunate colours are strawberry and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 31 and 47.
 
You have some important things to say today, so don't be shy about speaking up. Choose someone who has the intelligence and the sensitivity to be able to listen carefully to what you're saying and to respond in a worthwhile way. If you're making travel plans at the moment, this is a good day for checking that everything is going well. Ideal colours are blonde and lilac. Lucky numbers are 35 and 16.
 
This is a great day for working in partnership with someone, provided that they know what they're doing and you don't have to cover for them. This teamwork will go very well, and you'll manage to achieve a lot. At some point today you should also go through your finances and make sure that you've paid any outstanding bills and credit card statements. Bright colours are salmon and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 27 and 17.
 
This is a brilliant day for taking stock of your current financial situation, so you can do something about it if necessary. You might decide to put aside more money each month in savings, or to pay off some bills before you forget all about them. If you need to economize at the moment, this is the perfect opportunity to work out how you can do this. You'll be tough on yourself without being unrealistic. Ideal colours are dark gold and emerald. Lucky numbers are 31 and 31.
 
It's a day when hard work pays off, not only by filling you with a strong sense of satisfaction but also by achieving a lot.

Liberating colours are peach and brass. Lucky numbers are 29 and 11.
 
Take the time to have a sensible, sober and practical conversation with loved ones today. You might have to put someone's mind at rest because they're worried about something, or they could ask you to make some enquiries on their behalf. You're full of common sense right now and you'll convey your message with admirable efficiency and accuracy. Advantageous colours are marmalade and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 17.
 
Serious conversations appeal today and aren't interested in chatting about trivia. For instance, given the choice between discussing the latest news headlines and what happened in last night's soap, you'll go for the headlines every time. It's a marvellous day for any sort of study or research, especially if you can work by yourself. Great colours are chestnut and topaz. Lucky numbers are 16 and 60.
 
Friends are important to you today. One of them might give you some valuable information or they could provide the moral support you need at the moment. It's also a good day for thinking about your future plans and for working out how they're progressing. Do you need to make any adjustments or is everything ticking over nicely? Empowering colours are ebony and ivory. Lucky numbers are 2 and 22.
 
Cast an eye around your home or workplace, to see if anything needs fixing or replacing. You're in a practical and sensible mood, so if you go shopping you won't be interested in wasting your time or money on fripperies or extravagances. At some point you may be asked to help a relative or colleague who's struggling with a problem, and you'll do your best to lend a hand. Expressive colours are parchment and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 13 and 75.
 
You're happiest if you can be left to your own devices today, and allowed to work at your own pace and in your own time. You don't want to be hurried and you don't want a lot of people breathing down your neck either. You're in a very disciplined mood, so it's great for getting on with dreary but essential chores or tackling some complicated paperwork. Vibrant colours are crimson and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 70.
 
You're in a very pragmatic and grounded frame of mind today and you'll take any problems in your stride rather than get into a total flap about them. As a result, you may attract someone who needs a shoulder to cry on or who wants to ask your advice. They've chosen well because, in your current mood, you're wise and rational. Loving colours are pistachio and red. Lucky numbers are 24 and 64.
 
This is a great day to do some household shopping, whether that means having a trip around the supermarket so you can stock up on the basics or having a more exciting time by looking for new furniture or fittings. If you're currently in the throes of improving your home or doing some DIY, devote part of today to checking that you have everything you need. Favourable colours are dark red and bronze. Lucky numbers are 18 and 65.
 
You're in a very practical and organized mood today, and you won't want to waste any time or effort. It will help to plan your day in advance so you can be at your most efficient and you don't run the risk of having to do anything twice or in the wrong order. If you're taking part in a conversation or discussion, yours will be the voice of reason. Fortunate colours are peach and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 21 and 58.
 
Are you the sort of Gemini who accumulates all sorts of mementos (which the rest of the family probably think of as junk)? Then the next two weeks are the perfect opportunity to sort through a few of your possessions. You may even be inspired to put some of them in order or to chuck some of them out, especially if you can't even remember why you kept them in the first place. Auspicious colours are chestnut and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 12 and 25.
 
Have you had some misunderstandings with a certain person lately? If so, spend today trying to sort them out so you can get things back on an even keel. Don't be afraid to say how you feel, although you may have to choose your words carefully to avoid shocking or offending anyone. You want the situation to improve, not to become worse than ever.

During the next couple of weeks you need to think seriously about your finances, especially those you share with others.

If there have been problems or misunderstandings between you and someone recently, this is a fabulous day to iron them out. And it will be easier than you expected, which is a relief. But be prepared to admit to your own part in all the problems, rather than to subtly imply that they're nothing to do with you. Accept your share of the blame and then all will be well. Uplifting colours are lilac and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 10 and 32.
 
You're in a very emotional mood today, Scorpio, and you'll enjoy proving it to some of the special people in your life. Is someone in your sights? Perhaps you're hoping to spend a lot of time with them behind locked doors! Whatever you do, it must have a lot of meaning and give you emotional satisfaction. Nothing less will suffice. Romantic colours are silvery pink and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 35 and 48.
 
From today your thoughts turn in a personal direction, making you spend a lot more time than usual thinking about your personal circumstances and needs. This will necessarily be a very self-involved time, although there will be occasions when you need to wrench your thoughts away from your own concerns so you can concentrate on what others are going through. Positive colours are auburn and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 13 and 3.
 
The next couple of weeks are great for doing some serious thinking. Think about your goals and ambitions, or about where your life is taking you.

Auspicious colours are green velvet and red. Lucky numbers are 20 and 21.
 
The best way to get on well with partners at the moment is to talk to them. And to listen to them too!

Take care to explain your thoughts, rather than simply imagine that other people know what you're talking about. Lively colours are purple and crimson. Lucky numbers are 10 and 76.
 
This is a fantastic day for improving the way you communicate with people. Provided, that is, you're prepared to be honest about your short-comings!

How can you transform the tricky partnerships into something more positive? Empowering colours are topaz and ivory. Lucky numbers are 30 and 35.
 
It will give you great pleasure to use your brain between now and late September. You might read a lot more than usual, or you could be inspired to put pen to paper yourself.

Auspicious colours are vermilion and lavender. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
You're full of curiosity about the world from today, and it will take a lot to satisfy you. As a result you'll want to explore all sorts of facts and figures, and your idea of heaven will be to relax with a good book or to talk to people who really make you think. If you've been toying with the idea of learning a new language, this is the perfect time to start. Beneficial colours are fruit and indigo. Lucky numbers are 3 and 14.
 
It's a great day for relationships because you're in a very understanding and sympathetic mood.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 42.

Lucky numbers are 14 and 10.
 
Today's New Moon is sending you exciting messages about your career, because it's telling you to get new projects off the ground and to make great strides in your ambitions over the coming fortnight.

All your intimate relationships are highlighted by today's New Moon, and you'll feel its effects for the next two weeks.

Today's New Moon will have a big impact on your finances during the next two weeks, which should be good news.

It's also great for making sensible investments that stand a good chance of working in your favour. Beneficial colours are peacock blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 2 and 28.
 
There's a New Moon today and it will be affecting your relationships during the next two weeks.

A new partnership might get off the ground now as well, in which case it will be very successful. Creative colours are sage and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 7 and 76.
 
Here's some good news. Today's New Moon falls in your own sign, so the coming two weeks will be a great opportunity for you to make some fresh starts in your life and to turn over a new leaf.

You have a great deal to say for yourself today, and there will be times when you don't want to draw breath. Don't be reluctant to let anyone else take over the conversation, or this is where the problems begin. If you want it to be a conversation, rather than a monologue, why not allow other people to participate? Communicative colours are purple and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
You're in a very thoughtful mood today, especially about personal concerns. Actually, you won't want to think about anything else, so it's bad luck on anyone who was hoping to talk to you about themselves because you simply won't be interested. You may have to disguise this fact, though, or risk accusations of being self-obsessed. Fortunate colours are avocado and caramel. Lucky numbers are 27 and 39.
 
You really value your friends today, Aquarius, so spend as much time with them as possible. Maybe you need to talk about what happened yesterday, whether it was good or bad, or perhaps you simply want to enjoy their company. You'll take all your relationships quite seriously now, but without getting too heavy or emotionally demanding. Steady colours are red and navy. Lucky numbers are 11 and 60.
 
Spend time with friends today, especially if you want to sort out any difficulties or misunderstandings that have sprung up between you lately.

Harmonious colours are salmon pink and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 23.
 
You're in a very intense mood today, making you take everything more seriously than usual. You're also looking for deep and meaningful encounters with other people, so you won't be interested in what you see as superficial conversations when instead you could be discussing the meaning of life or trading psychological insights. You could learn a lot, but don't lose your sense of humour in the process. Expressive colours are viridian and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 15 and 49.
 
Someone isn't being very logical today. They've allowed their feelings to get caught up with their ideas, so they've lost their objectivity and insight. This could make them difficult to deal with, especially if you're talking about topics that are bound to arouse heightened emotions or stir everyone up into a frenzy. Do your best not to get swept up into this maelstrom of emotion yourself, although that will be easier said than done. Sociable colours are lime and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 23 and 21.
 
This is a good day for making up for yesterday's excesses, especially if you overdid the food and drink. Maybe you should spend the day having nothing but mineral water and grapes, or perhaps you'd prefer a quiet lie-down. If you can work up the energy you'll enjoy having a blitz on the cleaning or tidying, and it will be good to chuck lots of things away that you no longer need. Beneficial colours are khaki and purple. Lucky numbers are 18 and 43.
 
This is a great day for taking care of any situations or pieces of equipment that need to be fixed.

The same goes for any difficult circumstances at work. You need to fix them now before they get any worse. Ideal colours are dark yellow and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 22 and 44.
 
A member of the family is being very garrulous today, so be warned.... once they start chatting, it will be difficult to shut them up. That's fine if you have the time to listen to them but it's not such good news if you're dashing around trying to cram too many activities into too few hours. If you get involved in a family discussion, bear in mind that everyone will be feeling rather emotional or huffy, so you'll have to choose your words carefully. Practical colours are teal blue and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 35 and 70.
 
This is a day for being left alone with your thoughts. You're in a very reflective and contemplative mood, so it will be difficult for you to snap out of it and become extremely chatty and sociable. There's a lot you need to mull over in private, some of which may be painful and difficult, but you'll feel better for having done so. Liberating colours are grapefruit and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 39 and 13.
 
You'll really enjoy playing with words, whether that means thinking up jokes that has everyone in stitches, pitting your wits against a crossword puzzle or putting your thoughts down on paper.

Lucky numbers are 12 and 33.
 
Spend time sorting out your working environment today. That might involve tidying up your desk, deleting unwanted files from your computer or doing a lot of filing.

Positive colours are marigold and parchment. Lucky numbers are 2 and 46.
 
Be prepared for some surprises today, especially connected with your finances or with a close relationship. For instance, you might get an unexpected bill or a surprise cheque in the post, or you could discover a hidden cache of money you'd forgotten about. Or an intimate partner might do or say something that throws your relationship into a completely new light. So get ready to expect the unexpected. Auspicious colours are maroon and khaki. Lucky numbers are 17 and 39.
 
People behave in ways you don't expect; the more you think you know someone, the more likely they are to surprise you. This might be because you have a very set opinion of them that has little bearing on who they really are, or it could be because you're easily shocked at the moment. Try to take everything in your stride and to keep an open mind. Beneficial colours are butterscotch and indigo. Lucky numbers are 18 and 43.
 
The last thing on your mind today is hard work and the first thing is enjoyment in the company of some amusing people. It's definitely a day for having fun, because you'll really feel that you're missing out if you can't cram in a few laughs at some stage. If you're going to any sort of social gathering you'll be the life and soul of the party. Opportunistic colours are dark gold and violet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 68.
 
You're determined to go your own way today, and you don't care what others might think about it. You've got a point to prove and you're impatient to do so. Well, that's all very well but try not to antagonize other people in the process. You may not be bothered right now but it will be a different story in the next few days when you realize the full implications of what's happened. So take things gently if you feel yourself getting out of control. Ideal colours are burgundy and champagne. Lucky numbers are 20 and 16.
 
Make the most of things today, Rams, because you're blessed with the happy knack of being able to hit it off with virtually everyone you meet.

This is a wonderful start to September because you're in such a great mood. You're feeling happy, optimistic and ready for some fun.

There's really only one thing you're interested in today, and that's having as much fun as possible. Work is a four-letter word as far you're concerned right now, and you'll come up with all sorts of excuses to avoid it. You're also in the mood to indulge yourself up to the eyebrows in food and drink, and the more the merrier. Although you may change your mind about that tomorrow, when you wake up with a hangover! Fabulous colours are vermilion and amber. Lucky numbers are 18 and 45.
 
Having a good time is your number one priority today, and you're determined to enjoy yourself as much as possible. You might go shopping and treat yourself to something luxurious, or go out for a meal and eat yourself into a stupor.

Beneficial colours are mango and aqua. Lucky numbers are 19 and 22.
 
Relationships are full of ups and downs, Pisces, so be prepared for a few upsets. Maybe a certain person wants to do their own thing without any interference from you, or perhaps you're the one who wants to prove that you're a free spirit and who's facing plenty of opposition as a result. Do your best to resolve these problems without resorting to dramatic remedies that are too over-the-top. Beneficial colours are sienna and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 22 and 38.
 
You start the month in fighting form, Sagittarius. You're energetic and eager to do things on the spur of the moment. You also have a very low boredom threshold, so find things to amuse yourself.

Adventurous colours are pistachio and cream. Lucky numbers are 16 and 42.
 
All you're really interested in today is having a good time. Hard work simply isn't an option, as far as you're concerned, even though it may be expected of you.

Calming colours are pearl and rose. Lucky numbers are 30 and 74.
 
It's a great start to the month because you're feeling optimistic, cheerful and affectionate, especially when you're with some of your nearest and dearest.

Uplifting colours are blonde and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 28 and 44.
 
You have a very enquiring mind and you'll enjoy giving it some exercise. Your idea of heaven is curling up with a book that you can't put down, or watching a riveting television programme that keeps you on the edge of your seat. There might also be a mini mystery connected with a loved one, making you long to get to the bottom of it all. Harmonious colours are azure and lemon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 60.
 
You need to get to the bottom of a mystery today, and you won't rest until you've got all the answers.

Keep all these investigations under control, even if they have whetted your appetite to know more. Auspicious colours are apricot and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 9 and 16.
 
Don't underestimate the power of your thoughts today. You're able to think about very deep and important subjects, yet without getting bogged down in them or losing all sense of perspective.

Lucky numbers are 28 and 22.
 
This is a brilliant day for examining your financial arrangements to make sure they're all right.

Do some research because you'll enjoy feeling that you're actually getting somewhere. Expressive colours are ivory and mauve. Lucky numbers are 35 and 55.
 
You have a very enquiring mind, making you eager to get to the bottom of any mysteries or puzzles.

Do some troubleshooting now because you're eager to think things through and examine them from every angle.

Fortunate colours are tan and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 30 and 14.
 
You're ready to give your brain a good work-out, especially if you want to consider your current job position or your financial status.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 63.

End the month on a practical note by checking that your financial arrangements are running smoothly.

You have stars in your eyes whenever you think about a certain person today. You can see only the good in them and are keen to ignore any faults they may have.

If a new relationship gets off the ground now, it will always be tinged with the seductive gloss of romance and glamour. Positive colours are burgundy and mustard. Lucky numbers are 7 and 29.
 
Your admiration for someone knows no bounds right now. Maybe you work with them and you really look up to them, or you're inspired by the way they're coping with a difficult situation.

Fabulous colours are raspberry and beige. Lucky numbers are 38 and 53.
 
All you really want to do is to daydream and disappear into a lovely world of your own.

Lucky numbers are 33 and 20.
 
You're very starry eyed when it comes to a certain person today, and you won't hear a word against them.

That's okay if you'll have a more rounded opinion of them again in a few days' time, but you'll be heading for problems if you continue to think that they're a god in human form. Auspicious colours are sapphire blue and sapphire green. Lucky numbers are 29 and 24.
 
You have a soft heart at the best of times but it seems to be made of marshmallow today. You'll like nothing better than being with people you love and making a fuss of them.

This means you aren't interested in unpleasant facts and you'll do your utmost to avoid them. Uplifting colours are navy and bronze. Lucky numbers are 12 and 65.
 
You're in a very forgiving and understanding mood, and ready to give someone the benefit of the doubt if you think they deserve it. However, don't let this person off the hook purely because you want to come across as nice, because that will be inviting them to upset you in some way again in the future. If you have the time you'll enjoy spoiling yourself with a beauty treatment or complementary health therapy. Ideal colours are fudge and deep purple. Lucky numbers are 28 and 17.
 
You're in a very understanding and compassionate mood today, so it's great for talking to people about their problems because you'll want to listen carefully to what they're saying.

Ideal colours are champagne and rich purple. Lucky numbers are 26 and 76.
 
Be careful if you're out shopping today because you won't be nearly as discerning as usual. That means you could be persuaded to buy items that aren't really worth the money that's being asked for them, or you might ignore the hefty price tag and kid yourself that you can afford it after all. If you're with someone you admire you'll only want to see the best in them. Fortunate colours are silvery green and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 1 and 24.
 
Surround yourself with loved ones today. You'll love being with them, especially as they're perfect as far as you're concerned at the moment.

You're such a softie today it's amazing you don't melt in the sunshine. You're in a very affectionate and loving mood, and you'll want to share it with everyone around you.

Lucky numbers are 33 and 73.
 
Your relationships have a lot to offer today. Actually, the more you put into them the more you'll get out of them, so don't just sit back expecting other people to do all the hard work.

Steamy colours are sable and crimson. Lucky numbers are 32 and 46.
 
Love is all around you today, whether it's romantic, sexual, platonic or family affection.

Expressive colours are ginger and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 56.
 
You've been very sociable over recent days but you feel a strong need for your own company. So try to enjoy some solitude at some point, otherwise you'll really feel that you're missing out.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 47.
 
You need to devote at least part of the day to something that means a lot to you, otherwise you'll feel as though you've missed out in some way.

You'll also appreciate having some peace and quiet at some point. Beneficial colours are coffee and cream. Lucky numbers are 21 and 74.
 
This is a wonderful day for keeping busy. You won't want to do anything else, actually, and may even feel rather frustrated and trapped if you don't have much to occupy your time.

Exuberant colours are silver and hot pink. Lucky numbers are 14 and 34.
 
Feeling better after yesterday's lack of energy? You should be and this is a good day for mixing with people who are on the same wavelength as you and for enjoying their company.

Expressive colours are tangerine and dove grey. Lucky numbers are 30 and 17.
 
You're in a great mood today, especially if you can get together with people whose company you always enjoy. Maybe you could do something special with your other half or plan a treat for your children? You're being very charming right now, which is great for knowing exactly what to say to certain people who aren't always easy. Choose your words carefully and you'll have these tricky so-and-sos eating out of your hand. Calming colours are pale coffee and green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.
 
Have a look around your home and decide whether it could do with some tender loving care. Should you move the furniture around, is it time to do some decorating or is the garden in need of an emergency weeding session? It will give you pleasure to potter around, doing odd jobs and generally taking care of your domestic surroundings. Opportunistic colours are orange and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 34 and 63.
 
The most satisfying way to spend the day is to roll up your sleeves and get on with some chores. You're feeling industrious and practical, and you'll enjoy looking at everything you've achieved. It doesn't matter whether you're busy at home or at work; what's important is to set yourself some targets and then achieve them in the most effective way you can manage. Favourable colours are maroon and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 10 and 21.
 
You're full of beans, and you want to enjoy yourself whenever you get the chance. You're also feeling extremely chatty, so it will be difficult to get down to any hard work because you just aren't in the mood for it. A local activity, such as a neighbourhood meeting, will turn out to be much more fun than you first thought, and may even lead to an invitation from someone. Dynamic colours are rich purple and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 12.
 
You're feeling industrious and businesslike, which is great for getting things done. Getting on well with colleagues and customers will make life easy and give you a sense of satisfaction. If you've yet to pay a bill or make contact with a financial institution, do it now while you're thinking about it. It will be good to know that it's all done and out of the way. Advantageous colours are black velvet and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 37 and 54.
 
Spend time with other people today because they'll make you feel good. It's perfect for getting together with someone who's on the same wavelength as you or who shares some of your beliefs. If you haven't heard from someone who lives far away or in another country, get in touch with them so you can find out how they are. Auspicious colours are sky blue and champagne. Lucky numbers are 40 and 27.
 
You need to make contact with friends today, even if you can only spare the time for a quick chat on the phone or a hurried cup of coffee at lunchtime. It will do you good to be with like-minded people, especially if you have something you want to discuss with them. You'll also enjoy becoming engrossed in a favourite hobby until it's all you can think about. Fortunate colours are lilac and aqua. Lucky numbers are 34 and 41.
 
Sundays haven't exactly been a day of rest recently, and today is no exception but at least it will be a lot less stressful than normal. You may even get the chance to go off and do your own thing rather than having to fit in around everyone else and do what's expected of you. You'll also enjoy a trip to somewhere completely new to you. Stable colours are tangerine and dusky rose. Lucky numbers are 32 and 19.
 
Today could turn out to be very frustrating, with little chance of making much progress. That could be because you lose all faith in your own abilities or because someone else sabotages what you're trying to do. But be honest with yourself about all this and don't blame others for what you know deep down are your own mistakes. Ideal colours are turquoise and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 29 and 19.
 
A certain person isn't as trustworthy as you might imagine, so be careful what you tell them. They may be trying to manipulate you into doing what they want, even though they give every appearance of behaving impeccably. Try to be aware of your own motives, too, because hiding them from yourself will simply mean that you're expressing them unconsciously. Fortunate colours are lime and toffee. Lucky numbers are 16 and 63.
 
Someone has some great ideas today, so listen carefully. They may even have some good suggestions for you that you could follow up when you've got a minute. But you're no slouch when it comes to dreaming up ideas either, so get thinking because your mind is expansive and brilliant at the moment. There's no knowing what you might come up with. Auspicious colours are lime and parchment. Lucky numbers are 30 and 36.
 
Life is difficult today and as a result you're in a very peculiar mood. A member of the family seems to be taking a perverse delight in tripping you up, or thwarting your plans. Someone might also tell you where you're going wrong, which will dent your confidence. Take note of what they're saying but disregard anything that you don't agree with... or which is obviously caused by sour grapes. Prosperous colours are kiwifruit and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
This is a tricky day because you feel as though you're stuck and can't make any progress. Maybe someone is standing in your way or objecting to all the suggestions you make. If so, you might decide that they're deliberately being awkward because they want to make life difficult for you. But why? You won't be able to answer that question yet, but keep it in mind. Powerful colours are ebony and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 39 and 27.
 
It's very hard to be motivated to do much at all today. You've run out of steam, and it won't help if you think a certain someone is trying to trip you up in some way. It will be best if you do whatever is absolutely necessary and leave the rest until another day when you feel better able to cope with it. Try to get plenty of relaxation so you can catch your breath and recharge your batteries. Vibrant colours are shimmering green and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 48.
 
A certain person is going out of their way to be wilful or unhelpful, particularly if money or something else of value is involved. They may be using very subtle tactics to get their own way, so it isn't immediately apparent what's going on. Be wary about who you trust right now, and listen to your instincts if you have doubts about someone. Fortunate colours are kiwi fruit and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 20 and 2.
 
Have a think about your finances today, especially if you want to come up with ways of increasing your bank balance or of gaining a more solid monetary footing in the world. You'll have some good ideas, and they'll be innovative without being totally wacky or impractical. However, don't count your chickens before they're hatched and assume that current possibilities will automatically turn out to be dead certainties. Propitious colours are cinnamon and silver. Lucky numbers are 24 and 48.
 
Think about your plans for the future, especially if you want to come up with some fresh ideas. It will help to bounce your ideas off someone who can be counted on to listen carefully and give you some suggestions of their own. If you've got a friend who lives abroad you might be inspired to ring them up so you can hear their voice. Opportunistic colours are jasmine and dark red. Lucky numbers are 33 and 30.
 
You feel as though you're flagging today. It's difficult to summon up the energy to do much, even if you wanted to. Maybe this is an opportunity to take the day off and have a rest? You should certainly try to avoid doing anything very strenuous or complex because you'll run out of steam halfway through and end up feeling guilty about it. Better to have a complete break and start again tomorrow. Beneficial colours are platinum and lavender. Lucky numbers are 15 and 31.
 
Give your brain plenty to think about because it will enjoy having something to chew over. You're fascinated by facts and figures now and might enjoy learning something new, or simply burying your nose in a good book. Conversations will also be intriguing because they'll cover all sorts of ground and certainly won't be confined to what was on television last night. Positive colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 39 and 52.
 
This is a great day for filling in complicated forms or any official paperwork that needs plenty of concentration. You're on the ball and might even enjoy what you're doing. If you've been considering how to boost your finances this is a good opportunity to do some research into the subject, whether you do it on the internet or consult your nearest bank or building society. Fortunate colours are oyster and bright red. Lucky numbers are 14 and 52.
 
You're in a jovial mood and you want to have as good a time as possible. It's a fabulous day for mixing with friends or for taking part in a neighbourhood activity, because you'll do your best to be outgoing and entertaining. A chance conversation could turn out to be the start of an interesting relationship, even if you don't realize it at this stage. Receptive colours are toffee and grape. Lucky numbers are 25 and 26.
 
This is a nice, easy-going day in which you'll enjoy being with close relatives and other people whose company you treasure. Invite someone over for a cup of coffee so you can have a good natter together, or arrange to visit them. If you're currently involved in making changes to your domestic arrangements, you'll want to jot down some ideas now so keep some paper handy. Auspicious colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 5 and 58.
 
Get busy! You're buzzing with nervous energy and you need to release it, preferably through a combination of physical exercise, social contact and intellectual stimulation. A tall order? Not a bit of it because you'll be able to have all three if you take a tour of the shops, meet some friends or visit somewhere like a museum. Empowering colours are lime and black. Lucky numbers are 2 and 55.
 
You're in the mood to enjoy your home comforts today, preferably in the company of some of the people who make your world go round. It's the perfect day for a family gathering, even if it's very informal or low-key. If you're a good cook you feel inspired to knock up a few masterpieces in the kitchen, much to everyone else's delight. You're in the mood to spoil them. Opportunistic colours are satin and treacle. Lucky numbers are 1 and 50.
 
Do yourself a favour and get together with some friends today. It's exactly what you're in the mood for, especially if the past few days have been a bit much for you. Pour out your troubles to a friend who can help you to put them into perspective. It will also help to take part in a group activity and to feel you're with some like-minded people. Expressive colours are walnut and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 30 and 12.
 
You need plenty of variety and spontaneity today, otherwise you'll quickly feel bored and restless. The trouble is that other people may have different ideas, trying to impose lots of rules and restrictions on you. Try to alter the pace of your day whenever you get the chance, so you're never quite sure what's going to happen next. Don't go out of your way to offend someone simply because you want to see how they react. Not a wise move! Advantageous colours are sapphire blue and ruby red. Lucky numbers are 30 and 58.
 
After yesterday's irritations and upsets, you're in need of some soothing activities. So how about doing something that makes you take a more relaxed view of the world, especially if it introduces you to some beautiful surroundings at the same time? Maybe you could visit an art gallery, museum or a lovely stretch of countryside? Soothing colours are moonlight blue and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 30 and 39.
 
The past couple of days haven't been a lot of fun so you'll be relieved to hear that things have calmed down considerably and today should be a lot easier to cope with. If you need to say sorry for your recent behaviour you'll be happy to do so, even if you're the first to speak up. Once all that's out of the way you're ready to enjoy a restful and relaxing Saturday. You'll be delighted if you can laze about doing as little as possible. Fortunate colours are aubergine and brass. Lucky numbers are 32 and 71.
 
You're in a very sunny mood today, and long may it last. It's great for enjoying yourself, especially if you don't have anything important that's clamouring for your attention and you can give yourself a mini holiday. You're in the mood to take some chances, too, whether that means buying a lottery ticket, placing a bet on a horse or trying your luck with someone you fancy. Opportunistic colours are sienna and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 16 and 11.
 
You need plenty of variety today otherwise you'll soon be climbing the walls. So what do you plan to do? One of the most obvious options is to give your usual Saturday schedule a miss and to do something completely different instead. You should also be choosy about the company you keep because you'll soon be exasperated by anyone who's terribly predictable or almost frighteningly conventional. Uplifting colours are aqua and caramel. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
This is a brilliant day for getting on with chores and making sure that everything in your life is running smoothly. Get to grips with any paperwork that's hanging around and demanding your attention, make any phone calls that are overdue or pay some bills. It's also a good day for having a general tidy-up and chucking out anything you no longer need. Ideal colours are purple and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 2 and 52.
 
Words spoken in haste could come back to haunt you, so be very careful before speaking. You're agitated and annoyed at the moment, but is that really an excuse for taking out your irritation on other people? Maybe you should reserve your ire for the person who deserves it? There could also be a contretemps over someone's jealousy or possessiveness to contend with. What a day! Ideal colours are rich purple and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 3.
 
Your temper is never far from the surface today, making you likely to go off the deep end whenever anyone annoys you. Try to reserve your anger for people who deserve it, rather than using the scattergun approach in which everyone gets peppered with barbed comments. If you want to make an official complaint, you'll do it well provided that you aren't sarcastic. Soothing colours are navy and caramel. Lucky numbers are 11 and 69.
 
You're feeling irritated with certain people and you need to have it out with them rather than bottle up your feelings, even if it will cause a difficult atmosphere for a short while. Use the opportunity to say what you think, but don't turn it into an unfair slanging match or a chance to score points off one another. Ideal colours are teal blue and fawn. Lucky numbers are 13 and 7.
 
Be on your guard when handling money today, because things aren't always what they seem. For instance, you might misread the price tag of something and only realize your mistake when you've got the item home and re-read the bill. Sadly, there's also a chance that someone might try to dupe you, so keep your wits about you. And keep a close eye on your belongings, too. Cautious colours are obsidian and amber. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
There's tension in the air today, especially where a certain person is concerned. Maybe they think they know best and keep giving you unsolicited advice or, quite simply, they're bossing you about. Or are you the one who keeps setting others straight and telling them where they're going wrong? Let's hope not because it will irritate everyone like mad. Receptive colours are avocado and hazel. Lucky numbers are 25 and 13.
 
There's an awkward atmosphere between you and someone today. It's easy to wind each other up and start bickering, and this tension will continue all day unless you can do something to break it. Maybe you should have a proper argument so you can get it out of your system, but avoid being sarcastic or deliberately hurtful because that won't help matters one bit. Positive colours are burgundy and cocoa. Lucky numbers are 12 and 75.
 
There have been problems recently when dealing with people who are older or more influential than you. You've doubted their word or even wondered what on earth they're talking about, and you get a repeat performance of all this today. Once again you'll be at cross purposes with each other, unless you can make a massive effort to spell everything out as clearly as possible. Liberating colours are black and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 22 and 39.
 
Someone's being awfully snappy and crotchety today, using words like weapons, so try not to get in the firing line. If you're the one who's shooting from the hip and giving everyone a hard time, do your best to work out what's bugging you and then do something about it. But you won't have any friends left if you carry on like this! Fortunate colours are caramel and coffee. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
 
Watch out for someone who's being very bossy and dictatorial today. They may not intend to be this way but that's how they're coming across to everyone else. Take care that you don't behave in the same way, especially if you've got a lot on your plate at the moment or you're trying to work towards a deadline. You may feel fraught but that's no excuse for making other people's lives a misery. Fortunate colours are taupe and smoky purple. Lucky numbers are 40 and 3.
 
Be careful what you say or do, especially if you're hoping to keep something under wraps. That's because you could easily blurt out the very facts you had intended to keep secret, much to your annoyance. Do your best to avoid getting drawn into a gossiping session because once again you might let a few cats out of bags without meaning to. Exciting colours are dark red and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 2 and 16.
 
It's been difficult to communicate properly with you-know-who recently but today you get the chance to set the record straight and sort out any misunderstandings between you. Don't be too proud to be the first one to say sorry, even if you secretly don't think it's up to you to do so. You might also have a conversation with someone who's very flaky or unworldly, or who seems to be living on a different planet from the rest of us. Favourable colours are pearl and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 15 and 54.
 
There have been question marks recently over someone's ability to tell you the truth, and they're raised once again today. Should you believe them? Are they deliberately lying to you? Or are they unaware that they're only giving you half the story? You don't yet know but you should tread carefully in the meantime. You should also avoid creating any sort of confusion yourself. Fortunate colours are dark blue and russet. Lucky numbers are 36 and 62.
 
You're blessed with an abundance of energy, so make good use of it. You certainly shouldn't sit around doing nothing unless you have no choice in the matter, because that will soon start to make you feel agitated, restless and irritable. Even going for short walks or running up and down stairs will help to burn off some of your excess energy and keep you sweet-tempered. Inspirational colours are silver and navy. Lucky numbers are 33 and 35.
 
Energy is coursing through your veins and you're raring to go. So what do you intend to do with yourself? You need to keep on the move today, otherwise all that dynamism will turn into burning impatience, followed by a bout of irritation that will quickly lead to spats with others. Watch out if you're driving because you'll be very tempted to go over the speed limit. Favourable colours are silver and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 55.
 
Someone isn't thinking clearly. Maybe they have their head in the clouds or they're distracted by thoughts of something else, so they're with you in body but not in spirit. You won't get much sense of out of them until this mood has passed, so it will be a waste of time expecting them to behave any differently. You're in a spacey mood, though, even if you aren't aware of it, especially if your thoughts keep straying to a certain person. Ideal colours are avocado and ochre. Lucky numbers are 29 and 61.
 
It's a strange day. You're feeling rather agitated and irritable, and all sorts of little things get under your skin. However, you may not be able to lose your temper, perhaps because it's an unfortunate situation or because the other person refuses to take the bait. Get rid of this pent-up angst by doing something therapeutic and physical, otherwise you'll feel tense all day long. Beneficial colours are turquoise and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 38 and 77.
 
You're very impatient about getting what you want, and you don't want to wait for it! This could make you rush straight to the head of the queue if you're out shopping, or you might be very persistent in getting the attention you need from loved ones. Try to keep all this in proportion, otherwise you may behave in a rather demanding and self- centred manner. Beneficial colours are pale pink and pearl. Lucky numbers are 30 and 28.
 
Someone's in a tearing hurry today and they want everyone else to function just as quickly. If you're the person with one eye on the clock, try not to let your impatience get out of hand because then you'll be wasting valuable energy on panicking about getting everything done in time. If you're on the receiving end of someone's chivvying, there's only so much you'll be able to take before you lose your temper. Auspicious colours are red velvet and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 12 and 15.
 
Be patient, because someone isn't thinking straight today. They've got their head in the clouds and it's difficult to get them to come down to earth long enough to make any sense. Maybe they're distracted by thoughts of the past or wrapped up in a family matter. Mind you, you may also be less logical and clued-up than you imagine right now, so avoid important decisions because you might struggle to think them through. Calming colours are pistachio and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 28 and 7.
 
You're in a bit of a rush today, aren't you? Too many things to do at once, which could result in some irritating accidents or mishaps. Be very careful when driving because you could be tempted to go too fast or to take foolish risks. You might also bite someone's head off if they say the wrong thing when you're busy, so try to take things easy. Relaxing colours are smoky quartz and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 18 and 47.
 
Money matters loom large again today, Cancer. You need to think about them in some detail, especially when considering how to finance some of your plans for the future. Right now, it may look as though you don't have enough money to do some of the things you'd like but don't panic yet. You should also avoid going over details time and again, or you'll get completely bogged down in trivia. Fortunate colours are mauve and deep purple. Lucky numbers are 4 and 44.
 
A loved one is in a bit of a state today. They might be very upset about something and need you to stand by with the tissues, or they may have got themselves in a flap and need you to calm them down. Be careful if you're spending money today because you may not realize how much you've parted with until it's too late to do anything about it. Beneficial colours are jade and opal. Lucky numbers are 18 and 28.
 
Mind your Ps and Qs today. It's one of those difficult days when it's hard to say the right thing, especially if you start to feel agitated or annoyed. You might tread on someone's toes by mentioning something they find offensive or accidentally blurt out something that was meant to remain a secret. Be careful if you're with anyone who's very staid or prim because you'll be tempted to say something shocking. Ideal colours are passionfruit and apricot. Lucky numbers are 2 and 51.
 
A certain someone is under a lot of pressure today, making them speak to you rather sharply. Or is the boot on the other foot and are you the one who's verbally lashing out in all directions? If you're trying to keep track of lots of details, try not to get bogged down in minutiae because that will only slow you up and drive you round the bend. Fortunate colours are auburn and lavender. Lucky numbers are 10 and 13.
 
You'll be amazed by the amount of work you're able to do today, especially if everyone lets you get on with it in your own time. You want to give a good example and show that you know what you're doing, so you'll take a lot of time and trouble over whatever you're doing. No one will have to redo it again afterwards! There could also be some good news about a pay rise or work perk. Ideal colours are champagne and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 34 and 48.
 
You long to be with loved ones today and you won't really be happy if you're with anyone else. You'll certainly feel uncomfortable, and possibly even out of your depth, if you have to spend a lot of time with strangers, although luckily you won't give them that impression in the slightest. At some point you'll appreciate being alone, provided that you're in familiar surroundings. Ideal colours are aqua and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 22 and 47.
 
You're in a really cheerful mood, and you're determined to enjoy yourself at every opportunity. Ideally, that should involve being with some good friends or with one special person. Maybe you could go out on the town together, or have a trip to the cinema? You'll also enjoy being with children or doing something that's slightly silly but great fun. Opportunistic colours are raspberry and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
 
You're in an adventurous and daring mood, and are longing to do something about it. Ideally, you should plan some sort of trip or holiday so you've got something to look forward to. What about arranging a long weekend if you can't go on holiday for a while? You're also in the mood to increase your knowledge in some way, so open your mind to new opportunities and ideas. Favourable colours are aquamarine and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 22 and 35.
 
If you've had to neglect your social life recently because your work has kept you so busy, it's about time that you made amends and got in touch with some of your friends. So who do you have in mind? If you have a partner, don't neglect him or her either. How about arranging a special treat for the two of you, so you can have a good time together. Favourable colours are sunflower yellow and black. Lucky numbers are 66 and 15.
 
You need to devote lots of time to the people you love today, or you'll feel you're missing out in some way. If you can't see some of the special people in your life, at least chat to them on the phone or send them a message so they know you're thinking of them. This is also a good day for sorting out your domestic finances, especially if that involves discussing them with the people who share them. Uplifting colours are tan and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 15 and 25.
 
Today you feel happier when you're with other people than when you're by yourself. It's a good day for being sociable and for getting out and about, so try not to spend the entire day slogging away at work. If you can't avoid it, at least arrange to do something nice later in the week. A discussion or negotiation will go well, because you'll be able to voice your opinions without sounding strident or aggressive. Favourable colours are turquoise and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 38 and 23.
 
This promises to be one of the most enjoyable and satisfying days in August for you, so be prepared to make the most of it. It's ideal for broadening your horizons, whether mentally or physically. You might also be offered a wonderful opportunity, even if it doesn't look all that good at first. Ideally, you should do something sociable too, preferably in the company of some of your favourite people. Ideal colours are pale gold and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 2 and 30.
 
This is a fantastic day if you're at work because you'll be keen to accomplish as much as possible. You won't hang around chatting all day long either, because you're eager to give a good impression to others and also to do a really good job. You'll be very pleased about what you've achieved by the time you're ready to pack up and go home. You will be going home, won't you? Favourable colours are plum and jade. Lucky numbers are 33 and 43.
 
You aren't always very good at showing your feelings because sometimes open displays of affection can make you embarrassed and uncomfortable. But today you're ready and willing to tell someone how you feel about them. You're also prepared to talk about topics that you usually keep to yourself, especially if you consider them to be private or too important to reveal to just anyone. Expressive colours are dusky pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 12 and 25.
 
If you haven't yet started to revive your social life, get cracking today. It's great for mixing with people who are on the same wavelength as you, whether they're friends, neighbours or close family. It will also do you good to have a change of scene at some point, especially if you've been stuck in the same place for the past couple of weeks. Advantageous colours are hazel and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 46.
 
You need to work out a simple equation, comparing the amount of effort you put into your activities with the amount of satisfaction you get out of them. If you feel you have nothing to show for all your efforts then you must decide what you're going to do about it. You may find that the answer is much simpler than you first imagine. Ideal colours are mulberry and cream. Lucky numbers are 2 and 5.
 
The coming four weeks will be a great time for concentrating on your close and intimate relationships, and doing what you can to make them stronger and more satisfying. You might even embark on an important new relationship between now and late September, in which case it will have a transformative impact on you. Careful colours are marigold and auburn. Lucky numbers are 37 and 10.
 
The focus has been on your personal life during the past four weeks but it starts to shift from today, encouraging you to concentrate on your values and priorities in life during the coming month. This is an excellent time to bolster your financial security, provided that you don't let this get out of control and make you think money is the be- all and end-all. Insightful colours are sky blue and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 27 and 20.
 
The astrological accent has been on finance for the past four weeks, as you know only too well, so I'm happy to report that things start to change from today. You're now being given the chance to get out and about a bit, and to think of other things besides how much or how little money you've got to your name. Pick up the phone and start arranging to see friends. You deserve some light relief! Auspicious colours are peacock blue and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 38.
 
You often prefer to stick with the things you know rather than to branch out in new directions, but you start to feel a lot more adventurous than usual from today and this state will continue for the coming four weeks. It will be a wonderful opportunity to try something new for a change, and it could work out a lot better than you were expecting. Good luck! Positive colours are marmalade and jet black. Lucky numbers are 23 and 69.
 
Good news! You can look forward to lots of fun between now and this time next month, especially when you're with some of your favourite people. Even if you have plenty of other commitments, you'll feel cheated if you can't devote plenty of time to leisure activities and your social life. It's a wonderful excuse to throw a party or a big get- together, and to pull out all the stops. Fortunate colours are mustard yellow and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 7 and 31.
 
You start to retreat into your shell today and you'll remain there for the next four weeks. You'll want to emerge every now and then, of course, but overall you'll prefer to keep a low profile and take life easy. Look on the coming month as an opportunity to recharge your batteries, both emotionally and physically, and also to take stock of where you are in your life. Inspirational colours are fawn and avocado. Lucky numbers are 29 and 50.
 
You've been wrapped up in work matters for most of the month but from today your focus starts to shift to your relationships.

It will also be a good time to get involved in teamwork, whether it's temporary or permanent. Empowering colours are shimmering blue and white quartz. Lucky numbers are 1 and 60.
 
If you're a typical Gemini you're usually very outgoing and sociable, but during the next four weeks you'll much prefer staying close to home so you can be with your nearest and dearest.

Prosperous colours are cinnamon and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 26.
 
There has been a strong emphasis on your career and status recently but from today you start to become more interested in your long-term hopes and dreams.

It will also be good for spending time with friends and other kindred spirits. Creative colours are spearmint and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 4 and 76.
 
From today you enter a month-long phase in which you need to concentrate on your goals and objectives.

You aren't always very happy about working in the background, out of the limelight, but that's exactly what you've got to put up with between now and late September.

Fortunate colours are peach and coffee. Lucky numbers are 17 and 74.
 
You have a lot to say for yourself today, so get together with someone who's happy to listen to you.

If you've got the money you'll be interested in spending it on items that will improve your health in some way. Uplifting colours are bright red and purple. Lucky numbers are 40 and 16.
 
Someone dear to your heart is a joy to be around. They'll blossom in your company, as you will in theirs, and things will go swimmingly between you.

Then you'll be much more demanding and insistent, leading to some tricky moments. Auspicious colours are marmalade and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 21 and 20.
 
A certain person is high maintenance today. They may not intend to be like this but they want lots of your attention and they'll become petulant if they don't get it. But don't worry because it won't be nearly such a tricky day as it was yesterday. Be prepared to do some negotiating if you can't give this person your undivided attention. Perhaps you should arrange to do something nice with them later in the week if you can't manage it today? Beneficial colours are black and crimson. Lucky numbers are 23 and 67.
 
You're in the mood to increase your knowledge of the world today. You might do this by burying your nose in a book, watching a TV documentary or by visiting a museum or somewhere else that makes you think.

Favourable colours are violet and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 18.
 
If you've been thinking about moving house or doing up your current home, this is an excellent day for checking that things are running smoothly or deciding what your options are.

Favourable colours are fawn and emerald. Lucky numbers are 36 and 16.
 
Your willpower has deserted you, leaving you open to every temptation under the sun. Speaking of which, you may decide to forget about the chores and spend the day lying in the sunshine.

Communicative colours are nutmeg and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 4 and 58.
 
This is a fabulous day for having a serious chat with someone, especially if you're prepared to touch on topics that are usually considered to be taboo or too sensitive to mention.

Auspicious colours are lemon and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 12 and 64.
 
If you're currently trying to restore the peace with a certain someone, this is a good day for making progress. Be practical and rational, as open displays of emotion won't help your cause. This should be easy for you because you're feeling quite cool, calm and collected. Negotiations go well because you'll be able to keep your head. Auspicious colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 7 and 5.
 
Let's hope you haven't got much to do today because a certain person wants to get in touch with you. And when they do it will be difficult to get away from them because they're in quite a needy mood. It's nothing to worry about but it will help to be aware of what's going on. If you can't spare the time for them today you'll have to arrange to see them later in the week, otherwise you'll be racked with guilt. Auspicious colours are plum and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 21 and 44.
 
Make the most of your inquisitive mind today by reading an interesting book, watching a fascinating programme on the TV or surfing the web until you can barely see straight.

Insightful colours are crimson and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 12 and 25.
 
You're in a very practical and efficient mood today, making you want to do the very best you can at whatever you tackle.

It's an excellent day for keeping track of small details and for doing such things as sorting through papers or backing up all the files on your computer. Liberating colours are dark purple and mango. Lucky numbers are 33 and 14.
 
This is a nice day because you're finding it so easy to get on well with other people. Even if you don't particularly like them, you'll still find something to chat about with them. If you have some spare time you'll enjoy becoming engrossed in a fascinating television programme or a book that you can't put down. It will give you lots of food for thought. Ideal colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 38 and 18.
 
A loved one is a thorn in your side today. They're taking everything very seriously and have a tendency to turn minor niggles into major dramas. Do your best to avoid rising to the bait and becoming equally overwrought, because there'll be no stopping you once that happens. It may help to make yourself scarce for a while, so you can calm down. Auspicious colours are smoky quartz and copper. Lucky numbers are 3 and 60.
 
Everything has extra intensity and meaning for you today, so you're taking it more seriously than usual. This could lead to some important encounters with people in which you seem to be communicating on a deeper level than normal, but it also has a tendency to make you slightly touchy and huffy. Try not to brood on slights or pointed remarks that probably don't really exist. Dynamic colours are oyster and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 28 and 53.
 
Someone seems to think they deserve special treatment, even if you don't agree with them. They'll soon make a fuss if they don't get what they want, but quite honestly they're being such a pain that you're determined to spike their guns and not give them the satisfaction of having things all their own way. Sounds as though you'd better make yourself scarce for a while! Harmonious colours are strawberry and white. Lucky numbers are 34 and 78.
 
Someone's feelings are very intense and passionate today, which is great up to a point. However, they could easily go over the top and work themselves up into a lather, especially if they're feeling vulnerable or haunted by things that happened in the past. Alternatively, you might be the one who's feeling all churned up, in which case you should release your emotions with care. Expressive colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 1 and 46.
 
Life has been pretty good over the past few days but it takes a slight downturn today. That's because you're feeling rather hassled and stressed, especially if you've got lots of work to do or you're coping with the burden of someone else's expectations of you. Try to rise above all this otherwise you'll become very intense and bad-tempered. Fortunate colours are terracotta and dark green. Lucky numbers are 1 and 24.
 
Domestic problems loom large today, so take care. Unfortunately, it's one of those days when the better you know someone, the more likely they are to get under your skin. You may also be stewing about something that happened in the past but which you've never got over and which has now come back to haunt you. But what's the point of brooding about it? Uplifting colours are chocolate and gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 60.
 
Life is like a rollercoaster today because it's full of ups and downs. Do your best not to make the day more emotionally draining than it needs to be, so try not to turn any little glitches into major dramas. You should also do your best not to boss a loved one around because they won't take kindly to such behaviour and will give as good as they get. Positive colours are rose quartz and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
A certain person is very forceful, making it uncomfortable to be around them for long. They have very strong ideas about how things should be and they're keen to tell you all about them. This might be all right for a while but it will soon start to pall, especially if there are reasons why you can't tell them to take a running jump. Try changing the subject. Receptive colours are rich purple and avocado. Lucky numbers are 20 and 52.
 
You feel things very intensely today and you're taking them more seriously than usual and placing too much emphasis on them. Do your best to keep matters in proportion, otherwise you'll wear yourself out by getting in a state about all sorts of trivial details. There could also be a tense atmosphere with an older relative or a boss, which won't help. Soothing colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 39 and 51.
 
Watch out for someone who's being bossy and dictatorial. They obviously think they know best and they can't understand why you don't agree with them. But the simple fact is that you don't, and that you resent the way they're trying to control you. Try to defuse the situation with some gentle humour, but if that fails you may have to adopt a tougher strategy. Prosperous colours are dark green and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 36 and 18.
 
A certain someone is being rather bossy and dictatorial today. They obviously think they know best, although you'd beg to differ. Don't let this get to you because they probably mean well, even if they are being incredibly irritating. You should also be wary of giving someone your advice when they haven't asked for it, especially if it's connected with their friends or the way they spend their money. Lively colours are mahogany and oak. Lucky numbers are 30 and 31.
 
Let's get something straight, Scorpio. The fact that you love someone doesn't give you the right to tell them how to lead their life or what to spend their money on, even if you are concerned about them at the moment. Unfortunately, you're going to have to bite your lip when you observe their current antics, unless you don't mind annoying them and watching them flounce off in a huff. Positive colours are jade and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 10 and 51.
 
This is an ideal day for spending some time and money on your home in order to improve it in some way.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 69.
 
It's a fabulous day for being with some of the people you care about. Although you'll be perfectly polite to people who aren't so important to you, you'll definitely be happiest when you're with close friends and family.

Ideal colours are nutmeg and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 20 and 67.
 
Take the opportunity to build a strong rapport with a neighbour or loved one today, so your relationship can deepen. You might have to give this person your moral support, or you may do them a favour which proves how much you care about them. If your relationship is still in its early stages, what happens between you now will help to cement and strengthen it. Soothing colours are blueberry and brass. Lucky numbers are 19 and 18.
 
This is a great day for discovering who your friends and supporters are. Get together with people you know you can trust so you can enjoy their company.

Friends are even more important to you than usual today, so let them know how you feel. A simple declaration of affection will help to strengthen the bonds between you.

This is the perfect day for building on the existing foundations of a relationship to make it stronger than ever.

Try to spend time today with someone whose company you really value. They'll help you feel good about yourself, especially if you've felt knocked about by the events of the past few days.

Communicative colours are blackberry and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 14 and 69.
 
You need a little emotional comfort today and the good news is that a certain person is only too happy to supply it.

If you feel like going shopping you'll enjoy tracking down items that will make your home more attractive, comfy and cosy. Ambitious colours are cocoa and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 36 and 20.
 
It's a brilliant day for spending money, because you won't want to squander it on silly items or things that aren't worth anything. Instead, you're looking for bargains and also for things that will be practical and hard-wearing. If you're taking your partner with you, try to get as much pleasure as possible from the whole experience rather than treat it as a necessary but tedious chore. Expressive colours are jade and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 8.
 
Someone is ready to give you their valuable moral support today, so grab it when it's offered to you. You'll really appreciate knowing that this person is on your side and that they're rooting for you, especially if you've been feeling a bit beleaguered recently. It's also a super day for getting in touch with older relatives because you'll enjoy being with them. Auspicious colours are coffee and lavender. Lucky numbers are 9 and 17.
 
You can really count on a certain someone today. They're offering you their support, and it's worth a lot. They'll also give you some good advice but they won't ram it down your throat.

This is a marvellous day for spending time and effort on things or people that you value. For instance, you might decide to spoil a special person by taking them out to lunch or buying them a present. Or you might buy a beautiful antique that you know will gain in value over the years while giving you lots of pleasure. As long as you're sensible there's little danger of you wasting your money right now. Ideal colours are spearmint and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 29 and 67.
 
During the coming fortnight you'll be reminded that the truth can be very subjective. You might get caught up in a situation which is coloured every shade of grey rather than being black and white, making it difficult to say what's right and what's wrong. This may even lead to you having to revise a cherished belief or long-held opinion in the face of the evidence. Advantageous colours are pineapple and cocoa. Lucky numbers are 6 and 38.
 
Today's Full Moon places the accent heavily on your relationships during the next two weeks. This means you might weather a couple of minor storms with some of the people in your life.

There could also be a temporary parting of the ways with one person. Auspicious colours are passionfruit and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 39 and 36.
 
Today's Full Moon is urging you to tidy up any loose ends in your friendships. So what exactly does this entail?

You may also revise your opinion of a particular friend. Stabilising colours are bright red and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 2 and 41.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on your home and family life during the next two weeks.

You may also have to juggle the twin demands of your work and your home life, which won't be easy. Try to find some middle ground rather than swinging from one extreme to the other and then back again. Beneficial colours are pastel pink and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 26 and 13.
 
If you've been pushing worries and anxieties to the back of your mind, today's Full Moon will root them out during the coming fortnight and force you to do something about them. The first step is to look at them constructively and to work out what you can do to alleviate them. If you can do something, then get on with it. If you can't, what's the point of worrying? It won't make the situation any better and it will make you feel a whole lot worse. Fortunate colours are tan and ice. Lucky numbers are 16 and 51.
 
Today's Full Moon picks up yesterday's financial theme, and tells you what you need to concentrate on during the coming two weeks. Yes, it's money!

Beneficial colours are ivory and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 20 and 72.
 
If things have been a bit tricky with a neighbour or close relative recently, today's Full Moon is telling you to do something about it.

Alternatively, it's not be too late to adopt the diplomatic approach and to negotiate your way out of the current impasse. Fortunate colours are vanilla and olive. Lucky numbers are 34 and 65.
 
There's a Full Moon today, and it's going to affect your career and long-term goals during the next two weeks.

Lucky numbers are 26 and 61.
 
If you're still worried about the gulf between you and you-know- who, today's Full Moon will either make it vanish entirely or raise the ante so you feel you've got to do something about it.

Lucky numbers are 28 and 62.

Lucky numbers are 39 and 3.
 
Today's Full Moon triggers a crisis in a close relationship. If you're honest you'll admit that you've felt it coming for days and it's a relief to finally have it out in the open.

You can't pin all the blame on other people. Fortunate colours are pastel pink and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 35 and 16.
 
There's a low-key atmosphere today, which isn't very uplifting. It's making you feel lonely and neglected, and you may also worry about what's going on between you. The answer is probably that nothing is wrong, it's simply one of those days when either one or both of you needs to be left alone, or is fully occupied with other activities. Don't make a big fuss out of something that is probably very minor. Harmonious colours are aqua and plum. Lucky numbers are 9 and 15.
 
Someone got out of bed on the wrong side this morning, as you'll soon discover when you run up against them. They're like a bear with a sore head, especially if they think no one is taking any notice of them or they can't get their own way.

Lucky numbers are 38 and 25.
 
A loved one is rather down in the mouth today. Maybe things aren't going well for them and they're feeling sorry for themselves, or perhaps they're always a bit miserable.

If you're with the rest of the family you could get rather agitated or impatient with them, especially if you think they aren't pulling their weight or they can't get themselves organized. Vibrant colours are peach blossom and dark green. Lucky numbers are 38 and 24.
 
Beware of getting involved in discussions about anything religious today because you'll be arguing the toss until the cows come home.

Come on, Gemini, does it really matter? Favourable colours are avocado and caramel. Lucky numbers are 18 and 15.
 
Do your best to keep a sense of perspective today otherwise you'll soon get bogged down in lots of petty details that start to make your head hurt after a while.

Give yourself plenty of breaks from whatever you're doing so you can clear your head. Fortunate colours are violet and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 26 and 14.
 
It's easy to fly off the handle today, especially if you have lots of work and you keep being interrupted or you can't concentrate for some reason.

If there have been problems or muddles over some complicated paperwork, spend today trying to sort everything out. Fortunate colours are russet and sage green. Lucky numbers are 12 and 74.
 
It's one of those days when you feel rather downbeat and it's hard to get on with the people around you. Maybe you feel they're being too harsh and strict with you, or perhaps it's the other way round and you're the one who's behaving like an old-fashioned schoolteacher. It doesn't help that you're worried about a certain person, especially if there's currently an emotional gulf between you. Fortunate colours are fire engine red and snow white. Lucky numbers are 6 and 24.
 
Money worries threaten to put a crimp in your day. You might be waiting for a cheque or payment that hasn't arrived, or you could be faced with a big bill and be left wondering how on earth you're going to pay it. Try not to get bogged down in fretting about things you can't change and concentrate instead on those things you can do something about. Insightful colours are crimson and sable. Lucky numbers are 15 and 22.
 
If you're feeling romantic, you'll have a wonderful time with your special person; spoil them. You're such a softie at the moment Pisces, it's amazing you don't melt in the sunshine.

Fabulous colours are ultramarine and sienna. Lucky numbers are 17 and 65.
 
You aren't very patient today, so be warned. Almost before you know what's happening, you might find that you've bitten someone's head off or been rude to them.

It may be better to be honest! Soothing colours are aqua and coffee. Lucky numbers are 31 and 56.
 
The key to happy partnerships between now and mid September is to do your utmost to meet others halfway.

Passionate colours are pineapple and parchment. Lucky numbers are 18 and 53.
 
This promises to be one of the most enjoyable days in the whole of August, because you're feeling so optimistic and cheerful.

So don't get carried away! Ideal colours are vermilion and white. Lucky numbers are 5 and 54.
 
Life is suddenly starting to feel so much better that you can hardly believe it. Today, you see light at the end of the long, dark tunnel you've been travelling recently with a certain person.

Exuberant colours are silvery green and peach. Lucky numbers are 9 and 35.
 
Your working relationships will go well during the coming four weeks, so it's going to be a great time for enjoying the company of colleagues and customers.

Calming colours are mauve and gold. Lucky numbers are 32 and 11.
 
During the next few weeks you'll want to devote a lot of enjoyment to the things and people that make your world go round.

Lucky numbers are 62 and 16.
 
You aren't always comfortable with romance because it can make you feel awkward and embarrassed, but it's right up your street during the next few weeks. You might even surprise yourself at times!

Beneficial colours are beige and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 9 and 64.
 
You're brimming with hope and optimism today. Even if things don't work out in quite the way you hoped, at least you can enjoy the anticipation and expectation of most of your dreams coming true.

If you're house-hunting at the moment you can get excited about your prospects of finding a new home today.

You should also avoid believing everything that people tell you in case some of it turns out to be wrong. Fortunate colours are sky blue and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 34 and 6.
 
Friends, neighbours and close relatives have a lot to offer today, not only in terms of what they say but what they do.

Be careful when spending money because you might part with more of it than you intended. Healing colours are white and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 18.
 
Try to spend some time with older friends and relatives during the next few weeks. You'll really value their company and get a lot out of talking to them.

If you've been struggling with the recent communications problems that have plagued your job, your relationship with older friends and relatives, and your dealings with bureaucracy, the good news is that everything starts to improve from today.

Fortunate colours are charcoal grey and ochre. Lucky numbers are 22 and 57.
 
You'll be pleased to hear that all those communication problems you've been dealing with lately start to melt away today.

This is a wonderful day for taking off on holiday, whether you arranged it ages ago or you're doing it on the spur of the moment, because it's exactly what you're in the mood for. But if you're staying put at home you'll still need some changes of scene to stop you getting stale. Favourable colours are mushroom and indigo. Lucky numbers are 15 and 75.
 
This is a fabulous day for enjoying yourself, especially if you're still feeling frazzled after the tensions of last week.

Take your enjoyment where you find it because it's all around you right now. Fortunate colours are pastel green and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 20 and 71.
 
This is a great day for being sociable, so try to mix with other people whenever you get the chance. You'll enjoy being with kindred spirits, especially if you already know them well.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 70.
 
This is a great day for shopping, especially if you want to buy items that will grow in value, enhance your status or which you need for your job.

Alternatively, you might benefit from an older person's generosity. Auspicious colours are ruby red and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 38 and 53.

Lucky numbers are 4 and 37.
 
Peace is about to break out, so encourage it by being as friendly and easy-going as possible. Let loved ones talk about whatever is important to them right now, and make an effort to listen.

Lucky numbers are 13 and 69.

You're in a hard-working and industrious mood today, and will take pleasure in doing things to the best of your ability.

If you've been thinking about changing jobs, you'll get a better idea of what you should be looking for. Ideal colours are hazelnut and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
 
You need plenty of variety today, or you'll become fed up and bored. It won't help if you're with members of the family who formed set opinions of you when you were in nappies and who haven't changed their minds since. Any insistence on treating you like a child won't help your mood one bit. So at some point you'll need to do something that reminds you of who you are now, even if others don't like it. Favourable colours are terracotta and silver. Lucky numbers are 16 and 9.
 
The emphasis is on personal change at the moment and this is a fantastic day for making that happen.

You're drawn to the unusual today, especially if you see it in a shop or on an internet site.

Some of these purchases could turn out to be great fun or highly innovative, but they may also be rather expensive. Wonderful colours are snow white and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 75.

Careful colours are pin and rose. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
You're feeling more resilient and capable today, and you're determined to have as good a time as possible.

You're in a very enterprising mood and you want to do something worthwhile with it. You're also feeling quite adventurous, so how about experimenting a little and trying something different from usual?

Prosperous colours are violet and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 14 and 42.
 
You long to be a free spirit today, and it shouldn't be too difficult to achieve.

If you're going out with friends you want them to be lively and good fun. You certainly don't want to be with anyone who's restrictive or boring. Liberating colours are peacock blue and sunshine yellow. Lucky numbers are 39 and 22.
 
You need to let off steam today, especially after what happened yesterday.

This will have a remarkable impact on your mood, making you feel so much better. Positive colours are coffee and lemon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 20.
 
You need to feel that you're a free spirit today. You certainly don't want to be restricted in any way, whether through circumstance or as the result of a particular relationship.

Luckily, this should be quite easy at the moment, but even so you should respect the rights of others to go their own way as well. Beneficial colours are aubergine and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 38 and 76.
 
You need plenty of variety and spontaneity in your life today, otherwise you'll get bored and restless. Although you don't always feel comfortable around people who are very unconventional, you're more in the mood for them today than usual. You also need to demonstrate your own individuality rather than be one of the crowd. Auspicious colours are mahogany and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 28 and 3.
 
The problems of the past couple of days really come to a head, leaving you tense and fraught. It looks as though a blazing row is almost inevitable, in which case you should try to get it out of the way sooner rather than later, so you don't have it hanging over you all day long. Have your say but don't exaggerate or start throwing insults around. Ideal colours are peach and avocado. Lucky numbers are 1 and 20.
 
Watch what you say today because it will be very easy to get heated and say the wrong thing. Unfortunately you could really hurt someone's feelings unless you manage to stop yourself in time. You might also put your foot in it when talking to someone about topics that they feel very sensitive about. Try to fit in some physical exercise because this will help you to work off any angst or irritation you're feeling. Auspicious colours are violet and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 24 and 42.
 
Once again you're in a rather tetchy mood, and ready to lash out whenever you feel that someone's getting at you. You're using words like weapons, but do you have any idea how sharp and penetrating some of your comments can be? Think before you speak or at least apologize if you hurt someone's feelings by being too critical. Positive colours are mushroom and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 24 and 6.
 
Once again there's a lot of tension in the air, especially when dealing with loved ones. It's hard to keep the peace with them, either because they're spoiling for a row or you are. You're also feeling defensive and over-sensitive, so you're quite likely to take innocent comments the wrong way. Calm down! Insightful colours are fudge and lime. Lucky numbers are 12 and 33.
 
A certain someone is on the warpath today, so woe betide you if you get on the wrong side of them. Be prepared for a dressing-down or some uncomfortable home truths. If you're upset about something, get it off your chest, otherwise it will eat away at you and make you difficult company. Communicative colours are dove grey and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 40 and 20.
 
It's time to clear the air! The atmosphere is still strained between you and certain people, so you need to do something constructive about it. The best way to do this is to have it out and for everyone to have their say, otherwise the level of tension between you will continue to rise. Try not to use withering sarcasm as a weapon because it won't help one bit. Expansive colours are silvery pink and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 60.
 
There's a lot of tension between you and a special person; one of you wants to impose restrictions or rules on the other one, or perhaps you've fallen out over an issue that you both feel very strongly about. It's a good idea to clear the air but do your best to make this short and sharp, rather than allowing the row to drag on and on and on. Expressive colours are pale pink and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 33 and 11.
 
Someone's being very touchy and tetchy today, so it might be a good idea to keep out of their way. Or are you the one who's over- reacting and ready to lose your temper at the drop of a hat? Although you need to get things off your chest, it won't help to let the arguments drag on for too long. Try to make them short and sweet - and don't say things in anger that you'll regret when you've calmed down. Passionate colours are emerald and cream. Lucky numbers are 15 and 1.
 
If the atmosphere was tense yesterday it's even more tricky today. It looks as though the only way to solve the problem is to have a big row so you can clear the air and find out exactly what's going on. But beware of a tendency to have the final word because that will simply prolong the argument and make it get increasingly unpleasant. Better to say what needs to be said and then change the subject. Positive colours are avocado and tan. Lucky numbers are 7 and 16.
 
Someone's shooting from the hip today, making it difficult to be around them for long without catching a few verbal bullets. What's got into them, anyway, and is it anything to do with you? If you are provoking this person in some way it would be far better to realize what you're doing and to admit it than to pretend that it's all their fault. Particular problem areas right now are money, sex and plans for the future, so go carefully. Soothing colours are cocoa and parchment. Lucky numbers are 3 and 72.
 
A way with words today is not one that you like very much. You don't appreciate what you're hearing. Sly digs are designed to make you feel uncomfortable or is someone looking for an argument and wanting you to rise to the bait. You long to give them a piece of your mind, but will it just make matters worse? Empowering colours are teal and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 26.
 
You aren't having a very easy time of it at the moment, Pisces, and today is no exception. Bogged down by chores and duties, you long to cut loose and do something fun instead. Maybe you could come to some sort of compromise, so you can do some work and then enjoy yourself afterwards. Why not ask someone to give you a hand? Advantageous colours are vanilla and indigo. Lucky numbers are 24 and 11.
 
There's no knowing what a certain person might get up to today, so be prepared. Not that you need to worry because they're unlikely to do anything really awful. You may also do things that take others by surprise, especially if you feel the need to be spontaneous and to drop your guard a little. It will help to get lots of variety into the day so you don't have a chance to feel bored. Expressive colours are fawn and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 33.
 
You're looking for some fun and excitement today. You aren't interested in doing things that are boringly predictable and you won't be very keen on spending time with anyone who's a stick-in-the-mud, either. Instead, you'll be happiest if you can do things on the spur of the moment. Your mood is quite erratic, too. Other people will notice but you might not. Dynamic colours are blood red and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 29 and 59.
 
Relationships aren't as easy as they could be right now, and brings one of those scratchy and temperamental days in which you're likely to fall out with all and sundry. Is it their fault? Is it your fault? It doesn't really matter, because what's important is the way you behave and deal with your anger. Don't go off the deep end unless it's really necessary. Powerful colours are dark gold and beige. Lucky numbers are 37 and 25.
 
Someone is in a tearing hurry today, making it difficult to spend much time with them because they keep looking at their watch or trying to chivvy you along. They may also be spoiling for a fight, especially if things haven't been going well for them lately. If you start to feel edgy too, it will help to do something physical and therapeutic, such as going for a jog or kicking a football about. Energising colours are lavender and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 8 and 6.
 
Easy does it. You're in a very impatient and irritable state today, making you likely to blow your top whenever anyone provokes you or winds you up. So what's bugging you? Maybe you've got too much work to do in too little time, or you aren't feeling very well and it's making you behave like a bear with a sore head. Be careful when handling hot or sharp objects because you could be rather accident-prone, especially if you're still fuming. Beneficial colours are peach and opal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 13.
 
This is another difficult day because yet again you feel snowed under with work and other chores. You may also have the added complication of having to listen to someone's unhelpful or sarcastic comments about what you did or didn't manage to do yesterday. You need to stand up for yourself, but try to avoid getting involved in a bitching session or petty slanging match. Fortunate colours are tangerine and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 32 and 39.
 
You're feeling the strain after yesterday's doom and gloom and you're certainly in a tense mood. You may even be distinctly scratchy and sharp with certain people, especially if they trample over your feelings or are being deliberately obtuse and insensitive. If necessary have an argument but don't let it drag on too long, and don't say hurtful things you don't mean. Soothing colours are silver and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 39 and 78.
 
You need some light relief, especially if yesterday felt like a marathon. Let yourself do things spontaneously rather than because they're expected of you. Why not let your hair down and have some fun? You're in a very inventive mood today, so dream up exciting ways to spend the weekend, especially if they involve travel. Sociable colours are burgundy and basalt. Lucky numbers are 35 and 21.
 
If you're a typical Arien you already know that you've got quite a temper, and it's certainly on show today. What's wrong?

Be careful when handling financial matters because they'll make you especially impatient and irritable. Adventurous colours are shades and grape. Lucky numbers are 8 and 78.
 
A certain someone needs careful handling today because they're in such a filthy mood. Maybe they're throwing their weight around and being bossy, or perhaps they're being really impatient and think everyone else is being too slow. If you don't know who this person is, it means there's a strong chance that it's you. If so, what's got into you and how can you fix it? Beneficial colours are raspberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 17 and 30.
 
Look after yourself today because you don't have much energy or self-confidence. You'd like to crawl back to bed and pull the covers over your head, but you probably can't, so put a brave face on things. Do yourself a favour and postpone any activities that aren't strictly necessary, and keep out of the way of anyone who'll take advantage of your miserable mood. Beneficial colours are lemon and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 36 and 16.
 
Someone is being very sweet today but they're also very flaky and distracted. That's fine if you aren't relying on them to do anything important but it could cause problems if they're supposed to be sorting out a financial matter or spending money on your behalf. However, they're also feeling very sensitive so you'll have to choose your words carefully if you want to tell them to wait until they have their feet on the ground again. Active colours are silvery grey and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 23 and 53.
 
Do you feel as though you've got the cares of the world on your shoulders? You've lots of work to do and you're struggling to get it all done in time.

Advantageous colours are saffron and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 9 and 30.
 
You're feeling impoverished, emotionally or financially. Something seems to be lacking in your life, and it's making you miserable. Try not to imagine that things are worse than they really are, because that will be a recipe for making yourself utterly miserable and also casting a damper over the mood of everyone around you. Expressive colours are lime and brass. Lucky numbers are 31 and 72.
 
There's an emotional gulf between you and certain people today, making you feel miserable and out on a limb. Try not to make too much of the whole incident because it will soon blow over. It's even better for you to disappear by yourself for a while, so you can sort things out in your own mind. But make sure everyone knows and understands what you're doing. Revealing colours are charcoal and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 9 and 41.
 
It feels as though you're facing a losing battle today. Maybe you've got too much work to do and you don't know where to start, you're waiting for someone else to give you the green light about something but they're being very slow about it, or your energy is draining away by the second. Concentrate on the priorities and do what you can, then give yourself a break. Favourable colours are bright red and green. Lucky numbers are 6 and 9.
 
Life gets rather serious today, putting you in a downbeat mood. Try not to look on the gloomy side or be pessimistic, as that won't do you much good. If you feel bogged down by duties and responsibilities, don't be worried about how you're going to do everything that's expected of you. Why not delegate some of it? Bold colours are passionfruit and sable. Lucky numbers are 28 and 51.
 
A loved one goes all chilly and distant on you today, leaving you wondering what they're playing at. Try not to over-react or tell yourself that this is the end of your relationship, because it's highly likely that it's only a temporary blip and things will soon get back to normal. The experience may make you realize how dependent you are on this person, whether you're pleased about that or not. Positive colours are opal and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 17 and 41.
 
The emotional atmosphere is rather muted today. You might feel sidelined if a loved one has other things to do besides seeing you, or there could be an air of constraint between you. Try not to impose your opinions on other people, especially if you disapprove of the way they're behaving. This isn't the day for giving someone a finger-wagging, unless you don't mind alienating them completely. Advantageous colours are jasmine and sepia. Lucky numbers are 31 and 67.
 
Look after yourself because you're feeling rather vulnerable today. Maybe someone's getting to you and putting you on the defensive, or perhaps you feel overwhelmed by worries about a loved one. If you're expected to make a domestic decision you'll feel anxious about it. Don't give yourself such a hard time, Leo! Things are not nearly as bad as they seem. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 15 and 65.
 
You feel rather down in the mouth today, and it shows. So what's wrong? Maybe you're worried about something and it's weighing on your mind or perhaps you're concerned about an ethical question. But whatever's wrong, brooding about it won't help matters. Do what you can to solve the problem and then put it out of your mind and do something that makes you feel good. Stabilising colours are auburn and mustard. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
 
Not surprisingly, you're feeling worn out after yesterday's dramas and you need to catch your breath. Ideally, you should do this in your own time and by yourself, because you aren't yet feeling up to being madly sociable. If you have no choice in the matter and have got to mix with others, do your best to be friendly and relaxed. Communicative colours are ivory and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 5 and 6.
 
You have a strong sense of responsibility today and it could start to wear you down after a while. For instance, you might have a lot of work to tackle and feel that you can't relax even for five minutes because you simply can't spare the time. This will end up being self- defeating because you'll get more and more tired. So pace yourself and accept that you can't work miracles, even if you'd like to. Fortunate colours are dark green and caramel. Lucky numbers are 36 and 26.
 
Money is a slight problem today. It's not a huge disaster, so don't over-react, but it could definitely cast a dampener over the day's proceedings. For instance, if you want to go out on the town you might decide you can't really afford it or you've got to scale down your plans. There could also be a slight coolness between you and a friend, although you may not be able to put your finger on what's wrong. Expressive colours are plum and gold. Lucky numbers are 20 and 18.
 
There's a lot of emotional tension in the air today. This always makes you uncomfortable because you don't really know how to deal with it, and today is no exception. It won't help to over-react, so try to keep your cool. Nevertheless, you can't help feeling stirred up and agitated by what's going on around you. It would be better to express all this rather than bottle it up and let it leak out in unhelpful ways, such as being spiky or manipulative without realizing it. Insightful colours are spring green and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 3 and 51.
 
It's a demanding day emotionally, because a certain person wants a lot from you. Plenty of devotion for a start, plus your undivided attention. The fact is that it will be difficult to meet this person's requirements, whatever they happen to be. In fact you may not even want to, if you feel you're being suffocated or controlled. Feeling all this will be one thing, but having the guts to say it will be quite another. Positive colours are fawn and jade. Lucky numbers are 18 and 8.
 
The emotional temperature rises by several degrees, leading to a hot-house atmosphere in which things are said in the heat of the moment that are bitterly regretted when everyone's calmed down again. Try not to make things worse by dredging up old scores or being deliberately spiteful or unkind, even though it may be tempting at the time. Vibrant colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 20 and 33.
 
Once again you're interested in your hopes and plans for the future. You're really fired up with enthusiasm for them at the moment and you want to give them as much time as possible while you're in the mood. If so, this is a good opportunity to sort out your timing and also to check that you're feeling wholehearted about your plans. If you want to change any of them you'll get the chance to do that from next week. Fortunate colours are sky blue and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 15 and 52.
 
You're feeling much more light-hearted than you were yesterday, so it's a good day for getting some light relief and letting your hair down a little. Even so, you still won't want to be with anyone who's only got fluff for brains, because you'll soon tire of their company. So get together with people who make you think, but who also make you laugh. Harmonious colours are fuchsia and lime. Lucky numbers are 6 and 40.
 
Feelings run high today, caused by an intensely emotional atmosphere. The trouble is that there's a conflict between one person's need to be independent and another person's desire to be controlling and possessive. They don't mix and the results will be hard to cope with. Don't give into the temptation to be manipulative or demanding, otherwise you'll make yourself very unpopular. Harmonious colours are indigo and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 40 and 39.
 
After the uncertainties of the past couple of days, you're ready to make commitments and get things back on track. This is an excellent day for being practical and efficient, and for making things happen. If you're at work, you'll feel you've achieved a lot and you could win the approval of a boss or superior. Propitious colours are mango and banana. Lucky numbers are 31 and 9.
 
You may love you-know-who dearly but they're driving you crazy right now. They're being extremely needy, in a rather manipulative sort of way, so you feel guilty if you aren't with them and annoyed if you are. It will be far more productive to talk about their emotional state than to pretend that nothing's wrong and to secretly seethe with irritation. Favourable colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 32 and 13.
 
This is a marvellous day for concentrating on your home and family life. You might be inspired to arrange a big family get- together, or perhaps you'd rather that one or two special people over for a visit. If you've been considering a change of residence this is a good day to do some research, such as talking to an estate agent or seeing what's available. Empowering colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
This is a fabulous day for getting out and about. You won't want to be cooped up in one place for too long, or spend too much time with the same people, so try to introduce lots of variety into your day. You'll enjoy some changes of scene even if you don't go anywhere very special. What is important is to communicate with the people around you. Positive colours are khaki and cream. Lucky numbers are 31 and 22.
 
A certain person is determined to get their own way today and they don't seem to care how they achieve it. They'll push all your buttons and try to manipulate you into seeing things from their point of view, but they aren't likely to get very far because it's so obvious what they're trying to do. Beware of behaving this way yourself because it won't win you any favours and might even set others against you. Positive colours are dark green and amber. Lucky numbers are 25 and 10.
 
Tread carefully when dealing with colleagues today because you're all feeling rather touchy. As a result, someone might make a meal out of a thoughtless comment, or you could feel slighted by a certain person's attitude towards you. Even so, you can learn a lot about yourself right now if you're prepared to dig deep enough, and to examine your motives in the cold light of day. Advantageous colours are honey and russet. Lucky numbers are 22 and 23.
 
Make the most of today's gregarious mood by mixing with whoever happens to be around. You're feeling chatty and you've got a lot of interesting things to say for yourself. If you've fallen out with someone recently, this is a brilliant day for patching up your quarrel. Even if you can't restore full sweetness and light immediately, you can at least make a start. Empowering colours are amethyst and salmon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 19.
 
If you think you let yourself down yesterday this is a good opportunity to repair the damage. Maybe you need to have a quiet word in a certain person's ear or simply redo some of the work you think you bungled yesterday. If you've been waiting to hear about a benefit or allowance that you're entitled to, chase up the relevant people today. Ideal colours are salmon pink and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 36 and 14.
 
This is a great day for doing some thinking by yourself. You need to be alone in order to marshal your thoughts properly so you may struggle if you're surrounded by noise or people. At some point you might have a rewarding and thought-provoking conversation with someone, especially if you're discussing topics that you usually keep to yourself. Beneficial colours are charcoal grey and amber. Lucky numbers are 25 and 62.
 
Communications are a lot easier today, thank goodness, giving you the chance to make up for any misunderstandings that occurred yesterday. It's a fabulous day for talking to people you care about, whether that means having a big discussion with your other half or chatting to some children. A conversation with someone could turn out to be very inspiring for you. Favourable colours are apricot and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 29 and 47.
 
It's not that you're feeling unfriendly or stand-offish, simply that you're in a serious mood today and you want to choose the company you keep. You aren't keen on being with anyone who's too superficial or silly, and you'd much rather get together with people who are taking life fairly seriously. If you can have an intellectual debate then so much the better. Auspicious colours are coffee and orange. Lucky numbers are 10 and 14.
 
You haven't had an easy ride so far this August so take the opportunity today to do something that will bolster your ego and increase your sense of physical and emotional security. It's so important for you to feel safe and secure, Cancer, so work on ways of making that happen. Maybe you need to spend time with people you know inside out and trust implicitly? Fortunate colours are saffron and dark green. Lucky numbers are 27 and 33.
 
It's a busy day with plenty of socializing and chatting. This is great if you're in the mood for it, but it's not such good news if you need to get a lot of work out of the way. If you're with a close friend or colleague, don't be surprised if the conversation turns to emotional matters, giving you each the chance to say whatever is on your mind. Propitious colours are lavender and pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 15.
 
You're feeling much more resilient today, and yesterday's demons have almost entirely retreated into the woodwork. Get rid of any residual emotion by doing something very practical and satisfying, because it will be therapeutic if you can admire your handiwork or feel pleased with all the work you've got through. Stable colours are butterscotch and avocado. Lucky numbers are 39 and 74.
 
This is a great day for making plans, especially if they're connected with friends or a future project. You're thinking along serious lines without getting too bogged down, so it's great for mapping out your strategy or deciding in which order you're going to do everything. If you need to bounce your ideas off someone, choose a friend who's practical and sensible. Auspicious colours are emerald and sapphire. Lucky numbers are 31 and 37.
 
You're in a highly voluble mood and you're looking for any opportunity to get chatting. Although you'll enjoy talking about what was on TV last night, sharing the latest gossip or discussing the day's headlines, you'll also get a kick out of talking about your feelings. This is especially true if you're normally rather reserved on the subject of your emotions. Energising colours are silvery grey and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 38 and 67.
 
If you're still feeling unsure of yourself after yesterday, talk to someone who knows you well and who's willing to listen to you pouring your heart out. You'll gain a lot from talking things through, because it will give you the chance to think aloud and to work out exactly where you stand. If you've got no one to confide in, clarify your thoughts by writing everything down. Auspicious colours are mahogany and green. Lucky numbers are 37 and 4.
 
Get ready for some serious conversations today, in which you really communicate with the people around you. You might talk about something you feel strongly about, or have a sober chat with a neighbour over a shared problem. Don't be frightened to put forward your point of view because everyone will be interested in what you've got to say. Favourable colours are dark red and pale grey. Lucky numbers are 16 and 67.
 
Move with care today, my lovely Fishies, because you don't have much energy or resilience. You'll be easily drained by other people, especially if they want something from you or are very dependent on you. Keep out of the way of anyone who's full of germs, just in case they're thoughtful enough to give you a share of them. Fortunate colours are pistachio and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 20 and 24.
 
It's very difficult to understand what a certain person is talking about. They aren't making a lot of sense, or so it seems to you. What's more, it's highly likely that they can't work out what you're saying, either! It's one of those days when you feel as though you need a translator when talking to others, so be careful not to discuss anything that requires precision or diplomacy because both are in short supply right now. Empowering colours are quartz and lemon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 56.
 
Do yourself a favour and choose the company you keep very carefully today. You should avoid anyone who habitually puts you down or makes you doubt yourself, because they'll have even more of a negative impact on you than normal. Even then, you may have doubts about your abilities or you might have second thoughts about one of your goals. Try to stick with it. Ideal colours are pastel pink and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 34 and 60.
 
Is it your imagination or is a certain person trying to undermine you in some way? They certainly seem to be finding ways of putting you down or making you doubt yourself, but that doesn't mean you have to do what they want and have a crisis of confidence. Even so, you'll be happiest if you can be with people who boost your ego rather than trample on it. Positive colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 10 and 39.
 
Keep away from anyone who often makes you doubt yourself because they'll have an even more draining effect on your ego than normal. If you've got to do something that puts you in the limelight you could have a crisis of confidence, but try to rise above it by remembering all the times you've been nervous but done well. Empowering colours are deep purple and silver. Lucky numbers are 37 and 74.
 
You don't have much energy today so try to take things gently and don't wear yourself out. It won't help if you're secretly worried about something or you're trying to cover up a great big secret. If you're really concerned about your health you should arrange to see an expert who can help you, even if the prospect is rather scary. Harmonious colours are burgundy and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 9.
 
You're interested in other people's beliefs and morals today, but you need to be careful how you find out about them. You don't want to arouse anyone's opposition or to offend them in some way, and nor do you want to encourage them to start preaching to you. If you've got some spare time you'll enjoy relaxing near a stretch of water, whether it's the pond in your back garden or a massive expanse of ocean. Revealing colours are opal and mustard. Lucky numbers are 9 and 62.
 
There's a lot of confusion where a certain person is concerned right now. You aren't sure what you want from them, and they don't know what to expect from you, either. You might also encounter someone who makes you feel intimidated and inferior, in which case it will help to put as much distance between you as possible because you simply can't cope with them at the moment. Passionate colours are bright orange and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 33 and 2.
 
You aren't sure of yourself today, so don't make any important commitments in case they turn out to be big mistakes. In fact, it's a strange day because you feel unsettled and uncertain, and you could even have a change of heart over something that has always been really important to you until now. It's probably only a temporary blip, so don't take it too seriously at the moment. Fortunate colours are viridian and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 4 and 22.
 
Look after yourself today because your confidence could take a few knocks. Someone might undermine you, especially if they do it very subtly, or you might have second thoughts about something that has seemed certain until now. It's another day when you should be careful with your money and avoid making any important decisions about it for the time being. Favourable colours are aquamarine and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 16 and 17.
 
Be careful about who you mix with. You should avoid anyone who enjoys making you feel inferior or who always undermines you, because they'll really get to you today. Mind you, you should also be careful not to accidentally put someone down or put them in their place, because it won't go down well. Empowering colours are charcoal and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 28 and 12.
 
You have the potential to show a tremendous amount of compassion and consideration towards others today, even at some inconvenience to yourself. For instance, you might abandon your own plans in order to fit in with someone else's schedule. However, you must avoid telling yourself how wonderful you are to behave in this way, or feeling secretly resentful that you've had to concede to someone else's wishes. Positive colours are apricot and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 21.
 
Don't take anyone for granted because if you do they'll find some way of surprising you. For instance, they might say something that makes your eyebrows go into orbit or they may drop a mini bombshell that leaves you speechless. You should also avoid being very clinging or possessive of others because that will make them want to run a mile in the opposite direction. Propitious colours are lilac and silver. Lucky numbers are 34 and 76.
 
Spend some time with the people you love today. You're in an affectionate and demonstrative mood, so you won't feel shy about showing someone how you feel about them. It's also a good day for dwelling on emotions that you usually keep to yourself. Maybe it would help to talk about them with someone you can trust? Beneficial colours are mushroom and claret. Lucky numbers are 34 and 64.
 
You need to be around stimulating and interesting people today, Pisces. It's no good being with anyone who's predictable or conventional, because they'll drive you to distraction in about five seconds flat. You need plenty of emotional freedom right now, which may not go down well with someone who needs you to stay glued by their side. Something's got to give. Great colours are sable and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 12.
 
It won't take much to make you feel bored today, so ideally you need to keep yourself fully occupied and with plenty of different things to do. You won't like it if someone tries to tie you down emotionally, either, and you'll soon want to rebel and prove that you're a free spirit. Watch your spending, though, especially if you're trying to prove a point, because it could get out of hand. Energising colours are russet and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 11.
 
It's a great day for putting energy into something that you feel strongly about, especially if it's connected with your values in life. For instance, you might want to spend a lot of time working on an ambition or goal that means a lot to you. If you're with older people you'll want to stand up for what you believe in, even if they don't agree with you. Dynamic colours are navy and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 23 and 18.
 
It's a day for letting your hair down and relaxing, preferably with some people you know well. You might decide to get together with people who live nearby or to spend some time with close friends and family. The specific personnel that you choose don't matter, it's the enjoyment that you get from being with them that's really important today. Propitious colours are apricot and black satin. Lucky numbers are 3 and 37.
 
Make the most of today's high energy levels, especially if you want to talk someone into seeing things from your point of view or you've got something important to say. It's also terrific for letting off steam by doing things that require a certain amount of bravado without having to go over the top and be foolish or dare-devil. Favourable colours are peach and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
 
What is it about Sundays at the moment? They coincide with your need for change, space and spontaneity, which is great if you can make such things happen but deeply frustrating if you're expected to take part in a traditional family ritual. Try to set aside some time for yourself, in which you can do exactly what you want without having to answer to anyone else. Fortunate colours are plum and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 29 and 43.
 
You're still in high spirits Taurus, so enjoy! You feel like doing something exciting and daredevil today, or changing your plans if they seem a bit dreary. It's a fabulous day for getting together with loved ones, but you might also fancy doing something sporty or athletic, especially if you can compete against others. You want to win, of course! Expressive colours are black velvet and peach. Lucky numbers are 22 and 35.
 
You need plenty of room to breathe today, which means you won't take kindly to anyone watching your every move or telling you what you should be doing. In fact, you'll start to feel very rebellious and naughty if anyone starts wagging their finger at you. Try to let off steam before you reach boiling point, to avoid doing anything that will really land you in trouble. Naughty colours are caramel and banana. Lucky numbers are 3 and 10.
 
You're in quite a daredevil mood today, although you'll draw the line at doing anything that's very foolhardy or dangerous. Even so, you're ready to take a few risks and to have a good time in the process. If you've got some spare time you'll enjoy visiting somewhere new or taking off on a mini adventure with some kindred spirits. Lucky colours are salmon and gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 21.
 
The more reliant you are on your daily routine running smoothly, the more likely you are to feel jangled when things go wrong today. Yes, it's one of those irritating days when plans fail to work out in the way you hoped, and even simple tasks have a tendency to go haywire. Maybe you should give in to all this and do something totally different for a change? Inspirational colours are dark grey and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 16 and 52.
 
You're feeling very positive and cheerful, with the result that things will go well for you. It's a wonderful day for doing something sociable, because that's exactly what you're in the mood for and you may end up being the life and soul of the party. It won't do your popularity any harm and you may even attract a new admirer as a result of your shimmering personality. Beneficial colours are chocolate and copper. Lucky numbers are 25 and 46.
 
You have friends behind the scenes and they're ready to pull a few strings on your behalf today. Never mind if you don't know who these people might be because you can rest easy knowing that things are going your way at the moment, even if it doesn't always seem to be the case. You have good reason to be confident about the way your ambitions are working out. Expressive colours are pastel pink and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 49.
 
You're feeling really sociable and gregarious so it would be a shame to spend the day by yourself unless you don't have any choice. Other people will get a big kick out of being with you, partly because you're in such a lively mood and partly because you're being such fun. So have plenty of laughs and make the most of being alive. Beneficial colours are coffee and lemon. Lucky numbers are 27 and 24.
 
Everything goes well today. You're feeling upbeat and cheerful, so you attract positive situations and good outcomes. You might want to continue what you started yesterday, or perhaps that's all out of the way and it's time to enjoy yourself instead! If you're going shopping, you'll be drawn to status symbols and other items that will enhance your reputation. But make sure you can afford them! Inspiring colours are lemon and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 10 and 13.
 
You're in a really sunny and happy mood today, so enjoy it while it lasts. It's great for making other people feel good too, whether that's by cheering them up, making them laugh or simply being fantastic company. You're also feeling very positive about hopes or dreams, and are already starting to fantasize about them turning into reality. That's great, but don't forget they won't happen of its own accord. Auspicious colours are vanilla and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 58.
 
Things go well today, partly thanks to your sunny temper and partly to the way things slot into place without any apparent input from you. This is a brilliant day for getting on well with whoever happens to be around, whether a work colleague, or your nearest and dearest. Expect some good news about a job interview or financial matter, which will give you something to smile about. Energising colours are marigold and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 17 and 6.
 
You're starting to feel a bit happier, which is good news. Even if your current financial situation hasn't improved at least you feel better able to cope, and you're also able to remind yourself that other areas of your life are going well at the moment. It's definitely a day for counting your blessings and enjoying yourself. Let's face it, you deserve some fun after the week you've had! Ideal colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 39 and 51.
 
This is an excellent day for doing some networking and strengthening the lines of communication between you and certain people. They'll be friendly and it could turn out to be a very wise move on your part. It's also good for being in contact with people who come from other countries or cultures because they'll teach you a lot about the world and also about yourself. Auspicious colours are navy and fawn. Lucky numbers are 37 and 14.
 
This is one of the nicest days of the month, with social activity and some very enjoyable encounters with special people. It's perfect for any sort of party or get-together, and there's no doubt that you'll be one of the stars of the show. If you've been wondering whether to take a modest gamble, it could pay off surprisingly well now. Good luck! Lucky colours are white and gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 14.
 
You need to broaden your horizons if you want to get the most of out of the day. Be open to new ideas and be prepared to try some experiments. You'll enjoy a change of scene, too, especially if you can visit somewhere for the first time. Do your best to be spontaneous and independent. Positive colours are spearmint and almond. Lucky numbers are 8 and 21.
 
You're feeling wonderfully optimistic and positive and determined to look on the bright side no matter what's happening to you at the moment. There could also be some very good news, which will put an extra spring in your step and definitely give you something to smile about. It's one of those days when you're perfectly happy to count your blessings. Ideal colours are dark green and dark orange. Lucky numbers are 4 and 73.
 
You're quietly convinced that everything's going to turn out well today and the Stars say it will. It's a day when positive thinking pays off, so stay optimistic and cheerful. Even if things are difficult for you at the moment you're sure that they'll work out okay in the end, and right now you're prepared to put your troubles to one side so you can enjoy yourself instead. Ideal colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 9 and 54.
 
This is a great day for thinking about your finances, especially if you're trying to dream up some schemes to make money. Be prepared to take some chances without doing anything too risky or foolish.

Today's New Moon will have a rejuvenating effect on your health and work during the next two weeks.

You could be inspired to liven up your daily routine if it's starting to pall. Advantageous colours are azure and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 27.
 
Today's New Moon will have an invigorating effect on your brain during the next two weeks.

It could also bring some great opportunities your way, much to your delight. Beneficial colours are champagne and mauve. Lucky numbers are 37 and 9.
 
If you want to put your money to work, start thinking about how you can make it grow. Maybe you should seek some expert advice if you aren't sure what to do, or perhaps you're now ready to make a decision and hope that it turns out well. This is certainly a good day for setting the ball rolling, provided that you know what you're doing and you don't take any foolish risks. Prosperous colours are maroon and basalt. Lucky numbers are 4 and 69.
 
Give your brain some exercise. You are an air sign, which means you're very good at intellectual pursuits and this is a great day for getting involved in them. Maybe you could have a fascinating discussion with someone that really makes you think, or perhaps you'd prefer to put your thoughts down on paper. But do something! Stabilising colours are olive and brass. Lucky numbers are 22 and 59.
 
Today's New Moon gives you a huge shot in the arm, and over the next couple of weeks it will inspire you to make some exciting changes to your personal life.

Lucky numbers are 33 and 42.
 
Today's New Moon will have a positive impact on your communications during the next two weeks, helping you to sort out any glitches that have sprung up between you and other people recently.

Lucky numbers are 8 and 59.
 
The past few days have been a financial muddle but today's New Moon gives you the chance to make some sense out of everything that's been going on.

Time really is money at the moment. Fortunate colours are dusky pink and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 16 and 43.
 
Today brings a New Moon that will have a harmonious effect on your relationships during the coming two weeks.

You might also embark on a new partnership between now and mid August, in which case it will stand a good chance of being a success. Insightful colours are amethyst and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 4 and 27.
 
There's a New Moon today and it will be affecting your career and long-term goals during the coming two weeks. This is great news if you're hoping to make a name for yourself or you want to launch an important new project that you hope will boost your reputation.

Dynamic colours are maroon and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 32 and 19.
 
It's time to turn over a new leaf, especially where home and family are concerned. If you've been at each other's throats recently, you need to sort out the problem and then call a truce.

Fortunate colours are fuchsia and champagne. Lucky numbers are 40 and 16.
 
What's wrong? You're in rather a state today and you need to calm down. Maybe you've got too much to do and you don't know where to start, or perhaps you're desperately trying to meet a deadline and you're wondering how that can be humanly possible. Try not to fritter away your energy on panicking or endlessly watching the clock. Instead, stay cool and work through everything on your list, starting with the top priority. Soothing colours are orange and sea green. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
There's a certain amount of friction between you and a loved one today and it looks as though money is at the root of the problem. Maybe one of you wants to buy something and the other one disagrees, or there's a clash about the cost of a social event. Try to stay calm and keep things in proportion, otherwise you'll soon get very agitated and take it all very personally. Ideal colours are oyster and rich purple. Lucky numbers are 10 and 14.
 
There's domestic tension in the air, so be careful. It won't take much for someone to lose their temper, even if it's over something that you consider to be totally trivial. The trouble is that you may unconsciously make the situation worse by winding this person up. If you want to have a row, then get it over with so you can move on to something else. Auspicious colours are lemon and sage green. Lucky numbers are 30 and 23.
 
You're in an impatient and irritable mood, and it won't take much to make you lose your rag with whoever happens to be around. Is that because you're annoyed by their silly little habits, or are you really angry about something totally different? An old grievance may be nagging away at you, yet you feel you can't mention it so you get angry about something very petty instead. Opportune colours are platinum and aqua. Lucky numbers are 2 and 10.
 
The atmosphere is somewhat combustible today, so mind how you go. Unfortunately, the better you know someone the more likely you are to have a row with them, especially if they're already annoyed about something. You might simply have the bad luck to stray into the firing line, but on the other hand maybe you're the reason for them feeling so angry in the first place? If so, you'd better say sorry. Expressive colours are apricot and crimson. Lucky numbers are 14 and 30.
 
You're in a strange mood at the moment, especially where money is concerned. You had your head in the clouds about it on Tuesday but today you've gone to the opposite extreme and are showing a distinct tendency to look on the gloomy side about everything. Try not to let money worries get you down or hamper your thought processes. Things may not be as bad as they seem. Propitious colours are aqua and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 6 and 14.
 
Someone may be dear to your heart but they're being rather unapproachable today, making it hard to establish any sense of intimacy with them. Try not to take this too personally because there could be reasons for their behaviour that have nothing to do with you. Maybe you should talk to them and find out what's going on, but don't be pushy or needy. Fortunate colours are burnished brass and avocado. Lucky numbers are 34 and 14.
 
You're in a very conscientious mood today and you want to do things properly. You're also feeling responsible so won't want to shirk anything that you consider to be your duty. This is all very commendable but don't take it to extremes and remove all enjoyment and happiness from your day. So give yourself a break at some point and relax. Expressive colours are platinum and purple. Lucky numbers are 31 and 75.
 
Someone's breathing fire, so try to stay out of their way. Mind you, that may be easier said than done, especially if you happen to live with them or they're your boss. What's got them into this state, anyway? Could it have anything to do with you? Try not to make this person even more aggravated than they are already unless you enjoy rip- roaring rows and watching the plaster falling from the ceiling as a result of all the shouting that's going on. Ideal colours are plum and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 18 and 55.
 
This is a marvellous day for learning something new because it will make a big impact on you. It will also go into your brain and stay there! You could even be inspired to start thinking about getting involved in a long-term educational project, such as going back to school or signing up for a distance learning course. If you're planning a trip or holiday, check that all the arrangements are looking good. Fortunate colours are jasmine and ochre. Lucky numbers are 21 and 69.
 
Do your best not to get heated and angry today because if that happens you'll say or do the wrong thing. You might blurt out some information that was supposed to remain a secret or make a joke to someone who thinks you're being politically incorrect. If you're in a tearing hurry over something, you won't be amused if someone slows you up or throws a spanner in the works. Fortunate colours are avocado and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 9 and 71.
 
A friend is in a rather sober and downbeat state today and it could quickly rub off on you. For instance, they may be worried about something and you'll soon start to feel anxious too. There could be a slight air of reserve between you, which is nothing to worry about because it will soon pass. Carry on as though nothing's wrong and don't make a big thing of it. Ideal colours are chocolate and caramel. Lucky numbers are 12 and 45.
 
If you want to avoid a lot of hassle further down the line you shouldn't start any new financial arrangements today. So don't fill in any forms to open bank accounts or get credit cards, because something could go wrong and you'll end up wasting your time. Instead, concentrate on financial matters that are already set up and running smoothly. Auspicious colours are scarlet and gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 13.
 
If you've been meaning to ring a friend and arrange to see them, don't do it today. Well, not unless you want the arrangements to go wrong or to be cancelled. Because that's what could happen if you start anything new today. Instead, concentrate on plans that are already under way, and wait until tomorrow before organizing your social life. Energising colours are lemon and sapphire. Lucky numbers are 29 and 64.
 
This isn't a good day for arranging a journey or holiday because your plans could go awry. However, if you have to book a trip that you hope will be cancelled, this is definitely the day to do it! If you've got a test or exam coming up, this is a brilliant day for doing some revision. Favourable colours are olive and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 71.
 
If you want to make some social arrangements you should wait until tomorrow. That's because things won't work out in the way you want if you fix them up today, and that could be very disappointing. As it is, a social event that takes place today might be hit by snags, such as one of you turning up late or the entire encounter being a bit of a disappointment. Empowering colours are honeycomb and sapphire. Lucky numbers are 9 and 13.
 
Don't start anything important or official today because it could easily go wrong somewhere along the line. For instance, a big project that gets off the ground now might run into trouble and never see the light of day, or you could lose interest in something that started off with so much promise. So postpone starting any new projects today and concentrate on those that are already up and running. Beneficial colours are tangerine and ivory. Lucky numbers are 22 and 39.
 
This is another day when communications could easily go haywire, leading to all sorts of problems. Try not to make any new arrangements today because something could go wrong, forcing you to cancel the whole thing further down the line. You should also try to avoid writing any important letters or emails because they may contain errors or never reach their destination. Wait till tomorrow. Beneficial colours are sky blue and saffron. Lucky numbers are 6 and 52.
 
If you're planning to arrange something that you want to be a secret for the time being, don't make a start on it. There's every chance that something could go wrong and your secret will be blown, or the whole thing will fizzle out. Instead, it's a good day for visiting someone who can't get out much, perhaps because they're in hospital or house- bound. Expansive colours are jet black and bright red. Lucky numbers are 39 and 72.
 
Try to avoid getting any personal projects off the drawing board today because they won't stand a very good chance of success. Something might go wrong with them, someone else might let you down over them or you could change your mind about them halfway through. Far better to concentrate on projects that are already up and running than to start anything new. Fortunate colours are silvery grey and spring green. Lucky numbers are 32 and 61.
 
Spending money could be a frustrating experience today. A trip to the supermarket might be a waste of time because they've run out of the things you need, or there's a massive queue at the checkout. If you do succeed in buying something, it may develop a fault later on or turn out to be unsuitable in some way. These things are sent to try us! Energising colours are chocolate and avocado. Lucky numbers are 1 and 77.
 
If you don't want to waste your time, you would be well advised to avoid starting any new domestic projects, because they won't amount to much. Instead, concentrate on ideas that are already in the pipeline. Ideally, you should also set aside plenty of time in which to rest and relax in some favourite and familiar surroundings. Fortunate colours are tan and lavender. Lucky numbers are 17 and 46.
 
If you've been meaning to apply for a new job or to arrange an important medical appointment, it's not a good idea to do it today. That's because something could go wrong, such as the dates being muddled up, and the whole thing could grind to a halt. Do it tomorrow, but in the meantime keep busy with projects that are already in progress. Expressive colours are white and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 9 and 19.
 
This isn't a good day for starting any new negotiations or agreements because they could hit snags and fizzle out. Far better to concentrate on arrangements that are already in the pipeline, and to steer them through to a successful conclusion. You should also avoid making a date to see someone today because, once again, it could all come to nought. Communicative colours are russet and mango. Lucky numbers are 3 and 5.
 
Be careful when dealing with anyone who has a martyr complex because they'll go overboard today. They seem to think they're a saint in human form and they may go on (and on) about how much they've suffered, as though that somehow makes them better than everyone else. You long to give them a piece of your Virgo mind but do you have the courage to risk making them cry? Prosperous colours are crimson and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 29 and 71.
 
Communications have a nasty habit of going crazy today, leaving you worried, confused and wondering what on earth is going on. Someone may swear that they're giving you the facts while all the time they're telling you a pack of lies, or they might be economical with the truth and omit to give you some rather important information. Try to avoid reaching any sort of agreement because you may not know what you're agreeing to. Auspicious colours are ginger and ebony. Lucky numbers are 12 and 32.
 
If you want to make life easy for yourself you should avoid getting involved in any important or complex discussions today. That's because they could easily go wrong in some way, perhaps because someone doesn't explain themselves properly or they wrongly assume that everyone knows what they're talking about. You should also try to avoid signing on any dotted lines because contracts and agreements may contain mistakes or snags that you aren't aware of at the moment but which will come to light later on when it's too late to back down. So watch out! Beneficial colours are ivory and coffee. Lucky numbers are 5 and 46.
 
It's hard to get at the truth today, partly because you're in a bit of a muddle and partly because other people aren't being as straightforward as you'd like. You should be especially wary of anyone who insists they're telling you the truth because it probably means that they aren't. Watch out, too, for anyone who wants to brainwash you into signing up to their own set of beliefs, whether these are religious, political or environmental. Fortunate colours are dark grey and orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 20.
 
Watch what you spend your money on. Although you've normally got your head screwed on when it comes to your finances, you don't seem to be nearly so grounded and practical today. In fact, you could easily get talked into buying things you don't want or need. There's also a faint chance that you might be swindled by someone who takes advantage of you, so be on your guard. Auspicious colours are parchment and olive. Lucky numbers are 11 and 73.
 
Trust in what you believe Taurus, because someone is giving you the wrong information. They might have accidentally got a story back to front, or they may be deliberately trying to pull the wool over your eyes. There could also be confusion when dealing with an official body or company, so take care. Ideal colours are hazel and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 20 and 6.
 
Confusion reigns today, so beware.... You're so susceptible at the moment, that you'll be heavily influenced by what people tell you, even if you'd normally ignore every word they say. Concentrate on creative matters, in which you'll excel, and ignore anything that calls for careful thought because that isn't the way your mind is working. Stable colours are amethyst and navy. Lucky numbers are 12 and 63.
 
Do your best to make yourself clear when talking to people today because there's a strong possibility of wires being crossed and people getting hold of the wrong end of the stick. Even if you've got something difficult to say it would be better to be honest than to hedge your bets and tell a few white lies because this isn't a good day for being even remotely dishonest. Fabulous colours are apple blossom and cherry pink. Lucky numbers are 13 and 36.
 
A certain someone is being awfully weedy today. They're bleating on about all the things that are wrong in their life, and it will soon dawn on you that their main problem is that they're drowning in self-pity. Now, make sure that you don't start playing them at their own game, because all this 'poor little me' stuff will be surprisingly infectious. Advantageous colours are peach blossom and violet. Lucky numbers are 36 and 28.
 
Be careful about who and what you believe today because not everyone is telling you the truth. Someone might say things that they think you want to hear, even though they're divorced from all the facts, or they could get carried away when telling you something and end up making it up as they go along. You must also take care to say what you mean and not give anyone a false impression. Beneficial colours are rose quartz and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 22 and 9.
 
Don't believe everything you hear today. That's because someone may not be honest or straight with you, or you might be listening very subjectively and only hearing what you want to hear. If you're trying to sort out a glitch in your relationship with a certain person, this is not a good day to do it. There's too much scope for muddles and crossed wires. It can wait until tomorrow. Fortunate colours are jet black and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 24 and 50.
 
You're usually no slouch when it comes to thinking about money but it's a different story today because something seems to have happened to your brain. You're reluctant to face unpleasant facts and are doing your best to paint every situation in the rosiest light possible. This means it isn't a good day for making any financial decisions because you refuse to acknowledge that they might carry a risk or not work out for you. Ideal colours are mother of pearl and avocado. Lucky numbers are 1 and 76.
 
You start the month full of energy and enthusiasm. If you're hoping to turn a dream into reality at some point, try to devote some time to it today so you feel you're achieving something. It's also a great day for getting together with friends and kindred spirits because you'll feel better for seeing them. Inspirational colours are bright red and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 16 and 10.
 
You'll be happiest if you can work by yourself today, preferably on activities that have a lot of meaning for you. It will be very satisfying to feel that you've done a good job on something that seems worthwhile. However, don't pass up the chance of a private, confidential chat with someone in which you can talk about your deepest emotions. Beneficial colours are marigold and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 73.
 
You're full of energy and bounce, and you'll feel even more vibrant if you've something exciting to do. It's a lovely day for being with people you care about, especially if you do something energetic together. So if you're with children, you'll enjoy playing with them. If you're by yourself, put on your favourite music and dance your heart out. Harmonious colours are green velvet and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 24 and 11.
 
You're full of beans today, which makes it a great start to August. You're also full of enthusiasm about all sorts of topics, and this will rub off on whoever happens to be around. If you want to talk someone into seeing things from your point of view, or joining you on a forthcoming adventure, you'd better get chatting to them today while you're in full flow. Dynamic colours are peach and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 5 and 55.
 
You'll enjoy keeping busy today, especially if you can let off steam at the same time. You might decide to go for a brisk walk during your lunch hour or visit the gym after work. It certainly isn't a good idea to be completely sedentary unless you have no choice in the matter, because being too inactive could lead to a slight tendency to be irritable or impatient. Prosperous colours are emerald and almond. Lucky numbers are 14 and 13.
 
This is a brilliant day for getting things done. You don't want to knock yourself out doing everything in double-quick time but you don't want to let projects go on indefinitely, either. After all, you've got other things to do today, such as getting together with a friend or devoting some of your precious spare time to a favourite hobby. Inspirational colours are terracotta and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 71.
 
This is the perfect day for having a good look around your house and garden and deciding whether you need to spend some money, if you have any! For instance, you might realize that it's time to shell out on some DIY or renovations. You don't have to spend masses of money, but this is definitely a good time to make some wise investments. Inspirational colours are raspberry and cream. Lucky numbers are 35 and 62.
 
It's a really lively start to the month, because you're full of energy and get-up-and-go. It's great for putting your heart and soul into whatever you do today. Give it your best shot and find out what you can achieve. If you're at work, you'll enjoy a mildly competitive rapport with a colleague. Inspiring colours are nutmeg and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 24 and 33.
 
Want to keep busy? Well, there's no need to go far because you'll find plenty to keep you occupied at home. You might be inspired to do lots of housework or gardening, for instance, or you could have a blitz on your working surroundings and get them into order. You need to stay active today, otherwise you'll soon feel restless and dissatisfied. Sociable colours are tan and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
You're in a lively mood, especially if you can be with people who make you think. You'll really enjoy the chance to exchange ideas and get involved in a discussion, and if you need to defend your opinions you'll manage to do so without getting too heated or angry. It's also a good day for arranging a forthcoming journey or trip. Fortunate colours are ebony and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 22 and 7.
 
You're raring to go and ready to pull out all the stops today. There's a lot you want to achieve and you're eager to get started. If anyone interrupts you or gets in your way, you won't exactly be rude but you'll make it plain that you can't hang around for long. Ideally, you should be left to your own devices today until you've achieved what you set out to do. Fortunate colours are vanilla and ginger. Lucky numbers are 8 and 4.
 
You're feeling industrious and businesslike, making it not only a great start to the week but also to the month. You're in the mood to get on with whatever needs to be done, especially if it's getting horribly overdue. Rather than shoving it to the back of your mind and not thinking about it in the hope that it will go away, why not tackle it - and make a good job of it at the same time. Ideal colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 16 and 45.
 
Whatever you do, don't tie anyone down or make them feel trapped today. They won't like it one bit, and they'll do their utmost to break free from what they feel are the constraints you've imposed on them. Alternatively, maybe you're the one who's feeling hemmed in by your other half? If so, try to explain what's wrong so you can work out a solution together. Auspicious colours are canary yellow and terra cotta. Lucky numbers are 16 and 4.
 
A loved one is unpredictable and eccentric. There's little you can do about it other than to let them get on with it. If you've arranged a social event, be prepared for some last-minute snags or changes of plan and try to go with the flow. There's also the possibility that you might be strongly attracted to someone who isn't your usual type at all, but who really gets you going. What's going on? Lucky colours are mushroom and maroon. Lucky numbers are 21 and 35.
 
It's difficult to make much headway with a certain someone today. They're being unco-operative and you may even suspect that they're deliberately throwing a spanner in the works for some peculiar reason of their own. Unfortunately you stand little chance of making them change their behaviour at the moment, so you'll have to like it or lump it. Beneficial colours are saffron and purple. Lucky numbers are 4 and 23.
 
You haven't made much headway with a certain someone during the past few days and unfortunately things get even more tricky between you this Sunday. Maybe you should accept that this is a low patch in your relationship and that it will all blow over in due course. In the meantime, it might help to keep a low profile and to stop asking the person concerned for reassurance or comfort. Stabilising colours are mulberry and white. Lucky numbers are 1 and 45.
 
The harder you try to push ahead with things today, the more likely you are to be stymied and frustrated. Something or someone appears to be standing in your way, and unless you want to wear yourself to a frazzle you'd be well advised to admit temporary defeat. Once you do this, you may realize that you need to change your strategy because you're on a hiding to nothing with your current plans. Ideal colours are mother of pearl and dark green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 20.
 
The more sedate and uptight someone is today, the more you'll struggle to keep your temper with them. In fact, you won't have any patience with them and will count the seconds until you can get away from them. But try not to hurt their feelings in the process, especially if they happen to be a member of your family. And don't make comments that are deliberately intended to wind them up, either! Beneficial colours are lilac and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 21 and 71.
 
The last thing you want is to feel as though you're being tied down or restricted. Ideally, you should be able to do things on the spur of the moment, without having to ask anyone's permission or see if they want to tag along. You long to be a free spirit, but that could cause ructions if you're very close to someone. Find a compromise in order to keep everyone relatively happy. Advantageous colours are green velvet and primrose. Lucky numbers are 11 and 21.
 
It's a frustrating day, so be warned. You'll take one step forward and two steps back in virtually everything you do so be prepared to make very slow progress. There could also be teeth-gnashing delays to something that you consider to be very important or urgent but which is being disregarded by everyone else. All you can do is be patient and wait for the situation to improve. Communicative colours are mother of pearl and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 22 and 17.
 
Someone is in a very flirtatious mood, as you'll soon discover. They might even make mincemeat of your heart as they bat their eyelashes at you or make all sorts of double-edged comments. If you're already spoken for you could be tempted to stray, but will you have the courage to do so? Maybe you shouldn't do anything rash yet, as the relationship might be over almost as soon as it's begun. Adventurous colours are golden rod and apple green. Lucky numbers are 14 and 9.
 
You're on the hunt for excitement today, and you have no interest in anything or anyone that strikes you as boring, hidebound or tedious. If you're lumbered with people who are stick-in-the-muds, find ways of letting off steam without creating havoc. For instance, it will be tempting to dress in ways that will shock everyone, but what will that achieve other than a few frosty looks? Vibrant colours are vanilla and jade. Lucky numbers are 1 and 11.
 
Variety is the spice of life and it will certainly add some piquant seasoning to your day. This is especially likely if you've got to follow a rigid or tedious schedule today, because something will happen to throw all your plans up in the air. Do your best to go with the flow, because you won't get anywhere by resisting it and standing firm. Beneficial colours are scarlet and sage. Lucky numbers are 6 and 4.
 
The month ends on a frustrating note because it's a day when it's hard to make much progress. Maybe someone is standing in your way or you're facing so many obstacles that you don't know what to do about them. Should you admit defeat or simply accept that the time is not yet right to make certain things happen? Indulgent colours are lilac and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 17 and 14.
 
If you're out shopping today it will be very difficult to restrain yourself if you see something nice. You'll want to buy it and will struggle to resist the temptation. Can you afford it, or won't that make any difference if you want it? You could also be seized with the inspiration to do some decorating at home or to buy lots of food for a special meal. Indulgent colours are chestnut and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 17 and 50.
 
You're at your most practical and efficient today, so it's good news if you're at work because you'll be very pleased with what you achieve. You'll also find it easy to get on with colleagues and clients. This is a good day to spend money on items that will make your life run that little bit smoother, such as a household appliance or kitchen gadgets. Ideal colours are pale grey and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 31 and 29.
 
It's been a difficult week and you need something to cheer you up. So how about getting together with some friends or taking part in a group gathering. It will do you good to be with some kindred spirits, especially if you're all united in a common cause. Alternatively, set aside some time in which you can immerse yourself in a favourite hobby. Propitious colours are kiwifruit and coffee. Lucky numbers are 30 and 46.
 
You're in the mood to be surrounded by interesting people today, especially if they come from a different background or culture. You're intrigued by what you can learn from them so you'll instigate some wide-ranging conversations. Travel is also on your mind this Saturday, and you might fancy booking up a forthcoming trip, such as a long weekend or your next holiday. Insightful colours are caramel and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 59.
 
It's time to cheer yourself up by doing something nice. Try to get together with people who always make you laugh or who boost your confidence because they think you're a superstar. If you've been fretting about a certain someone during the past couple of days, you'll start to see the situation in a more realistic light. It probably won't seem half as bad as it did on Thursday. Ideal colours are magenta and peach. Lucky numbers are 24 and 51.
 
It would be a shame to spend too much of the day by yourself because you're in such a convivial and outgoing mood. Ideally, you should get together with some friends or with close members of the family. If you're involved in an activity in your local community today, you'll receive some welcome compliments. Be prepared to be chatted up by someone who's rather smitten by you. Great for the ego! Beneficial colours are burgundy and champagne. Lucky numbers are 29 and 3.
 
If you did very little yesterday, this is a good chance to catch up. It will be surprisingly enjoyable to get on with the chores, and you'll feel you're actually achieving something as each task is ticked off your list of things to do. If you feel inspired you might fancy cleaning out the fridge or emptying the freezer to see what gems are lurking forgotten in the back of it. Expressive colours are silvery grey and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 9 and 63.
 
Yesterday was rather a trial, but you're now back on form, so put the entire experience behind you. One of the best ways to do this is to get out and about, giving yourself a change of scene and getting lots of fresh air at the same time. Enjoy a shopping trip, especially if you can combine it with a social event such as meeting a friend for lunch. Sunny colours are strawberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
 
You'll value having some time to yourself today, particularly if you can do things that matter to you but which aren't necessarily very important to anyone else. How about giving yourself some pampering, whether that means soaking in the bath while reading a good book or treating yourself to a session in your local beauty salon? You'll enjoy spoiling yourself. Beneficial colours are caramel fudge and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 7 and 8.
 
Get in touch with friends you haven't seen in a while, especially if they live abroad or in another part of your own country. You might want to ring them up, or send them an email or a letter. Maybe you could arrange to meet up? You'll enjoy having something nice to look forward to. Favourable colours are green velvet and dark plum. Lucky numbers are 6 and 33.
 
You'll be happiest if you can be left to your own devices today, and even more so if you've got lots of things that you want to get on with. If you're at work you'll feel a quiet sense of satisfaction at what you're able to achieve. But whatever you're doing, this is a good day for having a quiet chat with someone you regard as a father-figure or a mentor. Advantageous colours are russet and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 27 and 40.
 
This is a terrific day for taking stock of your current position, whether you're looking at your ambitions, your finances or both. Maybe you should write down a list of everything you've achieved recently, and everything you've still got to do, so you can see exactly where you stand. It's also a good day for making investments in conjunction with a partner. Fortunate colours are ivory and lilac. Lucky numbers are 70 and 56.
 
Do you have too much on your plate today? It's looking that way and you'll soon start to feel edgy and fraught. Try to concentrate on whatever is most important and urgent, and to give it your full attention, otherwise you'll be distracted by thoughts of all the things you still have to do. It will also help to have frequent breaks so you can stay mentally fresh and alert. Vibrant colours are chocolate and ochre. Lucky numbers are 25 and 50.
 
Someone gets bogged down in petty, small-minded details today, which is guaranteed to get on your nerves. They may also be rather nit- picking or they could insist on doing everything by the rulebook, much to your frustration. However, if you start a row with them you'll be arguing the toss for ages because they won't let the matter drop. Harmonious colours are aqua and dark orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 19.
 
If you want a relaxing, easy Friday you should keep friends and finances as far apart as possible. Mix the two together and the result is likely to be confusion, muddle and even some bad feeling. If you're unlucky you might discover that someone is trying to rook you, but it's more likely that you're both distracted and therefore prone to making silly mistakes over money. Fortunate colours are apricot and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 26 and 46.
 
It feels as though your brain has been dismantled and left in different corners of the room. You simply can't get yourself organized and you may also be overcome by tiredness and lassitude, so you can't be bothered to make the effort to do anything very much. This is fine if you don't have to do anything important but it's not such good news if people are counting on you. But you won't let them down, will you? Ideal colours are teal blue and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 21 and 34.
 
It seems that all yesterday's hassles haven't entirely melted away, because you're still feeling agitated about them. Clear the air with the other person, rather than keep your feelings to yourself. But don't let your tongue run away with you, or you'll end up saying more than you intended and hurting someone's feelings. Is it worth so much aggro? Calming colours are yellow and brown. Lucky numbers are 12 and 8.
 
You don't have a lot of energy today, so take things gently. Maybe you're worn out after the emotional trough of the past couple of days? Do something that makes you feel good about yourself, and try to avoid anyone who's combative, aggressive or just plain hard work. You can't cope with them at the moment! You'll also feel better if you can be near or in water. Favourable colours are opal and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 15 and 54.
 
Someone's got a very sharp tongue today and you don't like it. Mind you, you'll probably give as good as you get, because the alternative is to take a tongue-lashing without uttering a word in your own defence. But try not to get so caught up in the heat of the moment that you say things you'll bitterly regret when you've calmed down again. Opportunistic colours are charcoal and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 7 and 53.
 
Be careful when handling money because there's plenty of scope for mistakes. Unfortunately there's also a chance that someone may try to trick you in some way, or at the very least be economical with the truth. Double-check your next credit card and bank statements to make sure they don't contain any rogue payments or silly errors. Stabilising colours are peach blossom and russet brown. Lucky numbers are 9 and 5.
 
Details, details! A certain person is obsessed with them today, which will soon start to drive you round the bend. They may also criticize you for not paying enough attention to the things they consider to be important. Do your best to keep track of your belongings because you'll waste hours searching for them, and then discover they were under your nose the whole time. Fortunate colours are plum and platinum. Lucky numbers are 21 and 9.
 
Someone's in a very defensive mood, making them edgy and tense. Unfortunately you may be experiencing something similar, making you liable to bite someone's head off at the slightest opportunity. If you give into this feeling, you'll soon have a full-scale row on your hands, even if it's about something trivial and silly. So try to keep your sense of humour and don't allow yourself to get too rattled or huffy. Positive colours are mauve and green. Lucky numbers are 17 and 11.
 
Certain persons are in a mighty picky mood. They might correct everything you say, until you feel you daren't open your mouth, or they could criticize your behaviour. Well, that's how it seems to you, although they've probably got a very different opinion about what's happening because they think you're being far too sensitive and subjective. Are you? Beneficial colours are honey and oak. Lucky numbers are 36 and 33.
 
It's easy to speak out of turn and to say the wrong thing today, especially if you do it in the heat of the moment. So try to keep a grip on your emotions and don't let your mouth run away with you. You might also get caught up in silly, trivial details that don't really matter but which seem terribly important to you at the time. Advantageous colours are mauve and khaki. Lucky numbers are 11 and 7.
 
From today you embark on a rather strange phase that will last for the rest of the year. There will be times when you'll struggle to find the motivation you need to do things, especially if they're unpleasant or tricky. You may also lack self-confidence, or feel torn between wanting to take a back seat over something and needing to be in the limelight. Take it a day at a time. Advantageous colours are butterscotch and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 5 and 32.
 
Between now and the middle of February 2006 you should channel your energy into your work, your general well-being and your daily routine. However, you won't want to plug away in a boring and predictable fashion because that will soon irritate you, so you'll need plenty of stimulation, excitement and challenges along the way. Auspicious colours are hazel and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 18 and 76.
 
It's a Taurus Moon, so your levels of energy start to increase. You'll enjoy this happy state of affairs throughout the rest of the year. You'll feel renewed initiative and impetus, and may even want to revive projects that you thought had fallen by the wayside forever. It's a fabulous opportunity to take more exercise because that will help to burn off any excess nervous energy. Exciting colours are viridian and mixed shades. Lucky numbers are 3 and 10.
 
Between now and next February you're going to have a whale of a time! That's especially true where your love life is concerned, because you'll feel very loving and really rather raunchy. But take care not to confuse love with lust, which could easily happen if you get swept off your feet by someone you fancy. But no matter what the state of your heart, this will be a very energetic and lively time for you. Romantic colours are lilac and purple. Lucky numbers are 4 and 6.
 
There are tensions over the cost of a forthcoming plan or a social event. Maybe you simply don't see how you'll be able to raise the money, or perhaps a friend has the sort of expensive tastes that you can't keep up with. This will be disappointing, but something will be salvaged from it. It doesn't have to be a complete disaster. Liberating colours are pale jade and rich maroon. Lucky numbers are 4 and 6.
 
Your relationships become even more important to you than usual from today, and this state of affairs will continue until the middle of next February. During this time you'll get annoyed with partners if you think they aren't putting as much effort into the relationship as you. You could also get easily irritated by other people's funny little quirks. Try to be patient! Creative colours are dark green and azure. Lucky numbers are 8 and 3.
 
Today marks the start of a long period in which you'll feel much more daredevil and enterprising than usual. You'll enjoy taking the odd risk and will also jump at the merest hint of an adventure or challenge. If anything, the problem will be in knowing where your limitations lie and not taking on projects that are too big for you to handle. Favourable colours are oyster and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 16 and 47.
 
Between now and February it's a fantastic time to keep on the move as much as possible. You'll have plenty of energy and will enjoy making the most of it, particularly if that means keeping fit at the same time. But do be careful if you drive a car or motorbike because you'll want to go fast, and that could turn out to be rather dangerous. So no speeding! Ideal colours are hazelnut and pastel green. Lucky numbers are 39 and 71.
 
This Thursday marks a major landmark in the year, because from now until next February you need to focus your energies on whatever and whoever means most to you. This might involve spending more time with your nearest and dearest, devoting yourself to an important pastime or concentrating on increasing your financial security. So get started now! Energising colours are marmalade and plum. Lucky numbers are 25 and 69.
 
Unfortunately you're still feeling rather miserable and sorry for yourself, especially if circumstances now seem to be conspiring against you. Try to stay cheerful and upbeat, because that's the best way to combat this temporary dip in your emotional well-being. Keep telling yourself that just because you think things are awful it doesn't mean that they're really that bad. Fortunate colours are ultramarine and oyster. Lucky numbers are 30 and 66.
 
You're feeling worn out and put-upon this Thursday, so everything you do becomes a mighty effort. What's more, you're very aware of your current responsibilities and they're weighing heavily on your shoulders. Well, what you need is some light relief, otherwise you'll end the day feeling exhausted and wretched. Try not to work all the hours God sends, either. Energising colours are apricot and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 6 and 43.
 
If yesterday's dreary atmosphere really got to you, you'll feel even more agitated today when all the problems seem to be magnified, or you're left with the unenviable task of sorting them out. Try not to lose your temper with the person you think is responsible for all this hassle, whether that's fair or not. Lucky colours are platinum and burnt sienna. Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
 
Have a look around your home and garden today in case you spot something that needs to be mended or thrown away. You're in a fix-it mood and you'll take pleasure from knowing that you're getting yourself organized, particularly if things have been rather chaotic recently. You might also have an in-depth chat with a member of the family. Expressive colours are primrose yellow and crimson. Lucky numbers are 24 and 61.
 
Look after yourself today because you're feeling a bit miserable. It won't take much to make your mood take a nosedive and end up trailing somewhere around your ankles. The trouble is that you're feeling very pessimistic and you're turning any minor glitches into major headaches. You may also be pole-axed by a lack of confidence or shyness, which won't help. Positive colours are silver and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 35.
 
Sadly, your spirits take a bit of a nosedive today, and you start to see the gloomy side of things. Do your best to rise above this downbeat mood otherwise you'll feel really fed up by the end of the day. If you start to feel really pessimistic, remind yourself that things probably aren't nearly as bad as they seem and that you're over- reacting at the moment. Insightful colours are ultramarine and white. Lucky numbers are 13 and 18.
 
More haste, less speed! It won't take much for you to work yourself up into a major flap today, purely because you've got one eye permanently on the clock and you're trying to get everything done in time. The trouble is that doing everything so quickly is almost bound to lead to silly mistakes and possibly even to some butter-fingered moments. So try to calm down! Positive colours are primrose and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 12 and 31.
 
Your self-confidence gets a nice boost today without making you seem over-the-top or too full of yourself. It's exactly what you need if you're going to a job interview or you're taking part in an important business meeting. You'll give a really good impression to everyone who sees you in action. There could also be news about a pay rise or a perk connected with your current job. Fortunate colours are cocoa and ivory. Lucky numbers are 8 and 31.
 
Patience! It's one of those frustrating days when things don't go the way you want, and you have to cope with delays, disappointments and setbacks. There's little you can do about such things right now, except take them on the chin and be philosophical. If you're travelling on public transport, take something to read in case you're held up. Diplomatic colours are red ochre and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 11 and 34.
 
Why so gloomy? If you're feeling rather low-key and miserable it won't help if you get some bad financial news, such as a hefty bill, or a bank statement that bears grim tidings. Prepare for a delay if you were hoping to receive a payment from someone. A social event might have to be postponed or scaled down, much to your disappointment. What a day! But cheer up, things get better later. Auspicious colours are lemon and tan. Lucky numbers are 13 and 41.
 
You're racing around like nobody's business today, and you'll really enjoy yourself in the process. However, it will be difficult for loved ones to keep up with you, which could be the source of some conflict and impatience on your part. Try to take everything at a relatively steady pace otherwise you could become slightly accident- prone. Ideal colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 27 and 1.
 
Yesterday you were on the ceiling with happiness but today you're on the floor and feeling down. What's wrong? Maybe a loved one isn't around when you need them or there seems to be a wall of silence and disappointment between you. Try not to blow it up into something it's not because that will make it harder for you to restore the status quo and forget all about it when the time comes. Advantageous colours are cobalt blue and lemon. Lucky numbers are 34 and 24.
 
You're at your most dynamic and energetic, making you reluctant to sit around doing nothing. It's a day for being fully occupied, especially if you can concentrate on personal projects rather than those that involve other people. It's a good opportunity to finish off any such projects that you started with good intentions but which have fallen by the wayside since then. Expressive colours are bright yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 46.
 
You're very wrapped up in home and family at the moment, but today you're feeling rather anxious about them. You might be worried about the welfare of a loved one, or there could be difficulties about your home. Don't exaggerate the problem, because that will only upset you and stop you taking constructive action. Think things through and keep calm. Beneficial colours are salmon and white. Lucky numbers are 14 and 28.
 
Take care of yourself today because you aren't feeling nearly as resilient and confident as you've been recently. In fact, your spirits are ready to take a nosedive and you're showing a distinct tendency to be pessimistic and to feel that everything is conspiring against you. It won't help if someone is emotionally or physically unavailable at the moment, because that will make you feel lonely and insecure. Auspicious colours are russet and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 11 and 15.
 
You'll enjoy giving your brain some exercise this Tuesday, although it doesn't have to be in any formal way. For instance, you might read a newspaper article that really makes you think or you could watch a television programme that sparks off your curiosity about something and sends you scurrying off to the internet or an encyclopedia to find out more. Ideal colours are dark pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 39 and 28.
 
On the whole this promises to be a very enjoyable and easy- going day, in which everything works out well for you. Try not to go overboard where your home and work are concerned. For instance, you might get carried away and take on too many commitments or start a task that you can't finish because it's so ambitious. Have fun instead. Prosperous colours are jade and cream. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
 
Once again, you'll be happiest when you're around other people. You won't care what you chat about, as long as you're talking about something. Mind you, it's highly likely that a friend will want to confide in you at some point, so do your best to listen. You may also spend a lot of time on the phone, so it might be a good idea to keep an eye on the cost. Fortunate colours are blond and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
You're full of consideration for others this Tuesday, especially if they've been going through a hard time recently. You'll want to do something to help, even if it's only lending an ear while someone tells you their troubles. Right now you want to make the world a better place, but watch out for the slight possibility of thinking this makes you a special person. Empowering colours are taupe and mango. Lucky numbers are 6 and 13.
 
It's a good day for talking about things that really matter to you, especially if you want to carry on from where you left off yesterday. You'll find it easy to marshal your thoughts, so you'll be analytical and precise. If you've got some outstanding bills that need to be paid, sort them out now while you're thinking along such practical lines. Fortuitous colours are ebony and bright red. Lucky numbers are 5 and 43.
 
The fun isn't over yet because you're still in a lively mood after yesterday's antics. It will be good to give your brain some enjoyable exercise, such as testing your knowledge in a quiz or competition. Any form of travel will be entertaining, too, and you'll value having a change of scene. After all that, you'll enjoy a trip to the cinema or theatre while you have the energy. Favourable colours are dark pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 6 and 49.
 
A certain person is overflowing with enthusiasm today, which is good fun at first but could start to pall after a while. This person could go overboard, or will behave as though whatever has excited them is the best thing to happen in the entire history of the world. He or she may also try to rope you into getting involved as well. Be warned, and then you can have your excuse ready! Practical colours are apricot and amber. Lucky numbers are 33 and 19.
 
You'll really enjoy a trip down memory lane today, or anything else that puts you in a nostalgic and sentimental mood. Why not look through some old keepsakes, or sort out your photograph albums? It's also a great day for staying at home and relaxing in front of the television or lazing in the garden. Propitious colours are mauve and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 8 and 17.
 
If you're a typical Piscean you're kind-hearted at the best of times but you're even more considerate today. It will be difficult for you to walk past someone holding a collecting tin without putting some money into it, or you could be inspired to become a volunteer for a charity that you like to support. Alternatively, you might decide that charity begins at home, and that a loved one needs your help. Fortunate colours are bronze and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 20 and 34.
 
Spare a thought for anyone who's feeling a bit rough or unwell at the moment. They'll appreciate it if you can pay them a visit, give them a ring or even send them a jokey card. You'll also enjoy looking after your loved ones, even if all you can do is make them a cup of tea or give them a hug. If you're feeling tired you'll enjoy some water therapy, such as a long, leisurely bath. Comforting colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 21 and 10.
 
You're in such a great mood, you won't want the day to end. You're feeling optimistic and sunny-tempered, and you're ready to see the light at the end of any tunnel you happen to be facing at the moment. The only snag is that you could get carried away with enthusiasm about something, especially if it could cost you money in the process. Beneficial colours are silvery blue and dark red. Lucky numbers are 27 and 25.
 
You want to create a good impression on others today, so they see you as someone who is jolly, convivial and gregarious. Well, you're all of those things, of course, but try not to take them to extremes because that might not be appreciated. At some point you could encounter someone who seems larger than life and who becomes overpowering after a short while. Propitious colours are fudge and lime. Lucky numbers are 37 and 28.
 
This is a wonderful day for being with people you care about because you'll get a tremendous amount of satisfaction from being near them. You'll enjoy making a fuss of someone special, or maybe they'll be making a fuss of you. If you're going shopping with a loved one you'll have a lot of fun, especially if you're buying items to make your home more cosy or comfortable. Fortuitous colours are lime and golden brown. Lucky numbers are 23 and 71.
 
Efficiency is your middle name, which is great news if you're busy at work. You'll have everything under control, even if you're really operating in a state of organized chaos. If you can spare the money it's a good day for investing in your health, whether that means buying a pot of organic honey or booking up a series of complementary therapies. If you have a pet, he or she will also appreciate a modest pampering session. Favourable colours are smoky quartz and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 20.
 
This is an excellent day for getting yourself organized, especially at work and where money matters are concerned. Pay any bills before they become overdue (or you forget about them), and try to be as efficient as possible if you're at work. If you're in two minds about something, it's a good idea to pick the brains of someone you respect and trust. Beneficial colours are lavender and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 25 and 9.
 
You're eager to have a mini adventure this Monday, so what do you have in mind? You'll enjoy any activity that feels like a challenge, and you'll also relish the prospect of skipping work and doing something much more interesting instead. If that isn't possible, make up for it by letting your hair down when you've finished work for the day. Fortunate colours are scarlet and black. Lucky numbers are 18 and 2.
 
You felt good yesterday and you feel even better today. It's a fabulous day because you're in such a positive and optimistic frame of mind, and as a result you'll attract lots of good experiences and possibly even some great opportunities. It's a particularly favourable day for making contact with someone who lives in another country or has a completely different background to yours. Fortunate colours are black satin and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 25 and 18.
 
Whatever the weather, it feels as though the sun is shining on you. You're happy, content and easy-going this Monday, all of which will help to increase your popularity with everyone you meet. It may only be Monday but you'll enjoy being sociable, preferably in the company of some of your favourite people. If that isn't possible, arrange something for later in the week. Fortunate colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 10 and 38.
 
You're feeling very companionable and you're in the mood to be sociable, so it would be a shame to spend too much time on your own. Besides, you've got so much to say for yourself right now! You'll have plenty of fun if you can get together with friends or neighbours, and you'll also take pleasure in being part of a team. Lucky colours are amethyst and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.
 
Do your best to get out and about at some point today. You'll hate it if you're cooped up in one place all day long and a change of scene will do you good. You'll also be unhappy if you only have yourself for company, because you're in the mood for a good chat with a lively companion. If you've fallen out with someone recently this is a great opportunity to show there are no hard feelings. Favourable colours are cinnamon and bright gold. Lucky numbers are 6 and 57.
 
It's maggoty Monday and you could do with a change of routine. You'll soon get bored if you're expected to do the same old things as usual, so try to vary your schedule in some way. You don't have to do anything drastic, but you'll certainly enjoy being spontaneous now and then. Expect a surprising contact from an old friend or neighbour. Advantageous colours are brown and ginger. Lucky numbers are 38 and 11.
 
You're feeling very sociable, Libra, so it would be a shame to spend too much time on your own. You have a cheery word for everyone you meet, and you're keen to create a harmonious atmosphere too. If your social life has dwindled recently, this is a good opportunity to breathe new life into it by joining a club or association that might contain some soulmates. Favourable colours are red satin and basalt. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
Your emotions are never far from the surface today, so grab the chance to get in touch with your feelings. It's the perfect opportunity for a heart-to-heart with someone, whether you're in a close relationship with them or you simply need to get something off your chest. If that isn't possible you'll benefit from some self-analysis. Beneficial colours are violet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 25 and 68.
 
Work goes really well today, thanks to your practical and sensible attitude, and your ability to concentrate on whatever needs to be done. There's no need to feel nervous if you're going to a big meeting or a job interview because you'll give such a good impression of yourself. You'll also do well if you've got to give orders or get other people organized. Empowering colours are black and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 35.
 
Feeling bored or restless? Then don't go near any shops, even if it's your local garage, because you'll end up spending money simply to keep yourself amused. This may not be so bad if you're simply buying a bar of chocolate or the Sunday papers, but it will be a very different story if you're supposed to be saving money and you blow it all on a spree. Auspicious colours are cream and copper. Lucky numbers are 20 and 2.
 
A member of the family is in a funny mood today, making it almost impossible to know what they're going to do next. They're restless and contrary, and they may also find it hard to settle down to anything for long. It won't help to nag them or try to make them toe the line, so do your best to let them go their own sweet way for the time being until they've calmed down again. Harmonious colours are apricot and jade. Lucky numbers are 18 and 54.
 
You need to do something exciting today, and preferably on the spur of the moment. It will be even better if you're with a special person in your life at the time. If you're with children today you can expect them to be slightly unconventional and unruly. They won't like obeying orders, either, which could test your powers of ingenuity if you want them to do what you tell them. Opportune colours are charcoal and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 1 and 16.
 
You could hear something that makes you doubt your sanity today. Maybe someone makes a comment that strikes you as bizarre, or they drop what feels like a bombshell into the conversation. Do your best not to over-react, partly because this will only inspire the person concerned into fresh weirdness and also because you'll find that you're winding yourself up. Auspicious colours are lemon and oyster. Lucky numbers are 28 and 54.
 
You need plenty of variety in your day, or you'll feel bored and restless. Ideally, you should abandon your usual schedule if it doesn't appeal to you and do something completely different instead. If that isn't possible, at least try to have plenty of breaks and do something spontaneous when you get the chance. The one thing you don't want is to feel as though you're a robot who's just obeying orders. Lively colours are persimmon and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 25 and 30.
 
Today's mood is in complete contrast to the way you felt yesterday because you're now feeling light-hearted and rather daring. It's great to be so upbeat and you'll want to make the most of it. You're keen to do things on the spur of the moment, especially if they involve travel, education, spirituality or international matters. Beneficial colours are beige and navy. Lucky numbers are 29 and 57.
 
Have you been taking a partner too much for granted recently? If so, you need to do something about it today. Try making a big fuss of your partner for a change. This isn't a good day for restricting anyone's movements and clipping their wings, because they want to feel like a free spirit and will soon cut up rough if this doesn't happen. Fortunate colours are pink velvet and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 2 and 8.
 
There's no knowing what a friend will do or say today. Someone is behaving very oddly and erratically, and you may find it difficult to cope with this for long. You may also suspect that they're going out of their way to be shocking or controversial, in which case your shocked reaction will actually encourage them to be even more outrageous. Strong colours are teal and sienna. Lucky numbers are 24 and 44.
 
Are you feeling bored? If so, you should be very wary about spending much money because you could easily persuade yourself to splash out recklessly on things that you don't really need. Not good news, especially if you're making free with the joint account you share with your partner. You could also have a reckless flirtation with someone purely to keep yourself amused. Empowering colours are golden honey and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 34 and 28.
 
Mind your step today because you're feeling distracted and could easily come a cropper as a result. For instance, you might leave something on the floor and immediately trip over it because you've forgotten that it's there. Your energy levels are quite erratic now, so try to pace yourself and don't skimp on decent food, either. Expansive colours are fawn and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 37 and 52.
 
Forget being with people who are predictable or conventional. Right now, you long for someone who's a real live wire, and preferably a bit weird with it. You'll enjoy having some intellectual conversations that allow you to engage your considerable brain. There could also be a surprise encounter with a neighbour or close relative, and this will give you plenty to think about. Expressive colours are marzipan and bright orange. Lucky numbers are 37 and 41.
 
You'll have your work cut out for you if you're supposed to be doing something responsible or complicated today because your mind won't be on the job for more than two seconds at a time. If possible, you should postpone such tasks until you're more in the mood for them, to avoid making irritating mistakes through lack of concentration. Favourable colours are amethyst and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 6 and 12.
 
With Mercury retrograde, there could be a few crossed wires during the next three weeks. Do your best to mean what you say and say what you mean. Be extremely careful to read the small print in any contracts or agreements, in case it tells you of snags or problems you wouldn't otherwise know about. It's no good being wise after the event, so make sure you're clued up in advance. Auspicious colours are nutmeg and russet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 43.
 
If you want to get ahead you need to cultivate some influential friends, and that's exactly what you have to do during the next few weeks. This doesn't mean sucking up to people in power but it does involve being nice to them and trying to get to know them as human beings. You might also embark on a relationship with someone who's either much older or much younger than you. Revealing colours are plum and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 6 and 66.
 
Take care because there could be some communication glitches between you and loved ones during the next three weeks. It's nothing to worry about, but you should be aware of the possibility of crossed wires and confusion. If you're in the middle of buying or selling property, be sure to read the small print very carefully, and preferably get someone else to check it as well. This isn't a good time to take chances or trust to luck. Stable colours are mahogany and honey. Lucky numbers are 28 and 30.
 
Mercury is now retrograde, so there will be times during the next three weeks when you have to mind your Ps and Qs with loved ones to avoid them getting the wrong impression. This won't be anything very serious, but nevertheless there could be occasions when you're at cross purposes. When planning social events, make sure that everyone concerned agrees about where and when to meet. Opportunistic colours are ruby red and navy. Lucky numbers are 15 and 10.
 
Watch out because communications won't always flow smoothly during the next couple of weeks. There could be subtle hiccups that you aren't aware of at the time but which will cause their own brand of havoc. Be especially wary of saying anything that could be badly misunderstood or which would be dynamite if it reached the wrong ears. Dynamic colours are champagne and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 9 and 41.
 
You're the great romantic of the zodiac at the best of times, but you'll be even more starry-eyed from today, and this phase will last until mid-August. It's wonderful for disappearing into a sentimental world of your own, and you'll be very susceptible to all things romantic. You might even get involved in a secret relationship that no one is supposed to know about. Romantic colours are hyacinth and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 15.
 
This is a marvellous day for taking a long, hard look at your current financial position and working out where you stand. This is no time to kid yourself or to be unrealistic, but nor will it help to frighten yourself by looking on the gloomy side or by imagining the worst possible outcome. If in doubt, get in touch with an expert who can give you some sensible advice. Advantageous colours are coffee and cream. Lucky numbers are 37 and 27.
 
Partnerships are high on the agenda from today, as you embark on a phase in which you're happiest when you're with other people. This will be a great opportunity to spend more time with your other half or with special friends, or maybe you'll be swept off your feet by someone new and disappear into a romantic whirlwind? You'll want to please everyone, but you must realize that sometimes that's simply not possible. Favourable colours are bright red and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 2 and 47.
 
A certain person is in a very serious mood today. They may even be rather po-faced and humourless, making you want to ask them what's wrong. Well, why don't you? Maybe something's wrong that you could help them with, or perhaps they simply need a shoulder to cry on. If you meet someone for the first time today your relationship will always be slightly restrained but the good news is that it could last for a very long time. Beneficial colours are caramel and avocado. Lucky numbers are 34 and 51.
 
You're in a very practical and efficient state today. You don't want to waste your time or energy on anything or anyone that isn't serious and worthwhile, and you'll want to give everyone a really good impression of yourself. But don't get so bogged down in being grown-up and sensible that you start to feel miserable or you take all the joy out of the day. Ideal colours are oyster and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 35 and 38.
 
You're in a serious mood today, so don't waste time on anything you consider to be superficial. Try not to be too miserable or sensible though, because that will soon make you depressed and pessimistic. It's a wonderful day to make some informed decisions about your finances, especially if you're considering making any long-term investments. Beneficial colours are claret and blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 13.
 
No one could accuse you of not taking life seriously, Scorpio. If anything, you're taking it far too seriously and are in danger of losing your sense of humour. You're also feeling overwhelmed by your current responsibilities, possibly even to the point where you don't know what to do first. Your hard work will be very impressive, but don't slog yourself into the ground. Steady colours are brass and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 15 and 62.
 
From today until this time next month, you'll be strongly focused on your deepest emotions. This won't always be a comfortable experience for you, especially if you're the sort of Capricorn who finds it difficult to open up emotionally. But it will be a worthwhile exercise and it will help you to grow closer to certain people in your life. Propitious colours are golden honey and magenta. Lucky numbers are 12 and 29.
 
Your values and priorities in life will be highlighted during the next four weeks, making you realize exactly what and who is important to you at the moment. You won't want to spend a lot of time on anything that you don't consider to be important, although sometimes that may be unavoidable. You may also get the urge to splurge, so watch those pennies! Fortunate colours are silver and green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 21.
 
Your ambitions will be very important to you during the next four weeks, and there will even be times when you'll be very single-minded about them. Do your best to forge ahead without becoming ruthless or obsessed, because then you'll lose other people's goodwill and everything will become more of a struggle. Fortunate colours are jade and copper. Lucky numbers are 4 and 14.
 
Opportunities abound today, so keep your eyes peeled for them. Don't imagine that they'll hang around for ages, waiting for you to notice them, either, because they might elude your grasp. Travel plans will also look good during the next four weeks, especially if you'll be visiting somewhere for the first time. It's going to be an exhilarating and eye-opening month! Beneficial colours are iridescent orange and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 36 and 12.
 
Great news! From today you embark on a month-long phase in which your spirits rise and your social life improves. It will also be a brilliant time for expressing yourself creatively and artistically, in whichever way most appeals. Burn off your increased energy by doing something sporty or athletic, especially if it offers you the chance to compete against others because you'll be determined to beat them! Beneficial colours are cobalt blue and peach. Lucky numbers are 34 and 74.
 
Your work and daily routine will be highlighted during the next four weeks, so prepare for a busy time. You might decide that you want to change jobs or that the pattern of your days needs to be altered in some way.

Lucky numbers are 26 and 6.
 
Get set for a hectic four weeks, in which you'll have plenty to keep you occupied. There are many more social contacts than usual, which is saying something for a Gemini, so beware of burning the candle at both ends in order to fit all your commitments. It's a particularly good opportunity to get more involved in your local environment, taking part in a neighbourhood project or junket. Soaring colours are spearmint and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
You've been uncharacteristically quiet and withdrawn recently but you start to emerge from your shell today and you'll continue to feel outgoing and confident for the next four weeks. In fact, this is a super opportunity to put yourself first and to concentrate on personal matters, although there will inevitably be times when you have to put other people's needs before your own. Auspicious colours are mandarin and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 13 and 10.
 
Today you embark on a four-week phase in which you'll want to hide away from people every now and then and have plenty of time to yourself.

Look on this as your chance to recharge your batteries before a much busier phase that starts in a month's time. Favourable colours are bronze and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 32 and 17.
 
Recently, you've been concentrating on your career, long-term plans and your reputation, but the focus shifts from today and switches to your hopes and dreams for the future.

Beneficial colours are persimmon and claret. Lucky numbers are 10 and 28.
 
During the next four weeks you'll feel a strong yearning to be with people you know well. You won't feel nearly as comfortable whenever you're with strangers, and may even make excuses not to meet them at the moment because you simply don't feel up to it. This will also be a great time to devote yourself wholeheartedly to close friends and family, and to revel in their company. Bright colours are maroon and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
 
Relationships are your main focus for the coming four weeks, so get ready to spend a lot of time with some of the people in your life. This is when you should be concentrating on teamwork rather than trying to do things on your own, even if it's only a temporary measure. Being with other people will help to establish your sense of your own identity, and very valuable it will be, too. Revealing colours are lemon and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 33 and 18.
 
It's time to put the finishing touches to a creative project you've been working on recently, and preferably to do so within the next two weeks.

Ideal colours are turquoise and lime. Lucky numbers are 26 and 17.
 
Today's Full Moon, a rare Blue Moon, will have a big impact on your domestic life during the next two weeks. For instance, you may realize that you've been neglecting a member of the family recently and you need to make it up to them, or you may have to juggle the demands of home with those of your working life. If you've put your home on the market you might suddenly get a buyer. Careful colours are peach and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 10 and 47.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a dramatic impact on your health during the next two weeks. This might be when you decide it's time to stop a bad habit, such as smoking, and to take yourself in hand.

Favourable colours are cream and toffee. Lucky numbers are 4 and 18.
 
Today's Full Moon, a rare Blue Moon, will put plenty of emphasis on your relationships during the coming fortnight. Unfortunately, this won't always be an enjoyable experience because it will stir up residual problems and grievances that have been waiting to see the light of day. You might also realize some uncomfortable truths about one of the people in your life, making you wonder what your next step should be. Steady colours are marigold and sepia. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.
 
Today's Full Moon is telling you to sort out your finances during the next two weeks, especially if you've been overspending and it's time to pull in your horns.

Lucky numbers are 38 and 17.
 
Under a rare Blue Moon in your mid-heaven, you need to consider all the ins and outs of your career.

Today's Full Moon shines the spotlight on your personal life, and over the next two weeks it will highlight any flaws that need your attention.

Or you may reach the end of a big chapter in your life and get ready to start something new. Fortunate colours are ginger and spring green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 9.
 
You need to turn your attention to your finances during the coming fortnight, especially if you failed to make much impact on this area of your life last month. It's no good hoping that nasty things such as bills and credit card statements will vanish of their own accord, so you need to take action now. Otherwise, things could go from bad to worse. Propitious colours are bright red and platinum. Lucky numbers are 1 and 21.
 
Today's Full Moon is telling you to face up to some of your fears. That way, you can start to deal with them. But brushing them under the carpet and pretending they don't exist won't make them go away. If that's been your MO recently then you'll be forced to do something constructive about these fears within the next couple of weeks. Far better to do it voluntarily now than to be forced into it later on when a crisis erupts. Stabilising colours are black and silver. Lucky numbers are 34 and 28.
 
Today's Full Moon, a rare Blue Moon, urges you to examine a situation from every angle during the coming fortnight.

Try to avoid getting on your moral high horse because that will be a distraction. Beneficial colours are salmon and lavender. Lucky numbers are 16 and 70.
 
During the coming two weeks today's Full Moon will affect some of your long-term plans.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 45.
 
You need to get at the truth during the coming fortnight, especially if someone is obscuring it with a lot of hot air or they're trying to blind you with science. You may have to carry out your own independent research before you feel able to work out what's been going on. You might also have to make a decision about a child's education or their current behaviour. Emotional colours are terracotta and platinum. Lucky numbers are 19 and 48.
 
Taurus is strong and capable, but don't take on too much today, just because you're convinced that you can handle it. You may find out that you can't, which will be the cause of embarrassment on your part and irritation on someone else's. Be wary of saddling yourself with too many chores or offering to take on work that you can't do. Energising colours are burgundy and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 3.
 
You need to vary your routine today, especially if it shows all the signs of being predictable and mundane. So do something spontaneous and free-spirited in your lunch-hour, or rearrange your plans so you can shift some of the more mind-numbing tasks to another day.

It's a day when you need plenty of variety, otherwise you'll start to feel bored and restless.

They'll help to keep you on your toes, not only mentally but also emotionally and creatively. Fortunate colours are cream and copper. Lucky numbers are 30 and 42.
 
You're in the mood to give yourself a treat today, such as buying yourself something nice.

Sadly, this may be a lot easier said than done! Expressive colours are mushroom and toffee. Lucky numbers are 30 and 51.
 
Friends are great fun this Wednesday, especially if you get together on the spur of the moment and do whatever seems like a good idea at the time.

Fortunate colours are avocado and sable. Lucky numbers are 25 and 48.
 
You're in the mood to devote some time to your home comforts today, especially if you're planning to improve your home in some way. You might decide to look round some interior design or decorating shops to see what's available, but if so you should bear in mind that you could quickly blow your budget because you get completely carried away by enthusiasm. Stable colours are sienna and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 17 and 39.
 
If you're a typical Scorpio you often take comfort from sticking to a particular routine and doing things in a certain way, but today you're keen to do things as the mood takes you and to be as spontaneous as possible. It will also help if you can switch from one activity to another according to your whims, so there's little likelihood of you getting bored. Ideal colours are snow white and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 22 and 39.
 
A certain person is rather full of themselves today. They may boast about something that they've achieved, or about something they own, and it's amusing at first although it could get a bit wearing after a while. It may be tempting but don't try to play them at their own game because trying to outdo them will reflect badly on you. Just let them get on with it! Fortunate colours are fawn and violet. Lucky numbers are 30 and 15.
 
You need plenty of variety today, otherwise you'll start to feel bored. So try to vary your routine whenever you get the chance, even if it means doing your usual chores in a different order.

Opportune colours are pale pink and ivory. Lucky numbers are 14 and 22.
 
Optimism oozes out of every pore today, putting you in a very good mood. As far as you're concerned, everything's coming up roses and you're having a great time.

You'd much prefer to laze around doing as little as possible or visiting somewhere that has always fascinated you. Expressive colours are mulberry and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 40.
 
You're feeling pretty good, Cancer. Things are going well and there's a lot to feel cheerful about.

Fancy spending some money?

It's another day when you want to push yourself further than usual, whether you do so mentally, physically or emotionally.

Try not to make this into an exercise of power or might, in which you improve yourself at the expense of others. Ideal colours are lavender and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 43.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance. You may have to fit in lots of work around these enjoyable interludes, of course, but at least you can have some fun.

Romance is also looking good for you today and you can expect some delightful ego boosts from you-know-who. Auspicious colours are marzipan and auburn. Lucky numbers are 40 and 42.
 
It's another gregarious day for you, and if anything you'll be even more charming than you were yesterday. It's perfect for chatting someone up!

Romantic colours are cream and lilac. Lucky numbers are 23 and 5.
 
You're feeling very sensitive today, so bear that in mind when you start to get upset about something that wouldn't normally faze you.

An old score may also get to you, making you dream of getting your revenge. Inspirational colours are brass and navy. Lucky numbers are 21 and 43.
 
You're bouncing about full of beans with a great deal of energy and enthusiasm. You're even willing to tackle a few tasks that you've been putting off recently, which is pretty good going!

It's another day for mixing with the people who live close to you, but today you need to make as much use of your innate tact as possible.

Never mind if it was all their fault. What's important is to clear the air of all bad feeling. Ideal colours are chocolate and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 39 and 28.
 
You've bags of energy today, especially at work. You're prepared to put a lot of effort into whatever you're doing, especially if that means you can save some valuable time that could be spent on more exciting ventures.

Favourable colours are dark grape and pearl. Lucky numbers are 6 and 15.
 
It's one of those days when you've no desire to sit around wasting time, especially if you're at work.

Ideally, you should take lots of exercise, such as going to the gym or health club or going for a brisk walk. Receptive colours are olive and bronze. Lucky numbers are 18 and 24.
 
Someone is taking themselves very seriously today. In fact, they seem to think they're ever so important, and that you should treat them as someone who's much higher up the food chain than you.

Don't worry, though, because they'll soon get over this high and mighty mood. Ideal colours are black and white. Lucky numbers are 19 and 41.
 
You feel like spending some money on your home or family, Taurus. It doesn't matter whether you're shelling out thousands or only a modest amount, because the satisfaction and pleasure will be the same.

Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
The more restrictive and dull today's schedule is, the more you'll want to liven it up. But will you be able to?

It will be good fun at the time, of course, but what an embarrassment when you've calmed down! Revealing colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 22 and 71.
 
Ideally, you should get in touch with some special friends today. You don't want to be with just anyone but you'll certainly appreciate the company of people who are dear to your heart, and even more so if you don't have to make a big effort when you're with them.

You might even decide to do this formally, by going to college or university, or by enrolling in a distance-learning course. It may be hard work but the results will more than make up for that. Ideal colours are fawn and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 33 and 59.
 
You embark on a very serious phase from today and it will last for the next two years. During this time you'll want to work hard at building up your reputation so you're taken seriously by other people. Your ambitions will also take up a lot of your energy and time, so you'll have to guard against them almost completely taking over your life. Keep things in proportion. Auspicious colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 31 and 36.
 
It's another brilliant day for making some positive changes to your relationships, but this time you need to concentrate on your friendships. If you meet someone for the first time today they'll make a big impact on you and you may even feel that you've met them for a special reason that has yet to be revealed. Has destiny taken control of your life? Ideal colours are cream and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 28 and 77.
 
Do your best to stay positive and practical during the coming two years, especially when dealing with things that have the power to scare or worry you. Try to stick to the facts rather than to let your fears get out of control, because once you start to panic you won't know when to stop. So stay focused and don't let pessimism get the better of you. Ideal colours are peach blossom and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 33 and 7.
 
During the next two years you'll be encouraged to spend a lot of time and effort on boosting your financial reserves. That might mean taking out a pension or investing in stocks and shares, so you're planning for your future. It won't be a time for frittering away your cash, but with some prudent moves you'll be able to increase your money and your overall sense of security. Expressive colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 65.
 
Your feelings are intense and passionate today, and you'll invest a lot of time and energy in the activities and people that you consider to be important. If you fancy going shopping, you'll be drawn to status symbols and other items that make you stand out from the crowd, especially if they make an important statement about who and what you are. Fortunate colours are pistachio and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 12 and 11.
 
Relationships come under scrutiny during the coming two years. Any alliances that are already looking shaky will come under a lot more stress, so you either have to strengthen them or let them crumble, but partnerships that are already solid will become even firmer. The new people who come into your life will be serious, rather conservative and pillars of strength that you can lean on. Dynamic colours are silver and russet. Lucky numbers are 21 and 41.
 
Part of the backdrop of your life alters today, and during the next couple of years you'll want to put a lot of effort into the side of your life that allows you to express your true self. You might achieve a great deal creatively, for instance, if that appeals, or you could put a lot of care into your love life. But whatever you do, don't turn it into hard work or a rod for your own back. Beneficial colours are marmalade and navy. Lucky numbers are 15 and 56.
 
You have a tremendous ability to make big changes to your life today, especially where your private or home life is concerned. For instance, if a relationship isn't going very well at the moment you might suggest that you talk about the problems with the person concerned and find solutions that suit both of you. Communicative colours are vanilla and copper. Lucky numbers are 14 and 53.
 
It's time to focus on your hopes and dreams for the future, because you stand a good chance to make some of them happen. Think about what you want to achieve and work out a plan of campaign. After all, your ambitions rarely come true without some effort on your part. You should enlist someone's help, provided that you give them the credit they deserve. Inspirational colours are violet and russet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 57.
 
You have the ability to transform your life in some way today, especially where your finances and your career are concerned. You could land a fabulous job or be offered the promotion you've wanted for so long. If all these things are still in the future, don't be discouraged from working towards them, even if it takes a while. You can do it! Auspicious colours are honeycomb and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 20 and 58.
 
This is a fantastic day for being busy at work, especially if you have an important deadline or you really want to impress someone. It's also very fortuitous if you're thinking of making some significant changes to your working life, such as applying for promotion or a better-paid job. Keep your goals in mind and keep plodding on. Stabilising colours are sky blue and shimmering white. Lucky numbers are 1 and 50.
 
You're in the mood to make some creative changes to your world today. You don't even feel any sense of trepidation or anxiety because you're convinced that you're doing the right thing. It's a fabulous day for booking up a holiday or arranging a long-distance journey, especially if you suspect that it will have a profound impact on your life. So go on, what are you waiting for? Ideal colours are crimson and amber. Lucky numbers are 8 and 76.
 
This is a brilliant day for making some changes to your life. Have you got a long-cherished dream that you wish could become reality? Then why not make it happen now? Even if you start the ball rolling it will be a step in the right direction, so don't imagine it has to be all or nothing. Once you get going you won't want to stop. Beneficial colours are jade and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 20 and 18.
 
You have tremendous willpower and drive this Friday, so put them to good use. You're in one of those moods in which you feel you could do almost anything, and you're particularly interested in rising to challenges. You obviously feel that you've got something to prove, but don't take things to extremes or inflict your desires on others against their will. Auspicious colours are bronze and violet. Lucky numbers are 15 and 69.
 
You have tremendous reserves of willpower today, even if you aren't really aware of them. You'll put a lot of effort into anything you feel strongly about or which arouses your deepest emotions, and you'll feel quite defensive if your opinions are challenged. This is a great day for making some constructive changes to a very private or personal part of your life, and once you set the ball rolling the results will amaze you. Favourable colours are burgundy and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 32 and 42.
 
You have the potential to make some constructive and creative changes to your life today, so don't let them pass you by. If you suspect that you need to take yourself in hand, do it now while you're in the right frame of mind and you feel able to rise to the challenge. A loved one, such as a child or partner, could also have a catalytic effect on you right now. Inspirational colours are coffee and mango. Lucky numbers are 15 and 54.
 
This is an excellent day for making improvements to some of your relationships, especially if you intend these changes to be long- lasting. Mind you, you must be prepared to keep to your side of the bargain and to do what you can to improve the situation, rather than to expect the other person to make all the concessions. Practical colours are lemon and navy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 35.
 
You're capable of making some important changes to your life today, especially if these are connected with emotional or financial matters. Maybe you've been putting off doing something and now you're finally ready to swing into action? There could also be some intense and highly personal moments between you and a very special person. Expressive colours are pale gold and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 37 and 66.
 
You have a tremendous amount of willpower today, in true Scorpio style. It will carry you through the day in great style, and will also help you to reach decisions. Right now you're really only interested in doing things that have a lot of meaning for you, but you must understand that other people may not share your priorities and you have to respect that. Fortunate colours are lavender and ivory. Lucky numbers are 5 and 21.
 
Get set for a trying day in which you're bombarded with information, phone calls and other demands on your time, especially if you're trying to meet a tight deadline or cope with a busy schedule. Take care of whatever is most important and let any trivia wait until another day, otherwise you'll run yourself ragged and end up making silly mistakes. Cool it! Fortunate colours are burnt orange and lemon. Lucky numbers are 39 and 45.
 
There's a clash today between one person's need for emotional stability and another person's desire to be independent and unfettered by expectations. Neither will be prepared to budge an inch, so get ready for a stalemate if you're one of the two people concerned. There could also be a rumpus about the cost of a forthcoming social event. Auspicious colours are lemon and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 24 and 32.
 
Take it gently today because you're easily rattled. Maybe an older relative or your boss does entirely the wrong thing to make you seethe, or perhaps you simply got out of the wrong side of bed this morning? There's also a chance that responsibilities and duties are weighing you down, so you feel as though you've got the cares of the world on your shoulders. Favourable colours are coffee and silver. Lucky numbers are 16 and 30.
 
People easily get on your nerves today, and the better you know them the more likely they are to drive you round the bend. This means that you could end up snapping and snarling at your nearest and dearest, simply because they've got such an uncanny knack of getting under your skin. Channel all this aggression into something constructive and you'll feel much better. Beneficial colours are burnt orange and silver. Lucky numbers are 18 and 7.
 
Someone is in a very bossy and controlling mood today, as you'll soon discover. They keep telling you what to do, particularly if it isn't really any of their business. Do yourself a favour and don't make a partner jealous or suspicious of you because they'll turn into a human bloodhound, determined to sniff out what's really going on. Even if it's nothing at all. Propitious colours are khaki and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 36 and 33.
 
Can you keep firm control over what you say today? You may think you can, but you'll surprise yourself when you reveal the very thing you were supposed to keep quiet about. There's also a strong chance that you could make a politically incorrect statement that someone picks up on, much to your embarrassment. Ideal colours are magenta and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 22 and 50.
 
Watch out for clashes today between you and a friend or acquaintance, especially if money is the root cause of the problem. You might fall out over the cost of something or you may have differing expectations of one another that lead to resentment when they aren't fulfilled. There's also a chance that you could fall out when you disagree over your priorities in life. Fortunate colours are grape and baby pink. Lucky numbers are 6 and 44.
 
Love and money don't mix today, because it will only lead to arguments and resentment. You might have a dispute with a child or other loved one over their spendthrift nature, or because you don't approve of something they've bought. It's not a good idea to lend or borrow money, either, because there could be an argument about what it will be used for. Fortunate colours are charcoal and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 56.
 
Family matters leave a lot to be desired today. You're feeling slightly defensive, and as a result it seems that everyone is trying to get at you. An old problem or past grievance may also come back to haunt you, which doesn't exactly help matters. Do your best to keep calm and not to blow trivial problems into major dramas. Soothing colours are peach and cream. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
 
Feeling tense and anxious? You have too much on your plate right now and you're wondering how on earth you're going to get through it all. It's one of those days when you feel hassled and fretful, and everything is in danger of getting on top of you. Relax, take a deep breath and tackle things in their order of priority. You can't do more than that. Ideal colours are smoky quartz and ruby red. Lucky numbers are 27 and 17.
 
There's a lot of tension in the air at the moment and you're very aware of it. It would be better to get things off your chest with a shouting match if necessary, than to pretend that everything is okay while silently seething or feeling resentful. The trouble is that you may be annoyed with someone who you feel you can't shout at, such as your boss or an elderly relative. If so, you'll have to let off steam in some other way. Insightful colours are caramel and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 35 and 46.
 
Your feelings are very near the surface today, but will they spill over? The likelihood is that they will, and they could create a bit of a fuss in the process. For instance, you might get so churned up about something that you say too much, or you could be so distracted by your own private thoughts that you say the wrong thing and put your foot in it. Try to think before you speak, Leo! Auspicious colours are burgundy and ivory. Lucky numbers are 21 and 7.
 
Be very choosy about who and what you believe now. Someone may be trying to fool you, whether they're doing it as a joke or for more nefarious reasons, and you'll easily fall for it unless you can keep your wits about you. However, you may also be rather confusing right now, so make an effort to be as straightforward and precise as possible. Favourable colours are burgundy and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 33 and 15.
 
Yesterday it was your heart that played tricks on you but today it's your mind that's playing games. This means you might completely misinterpret what someone says to you, so you get totally the wrong end of the stick or you imagine that this person has said one thing when actually they've said the complete opposite. Do yourself a favour and try to be as straightforward as possible when talking to people. And if you don't understand something, ask! Favourable colours are cream and aqua. Lucky numbers are 10 and 29.
 
Watch out because it's hard to keep track of your thoughts today. They seem to be meandering all over the place, making it almost impossible to concentrate on anything for long. This means it's the best day for focusing on anything very important because you simply won't be able to do it, especially if your thoughts keep straying towards a certain person. It feels as though you've been bewitched by them. Fortunate colours are shimmering green and ochre. Lucky numbers are 40 and 7.
 
Someone isn't making much sense. They may have got their facts wrong or their wires crossed, so you need to take what they say with a hefty pinch of salt. However, you may also have got yourself in a bit of a muddle, especially if you're letting your heart rule your head. Right now, you only want to see the best of everyone and will ignore all their faults. Opportune colours are crimson and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 10 and 61.
 
It's another day when you need to stay on your toes. Your natural state right now is to have your head in the clouds, which is great if you're doing something that requires a vivid imagination and an ability to day-dream, but isn't such good news if you're supposed to be logical and practical. Perhaps you should postpone any important decisions until another day? Auspicious colours are brilliant white and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 17 and 57.
 
Be very careful when handling your finances today because there are some strange goings-on to deal with. Ideally, you should avoid handling any sort of financial transaction in case some important information is being withheld from you. If you have no choice in the matter, make sure that you're as straightforward as possible and don't have any hidden agendas that could come back to haunt you. Fortunate colours are magenta and snow white. Lucky numbers are 39 and 42.
 
The truth is very elusive this Wednesday so be careful what you believe. Someone may try to tell you that black is white, and they might even succeed because they're so plausible. If you're going on a journey you should be prepared for delays and confusion. You must also double-check that you've got everything you need before you set off. Beneficial colours are platinum and dark green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 45.
 
Secrets have a habit of blowing up in your face today so do your best to get things out into the open whenever possible. Hedging your bets, only telling half the story and other ways of letting yourself off the hook will only come back to haunt you, so take a deep breath and tell it how it is. However, there's no guarantee that others will be telling you the truth, so don't take everything you hear as gospel. Expressive colours are silvery grey and avocado. Lucky numbers are 55 and 61.
 
Watch out today because there's a lot of confusion in the air, especially when you're dealing with domestic and official matters. Someone might get in a muddle about what you've told them to do, or they may be deliberately trying to pull the wool over your eyes. Try not to sign any important documents today because you might have overlooked some vital facts. Auspicious colours are blonde and black satin. Lucky numbers are 9 and 7.
 
Be very careful when handling money this Wednesday because it will be horribly easy to make some silly mistakes. For instance, you might hand over too much cash to someone who isn't honest enough to point out your mistake, or there could be a completely innocent financial slip-up that still ends up costing you dear. Keep a firm grip on your belongings when you're out and about, too. Auspicious colours are spring green and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 25 and 17.
 
Be careful because it's one of those tricky days when there's an awful lot of scope for getting things wrong without realizing what's happening. Communications are looking dicey, with the potential for lots of crossed wires and misunderstandings, especially if you're at work, you're taking your pet to the vet or you've got a medical appointment. Spell things out and don't assume that everyone understands what you're talking about. Ideal colours are cherry pink and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 16 and 3.
 
Crossed wires are almost inevitable today because communications hit a low point. Do your best to be straightforward and honest when talking to friends and loved ones, and don't imagine that they're able to read between the lines to discover the subtle nuances of what you're saying because that isn't possible right now. So spell it out! Auspicious colours are pale gold and oyster. Lucky numbers are 9 and 66.
 
Hold your horses! You're feeling angry and irritable, and you're very eager to take it out on whoever comes within firing range. What's wrong? Sort out your problems with the person concerned but don't make everyone the butt of your bad temper. If you do lose your rag with someone, it will be short and sharp. However, resist the temptation to go for the jugular. Soothing colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 22 and 9.
 
You have one eye on the clock today, which means you're trying to do everything much quicker than usual. But will you succeed? Well, you will if you can control your temper, and not waste valuable time and effort on getting yourself into a flap. But will that be possible? Frustratingly, it seems that you could easily end up going round in circles as you get increasingly het up about all the things you've got to do. Emotional colours are sage green and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 26 and 25.
 
Someone's in a real hurry today, making it almost impossible to keep pace with them. If this person is you, ask yourself if it's really important to do everything in double-quick time. What's the rush? If it's someone else, you'll have your work cut out for you trying to match their hectic speed. Actually, it may not be possible, despite all their chivvying. Fortunate colours are ivory and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 39.
 
A certain person is in a real hurry today and they want everything done on the double. Unfortunately it won't take much to make them lose their temper if they don't get their own way, so you'll come in for a lot of flak if you let the side down by taking too much time over things. Try to stay calm in the face of all this provocation, otherwise it will be a very exhausting day. Relaxing colours are banana yellow and aqua. Lucky numbers are 22 and 9.
 
Stand by for possible conflict with a friend today, especially over something that happened between you about six months ago. You'll want to defend yourself at all costs, but don't be too proud to admit it if you're in the wrong. You're full of energy right now, and you need to find some positive outlets for it to avoid it turning into a tendency to be irritable and jumpy. Soothing colours are ultramarine and peach. Lucky numbers are 74 and 33.
 
You have a high opinion of a certain person right now and you won't hear a word said against them. The trouble is that you're showing a distinct tendency to bury your head in the sand whenever you get within sniffing distance of a problem and then to pretend that it doesn't exist. You may not feel equipped to deal with difficulties at the moment but you must face up to them soon. Opportune colours are jade and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 43.
 
It's very difficult to keep your feet on the ground and to be objective this Tuesday. You're showing a marked tendency to be idealistic and to only see what you want to see, rather than to observe what's actually going on. Be very careful when dealing with any financial arrangements as you may not be thinking as realistically as usual. You don't want to end up out of pocket. Nice colours are lazuli and sable. Lucky numbers are 33 and 27.
 
Someone is busy sweeping some unpleasant emotions under the carpet today. Is it you, by any chance? If so, you're avoiding the facts about a certain person or doing your best to put as good a spin on their behaviour as possible. You may also be coming up with lots of far-fetched excuses for their recent actions because the truth is too painful for you to contemplate. But you'll have to face facts sooner or later. Ideal colours are bronze and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 77.
 
Life has been rather good lately but it turns slightly pear shaped today, thanks to someone's irascible mood and their tendency to lose their temper at the slightest provocation. Are they looking for an argument, do you think, and therefore manufacturing situations that will give them the opportunity to blow their top? Or are you unconsciously stirring things up because you're looking for a row? Ideal colours are blueberry and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 65.
 
Be careful because your emotions could play tricks on you. For instance, you're likely to be so besotted with a certain person that you're ready to overlook all their faults and to tell yourself how wonderful they are. This is fine if it only lasts for a short time but it's not so good if you continue to ignore this person's perfectly human foibles in the mistaken belief that they're some sort of super- being. Auspicious colours are peach and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 18.
 
Your heart could play tricks on you today, so try not to let yourself be fooled. For instance, you might be completely smitten by someone who isn't a suitable partner or who even, in extreme circumstances, doesn't know that you exist. Yet you will yearn and long for them. You might also put someone on such a lofty pedestal that they're bound to fall off sooner or later. Ideal colours are dusky rose and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 15 and 20.
 
You love someone very much but they don't half get on your nerves today. You seem to have lost all your usual tolerance and understanding, and instead you're ready to yell your head off at the slightest provocation. So what's going on between you? Is this person really the cause of all your irritation or are they simply the focus of an anger that should actually be directed elsewhere? Auspicious colours are mushroom and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 39 and 47.
 
Although you'll still appreciate your own company this Monday, at least you're feeling more emotionally resilient than you were yesterday. You'll be able to stand up for yourself in the remote chance that this might be necessary. Ideally, you should be able to work by yourself and at your own pace today, rather than with stacks of other people. Beneficial colours are mustard yellow and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 17 and 17.
 
It will be a real shame if you spend too much time by yourself today because you're still feeling extremely chatty and outgoing. You'll be a big hit if you're taking part in any sort of social event, and you might even make some new contacts as a result. There could also be a delightful invitation coming your way, or someone's loving comments will make your day. Auspicious colours are brass and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 18 and 26.
 
It's the perfect day for doing some shopping, especially if you can sneak off on your own for a short while. It's not that you're feeling antisocial, simply that you'll appreciate your own company and being able to wander wherever you want to go. If you know someone who's going through a bad time at the moment, this is a lovely day for getting in touch so they know you're thinking of them. Fortunate colours are apricot and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 27 and 71.
 
You're in a very generous mood today, especially when dealing with your partner. That's because you're feeling so easy-going and gregarious, and you're therefore prepared to give people the benefit of the doubt and also to make light of any situations that might normally wind you up or put you on the defensive. There could also be news of someone who lives abroad. Powerful colours are red and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 11 and 26.
 
Friends help to make your world go round today, so try to get together at some point. If that isn't possible because of prior commitments, at least give a chum a ring or send them an email. Alternatively, you might hear from them first, in which case they're bound to get you smiling and feeling cheerful. Empowering colours are vanilla and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 31 and 46.
 
You can achieve a tremendous amount today if you set yourself a target. You're eager to get on with whatever needs to be done, whether at home or at work, and you'll happily delegate any jobs that you think other people could manage. This is a great day for working in tandem with others rather than trying to have everything your own way. Favourable colours are dark gold and copper. Lucky numbers are 28 and 32.
 
Things go really well today, much to your delight. It's one of those nice days when arrangements work out well, people are friendly, and you feel and look good. It would be a shame to spend too much time on your own because you've got so much to offer when you're with other people. If there's been friction with a certain someone recently, try to smooth things over with them today. Fortunate colours are sky blue and spring green. Lucky numbers are 38 and 44.
 
You're feeling efficient and organized this Monday, making it a great start to the week. It's good for sorting through official documents and other important paperwork because you'll do your utmost to get them in order. If you need some advice about a financial matter or you want to apply for a loan or mortgage, this is a good day to make the first move. Fortunate colours are navy and copper. Lucky numbers are 40 and 2.
 
You're a real live wire this Monday. What's more, you're feeling confident and energetic, making it a great day for taking part in discussions and negotiations. You've got a lot to say for yourself at the moment, so you're a very lively and entertaining companion. You'll feel even better if you can have a change of scene at some point. Powerful colours are sapphire blue and emerald. Lucky numbers are 22 and 38.
 
Your spirits are high today, making you feel very gregarious and buoyant. You'll really shine whenever you're with other people, and they'll help to bring out the best in you. You'll enjoy using your brain, perhaps by taking part in an intellectual discussion or by getting involved in a pastime that makes you think. Favourable colours are lapis lazuli and caramel. Lucky numbers are 33 and 48.
 
It's Monday and you're ready to take care of whatever needs to be done, whether it's connected with work or your private life. You don't want to make a big thing out of it, you simply want to tackle it as best you can so you can cross it off your list of things to do. If you've been wondering whether to treat yourself to a complementary therapy or a beauty session, this is a good day to make up your mind and go for it. Expressive colours are dark gold and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 13 and 38.
 
Once again you're in a domesticated mood, and you won't want to stray too far from your own front door. If you do go out, you'll enjoy doing some household shopping, especially if you can track down some bargains or buy some essentials. You'll also recognize the value of loved ones, and how much they mean to you. Dynamic colours are lavender and ebony. Lucky numbers are 30 and 2.
 
You're in a protective and security-conscious mood, and you aren't very keen on the idea of taking emotional, financial or physical risks. You might even feel rather possessive towards loved ones because you're reluctant to let them out of your sight. This isn't a good day for discussing any changes that challenge the stability of your world because they feel like too much of a threat at the moment. Expressive colours are dark green and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 40.
 
Your emotions are near the surface today and could erupt at any minute. Are you feeling particularly stirred up about something, such as a long-range goal or your career? If so, it could prompt you to have an emotional outburst at some point. Your dealings with older friends and relatives will be satisfying and helpful, provided that they don't try to patronize you. Fortuitous colours are dark brown and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 28 and 64.
 
You're wrapped up in your own concerns, thoughts and preoccupations today. That's as it should be this Sunday although there may be times when you'll have to force yourself out of your self- contained mood in order to concentrate on other people instead. If you don't do this they'll accuse you of being too self-obsessed for words and they will definitely have a point. Positive colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 30 and 60.
 
This is a wonderful day for mixing with people and chatting to whoever happens to be around. You'll enjoy keeping up with all the gossip, not to mention spreading some of your own whenever you get the chance. You'll also have fun if you can go shopping, even if you're only looking and don't intend to buy anything. Fortunate colours are navy and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 35 and 54.
 
Your feelings run very deep today, putting you in a much more intense and emotional mood than usual. This is great for exploring your feelings and possibly even thinking about past situations that you usually try to ignore because they're so painful, but there's a chance that it will make you take things much more seriously than you would at other times. This may or may not be a good thing. Favourable colours are cinnamon and violet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 44.
 
You need friends today Scorpio. You need to feel that you're surrounded by people who are on your side and with whom you've got something in common. So you'll be happiest if you can get together with some of your chums, even if you don't do anything very memorable. What you do right now is not as important to you as the way you're feeling. Beneficial colours are lilac and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 38 and 23.
 
Throw yourself into your daily routine and give it all you've got. If you really concentrate on what you're doing, whether it's the washing up or weeding the garden, you'll find it helps you to unwind. At some point you could do someone a favour, especially if they aren't feeling very well or they can't really look after themselves properly. And you'll do it with a good grace, too. Expressive colours are oyster and sage green. Lucky numbers are 34 and 16.
 
You're hankering for your home comforts and for familiar faces, so you won't feel very easy if you find yourself in different surroundings from usual.

You're happiest when you're with other people this Sunday. You're in exactly the right mood to have a convivial time with people you know well, even if you don't do anything very special together.

Empowering colours are blueberry and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 30 and 59.
 
You're in a very affectionate and demonstrative mood, and looking for every opportunity to show it.

Uplifting colours are taupe and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 21 and 39.
 
You need to hide in your shell today, especially if you're confronted by someone you consider to be aggressive or unnerving.

Don't worry, you'll feel better tomorrow. Peaceful colours are grape and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 9 and 55.
 
You have a marvellous ability to say the right thing at the right time, so don't let it go to waste.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 53.
 
If you were charming yesterday you're even more so today. In fact, you can barely put a foot wrong at the moment, because you're saying and doing exactly the right things. It's an especially good day for talking and thinking about your feelings, provided that you don't completely hog the conversation so no one else can get a word in edgeways. That would not be very charming behaviour! Liberating colours are chocolate and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 21 and 8.
 
Whatever you're doing today, try to find the time to talk about some of the things that mean a lot to you.

Someone is exerting an almost fatal attraction over you today, making it hard for you to resist them even if you wanted to, which seems unlikely.

If you suspect that you offended someone yesterday because you disappeared while they were still yakking on about who knows what, do your best to make amends today.

If you're involved in any sort of negotiations at the moment you could come up with some clever arguments, so jot them down. Fortunate colours are ebony and emerald. Lucky numbers are 14 and 20.
 
You're full of diplomacy today, which will come in handy if you spoke out of turn yesterday or you got yourself all worked up about something silly.

Lucky numbers are 25 and 40.
 
You're in a home-loving mood this Friday and won't want to stray too far from your own front door if you can possibly avoid it.

Lucky numbers are 31 and 69.

Auspicious colours are apple blossom and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 3 and 18.
 
Someone close to home is a right old gasbag today. Ask them a question and you'll still be listening to their answer half an hour later, whether you want to or not.

If so, you'll enjoy passing on the latest gossip and then speculating about it. Vibrant colours are mother of pearl and apricot. Lucky numbers are 11 and 31.
 
Ideally, you should be lazing around at home, doing as little as possible. You're feeling delightfully lethargic and lazy, and you don't want to put yourself out in any way if you don't have to.

Stable colours are crimson and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 5 and 29.
 
You're a very clever member of the Zodiac and this is a great day to remind yourself of that fact.

Lucky numbers are 32 and 53.
 
Someone is in an endlessly chatty mood today. They're particularly voluble when it comes to telling you all about their private life, so they might give you too many details for comfort. They may also be in the grip of jealousy about someone or something, in which case they'll really want to let off steam to you. So be prepared to have your ears pinned back for a long time. Expansive colours are smoky quartz and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 11 and 75.
 
You've got a smile and a cheerful greeting for everyone you meet today, which will soon have them eating out of your hand.

If you've got some spare time you'll enjoy devoting it to a favourite pastime. Opportune colours are mandarin and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 14 and 64.
 
Your mind is really agile today, which is great if you want to take part in a brainstorming session or discussion.

You enjoy playing with words this Friday, whether you're making up ghastly puns that have everyone else groaning, pitting your wits against a crossword puzzle or taking part in a quiz.

Opportune colours are avocado and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 12 and 46.
 
Today you relish the chance to talk to some interesting people. You aren't keen on being with anyone who's a bit of a numbskull or who can only talk about what was on television last night.

Beneficial colours are teal blue and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 22 and 18.
 
Can you keep a secret? Let's hope so because you stand a good chance of hearing one today. The trouble is that the person divulging the secrets may not have intended to spill the beans but might simply have got carried away and been unable to stop themselves. Be careful if you're tempted to tell all to someone because they may not be as trustworthy as you would like. Opportune colours are mustard and magenta. Lucky numbers are 24 and 30.
 
If you're hoping to get on with lots of work today, be warned that it may not be easy. That's because a colleague or client is in a chatty mood and they won't know when to shut up. Maybe you could make yourself scarce if you're really busy and they won't stop nattering? The trouble is that they aren't even talking about anything very interesting! Stabilising colours are peach and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 37 and 62.
 
Your imagination is very powerful today, so don't underestimate it because you could turn it to your advantage. Repeatedly telling yourself that something is going to go wrong might easily become a self- fulfilling prophesy, so switch tack and start telling yourself something positive. You may like to repeat a mantra to yourself or practice some sort of creative visualization. Fortunate colours are grape and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 38 and 2.
 
It's essential to have faith in yourself and in other people today because it will move mountains. So keep a positive attitude because it might have some wonderful results.

Beneficial colours are black satin and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 21 and 55.
 
You've got a tender heart at the best of times but it's even softer and more considerate today.

Maybe you're inspired to donate lots of money to Live 8 or another favourite charity? Stabilising colours are aqua and gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
You have more power and potential than you realize today, so don't be modest about your achievements. In fact, you'll be amazed by what you can do now if you put your mind to it.

Auspicious colours are aqua and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 14 and 17.
 
If you're a typical Aquarian you like keeping an eye on other people just to make sure they're OK, and you really excel at that today.

Right now the needs of others are more important than your own requirements, but don't let anyone take advantage of you in the process. Sensitive colours are fire opal and ebony. Lucky numbers are 4 and 17.
 
A friend is worth their weight in gold today, as they magically make something happen or bring you an opportunity that would never have materialized without them.

Positive colours are caramel and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
 
If someone is under the weather, do whatever you can to make them feel better. This might include giving lots of tender loving care and cooking something delicious to eat.

Steady colours are kiwifruit and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 11 and 4.
 
Love and laughter are the best medicines today, and they're both free. So soak up as much of them as possible.

Creative and artistic pastimes will also help you to unwind now. Playful colours are amethyst and apricot. Lucky numbers are 6 and 10.
 
Make the most of your relationships today, especially when you're with people you really care about.

You willingly take care of other people today, especially if they're dear to your heart. If a member of the family is feeling a bit ropy or unhappy, do what you can to make them feel better.

Your visionary powers are working well, whether you're using them in the course of your work or simply for your own amusement.

Beneficial colours are navy and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 28 and 11.
 
A certain person is in a very sunny mood today and prepared to look favourably on you. This is very good news, especially if they're in a position of power or influence over you.

Expansive colours are honeycomb and crimson. Lucky numbers are 23 and 22.
 
Today's New Moon has a revitalising effect on your partnerships during the coming fortnight, especially if things have been a little dicey between you and a certain person recently.

Comforting colours are sienna and crimson. Lucky numbers are 11 and 19.
 
Today's New Moon will usher lots of luck into your life during the next two weeks, so do what you can to attract it and then keep hold of it. For a start, you should grab opportunities as they arise in case they pass you by all too quickly. You don't want to be wise after the event, when it's too late to profit by it. This is also a great time for taking a few modest risks. Fortunate colours are marigold and grape. Lucky numbers are 22 and 10.
 
You'll enjoy spending money today, although you'll be happiest if you can do it by yourself rather than have someone tagging along behind you. That's because you're in the mood to part with great slabs of cash and you don't want anyone asking any awkward questions or giving a sharp intake of breath when they hear the shop assistant telling you how much you've spent. But you won't go overboard, will you? Favourable colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 10 and 62.
 
This is a wonderful day for enjoying your friendships and mixing with people who are on the same wavelength as you.

You long to give yourself a good time today, even if that simply means curling up on the sofa with a box of chocolates or getting together with some of your favourite people.

This promises to be one of the nicest days in the whole of July, so make the most of it. You're in a sociable and gregarious mood so you won't want to spend a lot of time working or being by yourself when you could be out with some friends.

You're very receptive to new ideas, which is just as well as you may hear something interesting before too long.

Today's New Moon underlines your current need to stay in familiar and well-loved surroundings, and it's telling you to make the most of such settings during the coming fortnight.

Expressive colours are aubergine and bright red. Lucky numbers are 35 and 72.
 
You want to have a good time and nothing less will do. Your instincts are telling you to skip work and other chores, and to play hooky instead. But is this such a good idea?

Lucky numbers are 36 and 46.
 
This is a day for getting to grips with your inner self, especially if you're still feeling a bit churned up after yesterday's dramas.

Yesterday was difficult to cope with so today you're in the mood for some light relief. And, happily, you get it.

This is the perfect day for immersing yourself in mundane projects and activities, such as cleaning the house, doing the shopping or making lots of phone calls.

Beneficial colours are deep blue and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 17 and 9.
 
You need a break from everyone today, preferably in comfortable surroundings. The fact is that you're lost in a world of your own at the moment and you don't want to snap out of it unless it's absolutely necessary.

Fortunate colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 14 and 20.
 
You need to do something that has a lot of meaning for you today, otherwise you'll feel dissatisfied and as though you've missed out in some way.

Spend time today concentrating on personal matters. That might mean getting your hair cut, doing some essential shopping or, if you're really lucky, devoting a couple of hours to pampering yourself.

Dynamic colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 2 and 71.

Lucky numbers are 16 and 77.
 
This is the perfect day for doing something a little bit different from normal. You're in a free-spirited and enthusiastic mood, so do things that reflect this.

Beneficial colours are lilac and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 15 and 17.
 
Relationships go well today because you're very tuned into the people around you. Keep them happy, as you will feel much more fulfilled when you're with others than when you're on your own.

Lucky numbers are 22 and 11.
 
This is a day for applying your nose to the grindstone and getting on with your work.

Communicative colours are lavender and russet. Lucky numbers are 32 and 7.
 
If you want a quiet Monday you should avoid getting involved in anything to do with money or belongings. It's a recipe for trouble, with people becoming possessive or acquisitive.

Insightful colours are apricot and lavender. Lucky numbers are 32 and 25.
 
You're feeling very loving, affectionate and compassionate this Monday. This means you're prepared to give someone a second chance if they've upset you recently.

You'll get a kick out of indulging your creative spirit, perhaps through an artistic activity. Revealing colours are silver and caramel. Lucky numbers are 3 and 7.
 
Maybe the tensions of the past couple of days have finally got to you, but you're certainly poised on a knife-edge of emotional drama. If you're tense and frazzled, don't take your raw emotional state out on whichever poor sap happens to be around. Far better to admit how you're feeling to yourself and, if necessary, keep away from everyone until you feel more relaxed. Soothing colours are butterscotch and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 8 and 53.
 
It's another day for looking into your finances, but this time you need to do it in greater detail. Get to the bottom of any mysteries or snags right now, while they're still fresh in your mind. Don't let anyone fob you off with lame excuses. If you're suddenly gripped by pangs of jealousy, beware, because they'll make you behave irrationally and selfishly. Beneficial colours are burgundy and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 17 and 32.
 
Someone dear to your heart is being a bit of a pain today. They're throwing their weight around as though they're really important and you don't count at all, and they may also be trying to control you emotionally. Perhaps they're relying on emotional blackmail to get their own way or they're using other not-so-subtle tactics, but you don't like it. And you won't get anywhere trying to match might with might, either. Beneficial colours are plum and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 10 and 1.
 
You're raring to go and will enjoy being busy. It's a great day for planning a forthcoming journey because you'll have the energy to sort out lots of little details and also to chase up anything that's overdue, such as your tickets or replacement passport.

Someone dear to your heart has very strong ideas about what you should and shouldn't be doing today, which will soon get on your nerves.

Try to get a grip on yourself! Expressive colours are charcoal and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 4 and 27.
 
Even though it's Monday, your energy is flowing well no matter what you're doing. You'll be happiest if you can cruise at your own fairly fast pace, without having to downshift to accommodate any slowcoaches. At home you'll want to keep active, so how about combining cleaning the house with a general work-out? Communicative colours are saffron and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 12 and 13.
 
Stay active today, otherwise you'll soon start to feel rather restless and agitated.

You might have an interesting conversation with a close chum, as well. Exuberant colours are spearmint and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 15 and 52.
 
You're eager to get moving and achieve something today, preferably while working by yourself so you aren't distracted by anyone.

Lucky numbers are 30 and 20.
 
A friend has a lot of get up and go, and they'll soon persuade you to join them in their latest scheme or idea. They might entice you to go down the pub with them, out for some coffee or to join a group that they belong to.

Lucky numbers are 39 and 74.
 
You can make a really good impression on someone today, especially if they're sizing you up for professional or family reasons.

Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
 
This is the perfect day for pottering about in familiar surroundings and enjoying domestic comforts. You'll also get a big kick out of doing some entertaining, although you aren't in the mood for doing anything very ambitious, such as cooking a lavish meal for twenty of your dearest friends. A relaxing picnic or a cosy meal around the kitchen table is more your style right now. Prosperous colours are mushroom and dark green. Lucky numbers are 37 and 1.
 
This is a day for relaxing and enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance.

Lucky numbers are 12 and 66.
 
If you felt vaguely restless yesterday it was nothing compared to your present mood of complete boredom. Somehow nothing is quite right at the moment and you're looking for distractions.

Creative colours are pink champagne and ebony. Lucky numbers are 10 and 32.
 
This is just the day to get on well with whoever happens to be around, whether that's your colleagues at work or your other half at home.

Lucky numbers are 14 and 21.
 
After the hectic pace of the last couple of days you're ready to slow things down a little and catch your breath. Ideally, you should do this at home, in the company of some of your nearest and dearest. Maybe you could all share a delicious meal or have a lazy time in the garden. You certainly won't feel like doing anything very strenuous or stressful. Ideal colours are pale pink and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 32 and 72.
 
Once again you need to spread your wings today, although this craving won't be as strong as it was yesterday. Ideally, you should get involved in an activity that brings you mental and spiritual satisfaction, and which gives you lots to think about. Even a visit to a museum or art gallery will do the trick, especially if it has connections with history or ancient civilizations. Dazzling colours are brass and amber. Lucky numbers are 10 and 62.
 
You're on top of the world today and having a great time. Everything seems to be going your way right now, even if you've had some bumpy moments recently.

Lucky numbers are 10 and 44.
 
You loathe the thought of being restricted in any way this Saturday, and you'll make no bones about your displeasure if someone does try to clip your wings or impose limitations on you. If you're dealing with someone who has power or influence over you, you'll have to fight the temptation to rub them up the wrong way and aggravate them. What's got into you? Favourable colours are avocado and pearl. Lucky numbers are 25 and 44.
 
If you go out for a walk it could turn into more of a royal progress, as you stop to greet lots of people that you know along the way.

Fortunate colours are charcoal and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 40 and 57.
 
Your domestic life gets interrupted by all sorts of unexpected events today. Someone might call at just the wrong moment, a loved one could drop a mini bombshell or all your plans might go up in smoke. The more rigid your routine is, the more rattled you'll feel. There's nothing you can do about any of this except do your best to take it in your stride and not get into a flap. Favourable colours are pink and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 6 and 11.
 
This is the perfect day to surround yourself with friends and have some fun. Maybe you fancy inviting some of them round to your place or perhaps you're itching to get out of the house and visit a favourite pub or restaurant. Don't worry if you're going to a big gathering where you barely know a soul because you'll soon be the life of the party. Beneficial colours are smoky grey and bright pink. Lucky numbers are 25 and 2.
 
You show a different side of your personality today, especially to people who are very close to you.

Alternatively, it will be your partner who displays a new side of themselves, much to your surprise and interest. Expressive colours are gold and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 19 and 61.
 
Life is full of nice surprises today, much to your delight. You won't be sure what's going to happen next, but only in an exciting and stimulating way.

You're also feeling a lot more relaxed than usual. Steady colours are peach and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 1 and 2.
 
Variety is the spice of life, Aquarius. Take the chance to do things on the spur of the moment.

If you're out shopping it will be difficult to resist making some impulse buys. Creative colours are amber and rose. Lucky numbers are 8 and 12.
 
If you were in danger of getting restless yesterday, you'll really feel it today. Do your best to be spontaneous and impulsive, without going over the top and landing yourself in trouble. Try to get plenty of exercise and several changes of scene. You'll also want some lively company and will try to keep away from anyone who's a complete stick-in-the-mud. Favourable colours are mulberry and sable. Lucky numbers are 39 and 31.
 
Once again you're feeling on top of the world. It's certainly a brilliant start to July, and today you'll enjoy doing things on the spur of the moment.

Opportune colours are mushroom and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 14 and 5.
 
Life is what you make it today, so make it as lively and interesting as possible. You've got no time for any boring or tedious activities, and the same is true for people. Instead, seek out excitement and stimulation. Some of it could come your way courtesy of a loved one who has a few surprises in store. Auspicious colours are toffee and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.
 
There's a nice surprise in store for you today. It might arrive in the form of an unexpected visitor (and one that you want to see, rather than one you don't), or a member of the family might have planned an unexpected treat for you. You might also make a surprise discovery about something from your past that you knew nothing about until now. Beneficial colours are mother of pearl and ginger. Lucky numbers are 34 and 75.
 
You're in a sociable and friendly mood today, but you aren't content to be with just anyone. No, you want to mix with people who are lively, unusual and interesting, so any stick-in-the-muds need not apply. You're also keen to show another side to your personality, especially if that involves being much more spontaneous and radical than usual. Beneficial colours are dark red and ivory. Lucky numbers are 32 and 76.
 
You're looking for some light relief from the chores and problems of everyday life, so try to do something totally different from usual.

There could be some surprising but pleasing news about one of your responsibilities or duties. Advantageous colours are magenta and oyster. Lucky numbers are 9 and 33.
 
You need to inject some variety in your life today, especially if you don't anticipate doing anything very exciting. That's because you crave amusement and entertainment right now, particularly if things happen on the spur of the moment. Mind you, unexpected events are more than likely, especially where an older person, your health, work or a pet are concerned. Expressive colours are emerald and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 1 and 37.
 
You're normally very keen to stick to the true and tried, but today you're ready to go out on a limb and take a chance. In fact, you'll feel as though you're missing out if you can't spread your wings and do something different for a change this Saturday. Ideally, it should be connected with travel or anything else that fills you with a spirit of adventure. Fortunate colours are apricot and avocado. Lucky numbers are 20 and 56.
 
You long for some excitement today, especially if you know exactly what you're going to be doing and it doesn't exactly make you want to do heel clicks with joy. Try to vary your routine rut, or get together with someone who's a real live wire because they'll keep you amused. Auspicious colours are mandarin and gold. Lucky numbers are 2 and 14.
 
You're raring to go and full of energy today, which is really exciting and stimulating. But know when to stop and call it a day, otherwise you'll take on too much and end up wearing yourself out. At some point you could encounter someone whose holier-than-thou attitude really annoys you, especially if they behave as though they've got all the answers. Propitious colours are blackberry and salmon. Lucky numbers are 6 and 3.
 
Start the month as you mean to go on, by doing something that puts a smile on your face. You may not be able to devote the entire day to it, but even spending a short while doing something you enjoy will be good for you. It's also a super day for getting in touch with friends, especially if you haven't seen them for a while or they live a long way away. Fortunate colours are taupe and purple. Lucky numbers are 36 and 57.
 
You're feeling great and you want everyone to know it. You also want them to be as buoyed up as you. The trouble is that they may not be quite so keen on the idea, with the result that you come across as being a bit pushy or over-the-top. You're just going to have to let others go their own sweet way now, without forcing them to feel or be something that they're not. Favourable colours are cherry pink and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 37 and 45.
 
Don't take on too much work today because you might easily find that you've bitten off more than you can chew.

Nevertheless, you're feeling confident and enthusiastic, which will steer you through the day with flying colours. Harmonious colours are cream and peach. Lucky numbers are 22 and 2.
 
It's a good idea to guard your tongue today to stop yourself blurting out the wrong thing in the heat of the moment.

Fortunate colours are turquoise and ochre. Lucky numbers are 3 and 16.
 
You're in the mood to enjoy yourself, especially if it means spending money. You won't really mind how much you spend at the time, although it could be a different story afterwards when you start to count it all up. You certainly don't feel like stinting yourself right now, which is all very well if you can afford to be lavish. But try not to go overboard if you're supposed to be on a modest budget. Indulgent colours are red and banana. Lucky numbers are 8 and 15.
 
You need to keep moving today to avoid getting restless and bored. Try to vary your routine as much as possible, and have plenty of breaks if you're doing something that could become tedious. You'll have a great time if you've got something sociable lined up, although you'll have the most fun if you can avoid doing anything too predictable. Positive colours are indigo and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 22 and 8.
 
If you're a typical Capricorn and often suffer from a lack of confidence, today's planetary set-up will be of huge benefit to you.

However, you may come up against someone who has a very high opinion of themselves and doesn't care who knows it. Beneficial colours are russet and green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 69.
 
You're feeling good this Friday, no matter what is happening in your life at the moment. You're confident and optimistic, which is bound to get results. But take care if you're going shopping today because it will be very easy for you to get carried away and spend too much money. Maybe you'll be egged on by a friend or perhaps you won't need any encouragement but, either way, the results will still be very expensive. Dreamy colours are kiwifruit and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 19.
 
Money can't help burning a hole in your pocket, whether you've got masses of it or you're counting every penny. It's the sort of day when you don't want to stint yourself in any way, and you'll look for any excuse to indulge yourself. So be careful if you're passing anywhere that might be especially tempting, or if you're out with friends, because your willpower could desert you at the last minute. Expressive colours are cinnamon and avocado. Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
 
Someone is very full of themselves today, and after a while you'll wish you had a pin to prick their self-important bubble. They're keen to tell you how clever they are, and the better you know them the more this will grate. Be careful if you're involved in a property deal, such as buying a house, because you could over-commit yourself in order not to lose face. Beneficial colours are rose pink and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 24 and 12.
 
You're in a really good mood and feeling very positive. So much optimism emanating from one person is bound to attract some positive vibes, so you can confidently expect things to go your way right now. Unless, that is, you become too cocky and arrogant, convinced that everything you touch will turn to gold. If that happens, you could come unstuck, so be warned. Positive colours are mushroom and amber. Lucky numbers are 29 and 2.
 
A loved one will appreciate it if you make contact with them today. You might drop in to see them if you're in the area, or give them a call if you're further away. Basically, they want you to make a bit of a fuss of them so they'll feel special. This will be easier to do than you think, and the results will definitely be worth all your efforts. Beneficial colours are coffee and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 26 and 60.
 
Do your best not to get caught up in piffling little details that distract you from more important matters, especially if you're working on a project you hope will boost your reputation, or put your name in lights. Remember to keep track of important documents, letters and files because you'll waste a lot of time looking for them if you mislay them. Auspicious colours are violet and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
Something that was meant to remain a secret could come to light today, much to your dismay and possible embarrassment. At least you could reduce the risk of this happening by not even hinting at anything you want to remain under wraps, so you don't have anything to reproach yourself for. Alternatively, you may be asked to keep a secret. But can you do it? Fortunate colours are tan and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 19 and 54.
 
It's very tempting to get bogged down in trivial facts and figures today, and then to get really annoyed if people dispute them or couldn't care less about them. By all means get totally wrapped up in minute details when you're by yourself because you'll have a whale of a time, but you should try to avoid inflicting them on other people if they simply aren't interested. Favourable colours are avocado and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 16 and 36.
 
Be careful if you're spending money today because it won't take much to make you part with lots of it. Maybe you're feeling emotionally neglected and you want to buy something in order to comfort yourself, or perhaps you simply can't resist snapping up every desirable item that you clap your eyes on. Unless you're absolutely loaded with cash you might have to impose some strict limits on the amount you spend. Fortunate colours are mulberry and brass. Lucky numbers are 10 and 12.
 
It's very easy to get on well with everyone around you now, especially if they're women, with one proviso - you've got to pay them plenty of attention. If anyone thinks they're being ignored or neglected they'll soon make their feelings known and you'll have to dance attendance on them. So keep them sweet to start off with, and then you won't have to spend the rest of the day making them feel wanted. Auspicious colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 18 and 13.
 
Maybe it's because it's the end of the month but someone is feeling crotchety and ill-tempered. It won't help if they've got too much work to do or they're drowning in a sea of paperwork, so think about offering to lend them a hand. You'll have to do it tactfully, however, otherwise they might take umbrage because they think you're criticizing them. Get out the kid gloves! Communicative colours are cornflower blue and sea green. Lucky numbers are 11 and 27.
 
Do you have all lot on your plate this Thursday? It will be difficult for you to know what to do first, especially if you let yourself get in a flap or you're being hassled by people who are breathing down your neck. If you're overwhelmed by the amount of work you've got to do, tackle it in order of priority and consider asking for help. Auspicious colours are hazelnut and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 33.
 
What's up? You're in rather a low-key mood and you may also feel as though nothing is going right. Try to rise above all this gloom and doom, because it's one of those days when you have a tendency to be pessimistic and to allow problems to get to you. Family matters are a particular source of concern, but remember that you may be making mountains out of molehills. Ideal colours are salmon and oyster. Lucky numbers are 29 and 55.
 
The world feels like a lonely place today, whether or not that's really the case for you. As a result you're feeling isolated and shut off from other people, and you don't like it. Try not to indulge yourself too much in these miserable emotions because they'll only make you feel wretched. Instead, do something by yourself that increases your self-esteem and self-reliance. Empowering colours are chestnut and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 53.
 
There's a clash today between your desire to have a good time and your ability to pay for it. This means you could be drawn to activities that are tempting but too expensive, such as going out to a swish restaurant with some friends and then wondering if your credit card can stand the additional burden that you're about to inflict on it. You should really economize, even though the idea probably won't appeal to you. Practical colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 31 and 66.
 
A loved one needs a lot of attention today: this may not be very convenient, but you have no option but to do what they want. Work off any annoyance by being busy around your home, and perhaps doing some tidying up or being creative in the garden. If you're shopping for domestic items, it will be tempting to buy things for the comfort they'll bring you. Calming colours are lavender and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 8 and 48.
 
There's no stopping you this Wednesday! You're in a daredevil and go-getting mood, and you won't take no for an answer. This is the perfect influence if you need to muster some self-confidence or energy to do something challenging, but it may not be quite such a good thing if you're supposed to be tiptoeing around someone because you'll have a tendency to be much more boisterous than that. Fortunate colours are dark green and plum. Lucky numbers are 24 and 35.
 
You're in a very considerate and understanding mood today, making you eager to hit it off with whoever happens to be around.

Receptive colours are russet and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 25 and 75.
 
You're in a very easy-going mood, making you want to create a harmonious atmosphere wherever you go and whoever you're with.

At some point you might be asked to help out with a good cause or charity event, and of course in your present state you'll want to say yes! Ideal colours are silver and amber. Lucky numbers are 31 and 37.
 
If you're still feeling agitated after yesterday, you'll struggle to control your temper and could go through the day with a black cloud hanging over your head.

Receptive colours are copper and salmon pin. Lucky numbers are 3 and 15.
 
Spend at least part of today with loved ones. because they'll make you feel so good. If you know there have been problems with a certain person recently then this is a great opportunity to start sorting them out. Be prepared to change and adapt in order to improve the situation, rather than to insist that all the faults lie with the other person and not with you. Ambitious colours are parchment and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 13 and 53.
 
You'll really value having some time to yourself, far away from the demands of other people. You're a sensitive soul and you need to recharge your batteries, otherwise you'll start to run out of energy. Consider doing some meditation or creative visualization, which will refresh you both spiritually and physically. Fortunate colours are pineapple and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 11 and 41.
 
This is the perfect day for fixing anything that's on the blink, whether it's an object or a relationship. You're definitely in a fix-it mood, but don't interfere in things that are none of your business or which are already in the capable hands of someone else. It's a good day for clearing out any junk you've accumulated, too, and either recycling it or chucking it away. Advantageous colours are gold and azure. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
Someone's feeling very impatient today and they're trying to chivvy you along. Do you like this? No, you don't, and you'll probably say so before too long.

Sociable colours are avocado and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 6 and 19.
 
Everything means a lot to you today. As a result, you're taking things very seriously and might even have a sense-of-humour failure before too long.

Lucky numbers are 21 and 34.
 
It's a great day for making some constructive and creative changes to your life, even if they can only be quite modest at this stage of the proceedings.

Remember that a journey of one thousand miles starts with the first step. Fortunate colours are silvery grey and russet. Lucky numbers are 25 and 41.
 
Once again the astrological accent is on the way you handle yourself when dealing with other people. You're feeling rather impatient and agitated, so you'll get irritated by people if you think they aren't pulling their weight or working as quickly as they should. Do your best to reserve your ire for the people who really deserve it, otherwise you'll spend all day shouting. Harmonious colours are mulberry and almond. Lucky numbers are 14 and 49.
 
The more humdrum your life feels, the more you'll want to escape into greener pastures today. If possible, you'll get your work out of the way as quickly as possible so you can do something much more enjoyable, such as going to the beach or meeting up with friends. Of course, you might even contemplate skipping work altogether, simply because you aren't in the mood for it. But is that really such a good idea? Healing colours are pale gold and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 5.

You've been in a very self-contained and private frame of mind during the past couple of weeks but from today you start to emerge from your den.

Lucky numbers are 25 and 26.
 
Over the next couple of weeks you'll enjoy journeys of exploration, whether these are emotional, mental, physical or spiritual.

Today you embark on a short phase in which you want to retreat from the world, both mentally and emotionally, and have some time to yourself.

It will help to tell loved ones how you're feeling, in case they think they've done something wrong or you've gone off them. Ideal colours are copper and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 26 and 12.
 
Take care because there's a lot of tension in the air today and it's bound to affect you sooner or later.

Something or someone gets under your skin today, making it difficult for you to get through the day without losing your temper or raising your voice at some point.

Ideal colours are chocolate brown and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 43.
 
Communications come easily to you at the best of times, but you'll be even more adept at them during the next few weeks.

Favourable colours are mahogany and skin tones. Lucky numbers are 9 and 54.
 
You're in a much brighter state of mind today, which comes as a relief after yesterday's rather gloomy outlook.

But don't just talk about the difficulties between you - talk about some nice things as well! Fortuitous colours are ginger and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 34 and 55.
 
Yesterday you were thinking along businesslike lines but today it's a different story because you're feeling much more emotional and affectionate.

Lucky numbers are 26 and 23.
 
Someone is in a very idealistic frame of mind right now. They're viewing situations in the best possible light, and are determined to keep cheerful. Is this commendable or are they fooling themselves in some way? You'll enjoy talking to them, but don't be surprised if your conversation turns into a monologue, with them holding the floor. Oh well! Auspicious colours are plum and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 15 and 52.
 
A positive attitude leads to positive results today, so keep smiling. Your thoughts and feelings are working together, making it easier than usual for you to express yourself. You might also have a lucky break when you talk to someone who can open doors for you or weave their magic wand for you in other ways. June may not have started off all that well but it's certainly ending on a high note. Opportune colours are cream and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 11 and 2.
 
You're being wonderfully diplomatic today, Libra, and you'll be able to talk yourself out of any tight spots that you happen to find yourself in. This will be just what the doctor ordered if you've got to come up with a nifty excuse for something. It's also a good day for talking about your feelings with someone you respect and admire. Ambitious colours are indigo and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 4 and 13.
 
This is a fabulous day for talking about your feelings, especially if you can confide in someone you trust. Be prepared to discuss your innermost and most private emotions, particularly if it will be a huge relief to do so. If you've been bottling up your feelings for a long time it will do you the world of good to get them off your chest at long last. Fortunate colours are violet and treacle. Lucky numbers are 35 and 58.
 
After yesterday's clammed up mood, you're feeling far more forthcoming about your emotions. It's a great opportunity for you to explore these emotions in greater depth, either by working through them on your own or by discussing them with someone who's willing to listen to you pour out your heart and soul. Stabilising colours are blackberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 13 and 8.
 
You'll really enjoy talking about whatever and whoever means a lot to you today. But, best of all, you'll want to get involved in some of your favourite activities. Watch out if you're near the shops because it will be very difficult to avoid temptation. Even simple window-shopping could turn into a major splurge once you've spotted those must-have items. Expansive colours are jet black and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 63.
 
You have great tact today, which will come in handy if you're trying to butter someone up. Not that you'll be so crass as to make it obvious that that's what you're doing, will you? Instead, you'll utter some soothing words if necessary or lavish them with compliments if that seems more appropriate. If you begin working with a new colleague or client today you'll really hit it off with each other. Favourable colours are dark gold and hazel. Lucky numbers are 34 and 37.
 
This is the perfect day for establishing a strong emotional link with a certain person in your life, because not only will it help to improve things between you at the moment but it will also stand you in good stead for the future. You might offer this person lots of moral support if they need it, or simply reassure them how much you care for them. You won't overflow with emotion but your sincerity will be obvious. Fortunate colours are silvery grey and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 18 and 6.
 
Someone is brimming over with confidence and enthusiasm this Sunday, as you'll soon discover. They may even be prepared to take a few risks, regardless of how sensible this is as a course of action. The burning question is whether they'll try to get you on-board and how you'll react if they do. Try not to do anything foolhardy, even if it does seem like a good idea at the time. Beneficial colours are sienna and fawn. Lucky numbers are 30 and 68.
 
It's time for some straight talking, whether you're delivering it or on the receiving end of it. But don't confuse a few home truths with a character assassination that will cause hurt and humiliation. You may also have your doubts about a relationship or someone's intentions towards you, but are you being overly cautious or pessimistic? Sociable colours are obsidian and aqua. Lucky numbers are 8 and 19.
 
It's difficult for you to express your emotions today, but that doesn't mean you aren't feeling anything. Instead, it seems that your emotions are locked away inside you, making you come across as rather remote and distant. Perhaps you're also feeling somewhat vulnerable at the moment, so some of this is caused by emotional self-preservation. Better let loved ones know what's going on in case they feel rejected by you. Prosperous colours are mushroom and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 6 and 54.
 
Your attitude will have a big impact on what happens today. There's an emotional reserve between you and a certain person, and you can either do your best to conquer it or you can allow it to conquer you. If you're actually separated from someone special, try not to brood or tell yourself how lonely you're feeling because that will only make you even more miserable. Propitious colours are pale pink and viridian. Lucky numbers are 10 and 42.
 
A certain someone is in rather a hasty mood today, making them behave in ways that everyone else thinks are daredevil and reckless. The burning question is whether you're the one who's throwing caution to the winds, or the one who's standing on the sidelines saying 'Stop! '. Either way, there will be plenty of thrills and spills before the day is out. Inspirational colours are purple sage and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 11 and 6.
 
Someone you see on a regular basis needs your moral support today, so do what you can to help. Mind you, it may be quite difficult getting this person to tell you what's wrong, perhaps because they've clammed up emotionally or they're frightened to admit that they've got a problem. Don't badger them but let them tell their story in their own time. Propitious colours are mustard yellow and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 39 and 17.
 
You certainly have your head screwed on the right way today, especially when it comes to thinking about your plans for the future. You don't want to mess around with ideas that will never see the light of day, and instead are only interested in those that stand a good chance of success. Others may accuse you of being detached or too unemotional, so try not to hurt them unwittingly. Auspicious colours are caramel and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 24 and 44.
 
You're eager to get a lot done this Sunday and you'll put even more energy into things than normal. This is all very well if you're doing things by yourself but there could be a little friction if you've roped someone else in as well. They might complain that you're wearing them out or expecting them to do too much, so be prepared to scale down your plans if necessary. Communicative colours are cream and avocado. Lucky numbers are 16 and 56.
 
It's a weird day because it feels as though there's a barrier separating you from everyone else. Perhaps you prefer to be on your own at the moment and are quite happy to enjoy your own company, or maybe this separation is caused by circumstances beyond your control. If you are with other people they will find it difficult to make an emotional connection with you. Revealing colours are bronze and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 28 and 29.
 
You can't resist a challenge this Sunday, even if it would be much wiser to do so. Right now, you love the idea of pushing your luck and tempting fate, but try not to play for very high stakes in case things don't go the way you planned. You're also feeling very energetic but should guard against overdoing it because you might pull a muscle. Fortunate colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 23 and 52.
 
This promises to be one of the nicest days in the whole of June so do your best to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible. You're already feeling very optimistic and positive, and some of today's events will make you feel even more cheerful. Ideally, you should get together with some of your favourite people or visit somewhere that you've always wanted to see. Favourable colours are blueberry and white. Lucky numbers are 18 and 2.
 
Have a blitz on the housework today. You'll enjoy creating order out of chaos and having a big tidy-up, especially if you can throw away a lot of stuff you no longer need at the same time. Don't forget to go through the contents of your fridge and freezer in case any overlooked items of food are slowly turning themselves into potential agents of biological warfare! Energising colours are fuchsia and creamy cocoa. Lucky numbers are 30 and 26.
 
Your social life could be blighted by misunderstandings or confusion today, so be warned. If you've agreed to meet someone, they may never turn up because of a mix-up over the venue or time. If you do manage to get together with a friend, they could be in a muddle over something or their conversation might not make much sense. You'll have to make allowances for them. Prosperous colours are bright red and platinum. Lucky numbers are 4 and 2.
 
If you're a typical Cancerian you usually have no problems in handling money, but it's a different story today. Instead of being self- assured and knowing what you're doing, you're assailed by doubts and uncertainties. Sadly, you may also have to cope with someone who isn't as honest as they seem, so don't take everyone solely on face value. Fortunate colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 12 and 48.
 
You're the soul of compassion and consideration today, which will win you lots of fans. You might even go out of your way to help someone who's going through a difficult patch, although you're unlikely to make a big song and dance about it. You'll also appreciate having some time to yourself, so you can catch your breath and have a restful interlude. Beneficial colours are blossom pink and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 70.
 
This is a good day for getting to the bottom of a mini mystery because you're longing to discover what's going on. This might be a strange little puzzle connected with a neighbour or close relative, or something odd connected with yourself. It could even be a detective novel that you're longing to finish. You won't rest until your curiosity has been satisfied. Adventurous colours are saffron and dark red. Lucky numbers are 31 and 72.
 
Where's all your energy gone? You're feeling lethargic and lacking in confidence, and you want to have as lazy a day as possible. This is great if you can put your feet up and do nothing, but can you? You'll have to make a big effort if you've got to go to work, and make sure that your listless mood doesn't invite criticism or suspicions that you don't have your eye on the ball. Ambitious colours are banana yellow and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 29.
 
Sadly, it's almost impossible to rely on a certain person today because they're either not around or not making a lot of sense. Or perhaps that's what they think of you at the moment? Relationships are slightly tricky today simply because it's difficult to work out what other people want from you, and vice versa. Try to avoid reaching any important agreements in case they fall apart at the first hurdle. Ideal colours are avocado and purple. Lucky numbers are 18 and 9.
 
You're fascinated by alternative or unusual ideas today, especially if they have mystical, spiritual or bizarre connections. You might also flirt with the idea of getting more involved in something like astrology, yoga or crystals, whether or not you decide to follow up your interest. When in doubt, follow your gut instincts because they could be surprisingly accurate. Stable colours are ultramarine and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 70.
 
You're in a romantic dream world today and you won't welcome any rude interruptions. You want to stay cocooned in your happy little bubble, far away from any problems and difficulties, and preferably with someone who puts stars in your eyes. If a new relationship gets off the ground today it will always be characterized by a slightly otherworldly quality, which may or may not be helpful. Receptive colours are golden topaz and ash blond. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
Once again you're thinking along domestic lines, and today you're in the mood to check that everything is running smoothly at home. That means you might decide to check that electrical appliances are working properly, and to do something about them if they aren't. You'll also want to unravel any family problems before they reach crisis point. Beneficial colours are pistachio and apricot. Lucky numbers are 25 and 15.
 
Be careful when spending your money this Saturday because you aren't your usual canny self. Instead, you might be duped into buying something you don't need or which isn't suitable for you, or there could be a mix-up over how much something costs. You should also watch out if someone gives you a big sob story that makes you reach for your wallet. They may be genuine, but then again they may not. Insightful colours are amethyst and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 7 and 29.
 
Your mood is going up and down like a Yo Yo at the moment, and sure enough you're feeling slightly below par again today. You don't have as much energy as usual and so everything seems more of an effort than normal, or perhaps you're experiencing a crisis of confidence. Ignore any negative self-talk, such as telling yourself you'll never achieve what you want to do. Expressive colours are vanilla and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 24 and 8.
 
If you're going shopping today you'll want to rush around at top speed and you won't want anyone to slow you down. So if you take someone along for company you'd better make sure that they can match your hectic pace and won't start to flag. Try not to be too hasty when buying items, because otherwise you might pick up the wrong thing and only notice your mistake when you've got it home. Powerful colours are amber and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 74.
 
You're feeling a lot more cheerful, thank goodness, and you want to celebrate. What do you have in mind? You might fancy going out on the tiles with your mates, or perhaps you feel like venturing further afield and taking off on a weekend break? Any form of travel goes down well with you now, but you'll be in your element if you can visit somewhere for the first time. Favourable colours are sienna and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 50.
 
A friend is full of enthusiasm for something and they want you to get involved as well. They may try to rope you into one of their favourite activities, or persuade you to join a club that they belong to. It's a good idea to go along with their suggestions, at least up to a point, because they could lead to some very interesting or enjoyable experiences further down the line. Ideal colours are agate and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 6 and 30.
 
This is a fantastic day for doing tasks that you consider to be important, even if no one else does. Well, that's fine because they can get on with whatever they want to do while you're left in peace. If you're involved in some sort of charitable venture you'll enjoy planning your next fund-raising campaign, especially if you'll be spearheading it. Peaceful colours are mauve and copper. Lucky numbers are 8 and 27.
 
Make a list of all the things that are awaiting your attention and then systematically work your way through them today. You're in the sort of no-nonsense mood in which you simply want to get the chores out of the way, with no messing about. It's also a good day for paying bills, balancing your chequebook and tackling other financial necessities. You'll be glad to get them out of the way. Favourable colours are peacock blue and ivory. Lucky numbers are 15 and 66.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself, so let's hope you can find the time for some fun in your busy schedule.

Children will help to make your day and you'll love doing something playful together. Favourable colours are sable and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 11 and 1.
 
You're feeling a million times better than you were yesterday, and you're eager to do something exciting and enjoyable. Well, what do you have in mind? You're also feeling much more optimistic than you were yesterday, so you could be ready to take a chance or risk because you're pretty sure it will turn out OK. And you could be right! Auspicious colours are russet and fawn. Lucky numbers are 22 and 40.
 
This is the perfect day for filling others with enthusiasm or giving them plenty of encouragement, especially if they've been feeling rather downhearted lately. You won't do this in a thoughtless or chivvying sort of way, either, so there will be nothing to reproach yourself for later on. If your holiday plans are still in the pipeline, check how they're coming along. Positive colours are cream and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 11 and 53.
 
You're in a fabulously sunny frame of mood this Friday, so don't be selfish and keep it to yourself. Instead, spread it around so other people can get a share of your cheerful attitude. It seems only fair, really! You'll enjoy going out on the town, even if it's only in a very modest way because of your current economy drive. Favourable colours are spring green and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 17 and 10.
 
There's a very convivial atmosphere between you and colleagues right now. You're all getting along very well together, and there might be a lot more laughter than usual.

Beneficial colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 18 and 38.
 
You're back on great form after yesterday's temporary blip, especially when it comes to getting on with your work or shouldering responsibilities. You could get some help in all this, which will come in useful provided that other people resist the urge to tell you what to do, because that won't go down at all well. You'll also enjoy working as part of a team, as long as you aren't merely the oily rag. Peaceful colours are magenta and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 6 and 1.
 
You're in quite a domesticated mood today and you'll enjoy pottering around at home, tackling the chores and keeping on top of your household duties. Given your current high levels of energy, you might even decide to combine the housework with some exercise and work up a sweat while you're doing the dusting or hoovering. Think how virtuous you'll feel! Advantageous colours are vanilla and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
 
Here we go! Today you have to keep a loved one sweet while also getting on with important tasks, so try to be as flexible and easy- going as possible. The best way to handle anyone who's being demanding is to humour them, give them as much attention as you can manage and explain your current circumstances. You may also have to arrange to spend time with them later in the week when things aren't so hectic. Beneficial colours are blueberry and yellow. Lucky numbers are 22 and 15.
 
It's very difficult to see the wood for the trees today, especially when it comes to sorting out your finances. Maybe you're so worried about the state of your bank balance that you can't make any sensible decisions about it, or you're trying to do your accounts but you're drowning in a sea of paper. Give yourself frequent breaks and try not to make any firm commitments or decisions while you're in this scatterbrained mood. Insightful colours are sapphire blue and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 14 and 57.
 
Carry on where you left off yesterday, because this is another good day for being savvy with your money. Maybe you should take the bull by the horns and begin by writing down everything you've spent this month, so you can see what's a valid expense and what comes under the category of frivolous extras that you don't really need. Prepare to be amazed! Adventurous colours are navy and peach. Lucky numbers are 15 and 66.
 
Some of the women in your life need extra attention today, otherwise you'll know all about it. For instance, a female relative could be rather demanding of your time, insisting that you see her even though it isn't convenient for you. There could also be an element of competition with a woman at work, but try not to give it more importance than it deserves. Fortunate colours are blueberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 11 and 60.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself as much as possible, but only when all the work is out of the way. If you've been having difficulties with a certain person recently this is a great opportunity to put matters to rights, especially if you can find the generosity of spirit to be the first one to say sorry. If you go out on the town you may have to set a limit on how much money you spend. Vibrant colours are turquoise and velvet gold. Lucky numbers are 1 and 57.
 
Yesterday's theme continues today, as you're faced with the task of trying to work out what someone is telling you. The trouble is that they're probably not all that sure themselves because they're too involved in what's going on to form any kind of objective opinion. Try to keep calm while unravelling all this and don't get caught up in trivial problems that stop you seeing the bigger picture. Fortunate colours are strawberry and almond. Lucky numbers are 32 and 4.
 
You're in the mood for some light relief today, especially if that means doing as little as possible or giving yourself a treat. You're feeling very sociable and won't like it if you have to spend the best part of the day on your own. This is all very well if you don't have more pressing matters to take care of, such as work and other chores, but it won't make you very popular if you shirk your duties for too long. Peaceful colours are lilac and silver. Lucky numbers are 23 and 56.
 
Things really get to you today, making you feel like the spot marked 'X'. You probably also wish you could go back to bed and bury your head under the pillows. You're feeling very sensitive and easily got- at, and so it won't take much to dent your confidence and make you turn molehills into mountains. This too will pass. Fortunate colours are grape and parchment. Lucky numbers are 5 and 20.
 
A friend finds it hard to see the wood for the trees today, because they're so caught up in petty details that don't mean nearly as much as they think. Not that you can tell them that, because they'll overreact and start foaming at the mouth. You may also be paying too much attention to things that don't really matter, which will be a waste of your valuable time in the long run. Favourable colours are saffron and sage green. Lucky numbers are 23 and 71.
 
You're feeling very sensitive today, which means you're easily hurt by other people. They may not mean to upset you but that's what will happen, especially if they're being rather off-hand or they give the impression that they couldn't care less about you. You're probably reading more into the situation than really exists, so try to keep your reactions in proportion. Inspirational colours are topaz and azure. Lucky numbers are 35 and 58.
 
You need to look after yourself today because you're in a sensitive and vulnerable mood, making you take things very personally. It doesn't help that you're feeling rather lonely and unappreciated, or that others are being critical and offhand. Even if you crave the company of others it might be best to spend some time alone now, to avoid feeling emotionally crushed by other people's unfeeling attitudes. Soothing colours are peach and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 21 and 30.
 
Do your best to keep things in proportion today, otherwise they will grow in your imagination until they seem to be something they're not. For instance, you might get so bogged down in something fiddly or detailed that you make it much more complicated than it really is. If this happens it will help to have a complete break from it so you can recharge your batteries and gain a clearer mental focus. Insightful colours are oyster and peach. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
 
Today's Full Moon will highlight problems in your plans for the future during the next two weeks.

Your career and long-term goals are highlighted by today's Full Moon. Have a serious think about them, so you can check that you're happy with the way things are going.

Lucky numbers are 20 and 12.

Full Moons are always times of change and adjustment, and today's is no exception. It finds you in a sensitive state because it's highlighting some of your fears and worries, which will immediately make you feel defensive and over-protective of yourself.

Auspicious colours are amethyst and auburn. Lucky numbers are 5 and 2.

Divine colours are scarlet and Deep gold. Lucky numbers are 12 and 74.
 
During the next four weeks you'll feel most comfortable when you're with people that you know inside out.

Receptive colours are red velvet and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 39 and 16.
 
Home and family have occupied a lot of your time during the past few weeks, but the emphasis is now starting to shift and you see the first evidence of it today.

If you've been feeling under the weather lately you should get some expert advice about what's wrong so you can start to recover. If your daily routine has lost its sparkle you need to introduce some excitement into it during the next four weeks. Beneficial colours are caramel and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 32 and 22.
 
You're already feeling wrapped up in your thoughts and you become slightly reclusive from today. It's not that you'll want to completely cut yourself off from everyone during the next four weeks but there will definitely be occasions when you'll prefer your own company to that of other people. But don't give anyone the impression that you're feeling stand-offish or unfriendly. Expressive colours are jet black and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 2 and 28.
 
Your sense of adventure is kindled and it will carry you through the next four weeks with flying colours. Be prepared to break new ground and try different activities between now and late July. Some great opportunities will be coming your way, too, so don't let them slip through your fingers when they arrive. You may not get a second chance. Auspicious colours are striped agate and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 18 and 12.
 
After four weeks in which you've focused on getting ahead in life, it's now time for you to start concentrating on your hopes and dreams.

There will also be a strong accent on your friendships during the next four weeks, giving you the chance to pick up the threads if you've lost touch with someone recently. Revealing colours are jade and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 3 and 1.
 
During the coming month you'll want to devote your precious time to the activities and people that mean a lot to you. This may mean letting some other pursuits go by the wayside for the time being, so you can concentrate on whatever makes your world go round. You'll also be very concerned with how much things cost, but don't let this make you mercenary or penny-pinching. Relaxing colours are maroon and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 25 and 62.
 
It's very difficult to cope with a certain person today because they're in such a disruptive and contrary mood. This won't last, thankfully, but it will certainly test your patience in the meantime and put you on edge. It won't help if you're cooped up in one place for too long, either, so try to have plenty of changes of scene and to introduce as much variety into your day as possible. Beneficial colours are cinnamon and lemon. Lucky numbers are 10 and 73.
 
You're in a very go-getting mood today, so you're reluctant to sit around wasting time. You'll function at your best if you can get yourself organized in advance, otherwise you could start to get frustrated or in a flap. Do your best to keep on the move as much as possible so you can burn up your excess energy in positive and constructive ways. It's a super day for planning a journey, too. Ideal colours are mango and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 10 and 66.
 
There's no danger of you getting the Monday blues because you're in such a dynamic and go-ahead mood. You're also very keen to get moving and make things happen, so you won't want to hang around waiting for other people to wake up and decide to take action. As a result you might prefer to work by yourself and at your own pace whenever you get the chance. Beneficial colours are butterscotch and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 6 and 27.
 
It's Monday but you're showing no signs of feeling fed up or wishing it were still the weekend. Instead, you're bouncing around and feeling full of beans, which is a great way to start the week. No matter what you've planned today, try to fit in something sociable, even if it's a quick natter with a neighbour or a hasty sandwich with a friend. Propitious colours are magenta and lemon. Lucky numbers are 16 and 5.
 
Your spirits start to rise again today, much to your relief and you'll soon wonder what all the fuss was about yesterday. You're in the mood to have some fun this Monday, preferably with some of the people who are on the same wavelength as you. You'll also enjoy getting immersed in a favourite hobby or leisure pursuit, and feeling your worries melt away as you relax. Receptive colours are azure and lazuli. Lucky numbers are 44 and 8.
 
You're feeling rather rebellious today, especially if someone wants you to play by their rules because you're simply not prepared to do that. You may even feel that hell will have to freeze over before you obey this person, which may be a slight over-reaction on your part and certainly won't help the situation. Try not to stir up trouble simply because you want to see what will happen next. Beneficial colours are lilac and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 31 and 18.
 
You have a lot of energy and enthusiasm this Monday, and you want to make things happen. It's a great opportunity to organize something that you can look forward to, such as a forthcoming social event or a group gathering. You'll swing into action with no trouble at all, and if you've got to rope in some helpers you'll take that in your stride as well. Ideal colours are plum and silver. Lucky numbers are 9 and 52.
 
You're in the mood to spend! Maybe you've recently been given some extra cash and now you can't wait to do something exciting with it. Any sort of shopping will get your adrenalin flowing, and it may also lead to you buying much more than you intended. So a trip to the supermarket could turn out to be a major expedition in which you appear to be preparing for a siege. Favourable colours are charcoal and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 28 and 11.
 
Try to get out and about as much as possible today. You won't be very happy if you're cooped up in one place for too long, nor if you're doing something rather boring. Right now you need plenty of variety and action, otherwise you'll lose interest in whatever you're doing. Travel could appeal to you, too, whether it's the thought of a big holiday or a weekend away. Dreamy colours are opal and fawn. Lucky numbers are 12 and 76.
 
You'll be happiest when you're kept busy today, although it has to be to be on your own terms, rather than as a result of someone else's orders. You'll also be perfectly content if you can potter about in your home or garden, by yourself and tackling the chores in your own sweet time. If you're currently looking for a new home, have another look at your wish list of how you want it to be. Harmonious colours are peacock blue and rose pink. Lucky numbers are 22 and 67.
 
You're in the mood for some fun and enjoyment today and nothing less will do. You certainly won't want to hang around anyone who doesn't know how to enjoy themselves, so try to give them a miss and go for some real live wires instead. If you're single you might meet someone who really gets your adrenalin flowing. Well, what are you going to do about it? Beneficial colours are bronze and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 44 and 1.
 
This is a super day for burning off lots of nervous energy, especially if you're still feeling frazzled after what happened yesterday. Go for a brisk walk, get your money's worth out of the gym, or whack the living daylights out of some tennis balls to get you in the mood for watching Wimbledon. You'll also have bags of energy when tackling mundane chores. What a good day! Energising colours are dark grape and fire opal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 13.
 
Grab the chance to talk about your innermost feelings today, especially if you can confide in someone you trust. You don't have to make this conversation really serious or gut-wrenching, either, because even a relatively light-hearted chat will help you to release a lot of pent-up emotion. But do make sure that you do your fair share of listening as well as talking. Fortunate colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 4 and 27.
 
Don't believe everything you hear because someone is talking through their hat. They may have got the wrong end of the stick, even if they won't admit it. Alternatively, they might be trying to deceive you in some way, in which case they most certainly won't want to own up. So trust your instincts and listen out for any remarks that set your alarm bells ringing. Opportunistic colours are parchment and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 23 and 6.
 
You may love you-know-who to bits, but right now their ditzy attitude is driving you nuts. Is it because someone's being vague and flaky, or saying one thing and doing another? Be patient, because losing your temper will only make things worse than ever. Be careful if you're involved in a property deal and it's reached a crucial stage, because you may not be thinking as clearly as you imagine. Advantageous colours are amber and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
This is a great day for hitting it off with whoever happens to be around. If you're with colleagues, you'll do your best to create a harmonious and productive atmosphere.

Beneficial colours are terracotta and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 76.
 
Make time today to catch up with any paperwork that's gathering dust or quickly becoming overdue. You'll find it's much quicker to get through than you'd thought, which will come as a nice surprise. Speaking of surprises, you could hear about an unexpected payment or bonus that will be coming your way. If so, it may not be huge, but it will certainly be welcome. Bold colours are persimmon and rose. Lucky numbers are 9 and 14.
 
You've been on a roll during the past few days but things take a different turn today, leading to an uncharacteristic bout of doubt and confusion. You're feeling inadequate and overwhelmed today, which saps your energy and leaves you vulnerable to making mistakes and feeling damaged by other people's put-downs. Better retire from the fray to lick your wounds for a short while. Fortunate colours are lilac and ebony. Lucky numbers are 31 and 56.
 
You're in a very constructive and practical mood, particularly when it comes to talking to relatives or doing things around the house. If something is broken you'll do your best to fix it because you don't want to be wasteful or irresponsible. You also don't like the thought of squandering your precious time or money, and will make decisions accordingly. Beneficial colours are fuchsia and toffee. Lucky numbers are 31 and 42.
 
This promises to be a really enjoyable day, so make the most of it. You'll have a lovely time if you can relax and take life easy, preferably by doing as little as possible for as long as possible. If you can make the effort you'll enjoy going out for a meal, having a picnic in some beautiful surroundings or going to a party in your best clothes. Inspiring colours are mahogany and banana yellow. Lucky numbers are 38 and 14.
 
This is a terrific day for making plans and getting yourself organized, because you're feeling very resourceful and practical.

Friends are supportive and good company, which will inspire you to do great things. Ideal colours are peach and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 32 and 48.
 
What a charmer you are today! It would be a shame to keep yourself to yourself for too long because people will love having you around, and plenty of compliments will come your way as well. You're in exactly the right mood for a convivial lunch or even a small party, in which case you'll want to look your very best. And you will! Prosperous colours are primrose yellow and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 15 and 45.
 
It's almost impossible to pin down a certain person today because they're being so elusive and flaky. They may not even be around, or they might not answer their phone, so you can't make contact with them at all. And if they are there in body they may not be so in spirit, because their mind is obviously on other things, so you probably won't get a straight answer. Better try again tomorrow! Fortunate colours are chocolate and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 23 and 43.
 
Yesterday you were in the mood to do something unconventional but today you're feeling much more traditional, in true Capricorn Style. So what do you have in mind? Or would you prefer to be with people who fit this description, perhaps because that means you know where you are with them? At some point you'll enjoy making contact with an old friend. Fortunate colours are navy and dark red. Lucky numbers are 26 and 73.
 
You're on the hunt for a little excitement this Saturday, so you won't be pleased if your day is very predictable or nothing interesting happens.

Don't be surprised if you get an unexpected phone call or someone drops in out of the blue. Favourable colours are smoky quartz and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 14 and 10.
 
Don't be surprised if a member of the family is unpredictable or does things on the spur of the moment today. There's nothing to worry about because they won't do anything too alarming or disruptive. In fact, their actions will be like a breath of fresh air and they may even help you to escape from a current rut. So don't hesitate to be that little bit different yourself, either. Ideal colours are fawn and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 18 and 48.
 
You're feeling slightly unconventional and you're looking for activities that will reflect your mood. You certainly won't be very keen on doing things that are drearily predictable or boring, although you'll grit your teeth and get on with them if you have no choice. But ideally you should do things on the spur of the moment, preferably in the company of people who make you feel alive and alert. Relaxing colours are rich purple and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 22.
 
It's an adventurous day and you long to spread your wings in some way. You might do this by exploring an unusual topic in lots of detail or by having a break from your usual Saturday routine and doing something completely different instead. Your thoughts might also turn to holidays, making you dream about where you'll be going next. Emotional colours are dark blond and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 35 and 72.
 
You need a little excitement today, whether you're at home or at work. It won't take much to get your adrenalin flowing, and there's no need to create havoc in the process, either.

Energising colours are aquamarine and ochre. Lucky numbers are 24 and 51.
 
You need to think on your feet today, but that shouldn't be difficult for someone like you. Actually, you'll get a big kick out of putting your little grey cells to work, particularly if you're thinking about your career or the current state of your finances. The more mentally agile you can be, the more inspired your ideas, and you're on top form right now. Empowering colours are dark orange and Sage green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 27.
 
You need to vary your domestic routine slightly today to avoid feeling bored or restless, especially if the day threatens to be rather predictable.

If you're going shopping you'll be tempted by some impulse buys. Exciting colours are bright red and azure. Lucky numbers are 12 and 29.
 
Your boredom threshold is lower than usual this today so don't be surprised if you start to feel restless. Ideally, you should alter your usual routine and do something totally different, because that will certainly keep you interested in what's going on around you. Watch out if you decide to spend money because you might part with a lot more than you intended. Ideal colours are mustard yellow and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 40 and 4.
 
Going shopping today? Then don't be surprised if you splash out on items that are that little bit different from your usual purchases. For instance, if you set off for the supermarket you might end up buying lots of exotic ingredients so you can experiment with them. This is unlikely to get out of hand unless you're feeling bored or fed up, in which case you'll want to spend your way out of your current mood. Propitious colours are green and apricot. Lucky numbers are 6 and 11.
 
Follow up on the ideas you were mulling over on Thursday. You might have something more to add to them, in which case you should jot down your thoughts before they fly out of your head again. Once all that's out of the way you'll be free to enjoy yourself, preferably by doing something slightly unusual or even rather wacky. Ideal colours are sienna and ivory. Lucky numbers are 10 and 7.
 
If you're a typical Taurean you enjoy a steady routine, but this is one of those days when you really benefit from living in a more spontaneous way. So forget about your usual Saturday schedule and try to ring the changes. Even some small departures from your usual routine will make a big difference to your mood, so don't imagine that it has to be all or nothing. Energising colours are umber and lime. Lucky numbers are 9 and 60.
 
Just like on Thursday, you're in the market for a little excitement today. You don't want to raise the roof or cause a complete commotion but you would like something to happen that lifts you out of mundane, boring life. With luck you'll get just what you're looking for courtesy of a certain person who's lively and good fun to be around. A short trip will also do the trick. Ideal colours are shimmering blue and bright red. Lucky numbers are 14 and 52.
 
It's a super day for spreading your wings and enjoying yourself, so clear as much space in your schedule as possible. You'll jump at the chance of going travelling, whether that involves catching a train to a nearby town or boarding a plane for an exotic destination. You long to broaden your horizons and see more of life, even if it's in very modest ways. Fortuitous colours are butterscotch and sable. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
It's a fantastic day for making lots of progress with your work, so don't be afraid to pull out all the stops. Not that you're ever averse to hard work if you're a typical Capricorn because you thrive on it. You'll get on well whether you're working as part of a team or you're on your own, and either way you'll end the day with a strong sense of achievement. Liberating colours are khaki and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 36 and 67.
 
It's a great day for mixing and mingling with people you always get on well with, so try not to keep yourself to yourself too much as that would be a real shame on a day when you're feeling so convivial and friendly. Speaking of friends, you'll enjoy spending time with them now, especially if you share some core values. Energising colours are avocado and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
Everything's looking good today, even if you've been having a rather thin time of it recently. You're feeling positive and eager to make the most of your current opportunities, which means that you'll attract good things in your direction. If you're going out on the town you'll have a whale of a time, especially if you're with some good friends. Beneficial colours are dark brown and bright red. Lucky numbers are 3 and 90.
 
It's one of those happy days in which you're able to say the right thing at the right time, whether this is intentional or a fortunate accident. You're being diplomatic and considerate, without becoming too gushy or insincere. Dealings with partners and neighbours go well now, helped by your current ability to keep them smiling. Peaceful colours are marmalade and dark red. Lucky numbers are 13 and 28.
 
You're in a nicely emotional and loving mood today, and you'll be happiest if you can be with some of the special people in your life for at least part of the day. You don't have to do anything terribly special when you're together, either, because simply sharing a relaxing meal or watching television together will be enough. If you get talking, the conversation will turn to confidences and secrets. Happy colours are platinum and claret. Lucky numbers are 17 and 11.
 
Whatever you do today you'll want it to be worthwhile and satisfying. You'll be even happier if it's connected with some of your values and priorities in life or if it enhances your reputation in some way. There could be good news about money, perhaps when you're given a perk or bonus, or possibly a pay rise if you're very lucky. All in all, it's a really good day! Uplifting colours are platinum and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 22 and 5.
 
Make the most of your social life today, especially if that means gathering some of your favourite people around you. You're in a very sunny mood and you're looking for a good time.

Lucky numbers are 2 and 33.
 
It's one of those nice days when you feel gregarious and light- hearted, ready to have some fun whenever you get the chance. Ideally, you should arrange to see some friends or do anything else that will make you feel good. It's also a great day for taking part in a group activity, in which case you may be asked to take a starring role, even if it's only for a short time. Harmonious colours are pineapple and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 29 and 11.
 
It's a great day for enjoying home comforts, such as relaxing with close friends and family or taking the phone off the hook, pretending you're not at home and having some delicious time to yourself. If you've been working very hard lately this is a wonderful opportunity to give yourself a breather and restore your energy levels. Auspicious colours are green and almond. Lucky numbers are 10 and 44.
 
You're in a very home loving mood today, making you reluctant to stray too far from your own front door. You want to be surrounded by your creature comforts, and preferably with lots of delicious food not far away either. If you've had lots of family squabbles in the past few days you'll enjoy this peaceful interlude even more. Propitious colours are ultramarine and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 18 and 29.
 
No matter what else you're supposed to be doing today, it's a good idea to devote a little time to making sure your finances are running smoothly. You might even want to pay some bills now, rather than wait a couple of days until they're due, simply so you can make sure that you don't forget them. There should be some good news about a pay rise or perk, too. Energising colours are basalt and lime. Lucky numbers are 21 and 70.
 
This is a brilliant day to put your brain to good use. You'll come up with some really great ideas if you think outside the square. Don't feel you have to follow in other people's footsteps if you'd rather break out in a completely different direction. It's a day for doing your own thing and thinking your own thoughts, and for trusting that you're on the right track. Vibrant colours are purple sage and burnished brass. Lucky numbers are 5 and 50.
 
You're in need of some mental stimulation today to stop you getting bored or restless. In fact, you're looking for some adventure in the form of unusual events and encounters, and the more mind- boggling they are the better. Try to visit somewhere you've never been before, or get involved in a topic that really makes you think. It will do you good and you never know where it might lead. Creative colours are platinum and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 15 and 17.
 
You're a clever soul at the best of times and you certainly get the chance to prove it today. You really shine when asked to come up with good ideas, or when taking part in a brainstorming session. Don't feel bashful about showing off or putting yourself in the limelight. Besides, what's wrong with feeling proud of what you've achieved? Soaring colours are lilac and rose. Lucky numbers are 3 and 15.
 
You're feeling much more cheerful and upbeat today, which comes as a relief after all your recent difficulties. You're also thinking along very inventive lines, which is great if you're trying to come up with a clever new solution to an old problem because you might manage to crack it. Even if you don't solve the entire quandary you'll get halfway there at least. Uplifting colours are sapphire and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 23 and 47.
 
Should you follow the tried and tested route, or should you branch out on your own in some way? That's the question you're facing this Thursday, and it looks as though you're going to have to bow to convention on this occasion. Even so, you'll have the chance to introduce a few of your own ideas, and also to consider your strategy for the future. Opportune colours are auburn and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 13 and 5.
 
If you've been grappling with a knotty problem recently you could have a breakthrough today when you suddenly see the light.

Don't worry if you come up with a rather strange or unusual solution, because that may be exactly what's needed. Opportunistic colours are honeycomb and milk coffee. Lucky numbers are 31 and 25.
 
You're in a very inventive frame of mind, so don't let it go to waste.

It's time to evaluate when and how to advance your career or whether to apply for a new job. Playful colours are marigold and beige. Lucky numbers are 5 and 15.
 
You'll really enjoy the company of people who make you think today, especially if they can keep you entertained and amused at the same time. You aren't in the market for anyone who's too set in their ways or who thinks like a robot. You want lively, intellectual conversation and the chance to give your brain some exercise, and a vapid conversation about last night's TV isn't going to do it for you. Opportune colours are red ochre and white satin. Lucky numbers are 15 and 17.
 
A conversation with a loved one takes an unexpected turn today, veering off into uncharted waters or revealing pieces of information that have remained hidden until now. Don't worry, because you won't hear anything awful, although you might be told something that makes you blush or gasp. Mind you, you may also have a bombshell of your own to drop. Expressive colours are honeycomb and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 31 and 11.
 
Your brain is firing on all cylinders so make the most of this clever interlude while it lasts! You'll be able to come up with some inventive and inspired ideas, especially if you're not afraid to try something new. A loved one might be quite excitable, so they get into a flap about something or they burn up a lot of nervous energy. And it's no good telling them to calm down because it will be a waste of breath. Inspirational colours are cornflower blue and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 29 and 17.
 
If you're grappling with a financial, emotional or family problem, this is the perfect day to re-examine it from another angle. When you look at it from a completely different perspective, you'll realize that you can see the solution at long last. And about time, too! It will even be easy to convince the other people involved that you've come up with the right answer. Propitious colours are persimmon and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 29 and 3.
 
Look for some lively companions who can keep you on your toes. You're in the mood for some mental fireworks, such as getting involved in an intellectual debate with someone or watching a TV programme that has a revolutionary impact on your ideas. It's also a brilliant day for doing things on the spur of the moment and seeing what happens. Favourable colours are dark pink and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 22 and 42.
 
Family tensions get under your skin today, leading to a difficult atmosphere in which everyone is on edge. It's no good trying to sweep these awkward feelings under the carpet because they'll refuse to stay there. So be brave and tackle whatever's wrong between you, especially if it's a problem that's been brewing for a long time. This may lead to a row but perhaps that will help to resolve things once and for all. Auspicious colours are obsidian and gold. Lucky numbers are 15 and 74.
 
Take unlikely stories and tall tales with a grain of salt. Contacts may not deliberately mislead you, but people are quite fanciful today and easily carried away by enthusiasm or emotion. Expect some exaggerated claims, with unfounded optimism about how well something will turn out. Steady colours are honeycomb and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 11 and 1.
 
Someone's brain is working nineteen to the dozen, churning out ideas and suggestions like there's no tomorrow. Interesting at first, but after a while it could get rather tedious. You may also realize that some of these ideas are far-fetched or simply pie in the sky, but you don't know whether you should actually say so. Beneficial colours are russet and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 4 and 28.
 
It's important to keep a firm grip on the facts today, otherwise they'll slip out of your reach. It would not be good if someone accused you of misleading or making promises you can't deliver. This is especially likely at work or in dealing with an educational matter. Don't say things that are calculated to make you look good if they bear no relation to the facts. Steady colours are parchment and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 10 and 55.
 
Money has the potential to cause trouble today, so be warned. A loved one objects to what you're spending your money on, or thinks you're being too extravagant. Perhaps the boot is on the other foot and you're the one who's casting aspersions. A social event may have to be scaled down through a lack of cash, which is annoying but hardly the end of the world. Favourable colours are ebony and auburn. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
 
If you're fed up with what happened yesterday you'll want to say so today, or to take out your frustration on whoever happens to be around. Be careful about this because you could easily work yourself up into such a lather that you lose your temper with everyone and generally behave like a bear with a sore head. Better by far to reserve your anger for the person who deserves it than to inflict it on whoever has the misfortune to stray too close. Lively colours are scarlet and lilac. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
It's very easy to get carried away today when talking to people, and to start exaggerating wildly. You probably won't know that you're doing it at the time, although you should definitely tone things down if you do realize what's happening. Try not to give anyone the wrong impression, nor to give them false hope about something. Ideal colours are spring green and sage. Lucky numbers are 22 and 23.
 
Big ideas connected with your family or home today may be less than realistic. Don't overestimate your budget or time, or get completely carried away with enthusiasm. And keep a pinch of salt handy when listening to someone's memories, because they bear little relation to reality. Great colours are bright cherry and warm peach. Lucky numbers are 14 and 9.
 
Get a grip on yourself, because it's so easy to get carried away today. As a result you might exaggerate the importance of something or embroider a story out of all recognition, and then get caught out, much to your embarrassment. So stick to the facts from the word go, even if they aren't nearly as exciting or sensational as you'd like. Liberating colours are opal and pink satin. Lucky numbers are 16 and 10.
 
You could get carried away by the sound of your own voice today, and say a lot more than you intended or you hog most of the conversation. That's okay if you have something interesting to say, but even so you should know when to give your vocal cords a rest and let someone else have the spotlight. You've got some great ideas right now but some of them may be overambitious. Ideal colours are dusky rose and parsley green. Lucky numbers are 18 and 47.
 
Once again you're facing clashes with some of the people in your life and it's hard to see how to get round them. What's sparked off this difficult phase? How have you contributed to the situation and what can you do to improve matters? It won't help to pin all the blame on the other person, so be prepared to accept your own part in this sorry story. Practical colours are amber and green velvet. Lucky numbers are 27 and 17.
 
It's another tricky day, Archers. You feel at odds with everyone around you, especially if you feel that they want something from you. Don't take things too personally or you'll not to get through the day without losing your temper or unconsciously goading someone into losing theirs. But maybe a rip-roaring row is exactly what you need? Beneficial colours are mauve and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 6 and 10.
 
Someone is very controlling today, as you'll soon discover. They seem to think they've got the right to tell you what to do, especially if they're giving you the sort of advice you either don't want to hear or didn't ask for. Be careful if you're in charge of other people, because you'll also feel a strong compulsion to issue orders left, right and centre. Empowering colours are viridian and ochre. Lucky numbers are 27 and 60.
 
Your relationships have been highlighted recently, throwing into relief any problems or sticking points that need your attention. Today, you come face to face with some of these difficulties, reminding you that you can't keep ignoring them. You may also have to cope with someone who wants to impose their will on you, making you wonder what on earth you can do about it. Auspicious colours are striped agate and blonde. Lucky numbers are 6 and 24.
 
Beware anyone who's sanctimonious or holier-than-thou today, especially if they seem to think it gives them the moral high ground, or makes them superior to you. You won't enjoy being around them and they might provoke you into saying or doing things you'll later regret. Be particularly wary of anyone who believes in speaking the truth, no matter how much havoc or hurt they cause in the process. Empowering colours are sienna and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 17 and 52.
 
It's rapidly becoming obvious that you need to make some major changes to important parts of your life, and equally obvious that this won't be as easy as you'd like. Maybe a certain someone is opposing your plans because they feel threatened or vulnerable, or perhaps you're still in two minds about what to do for the best and are avoiding making a decision. But deep down you know that something has got to be done, and fast. Empowering colours are amethyst and neon red. Lucky numbers are 14 and 68.
 
Tread carefully today because you'll meet plenty of opposition. Try some compromise. Opponents are reluctant to back down or give you any sort of advantage, but you'll be just the same. You can't make any headway with each other unless one of you is capable of a complete change of heart and a total climb-down. And that doesn't look very likely at the moment, does it? Try some compromise. Healing colours are primrose and taupe. Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.
 
Tread carefully because someone is in a fighting mood and determined to get their own way. What's more, they won't really care how they go about it. You may have to deal with someone who allows despotic tendencies to come to the surface, or who makes no bones about telling you what to do. Do your very best not to behave in the same way, even if you're tempted, because it will only arouse other people's opposition. Empowering colours are lime and basalt. Lucky numbers are 11 and 48.
 
Take care because someone is trying to throw their weight around, making it difficult to deal with, because of their power complex. You're especially likely to meet them in the course of your work, or as a result of a medical matter. It will be hard to know how to handle them but engaging in a battle of wills will only make things worse. Fortunate colours are vermilion and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
 
A clash between the things you want and the things that someone else wants seems to leave little room to manoeuvre. You're both determined to stick to your guns and not concede an inch. Well, that's all very well but the result will be a complete impasse unless one of you is willing to back down. And that doesn't look very likely at the moment, does it? Bold colours are viridian and blond. Lucky numbers are 5 and 19.
 
Someone near to home is doing their best to exert their will. This might be a neighbour, a close relative or someone else that you see on an almost daily basis, and they're determined to make you obey their wishes. Happily, it looks as though this won't be as easy as they imagine, because you don't like being bossed around or because they're asking for the impossible. Powerful colours are coffee and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 70.
 
Do yourself a favour and avoid getting involved in any battles for power today. It certainly isn't the right day to lock horns with anyone if you can possibly avoid it, and you may even have to walk away from an argument rather than let it get out of hand. Be careful when handling money because someone may not agree with your decisions, as they make very plain. Beneficial colours are ochre and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 15.
 
You're facing a lot of opposition from certain quarters at the moment and it comes to a head today. It's a rather uncomfortable experience. Someone might pressure you to agree with them, or is it the other way round? Try not to manipulate others into giving you their support, simply because you're frightened to strike out on your own. Perhaps it's time to go your own way. Active colours are charcoal and mauve. Lucky numbers are 1 and 24.
 
Find the time today to concentrate on your hopes and wishes for the future. Are they heading in the right direction or do you need to make some adjustments? If you think changes are needed then you should be speeding into action now, while you're in the mood and all geared up to do it. But don't be surprised if a loved one objects to what you're proposing. Do they have a valid point, or are they interfering in things that are none of their concern? Expansive colours are rose quartz and bronze. Lucky numbers are 29 and 20.
 
Activities that usually go like clockwork, or are such an integral part of your daily routine that they're second nature, could hit some snags today. For instance, your electric toothbrush might suddenly go on strike, you could mislay your car keys while you're getting ready for work or your computer might refuse to do what you tell it. Annoying! Favourable colours are salmon pink and russet. Lucky numbers are 28 and 24.
 
You-know-who is a law unto themselves today and there's no way you can do anything to change that. In fact, the more you protest that they should toe the line or behave themselves, the more likely they are to do the complete opposite. Your best bet is to save your breath for the time being and wait for this person to become more reasonable again. Auspicious colours are mandarin and basalt. Lucky numbers are 16 and 23.
 
Take care because it's one of those days when boredom leads to spending money, simply to keep amused. And you know what happens then! You're likely to buy all sorts of things you don't really need and which you may not even like after a couple of days. So try to find less expensive ways of livening up the day. Playful colours are cinnamon and olive. Lucky numbers are 10 and 14.
 
Your brain is working well today, especially when you're taking part in discussions and conversations. Intellectual debate will stimulate your mind and really get you thinking.

You start the day in great spirits, thanks to some nice news that arrives via the phone or the post. After that, you can't help chatting to everyone you meet, whether you know them or not. It's the perfect day for keeping in touch with friends, family and neighbours, even if you're just chatting about the weather or arranging your social life for the week ahead. Fortunate colours are ivory and ebony. Lucky numbers are 21 and 29.
 
The more restrictions someone tries to place on you, the more resentful and rebellious you feel. Toeing the line or doing everything by the book is hard because the exact opposite is so appealing. Do your best to let off steam in less controversial and provocative ways. Favourable colours are orange and bronze. Lucky numbers are 32 and 56.
 
You'll enjoy using your brain today, especially if you're busy getting organized. For instance, you might devise a clever filing system that allows you to keep better track of those essential documents and pieces of paper that we all have, set up some direct debits with your bank so regular payments go through on time. Blitz those bills that are waiting to be paid. Beneficial colours are crimson and purple. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
You're in a very restless and unsettled mood today, making it hard to concentrate on anything for long. You're easily bored and irritated, so keep away from anyone who's reactionary or such a creature of habit that you could set your watch by them. They'll soon drive you round the bend. Spend time with people who are unpredictable or unusual. Ideal colours are passionfruit and light grey. Lucky numbers are 6 and 40.
 
A restless mood steals over you today, making it difficult for you to settle down to anything for long. You're very easily bored right now, especially when it comes to your relationships. In fact, anyone who shows the slightest hint of being predictable will soon get short shrift from you, or you'll unconsciously pick an argument with them simply to liven things up a little. Adventurous colours are grey and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 2.
 
Your priorities in life are even more important than usual today. You'll enjoy chatting about some of them to someone who shares your view of the world. Perhaps you're more interested in keeping your many of your thoughts to yourself at this stage, because your plans aren't yet ready to be shared. You may be told a secret, but can you keep it? Fortunate colours are teal and indigo. Lucky numbers are 33 and 8.
 
Get ready for a busy day! Things will be pretty hectic and you may not get much chance to sit down and relax. Your day will be enjoyable, even so, and you'll have some great chats with whoever happens to be around. It's an especially good day for nattering away with friends and neighbours. Delightful colours are primrose and teal. Lucky numbers are 11 and 9.
 
Even the bestlaid plans could go up the spout today, so be prepared for different outcomes, Gemini. It's unlikely that you'll have to face anything too tricky, but even so an unexpected blip could throw you off balance for a while. Strangely enough, the more reliable someone is usually, the more likely they are now to let you down or behave out of character. Positive colours are pumpkin and navy. Lucky numbers are 3 and 61.
 
There's a strong attraction between you and a certain someone today, and it's doing all sorts of weird things to your heart. Even if you tell yourself that this is only a harmless flirtation you'll still want it to be more than that on some level, even if you wouldn't dare admit your fantasies to a soul. But the big question is what you're going to do about it in the long run. And you don't yet know the answer to that one. Divine colours are passionfruit and white satin. Lucky numbers are 9 and 5.
 
Mighty Mars strides into your fourth house, making the next six weeks a great time to channel your energies into your home and family.

Relaxing colours are apricot and saffron. Lucky numbers are 6 and 64.
 
This is a brilliant day for your social life because you're feeling so convivial and outgoing. It would be a real shame to spend the day by yourself, because you've got so much to offer other people. You'll be happiest in the presence of a partner or some of your favourite people, but do your best to enjoy the company of whoever happens to be around. Auspicious colours are parchment and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 20 and 23.
 
You need to get out and about today, otherwise you'll start to feel cooped up. How about taking off on a day trip, whether you visit somewhere you know well or you're going there for the first time. Try to take someone along for company because you won't like spending too much time on your own. If you're staying at home, invite someone round to see you. Auspicious colours are american oak and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 10 and 46.
 
You're looking for some emotional excitement today, and the best way of getting that is to mix with people who are that little bit different. They don't have to be downright eccentric, but you won't be interested in them if they're boringly predictable or dreadfully ordinary. If you meet someone new they'll have to be really dazzling in order to catch your eye. Bold colours are mahogany and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 6 and 10.
 
You're in the market for plenty of fun and games during the next few weeks, especially if they're rather daring or reckless. But don't do anything too foolhardy in case it backfires on you. Thanks to rampaging Mars, in fiery Aries, love and lust will also be on the agenda between now and late July. Do not confuse the two, because that will lead to broken hearts. Empowering colours are purple and lime. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
Spend time with friends and other people who are on the same wavelength as you.

If you can find the time, you'll enjoy getting on with a favourite hobby. Fortunate colours are apricot and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 7 and 8.
 
You need plenty of scope today, both emotionally and mentally. You don't like the idea of being tied down or restricted, so do your best to wriggle out of anything that threatens to be too predictable or tedious. It just isn't your cup of tea at the moment, as you'll make plain if necessary. Do things on the spur of the moment and as the fancy takes you. Adventurous colours are spearmint and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 15 and 67.
 
You're in a very dynamic mood from today, and you'll also have plenty of energy between now and late July. This might give you the impetus and confidence to launch some new projects or to do something that you've never tried before. It will be fun to push yourself further than usual or to tackle an ambitious venture. Dynamic colours are shimmering gold and sparkling grape. Lucky numbers are 13 and 71.
 
Your ambitions get a massive boost from today, Cancer. This happy state of affairs will continue for the next few weeks.

If you want to apply for promotion or a new job, do it now while so much is working in your favour. But don't let your ambitions turn to ruthlessness. Advantageous colours are beige and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 7 and 44.
 
Do something different for a change this Sunday, especially if you're stuck in the same old routine.

How about a day trip to somewhere you've always wanted to visit, or Sunday lunch out instead of at home? You need to live a little. Harmonious colours are caramel and lavender. Lucky numbers are 13 and 48.
 
As mighty Mars, your life-ruler enters the fearsome sign of the Ram, your energy levels surge. Over the next few weeks you definitely need to be active and take command. If you don't already belong to a gym you might be inspired to join one, or take on a daily exercise regime. Keep on the go, as you'll soon feel agitated and impatient if you're held back. Vibrant colours are bright red and violet. Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
 
The boundaries of your brain start to expand today, as lively Mercury enters your ninth house, Over the next couple of weeks you'll go through a very inquisitive phase in which you want to learn lots more about the world than you currently know. Such a thirst for knowledge might steer you towards some higher education, such as an evening class or a distance learning programme. Good for you! Lively colours are emerald and pale violet. Lucky numbers are 5 and 12.
 
You'll really excel at communicating with others during the next few weeks, and if you're usually rather quiet you'll be amazed at yourself. In fact, you may even find that you tend to hog the conversations, even if this isn't your normal style. As for your phone bill - it could be quite hefty by the end of June! Nevertheless, this is a super time for being chatty and gregarious. Harmonious colours are taupe and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 15 and 71.
 
From today you embark on a phase in which it will be even more important than usual for you to talk to the people in your life.

But if there is anything important to say then you should give it priority during the next few weeks. And don't forget to listen as well as talk! Communicative colours are old gold and ivory. Lucky numbers are 6 and 17.
 
The coming fortnight is an excellent time for examining money matters and reaching important decisions.

During the next couple of weeks you'll really enjoy using your brain.

You might also enter a competition and win it! Powerful colours are ebony and azure. Lucky numbers are 8 and 17.
 
Today your mental focus switches from your career to your hopes and wishes for the future. During the next couple of weeks you should think about your future plans, especially if that means working out how you can make some of them a reality. This will also be an excellent phase for keeping in touch with your friends and with anyone else who's on your wavelength. Ambitious colours are lavender and maroon. Lucky numbers are 3 and 12.
 
You'll have a lot of work to get through during the next few weeks, so make sure your body is able to cope with it. Get plenty of rest, rather than burning the candle at both ends, and don't skimp on decent food, either. At times you may feel rather fraught because you've got so much to do, in which case it will be important to tackle tasks in their order of priority. Fortunate colours are blueberry and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 32.

During the next few weeks you'll be wrapped up in your own ideas and concerns.

Make a conscious effort to talk to others about themselves, rather than hogging the entire conversational limelight. Creative colours are copper and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 25 and 17.
 
Think carefully about your joint and official finances as tricky Mercury dances into your eighth house of other people's money.

Talk to an expert if necessary, such as a bank manager or financial adviser, and get yourself sorted out. Auspicious colours are hyacinth and amber. Lucky numbers are 29 and 45.
 
During the next two weeks you'll want to retreat into your shell every now and then, and to keep a low profile. Look on this as an opportunity to mull things over at your own pace and to reflect on everything that's happened to you over the past eleven months. At times you'll be less chatty than usual, but reassure loved ones that it doesn't mean you no longer care about them. Beneficial colours are plum and ebony. Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.
 
Your family will be on your mind a lot during the coming two weeks. You might want to spend more time with them than usual, or you may enjoy looking through old photos and thinking about the past. This is a very good time to look back on your life, provided that you don't become so nostalgic that you paint a falsely rosy picture of how things used to be. Positive colours are fuchsia and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 25 and 48.
 
There's only one thing you're interested in today, and that's having as much fun as you can. But will this be possible? Try not to jeopardize your job by ignoring your work in favour of play instead. Get all the work out of the way first and then concentrate on letting your hair down with a clear conscience. Energising colours are sable and vanilla fudge. Lucky numbers are 31 and 45.
 
It's a tense day, but don't make it worse than it already is by starting silly squabbles and spats. The better you know someone, the more likely they are to get under your skin and irritate you. They might have the not-so-clever knack of saying the one thing that's guaranteed to make you grit your teeth with frustration, or an unfortunate manner that you don't know how to deal with. Beneficial colours are tudor rose and cream. Lucky numbers are 10 and 45.
 
A loved one has a very sharp tongue today, so be warned. Sarcastic comments and nitpicking are the flavour of the day. Alternatively, you'll be the one who's making unpleasant remarks. If so, ask yourself why and try to find more productive ways of communicating with other people. Favourable colours are auburn and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 3 and 10.
 
Someone is stroppy and sharp-tongued today and once you've had a taste of their behaviour, you should avoid them like the plague. Do your best to avoid behaving in the same way, especially if you find yourself being bossy to underlings or using sarcasm as your main weapon in an argument. What's really bugging you and what can you do about it? Ideal colours are almond and marigold. Lucky numbers are 14 and 56.
 
It's one of those days when you long to indulge yourself in every way possible. It's bad luck if you're at work because that will be the last thing on your mind, and you'll probably try to make a long coffee break slide into an extended lunch hour, followed by a modest amount of work before it's time for tea. The idea of going out on the town is far too enticing to resist, but you may regret it tomorrow morning. Auspicious colours are blueberry and lemon. Lucky numbers are 35 and 21.
 
There's a rather tense atmosphere today although it could be difficult to put your finger on what's wrong. All you know is that it feels as though you can't say or do anything right, or that even mundane conversations turn into a slanging match. If someone provokes you, you're quite likely to retaliate with some stinging or sarcastic responses. Think twice before exposing a secret in the course of an argument. Is it really such a good idea? Beneficial colours are apricot and fudge. Lucky numbers are 16 and 68.
 
Someone's very quick to make hurtful and cutting comments today, much to your annoyance. They may be very sarcastic, or there could be such a sharp edge to their tongue that it really ought to carry a government health warning. Mind you, you aren't exactly feeling completely cool yourself, and will defend your ideas as though they're a matter of life and death. Liberating colours are platinum and auburn. Lucky numbers are 25 and 34.
 
Verbal brickbats are flying in all directions today, so get ready to duck. Some of the comments you receive might cut you to the quick, or maybe you'll retaliate with some sharp words of your own. If you do give as good as you get, try not to say anything really hurtful and which might come back to haunt you further down the line. It's not worth the hassle! Advantageous colours are hazel and pearl. Lucky numbers are 12 and 10.
 
You need to enjoy yourself, Cancer, so don't do anything else. Spend the day in familiar surroundings, or with people you know really well, having as good a time as possible. Even if you can't devote the day to having fun, at least try to fit in some enjoyable activities at some point, especially if they involve delicious food and drink. Sociable colours are indigo and white. Lucky numbers are 11 and 23.
 
A certain person is in fighting form today and won't take any prisoners. As a result, you could fall foul of their nasty temper or ability to cut you down to size with a few well-chosen words. If you're wise you'll avoid goading them into further outbursts. Or are you the one who's using words as your chief weapon? If so, what's got into you? Bold colours are blackberry and maple. Lucky numbers are 23 and 40.
 
No matter what you do today, Leo, extract as much enjoyment from it as you can. That shouldn't be too difficult, as it looks like being one of the best days in the whole of June. Although you're feeling sociable you'll want to spend some time by yourself as well, giving you the best of both worlds. Watch the budget if you go shopping because you won't know where to stop. Exciting colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
 
Work is a four-letter word as far as you're concerned today, and you want to have as little to do with it as possible. But is that feasible without landing yourself in hot water or making yourself very unpopular with your colleagues? Get the work out of the way before you can enjoy yourself. When you do get the chance to let your hair down, try not to do it with such enthusiasm that you feel utterly wretched tomorrow morning. Empowering colours are spearmint and brass. Lucky numbers are 32 and 33.
 
If you want a hassle-free life you should try not to arrange any new trips or journeys today in case something goes wrong with them. Even pre-arranged journeys could be affected by delays and setbacks, so you'd better take some reading matter with you in case you're left twiddling your thumbs. You should also double-check that you've got everything you need before setting out, such as your car keys or your passport. Beneficial colours are lapis lazuli and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 10 and 6.
 
Try not to start any new projects today because they're unlikely to get off the ground in the way you want. For instance, a proposal may fizzle out long before it sees the light of day, or if you make an arrangement with someone they might let you down. Instead of starting anything new, concentrate on existing projects and activities. Stabilising colours are butterscotch and crimson. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
Do yourself a favour and avoid arranging any social events today. Nothing may come of them, perhaps because they're cancelled or one of you fails to show up at the appointed hour.

Lucky numbers are 22 and 40.
 
Be wary about buying or selling anything important or valuable today because your plans could go awry. For instance, there might be a fault with something that you buy, or the payment that you receive for an item that you've sold might never materialize. Instead, use the day to go over your financial arrangements and check that they're okay. Fortunate colours are banana yellow and avocado. Lucky numbers are 6 and 57.
 
There's very little to worry about today, although you should be prepared for social events to run slightly less smoothly than you'd expected. For instance, if you've arranged to meet someone there could be a hitch before you're able to get together or you might both turn up at different times. A creative project may also undergo a temporary snag. Propitious colours are ash blond and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
 
Concentrate on projects that are already up and running today and postpone starting anything new. Any project that gets off the ground today could soon come a cropper or may never fulfil its promise. This is especially likely if it's connected with your job or your health, so don't take the risk in the first place. Diplomatic colours are sea green and burgundy. Lucky number is 29.
 
If you were hoping to confide in someone today, you could be disappointed at the way things turn out. The right moment might not arrive, or you may not manage to meet up after all. If you want to get the best out of the day, aim to spend some time by yourself, preferably finishing off projects you've already started rather than beginning anything new. Stable colours are plum and jade. Lucky numbers are 12 and 18.
 
If you start anything new today don't expect it to get very far. It might be a new venture that fizzles out through lack of interest, or an appointment that has to be altered after a last-minute change of plan. Try to postpone writing and sending any important letters or forms because they could get lost along the way or contain a mistake. Fortunate colours are aqua and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 18.
 
Any form of teamwork is likely to hit snags today when people let you down or things simply don't go the way you want. This will be irritating and disappointing but try not to overreact, as though it's the end of the world. Prevent any more problems by not making any new arrangements today. Wait until tomorrow when things stand a better chance of working out in the way you want. Creative colours are gold and brown. Lucky numbers are 10 and 19.
 
It's a lovely day for enjoying your social life and for catching up on all the news with your other half. However, you should be prepared for disruptions and last-minute changes of plan if you try to arrange anything new. For instance, you may have to postpone a meeting if you arrange it today, and if you're trying to set up some form of collaboration it may never see the light of day. Fortunate colours are amethyst and basalt. Lucky numbers are 24 and 41.
 
If you want to avoid making trouble for yourself, you'd be wise to postpone starting any new financial arrangements today, especially if they're connected with major companies such as insurance firms or mortgage lenders. Such arrangements are unlikely to stand the test of time and could easily fall apart at the seams or generate a lot of hassle. Better by far to follow up on existing financial arrangements for the time being. Positive colours are magenta and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 24 and 71.
 
This isn't a good day in which to start anything new, especially if it's connected with your home or family, because it could easily go wrong or fizzle out. Instead, concentrate on projects that are already up and running. Any social arrangements that you make today might fall apart and never happen, so be warned if you're planning something important. You might be wise to wait for a day before swinging into action. Fortunate colours are jade and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 25 and 51.
 
You've got a heart of gold this Wednesday and you aren't embarrassed to show it. You might make a big effort to help an older relative or chum who's having a bad time at the moment, whether that means doing their shopping or cleaning for them, or simply letting them talk to you. You could also play an important part in a charitable or voluntary project. Fortunate colours are silver and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 31 and 27.
 
You're brimming over with consideration and affection today, which is good news for the people who are lucky enough to be around you. So don't be surprised if you feel more popular or in greater demand than usual. You may also get the chance to do a friend a good turn, in which case you should jump at it, especially if you're returning an earlier favour. Lively colours are white and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
It's another day when you're feeling romantic and dreamy, and reluctant to get involved in the harsher side of life. You may also put a loved one on a lofty pedestal, telling yourself that they're absolutely perfect. It's OK for a short while, but you'll set yourself up for a major disappointment if you persist in thinking your angel is a god in human form.

Auspicious colours are charcoal and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 27 and 77.
 
Are you being ultra-sensitive, or is someone sticking their big nose in where it's not wanted? A lot of personal questions are raised. Is this prying?

Is it your imagination or is a certain someone being very nosy or inquisitive? This person simply can't mind their own business, especially if they think they have the right to pry into your affairs.

Opportunistic colours are opal and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 10 and 11.
 
Life isn't exactly plain sailing at the moment and today you have to cope with someone who appears to be doing their level best to tell you how to think.

The question is how easy it will be to stand up to them or whether you have little choice but to let them boss you around. Harmonious colours are bronze and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 22 and 24.
 
Once again you're caught up in a disagreement with someone. They seem to have a very good idea of how you should live your life, and they can't stop themselves telling you all about it.

Beneficial colours are ultramarine and bronze. Lucky numbers are 12 and 13.
 
You're in a very domesticated mood today and you won't want to stray too far from your own front door if you can possibly avoid it.

Fortunate colours are kiwifruit and violet. Lucky numbers are 25 and 65.
 
Right now you're very wrapped up in whatever or whoever makes your world go round, and you can't stop thinking about such things.

Be especially careful not to sound as though you're boasting about your good fortune, even though this may not be intentional. Positive colours are tangerine and fawn. Lucky numbers are 25 and 75.
 
A colleague or customer is very chatty today.

Positive colours are amethyst and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 24 and 11.
 
If you've got all the time in the world to listen, the chatterboxes will entertain you, but it can be annoying if you can't get a few words into the conversation yourself.

A certain person is feeling very hot-tempered and rash today.

Someone got out of bed on the wrong side this morning, so put on your tin hat before talking to them. Although this crotchety phase won't last long, it won't be much fun.

Sensitive colours are striped agate and lime. Lucky numbers are 16 and 54.
 
This is just the day for showing someone how much you care about them, especially a friend or partner.

Some people are showing a distinct lack of patience. That snappy mood and bad temper will quickly rub off on whoever happens to be around.

Advantageous colours are blonde and pink velvet. Lucky numbers are 19 and 29.
 
You have to mind your Ps and Qs when talking to someone in power or authority today because they're in such a filthy temper. Nothing you say is right, and they seem to be spoiling for an argument.

Empowering colours are copper and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 25 and 30.
 
You're in an unsettled state today, making it hard to calm down for long. As a result, you may leave a trail of half-finished projects in your wake.

Do your best to avoid getting drawn into a battle of wills today because it won't be a pleasant experience.

Ambitious colours are bright white and chocolate fudge. Lucky numbers are 12 and 27.
 
A certain person is hard to handle today. In fact, they're almost impossible to deal with because they've gone into complete control- freak mode and are being completely unreasonable whenever they fail to get their own way. Now, forgive me for mentioning this, but you aren't the one who's behaving like this, are you? Let's hope not, anyway! Steady colours are crimson and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 6 and 9.
 
A certain someone is determined to prove a point today and doesn't really care how. Do not deliberately court controversy or react to someone trying to prove they're a rebel. If you're at work you may have to cope with someone who refuses to play by the rules or who wants to create a stir in order to grab everyone's attention. Not an easy day! Beneficial colours are maroon and apricot. Lucky numbers are 6 and 7.
 
You need to tread carefully when dealing with a certain person, because they're determined to have everything their own way, even at the expense of a major row. They're being wilful and manipulative, and ideally you should keep as much distance between you as possible. This is especially important if they're in a position of authority over you. Beneficial colours are burgundy and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 27 and 69.
 
June gets off to an unpredictable start in which you're left wondering what on earth is going on. There could be a bolt from the blue to contend with, or a secret might be unearthed, to everyone's consternation. Try to avoid talking about controversial topics such as religion and politics because they're almost guaranteed to wind other people up. Advantageous colours are red ochre and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 5 and 23.
 
You need plenty of leeway today, otherwise you'll feel bored and hemmed in. Ideally, you should introduce lots of variety into your day before you reach the stage of wanting to climb the walls, because once that happens who knows what you'll do to make life more interesting. Have a row with your boss? Offend someone influential? You'll want to let off steam and you may not care how you do it. Not good news! Fortunate colours are dark yellow and mauve. Lucky numbers are 5 and 40.
 
You're full of ideas today, especially where your work is concerned. In fact there will be no shortage of them, but the trick is to sort out the good ones from the bad. So, remember it's quality rather than quantity that counts this Wednesday, especially if you want to share your thoughts with your boss or colleagues. Auspicious colours are parchment and almond. Lucky numbers are 12 and 4.
 
All social events go with a swing today. You're in exactly the right sort of mood to mix with people, even if they aren't your favourite choice of companion. If things have been slightly tense with a neighbour or close relative recently, this is a marvellous opportunity to pour oil on troubled waters, perhaps by apologizing if necessary or simply by charming them out of their grumpy attitude. Insightful colours are mushroom and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 20 and 32.
 
Someone is being contrary and hard to deal with today. They seem determined to do the opposite of whatever you want. This sort of unhelpful attitude will drive you batty if you let it get to you, so instead let it run off like water off a duck's back. You may also face frustration if you're trying to separate yourself from the influence of your family and they keep trying to lure you back into the fold. Practical colours are gold and beige. Lucky numbers are 26 and 35.
 
Someone is easily distracted today, making them unpredictable and a bit of a loose cannon. You have no way of knowing what they're going to do from one minute to the next, although embarrassing you seems to be high on the list of probabilities. Keep your cool because the more ruffled you are, the more you'll encourage this person to commit further outrages. Besides, is it really so awful? Favourable colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 11 and 76.
 
Don't get carried away by enthusiasm and end up committing to things that you can't really handle. Do you have the time? You'll kick yourself about it later on if you don't. You should also avoid talking about politics or religion, because you might say the wrong thing. Advantageous colours are mulberry and lime. Lucky numbers are 12 and 62.
 
Big ideas? You've got stacks of them today and they keep on coming. The trick is not to restrict or limit them, but not to follow up on every one of them either. If you wait a short while, you may decide that some of your brainwaves aren't worth pursuing, but others will definitely look promising, and those will be the ones to concentrate on. Energising colours are violet and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 2 and 4.
 
The month gets off to a rather tense start, Scorpio, and you're feeling restless and agitated. The merest hint of a restriction or imposition will really irritate you, and may even make you rebel in ways that are completely over the top. Not that you care about such things right now, although you will in a few days' time when you feel calmer. Inspiring colours are pale violet and apricot. Lucky numbers are 13 and 8.
 
Is someone trying to spend your money for you? They may be doing it with the best of intentions, but even so they may come up with ideas that are a lot more expensive or ambitious than you can manage. If you're at work you'll enjoy doing some brainstorming and showing off your razor-sharp intellect. Favourable colours are almond and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 15 and 20.
 
You're desperately trying to be a person in your own right, but it seems that a certain someone is very reluctant to let you do this. In fact, they may try to block your progress in some way, perhaps by harking back to the past you once shared, or overreacting to every indication of your growing individuality. It's frustrating, but try to rise above it. Expansive colours are dark grape and aqua. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
The last thing you want today is to be with people who try to clip your wings or tie you down in any way. Right now you're a free spirit and no one can tell you what to do. Do yourself a favour and keep away from people who suffocate you emotionally, or who are boringly predictable. You've got no patience with them at the moment. Dynamic colours are rich honey and milk coffee. Lucky numbers are 4 and 22.
 
You end the month on a practical note, full of common sense and eager to make the most of your valuable time. You aren't in the mood to waste anything, whether it's your words, your time, your energy or your cash. If you need to make a decision about a pet, this is a good day for getting a second opinion or researching your options. Expressive colours are aqua and ginger. Lucky numbers are 3 and 22.
 
A certain person is being ultra possessive and moody today, making it difficult to be around them for long. Maybe they think they own you and they can dictate your every move, or perhaps they go into a big sulk whenever you vanish from their sight. Try to nip this in the bud before it becomes an established pattern of behaviour between you. If it's already all too familiar you may have to put your foot down. Auspicious colours are dark purple and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 9 and 69.
 
This is a lovely day for getting together with friends. You're feeling highly sociable and it would be an awful shame to spend too much time on your own. You'll enjoy chatting about shared interests, and one person may even suggest that you join a club that they belong to because they think you'd like it. It's definitely worth following up. Empowering colours are steel grey and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 54.
 
You're in a conventional mood today, happy to follow tried and tested patterns of behaviour rather than to strike out in bold new directions. That means you might prefer to meet up with old friends you've known since the year dot instead of people you're still getting to know. If you're involved in a discussion or negotiation you'll take a traditional approach, especially if it's one that's worked for you in the past. Comforting colours are old gold and green grape. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.
 
Think about the progress you've made this month. Are you happy with what you've achieved? If you're working towards a project that has yet to see the light of day, this is the perfect opportunity to evaluate it and to plan your next step. However, you should be wary of sharing your ideas with too many people at this stage, in case you say too much or dissipate your energies. Favourable colours are grapefruit and jade. Lucky numbers are 35 and 3.
 
Someone's feeling very sentimental and nostalgic today, so don't be surprised if they go all weepy. Maybe you're feeling like this too, in which case you'll enjoy looking through some treasured keepsakes, such as old letters or special photos. It's a lovely day for being with various members of the family, even if you're only having a cup of tea together. Strong colours are blackberry and sable. Lucky numbers are 27 and 19.
 
You can really learn from experience today, Scorpio. Even everyday happenings will teach you something, so don't expect to have an earth-shattering encounter that suddenly turns you into an enlightened being. It's unlikely to happen like that. Instead, pay attention to the little details, such as the way someone behaves or your instinctive reactions to them. Expressive colours are lemon and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 30.
 
Someone is being very demanding and they want to get your attention. They may also be rather miffed if you're too busy to spend much time with them, so you'll have to handle them carefully. You aren't very keen on the idea of hard work this Tuesday, which is bad news if you're facing a lot of it. You'll look for any excuse to down tools and do something more pleasant. Ideal colours are navy and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 3 and 62.
 
Busy, busy, busy! You're in such a hurry today that you don't know what to do first. Well, try to work out a schedule otherwise you'll waste a lot of your energy by going round in circles or getting in a state about silly things. You might also get very irritable with anyone who's operating at a slower pace than you or who seems to have their head in the clouds. Right now, you're better off if left to your own devices. Vibrant colours are snow white and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 26 and 68.
 
You don't have a lot of self-discipline today, so be careful if you're supposed to be watching your weight or monitoring what you eat, because you'll want to forget all that and indulge yourself instead. It would be far better to allow yourself a little treat and then return to your strict regime than to hold out until temptation gets the better of you and hurtles you into a massive binge. Ideal colours are black and blonde. Lucky numbers are 27 and 20.
 
There's a lot you can learn today, about all sorts of things, if you keep your mind open. Even an everyday act such as reading the newspaper or watching the television could leave you much better informed, and may even spark your curiosity and make you want to investigate something in a lot more detail. You may also consider signing up for a course or class in a subject that you've always wanted to know more about. Beneficial colours are sunflower yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 13 and 45.
 
You could do with some light relief after the excitement of the past couple of days, so give yourself a break and get together with someone who always makes you laugh. Even so, the emotional temperature is still running high after yesterday so you need to find ways of keeping calm. How about channelling all this tension into enjoyable physical activities, such as dancing or jogging? Favourable colours are spring green and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 8 and 4.
 
Loved ones have a lot to offer today, and you want to return the favour. You could be bowled over by the affection that a certain person shows you, or you might sweep them off their feet. If you've been wondering whether to make the first move with someone, take a gamble this Monday and see what happens. It might be the best thing you've done in a very long time. Beneficial colours are cream and toffee. Lucky numbers are 10 and 29.
 
Unfortunately, there's more tension to cope with today, as loved ones become stroppy and impatient. There could also be a lot of emotional demands from an older member of the family, which puts everyone else on the defensive and makes them feel that too much is being expected of them. There could be a temptation to behave badly today but try to rise above it. Dynamic colours are amethyst and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 49.
 
If you're feeling drained after yesterday's emotional rollercoaster you need to recuperate by having fun. In a perfect world you should get together with some of your favourite friends and let your hair down. If work or other commitments mean that's impossible, at least try to meet up with a chum for a coffee or a quick drink, or arrange to see them later in the week. You need something nice to look forward to! Ideal colours are dark gold and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 38 and 19.
 
You're surrounded by good luck today, so don't waste it. That doesn't mean you should take enormous risks and wild gambles in the belief that you can't lose, because that would be crazy. Nevertheless, you could find that you're in the right place at the right time, or that someone offers you the sort of opportunity you could normally only dream of. So don't look a gift horse in the mouth but don't push your luck either. Revealing colours are ginger and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 14 and 15.
 
You're in a very bouncy and good-humoured mood, which will help you win friends and influence people left, right and centre. This is just what you need if you're going to be the focus of attention for some reason, or if you want to make a big impact on a certain person. Even a brief chat with a friend or neighbour will show you at your most dazzling and gregarious. Fantastic! Fortunate colours are ginger and dark red. Lucky numbers are 30 and 12.
 
This is a brilliant day for spending time with close family and friends. You'll love being with people you know inside out, and the sense of familiarity and camaraderie between you will help you to relax and feel safe. If you're thinking about redecorating your home, start making your plans but work out a budget you can afford, otherwise you could easily get carried away. Insightful colours are charcoal and lemon. Lucky numbers are 39 and 66.
 
There's tension in the air today, creating an atmosphere in which you feel as though you're walking on eggshells. To make matters worse, there may be reasons why you can't lose your temper with a certain person, perhaps because it would cause a lot of trouble or put your job in jeopardy. If so, try to release your anger in constructive ways otherwise you'll stew all day long and end up feeling wretched. Expressive colours are hazelnut and orange. Lucky numbers are 10 and 51.
 
You're in a jovial, ebullient mood today, so enjoy yourself at every opportunity. You're also feeling rather lucky so you might be tempted to rise to a challenge because you're absolutely convinced that you can master it. Can you? It's a great day for testing yourself, but don't take foolish risks that you wouldn't normally contemplate. Luck is one thing, but miracles are quite another. Dynamic colours are brass and black onyx. Lucky numbers are 34 and 45.
 
It's one of those days when familiarity breeds contempt. In other words, the better you know someone the more likely they are to get up your nose now. An added irritation may be that you're silently seething about something that happened in the past and which everyone else may have forgotten about but is still fresh in your memory. Try not to brood over past hurts and slights if there's nothing you can do about them now. What good will they do you? Expressive colours are ebony and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 25 and 27.
 
Things promise to go really well for you today, especially if you're at work. But you'll have to put in some effort in order to get results, so don't imagine that sitting back with your feet up will do the trick if you're supposed to hard at it instead. The trouble is that you're feeling very laid-back, so it will be hard to get motivated. But if you can get started, the results will be more than worth it. Auspicious colours are lime and lavender. Lucky numbers are 11 and 9.
 
Money burns a hole in your pocket today, especially if you've just been paid! It will be so difficult to avoid temptation that you're almost bound to end up spending some cash on something, but you don't have to take it to extremes, do you? Or do you? Try to exercise some moderation, even if it is the boring option. You may be grateful for it by the middle of next month. Ideal colours are caramel and coffee. Lucky numbers are 12 and 43.
 
You're in a very gregarious and jovial mood today and you want to share it with some of the special people in your life. Or do you have only one person in mind? If things went pear-shaped yesterday, this is your opportunity to make amends. You'll find it easier to say sorry and mean it than you might think, so get it out of the way and then do your best to put the whole experience behind you. Adventurous colours are passionfruit and grape. Lucky numbers are 4 and 18.
 
Beware anyone who thinks they're a victim or a saint today because they'll submit you to an awful lot of emotional blackmail in order to get their own way. You may not notice what's going on at the time, although the penny will drop later on when you start to feel annoyed about the way you were manipulated into doing what this person wanted. Better make sure you don't behave in the same way yourself. Ideal colours are almond and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 17 and 37.
 
Emotions take on a compulsive quality, making all your relationships feel highly charged. One of these relationships could have a transforming effect on you because of what happens now. Even so, you should try to keep emotional matters in proportion, otherwise they could assume such massive importance for you that you can't view them in their true light. Revealing colours are mixed shades and peach. Lucky numbers are 3 and 8.
 
There's a lot going on under the surface you don't want to admit to. Maybe you're really worried about one thing, but you're deflecting your anxiety on to other topics instead. Take care, because you're in an emotionally vulnerable state and problems will assume massive proportions if you let them. Talk to someone who will understand. Beneficial colours are rose and violet. Lucky numbers are 7 and 25.
 
A certain person equates age or position with power today, making them very bossy and dictatorial. They are also determined to get their own way, even if it causes a lot of unpleasantness in the process. Make sure you don't behave in the same way yourself because it won't win you any friends and may even set someone against you. Favourable colours are jade and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 29.
 
You're trying to improve your relationships at the moment and today you have to cope with a tricky and tense atmosphere between you and a certain person. Take care because things could easily get out of hand, leading to a compulsive atmosphere in which the emotional temperature rises by several notches and you both say things you don't mean. Try to get to the bottom of what's wrong and sort it out with as little fuss and enmity as possible. Fortunate colours are chocolate and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 14 and 69.
 
Emotional weather between you and a certain person is looking stormy, to say the least. There's a lot of mistrust, jealousy and insecurity in the air, making either one of you behave like the other one's gaoler. Don't let your Scorpio tendency to be possessive and suspicious get the better of you now because it will cause endless trouble. Do your best to maintain some emotional balance. Ideal colours are pumpkin and sepia. Lucky numbers are 35 and 64.
 
Tread carefully today because there's a lot going on under the surface. You could get locked in a battle of wills with someone you love, forcing you to look more deeply at your relationship. Love has the potential to transform your life right now, but only if you're ready to see how things really are rather than how you would like them to be. Expressive colours are gunmetal grey and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 14.
 
Take care Virgo, otherwise you'll be drawn into an emotional stalemate with someone today. Someone feels in need of your attention and they don't seem to care how they get it, so they'll indulge in some manipulative tactics if necessary. This is especially likely if they think it's your job to make a big fuss of them, but the more they're determined to make you dance attendance on them, the more you'll be determined to do no such thing. It will all take a lot of energy. Fortunate colours are oyster and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 8 and 47.
 
As far as a certain person is concerned, their current emotional needs outweigh everything else. This means they're expecting you to pander to their every demand and request, and they'll get really stroppy if you fail to play ball. Or maybe you're the one who's demanding that everyone pays you plenty of attention? If so, try to control your feelings otherwise you'll only succeed in setting loved ones against you. Great colours are taupe and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 8 and 63.
 
A relationship goes through testing times today, but it doesn't have to spell disaster. There could be an emotional battle between the two of you in which you compete for the upper hand, but if you're prepared to let one another have your say this could lead to increased understanding between you. You might also have a profound experience because of someone else, because all encounters have the potential to be highly-charged right now. Favourable colours are shell pink and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 1.
 
Watch out for anyone who uses a moral or religious argument to get their own way today. For instance, they may imply that you're a bad person for not going along with their demands, or they might use their beliefs as an excuse for getting their own way. There's no arguing with this person because they aren't behaving irrationally, and you may prefer to keep your distance once you cotton on to the games they're playing. Insightful colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 10 and 67.
 
The atmosphere between you and a special someone is extremely potent and intense this Sunday. As a result, it's almost bound to lead to some difficult moments between you, especially if one of you becomes jealous or controlling. Any current problems between you will become emphasized, giving you the chance to resolve them. You certainly can't brush them under the carpet any longer. Dynamic colours are electric blue and cherry pink. Lucky numbers are 20 and 70.
 
You need to start thinking about important financial matters from today, such as pension schemes, saving plans and mortgages. Don't forget your tax situation, either. None of this is likely to make you want to dance round the room from sheer joy, but spending time on your finances over the next few weeks will pay off in the end by increasing your assets and making you feel more in control of your money. Favourable colours are ginger and oyster. Lucky numbers are 20 and 24.
 
The next couple of weeks will be the ideal time to think hard about your career and ambitions, and to decide in which direction they're heading. Are you pleased with the progress you're making or do you suspect that you've got to scrap your plans and start again from scratch? It will help to write down your thoughts and ideas so you can keep referring to them. Beneficial colours are teal blue and tan. Lucky numbers are 7 and 36.
 
What a difference a day makes. Yesterday you had your chin on the ground, but today you're able to look the world in the eye again. You're keen to make up for lost time by doing things that are exciting and mentally stimulating, such as visiting somewhere for the first time. You're also eager to rise to a challenge and prove something to yourself. Good luck! Favourable colours are oyster and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 38 and 54.
 
You enter a reflective state of mind from today, and you'll remain in a contemplative mood until early June. This is a great chance to spend plenty of time alone, mulling over what's been going on in your life recently and assessing your current situation. But bear in mind that you'll feel almost tongue-tied at times, making it difficult for you to put your feelings into words. It will help to tell loved ones how you're feeling, otherwise they may think you've clammed up on them or are giving them the cold shoulder for some reason. Fortunate colours are teal blue and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 39 and 72.
 
The coming fortnight will be a great opportunity to think about your daily schedule. Does it suit you? Or are you bored with it and looking for ways to liven it up? This will also be a good time to read up on any health matters that might concern you, to get the advice of your doctor or dentist, or to take your pet to the vet for a check-up. Fortunate colours are amber and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 17 and 12.
 
The coming couple of weeks are great for using your brain. Try your luck at competitions, quizzes and puzzles, in case your sharp wits can win you a prize, or you could go through a very jokey and playful phase. It will also bring fun with children and the chance for taking them on outings to such places as the zoo or the beach. Creative colours are chestnut and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 22 and 46.
 
You'll be extremely chatty and sociable during the next two weeks, so get set for a really busy phase. You might also be dashing hither and thither as you try to cram forty-eight hours into every twenty-four, with plenty of short journeys and meetings to keep you fully occupied. There's no doubt that your brain will be buzzing, but you'll need periods of rest to avoid burning yourself out. Expansive colours are spring green and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 27 and 19.
 
Intellectual topics will give you plenty to think about during the next two weeks and you'll enjoy discussing your thoughts with people who are on the same wavelength as you. You might even have some wide-ranging discussions that encourage you to organize your thoughts and review your opinions. The coming fortnight will also be a great opportunity to make contact with friends you haven't spoken to in a while. Fortunate colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 13 and 27.
 
You need to spend time thinking about your possessions, finances and general values between now and mid June. Think carefully about your monthly budget, and how you can allocate more money to the things you really enjoy. You'll also do well in any sort of financial negotiation, and you'll be able to argue your case with ease. Favourable colours are peach and avocado. Lucky numbers are 38 and 24.
 
The next couple of weeks are great for talking to the special people in your life, but especially your partner. Try to make time for plenty of conversation so you both get the chance to talk about things that matter to you. Most of all, though, you need to communicate with one another so you can enhance and strengthen your relationship. Loving colours are velvet red and velvet black. Lucky numbers are 26 and 33.
 
Your thoughts will be very self-centred during the next two weeks. That's exactly the way it should be right now, although other people may not agree. So try to be tactful and listen to your friends and loved ones, even if you'd rather talk about yourself. It may help to keep a journal or diary so you can write down your thoughts as they come to you. Stabilising colours are tangerine and jade. Lucky numbers are 24 and 28.
 
Thoughts of the past start to fill your mind from today and will continue to occupy you until mid June. Enjoy this sentimental journey down memory lane by looking through lots of old keepsakes and treasures or by discussing past events with someone who shared them with you. You might also enjoy watching programmes about the past on television. Harmonious colours are dark red and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 18 and 3.
 
Pace yourself today or you'll take on too much work and then struggle to get it all done. This will wear you out and reinforce your current sense of having the world on your shoulders. The fact is that things look bleaker today than they really are, so try to remember that, or you'll feel extremely miserable and sorry for yourself. Expressive colours are tan and blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 41.
 
Try to get out and about today, especially if it means visiting places you've never been to before. You don't have to go on a major trek, either, because even trying out a new restaurant or shop will satisfy your desire for something new. On the other hand you'll be in seventh heaven if you can take the day off and have a mini adventure. Favourable colours are caramel and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 32 and 18.
 
Your thoughts and emotions are working in tandem today, making it easy to get on well with the people around you. It's great for taking part in discussions and negotiations because you'll make a lot of sense, as everyone in earshot will appreciate. It's also a good day for getting on with your work in your own time, especially if you've got to do lots of paperwork or filing. Positive colours are aubergine and ivy green. Lucky numbers are 33 and 49.
 
It's not a good day Libra, because you're feeling miserable and under the weather. Nothing seems to be going right, even if it's perfectly okay in practice, and you're feeling sorry for yourself. Try not to let yourself get sucked into believing in your current mood because things aren't nearly as bad as they seem and you'll soon feel much more positive again. Positive colours are turquoise and beige. Lucky numbers are 34 and 17.
 
A relationship hits a low point today, maybe because a partner is feeling gloomy or depressed, and their mood can't help but rub off on you. Or maybe there's an emotional gulf between the two of you, making you feel worried and lonely. Do your best not to let what are probably passing moods assume massive proportions, otherwise you'll end the day feeling utterly wretched. It may help to spend time alone on activities that always cheer you up or give you a strong sense of satisfaction. Fortunate colours are lavender and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
You have the happy knack of being able to say the right thing today, so don't let it go to waste. Have a chat with that tricky neighbour of yours or sweet-talk a touchy relative into being docile and friendly. Try to find time to catch up on your letter-writing and emailing, too, because you'll enjoy putting your thoughts into words. Beneficial colours are aquamarine and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 9 and 17.
 
It's a good day for putting your feelings into words, whether you're talking about something really important or merely expressing your opinion about last night's television programmes. However, you'll amaze yourself if you start talking about your feelings because you'll be really articulate and not afraid to speak from the heart. Dynamic colours are blackberry and gold. Lucky numbers are 33 and 62.
 
You have a strong need to be with other people today, but you don't want just any old person. Instead, you're hankering for people you can trust, and in whom you can confide if necessary. Your conversation may even be mutually beneficial, with both of you sharing secrets, safe in the knowledge that they won't go any further. Liberating colours are sable and lime. Lucky numbers are 14 and 27.
 
You're feeling downbeat and somewhat pessimistic today, which colours everything you do. You don't have as much energy as usual, you're imagining the worst and you're also rather sorry for yourself. Try to keep away from anyone who has a tendency to put you down or make you feel like an idiot because they'll only increase your current lack of confidence. Inspirational colours are pale pink and purple. Lucky numbers are 36 and 73.
 
Life is a little tricky with a certain person today. Maybe they've got their chin on the floor and you can't get them to give you even a glimmer of a smile, which is disheartening and depressing after a while. Or perhaps you're the one who's feeling fed up and, like Eeyore, full of doom and gloom. It won't help if there's a small rift in one of your relationships because you'll fret and worry about it, turning it from a minor blip into a major crisis. Relax! Stabilising colours are hazelnut and pink. Lucky numbers are 28 and 73.
 
If you only got as far as planning a journey yesterday, you're now in the mood to take it one step further and make some concrete arrangements. You'll feel so much better for having something exciting lined up. If you're passing a bookshop or newsagents at some point today, it will be hard to resist going in, and then it will be equally hard to resist buying something nice. Hey ho! Favourable colours are dusky pink and lavender. Lucky numbers are 9 and 23.
 
You're in a very chatty and lively mood today, so your idea of hell will be having to spend the day by yourself or in silence. You won't mind who you talk to, although you'll have the most fun when you're with friends, neighbours and other people you see on a regular basis. If you meet someone for the first time you could discover, much to your delight, that they're a kindred spirit. Lively colours are violet and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 38 and 72.
 
Roll up your sleeves and get on with some work today. Once again you're in an industrious mood but this Thursday you don't want to make any fanfare over it. Instead, you'd prefer to beaver away by yourself, without any interruptions from other people. At some point, a conversation with a boss or superior will show you in a very good light. Beneficial colours are silver and chocolate brown. Lucky numbers are 24 and 35.
 
It's a good day for taking charge of situations and making sure that you know what's going on, particularly in the financial areas of your life.

Fortunate colours are pale blue and lilac. Lucky numbers are 17 and 67.
 
Home is where your heart is today and you won't want to stray very far away from it. Maybe you could invite some of your nearest and dearest round for a meal that you cook yourself, giving you the opportunity to really spoil them. If you can't see someone in person you'll enjoy ringing them up for a chat to find out how they are, especially if you've been rather worried about them lately. Harmonious colours are tan and dark green. Lucky numbers are 30 and 38.
 
What a busy day! You're rushing around in several directions at once, but it will be good fun. Luckily, things will never get so hectic that you end up feeling fraught, so you'll manage to enjoy yourself and keep your temper. It's a good day for organizing a forthcoming social event because you've got the necessary energy and you'll also come up with some great ideas about where to go. Positive colours are mauve and platinum. Lucky numbers are 40 and 4.
 
You're in the mood to enjoy yourself today, so anything resembling hard work will come a long way down your list of priorities. However, other people may not share your views and will wonder why you aren't busily doing your bit. Try not to fall foul of a boss or superior because you aren't working hard enough. Far better to get the work out of the way and then have fun, because then you can enjoy yourself with a clear conscience. Auspicious colours are magenta and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 38 and 41.
 
Someone is awfully pleased with themselves today and it's probably you. You're perfectly justified in patting yourself on the back and feeling proud of what you've achieved. Leave it at that and don't be tempted to draw anyone's attention to your achievements by bragging or boasting about them. Right now it's better to retain a modest silence and let them discover your talents for themselves. Inspiring colours are blackberry and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 5 and 3.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself, preferably in the company of some of your favourite people.

If you've been waiting for the right moment to ask someone out, do it today while you're feeling relatively fearless and ready to take your chances. Fortunate colours are peach and pastel green. Lucky numbers are 67 and 25.
 
Fancy doing some shopping? You're in the mood to buy a few items for your home and garden, even if they're relatively modest. If you're going food shopping in your local supermarket everyone else had better watch out because you'll charge up and down those aisles as though you're rocket-powered. Well, you don't want to waste any time at the moment. Lively colours are bright pink and shell blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 67.
 
Friends are great company today because they'll make you think. They'll also fill you with enthusiasm about all sorts of things and one might even introduce you to a thought or hobby that you've never considered before. Speaking of hobbies, this is a brilliant day for getting all wrapped up in a favourite pastime, especially if it gets you out of the house and into the fresh air. Fortunate colours are caramel and coffee. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
Your thoughts turn to travel and weekend breaks today, especially if it will be a while before you can take off on holiday. Why not arrange something soon, so you've got something to look forward to? Ideally, you should arrange to visit a city or country that you've never been to before, and visiting a friend will also appeal. Maybe you could combine the two? Auspicious colours are gold and russet. Lucky numbers are 35 and 68.
 
You're in a compassionate and altruistic mood today, making you keen to help others less fortunate than yourself. If you feel like contributing to a charity you'll look for one that is slightly unconventional or which deals with an unglamorous topic. You might even feel so enthusiastic that you sign up as a volunteer helper. You could really surprise yourself! Lucky colours are grapefruit and coffee. Lucky numbers are 3 and 64.
 
Try not to take on too much work today, otherwise you'll make a rod for your own back and not be able to finish everything you started. Maybe you're being too ambitious about what you can do in a short space of time, or perhaps you've got something important to prove. If you do run out of time, try not to cut corners because that will lead to more work in the end. It will be better to leave something unfinished and tackle it again tomorrow than to do it in a tearing hurry and then realize that you haven't done it properly. Favourable colours are mustard yellow and dark red. Lucky numbers are 26 and 19.
 
This is a terrific day for working your way through any outstanding paperwork, such as doing some filing, paying bills or replying to letters. You'll take great satisfaction from being able to marshal your thoughts so well, and also from planning your time so you're at your most efficient and productive. Well done! Auspicious colours are terracotta and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 13 and 19.
 
Commonsense rules this Wednesday, making you keen to do things in the most organized, efficient and practical way you can possibly manage.

Fortunate colours are sable and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 29 and 30.
 
You have your head screwed on the right way when it comes to thinking about work and other important areas of your life. In fact, you're being very practical and efficient, and no one will be able to fool you.

Auspicious colours are peach and apple blossom. Lucky numbers are 8 and 77.
 
You're capable of some really constructive thinking today, so don't be afraid to put your brain to good use. It's a super day for making plans, especially if they concern travel, education or a good cause, because you'll be able to cover every angle and think things through carefully. You can also pick someone's brains in the comforting knowledge that they know what they're talking about. Beneficial colours are russet and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 32 and 62.
 
Keep track of your finances today, so you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you're on top of everything. You may even want to pay some bills a few days early rather than run the risk of forgetting all about them. It's also an excellent day for setting up any sort of system that will help your money matters to run more smoothly, such as a direct debit or standing order. Ideal colours are maroon and blonde. Lucky numbers are 39 and 37.
 
If you need to get someone organized, this is the day to do it. You'll sort things out without sounding bossy or patronizing, and you'll also get co-operation instead of resistance. It's a good day for having a serious chat with a child, perhaps because you've got to explain something and you want to make sure you do it properly and in a way that doesn't create confusion or fear. Sensitive colours are sable and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 4 and 26.
 
You're full of commonsense and thinking along very sensible lines today. There are no flies on you right now, and you're quite prepared to face unpleasant facts when necessary. It's a marvellous day for having a serious chat with a neighbour, close relative, child or friend, especially if you've got something important to say and you've been waiting for the right moment. Stable colours are dark gold and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 1 and 48.
 
This is a fantastic day for using your brain with precision and accuracy. For instance, it's great for filling in a complicated form or going through some complex paperwork because you'll find it easy to concentrate on what you're doing. It's especially good for paying attention to the sort of finicky details that you normally aren't interested in but which are right up your street this Wednesday. Auspicious colours are copper and purple. Lucky numbers are 31 and 31.
 
In complete contrast to yesterday, you have your head screwed on firmly today. Yet you won't be boringly sensible or drearily practical, so there's no danger of you having turned into a dry old stick overnight. It's a good day for keeping track of important details and processes, such as confirming a forthcoming appointment or filling in a form and then making a copy of it before sending it off. Advantageous colours are mixed tones and burnt sienna. Lucky numbers are 27 and 16.
 
This is a terrific day for catching up with any overdue correspondence. You don't want it hanging over you any longer and right now you're very skilled at putting your thoughts into words. If you need answers to important questions, this is a great opportunity to speak up. The whole problem could be solved in a surprisingly short amount of time. Liberating colours are ivory and magenta. Lucky numbers are 44 and 9.
 
Someone needs some advice today and you're just the person to give it to them. Wait to be asked, though! You'll be able to draw on your experiences of life, and you might also throw in some spiritual guidance for good measure. If you've got some spare time you'll enjoy immersing yourself in a thought-provoking book and then discussing it with someone who's on your wavelength. Fortunate colours are cobalt blue and avocado. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
This is a fantastic day for talking to friends and kindred spirits because there's such a strong understanding between you. If someone asks you for advice, you'll find the middle ground between being too doom-laden and being overly optimistic. You're in a very efficient and practical frame of mind, so swing into action if you've got to organize something important. If you can't do it today, you'll never manage it! Ideal colours are peacock blue and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 25 and 5.
 
You're in an idealistic mood today and you only want to see the best in other people. This is very typical Libran behaviour, because you aren't good at facing up to harsh reality at the best of times. Today, you're ready to believe that someone is a candidate for sainthood or that they're the best thing that's ever happened to you, regardless of whether it's true or not. Insightful colours are burnt orange and coffee. Lucky numbers are 37 and 71.
 
If you're a typical Aquarian you're often quite idealistic and today is no exception. You're wandering around on cloud nine, especially if you're thinking about a very special someone, and indulging in all sorts of deliciously romantic daydreams. Reality? You've no time for it right now, because it will intrude too much on your fantasies. Romantic colours are strawberry and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 9 and 14.
 
You're in a very idealistic mood today, making it almost impossible for you to view loved ones in their true colours. If they've got any faults you won't see them because you'll have blanked them out. This rosy vision of your nearest and dearest is fine if it doesn't last long but it will cause problems if it persists and you continue to brush any problems under the carpet. Beneficial colours are turquoise and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 44.
 
You're wearing rose-tinted glasses today, especially when you look at some of the special people in your life. Right now you only want to see their good points and you'll deliberately turn a blind eye to any faults that might be on show. If you can escape from the real world for a day with you-know-who you'll have a marvellously romantic and emotional time together. But do your best to come back to earth tomorrow. Propitious colours are khaki and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 24 and 39.
 
You have a very high opinion of someone today. In fact, you're really impressed with them and you'll probably sing their praises to anyone who'll listen. If you meet someone for the first time now, you'll be very impressed by them and this will never change throughout your relationship. But try not to idealize them into something they're not. Beneficial colours are pineapple and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 26 and 12.
 
It's a big change today after yesterday's combustible atmosphere and you're feeling more relaxed and understanding. You're even prepared to forgive someone for what you thought yesterday was a heinous crime, and ready to give them a second chance. However, let's hope that this person deserves your goodwill and is grateful to receive it. Positive colours are banana yellow and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 38 and 69.
 
You're full of understanding and compassion today, especially when dealing with people who are different from you in some way. You want to help them, and you couldn't give a hoot about the colour of their skin, the nature of their religion or the country they've come from. Right now you're very open to spiritual and religious insights, so let them flow freely. Communicative colours are silvery grey and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 28 and 67.
 
You're very keen to look on the bright side of things and to ignore anything unpleasant or worrying. That's fine, provided that you're ready to face up to life's difficulties again tomorrow. But it's not such good news if you persist in looking the other way whenever a problem presents itself, especially if it's connected with your work or health. It may be time to face a few facts, Capricorn. Stabilising colours are indigo and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.
 
You're very idealistic and impressionable today, and you want to see the best in everyone. You'll look straight past their faults, pretending they aren't there, and will concentrate on their good points instead. If a new relationship gets off the ground now it will always be characterized by an aura of romance and fantasy, and a slightly otherworldly quality. Ideal colours are dark green and cream. Lucky numbers are 30 and 51.
 
You're in a very romantic and sentimental state today. You're also feeling quite sensitive and vulnerable, so you won't want to be around anyone you find abrasive or aggressive. If you meet someone for the first time now you'll think they're wonderful and your relationship will always involve putting them on a pedestal. But don't be too idealistic about them. They are human, remember! Uplifting colours are peach and silver. Lucky numbers are 23 and 43.
 
You have stars in your eyes and you're in a really romantic mood today. Your idea of heaven is to be with that special person in your life, preferably doing something very nice. If you meet someone new or a relationship gets off the ground today, things will always be rather dreamy and otherworldly between you. It will be as though real life, with all its problems, never intrudes on your time together. Favourable colours are burgundy and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 18.
 
You have a very high opinion of a certain person today, believing that they can do no wrong. But how realistic are you being? It looks as though you're viewing the world through rose-coloured glasses, which is fine if it's only a temporary state but quite another matter if you're deliberately ignoring problems and pretending that they don't exist. Favourable colours are pale gold and olive. Lucky numbers are 2 and 26.
 
You're raring to go today, especially on domestic projects. You'll achieve a tremendous amount if you're allowed to proceed at your own pace and in your own time, but you'll soon get ratty if you suspect someone is breathing down your neck or trying to tell you what to do. You'll also feel irritated with people you know really well, so be prepared for a few fireworks. Fortunate colours are terracotta and opal. Lucky numbers are 34 and 52.
 
Your emotions have the upper hand, making you rather fiery and fervent. That's great if you're hoping for a passionate encounter with you-know-who, because you'll be really hot stuff. However, in non- sexual situations you could become somewhat tempestuous and irritable, especially if you suspect that things aren't going the way you want. Vibrant colours are blackberry and mango. Lucky numbers are 23 and 3.
 
Try hard not to let money or possessions come between you and a friend today, unless it's over something that has got to be sorted out before it goes any further. For instance, if someone owes you money and has consistently failed to pay it back, this is a good day for mentioning it to them and finding out what's going on. If necessary, you may have to be quite vehement. Inspirational colours are amber and ebony. Lucky numbers are 18 and 13.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on your relationships during the next two weeks, so stand by. If the cracks have been starting to show in a partnership, this could be when they turn into major fault lines that demand action. Can they be repaired or do they spell the end of the line? It may feel like a crisis but that doesn't mean it really is one, so don't over-react. Fortuitous colours are antique gold and dark green. Lucky numbers are 25 and 78.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a powerful impact on your health during the next two weeks. Maybe this is the spur you need to inspire you to take better care of yourself, such as improving your diet, getting more exercise or finally consulting the doctor about something that's worrying you. It will also be the end of a chapter connected with your work, but don't fret because this ending will lead on to a new beginning. Fortunate colours are navy and jade. Lucky numbers are 35 and 20.
 
Today's Full Moon will affect your love life significantly during the next two weeks. You might have to say goodbye to someone you care about, or you may realize some difficult truths about your relationship.

Although this won't be a very easy time, don't make it worse by over-reacting and turning every hitch into a major drama. Fortunate colours are ultramarine and chocolate brown. Lucky numbers are 38 and 68.
 
You have energy to burn today and it needs positive outlets, otherwise you'll be rather ratty and impatient. You want to work on activities that will show you in a good light, and you'll be annoyed if anyone objects to what you're doing or points out where you're going wrong. If you've been nursing a secret passion for someone, the frustration will really get to you this Monday. Positive colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 7 and 57.
 
You have a tremendous amount of nervous energy today and you need to find positive ways of expressing it, otherwise it could make you rather irritable and restless. Ideally, you should do something physical, such as going for a brisk walk, cleaning the house while working up a sweat or getting your money's worth out of the gym. Don't take out your frustrations on people who don't deserve them. Favourable colours are pastel pink and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 45.
 
Emotional tension is in the air today, making it a fraught but exciting day. The fur could really fly between you and someone you fancy, especially if you aren't yet having a sexual relationship with them. Try to channel all this energy into positive directions, such as doing something creative or transforming. It will also help to keep active. Ideal colours are caramel and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 18 and 65.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a dramatic impact on your life during the next two weeks. That's because it's urging you to make some far- reaching changes to your personal life.

By doing this you'll create the space for something new to enter your life. Inspirational colours are burgundy and cream. Lucky numbers are 9 and 56.
 
You're under a lot of pressure today, which makes you rather tetchy and tense. Even so, you should try to channel your nervous energy in constructive directions because then you'll achieve a tremendous amount. If you'll be seeing someone you fancy from afar, there will be plenty of sparks flying between you. But what do they mean? Fortunate colours are auburn and avocado. Lucky numbers are 19 and 46.
 
You're very feisty and energetic and there's a lot you want to achieve. You'll get rather impatient if anyone stands in your way. A close emotional relationship will either be sexy and exciting beyond belief, or bad-tempered and tetchy. If you're in a grumpy mood, try to work out why - and what would improve matters. One thing that's bound to help is physical exercise, because it will burn off any excess nervous energy. Divine colours are white and violet. Lucky numbers are 28 and 73.
 
Someone is confused and muddled today, making it very difficult to talk chat for long without becoming equally bemused. Avoid making decisions or researching important information, because there's a strong possibility of getting crossed wires, or talking at cross purposes. A memory may also be distorted now, leading to mix-ups or bewilderment. Empowering colours are navy and gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 51.
 
Be very careful when handling financial matters today because not everything is as straightforward as it seems. For instance, someone may tell you about a fail-safe way of making money but neglect to mention all the reasons why it's totally illegal. There could also be mistakes if you're spending money, such as being short-changed or overcharged. So watch out! Beneficial colours are sunshine yellow and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 45.
 
Beware wishful thinking because it will cloud your thoughts and lead to confusion. However, that's much easier said than done, because today you're showing distinct tendencies towards living in a rosy world of your own and ignoring any hard facts that are under your nose. Take care that you don't allow someone to dupe you simply because you aren't paying attention to what they're saying or doing. Ideal colours are mulberry and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 1 and 34.
 
Keep a firm grip on your money today to avoid anyone else getting their mitts on it. If you're out in public you should keep your wallet or bag clamped to your side, just in case it goes walkabout. You should also make sure you check any bills and invoices that you're given, in case they contain a mistake. It's a day when errors and deceptions are highly likely. Uplifting colours are turquoise and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 6 and 54.
 
Be careful today Leo, because you'll have to cope with crossed wires and mixed messages today. Someone may not mean to confuse you but they'll still manage to get their wires crossed or give you completely the wrong information. You should try to avoid signing on any dotted lines or reaching verbal agreements today in case you've overlooked an important fact or it's been withheld from you. Auspicious colours are navy and lilac. Lucky numbers are 25 and 4.
 
The question of who and what you should believe is never far away today. Someone could easily mislead you, although it's a moot point whether they do this intentionally or not. Or there could be a communication glitch that means no one knows what's going on. Be very careful when handling money because there could be lots of silly mistakes, and if you're really unlucky there might also be some double- dealing too. Liberating colours are persimmon and jet black. Lucky numbers are 8 and 32.
 
The sad fact is that a certain person isn't making much sense right now. They seem to be talking nonsense, or maybe they've got the wrong end of the stick but are hanging on to it for grim death and refuse to let you correct them. Mind you, there's also the possibility that you're the one who has got themselves in a muddle but doesn't realize it. Scary! Favourable colours are burgundy and magenta. Lucky numbers are 11 and 40.
 
It's important to be discriminating about what you say and believe today. That's because communications are rather strange, with people saying or doing odd things and plenty of scope for crossed wires. Be very careful if you're attending to important details because for some reason your brain may switch off at the vital moment, leaving you prone to making mistakes or losing track of what you're doing. Try to double-check anything important tomorrow when your brain is back in gear. Favourable colours are lavender and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 7 and 67.
 
Don't believe everything you see today and your memory could be playing tricks on you, too. You might remember things in a distorted or false way, through no fault of your own. You may also be reading too much into the situations that are going on around you, making it hard for you to know what's really happening. Try not to make any big decisions today because you simply aren't thinking straight. Liberating colours are silver and azure. Lucky numbers are 7 and 59.
 
Keep a pinch of salt handy today because not everything you hear will be the gospel truth. Someone might have manipulated the facts to make them sound more acceptable, or they may have got carried away and forgotten to tell you something rather vital. Try to keep misunderstandings to a minimum by being as straightforward and honest as possible, and by not simply assuming that people know what you're talking about and therefore not bothering to explain properly. Comforting colours are sky blue and lavender. Lucky numbers are 28 and 23.
 
Don't take any risks when handling your finances today, because there are strange things going on. Someone may not be as straightforward and honest as usual, or can't explain themselves properly, which leads to misunderstandings and false assumptions. If you're spending money, make sure you're charged the right price and given the correct change. And don't let your wallet or purse out of your sight, in case you mislay it or someone nabs it. Beneficial colours are chocolate and apricot. Lucky numbers are 34 and 20.
 
Things are not always what they seem today, so be careful. Someone might appear to be completely honest but turn out later to have been fooling you in some way. Or a situation may seem quite clear-cut right now but forthcoming events will reveal that things are very different under the surface. So be wary about who and what you believe, and don't let anyone push you into making important decisions today because they may not be in your best interests. Beneficial colours are butterscotch and crimson. Lucky numbers are 1 and 17.
 
Look after yourself today because you don't have as much energy and self-confidence as usual. In fact, your spirits may be trailing around your ankles, making you feel wretched and listless. You're also in rather a pessimistic mood, which certainly won't help you cheer up, and you may be feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities or other people's problems. The fact is that you've got things out of proportion but you'll feel better about them soon. Fortunate colours are violet and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 36 and 15.
 
It's a rather low-key day with a few disappointments to cope with along the way. If you were looking forward to a social event, such as meeting up with friends, it may fail to live up to your expectations. It might even be delayed or postponed through no fault of your own. There could also be problems about how much something is going to cost, forcing you to scale down your plans to make them more affordable. Expressive colours are plum and taupe. Lucky numbers are 26 and 24.
 
It's a frustrating and rather disappointing day because you have to cope with delays and setbacks to your plans. A travel arrangement may have to be postponed or there could be a hitch about something connected with education. You're also feeling subdued and tired, and you're longing to spend some time on your own although this may not be possible. Don't worry, this difficult mood will soon blow over. Expressive colours are scarlet and copper. Lucky numbers are 28 and 66.
 
This is a great day for fixing things that have gone wrong. If there have been ructions in your relationship with a certain person this is when you can sort things out and get them back on track. If an appliance or gadget is going on the blink, this is your cue to either get it mended or chuck it out and replace it. You may also find time to tidy up your immediate surroundings or take all those bottles and papers to your nearest recycling centre. How virtuous you'll feel when it's all done! Beneficial colours are claret and white. Lucky numbers are 38 and 59.
 
Someone is being very informative and helpful, especially if you want them to explain something that you don't understand, so listen carefully to what they tell you. This is also a great day for making some travel plans, perhaps by arranging to visit a friend you haven't seen in a while or by discussing where you should take your next holiday. Prosperous colours are charcoal and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 3 and 24.
 
There simply aren't enough hours in the day today for you to do everything that's on your list, so concentrate on the priorities. Don't feel guilty about what's been left out and start to worry about it. This isn't an easy day because you're feeling pressured and anxious, so don't expect too much from yourself. There's less energy than usual, which doesn't help. Fortunate colours are scarlet and ebony. Lucky numbers are 20 and 2.
 
A little give and take goes a long way this Saturday, so try to be flexible and malleable when dealing with others. It will also pay to ask people what they think rather than to make sweeping assumptions on their behalf, because you could be in for a surprise. A child may have some interesting information for you, or they could make a statement that really sets you thinking. Expansive colours are auburn and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 34 and 60.
 
Friends help to keep you entertained today by giving you plenty to think about and you could have a wide-ranging discussion that really tests your brain cells. Friends will also provoke deep emotions in you, so don't be surprised if you feel very powerfully about someone you spend time with now. If you make plans for something this Saturday, try not to get completely obsessed by them. Fortunate colours are dark purple and coffee. Lucky numbers are 18 and 45.
 
You seem to be operating at a slower pace than normal today, which is frustrating. Maybe you're feeling tired and listless, or you hit a series of snags that you've got to overcome. You might also feel overwhelmed by duties and obligations, particularly if they're connected with your job or with neighbourhood activities. Perhaps you need to delegate? Advantageous colours are pistachio and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 51 and 45.
 
It's a great day for fixing anything that needs attention now. That might be a dripping tap, a sick child, an unpaid bill or a miffed partner. However, you'll do particularly well if you've got to sort out something connected with official or joint finances or red tape. You might be asked to help someone deal with a bureaucratic problem, especially if they're elderly. Emotional colours are almond and fawn. Lucky numbers are 26 and 71.
 
Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself. Healing colours are aqua and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 8 and 45.
 
Take care because you're feeling lonely and vulnerable. It seems as though someone is out to get you, or perhaps you're separated from the people you love and you don't like it. Try not to mope for too long because there are important things that need your attention. Speaking of which, if you've got to do something that you're dreading, you'll feel much better if you can get it out of the way quickly. If you leave it, the very thought of it will drain your energy. Calming colours are ultramarine and bronze. Lucky numbers are 6 and 7.
 
If a friend has been bugging you recently, you are likely to have a few sharp words with them today. However, least said soonest mended, so don't labour the point or turn them against you. Besides, you've got better things to do with your time now, such as take part in a big gathering of likeminded people or have a long chat with one special person. Beneficial colours are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 19 and 39.
 
The astrological emphasis starts to switch to your relationships today, making the next four weeks the perfect opportunity to concentrate on partnerships and other associations. It's a great chance to take part in some teamwork, even if this isn't your usual style. It's also a marvellous time to make an emotional commitment to someone, such as moving in with them. Auspicious colours are gunmetal grey and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 21 and 67.
 
Your mind is razor sharp today, making it easy to reach decisions and put your thoughts into words. Make the most of this articulate and brainy phase, especially if that means taking part in a discussion or putting your ideas down on paper. If you've got to defend your opinions you'll manage to do so without sounding aggressive or dictatorial. Favourable colours are silver and champagne. Lucky numbers are 33 and 2.
 
You'll have a real thirst for adventure during the next four weeks, and the burning question is how you're going to satisfy it. Maybe you fancy taking off on a journey, whether it's through a holiday, a day break or a long weekend. Or perhaps you've got to stay put but you're going to send your brain on its travels instead by increasing your knowledge. Opportunities will never be far away, either, so try to grab them whenever you spot them. Opportunistic colours are dark brown and peach. Lucky numbers are 6 and 44.
 
During the next four weeks you'll benefit from spending time on your plans and dreams for the future. Instead of always thinking of these as things that might happen one day if you're lucky, alter your attitude and start thinking of them as things that will definitely happen. And maybe you could start the ball rolling by turning a modest wish into reality? Favourable colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 20 and 59.
 
Your love life will blossom during the next four weeks, whether that means falling in love with someone new, enjoying a happy phase in an existing relationship or simply enjoying the company of some of your favourite people. There could be good news about a child or a forthcoming celebration, too, which will lift your spirits. Adventurous colours are charcoal and treacle. Lucky numbers are 36 and 49.
 
Concentrate on your long-term ambitions and goals during the next four weeks, especially if these will advance your career or enhance your reputation. This is your chance to be in the limelight and get yourself noticed, so don't be modest about showing off your talents and abilities. Your self-confidence will also get a boost, which could come in handy. Stabilising colours are chocolate and coffee. Lucky numbers are 21 and 4.
 
You've been rather retiring and unassuming at times during the past few weeks but you start to emerge from your shell today. In fact, there'll be no stopping you between now and mid June, especially if you're hoping to blaze a trail or act on your own initiative. This will also be a great time to bolster your self-confidence with activities that make you feel good. Prosperous colours are apricot and taupe. Lucky numbers are 38 and 61.
 
Your mind is working well this Friday so give it plenty of exercise. You could get involved in an intellectual discussion that forces you to think things through for yourself, or you might have to do some serious thinking about a forthcoming travel plan. If you're often wary of saying what you think you'll feel much braver about speaking up today, which is good news if you want to fight your corner or express your point of view. Favourable colours are terracotta and banana yellow. Lucky numbers are 34 and 39.
 
You're in a very spirited frame of mind today, making it easy for you to captivate people and make the conversation sparkle. This is just what you want if you're hoping to dazzle a certain someone or you want to impress a whole crowd of people. If you get drawn into a discussion or negotiation you'll have no problems in sticking up for yourself. Positive colours are pale pink and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 11 and 60.
 
You're quick off the mark today, not only physically but mentally too. There are no flies on you, Capricorn, and anyone who tries to get the better of you in a discussion will soon have to retire to lick their wounds. It's not that you'll be rude or aggressive, simply that right now you can run rings around other people and you've got a clever answer to virtually anything. Exuberant colours are vermilion and avocado. Lucky numbers are 4 and 13.
 
You are likely to get involved in a spirited discussion this Friday, in which you explain your beliefs and values to other people. Not only will this help you to clarify what you think, it will also give others a useful insight into what really matters to you. On a more mundane note, this is a good day to return something faulty to a shop because you'll be able to put your case well. Fortunate colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 12 and 63.
 
There are days when you feel you can't say or do anything right, but happily this isn't one of them. In fact, it's a wonderful day in which everything goes well and it's remarkably easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around. Not that you want to spend your time with just any old person. You'd much rather get together with some close friends or that special someone in your life. Auspicious colours are dark gold and purple. Lucky numbers are 8 and 77.
 
Try to get out and about today because it will do you good to have a change of scene. Even you, a home-loving Cancerian, can start to feel stale and bored if you're stuck in one place for too long, so try to vary your surroundings as much as possible today. Social events will go well, too, and you'll enjoy talking to people who make you think. Propitious colours are sage green and beige. Lucky numbers are 1 and 78.
 
Surround yourself with people you love today. It's a nostalgic and emotional time, so seek the company of people who make you feel safe, or with whom you've shared lots of nice experiences in the past. If you'd rather get together with one special person, make the occasion as memorable as possible. Comforting colours are blueberry and sage. Lucky numbers are 2 and 8.
 
This is a good day for concentrating on activities that boost your self-esteem and sense of satisfaction. If you're at work you'll want to do the very best job you can manage, partly for your own sense of pride and partly because it's important for you that bosses and superiors know what you're capable of. There should be good news about a pay rise, perk or a new job that's in the pipeline. Opportunistic colours are amber and aqua. Lucky numbers are 38 and 36.
 
Do you believe in good luck? Well you should, because you're surrounded by it today. Grab every opportunity that comes along because you never know when you'll get another chance, especially if travel or education is involved. It's also a good day for having a modest gamble, provided that you can afford to lose your stake if your luck suddenly runs out. Ideal colours are iridescent green and apricot. Lucky numbers are 1 and 65.
 
Life hasn't exactly been plain sailing recently but you're navigating your way through calmer waters again this Thursday. In fact, you're feeling pretty sunny-tempered and relaxed, and may even wonder what all the fuss was about during the past few days. It's a great excuse to go out on the town, or to visit your favourite restaurant for a relaxing meal. Fortunate colours are moonlight blue and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 17 and 74.
 
You value your privacy today, especially if you can share it with a very special person. If you're supposed to be going out with lots of people you might be tempted to make your excuses, simply because you can't face all that hubbub and noise. Don't be surprised if someone confides in you, but make sure you can keep their secrets and treat them with the respect they deserve. Ideal colours are avocado and gold. Lucky numbers are 30 and 38.
 
If you're at work you'll be keen to do a good job, and your self-esteem will be strongly affected by the progress you think you've made. If it's a satisfying and productive day, you'll feel proud and happy. But if you don't seem to make much headway, you'll feel discouraged. However, if this happens you shouldn't give up because you can always make amends and do better. Opportune colours are amber and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 40 and 24.
 
This looks like being one of the nicest days in the whole of May, so enjoy it. You're feeling sociable, outgoing and friendly, and all you really want to do is have a good time. Get together with people who always make you laugh, especially if they happen to be some of your favourites as well, and give yourself a treat. It's also a super day for making exciting travel plans, such as arranging a forthcoming holiday or weekend break. Harmonious colours are beige and parchment. Lucky numbers are 25 and 53.
 
Happily, the atmosphere starts to lighten today, leading to a much more comfortable time. You'll also find it easy to get on well with other people, which will come as a big relief. You may even be able to make amends for what happened yesterday and reach some sort of agreement at long last. If you're going to a social event you'll have a really good time. Fortuitous colours are peach and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 23.
 
Channel all your frustrations from yesterday into your work today. It's the most constructive way to get things out of your system while achieving something worthwhile at the same time. You'll also get great satisfaction from doing things to the best of your ability, regardless of whether other people are watching or you're working on your own. Having said that, any praise will go down well. Auspicious colours are tangerine and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 21 and 14.
 
You long to be surrounded by familiar faces and places today, so you'll really feel out of your depth if you're somewhere strange even if you'd usually revel in such a situation. Your idea of heaven right now is to be with family or dear friends, or with one special person, so you can relax and not have to worry about putting on a good show or being entertaining company. Empowering colours are champagne and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 29 and 52.
 
Watch out if you're going shopping, because you'll be tempted to splash out on impulse buys. This doesn't matter so much if you're feeling flush, but it could cause problems if you're supposed to be counting every penny. Whatever the state of your finances, you may buy items you don't need and possibly even won't like when you look at them again tomorrow. Beneficial colours are lavender and claret. Lucky numbers are 20 and 31.
 
Love could catch you by surprise today. You might be strongly attracted to someone who isn't your usual type at all but who makes your knees go weak all the same, or you could get caught up in an illicit relationship that's exciting because it's got to be kept a secret. If you're already involved with someone they'll need plenty of freedom this Wednesday and won't appreciate feeling emotionally tied down. You need to let them off the leash for a short while! Romantic colours are avocado and silver. Lucky numbers are 27 and 21.
 
Forget about following convention and saying what's expected of you today. Instead, have the guts to speak from the heart and say what you think, even if that means sounding unconventional or weird. So what? Let people think what they like about you. Besides, you could be pleasantly surprised when you discover that you've got some kindred spirits who agree with every word you say. Fortuitous colours are lemon and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 17 and 35.
 
You've got some great ideas today. The question is whether you dare to put them into action. If you're hesitant about this it's because you suspect that your plans and opinions are too off-beat or unconventional, but are you sure that's true? Discussing them with people you trust could reveal a very different picture and make you realize that you've got your finger on the pulse. Have the courage of your convictions! Auspicious colours are avocado and primrose. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
 
Don't be afraid to voice your opinions today, even if you suspect that they aren't what everyone is expecting to hear. It's important to speak your mind, and there's no need to worry about treading on anyone's toes or sounding outrageous because that isn't very likely at all. If you're talking to someone, your conversation may take an unconventional turn that you weren't expecting. Fortunate colours are ivory and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 31 and 73.
 
There's a clash today between the past and the present. Someone wants to dwell nostalgically on the good old days but someone else is determined to forget all that and only concentrate on the here and now. The trouble is that neither side will want to concede to the other person's point of view, leading to bad feelings and upsets. If you are one of these people, try not to be too entrenched in your own opinions. Inspirational colours are chocolate and honey. Lucky numbers are 2 and 68.
 
Try as you might, you won't be able to convince a certain person to see things from your point of view this Wednesday. They're far too busy letting you know that they're an individual in their own right and they won't be tied down by you. The more you push them, the more they'll rebel, so try not to incite them into further displays of outrageousness. Ideal colours are smoky quartz and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 9 and 2.
 
Matters of the heart take an unexpected turn today. You might be strongly attracted to someone you've never looked at twice until now, or you could fall for someone who's much older or younger than you. If you're already involved in a relationship, either you or your partner will want to make it more exciting and spontaneous. Is this a suggestion that will go down well? Romantic colours are grape and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 22 and 76.
 
People are a law unto themselves today, being contrary and unpredictable, and all you can do is let them get on with it. You might also see a surprising side to someone you thought you knew well, which just goes to show that we are all multi-faceted. You're also revealing new character traits to everyone today, even if you aren't aware of it. Favourable colours are lapis lazuli and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 36 and 71.
 
Loved ones are hard to handle today because they refuse to do what you ask. It's a very trying experience but there doesn't seem to be much you can do about it. You might also see a new side to a certain person now, perhaps when they talk abut something that's very important to them which you knew nothing about until now. Fortunate colours are gold and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 26 and 44.
 
Is a relationship getting dull and predictable? If so, it's time to inject some spontaneity into it, preferably by doing things on the spur of the moment and taking a few risks. For instance, if you always spend Wednesday nights at home, maybe you should go out for a meal for a change. There could also be a surprise in store when you realize you're attracted to someone who's totally different from your usual type. Beneficial colours are taupe and azure. Lucky numbers are 8 and 54.
 
Watch out for a repeat performance of the sort of thing that happened on Sunday, with someone wanting to prove a point and show what a free spirit they can be. Today, they could get involved with someone who's in complete contrast to their own personality or who everyone decides is wildly unsuitable as a prospective partner. The more anyone protests about this, the more determined this person will be to follow their heart. So keep quiet! Expressive colours are peacock blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 35 and 11.
 
You're in the mood to give yourself a lovely treat, especially if you're still recovering from yesterday's miseries. You might decide to splash out on some new cosmetics or other beauty products, especially if they smell good or are made with mostly natural ingredients. You could also be easily persuaded to go out for a slap-up meal, and may even be the first one to suggest it. Expressive colours are beige and lavender. Lucky numbers are 4 and 31.
 
You're in a really great mood and you want everyone to share in it. This means getting together with friends or loved ones, and probably shoving all your worries and concerns to the back of your mind for the time being. It will also involve spending money, and possibly even spending more than you can comfortably afford. Not that you'll care about such things at the moment! Fortunate colours are auburn and tan. Lucky numbers are 24 and 48.
 
This is a wonderful day for being with loved ones, so do yourself a favour and spend as much time with them as possible. You don't have to do anything very special together, either, although you'll certainly enjoy going out for a meal or cooking something fancy at home. If you're looking for things to brighten up your home, you can track down some great deals today Pisces, but don't expect them to be at bargain prices.... Auspicious colours are green and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 4 and 14.
 
This is one of the best days, so enjoy yourself. It isn't a day for work or discipline, so you'll struggle if that's what's expected of you. Mix with people who make you laugh or encourage you to see the world from a different angle. And some travel won't go amiss, either. Uplifting colours are mango and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 19 and 60.
 
The past couple of days have been rather hard-going so isn't it about time you gave yourself a bit of a rest? This is the perfect day for relaxing in familiar surroundings, preferably doing as little as possible. Well, you might manage to raise the odd glass to your lips and also to eat some delicious food, but you'll run out of energy at the thought of having to do anything too energetic or strenuous. This is a day for enjoying yourself! Soothing colours are azure and champagne. Lucky numbers are 8 and 54.
 
You aren't in the mood for work today, which is a problem if you have to keep your nose to the grindstone. All the same, you'll do your best to ensure that even work is good fun, rather than one step up from slave labour, which may mean keeping your workmates amused and generally having a good laugh. Do your best to get all the important work out of the way to avoid getting ticked off, and then relax by enjoying yourself at every opportunity. Energising colours are bright red and ebony. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
The past couple of days have been difficult but things improve dramatically today. In fact, you're feeling happier and more cheerful than you've been for some time and it makes an astonishing difference to the way you're viewing the world. Ideally, you should get together with some of your favourite people and do something nice with them. Positive colours are turquoise and dark red. Lucky numbers are 14 and 62.
 
You're in a deliciously sociable and warm-hearted mood today, and everyone you encounter will feel all the better for having spoken to you. This is very good news if you're going out with someone special because you'll soon have them eating out of your hand. Equally, this is the perfect day to chat up someone you fancy because they'll find it hard to resist you. Ideal colours are dark gold and peach. Lucky numbers are 29 and 69.
 
Yesterday was no picnic so today you're desperate to enjoy yourself and forget all about it. It's a great day for being with someone special, particularly if you can have a really good time together. Maybe you could go out for a meal or a drink, or perhaps you're interested in more private pursuits together. The only snag is the money all this could cost you. You won't mind at the time but you might wince about it later on. Fortunate colours are spring green and umber. Lucky numbers are 13 and 62.
 
This is a day for enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance. It shouldn't be difficult because you'll engineer as many chances as possible! Friends and close relatives are especially good company right now. Ideally, you should forget all about work and responsibilities, and do something light-hearted and entertaining instead. If that isn't possible, arrange to do something nice when all the chores are out of the way. Ideal colours are jade and champagne. Lucky numbers are 8 and 30.
 
This Tuesday promises to be one of the highlights of the entire month, so try to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible. You certainly don't want to do anything boring or responsible because you'd much rather forget about duty and have some fun instead. It's a super day for mixing with people who stimulate your brain or who always make you laugh. There could also be the prospect of some enjoyable travel to look forward to. Expansive colours are silver and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 21 and 16.
 
You're in a fantastic mood today and you want it to last as long as possible. That means having fun and keeping well away from anything that looks like hard slog. Well, that's great if you won't get into trouble but it's not such good news if you're supposed to be doing something responsible or important because your heart won't be in it. If you're going shopping you'll be very drawn to expensive status symbols and other luxuries. Favourable colours are mandarin and sable. Lucky numbers are 37 and 66.
 
You've got that Monday morning feeling. The trouble is you've got too much on your plate and don't know how you're going to cope. It rankles if certain people appear to be lazing around with their feet up while you slog yourself half to death. Throwing a tantrum is one option but it will only use up valuable energy and may get you labelled as a prima donna. It may be better to grit your teeth and just get on with it. Advantageous colours are olive and platinum. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
Tempers start to rise today, leading to bad feeling and raised voices. Perhaps someone is being too dictatorial, or is determined to show who's boss. Let's hope you aren't the one who's throwing any weight around because it won't make you very popular. Mind your Ps and Qs when you're out in public because you could easily lose your temper when everyone is watching. Passionate colours are orange and green. Lucky numbers are 36 and 33.
 
If you want to keep something a secret, don't breathe a word about it to a living soul. If you do confide in someone, your secret will have a strange way of becoming public knowledge. And if you're currently trying to keep something under wraps, it may be revealed now in all its embarrassing glory. If this happens you'll have to exercise some damage limitation. Diplomatic colours are almond and onyx. Lucky numbers are 4 and 78.
 
Money has a nasty habit of coming between you and loved ones today, especially if you object to the way someone is spending their cash. Or is the boot on the other foot, with someone full of advice about what you should and shouldn't be spending your money on? Possessiveness could also enter the equation at some point, which will lead to unpleasant scenes and a lot of shouting. You may be feeling insecure about someone's feelings for you but try not to make them feel hemmed in or trapped by your emotional demands. Harmonious colours are turquoise and caramel. Lucky numbers are 24 and 47.
 
Lots of tensions are coming to the surface, so expect some rip- roaring rows or sulky disagreements. These will be especially difficult if you feel you've got to be on your best behaviour and can't say what you're really thinking. Maybe it would be impolite to lose your temper, so you've got to button your lip. But that doesn't make it any easier to deal with them, does it? Fortuitous colours are orange and silver. Lucky numbers are 40 and 25.
 
Take care when you're with loved ones because the atmosphere will be rather combustible and short-tempered. If one of you wants to persuade the other to do things in a certain way there's no need to be bossy, even if one of you is feeling aggrieved about a past event and wants to get their own back. Be honest with yourself about how you're feeling, because that will help you to keep on top of your moods. Beneficial colours are orange blossom and bondi blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 45.
 
It's another day when finances are a source of friction between you and loved ones. Do your best to handle this with good humour and tact, rather than seeing it as an opportunity to dredge up old scores. You have a combustible temper, so let it flare up and then let it die down just as quickly. Once that's out of the way you can sort out the problem and put it behind you. Calming colours are passionfruit and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 5 and 3.
 
Stand by for a bad-tempered and difficult day. It's difficult to keep other people sweet and you aren't exactly easy company yourself. What's wrong with everyone? Use the energy of Mars in your sign to do something about it. If one person's foul mood has rubbed off on everyone else, you've simply got to wait for this combustible phase to pass. Diplomatic colours are taupe and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 6 and 30.
 
The emotional temperature is steadily climbing, leading to storms and thundery outbursts. What's the cause of all these tempests? Are you over-emotional and overwrought, in a state and ready to snap over the smallest little thing? If so, it's highly likely that you're feeling jealous and caught up in a situation that you can't control. But sulking or yelling won't make things better. Beneficial colours are milk coffee and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 3 and 5.
 
There's a lot of hidden tension in the air, especially when dealing with loved ones. You might love them but right now you want to scream at them, especially if you're convinced that you know best about the way they should be behaving. It won't help if you're feeling jealous or possessive about someone, and annoyed that they're spending more time with their friends than they are with you. The trouble is that nagging or shouting at them won't make you very popular with them. Beneficial colours are maroon and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 16 and 28.
 
Take several deep breaths before losing your temper with anyone today. That's because it's another day when you're feeling rather raw and edgy, and you're showing a tendency to get the hump or be offended over very minor matters. Problems connected with the family, a domestic issue or a house move won't help, but try not to tie yourself up in knots about it all. Fortunate colours are mother of pearl and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 30 and 65.
 
It's another day where people are argumentative and crotchety and you're probably just as bad! It won't take much for someone to get on your nerves and irritate you, because you don't have nearly as much tolerance as usual. Nevertheless, try not to turn it into one of those days when you're endlessly bickering with whoever happens to be around. That will be exhausting! Beneficial colours are terracotta and silver. Lucky numbers are 32 and 67.
 
Be careful when handing money matters today and don't rush in where angels fear to tread. Why are you in such a hurry about all this? The more hasty you are, the more likely it is that you'll make a mistake and you'll kick yourself later on. Be especially careful if you're determined to prove a point, because being headstrong and wilful could turn out very expensive. Advantageous colours are cobalt blue and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 4 and 41.
 
A certain person is determined to go their own way today, and to hell with the consequences. They're so keen to express their independence and remind everyone that they're a free spirit that they might easily go over the top and end up being a lot more outrageous or bloody-minded than they'd intended. If you want to prove a point, try not to get so steamed up that you're willing to risk almost anything as a result. Fortunate colours are peach and coffee. Lucky numbers are 21 and 68.
 
Beware anyone who wants to drive the point home today because others won't know where to draw the line. Someone is determined to be noticed, even if they have to make a mighty song and dance in the process. Be careful when handling financial matters because a close partner may react very badly to whatever you suggest. It might be best if you suspend all discussions for the time being until everyone is in a more co-operative mood. Diplomatic colours are amethyst and fawn. Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
 
Give a certain person plenty of space and freedom today, because the last thing they want is to feel hampered, hemmed in, or as though they're your personal property. It may not be easy to do this, but it's the only answer unless you want to have a rebellion on your hands. The more you try to control this person's behaviour, the more determined they'll be to go their own way. Fortunate colours are hyacinth and chocolate brown. Lucky numbers are 13 and 10.
 
What's got into you? Slow down and take it easy with your demands. You want to do things your way or not at all, but if anyone objects, try not to ignore their protests and carry on as though nothing had happened. Be careful, such a strong-willed attitude could make you very unpopular. Isn't there any room for compromise? Healing colours are pink carnation and cream. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
You're determined to go your own sweet way... and blow the consequences. That's how it seems to everyone else, anyway, even if you have a different perspective on the situation. There may be very good reasons why you aren't prepared to toe the line, but unless you're careful, you may simply appear to be wilful and subversive. Maybe you should explain your point of view? Fortunate colours are maroon and magenta. Lucky numbers are 12 and 7.
 
A certain someone is a law unto themselves today and there's nothing you can do about it except let them get on with it. Trying to stop them or raising objections will simply make them even more determined to do their own thing, so you may as well save your breath. If you're tempted to rebel against an authority figure or fly in the face of convention, try to do it in ways that will cause the fewest ructions and the least amount of trouble. Advantageous colours are charcoal and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 7 and 67.
 
If you are determined to do exactly what you want today, this could make you very unpopular, especially if you want to draw a lot of attention to yourself by being wildly unconventional or controversial. Watch out because you may also be slightly accident-prone. If you're driving, stick to the speed limit and don't be tempted to try any clever moves in case they don't work out the way you wanted. Favourable colours are tan and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 13 and 43.
 
A friend or acquaintance is a law unto themselves today, and there isn't a thing you can do about it. In fact, the more you try to make them toe the line or behave in the way that's expected of them, the more likely they are to do the complete opposite of what you want. You may even decide that they're deliberately being provocative and unhelpful. Soothing colours are apricot and ivory. Lucky numbers are 17 and 52.
 
A loved one wants to be a free spirit so them get on with it. Trying to curb this need for freedom and desire for independence will simply set them against you. Besides, don't you understand how they're feeling? Maybe you're secretly feeling the same and long to do something daring and adventurous? Well, what's stopping you? Auspicious colours are treacle and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 34 and 52.
 
A clash between someone's upbringing and their current behaviour shows the more restrictive and conventional their background is, the more eager they'll be to rebel in some way and prove their independence. This could lead to a showdown or a major display of temperament unless everyone is on their best behaviour. But that isn't very likely! Advantageous colours are peach and jade. Lucky numbers are 12 and 49.
 
Someone is feeling daredevilish and naughty today, ready to take all sorts of risks that will probably make your hair stand on end. They may also be keen to prove a point, and will be so determined to do this that they won't really care what happens as a result. Take care if you start to feel agitated or restless, because that might make you careless, leaving you accident-prone. Pay attention to what you're doing, especially if you're driving or handling hot or sharp objects. Dynamic colours are red and silver. Lucky numbers are 38 and 41.
 
You're eager to come out of your shell today and do something sociable. You aren't keen on straying too far from home, nor on talking to strangers, so could have fun if you're taking part in a local activity with some of your neighbours. You'll also enjoy being around some of your close relatives or people that you see almost day in, day out. Inspiring colours are hazel and lime. Lucky numbers are 29 and 69.
 
Try not to be defensive and argumentative, even if you feel that certain people are trying to get at you. Most of the problem may exist in your mind rather than in what's actually taking place, and it will be very easy to allow yourself to get worked up about nothing very much at all. This will be especially likely if someone reopens one of your old wounds. Keep calm! Liberating colours are silver and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
 
Someone's got a sharp tongue and a short temper today, making for difficulties between you. They seem very wound up about something, but is it fair to take it all out on you? A bee is buzzing in their bonnet which makes it almost impossible to talk about anything else. Ask what's going on and what's really bugging them. Harmonious colours are aquamarine and pastel tones. Lucky numbers are 3 and 5.
 
You're in a very expansive and friendly mood today, making you good company for whoever has the luck to spend time with you. Take people as you find them, rather than expecting them to conform to your own set of rules. Who cares about the colour of someone's skin, their religious beliefs, political ideologies or which country they come from? What concerns you at the moment is what they're like as a person. Bright colours are parchment and ivory. Lucky numbers are 23 and 49.
 
Trivial details have a habit of assuming mega proportions today, making it difficult to keep anything in perspective for long. You could be sidetracked by all sorts of silly things that don't really matter. Try to keep papers and other official documents tidy because you'll waste hours tracking down anything that's gone AWOL. You may also have to cope with a tetchy boss or relative, so be warned. Propitious colours are pistachio and grey. Lucky numbers are 39 and 37.
 
You're in a very sunny, even-tempered mood, which will make you popular with whoever has the good fortune to spend time with you. You're polite and considerate, too, even when dealing with people who can be tricky or belligerent. At home you'll enjoy pottering around the place, finding ways to make it look more attractive or comfortable. Playful colours are sea green and tan. Lucky numbers are 2 and 19.
 
You're in the mood to spend money today, especially if you're feeling slightly lonely or rather nostalgic. Splashing out is a way for you to cheer yourself up, which is fine if you aren't going to end up broke at the end of it all. Try to limit yourself if you're already feeling short of money, otherwise you could easily be tempted to splurge on things you can't afford. Stabilising colours are mango and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 4 and 17.
 
Enjoy being sociable today, whether you're having a chatty day with loved ones or you're going to a big gathering. Don't worry if you're often rather shy, because you'll feel much more self-assured today and will have no problem in talking to complete strangers if necessary. If you're single, you could meet someone who you find very attractive. Romantic colours are pineapple and sage. Lucky numbers are 3 and 12.
 
You exchange sharp words with a loved one today, especially if money is the cause of the friction between you. Maybe they want you to fork out some cash on their behalf but you object to the very idea, or they disapprove of something you've bought. Try not to let the discussion turn into an exercise in nit-picking or a competition to see who can be the most sarcastic. Fabulous colours are aquamarine and velvet. Lucky numbers are 5 and 40.
 
It's very difficult to keep control of your feelings today. That's because they're all mixed up with your thoughts, so you aren't being nearly as rational or cool-headed as you imagine. Try not to make any important decisions this Saturday because you may regret them when you've had time to calm down and think things through. Stable colours are ginger and violet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 5.
 
You're keen to enjoy yourself today, whether you're at work or at home. Make sure that everyone else has a good time as well; do your best to give them little treats or keep them amused. If you are at work, it's a good opportunity to talk to colleagues about things that might be bothering them and also for discussing how to make everything run more smoothly. Energising colours are spearmint and grape. Lucky numbers are 2 and 13.
 
All you really want to do is spend time with friends and other kindred spirits, preferably doing as little as possible. Meeting some friends for lunch before doing some gentle shopping is your idea of a perfect day, and you might even be inspired to visit an art gallery or museum at some point so you can soak up some culture. But hard work? Forget it! Bold colours are tangerine and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 13 and 45.
 
Are you superstitious about the date? Well, there's no need to be, because this will turn out to be a very productive and enjoyable Friday the 13th. It's a fantastic day for making plans connected with your home, work, health or pets, because you're thinking along very practical and sensible lines. You won't want to waste time, money or energy, either, so won't bother with any ideas or schemes that are obviously unsuitable for some reason. Auspicious colours are olive and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 9 and 2.
 
This is a super day for being organized and efficient, especially if you're at work. There are no flies on you today, and no danger of you discovering any nasty mistakes you've made.

You'll also give a very good impression to bosses or any other people in authority who happen to be watching you. Steady colours are apricot and green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 5.
 
Although it's Friday 13, you're in a very practical and sensible mood, making it great for thinking things through and making plans for the future. You might benefit from someone's advice or input, although you won't want to rely on them. Alternatively, you may be the one who's talking from experience and giving someone your valuable opinion. If you work as a teacher, there'll be some encouraging news. Fortunate colours are crimson and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 16.
 
Don't worry about the inauspicious date, because this looks like being a really good day for you. You'll manage to get a lot done, especially if it concerns serious matters, and you'll enjoy feeling that you're on top of everything. It's also a great opportunity to talk to friends you trust, perhaps because you want to pick their brains or benefit from their experience. Insightful colours are ebony and ivory. Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
 
Get organized, Fishy Folk. Or are you more interested right now in organizing other people, such as the rest of the family? Well, you'll have no problems on either score because you're in such an efficient frame of mind. If you're currently arranging a social event, such as a party or wedding, this is a good day for checking that all the arrangements are running smoothly and no one has forgotten anything vital. Advantageous colours are peach blossom and fire opal. Lucky numbers are 10 and 6.
 
This is a fantastic day for getting things done. You're in such an organized frame of mind that you're capable of achieving a lot. You'll manage it without any fanfare or fuss, either, but that's fine because you're doing things for your own sense of satisfaction, rather than for any praise you might hope to get from other people. Beneficial colours are tan and cream. Lucky numbers are 22 and 7.
 
This is the perfect day for solving problems connected with money and possessions, because you're in a very practical and sensible frame of mind. You'll be able to express your ideas clearly and state any complaints without making it sound as though you're moaning. It's also a good opportunity to have a private conversation about something that means a lot to you. Ideal colours are dark brown and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 14 and 17.
 
This is a super day for being organized and practical. You're already eager to get cracking because the last thing you want to do is waste your time and feel you haven't achieved anything. So what do you have in mind? You'll excel at anything involving joint or official finances, work, daily chores and anything else that ensures the smooth- running of your world. Practical colours are hazel and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 4 and 12.
 
There's a lot you can achieve today, especially if you're allowed to get on with it in peace. It's not that you're feeling antisocial or unfriendly, simply that you'll appreciate having some time to yourself in which you can marshal your thoughts and not have to cope with irritating interruptions every five minutes. Your best ideas will come when you're left to your own devices. Beneficial colours are blueberry and american oak. Lucky numbers are 1 and 6.
 
Spend time today with someone you consider to be a mentor or guide, because they'll be able to give you so much. For a start, they might give you some excellent advice based on their own wealth of experience, and they'll also give you moral support so you don't feel as though you're on your own. Your conversation will be no-nonsense but affectionate. Stabilising colours are auburn and violet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 7.
 
You're blessed with heaps of commonsense today, and you're thinking along very practical lines. This is a brilliant day for putting forward your point of view in a discussion or negotiation because you'll be able to express yourself with clarity and forethought, and you'll also be receptive to other people's opinions. You'll stand out from the crowd! Fortuitous colours are raspberry and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 23 and 31.
 
Don't worry about the date because things are looking good for you. It's a particularly favourable day for sorting out your domestic finances or for investing some money in your home or family. The more organized you can be now, the more successful your financial moves will be. Speaking of moving, it's a great day for buying or selling property! Advantageous colours are mango and burnt sienna. Lucky numbers are 2 and 12.
 
Your thoughts turn to your values from today and these will occupy your mind for the coming fortnight. During this time you could find it useful to consider your priorities in life, and whether they get the attention they deserve or they have to take a back seat to other concerns. This will also be an excellent chance to talk about your finances to an expert or adviser. Dazzling colours are peach blossom and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 13.
 
During the coming fortnight you'll enjoy using your brain, whether for business purposes or purely for fun. You'll certainly enjoy pitting your wits against those of other people, so how about taking part in a pub quiz, so you can show off your general knowledge, or entering a competition. You're feeling lucky right now and, after all, someone's got to win. Why shouldn't it be you? Relaxing colours are honeycomb and banana. Lucky numbers are 15 and 59.
 
Your thoughts turn to domestic pursuits from today, such as how to improve your home or when you can arrange a family gathering. During the coming two weeks you'll spend more time than usual talking to members of the family, especially if there's something special to discuss. If you're making some home-improvement plans, make sure you share them with everyone who'll be affected by them so you can sound them out. Vibrant colours are mixed tones and violet. Lucky numbers are 3 and 1.
 
During the next two weeks you need to spend plenty of time thinking about your general health and fitness. Are you looking after yourself properly? Should you make an appointment with a health specialist so you can talk about a long-running problem? Or do you fancy reading a book that promises to boost your health or change your diet? Start making positive changes now, so they'll soon become second nature. Sunny colours are caramel and copper. Lucky numbers are 15 and 52.
 
The more you communicate with partners during the coming fortnight, the more improvement you will see in your relationships. After all, if you can't talk to one another, things will always be a bit iffy between you because something will be missing from your mutual understanding. This phase will also be good for taking part in discussions and generally expressing your opinions. Favourable colours are burnt umber and mixed tones. Lucky numbers are 7 and 11.
 
During the coming fortnight, thanks to Mercury the Messenger you'll spend a lot of time talking to other people. Expect more phone calls than usual, visitors to your home and you might get caught up in some neighbourhood activities that involve mixing with lots of people. All this will be very enjoyable, and it could be instructive, because you'll hear some interesting snippets of information. Beneficial colours are amber and indigo. Lucky numbers are 28 and 20.
 
Are you fed up with your current job, or do you suspect that you aren't fulfilling your real purpose? Then start thinking about how you can improve the situation.

Advantageous colours are fuchsia and lilac. Lucky numbers are 8 and 20.
 
The coming fortnight will be a fantastic opportunity to think seriously about your finances, and especially about those you share with other people.

If necessary, talk to someone whose business is money, so you know you're getting some good advice. Auspicious colours are hazel and honey. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
If you're a typical Virgo you always enjoy using your brain, and that will be even more true than usual during the next two weeks. In fact, you'll have a great thirst for knowledge and will enjoy cramming as much of it into your brain as possible, whether you take off on journeys of the mind or body. If you're travelling you'll want to soak up as much of the local atmosphere as you can. Lively colours are mixed colours and royal blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 4.
 
You haven't been very forthcoming recently but you're much more chatty and voluble from today. In fact, there may even be times when you'll be reluctant to draw breath and let anyone else have a chance to say anything. You'll be very wrapped up in personal concerns and will find it hard to think or talk about much else, but you may have to force yourself sometimes. Expansive colours are charcoal and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 1 and 19.
 
You embark on a contemplative phase from today, during which you'll enjoy mulling over your thoughts in private.

It's a great opportunity to teach yourself meditation or any other activity that helps you to explore your inner world. Comforting colours are aqua and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 27 and 73.
 
Your thoughts turn to plans for the future from today, and you'll continue to think about them for the next two weeks. Maybe you haven't got anything exciting planned, in which case you need to get out your diary and arrange something nice. Or perhaps you're in the middle of making some long-range plans and you now need to pay even more attention to them than ever. Vibrant colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 5 and 49.
 
Your thoughts and emotions are working in tandem today, making it easy for you to put your feelings into words. This is just what you need if you're hoping to have a long chat with your other half or you've got to explain your motives to someone. If you haven't been in touch with a far-off friend for a while, pick up the phone or send them an email to let them know you're thinking about them. Beneficial colours are marigold and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 12 and 26.
 
The emotional temperature rises by several notches today, leading to a rather fraught atmosphere. If someone is being really bossy and throwing their weight around, you wonder how on earth you can handle them. Or perhaps you're feeling really churned up about something and it's coloured your entire day. Whatever is wrong, blame the stars and keep it in perspective. Don't turn it into a major drama if it's really only a minor snag. Beneficial colours are plum and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 8 and 18.
 
You're busy thinking about everyday topics today, and you'll enjoy discussing them with whoever happens to be around. You're in an inquisitive mood, too, so you'll want to get to the bottom of things rather than accept them without any further thought. It's a great day for organizing a forthcoming trip or holiday, and you'll love sorting out all the details of your journey. Fortunate colours are avocado and violet. Lucky numbers are 1 and 43.
 
You can look forward to a busy day, filled with lots of chatter. Much of the talk may be about health, work or money, but that doesn't matter because you'll be interested in what's being said. You'll also enjoy spending time with colleagues and customers, perhaps by combining work and pleasure, or by having a long chat with them. Practical colours are violet and maroon. Lucky numbers are 39 and 40.
 
The busier you are today the more you'll enjoy yourself. You certainly won't be very chuffed if you have to spend too much time in one place or doing one thing, because you're looking for more variety than that. Don't be surprised if the phone rings itself silly, you get a thousand emails, or a quick walk round the block turns into a marathon gossip-session. It's one of those days! Opportune colours are avocado and rose. Lucky numbers are 1 and 3.
 
Have your say about things that concern you at home or at work, but do not try to dominate the conversation or insist that you get your own way at every opportunity. You simply want things to run as smoothly as possible and will take satisfaction from expressing your opinion, so everyone knows what you think. Advantageous colours are amethyst and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 38 and 40.
 
This is a great day for catching up with important paperwork, whether it's connected with your work or your dealings with officialdom. You'll find it easy to deal with bureaucrats, fill in forms or do anything else that's necessary. If you really fancy getting organized you'll gain a lot of satisfaction from doing some filing or chucking out papers you no longer need. Favourable colours are parchment and aqua. Lucky numbers are 36 and 44.
 
Conversations and negotiations go really well today, so voice your opinion or get chatting to people. It's especially good for having a good gossip with a friend or neighbour or a long natter on the phone. Don't worry if none of your conversations amount to very much. What's important right now is to make contact with others. The fact that you're gossiping rather than discussing events of world importance doesn't matter. Expansive colours are mango and khaki. Lucky numbers are 7 and 24.
 
Be careful how you handle disagreements today because they have the potential to be rather unpleasant. That's because either you or the other person will get on your high horse, or try to manipulate one another into doing what you want. You should also avoid using emotional blackmail in order to win your argument. Positive colours are russet and spring green. Lucky numbers are 26 and 41.
 
Take care when dealing with someone today otherwise you could be drawn into a battle of wills. Both of you are determined to get your own way, which means you'll soon get bogged down in a stalemate with neither of you prepared to concede an inch. This won't get you very far, so do your best to take the long view and be more tolerant of one another. Advantageous colours are opal and teal. Lucky numbers are 4 and 13.
 
Get to grips with little details today, such as filling in forms, checking your bank statements and other small but necessary chores. Very little will escape your eagle-eyed notice, so it's a good day for checking other important things as well. If you're working in conjunction with someone you'll want the atmosphere between you to be as harmonious as possible, and will do your best to be helpful and chummy. Auspicious colours are magenta and onyx. Lucky numbers are 22 and 17.
 
There seems to be an argument about who owns what. Maybe someone thinks you've collared one of their possessions, or you're accusing them of taking what's rightfully yours. Don't invite trouble by lending or borrowing anything of value today because it could end up causing a lot of resentment, and quite frankly it simply isn't worth it. Ideal colours are beige and smoky purple. Lucky numbers are 27 and 40.
 
Close relationships start to flourish from today, and this happy phase continues until early June. It's a great time to establish a greater sense of intimacy, whether you've only just met or you've known the object of your interest for years. The trick is to let your emotional guard down and be prepared to take a few risks. You could be pleasantly surprised by the results. Delightful colours are burgundy and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 15 and 69.
 
During the next few weeks you'll enjoy spending time with people who are either much younger or much older than you, and you won't notice the generation gap at all. It will also be a great opportunity for getting to know someone you admire or who's in a position of power. You don't want to suck up to them, of course, but it won't hurt to be friendly and polite. Fortunate colours are black and magenta. Lucky numbers are 25 and 78.
 
Romance is in the air for the rest of May, putting you in a rather dreamy and sentimental mood. You might only have eyes for you- know-who, or you could become caught up in a secret flirtation that seems harmless at first but quickly develops into something rather more serious. You'll be very idealistic, too, making it hard for you to deal with harsh reality. Beneficial colours are hazelnut and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 33 and 62.
 
During the next few weeks you'll get a tremendous kick out of exploring the world around you. That might involve getting on a train or plane and visiting somewhere new, or staying at home and falling in love with an idea or form of knowledge. You could even lose your heart to someone who comes from another country or a different way of life. Beneficial colours are fudge and mango. Lucky numbers are 10 and 38.
 
It's time to start putting emphasis on your friendships, Leo. If you've lost touch with someone lately, this is your chance to pick up the threads again. Give them a call or send them a card to let them know you're thinking about them. If your social life has dwindled dramatically, how about reviving it by joining a society or organization that caters for one of your interests? You could meet some kindred spirits as a result. Beneficial colours are oyster and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 14 and 62.
 
Between now and early June you'll enjoy taking care of your body. That might involve arranging some complementary therapies, such as an aromatherapy massage or some reflexology. Food and drink will be even more important than usual, which should ring warning bells if you're supposed to be monitoring your calorific intake. Edible temptations will be even more enticing than usual. Great colours are caramel and platinum. Lucky numbers are 15 and 50.
 
If you're looking for love, you could find it on your own doorstep. Yes, during the rest of the month you'll enjoy mixing with neighbours and other people who live in your vicinity, and one of them could really set your pulses racing. Even if you're already spoken for, you'll have fun getting involved in local activities now. Romantic colours are amethyst and ebony. Lucky numbers are 5 and 12.
 
You feel even more energized and upbeat today. This life- enhancing state will continue until early June. It will be a great opportunity to spend time with some of your favourite people, especially if you haven't seen them in a while. If it's a long time until your next holiday you'll feel better for having something nice to look forward to, so consider arranging a long weekend away or inviting someone to visit you. Fortunate colours are honeycomb and peach. Lucky numbers are 2 and 8.
 
In stark contrast to yesterday, today you embark on a three- week phase in which you want to create as much harmony and relaxation with other people as possible. This is a time for forgetting your differences and celebrating what brings you together. Bury the hatchet and turn the other cheek. This will definitely work to your advantage but at times it may be tougher to put into practice than you think. Bold colours are aubergine and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 14 and 1.
 
Between now and early June you'll want to spend plenty of time with people you know well. You'll definitely prefer their company to that of strangers or acquaintances. Familiar places rather than new environments will be more pleasurable, so it's a good opportunity to spend more time at home. This is your cue to do a lot of entertaining or to arrange a big family get-together. Favourable colours are peach and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 1 and 9.
 
Between now and early June you'll feel the need to devote plenty of time and energy to the pastimes and people you value most. This might mean making a point of mixing with friends more than usual, or you could decide that you're going to rearrange your daily routine so you've got more time for a favourite activity or hobby. It will also be a great opportunity to invest some money, whether you put it into savings or you spend it on something valuable. Favourable colours are coffee and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 34 and 12.
 
You're such a sociable and gregarious soul, Gemini, that you're always popular, but you'll be in even more demand than usual during the next few weeks. This is the perfect opportunity to give yourself a makeover so you can look your best while everyone is fighting for the privilege of spending time with you. A change of image may even win someone's heart. Fortunate colours are lemon and peach. Lucky numbers are 28 and 71.
 
A certain person seems to have lost all patience and tact this bad-tempered Monday. Someone's only too eager to have an argument with you, and probably about the most trivial topic imaginable. However, before you lay all the blame, you too may be in a rather irascible and crotchety mood, and all too happy to get involved in a shouting match. Fortunate colours are mulberry and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 7.
 
You're in the mood to pamper yourself, and that means spending money on a few little treats. Nothing wrong with that, provided that you know when to stop and you don't raid any communal kitties or joint accounts in the process. At some point today you'll want to bring out your sensual, hedonistic side and you'll feel short-changed if this doesn't happen. Favourable colours are khaki and sepia. Lucky numbers are 28 and 20.
 
There's emphasis on the older people in your life at the moment and today you need to pay attention to someone who comes into this category. Maybe a parent or elderly relative needs plenty of tender loving care, or an older friend could do with some support. Give them your help gladly, even if it's slightly inconvenient, and you'll realize it's a pleasure to do so. Soothing colours are lavender and aqua. Lucky numbers are 22 and 34.
 
You're starting to feel more like your normal self, which is a relief. If you didn't see someone yesterday because you couldn't summon up the energy, or you were about as much fun as a wet towel, this is a good chance to make amends. If possible, get together with some of your nearest and dearest at some point today, even if you only meet briefly for a cuppa. It will do you good to see them. Auspicious colours are platinum and rose. Lucky numbers are 17 and 29.
 
Someone is very impatient and hasty, and they'll object loudly if they think anyone is being slow or dragging their heels. This will soon cause a lot of tension because you'll feel edgy and as though this person is breathing down your neck. If there's a delay or hitch in a travel plan you'll want to get things moving again as fast as possible, but others may not want to proceed at your speed. Expansive colours are lilac and beige. Lucky numbers are 29 and 39.
 
Do something enjoyable and relaxing today, even if you can only devote a short time to it due to pressing concerns. It's important that you give yourself a treat at some point, or you'll feel as though you're missing out. Today also presents a wonderful opportunity for making a fuss of someone you really care about, whether it's a special day for them or you simply want to celebrate having them in your life. Playful colours are magenta and copper. Lucky numbers are 22 and 21.
 
Someone's ready to come out fighting today, so be careful what you say. They're feeling aggressive and domineering, and you might accidentally provoke them into losing their temper. Or are you secretly goading them into getting angry with you? There could be a disparity in your status, with one of you being older or more influential than the other one, making it difficult to have an even-sided argument. Beneficial colours are violet and olive. Lucky numbers are 13 and 21.
 
Give yourself a treat and indulge in some pampering! It's exactly what you need right now, whether you're spending a small fortune or almost nothing at all. Your charm quotient is pretty high, too, so it's a super day for winning people over through the sheer strength and warmth of your personality. Don't underestimate yourself! Inspirational colours are silvery grey and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 5 and 5.
 
It's a tricky day because you're feeling aggressive and irritable, and almost anything could set you off. If you know what you're angry about then you should try to sort it out, perhaps by clearing the air with the person concerned. But if you don't know what you're so annoyed about, don't just take out your irritation on whoever happens to be around because that's not fair and you'll spend all day scrapping and snapping at others. Instead, find constructive physical outlets for your feelings. Auspicious colours are american oak and golden yellow. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
Someone is in a combative mood today. It's hard to talk to them for long without them getting angry or feeling got at. Ask this person what the problem is, although they may become so tricky and argumentative that quite frankly you'd prefer to let them stew in their own juice for the time being. Come to think of it, maybe that isn't such a bad idea. Advantageous colours are green and bronze. Lucky numbers are 6 and 4.
 
It feels as though you're running round in ever decreasing circles, especially if someone is chivvying you along or nagging you about being too slow. Alternatively, you'll be the one who's cracking the whip, in which case you need to do so in moderation otherwise your impatience will lead to a very tricky atmosphere. Favourable colours are caramel and cream. Lucky numbers are 32 and 65.
 
It's a super day because it's so easy to get on well with other people. You've got something nice to say to everyone, even if they aren't your favourite people. This polite approach encourages them to behave with equal consideration and courtesy towards you. If you've been waiting for the right time to apologize to someone, take a deep breath and do it today. Expansive colours are amber and lime. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.
 
Today's New Moon will affect your friendships and future plans over the next two weeks. This means you might meet someone who'll become a new friend or associate, or an existing friendship could enter a completely new phase. If you've been meaning to extend your social life by joining a club or society, this is the perfect time to take the plunge. It might work out a lot better than you'd hoped. Fortunate colours are jade and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 10 and 51.
 
The New Moon shines a bright light on your career and long-term plans and inspires you to make a fresh start with them during the next two weeks. Maybe this is your cue to apply for a new job or work towards a cherished ambition? Don't underestimate what you're capable of, Leo, because this is your chance to dazzle everyone with your many skills. Auspicious colours are ochre and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 16 and 20.
 
Today's New Moon heralds a turning point in your relationship. If things have been difficult between you lately they could start to improve, or you might embark on a completely new connection with someone you've only just met. If you're about to move in with someone or marry them, you've chosen a really auspicious time to do it. Congratulations! Harmonious colours are silver and avocado. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
You aren't at your most practical or organized today, so take care if you're supposed to be doing something complicated or important. The fact is that you'd rather curl up in a corner with a good book and let the world carry on without you, so it will be a struggle to put on a smiling face and pretend that you're completely in control of yourself. Ideally, you should postpone doing anything really important until you feel better able to cope with it. Fortunate colours are coffee and lime. Lucky numbers are 13 and 66.
 
Look after yourself because you don't have as much energy as usual. If you are feeling rather dispirited or even despondent due to problematic planetary influences, you won't feel very bouncy. Take things gently and avoid anyone who's too aggressive or demanding for your current mood. Beneficial colours are ultramarine and mango. Lucky numbers are 3 and 18.
 
This is a fantastic day for doing some research. You want to uncover facts and figures, and won't be happy unless you've tracked down all the info you're looking for. Maybe this means you'll read the Sunday papers from cover to cover or spend hours surfing the net. But don't forget to talk to loved ones because one of them may turn out to have the answers you're looking for. Bold colours are black and apricot. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
You need to pace yourself today because you're feeling lethargic and listless. Maybe you didn't get much sleep last night or it's just one of those days when you don't seem to have any energy. Or is the real problem that you're fretting about something and the worry is draining your vitality? Try to take things gently and mix with people who are restful and undemanding. Relaxing colours are fuchsia and cherry. Lucky numbers are 19 and 47.
 
You're feeling much more positive than you were yesterday, which is good news, and you're ready to put right any mistakes that you made while you were feeling so down. You're in an inquisitive mood this Sunday and you'll enjoy getting to the bottom of anything that even remotely resembles a mystery. If you've got the time you'll love burying your nose in a detective novel or watching a thriller on TV. It's exactly what you're in the mood for. Inspirational colours are dark grape and khaki. Lucky numbers are 27 and 29.
 
There's a New Moon today, and it's just what you need to lift your spirits after the problems of the past few days. Allow it to work its magic on you by reinforcing your enthusiasm for future projects and renewing your energy so you can do something about them. You might also make some interesting new contacts during the coming fortnight, so get out and about as much as possible. Fortunate colours are navy and peach. Lucky numbers are 37 and 26.
 
Today's New Moon brightens up your life, and you could do with some sunshine after the difficulties of the past few days. Happily, the next couple of weeks will be full of enjoyment, laughter and entertainment if you play your cards right. Start arranging some social events that you can look forward to, or book up a few treats such as a visit to the theatre, cinema or your favourite restaurant. Beautiful colours are yellow and sable. Lucky numbers are 19 and 31.
 
This is a terrific day for doing some research or getting to the bottom of a mystery. You're in an inquisitive frame of mind and will happily sift through lots of facts, until you find what you're looking for. Right now you're also interested in what makes people tick, so will enjoy asking others about their interests and backgrounds. Avoid questions that are too personal or prying. Stabilising colours are orange and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 20 and 15.
 
This is a wonderful day for taking part in a discussion or negotiation because talking things through will lead to increased understanding of one another. With luck, your conversation will get down to the nub of the problem, giving you the chance to sort it out and come to some sort of agreement. You'll be justified in feeling pleased with the way you've handled everything. Fortunate colours are shimmering gold and navy. Lucky numbers are 24 and 49.
 
Some disturbing news will cast a blight over the day if you let it. You might get a nasty letter from your bank or credit card company, which will set off all sorts of worries. There could also be a change of plan to a social occasion, which you aren't very happy about. Do your best to keep such problems in proportion otherwise they'll nag away at you for hours. Beneficial colours are bright red and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 17 and 2.
 
If you ask someone's advice today, make sure you can take it, otherwise you could be left with your ears ringing from a long list of all your faults. Mind you, you'll be equally critical about yourself, even if you don't put your thoughts into words. Try not to get caught up in a negative trap of thinking black thoughts about yourself and then doing things that reinforce your poor view of yourself. Favourable colours are striped agate and viridian. Lucky numbers are 30 and 12.
 
It's easy to take other people's criticisms and harsh comments to heart today, leaving you feeling harried and upset. Someone is in a very critical mood, and once they get started on a list of your faults you'll wonder what you've done to deserve such an ear-bashing. Listen to the bits that are relevant and constructive, but try to screen out anything unnecessarily negative or unfair. Fortunate colours are peach and gold. Lucky numbers are 15 and 78.
 
You could hear some rather dispiriting news today which makes you feel fed up or worried. If this happens, the key is not to over-react by instantly assuming the worst. You need to assess all the facts before rushing to fearful conclusions, so remind yourself to be practical and objective. It may help to discuss what's wrong, but avoid talking to anyone who tends to panic. Chin up! Beneficial colours are burnt orange and avocado. Lucky numbers are 1 and 11.
 
Once again you've got to cope with a low-key atmosphere and someone who seems to take delight in dowsing everything in cold water. Negative and carping comments really start to get you down after a while. Maybe you should give them as wide a berth as possible. If they tell you a few home truths these won't make for comfortable listening because they could be a lot more accurate than you like to think. Ouch! Calming colours are cream and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 10 and 23.
 
A loved one means well, but you could be forgiven for thinking otherwise. They're being critical and harsh, and you may suspect they aren't very impressed with your brainpower. Let this all wash over you, because it's likely that you're reading too much into the situation and are feeling rather defensive. Relax and calm down. Restful colours are ebony and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 25 and 43.
 
There's a frost in the air today and it's got nothing to do with the weather. Instead, it seems there's a difference of opinion between you and a loved one, which is putting you out of sorts and making you feel worried. Criticism is creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. If you're fretting about the welfare of a loved one, don't let your imagination get the better of you. Beneficial colours are copper and champagne. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
Look after yourself today, because gloomy or critical thoughts will never be far away. You might castigate yourself over something that you did or didn't do, to the point where it's all you can think about. Or you may have to listen to someone who's very anxious to point out all your faults or pick holes in whatever you're saying. It's a difficult day but do your best to rise above it. Sunny colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 26.
 
If you've achieved little during the past few days your conscience will start to catch up with you today. Don't give yourself a hard time because that will simply make you feel worse, rather than spurring you on to better things. Avoid anyone who's negative or critical because they'll be even more difficult than usual and you'll soon feel overwhelmed by them. Liberating colours are striped agate and platinum. Lucky numbers are 22 and 12.
 
You need to cultivate a thick skin or someone's harsh criticisms and scathing comments will cut you to the quick. Are you reading too much into what they're saying, making you rather paranoid and touchy? It's difficult to know, but you can help the situation by refusing to brood on things that go wrong and also by keeping faith in yourself and your abilities. Don't send yourself any negative messages! Beneficial colours are red velvet and basalt. Lucky numbers are 11 and 22.
 
Once again you're in a sombre and strained mood. Feeling doubtful about your abilities to do things properly robs you of self-confidence. Don't put yourself down when talking to other people. Don't give them any ammunition! Unfortunately they could still be critical of you, making you feel you can't do anything right. Strong colours are dark grey and electric opal. Lucky numbers are 3 and 59.
 
If your spending went overboard on Thursday, try not to feel guilty and worried. You may have to listen to some uncomfortable home truths when someone ticks you off or forces you to face up to what you've done. The post may also bring some nasty news in the shape of a depressing bank statement or a reminder about a bill that has yet to be paid. If you're waiting for a payment it might be delayed. What a day! Beneficial colours are butterscotch and copper. Lucky numbers are 5 and 21.
 
Ask someone a question and then sit back while they give you a very long answer. Yes, it's one of those days when people are feeling loquacious and chatty, so it's difficult to get away from them once they start talking. Bear this in mind if you've got to make a long- distance phone call because it might end up costing you a lot more money than you'd hoped. Perhaps you should send an email instead? Intuitive colours are dark pink and bronze. Lucky numbers are 18 and 25.
 
No sooner has a thought popped into your head than you've put it into words. You're certainly in a very voluble and chatty mood, but the trick lies in knowing when to speak up and when to shut up. If everyone starts developing glazed looks, or possibly even begins to fall asleep, you'll know you've gone too far. Turn the conversation round to them, fast! Advantageous colours are copper and navy. Lucky numbers are 23 and 22.
 
It's a difficult day. You're feeling tired and listless, yet you're facing a list of duties and chores that need urgent attention. Do yourself a favour and get as much rest and relaxation as possible, because you simply don't have the energy to push yourself hard. Keep away from anyone bearing germs in case they're generous enough to give you some of them. Opportune colours are royal blue and navy. Lucky numbers are 26 and 55.
 
An older friend or relative could do with some help today, whether that means doing their shopping for them, dropping in for a chat or running some errands on their behalf. What matters most of all for them is the knowledge that you're thinking about them and that you care, so give them a ring or write them a letter if you can't see them in person. Sunny colours are honey and dark green. Lucky numbers are 14 and 14.
 
If you've lost touch with a friend and you're wondering how they are, give them a ring or write them a letter today. You've got nothing to lose and you'll be thrilled if they're happy to hear from you. There could also be a lot more contact than usual with other chums, so prepare yourself for a highly sociable day. Auspicious colours are peacock blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 21 and 74.
 
You're in a little world of your own today, making it difficult to come down to earth long enough to deal with much reality. It's not that you've drifted off into la-la land, simply that you're in the mood to daydream and don't want to get involved in anything that seems too strenuous, unpleasant or challenging. Listen to your gut instincts when talking to people. Favourable colours are champagne and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 19 and 5.
 
Once again, money is the main topic of the day, but for very different reasons. Instead of wanting to fritter it away in all directions, you're now interested in spending it on items that have value or meaning for you. You'll be especially keen on buying things with a New Age or spiritual slant, such as a crystal or deck of tarot cards. Inspiring colours are obsidian and blond. Lucky numbers are 14 and 67.
 
Once again you're in the mood to have fun, and today you simply want to play whenever you get the chance. That might mean getting down on all fours and playing with a baby or toddler, making a big fuss of your pets or taking a small child off on an outing. Alternatively you might prefer more adult pursuits, such as gambling on a game of cards. Emotional colours are peach blossom and pale persimmon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 10.
 
Someone is behaving like a scaled down version of Scrooge today. What a misery. Is there really something sour to say about everything? Don't let this old sourpuss get the better of you. If you can't think who fits this description, make sure you aren't the guilty party. Fortunate colours are golden rod and aqua. Lucky numbers are 32 and 59.
 
If you're trying to concentrate on something important today you'll do best if you can shut yourself away somewhere. That way, you won't have to cope with distractions and interruptions that could put you off your stroke or sidetrack you. Someone in authority is being very garrulous, which is fine if you've got the time to listen but annoying if you haven't. Liberating colours are bright pink and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 15.
 
This is a great day for talking about your deepest feelings. You'll find it surprisingly easy to put your feelings into words, even if this is normally quite difficult for you. However, don't confuse being articulate with being glib, otherwise you'll fall into the trap of saying a lot but not meaning very much. So choose your words carefully, and remember to listen to the other person's point of view when it's their turn to speak. Auspicious colours are honeycomb and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
 
If you're in a hurry today you'd be wise to avoid getting drawn into conversations unless they're absolutely necessary. That's because people are feeling very chatty and once they get talking it may be almost impossible to shut them up again. If you're talking to your other half, make sure you listen to what they're saying, even if they do get rather heated in the process. Favourable colours are nutmeg and lilac. Lucky numbers are 12 and 69.
 
Take care not to speak out of turn or say too much today, because your tongue could easily run away with you. If you feel very enthusiastic about something or you're so relaxed in someone's company, you could accidentally blurt out things that would have been better left unsaid. Beware of exaggerating things in order to sound impressive or improve the story you're telling. Stick to the truth, even if it isn't so exciting! Beneficial colours are treacle and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 17.
 
Someone is being very expansive and gregarious, and may sweep you off your feet with the strength of their personality. This will be enjoyable and good fun, but after a while you may start to wonder if they're entirely genuine. Aren't they being a bit over the top? Take note, because you may also have a tendency to be rather gushy right now. Don't worry, it won't last! Happy colours are silver and bronze. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
Surround yourself with loved ones and other familiar faces because that's exactly what you're in the mood for. You may have to get some work out of the way, but resist the temptation to hurry through it so you can enjoy yourself more quickly. After that, you can relax and spend the rest of the day in the way you want. Ambitious colours are brown and white. Lucky numbers are 19 and 14.
 
You're in a very expansive and gregarious mood. Enjoyment is your number one priority. So how are you going to spend the day? Ideally, you should get together with friends because they'll keep you cheerful and happy. If you're planning on going out for a meal or a drink, keep an eye on the cost or it could mount up without you realizing. Healing colours are bright pink and claret ash. Lucky numbers are 26 and 59.
 
Someone gets carried away today and loses track of the facts. That means they might start to exaggerate a little, purely to make their story sound better, so don't believe everything you hear. You're in the mood for some variety and will quickly start to feel bored, if you're stuck in one place doing the same thing, for too long. So try to have plenty of changes of scene if you want to stay alert and awake. Dynamic colours are navy and red. Lucky numbers are 18 and 47.
 
Do your best to keep tabs on facts and figures today, otherwise they could easily slip through your fingers due to a temporary lack of interest on your part. It won't help that your mind is on more exciting things, such as a social event you're really looking forward to, because it means these mundane matters come way down your list of current priorities. Steady colours are aqua and amber. Lucky numbers are 11 and 71.
 
You're very fond of a certain someone but you must admit that they seem to be rather full of themselves right now. Maybe they're blowing their own trumpet and telling you how wonderful they are, or they're fishing for lots of compliments from you. The best option is to keep your sense of humour and, possibly, to gently tease them about what they're doing. Ideal colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 48.
 
Money won't hang around for too long today because you're so keen to spend it. Be warned if you're going shopping, almost everything you see will be wearing a 'Buy Me' sign, and you'll feel powerless to resist. If you're toying with the idea of buying something very flashy or expensive but haven't yet made up your mind, don't shell out for it today because your enthusiasm will outweigh any caution or restraint you might normally feel. Beneficial colours are caramel and banana. Lucky numbers are 6 and 10.
 
A certain someone is rather full of themselves today. It's nothing to worry about and you may even find this person's behaviour rather endearing, because they can't help being enthusiastic, generous and big-hearted. If you're taking part in a negotiation or discussion, try to abide by your own opinions and don't keep changing your mind in order to please the people around you. Calming colours are autumn brown and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 30 and 7.
 
A certain person is getting awfully big for their boots, as you're about to discover. They might brag about their latest achievements or show off about their prosperity, or do something else that makes you long to tell them to grow up. Try not to get drawn into the sort of conversation in which you compete with each other to see who's the smartest or swankiest. Fortunate colours are maroon and platinum. Lucky numbers are 6 and 33.
 
Money burns a big hole in your pocket today, making it almost impossible for you to resist temptation. The only way to avoid parting with your cash is to stay at home, and even then you'll have to keep away from the internet in case you buy something online. There's no problem, of course, if you're feeling flush at the moment because you'll have a fantastic spending spree, even if later on you do wonder what possessed you to buy so much stuff. Beneficial colours are beige and fawn. Lucky numbers are 13 and 24.
 
Try to take things gently Scorpio, although that may be easier said than done. You're in an exuberant mood, urging you to rush at things rather than taking your time over them. You won't be averse to cutting corners if necessary, although that isn't a good idea and might get you into trouble with someone who's a stickler for doing things by the book. Advantageous colours are rich magenta and golden oak. Lucky numbers are 20 and 26.
 
This is the perfect day for taking life easy and enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance. Let's face it, you aren't in the mood for anything that's too strenuous or difficult, so you'll be happy to coast along for a change. If you're meeting a friend, you'll have a great time together, especially if you can fit in a meal at some point. Food will definitely appeal! Positive colours are saffron and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 23 and 8.
 
There's a very intense atmosphere between you and a loved one today. With luck, this will help the two of you to connect on a very deep level, making even everyday conversations seem more important than usual. However, there's also a strong chance that this intensity will soon lead to stresses and strains, and a sense that you're walking on egg shells around each other. Maybe one of you is brooding about something from the past but doesn't want to say anything? Favourable colours are ginger and crimson. Lucky numbers are 13 and 69.
 
Rush, rush. Getting things done. The pace has slackened since yesterday, so you're now more interested in the quality of your conversations and meetings than in the quantity of them. Even so, you're still feeling vivacious and chatty, which will stand you in excellent stead if you need to charm someone's socks off. Lively colours are green and orange. Lucky numbers are 12 and 5.
 
Find the time to see a friend or relative, especially if they've been going through a bad patch lately. You'll enjoy looking after them and possibly even spoiling them in some way. If you're trying to sort out a financial problem it will pay to be polite and patient, because such tactics will make people much keener to help than if you bang on desks and raise your voice. Positive colours are bright orange and cream. Lucky numbers are 7 and 69.
 
Ideally, you should have a change of scene at some point today because it will help you to feel good and it will also brighten up your day. Maybe you could visit somewhere you've never been before, especially if you take someone along for company. Once again, friends figure prominently in the day's events and you'll enjoy being sociable. Ideal colours are ultramarine and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 12 and 51.
 
It's another good day for building bridges, especially if things have been rather dicey between you lately. This is also a fantastic day for making your contribution to a discussion or negotiation about something that you consider to be important. You may not want to hog the conversation but what you do say will be valuable. Ideal colours are fawn and taupe. Lucky numbers are 39 and 64.
 
You're in a very good mood today and keen to hit it off with everyone. You ooze charm, consideration and tact, which won't do you any harm at all. If you're getting together with someone you'd like to know better, you'll have a nice, easy time of it. It won't be fireworks, but it will be enjoyable and relaxing. And right now, that's fine as far as you're concerned. Fortuitous colours are blue and tan. Lucky numbers are 11 and 29.
 
You're known as the soul of diplomacy, Libra, and today you certainly have the knack of being able to keep on the right side of people. If you're working as part of a team you'll manage to fit in well and keep everyone happy, and also to show that you aren't being competitive or overly ambitious. If you're going to a job interview it will go much better than you expected. Auspicious colours are amethyst and fawn. Lucky numbers are 17 and 40.
 
You long to spend a little money on yourself today, and what's to stop you? Well, the expense of it, for a start! If you're feeling broke at the moment, maybe you should set yourself a strict budget and not go above it. After all, even a small bar of chocolate can make you feel good. If you do decide to go on a splurge, you may want to keep it a secret for the time being. Auspicious colours are brass and khaki. Lucky numbers are 2 and 6.
 
This is a great day to sort out practical matters, such as household shopping, paying domestic bills or having a general tidy-up. Get on with the chores now, because you'll feel such a sense of satisfaction at getting them out of the way. If you're at work you'll make a valuable contribution to whatever is going on. Active colours are fuchsia and hazel. Lucky numbers are 22 and 15.
 
Yesterday was great but it's a different story today. Someone is feeling tense and uptight, making them tough to be around, because they're so easily wound up. Incidents that are frankly old history to everyone else still have the power to get their knickers in a great big twist. Consider their feelings but don't let them bully you into giving them special treatment that they don't really deserve. Fortunate colours are basalt and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 4 and 10.
 
You aren't really in the mood for any hard work, which means it will be a struggle if that's what's expected of you. You'll be happiest if you can work by yourself rather than in the middle of a sea of people, and you'll also appreciate having some attractive or peaceful surroundings. If none of these things is possible, try to have some time to yourself in your spare time. Fortunate colours are aqua and mauve. Lucky numbers are 3 and 55.
 
Get ready for a busy but enjoyable day. You're in the thick of things, so will be quite happy if the phone never stops ringing or you have lots of visitors. You'll enjoy plenty of variety during the course of your day, with several changes of place or short journeys. Don't get stuck in one place by yourself, because that won't suit your convivial and outgoing mood one little bit. Exuberant colours are chocolate and burnished brass. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
Someone is a great support to you today, especially if you need emotional comfort or moral strength. They'll manage to do all this in an unobtrusive way so you don't ever feel you're being patronized or given a helping hand. If you're involved in some sort of charity work you'll take great satisfaction from doing your best now, or simply from donating some money to a worthy cause. Vibrant colours are pale gold and tuscany blue. Lucky numbers are 16 and 44.
 
You've got quite a way with words now, so put them to good use. Being very tactful and diplomatic is best, so choose your words carefully when talking to a certain person. There's little danger of you dropping any clangers today, provided you think before you speak. Your intuition will guide you about what shouldn't be mentioned. Fortunate colours are mandarin and hazel. Lucky numbers are 27 and 26.
 
You're full of consideration today, and you may actually be rather worried about someone. It's a super day for giving moral support, so they know you're on side, especially if something rather daring or unusual is on the agenda. It's also an excellent day for building bridges between you and anyone you've fallen out with lately. Fortunate colours are oyster and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 10 and 12.
 
Are you ready to give someone your moral and emotional support? You may be embarrassed about offering it, perhaps because it feels like an intrusion, but it will probably be very welcome all the same. Start gently and see how your initial overtures are received before taking things any further. A chat with a neighbour or close relative will also go well now. Lucky colours are blue velvet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 23 and 59.
 
You're in a very compassionate and understanding frame of mind today, making it easy for you to tune into the thoughts and feelings of the people around you. There may not even be any need for words when you're with a certain someone because there's such a strong telepathic current flowing between you. Use this gift to know what to say and when to say it, and when it would be best not to mention something. Opportune colours are amethyst and silver. Lucky numbers are 5 and 51.
 
You've got the best of both worlds because not only are you in a calm state emotionally but you're also able to think seriously about important matters. This means you'll be a dab hand at sorting out anything connected with bureaucracy, such as having to talk to your tax office or get in touch with your bank. You'll also manage to cultivate a warm rapport with a boss, superior or older relative. Advantageous colours are bronze and lemon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 66.
 
You're able to see all sides of an argument today, which is very good news. It means you're being considerate and rational, and also that you won't insist that everyone sees things your way or not at all. Compromise is the name of the game right now, so be prepared to meet someone halfway if necessary and to accept that no one has all the answers. Not even you! Fortunate colours are pistachio and ochre. Lucky numbers are 22 and 26.
 
This is a delightful day because it's so easy to get on well with other people. If you're at work, make a point of being chatty and friendly to colleagues and customers so things flow between you as well as possible. If you work from home this is a good day for getting yourself better organized, perhaps by rearranging your working environment or having a good tidy-up. Delightful colours are pink and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 26 and 28.
 
Things start to calm down again today, which is just as well after the irritations of the past few days. It's a wonderful opportunity to set the record straight with someone you've fallen out with recently, so long as you're sincere about apologizing and putting matters to rights. You may also be asked to give someone your moral support so they know you care about them and have their best interests at heart. Auspicious colours are violet and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 14 and 5.
 
A friend has some wise words for you today, so listen carefully. It's not that they're trying to interfere in your life, or that they think you're on a collision course with disaster. They simply think they might be able to help you in some way, especially by lending you their moral support or giving you some carefully thought out advice. Beneficial colours are navy and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 25 and 27.
 
Friends are great company and they spark off some imaginative ideas. However, choose your chums very carefully, avoiding anyone who's very loud, boisterous or plain hard work. Opt for people who are gentle, sympathetic and easy-going. There will be a strange coincidence with one of them. Fortunate colours are ivory and cherry. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
Something or someone gets under your skin today, making you agitated and irritable. There may be reasons why you can't show how you're feeling, perhaps because the circumstances aren't right, but you'll certainly be fuming underneath. Try not to bottle up your feelings too much because that will only make matters worse. If necessary, let off steam with some exercise. Relaxing colours are apricot and onyx. Lucky numbers are 10 and 12.
 
It's another potentially combustible day because you're feeling impatient and irritable. Everyone is moving too slowly and deliberately for your liking, or perhaps you're simply in a tearing hurry. It's easy to lose your rag over the smallest little thing, but try not to get heated over trivial matters that wouldn't normally bother you. If you do start to get really irritable and can feel yourself getting out of control, channel all that nervous energy into constructive physical activities. Powerful colours are jade and olive. Lucky numbers are 31 and 72.
 
You're raring to go and you'll feel really frustrated if you can't do something interesting or unusual at some point. You're starting to get itchy feet, too, so ideally you should make plans for a forthcoming journey or holiday. Even if you can't go away at the moment you'll enjoy dreaming about where you'd go if you could. Uplifting colours are violet and champagne. Lucky numbers are 27 and 46.
 
You're in a highly dynamic and energetic mood today. The last thing you want to do now is to sit on your hands or waste your time, because you're filled with a strong sense of impatience and urgency. It's a wonderful day for standing your ground in a disagreement with someone in authority, or for taking charge of a situation and showing your leadership qualities. Inspirational colours are strawberry and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 40 and 63.
 
Even though it's Monday, you're a real live wire and are raring to go. Get moving on personal projects and other things that mean a lot to you, though you'll feel annoyed if it seems that someone is standing in your way or dragging their heels. You could even get rather irritable with people who can't operate at your fast pace. Advantageous colours are tudor rose and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
A friend could easily get under your skin now, making you feel irritated. Perhaps they're being a bit pushy or heavy-handed, and you don't like it. Should you lose your temper with them or just grin and bear it? The trouble with keeping quiet is that you'll probably convey your displeasure in other way, such as looking annoyed or being sulky, so it may be much better to get things off your chest and then forget all about them. Beneficial colours are teal blue and ebony. Lucky numbers are 10 and 18.
 
This is a good day for thinking about your plans for the future and deciding whether they're still on track. Are things going well, or do you need to rethink some of your ideas? A few tweaks now will save you lots of time and effort further down the line, especially if the alternative is to continue with a scheme that's already looking iffy and which might easily end up going nowhere. Auspicious colours are lavender and saffron. Lucky numbers are 28 and 13.
 
A loved one is in a tearing hurry, so they'll chivvy you along at every opportunity. You could soon lose your patience about this because it's very annoying to have this person breathing down your neck. Or maybe you're the one who's looking at their watch and getting agitated? If so, what's the big hurry and is it worth getting your knickers in a twist? Calming colours are butterscotch and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
You're raring to get things sorted out financially and you'll feel very frustrated if others fail to match your rapid pace. For instance, you'll soon get rattled if you ring up your bank or mortgage company and get stuck in one of those endless phone cues. You'll also lose your rag if someone is supposed to know what's going on but obviously doesn't have a clue. You'll be determined to shake things up! Fortunate colours are auburn and opal. Lucky numbers are 11 and 60.
 
You'll need every ounce of patience when dealing with a certain person today, but can you rise to the challenge? Maybe they're being too slow and painstaking, which is driving you nuts, or perhaps they're trying to provoke you into losing your temper. Get things off your chest if needs be but try not to let rip and cause havoc simply because you need to let off steam. Beneficial colours are burgundy and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 11 and 6.
 
If you couldn't control your feelings yesterday and you snapped, spend today making amends. Have a chat to the person concerned and explain how you were feeling, or buy them a small gift to show how sorry you are. This is a good day for sorting out other sorts of difficult situations too, such as patching up a misunderstanding with a loved one or neighbour. Liberating colours are auburn and brass. Lucky numbers are 10 and 40.
 
It's time to get started on some of those domestic projects. Begin with whatever is most urgent because you're feeling impatient. Even if that isn't possible, at least do something, or you'll start to feel rattled and frustrated. And once that happens you'll get quite irritable with other people, which won't go down well. Active colours are yellow ochre and burnt sienna. Lucky numbers are 35 and 17.
 
Relationships will be something of a mixed blessing during the next few weeks, so be prepared for some ups and downs. You'll want to put a lot of energy into your relationships but you'll get annoyed and impatient if you suspect that other people don't share your eagerness and commitment. However, bullying them or shouting at them won't get you what you want, so forget about trying that tack. Instead, you may have to accept that your needs don't always coincide with those of the special people in your life. Auspicious colours are sable and apricot. Lucky numbers are 6 and 12.
 
It isn't the greatest start to May but don't let that put you off or make you imagine that the day will be a complete disaster. It can easily be salvaged if you remember one or two important points, such as not insisting that you get your own way whenever you want it and not trying to control the behaviour of loved ones. If a row breaks out, use it as an opportunity to clear the air but not as a chance to stick the knife in or rake up lots of bad feeling. Beneficial colours are cinnamon and maroon. Lucky numbers are 16 and 55.
 
Life is rather dicey today because everyone seems to be spoiling for a fight. You're feeling irritable and so are the other people around you. But why? Maybe one of you has set everyone else off, or there are bad feelings about unfortunate episodes from the past. Lose your temper with the person who deserves it but don't take out your bad mood on whoever happens to be around. Auspicious colours are teal blue and black onyx. Lucky numbers are 9 and 5.
 
There's a lot to do between now and mid June, especially around your home. A long list of jobs need your attention and you're finally ready to start them. You may need to sort out a family problem and have been waiting for the right moment. It will feel good to get it all under way but don't expect everyone else to proceed at your own cracking pace. You may have to cope with some slowcoaches. Auspicious colours are lapis lazuli and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 19 and 12.
 
Feelings run high, especially when you're with people you know almost as well as you know yourself. In fact, that's the problem, because the better you know someone today the more likely they are to get straight up your nose. Money, possessiveness and social events are all triggers for arguments now, so try to keep your cool when discussing them. Stabilising colours are silver and opal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
Relations with loved ones are somewhat dodgy today, so take care. You seem to be getting on one another's nerves, which will lead to some bad-tempered and scratchy exchanges. If one of you is fuming about something that belongs in the past but which still feels as though it's only just happened, talk it through with someone who understands, so you can try to put it behind you. Beneficial colours are copper and magenta. Lucky numbers are 10 and 50.
 
You've been struggling to motivate yourself lately, but all that changes today as your energy levels start to rise and you feel more like your old self. This happy state will continue until mid June, and by then you should have achieved all sorts of exciting things. Don't be surprised if you feel more impatient than usual, because you won't want to feel you're wasting time. Bright colours are burgundy and straw blond. Lucky numbers are 39 and 12.
 
It's not the most restful start to the month, because battles for power are raging around you. Maybe someone wants to make you sit up and take notice, or they want to impose their authority on you. If you've recently been annoyed by someone older or more important than you, all your irritation with them will come to a head now, prompting a showdown. It may be necessary but try not to make it unduly unpleasant or bitter. Harmonious colours are crimson and black. Lucky numbers are 3 and 38.
 
Your sense of adventure will be stronger than usual during the next six weeks, and it might even inspire you to jet off to another country or do something that you would never normally contemplate. It will be exciting and invigorating to bring out this daredevil side of your character. Who knows, you might even get quite a taste for it. Favourable colours are honeycomb and dark red. Lucky numbers are 19 and 15.
 
Your ambitions and goals will get a massive boost during the next few weeks, and you channel more energy into them than you have in a long while. Chances like these to get ahead don't come along very often so you shouldn't waste any opportunity to put your name on the map. Nevertheless, you should avoid being ruthless or self-serving because such tactics will eventually trip you up. Harmonious colours are moonlight blue and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 28 and 25.
 
You're in rather a scratchy mood today, but then so is everyone else. There seems to be a lot of tension, especially if a certain person is busy throwing their weight around or being somewhat grand. If you're the one who's behaving like this, it would be wise to tone it down as soon as possible to avoid creating further bad feeling. What's wrong, anyway? Auspicious colours are brilliant white and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 6 and 19.
 
Don't be surprised if it's difficult to get motivated during the next six weeks. The spirit might be willing but the flesh weak, or you may feel a bewildering lack of confidence during this phase. Alternatively, you might be working away behind the scenes without revealing your game plan to anyone. Either way, it will be hard to push yourself between now and mid June. Beneficial colours are sable and jade. Lucky numbers are 1 and 20.
 
Struggling to solve a long-running problem? Then approach it from an entirely different angle and see what happens. You need to think out of the box for a change, and also be prepared to take a few risks. Maybe you should ask someone's opinion if they've had experience of what you're dealing with. Whatever you do, don't restrict your options because you're nervous about doing things differently for a change. Auspicious colours are pale pink and lavender. Lucky numbers are 2 and 40.
 
Do yourself a favour and forget about your usual Saturday routine for a change! You need a break, preferably by doing something totally different and spontaneous. How about visiting a place that you've always wanted to see, or spending time with someone who's rather naughty but exactly the right sort of company at the moment. Ideal colours are saffron and dark green. Lucky numbers are 35 and 62.
 
You always like to think the best of people but you should keep your wits about you today in case someone is trying to dupe you. This is especially important when dealing with financial matters, so take care. For instance, someone might give you a hard luck story that's designed to part you with your cash, and it's only later that you'll discover it was all a pack of lies. Comforting colours are indigo and topaz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 16.
 
Don't mix money and friendship today unless you really want to be disappointed, ripped off or angry at yourself for being duped. Yes, it's one of those days when you should keep an eagle eye on your money and not let anyone else get their mitts on it, even if they seem like a deserving case. So don't fall for a sob story unless you definitely know it's genuine. Even then, you shouldn't be coerced into parting with your cash, so watch out for subtle tactics that are designed to transfer your money into someone else's pocket. Fortunate colours are auburn and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 33 and 62.
 
Beware Gemini, because your emotions could play tricks on you today. For instance, you might put someone on a pedestal because deep down you're frightened to see them as they really are. You might also make excuses for someone who's behaved badly, thereby giving them permission to do it all over again in the near future. Fortunate colours are jade and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 32 and 11.
 
You're in a very idealistic mood today, which is fine if you're aware of it. However, there's a distinct possibility that you'll think you're being realistic instead, especially when it comes to your feelings for some of the people you love. Right now, you're ignoring all their faults and seeing them in the rosiest light possible. That's fine, but you may also be making excuses for their bad behaviour or lack of consideration towards you, which isn't good news at all. Propitious colours are mauve and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 3 and 15.
 
Take a look around your home or workplace today. Is it interesting or could it do with livening up? Even little touches will help to brighten it up, so don't imagine you have to give the place a complete makeover in order to make an impact. However, don't do this all day long because then you'll start to get bored. Ideally, you should keep switching from one activity to the next in order to maintain your interest and keep tedium at bay. Auspicious colours are pumpkin and black onyx. Lucky numbers are 3 and 35.
 
You're very biased where a certain person is concerned today, making it almost impossible for you to view their behaviour in an objective light. Maybe you're making lots of excuses for them because you can't bear to face the unpleasant truth? Be on your guard if you're spending money on domestic items today because you may be signalling that you're a soft touch and it's easy for people to take advantage of you. Auspicious colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 26 and 28.
 
Be careful if someone starts telling you a sob story today because they may be trying to manipulate you in some way. For instance, they might want to make you feel sorry for them so they can play the role of a victim or martyr, or they may have a more mercenary motive for playing on your sympathies. This doesn't mean you should smother all your compassionate feelings, simply that you should make sure that the person concerned really deserves them. Auspicious colours are avocado and cobalt blue. Lucky number is 38.
 
You're in a deliciously romantic dream today, which feels great. You have stars in your eyes whenever you think about you-know-who, and you want to wallow in your fantasies about them. You're being very idealistic and you'll want to ignore any flaws or failures in your beloved. That's fine for today but don't turn a blind eye for too long or you'll be letting yourself in for a rude awakening at some point. You should also be careful when handling money in case someone tries to rook you. Favourable colours are peach and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 37 and 24.
 
Go carefully today, because you're so keen to create a good impression that you may be doing or saying things that don't reflect your true self. If you aren't being true to yourself, the people concerned will be very confused when they finally get a glimmer of who you really are. This is particularly likely when you're dealing with people who are older or more powerful than you. Ideal colours are caramel and coffee. Lucky numbers are 27 and 13.
 
A certain someone is wearing such rose-tinted spectacles today that they're in danger of fooling themselves about a relationship or financial matter. It seems that they're only seeing what they want to see and ignoring any unpleasant details or facts. This is all right if they soon wake up to reality, but it's going to be a big problem if they continue to blind themselves to the truth. This person isn't you, is it? Auspicious colours are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 18 and 61.
 
It's good news if you've got to get through a lot of work because that's exactly what you're in the mood for. You'll enjoy doing a good job, even if you do collapse in a heap at the end of it all. If you're thinking of looking for a new job, and preferably one that's better paid, this is a good day for searching one out. It's also favourable for spending money on anything that will improve your health or that of your pets. Favourable colours are butterscotch and tudor rose. Lucky numbers are 32 and 41.
 
This is the right day day for revealing your true feelings for someone special. You'll enjoy creating a sense of intimacy and trust with them, in which you can bare your soul or share your most private thoughts. You'll be happiest now in small gatherings rather than being surrounded by lots of people. At some point, you'll appreciate enjoying some peace and quiet by yourself. Ideal colours are caramel and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 69.
 
You're viewing life from a very optimistic perspective today and it feels great. What's more, you're ready to try something new, especially if that means taking a chance or accepting a challenge. Right now you're ready for almost anything, particularly if it's connected with education, travel or spirituality. Act quickly, while you're so full of enthusiasm. Expressive colours are lapis lazuli and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 39 and 31.
 
This is a fabulous day for being with loved ones. It will make you feel good to be around people you know inside out and with whom you don't have to make much of an effort. That doesn't mean slobbing around or being rude, simply that you can relax when you're with them and don't have to mind your Ps and Qs. It's also a good day for buying domestic items that everyone will enjoy. Sociable colours are pineapple and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 35 and 71.
 
It's a lovely day, because you're feeling so easy-going and sociable. Spend at least part of the day with some of your favourite people, or with that one special person. You don't have to do anything very memorable, although you'll have a whale of a time if you're going to a party or some other sort of celebration. Insightful colours are aqua and lilac. Lucky numbers are 5 and 20.
 
You long for a bit of peace and quiet today, preferably at home or with loved ones. Yes, you love rushing around being busy sometimes but this isn't one of them. You might even be tempted to cancel some of your appointments or to postpone tonight's social event simply so you can stay at home in front of the TV. Well, why not? Calming colours are mother of pearl and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 19 and 21.
 
Throw yourself into your social life today. Arrange to see some friends or make a date with your other half, and enjoy yourself. You'll find it very easy to get on well with whoever's around and you might even make a new friend if you're lucky. If you're involved in a group gathering you may end up taking the lead in some way. Romantic colours are pale pink and sable. Lucky numbers are 4 and 61.
 
You're very impressive today and will have no trouble in catching the attention of a boss or some other important person. If you play your cards right there might even be a pay rise or promotion in the offing for you at some point. It's also a favourable day if you're going to a job interview or assessment, because you obviously know what you're talking about. Empowering colours are burgundy and purple. Lucky numbers are 21 and 46.
 
This is a fantastic day, full of laughter and happiness. It's a welcome relief after the tears and tantrums that you've had to cope with this April. Ideally, you should forget about work and do things you enjoy instead. Unless, of course, you enjoy your work, in which case you'll have a whale of a time. You're also in a very creative mood, so look for exciting ways to express yourself. Favourable colours are plum and saffron. Lucky numbers are 3 and 19.
 
You're in a very sociable mood today, making you want to spend time with friends, family and neighbours. Maybe this is the perfect excuse to cook lots of food and invite everyone round to your place, or perhaps the thought of a night on the town is too tempting to resist. If you're taking part in a group activity you may be asked to take the lead in some way. Don't worry, you'll do really well. Inspirational colours are grapefruit and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 5 and 19.
 
It's a great day for being sociable, so try not to spend too much time on your own today. You'll get on well with whoever happens to be around, but you'll be happiest if you already know them. If things have been dicey with a neighbour or close relative lately, this is a great opportunity to try to set the record straight and restore the peace. Ideal colours are ice blue and avocado. Lucky numbers are 7 and 53.
 
It's a great day for getting through a lot of work, and you'll take pride in what you achieve. You may even be surprised at how much you're able to tackle today if you push yourself just that little bit harder than usual. If you're going to a meeting or interview you'll do very well, so there's no need to feel nervous. And if you're looking for another job you might hear about something that sounds as though it's got your name on it. Vibrant colours are taupe and peach. Lucky numbers are 39 and 11.
 
Someone has big ideas today. Very, very big ideas, once they get going. The burning question is whether these ideas have any foundation in fact or whether they're pie in the sky. Bear this in mind if someone tries to sell you their fantastic new project or they're doing their best to talk you into backing their plans. Even though they mean it at the time, it may all come to nothing. Insightful colours are aqua and jade. Lucky numbers are 6 and 2.
 
Someone is full of big ideas but are they talking sense? If you listen to them for long you'll start to believe what this person is telling you, which may or may not be a wise move. Wait a few days before making any decisions because you have a tendency to be overly optimistic right now, so you'll only see the pros of any argument and none of the cons. Beneficial colours are brass and copper. Lucky numbers are 36 and 75.
 
You have some great ideas today, especially where home and work are concerned, but are you sure they're all feasible? Right now it's easy to get carried away and imagine that you're capable of much more than you can really achieve, so try not to fall into the trap of thinking that you're Superman or Superwoman. Think big but don't go over the top. Beneficial colours are coffee and sea green. Lucky numbers are 12 and 4.
 
Be very wary about getting involved in any get-rich-quick schemes today, or anything else that apparently can't fail to bring you stacks of money. Even though it sounds great, unfortunately it will turn out to be empty promises and an expensive mistake, so keep your distance. You should also be careful if you're applying for a loan or mortgage because you could be persuaded to ask for more money than you really need. It will be great to have the spare cash but don't forget you'll be paying interest on it. Auspicious colours are golden honey and lilac. Lucky numbers are 3 and 77.
 
A friend or loved one is very entertaining today but you shouldn't believe everything they say. They aren't deliberately lying to you but they are embroidering the facts in order to make them more interesting. They're also being very idealistic about something they hope will come true, and you can't help wondering how they'll feel if their expectations are dashed, as they almost inevitably will be. Auspicious colours are caramel and dark grape. Lucky numbers are 8 and 6.
 
Someone's idea of what constitutes the truth is very different from yours today, as you'll soon discover when they start embroidering the facts or even making things up as they go along in order to tell a good story. This is all good fun and they probably don't mean to mislead you, but even so you shouldn't believe anything important in case it's untrue. Fortuitous colours are silvery blue and dark green. Lucky numbers are 24 and 26.
 
You'll hear about some big ideas and grand schemes today, but do you really believe in them? They may have more to do with wishful thinking or sloppy logic than with hard fact, and it's important that you tell the difference between the two in case you're asked to put your weight behind a plan that's little more than hot air. You may also encounter a friend who's full of wild exaggerations. Revealing colours are mulberry and aqua. Lucky numbers are 39 and 5.
 
A certain person appears to have lost their grip on the truth today, judging by some of the things they're saying. They exaggerate wildly or embroider stories until they bear no resemblance to the original facts. This is all very entertaining but take care that you aren't infected by the same bug, making you spin tall tales that someone might believe until they discover that you didn't mean a word of them. Fortunate colours are amethyst and avocado. Lucky numbers are 11 and 62.
 
Be very careful with financial dealings or spending money today because you could get carried away. Your brain is working overtime right now, filling you with ideas that may not necessarily have much to do with reality. As a result, you could talk yourself into believing things that are never really likely to come true. Bear that in mind if you're discussing budgets because you may take a very rosy view of how much you can afford to spend. Fortunate colours are caramel and cream. Lucky numbers are 21 and 72.
 
You have some great ideas and you're eager to share them with anyone who'll listen. You're at your most enthusiastic and adventurous right now, which is great, but try not to let your imagination run away with you. If that happens, you'll get caught up in schemes that could never see the light of day because they're far too ambitious or grandiose. So know your limitations! Insightful colours are marmalade and spring green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 62.
 
You need a pinch of salt when listening to a colleague or client today. They can't help exaggerating almost everything they say, probably to make it sound good or to attract everyone's attention. Watch out if you're sorting through lots of paperwork or filling in forms because you'll struggle to keep track of what you're doing after a while. You'll need several short breaks so you can regain your concentration. Beneficial colours are peacock blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 17 and 31.
 
It may not be your usual style, but you can't help being slightly slipshod and slapdash today. You're much more interested in the big picture than in little details, which could be a problem if that means you overlook something vital. If you're seeing a medical expert today you must be specific about what's wrong, otherwise you could mislead them in some way. Favourable colours are peach and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 40 and 44.
 
You've calmed down a lot after yesterday's fun and games, and you feel the need to apologize if you think you went over the top. When you've stopped grovelling you'll enjoy getting together with close friends for a chat or spending time on a favourite hobby. It's a gentle, easy-going day and you'll choose activities that reflect this mood. Auspicious colours are cobalt blue and russet. Lucky numbers are 10 and 4.
 
If you stepped out of line yesterday, apologize and make things better today. This could involve eating humble pie but you won't care as long as it does the trick. It's a great day for lending your support, whether financial or physical, to something that you consider to be a good cause. As far as you're concerned, it will be time and money well spent. Beneficial colours are nutmeg and primrose. Lucky numbers are 34 and 32.
 
If you've been wondering what to buy someone for a present, you'll spot the perfect gift today. You'll want to keep it a secret for the time being but don't worry because this will be surprisingly easy. You might even enjoy the secrecy as you smuggle the item into the house and then hide it somewhere. You're feeling generous but don't spend more money than you can afford. A heartfelt gesture means more than material values. Lucky colours are moonlight blue and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
It's a very lively and enjoyable day this Wednesday, and you'll enjoy pottering around doing whatever takes your fancy. Ideally, you should get out and about rather than stay stuck in one place for too long, even if all you can manage is a walk round the shops at lunchtime. Changes of scene will help to keep your brain active. Favourable colours are avocado and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 34 and 37.
 
Money really gets to you today, putting you in an intense mood where you take things far too seriously. You may also have a tendency to judge others by what they own, because right now you're equating money with power. So if someone has a lot of money you imagine that they've got a lot of clout too. If this describes you, try not to use it as an excuse to throw your weight around. Harmonious colours are violet and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 21 and 53.
 
Someone dear to your heart is in a very intense mood today, so they take everything much more seriously than usual. This is okay for a while, but it could wear you down when this person starts to sound like a broken record because there's only one thing they want to talk about. You might also be gripped by intense feelings, especially about the past, making you highly sensitive and on your guard. Harmonious colours are peach and aqua. Lucky numbers are 18 and 31.
 
Have you been neglecting your social life recently? If so, make up for it today by getting together with some of your favourite people. You don't have to do anything wildly exciting, because even meeting for a quick cup of coffee or a drink after work will help to cheer you up and make you feel that all's right with the world. Expansive colours are ebony and oyster. Lucky numbers are 34 and 3.
 
Your emotions take an intense and almost obsessive turn today, so be warned. Everything will feel more important than it usually does and you might even get worked up about things you normally take in your stride. Think about why this might be and try not to subject your nearest and dearest to a lot of unnecessary drama and upset. It will help to take some physical exercise, such as dancing or a good long walk. Beneficial colours are pearl and plum. Lucky numbers are 7 and 13.
 
You're feeling things with extra intensity this Wednesday. They've taken on additional meaning, whether that means they've made you extra happy or extra sad. Do your best to maintain an even keel, otherwise you could have a rather difficult day in which you feel tossed about on the stormy seas of emotion. Expressive colours are ruby red and cream. Lucky numbers are 21 and 41.
 
Talk to someone who comes from another country or culture. You'll be intrigued by their slant on life and could have a fascinating conversation as a result. What's more, sharing your experiences will make you both think and will help you to understand one another better. If you're wondering where to go for your next holiday, you could have a flash of inspiration now. Auspicious colours are bright red and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 2 and 73.
 
You need to relax and take life easy today, after yesterday's tantrums. Luckily you're feeling cheerful and gregarious, and you're also ready to say sorry if you think it's necessary. At some point, take a look around your home and see if there's scope for any improvements. They don't have to cost a bomb, either, so there's no need to get carried away and go over-budget. Lively colours are sunflower yellow and dazzling white. Lucky numbers are 38 and 59.
 
You have a big smile on your face and it's making you really popular. As a result, it would be a shame to keep yourself to yourself today unless there's no way round it. Get together with friends or close relatives, even if you're only having a chat in the street or meeting for a coffee at lunchtime. You could also hear some good news. Ideal colours are silvery grey and spring green. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
Yesterday you were easily intimidated but it's a very different story today. You're full of confidence and you want everyone to know it. Try not to let this go to your head because that will make you bombastic and difficult to be around. Yes, it's a good day to find the courage to say what you want, but you must know where to draw the line otherwise you'll come across as someone who's far too demanding for comfort. Ideal colours are brass and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 19 and 24.
 
Tempers run high today, creating a tense and combative atmosphere. Anything connected with money and sex is likely to set you off, and it won't help if either you or your partner is the jealous type. You may also be feeling impatient with a loved one and wishing they were more like you. Well, they aren't and that's just the way things are. Revealing colours are blackberry and cherry pink. Lucky numbers are 26 and 13.
 
Even the best laid plans have a habit of going pear-shaped this Tuesday, so be warned. Ideally, you should be flexible and take things as they come, because you'll tie yourself in knots if you try to keep to a strict schedule or you're reliant on technology to see you through the day. You may also have to cope with a partner or relative who seems determined to wind you up. Auspicious colours are mother of pearl and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 18.
 
The very thought of being told what to do is enough to make you rebel and stand up for yourself today. And the trouble is that this will land you in hot water if you start to argue with someone important or powerful, such as your boss or the taxman. You may also have qualms about arguing with a parent or other older relative, even though you'd like to scream your head off at them. Fortunate colours are pastel green and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 22 and 77.
 
Memories keep flooding through your mind, Capricorn. Ideally, you should have some time to yourself so you can mull over your memories, or discuss them with someone who understands what you're going through. If you've hoarded lots of keepsakes and mementos over the years, this is a great day for looking through them and reminding yourself about what they signify. Fortunate colours are shimmering gold and violet. Lucky numbers are 24 and 77.
 
You're all set for a great time this Tuesday. You're feeling positive and upbeat, which rubs off on everyone else so you all end up having a laugh and enjoying yourselves. If you haven't heard from someone in a while, give them a ring, send them an email or write them a letter so you can keep in touch. You might also arrange some enjoyable travel plans at some point today. Positive colours are ginger and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 18 and 51.
 
You're in a very communicative mood, and you'll especially enjoy discussing ideas that have depth. You'll like getting to the heart of the matter and pinpointing your exact emotions, whether you do this in the company of a good friend or you confide your thoughts to your diary. What's important is to acknowledge how you're feeling. Auspicious colours are amethyst and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 29 and 70.
 
Are you inspired to put your feelings into words? It's a very good day for writing down your thoughts, whether it's in your diary and intended for your eyes only, or in an email to a friend. You'll also enjoy talking about your feelings to people who understand, or simply having a long natter with a friend in which you exchange news and also manage to fit in a lot of gossip. Energising colours are jade and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
Someone is being rebellious and their mood will quickly rub off on you if you let it, Gemini. You'll soon start to become agitated, and also to feel as though your nerves are on edge. Try not to take on this person's problems, especially if you'll get all churned up as a result. Ideally, you should keep active so you can burn off your nervous energy through some physical exercise. Empowering colours are shimmering gold and russet. Lucky numbers are 38 and 14.
 
Someone's in a tearing hurry today and it's putting them in a filthy mood. The trouble is that they expect everyone else to keep up with their own hectic pace, which isn't exactly easy or fair. There's a strong chance that you're the person who's trying to beat the clock all the time, in which case you'll get really annoyed with members of the family who slow you down or can't seem to get moving. Give them a chance! Prosperous colours are moonlight blue and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 40 and 34.
 
You're full of curiosity about the world, making it the ideal day to track down some facts and figures. If you visit a bookshop you might not leave until you've bought half the stock, or you could have a lovely browse in your local library. Anything with a spiritual, educational, religious, legal or international slant is especially appealing to you today. Uplifting colours are marzipan and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 7 and 22.
 
You manage to chat and butter up anyone you come into contact with today, which is no mean feat. It's great if you've got to sweet talk someone into seeing things from your point of view because you'll have no problems at all. It's not that you'll bully them into submission, merely that you'll put across your opinion in an articulate and rational manner. Prosperous colours are ginger and sage green. Lucky numbers are 18 and 13.
 
You don't have as much energy as usual this Monday, which is likely to do with the state of your emotions. Maybe you're feeling sad or confused about something and it's colouring your entire day. Take care that you don't subtly undermine yourself by saying or doing things that show you in a bad light or sabotage all your efforts. It's a tricky day so take it gently. Energising colours are bright purple and bright red. Lucky numbers are 11 and 69.
 
You can learn something new today and it doesn't have to be in a classroom, either. All you need to do is to keep your mind open and get ready to be informed. You might learn something interesting from a friend, a television programme or a newspaper article. This is also a good day for buying a reference or non-fiction book. Positive colours are white and navy. Lucky numbers are 5 and 47.
 
Be prepared to give someone some valuable emotional support today. That might involve listening to them talk to you, giving them some advice or simply being there when they need you. If you're in a long-term relationship you'll probably know how easy it is to take one another for granted every now and then, but today is a great opportunity to show your partner how much you appreciate them. Practical colours are lilac and russet. Lucky numbers are 18 and 24.
 
Make the most of your creative abilities today. You'll enjoy turning them into reality, whether that means making a special effort with the cooking or creating a masterpiece with your paints and paintbrushes. If you can't tell your Matisse from your Mozart, give your support and encouragement to someone who can. They'll appreciate being given a pat on the back. Creative colours are mud and spring green. Lucky numbers are 39 and 4.
 
You take pride in your work today, so you'll happily pull out the stops whenever you think it's necessary. You're not only keen to get the praise and approval that you think you deserve for all your efforts, you'll also enjoy the satisfaction that comes from a job well done. If you've been waiting for the right time to discuss a financial matter with someone, today might be a good opportunity to speak up. Ideal colours are terracotta and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 27.
 
Focus on activities that increase your sense of emotional security. That might be anything from arranging an insurance policy to putting some spare money in a savings account, or talking about your innermost feelings to someone you trust. It's a good day for being with someone you care about and valuing the time you're able to spend together. Sensitive colours are warm blonde and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 10 and 45.
 
Look after yourself today Taurus, because you're easily put off your stroke. That might be because you have a nagging feeling that you're on the wrong track or you aren't doing something properly, or it could be because someone is subtly undermining you and making you doubt yourself. This is a day for taking a back seat, provided that you can do so without incurring further problems. Stabilising colours are dark pink and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 40 and 65.
 
Life has certainly had its ups and downs lately but today you're on a nice, even keel. Make the most of it by catching up with jobs that have had to take a back seat recently, and by making contact with anyone you haven't spoken to lately. If you're in the middle of making plans for the future this is a good day for jotting down the ideas you've had so far or for asking the advice of someone you trust. Fortunate colours are vanilla and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 11 and 8.
 
Take care of yourself if you're mixing with anyone who's high- powered or who has a massive ego because they could easily put you down or make you feel like an idiot. Whether they actually undermine you, or you simply think they do, is a moot point, but it's definitely not a good day for you to mix with people who make you feel inferior at the best of times. Spend some time by yourself today until you feel more confident. Fortunate colours are mushroom and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 34.
 
Someone is being awfully vague today. Is this deliberate, perhaps because they're trying to keep something from you, or is it simply because their mind is on other things? You should certainly be careful about who you trust right now, especially if money is involved, because there's a chance that someone might try to take advantage of your good nature. Watch out! Favourable colours are mulberry and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 28 and 6.
 
You're in a very constructive and practical frame of mind today, so make the most of it. It's great for making plans connected with travel or a celebration, as you'll want to concentrate on the details in order to make the whole thing a complete success. There's no danger of you glossing over important facts simply because they're too boring. Right now, you see them as a challenge to be surmounted. Positive colours are cream and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 34.
 
You must admit that there are times when you're quite scatterbrained, but this isn't one of them Gemini. Instead, you're in a highly practical and rational mood, and you'll excel at getting to grips with mundane tasks and chores. It will be a source of great satisfaction to look at all the things you've achieved today, such as paying bills, doing some filing and simply being efficient. Dynamic colours are fire engine and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 30.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse throws light on your health during the coming weeks and highlights any problems. Arrange a check-up with your doctor or dentist if it's overdue, or consider how you can give up a habit that may be harming your health, such as smoking. Act now, while the energy of the Full Moon can spur you on. Creative colours are mango and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 2.
 
Your domestic and family life is highlighted by today's Lunar Eclipse. During the next few weeks you may have to make some important decisions about this area of your life, possibly putting you on the spot or making you feel stressed out. If you've been wondering whether to move house, that decision may be taken out of your hands in no uncertain terms. Beneficial colours are hazelnut and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 49 and 22.
 
Are you feeling worried about something? Is it preying on your mind, possibly even causing you sleepless nights? Then it's time you did something about it, and today's lunar eclipse will act as the catalyst. You'll discover that you've been spending a huge amount of energy on controlling your fears and that it's a great relief to finally face up to them. In fact, the experience will be strangely liberating. Beneficial colours are golden honey and basalt. Lucky numbers are 13 and 44.
 
Friends will be in the spotlight during the next few weeks, thanks to today's Lunar Eclipse. You may have to sort out the problems in a current friendship, whether that means saying goodbye to one another or agreeing to put your differences behind you. It's also a good time to think about your long-term hopes and wishes, and to check that they're still what you want. Fortunate colours are salmon pink and bronze. Lucky numbers are 34 and 4.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse will highlight the way you communicate with others during the next few weeks. You might have to change the way you deal with a certain person if you aren't getting very far with your current strategy, or you could get the chance to resolve your differences with someone you see on a regular basis. It will also be a good time to finalize an agreement or finish some negotiations. Fortunate colours are scarlet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 38 and 46.
 
A Lunar Eclipse is always significant and today's will usher in some great opportunities for you during the next few weeks. Go travelling or to improve your education in some way. But you'll also have to wrestle with your conscience, especially on such difficult topics as politics, religion, spirituality or the environment. Ideal colours are spearmint and jet black. Lucky numbers are 37 and 18.
 
You need to get to grips with your finances during the coming fortnight, especially if you've let them slide recently. Maybe you should apply for a credit card with a lower rate of interest, look for a better mortgage deal or talk to a financial expert about making your money work better for you. A few clever moves now will save you a stack of money during the rest of 2005. Prosperous colours are pale gold and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 20 and 71.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse will have a dramatic impact on your life during the next few weeks. You might even make a once-in-a-lifetime decision about something really important, especially if your birthday falls on 26, 27 or 28 October. But whichever day is your birthday, this Full Moon is encouraging you to eliminate from your life anything that's no longer fulfilling its function and which is holding you back in some way. Beneficial colours are ginger and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 9 and 21.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse will have a big impact on your love life during the next few weeks. This might be when a love affair turns into a serious commitment, as you decide that you want to spend the rest of your lives together. Alternatively, there could be problems between you and your beloved, in which case you need to sort them out without behaving as though this is the worst crisis in the entire history of the world. Exciting colours are dark purple and fiery red. Lucky numbers are 6 and 43.
 
The Lunar Eclipse will force you to reassess your finances and values during the next few weeks, as well as some of the things you've taken for granted recently. If you've been overspending this will be a great opportunity to start cutting back on your expenses, even if it is hard to do this at first. Favourable colours are platinum and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 32 and 51.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse will have a dramatic impact on your relationships during the next two weeks. Although it will bring problems to the surface it will also help you to resolve them, provided that you can stay calm and keep things in their proper perspective. This will also be a good time to take a partnership to a new level of commitment. Inspirational colours are burgundy and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 40 and 51.
 
Today's Lunar Eclipse will have a dramatic impact on your career and long-term goals during the next few weeks. This might be when you realize that a particular plan is not working out and that it's about time you stopped wasting your time on it and started again from scratch. If you've been working really hard, this might be when you finally get the recognition you deserve. If so, it will be heady stuff. Fortunate colours are burgundy and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 8 and 47.
 
You're intrigued by people who are a little bit different today, and you're not interested in talking to anyone who's a stick-in- the-mud, or who's wedded to their boring habits. You're strongly attracted to someone who's unusual, simply because they're a breath of fresh air. Do you plan to take this any further or is it just a bit of fun? You may not know at this stage! Beneficial colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 16 and 28.
 
The shops are calling, but not just any old shops. Today, you're attracted by places that are very high-tech, contemporary, luxurious and expensive. If you're looking for items for your home, you'll want to experiment a little and certainly won't go for the traditional look unless it's a wild departure from your usual style. Frankly, there's no knowing what you'll get up to today but you'll enjoy it, whatever it is. Adventurous colours are magenta and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 4 and 2.
 
You have tremendous willpower today, enabling you to achieve almost anything you set out to do. But you must use this wisely, and without taking advantage of other people, otherwise you'll get a taste of your own medicine sooner or later. It's a really good day for working with others who share your view of the world. Fortunate colours are peach and dark red. Lucky numbers are 36 and 59.
 
A certain person is quite persuasive today, which is fine if they have your best interests at heart. It's a wonderful day for being with some of your favourite people because there's a strong bond between you and you'll have a lot of fun together. It's also great for working as part of a team. You'll struggle to make much progress but what you do achieve will be quite something. Fortunate colours are apricot and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 14.
 
This is a fantastic day for working as part of a team towards a shared goal or objective. It could be as simple as talking to your beloved and agreeing on what you're going to do this weekend or making plans for a forthcoming trip. If you want to have a conversation about where your relationship is heading, this is a great day to do it provided that you don't force any issues or make unreasonable demands. If you do, your chickens will come home to roost later in the year. Energising colours are gold and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 40 and 25.
 
You love doing things on the spur of the moment today. Even if you're a typical Cancerian who likes tradition and is usually wary of surprises, right now you're in a spontaneous and free-spirited mood. If you're single, you could bump into someone who sets your heart racing even if they aren't your usual type. Is something going to come of this chance encounter? Ideal colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 40 and 39.
 
There's a lot you can achieve if you put your mind to it today, especially if you're prepared to push yourself a little bit further than usual. You're quite persuasive when it comes to talking to other people, so don't be surprised if they agree to your suggestions without you having to say very much. But don't push your luck and try to dominate or bully anyone, because that will inevitably lead to trouble sooner or later. Wonderful colours are apricot and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 51.
 
You're in the mood to mix with people who are that little bit offbeat today. They're slightly eccentric or they have an unusual job, which makes them interesting to talk to. If you meet someone for the first time today you'll be dazzled by them and will want to see them again, even if you're already involved with someone else. Will this flirtation last or is it just a delicious fantasy? Inspirational colours are champagne and lavender. Lucky numbers are 36 and 5.
 
You have a tremendous ability to get your point across today, although you may not realize how very effective you're being. For this reason it's a good idea to underplay things rather than to make a big song and dance about them. You'll have a particular impact when dealing with anyone connected with finance or officialdom. Ideal colours are mango and avocado. Lucky numbers are 23 and 17.
 
You're capable of making some important changes to a relationship today, but only if everyone concerned is in agreement about them. You certainly shouldn't try to persuade people to do things against their will, or to trick them in some way. It's one of those days when teamwork can move mountains, so don't underestimate its power. Harmonious colours are magenta and black. Lucky numbers are 34 and 54.
 
Try to mix with people who are that little bit different today. You'll be enchanted by them and they'll help to take you out of yourself. It doesn't matter whether you already know them or you're meeting them for the first time today because the effect they have on you will be the same. If you feel like a mini adventure you'll love visiting somewhere you've never been to before. Maybe you could turn this trip into a weekend break? Positive colours are dark purple and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 36 and 15.
 
A little willpower goes a long way today, as you'll discover. It's a great opportunity to examine your goals and to do your best to achieve them, even if that means slightly adjusting your original game- plan. It will be far better to ditch any plans that aren't working out than to cling to them regardless of their lack of success. Fortunate colours are apricot and cherry blossom. Lucky numbers are 2 and 16.
 
You have such a strong eye for detail today that you don't know when to stop, and could easily get bogged down in minor considerations and tiny problems that assume massive proportions. This is particularly likely when you're handling financial matters, unless you can have plenty of breaks in which to clear your head and have a breather. Favourable colours are pale gold and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 35.
 
This is a fantastic day for talking about your emotions, provided that you can put the way you're feeling into words. If you can't, it might help to express yourself creatively or artistically instead. However, you aren't thinking very rationally at the moment, as certain people may want to point out when your conversation reveals the turbulent state of your emotions. Dazzling colours are silvery blue and fawn. Lucky numbers are 28 and 34.
 
Beware the lure of the biscuit tin or the wine bottle! Yes, it's one of those days when your willpower is non-existent and you'd be tempted to sell your grandmother for the price of a cappuccino and a Danish pastry. If you're supposed to be counting the calories it may be better to give yourself a mini treat than to hold out and then finally cave in with an orgy of gorging. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 70.
 
Someone's in a very expansive and gregarious mood this Friday, making them fantastic company. This person might be a neighbour, close relative or someone else you see on a regular basis. It's a good day for getting involved in a local activity but make sure you don't get carried away and volunteer your services for more things than you have time for. It will be embarrassing to have to pull out at a later date. Ideal colours are burgundy and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 6 and 61.
 
Logic seems to have deserted you today, leaving you in the grip of imaginative fancies and wild leaps of the imagination. All you can do is wait for them to return to normal, and also to avoid making the situation any worse by saying things that are calculated to wind them up or make them worried. It may also help to make yourself scarce for a short while. Calming colours are pale pink and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 20 and 54.
 
A certain someone is being more than generous. They're doing everything right and you're really grateful to them. In fact, all your relationships go well now, especially if they involve any form of teamwork, because you'll do your best to co-operate and be helpful. However, don't make any promises that you can't keep, even if they seem like a good idea at the time. Beneficial colours are dusky pink and navy. Lucky numbers are 7 and 26.
 
You feel as though you're drowning in red tape and officialdom today. Take things gently if you've got to fill in a complicated form or deal with someone in authority because you could quickly get into a bit of a flap and then tie yourself in knots. Try to keep track of important details but don't let them assume too much importance. It's a bit of a balancing act but you'll manage. Harmonious colours are copper and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 11 and 30.
 
Watch out if you're going shopping with your other half today, as you could end up spending a lot more money than you expected. It doesn't matter, of course, if you've got bags of cash to splash around but it could knock a big hole in your monthly budget if you're supposed to be on a major economy drive. Favourable colours are navy and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 13 and 48.
 
Take it easy or you'll get bogged down in silly details today. You have too much on your plate, making it difficult for you to decide what you should do first. It doesn't help that your emotions are threatening to overwhelm you, so you feel on the verge of tears or tantrums at any moment. What's really wrong? If necessary, spend some time alone trying to work it all out. Soothing colours are sepia and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 22 and 19.
 
It's another day when your feelings threaten to take over, making you very subjective and only able to see things from your own point of view. This will lead to difficulties with loved ones who, not surprisingly, can't understand your tunnel vision. It won't help to be sharp-tongued or quarrelsome, because they'll feel they can't talk to you without getting their heads bitten off. Calm down! Calming colours are almond and ivory. Lucky numbers are 11 and 18.
 
A little adventure wouldn't go amiss today, even if it's very modest. You're in the mood to break out from your usual routine and do something different, especially if it takes you to a new location or involves lots of excitement. If you're going on a long journey today you'll enjoy the entire trip, including travelling there and back. Liberating colours are silvery grey and golden yellow. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
Home comforts are right up your street today, Cancer. You long to relax in familiar surroundings, preferably with plenty of food and loved ones on hand. If you live alone, how about inviting someone over to your place for a meal? You'll enjoy cooking the food and putting your guest at their ease. If you're supposed to be on a diet at the moment, watch your willpower because it isn't as strong as usual. Soothing colours are lemon and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 66.
 
This is the perfect day to be practical, organized and industrious. So how can you achieve this? Well, you could begin by making a list of everything you have to do today, putting them in their order of priority, and then starting with whatever is most urgent. The feeling of satisfaction as you work your way down the list will be quite something. Ideal colours are ebony and ivory. Lucky numbers are 32 and 49.
 
You're at your practical best today, so make the most of it, Cancer. If you don't have anything specific to do this Thursday, catch up with lots of chores and get yourself organized. If you go shopping you'll have a good eye for a bargain and won't want to waste your time or your money on items that don't appeal to you. It's also a good day for writing letters and emails. Ideal colours are copper and violet. Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
 
If you went overboard yesterday, you should work out exactly what the damage was today. So don't chuck away all those credit or debit card receipts without looking at them - add up how much you've spent so you can adjust your monthly budget if necessary. You'll appreciate having some time to yourself this Thursday and you'll also enjoy concentrating on some of your top priorities in life. Stable colours are ultramarine and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 11 and 74.
 
Someone thinks they know what's best for you and they're determined to tell you so. And you're bound to disagree, in addition to feeling annoyed that they've got the presumption to interfere in your life in this way. Try to calm down, otherwise you'll blow the whole incident out of all proportion. It simply isn't worth getting yourself into such a state. Dynamic colours are maroon and ivory. Lucky numbers are 26 and 63.
 
This hasn't been an easy month so far and today you have to cope with intense emotions that threaten to get the better of you. Memories are very vivid at the moment, swamping you with emotion and putting you on the defensive. The trouble is that you're reacting as though painful episodes from your past are happening to you right now. You may also be feeling rather resentful and bitter, which won't help. Fortunate colours are bronze and dark red. Lucky numbers are 39 and 32.
 
Ideally, you should lock yourself away for a short spell because you'll really appreciate having some time to yourself. A little solitude is especially important if you're working hard on a project that's intended to improve your profile or boost your reputation, because you'll be at your best when you're left to your own devices. You certainly don't want anyone interfering or chattering to you. Auspicious colours are butterscotch and magenta. Lucky numbers are 34 and 61.
 
If you want a nice, quiet day you should do your best to keep money and friends as far apart as possible today. That's because someone may get very bossy and dictatorial about how other people spend their money, perhaps telling them that they're spendthrifts or stupid for buying what they do. There could also be a battle of wills over how much a forthcoming social event, such as an evening out, should cost. Inspirational colours are amber and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 38 and 17.
 
A loved one has your best interests at heart, but they have a funny way of showing it! In order to make you do what they want, they're using emotional blackmail and are dropping not-so-subtle hints. Try to handle the situation with humour and compassion, while making it clear that you aren't going to let them control you like this. Active colours are dark green and silver. Lucky numbers are 29 and 62.
 
Take care, because it's so easy to get all churned up and emotional today. Once that happens, your emotions will take control of you. You're gripped by intense feelings, making it difficult to be objective or rational. Watch out if you're in the limelight, because the pressure could get to you, sparking off a sulky outburst or an embarrassing display of temperament. Lucky colours are burnt umber and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 12 and 70.
 
You're in a very constructive mood today, which is great for getting things done. So get going! If you need some help or advice, don't be afraid to ask for it, and as a result it will be difficult for you to go wrong. If it's been a long time since you had an enjoyable break, make plans to go away soon, whether it's a weekend trip or a proper holiday. Expansive colours are dark gold and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 11 and 54.
 
Someone dear to your heart gives you plenty of emotional support today, much to your delight. They may not even do this in very obvious ways, but might simply be around when you need them or bring you a cup of tea at exactly the right moment. Try to return the favour, whether you do it today or in the future. It's also a good day for having a serious but loving chat with a child. Practical colours are raspberry and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 33 and 8.
 
This is a fantastic day for getting on with lots of work, especially if you're aware that someone is watching you with their beady eyes. You want to give them a good impression and you're only concerned with your own sense of satisfaction but, either way, you'll certainly keep your nose to the grindstone until you've achieved everything you set out to do. Empowering colours are violet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 28 and 10.
 
People are being unpredictable and you don't like it. It's the sort of behaviour that makes you uncomfortable, and you may even tell yourself that they're doing it on purpose to annoy or unsettle you. They aren't, of course, and they may not even realize how much they're upsetting you by chopping and changing their minds every two minutes. Relax and let them get on with it. Favourable colours are saffron and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 5 and 76.
 
You might think that nothing can go wrong with routine activities, but you're about to discover that this isn't always true. Yes, it's one of those days when things don't turn out the way you were expecting, even if you're doing something that's such a habit you could almost do it in your sleep. Machinery and technological equipment might also let you down, much to your dismay. Ideal colours are scarlet and ivory. Lucky numbers are 31 and 23.
 
If you're a typical Capricorn, you enjoy tradition, because it means you know where you are. But today you long to break out and do something completely different, especially if it raises a few eyebrows. You don't want to shock anyone rigid, but you don't want to come across as completely predictable either. So try to be a free spirit whenever possible and do things on the spur of the moment whenever you get the chance. Exciting colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
You long to assert your individuality today, especially when faced with someone who wants you to keep up appearances or follow tradition simply for the sake of it. Right now, you're gripped by the urge to turn your back on the past and to ignore convention, and the more restrictive such things feel the more determined you'll be to go your own way. You might cause quite a stir. Expressive colours are caramel and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 5.
 
Mind how you go because you're rather accident-prone right now. You might drop something precious (and let's hope it doesn't land on your foot) or not look where you're going. A busy schedule will also mean that you're distracted and likely to lose your concentration at the vital moment, so take care. It will be very annoying if you delete an important file from your computer. Favourable colours are avocado and bronze. Lucky numbers are 15 and 47.
 
It's one of those days when you find it hard to settle down for long, because you're feeling restless and you're easily bored. You'll also quickly get fed up with people who are very predictable or who have only one topic of conversation which you've heard so often you could almost say the words with them. Ideally, you should do something totally spontaneous and slightly madcap. Fortuitous colours are kiwifruit and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 30 and 71.
 
You're in a restless mood today, making it difficult to settle down to anything for long. This unsettled atmosphere will make you feel edgy and ratty, so once again there could be some raised voices before the day's over. Try to pre-empt this by abandoning your usual routine and doing something totally different or spontaneous for a change. But the more rigid your day's schedule is, the more agitated and discontented you'll feel. Soothing colours are lavender and crimson. Lucky numbers are 3 and 63.
 
The merest suggestion of constraints, rules and regulations is enough to make you want to rebel in the most dramatic way you can think of. You refuse to be tied down or restricted in any way, which is fine if you've got the luxury of being able to do your own thing. However, it isn't such good news if your job depends on toeing the line and doing what you're told. You'll have to find less controversial and destructive ways of letting off steam. Dynamic colours are burnished brass and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 10 and 19.
 
Keep a firm grip on your money today, because it's one of those expensive days when you're easily bored and want to spend your way out of trouble. It's all very well if you're only buying yourself something inexpensive, such as a magazine or cup of coffee, but will be you able to stop there? One thing leads to another, as you continue to look for financial ways of keeping yourself entertained. Beneficial colours are spring green and brass. Lucky numbers are 3 and 33.
 
Boredom can lead to an awful lot of financial trouble today, so watch out. You've got a short attention span this Wednesday, making it hard to focus on anything for long, and sooner or later you'll decide to liven things up by spending some money. The trouble is that you'll buy all sorts of items that aren't really useful or suitable, and which may even be a total waste of your cash. Favourable colours are apple blossom and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 30 and 53.
 
Much as you love someone, they have a knack of rubbing you up the wrong way and getting on your nerves today. They're also determined to do their own thing and assert their independence, even if it's really inconvenient for everyone else. If you get really annoyed with them for this, it may be because you'd secretly love to follow their example and be less concerned about what people think of you. Is that really so impossible, Scorpio? Opportune colours are dusky rose and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 34 and 58.
 
Someone is being unpredictable and difficult today, so be warned! Happily, this disruptive mood will soon pass but in the meantime you'll have to cope with someone who seems to be going out of their way to be unruly, rebellious or totally contrary. Or are you the person who fits this description? If so, ask yourself what the point is that you're trying to make and whether there are more constructive ways to go about it. Soothing colours are fawn and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 38 and 9.
 
Things have been a bit dicey between you and certain people lately, but today you can put it all behind you and be friends again. You may have to eat a little humble pie first, of course, but that's a small price to pay for restoring the peace. Any sort of social occasion will go really well now, and you'll be one of the stars. Ideal colours are champagne and aqua. Lucky numbers are 33 and 73.
 
You embark on a much more positive and cheerful phase from today, which is a relief if you've been having rather a hard time of it lately. This is your opportunity to concentrate on yourself for a change, especially if that means launching new projects. Taking the initiative will give you a new lease of life and will also fill you with fresh hope for the future. Beneficial colours are amethyst and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 20 and 74.
 
During the next four weeks you'll feel far happier when you're with other people than when you're by yourself. That's because the company of others will encourage you to express your true self, whatever and whoever that is. It will be a great time to be part of a team, whether on a permanent basis or only as a temporary measure. Even if you usually love your own company it won't be nearly as much fun as normal between now and late May. Ideal colours are pale gold and sable. Lucky numbers are 10 and 17.
 
Hobbies, spare-time activities and group gatherings are all in the Stars during the next four weeks. Yes, it's time to relax a little by doing things that you enjoy and which aren't angled at putting you ahead of the game. It will be a great chance to broaden your interests if they've got rather small recently, so don't be afraid to try something totally new. You might love it! Auspicious colours are lime and lilac. Lucky numbers are 35 and 23.
 
Life is pretty good because you're feeling relaxed and sociable. You're also interested in talking to people as individuals, so right now you aren't interested in whether they fit into the right social class or if their skin is a colour you're comfortable with. You can see beyond all that and want to know what makes them tick. Beneficial colours are white satin and aqua. Lucky numbers are 8 and 33.
 
Your current need to be surrounded by familiar faces and places, becomes even stronger from today and will remain so for the next four weeks. This may not be your usual style but right now you need to reconnect with your roots and to spend more time with people who've known you since you were so-high. You might even contemplate literally walking down memory lane by revisiting some of your old haunts. Better take a hankie with you, just in case. Fabulous colours are burgundy and purple. Lucky numbers are 21 and 12.
 
Luck is all around you this Tuesday so don't let it slip through your fingers. Maybe you should enter a competition or buy a lottery ticket, just in case? It's also a brilliant day for any form of travel. Not only will you enjoy the journey but you'll like the destination as well. If the thought of holidays is too tempting to ignore, enjoy deciding where you're going to go and then booking it up. Inspirational colours are smoky quartz and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 38 and 45.
 
If you feel you've been through the mill recently, you can heave a huge sigh of relief today because things are starting to improve. The emotional tension is beginning to disappear and you're getting in the mood to have some fun. And this happy state of affairs will last for the next four weeks, so there's plenty of time to enjoy yourself and welcome lots of love and laughter into your life. Exuberant colours are blonde and mango. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
 
You need all the breaks you can get at the moment, thanks to the bad-tempered atmosphere that's been surrounding you over the past couple of days, but some good fortune arrives at your door today. You'll be offered some great opportunities during the next four weeks, and some of these could involve travel or further education. Take advantage of every chance that comes your way because you may not get a second bite of the cherry. Auspicious colours are lime and coffee. Lucky numbers are 2 and 77.
 
You're quite something today! You're sexy, attractive and full of personality, so don't be surprised if more than one person falls under your spell. How can they resist, when you're like this? If you've only got eyes for you-know-who, make sure that they know all about it. It's the perfect day for wooing your one true love all over again, even if you've been together for years and years. Fortunate colours are blueberry and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 56.
 
For the next four weeks, the planets give you a chance to catch your breath and recharge your batteries, and probably the easiest way for you to do this is to retire from the limelight every now and then. You may choose to spend more time by yourself than usual, or opt for evenings in rather than nights out on the town. Don't be surprised if you feel shy or hesitant at times. Dynamic colours are shimmering gold and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 19.
 
Your social life is starting to liven up, which promises much during the next four weeks. It's a great excuse to catch up with people you haven't seen in a while, and also to take off on lots of short journeys and day trips. Maybe you could even manage a weekend away if it will be several months before your next holiday? The change of scene will do you good. Fortunate colours are caramel and silver. Lucky numbers are 12 and 9.
 
Someone is being very impatient and hasty, making them want to rush into situations without thinking them through. Make sure that you don't behave in the same way because it could quickly lead to rash actions that you'll regret once you've calmed down. Be especially careful when driving, and don't be tempted to go above the speed limit. Stabilising colours are aqua and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 13 and 41.
 
Feeling irritable? You're trying to cram too many activities into too short a time span, especially if you're supposed to be meeting a tight deadline or your boss is breathing down your neck. The trick is to calm down and take things in their order of priority. Otherwise, you'll become all fingers and thumbs, and you'll switch from one task to the next without finishing anything properly. Empowering colours are russet and mauve. Lucky numbers are 19 and 19.
 
Someone's on the warpath today, making it uncomfortable to be around them. They're snappier than the most bad-tempered terrier, taking everything you say the wrong way. Ideally, you should give them a wide berth until they've calmed down, but what if you're the person who's having hissy-fits left, right and centre? If this is you, direct your anger at the person who deserves it and stop lashing out at innocent bystanders. Positive colours are cream and toffee. Lucky numbers are 9 and 19.
 
Either you, or someone close to you is breathing fire today. You're really angry with your partner and you can't help showing it, or perhaps you're being a lot more provocative and confrontational than you imagine and you're goading your partner into losing their temper. Try to thrash out what's really wrong otherwise you'll spend the entire day snapping and shouting at each other, which will be tiring to say the least. Harmonious colours are chocolate and banana. Lucky numbers are 3 and 6.
 
Someone's on the warpath this Monday, which isn't a great start to the week. What's wrong with them, anyway? Are they simply in a bad mood and trying to take it out on you, or do you have something to do with their reasons for feeling angry? You should also watch your own mood because you're in a hurry and this will make you rather ratty and short- tempered. Hey ho. Favourable colours are gold and black. Lucky numbers are 21 and 16.
 
The more of a hurry you're in today, the more of a flap you'll be in as well, Capricorn. It's one of those days when you're easily annoyed, especially when you take things seriously or things that mean a lot to you are threatened. You may even lose your sense of humour for a while, which is a shame because it's often your best friend. Try to keep calm when handling money because that really will wind you up a treat if you let it. Light colours are pastel blue and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 7 and 32.
 
The fur is flying again today, just when you thought things had simmered down a little. Today, someone's feeling upset because they aren't very well, they're worried about something or they've got too much work to do. It doesn't help that either you or this other person has one eye on the clock most of the time and is feeling impatient with anyone who can't keep up the hectic pace. Beneficial colours are bright yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 27 and 67.
 
It's one of those days when you don't have as much energy as you'd like, and you feel as if you're wading through treacle. Try to conserve your energy whenever possible, otherwise you'll have nothing in reserve if you should really need it. Try to keep away from any drink or food that doesn't suit you because it might really knock you for six right now. Healing colours are peach and aqua. Lucky numbers are 14 and 57.
 
It's awfully difficult to control your temper today. At times you'll feel as though you've been pushed beyond the limits of endurance by certain people, perhaps because they seem to expect you to jump through hoops whenever they so much as raise a finger. Have your say and then shut up. This will be a much more effective response than continually sniping or moaning. Harmonious colours are platinum and apricot. Lucky numbers are 25 and 60.
 
Someone is in a tearing hurry today, making them really impatient with other people can't keep up with them. Take care if this describes you because if you carry on like this you'll end up feeling like a piece of chewed string. You might also become slightly accident-prone simply because you're trying to do too much in too short a space of time. Auspicious colours are golden topaz and yellow ochre. Lucky numbers are 14 and 4.
 
Money is a sore point today. It's also an opportunity for someone to lose their temper and create a stink. Try not to be the one who sets everyone off, unless there really is no other way to get your point across. It won't help if there's a sense of urgency about a financial matter, such as you wondering whether a bill payment will reach its destination in time. Beneficial colours are bronze and sable. Lucky numbers are 26 and 17.
 
It's one of those days when you have to mind your Ps and Qs to avoid getting into trouble with a certain person. Maybe they're operating on a very short fuse or perhaps you're being rather argumentative, but you could soon fall out with each other unless you can both keep your sense of humour. Getting some exercise will help, as will a change of scene. Auspicious colours are sunflower yellow and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 17 and 49.
 
This is a fabulous day for buying things for your home, family or garden. You don't have to spend a fortune in the process although you'll certainly enjoy splashing your cash around if you have it. If you're doing some cooking you'll probably prepare far more food than you need, but you'll enjoy eating it all up unless you can be really strong-willed and hide the leftovers in the fridge. Opportune colours are salmon pink and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 27 and 26.
 
Someone needs a pep talk today, and you're exactly the right person to give it to them. You don't have to go over the top or give them a lecture, but simply boost their morale and renew their self-confidence. Even a few words of encouragement will make a big difference to this person's mood, so don't underestimate the impact that your words can have on them. Fortunate colours are ivory and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 30 and 24.
 
This is a wonderful day for devoting yourself to the love and care of some of your loved ones. You might be inspired to invite some of the family over for a big Sunday lunch in which you give them a treat by cooking their favourite food. Alternatively, you might enjoy pottering about at home, making a few improvements or dreaming up a redecorating scheme. Ideal colours are ginger and lavender. Lucky numbers are 9 and 16.
 
Do yourself a favour and give your mind some exercise. Disappear with the Sunday papers, watch a current affairs programme or get involved in a wide-ranging discussion. You'll also enjoy playing with children, especially if you all do something frivolous. And if you've got time after all that, you'll enjoy having a good chat with a loved one. Beneficial colours are burnt orange and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 18 and 3.
 
Try to smooth things over after yesterday's outbursts, because you have quite a way with you today. Ideally, you should talk about your innermost feelings and let others do the same. If you hear a confidence, make sure you can keep it. You certainly shouldn't try to remember it so you can pass it on to someone else later on. Empowering colours are lilac and opal. Lucky numbers are 29 and 40.
 
You're in a convivial mood today, making it easy for you to get on well with everybody. It won't really matter if they're colleagues, customers or close partners because whoever they are you'll try to keep them amused. You'll also do your best to behave fairly and pleasantly to all concerned, and it will be a lot easier than you might think. Energising colours are mandarin and snow white. Lucky numbers are 18 and 2.
 
You're extremely articulate today, so make the most of it. It's a brilliant day for putting across your point of view, whether you're doing it in the course of a friendly conversation or you're trying to win an argument. You'll also really enjoy putting your brain to good use through an intellectual activity or by losing yourself in a good book. Ideal colours are navy and cream. Lucky numbers are 26 and 31.
 
There's still quite a lot of emotional tension in the air but it's nothing like it was yesterday. What a relief! Even so, you'll have to cope with someone who's being very demanding and who obviously wants more attention than you're willing or able to give them. There could also be competition between two women, which will lead to some dodgy moments. But never mind, it will all blow over. Inspirational colours are ginger and ivory. Lucky numbers are 15 and 33.
 
Enjoy yourself today by spending time with friends and kindred spirits. You don't have to do anything very ambitious or special, either, to have fun. If you're taking part in a group activity you'll have a wonderful time and will get a lot out of the experience. Even if you arrived knowing no one, you'll leave with a warm glow and the phone numbers of several people. Dynamic colours are snow white and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
You're in the mood for some entertaining and lively conversation, preferably with people who are intelligent and who know what they're talking about. You enjoy discussing last night's TV programmes, but right now you want to talk about more important, serious topics such as politics, religion or world poverty. However, there's romance in the air.... Creative colours are silver grey and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 69.
 
Give your brain plenty of exercise today. Read all the serious articles in the Sunday newspapers, watch an intellectual TV programme or read a book that really makes you think. You might also get involved in a mind-stretching debate with someone, forcing you to think through your arguments and present your case in the most articulate and intelligent way you can. Favourable colours are golden honey and pale lemon. Lucky numbers are 32 and 38.
 
You need some light relief after yesterday's traumatic outbursts, so arrange to meet up with some friends or spend time on one of your favourite hobbies. You'll also have a good time with someone who comes from another country or a different background to yours, and you'll enjoy discussing your contrasting experiences. Favourable colours are raspberry and mixed colours. Lucky numbers are 20 and 60.
 
Life is tough today, due to the antics of certain people. A loved one is being incredibly difficult or they've gone into a huge sulk, or perhaps every conversation ends in a shouting match. Try to work out what's going on, otherwise you'll start to feel like the spot marked X, especially if you're the butt of everyone's anger. Have you done something to upset them? Fortunate colours are metallic blue and violet. Lucky numbers are 38 and 34.
 
Someone's feeling rather agitated. It's difficult to be around them for long because they feel like a volcano that's about to blow and you don't really want to be covered in red-hot lava when they do explode. But you may not have much choice in the matter, especially if you're the reason they're feeling so agitated in the first place. If you've stepped out of line, be prepared to face the rather loud music. Soothing colours are mandarin and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 63.
 
It's a bad-tempered day in which almost anything and anyone could rub you up the wrong way. The key is your level of emotional involvement because the more connected you feel to a person or thing, the more likely you are to blow your top about it. There could also be a fuss when someone starts to feel jealous and possessive, or they object to you seeing one of your friends. Not an easy day. Harmonious colours are moss green and ochre. Lucky numbers are 37 and 40.
 
Someone dear to your heart is feeling defensive and aggravated, and you have to tiptoe around them to avoid getting your head bitten off. It's more than likely that you'll have a row with this person at some point, partly because they're apparently spoiling for a fight and partly because you'll quickly catch their agitated mood. But there's no need to make a meal of it, is there? Harmonious colours are scarlet and silver. Lucky numbers are 16 and 15.
 
Something is bugging you. You've been left having to do lots of work while everyone else swans off and has a great time, or you feel like a slave who has to pander to the demands of the rest of the family. It would be far better to say what's wrong than to bottle it up and then express it through sulky silences or barbed comments. Beneficial colours are dark red and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 31 and 74.
 
Keep your social links with your finances separate Gemini, as it will end up in acrimony and bad feeling. For instance, if someone asks to borrow one of your belongings, they may fail to return it., much to your annoyance. There could also be friction about the amount of money that a certain person wants you to spend. Fortuitous colours are midnight blue and taupe. Lucky numbers are 22 and 4.
 
It feels as though everything is conspiring against you today. There's too much work to do, you've got too many chores to get through or someone seems to think you're their unpaid slave. No wonder you're close to losing your temper or telling someone what they can do with their job. Try to keep things in proportion while also saying what's wrong. Above all, don't sound as though you're blaming others for your own problems. Expressive colours are aquamarine and smoky grape. Lucky numbers are 15 and 53.
 
Something gets on your nerves today, making you feel edgy and irritable. But there are reasons why you can't let off steam in the way you'd like. Perhaps you're cross with someone who's older or more important than you, so you feel that it would be inappropriate to lose it with them. If you do allow yourself to express your anger, get it over with quickly and don't make a meal of it. Fortuitous colours are apricot and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 38 and 7.
 
The more someone cares about you, the more het up they're likely to be today. So at least you'll know they care if you're confronted by someone who's got steam coming out of their ears, even if they do deafen you by bellowing at you. All the same, try not to deliberately provoke this person into losing their temper, especially by making them feel jealous or possessive. Beautiful colours are striped agate and ash blond. Lucky numbers are 2 and 52.
 
There are hidden tensions in the air and they're putting everyone on edge. It's one of those tricky days when people are sending unspoken messages by sulking, slamming doors or being monosyllabic. Should you join in and be equally uncommunicative, or do your best to clear the air and then put the whole thing behind you? Energising colours are mushroom and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 17 and 46.
 
Tempers are easily frayed today, especially if you're going shopping with a loved one. You'll disagree about what to spend your money on, especially if one of you is the spendthrift and the other the saver. There could also be a dispute about your different priorities in life. It's important to get things off your chest but don't make hurtful comments that you don't really mean. Fortuitous colours are purple and lemon. Lucky numbers are 19 and 35.
 
Secrets have a funny way of making themselves public knowledge today, so be very careful about what you say. If you want to keep some facts private you shouldn't breathe them to a living soul. Even that person you trust implicitly may accidentally let the cat out of the bag now. There could also be embarrassment in certain quarters when someone makes some non-PC comments. Is this person being crass or is everyone else being too sensitive for words? Beneficial colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 2 and 17.
 
You're entering a month-long phase in which relationships flourish, thanks to your easy going attitude and need for harmony rather than hassle. This is a great opportunity to work at creating a better atmosphere between you and a certain person, especially if things haven't been great lately. It will also be a marvellous time to move in with someone or to marry them. Auspicious colours are ochre and avocado. Lucky numbers are 9 and 41.
 
Are you happy with your appearance or are you getting bored with your current image? Even some small changes, such as buying some new make-up or a flattering pair of shoes, will have a tremendous impact on your morale during the next three weeks. You'll also be even more popular than usual, which will help to put an extra spring in your step. Fortunate colours are persimmon and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 13.
 
Your popularity starts to rise from today, and during the next four weeks you'll be flavour of the month with lots of people. It's also going to be a fantastic time for love, whether you're looking for romance, friendship or family feelings. Get ready to dust off your party clothes because you could be invited to an exciting celebration and possibly even a wedding. It won't be yours, by any chance, will it? Dynamic colours are charcoal and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 41.
 
During the next few weeks you'll really enjoy immersing yourself in local activities and neighbourhood projects. Anything, in fact, that will help you to spend time with people you know well and allow you to spend more time in your local surroundings. If you've been searching for the man or woman of your dreams, there's a chance that you could discover they've been on your doorstep the whole time so study your neighbours carefully! Favourable colours are mauve and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 27 and 43.
 
The next few weeks are a great opportunity to take care of your health. Maybe you need a holiday, in which case this would be a great time to take it. Or perhaps it's time to swap your hectic nights out with some relaxing evenings in, so you can catch up on your beauty sleep. Speaking of beauty, you'll enjoy pampering yourself from head to foot, given half a chance. Auspicious colours are ebony and mango. Lucky numbers are 31 and 50.
 
Intimate relationships start to blossom from today and will continue to flourish until early May. This is a great opportunity to spend more time with that special person in your life, especially if you've been together for so long that you're starting to take one another for granted. If you're single, that could soon change when you meet a sexy someone who has an enchanting and entrancing effect on you. Bright colours are peach blossom and dark green. Lucky numbers are 9 and 51.
 
You've been so busy pushing ahead with your long-term ambitions lately that your social life has had to take a back seat. Well, from today you can bring it out of mothballs and start enjoying yourself again. Ring up some friends you haven't seen in a while and arrange to meet them, or get involved in a group activity that will introduce you to a whole new range of chums if you're lucky. Fortunate colours are purple and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 9 and 37.
 
You'll be in a romantic mood between now and mid May, giving you the chance to bring out that soft side which you like to keep under wraps. There's even a chance that you could become involved in a relationship that's conducted away from the public gaze over the next few weeks, whether that's because you've got to keep it a secret or because you cherish your privacy. Romantic colours are grape and cherry blossom. Lucky numbers are 29 and 15.
 
During the next few weeks you'll love any sort of adventure. It's the perfect opportunity to go on holiday because you'll have a whale of a time and there could even be a little romance, which will really give you something to write home about. Even if you're staying put, you'll enjoy meeting exotic or unusual people. You might also lose your heart to a belief or project that really gets to you. Sociable colours are umber and primrose. Lucky numbers are 6 and 42.
 
You've got friends in high places during the next few weeks, so cultivate them carefully. This doesn't mean sucking up to them in a nauseating manner, of course, because any fool will be able to see through that. But you might make a big effort to talk to a superior as though they're a human being instead of someone who was put on this planet to make your life a misery. And you'll also enjoy spending time with older friends and relatives. Ideal colours are scarlet and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
 
Home sweet home! That's where your heart will lie throughout the rest of April and into the early part of May. This will be a wonderful opportunity to lavish time, money and affection on your family and also on your home. For instance, you might be inspired to do some decorating or even to give your home a complete facelift, or you could start planning a major family get-together. Ideal colours are ebony and lime. Lucky numbers are 25 and 43.
 
Beauty, comfort and luxury will all be more important to you than usual during the next four weeks. You might feel the overpowering urge to pamper yourself in some way, especially if it's a wonderful treat for you. Maybe this could be your birthday present to yourself? Speaking of presents, you'll be in an extravagant mood at times and will adore spending money. Romantic colours are grapefruit and grey. Lucky numbers are 32 and 67.
 
Don't underestimate yourself today because there's a tremendous amount you can achieve if you put your mind to it. A little discipline and willpower will work wonders, but don't let these spill over into bullying tactics that are designed to let you get your own way no matter how much opposition you're facing. So concentrate on projects and actions that will benefit everyone, not just yourself. Auspicious colours are marzipan and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 15 and 9.
 
You have the power to make some big changes to your life today, so don't hold back. It will feel really good to know that you're achieving something. Your relationship with a certain someone is also affected by today's astrological influences, and you'll have a huge impact on them. But don't abuse this power by using it for selfish purposes, such as making this person agree to all your demands. Prosperous colours are sunflower yellow and ivory. Lucky numbers are 20 and 51.
 
It's a good day for fixing anything that's wrong, whether it's an object, a situation or a relationship. You have a strong sense of your own abilities and strengths, so play on them in order to get the best out of the day. What's more, you won't be overbearing or power-crazy while you're doing this. You'll simply be operating at your best, for everyone to see. Beneficial colours are pale grey and dark red. Lucky numbers are 4 and 75.
 
It's a good day for looking deep inside yourself at your innermost fears, needs and motives. If you're a classic Taurean you might feel rather silly doing this, perhaps telling yourself that such self- analysis is all a lot of nonsense, but it will turn out to be a very valuable exercise if you're prepared to persist with it. So give it a try! Vibrant colours are bright red and lemon. Lucky numbers are 39 and 60.
 
This is a great day for making some constructive changes to your life. Concentrate on whatever you think needs to be fixed, and approach it from a positive angle. You're feeling very forceful and powerful, which will help you to achieve whatever you set out to do. If you make the most of today's astrological influences you'll feel that you've really achieved something worthwhile. Fortunate colours are bronze and avocado. Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
 
This is a marvellous day for solving any problems that you've encountered in relationships recently. These might be anything from a slight niggle with a partner to a major disagreement with a friend, but they need to be tackled right now while you're able to say and do the right things to get your relationship back on an even keel. Restful colours are aquamarine and pearl. Lucky numbers are 13 and 66.
 
It's a good day for spending money on health and fitness, especially if this is the start of a new regime in which you'll take better care of yourself. You might take out a subscription to a gym if you don't already belong to one, buy yourself some vitamins and other supplements, treat yourself to a massage or complementary therapy, or switch to eating organic food. Harmonious colours are lemon and ochre. Lucky numbers are 35 and 67.
 
You have a tremendous amount of power and presence today, so use it wisely. It's perfect for giving someone your opinion or for taking part in a debate, because your words will carry plenty of weight. However, you must resist the urge to ram your ideas down anyone's throat because that will backfire on you sooner or later. Take it gently and know when to keep quiet! Opportune colours are oyster and russet. Lucky numbers are 12 and 19.
 
Sort out domestic budgets and other money concerns now, because you're in exactly the right frame of mind to tackle such matters. If you're currently involved in a property deal, perhaps because you're buying or selling your home, this is the perfect day to sort out the details, negotiate the price or ask some intricate questions. Ideal colours are teal blue and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 3 and 15.
 
Yesterday's tired and listless mood has vanished, leaving you raring to go once more. Today, you're ready to work hard on any projects that will help you to make a name for yourself or boost your self-esteem. It's also an excellent day for making some long-lasting and serious changes to your life, especially if you know they're long overdue. Communicative colours are pumpkin and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 11 and 4.
 
This is a fantastic day for rolling up your sleeves and getting on with whichever jobs require your attention. You're in a fix-it mood, so it's a good opportunity to check that equipment and systems are all working properly and to do something about them if they aren't. If you've got to make a decision you'll think it through carefully and will choose the most sensible and logical option. Prosperous colours are aqua and avocado. Lucky numbers are 35 and 63.
 
This is a great day for making some changes to your home life, especially if you want them to last a long time. You might decide to move the furniture around or get out the paint pot, or you could be going for something more deep and meaningful, such as getting in touch with a relative you haven't heard from in a while. Memories could also come flooding back, so be prepared for some emotional moments. Advantageous colours are lapis lazuli and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 23 and 66.
 
It's a strange day and you're feeling a bit weird. You may be all churned up about something yet be unable to express your emotions for some reason, or even to put your finger on what's wrong.

Lucky numbers are 19 and 70.
 
There are strange goings on with a certain person today, making you wonder what they're playing at. Are they up to something or are you reading too much into the situation? They may be trying to subtly undermine you, even if they aren't aware of what they're doing. Alternatively, of course, you may be the one who's trying to put your loved one down. Soaring colours are purple and lemon. Lucky numbers are 29 and 1.
 
Watch out when handling money today because things won't go very well. You may have to deal with someone who tries to scupper you or get the better of you, even though they'll be all smiles on the surface. You should also beware of any offers or suggestions that sound too good to be true because that's probably exactly what they are. Throughout all this, you'll feel agitated and irritated, without knowing why. Fortunate colours are butterscotch and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
It's a tricky day and you'll need lots of patience if you're going to get through it without losing your temper at some point. The thing is that you're feeling irritated and grouchy without knowing why, so you're behaving like a bear with a sore head. You may also have a lot less energy than usual, making you want to curl up in a corner and go to sleep. That won't help your temper, either. Relaxing colours are grape and ivory. Lucky numbers are 14 and 70.
 
You're in a highly efficient and practical mood today, which is marvellous for tackling anything that calls for a clear head and a methodical approach. It's great for sorting out a financial or bureaucratic matter, for calculating your work expenses, talking to the taxman or anything else that's tedious but necessary. You'll also do well if you're at work. Auspicious colours are banana yellow and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 38 and 29.
 
It's a strange day in which things don't go the way you want and people have a nasty habit of thwarting you. Maybe you're unconsciously tripping yourself up in some way, too. You may be feeling very angry about something yet get the impression that you shouldn't lose your temper because you're supposed to be nice all the time. Let off steam by doing something therapeutic. Stabilising colours are toffee and navy. Lucky numbers are 23 and 5.
 
Keep your wits about you, especially when dealing with someone in a position of authority or power because they may try to twist you round their little finger without you being aware of what's going on. Be very careful about playing the same sort of game yourself because it will backfire on you sooner or later. Be honest and straightforward, not manipulative or sly. Healing colours are red and gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 51.
 
There's a strange atmosphere today because someone is being difficult. You might get the impression that they're trying to trip you up in some way or they're playing a private game with you but haven't told you what the rules are. It's hardly surprising that you're feeling so irritable and scratchy. It will help to keep active but beware of doing too much because then you'll feel exhausted and drained. Expressive colours are mandarin and dark green. Lucky numbers are 30 and 36.
 
It's hard to know what's going on today. You feel as though you're lost in a fog and you can't get your bearings. Your best bet is to accept that this is how things are and to simply coast along until you're more sure of what's happening. What you mustn't do is make important decisions while you're so uncertain about whether they're the right course to take. Beneficial colours are sable and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
 
Be very careful if you're handling some sort of property deal or buying things connected with your home today, because someone may not be as honest as you think. They may find subtle ways to put you down in order to get a better price out of you, or they might have their own reasons why they want the whole deal to fall apart sooner or later. So watch out for someone who's trying to sabotage you. Auspicious colours are navy and white. Lucky numbers are 19 and 30.
 
Take it easy today. It feels as though all your energy and motivation are draining out through the soles of your feet, leaving you struggling to do anything even remotely strenuous. Ideally, you should take the day off and have a rest, but that may not be possible. If you've got to carry on regardless, make sure you have lots of mini breaks in which you can catch your breath. Ideal colours are black velvet and sable. Lucky numbers are 1 and 59.
 
You need to develop a subtle approach when dealing with friends and associates today. Steamrolling them with your ideas won't work, and nor will getting angry when they fail to see what you're talking about. However, it's essential that you resist any temptation to behave in a devious or manipulative manner because this will come back to haunt you sooner or later. Ideal colours are burgundy and white. Lucky numbers are 7 and 40.
 
You've encountered some irritating hiccups while handling financial matters recently, but things start to sort themselves out from today. However, you should check that things are running smoothly again by taking a look at your bank account or credit card payments. If you spot a mistake you'll be in a position to sort it out as quickly as possible. Expressive colours are pink velvet and oyster. Lucky numbers are 31 and 77.
 
Look after yourself because your nerves are very jangled right now, and anything could set you off. It doesn't help that it's one of those days when nothing goes according to plan, so you can't rely on things going your way. Try to give yourself frequent breaks from whatever you're doing, and find physical ways to release the tension you're feeling. Otherwise, you'll end up climbing the walls. Inspirational colours are lime and ebony. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
During the past couple of weeks it hasn't always been easy to make contact with friends, nor to know what they're talking about when you do manage to get in touch. Well, this chaotic phase is now coming to an end, but first you may have to sort out a few persistent problems such as getting to grips with a misunderstanding that's sprung up with someone. Inspirational colours are brass and navy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 48.
 
After three weeks of mangled communications and crossed wires, you can heave a sigh of relief because things start to get back to normal from today. Mind you, you may have to perform some damage limitation exercises first, such as re-sending emails that have gone missing or trying to find out why there's a misunderstanding between you and a certain person. Fortuitous colours are pink and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 21 and 61.
 
There have been times recently when it's been difficult to say what you mean or make proper contact with others. Well, thank goodness things start to get back to normal again today. However, you may decide that it would be advisable to apologize for some of the things that you've said or done during the past couple of weeks, especially if you still shudder to think of them. Beneficial colours are ivory and ebony. Lucky numbers are 13 and 42.
 
There have been times lately when it's been difficult to communicate properly with loved ones. Maybe they haven't been around when you've wanted to talk to them or there have been crossed wires between you. Well, whatever the problem, you can start sorting things out from today and getting everything back to normal. If you're currently buying or selling property, double-check that everything is running smoothly and no documents or letters have got lost in the post. Beneficial colours are spearmint and vanilla. Lucky numbers are 12 and 8.
 
Have money matters been plain sailing recently or have you had to steer your way through some stormy or choppy waters? If things have been dodgy recently, the good news is that they should start to iron themselves out from today although it may take several days for you to notice this improvement. In the meantime, don't take risks by assuming that recent financial matters are okay unless you've got written proof. Fortunate colours are silver and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 5 and 60.
 
You feel as though you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders today, which isn't much fun. Maybe you've got to get cracking on a load of chores, or you have to take responsibility for something that isn't really your fault. You can get a lot done now if you try, but it will be difficult to counteract your depressed and dispirited mood. Try to stay positive and keep away from people who often put you down. Fortunate colours are burnt orange and dark green. Lucky numbers are 33 and 70.
 
It hasn't all been plain sailing when dealing with people in power and handling official matters recently, but happily things start to get back to normal from today. Double check that important documents haven't gone astray in the post and that the wheels of bureaucracy are still grinding on in your favour. If you should have heard about something important by now but there hasn't been a peep, it's about time you chased it up. Beneficial colours are sage and cherry. Lucky numbers are 8 and 65.
 
There have been some silly but irritating misunderstandings between you and loved ones recently but you get the chance to sort them out from today. It may only take a couple of minutes or you might have to put in a lot more effort than that, but either way it will feel good to get things back to normal. You might also make an important decision now about a child or creative project. Propitious colours are pistachio and coffee. Lucky numbers are 16 and 70.
 
Do your best to keep yourself amused today, otherwise you'll start to get bored and then spend lots of money in order to entertain yourself. This is fine if you've got bags of cash to spare, but it's not such good news if you're supposed to be on an economy drive or a strict budget. Boredom and restlessness could also lead to ructions with loved ones, as you subconsciously try to stir up trouble purely to find out what will happen next. Ideal colours are copper and jet black. Lucky numbers are 9 and 55.
 
Communications have been up and down recently, which has caused a few hiccups, but they start to settle down again today. This will come as a great relief if you're getting fed up with letters going astray, phone calls not being connected or meetings being cancelled at the last minute. If you're in the middle of some serious negotiations or discussions, you'd better check that you're fully up to date with what's been happening in case someone has neglected to give you some vital information. Auspicious colours are strawberry and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 8 and 49.
 
You're feeling better today, which is good news after yesterday's rather downbeat atmosphere. This is a wonderful day for being with some of your favourite people because you'll appreciate having them around. You could also make some improvements to your relationship, almost without realizing it. It's certainly a good day for burying the hatchet or forgiving one another for recent transgressions. Ideal colours are aqua and silver. Lucky numbers are 26 and 24.
 
The relationship between you and a certain person will become much stronger and more intimate today if you follow your instincts. Let this person into your life, perhaps by confiding in them or by letting them talk to you, or by working together to make your alliance more rewarding and enriching. What happens now could transform this relationship for ever. Beneficial colours are terracotta and magenta. Lucky numbers are 37 and 21.
 
Welcome the opportunity today to talk about your deepest feelings and needs, especially if you've been having a difficult time over the past few days. Have the courage to open up your heart to someone you trust, whether they're your other half, a long-term friend or an objective third party. A close relationship could also go through a very intense and passionate phase. Favourable colours are navy and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 23 and 68.
 
You could fall in love with an idea or a belief now, or you might be enchanted by the way someone's mind works. This will be a fascinating experience that could teach you a great deal about yourself. An in-depth conversation with a friend will give you plenty of food for thought, and might even lead to you to the answer to a current problem. Don't underestimate what happens today! Favourable colours are deep purple and silver. Lucky numbers are 9 and 47.
 
Love has the power to transform your life today. You might meet someone who knocks you off your feet and gives your life a meaning it never had until now. If you're already involved with someone, this is a great day for enjoying one another's company and also for talking about how you can improve your relationship in the future. Beneficial colours are dark purple and magenta. Lucky numbers are 2 and 63.
 
How can you make some small but telling changes to your life? Maybe you could spend more time on the priorities in life and less time on inessentials, such as vegging out in front of the TV when you would much rather sit in another room and read a book. All it takes is a little effort and you've got plenty of that this Monday. Ideal colours are silvery blue and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 35 and 19.
 
You've really been through the mill in the past few days, but at long last you can start to pull yourself together again. But first you've got to think about what happened and, preferably, talk about it as well to someone who understands. Do your best to learn more about yourself through this experience because then you'll have got something constructive out of it. Expansive colours are mushroom and lavender. Lucky numbers are 28 and 73.
 
You're powerfully attracted to people who are important or influential today. You admire the position they've reached and maybe you'd like some of it to rub off on you. Well, it's fine to show your admiration but try not to worship anyone simply because of who they are or what they represent. If you begin a relationship with someone today it will be very intense and significant for you. Expressive colours are smoky quartz and gold. Lucky numbers are 15 and 42.
 
A certain person has a tremendous impact on you this Monday, whether they appeal to you mentally or physically. There's definitely sexual magnetism in the air which makes life very exciting and unpredictable even if you aren't taking it seriously. If you do meet someone new now, it will be hard to get them out of your thoughts and maybe you won't want to. Fortunate colours are deep purple and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 18 and 11.
 
The emphasis is on close relationships at the moment and that theme continues today. At least things are a lot more cheerful for you than they were yesterday, which is good news. You also have the chance to change a relationship for the better, so maybe this is your opportunity to talk about what happened yesterday. This will be an emotional experience, so be prepared. Energising colours are vanilla and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 25 and 45.
 
Relationships carry a lot of emotional impact today, making it a great opportunity to be with some of the people you care about. If there have been problems between you and a certain someone recently, this is a super day for sorting everything out and getting things back on track. It's also good for analysing your feelings about someone so you know exactly where you stand. Soothing colours are turquoise and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 32 and 42.
 
If you've been having problems with a certain person recently, especially if you work with them, this is a great chance to put matters right. Have a chat with them, say how you feel and do your best to patch things up. But make sure you mean it, and that there aren't any hints of blackmail or bargaining in what you're saying. Expansive colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 24 and 51.
 
Feeling guilty after falling off the diet wagon yesterday? Don't be too hard on yourself because that will only lower your morale still further and convince you that it's impossible to follow a healthy eating regime. It will help if you can keep away from anyone who likes adopting a high moral tone and making you feel like something they've trodden in. Uplifting colours are red and blonde. Lucky numbers are 36 and 73.
 
Yesterday you had your head in the clouds but today you've got your feet solidly back on terra firma. And it's not very nice, because you're miserable, flat and anxious. What's wrong? Are you feeling lonely and neglected for some reason? Maybe someone special is busy with other things right now, making you feel neglected and lonely. Try not to over-react and make a big song and dance out of all this unless it happens all too often. Opportunistic colours are sky blue and gold. Lucky numbers are 39 and 41.
 
Your spirits take a dive today, making you feel rather sombre and flat. The trouble seems to lie in your relationships, and difficult circumstances are making you feel neglected, lonely or unloved. This might be how you feel but is it really how things are? Don't let yourself brood over imagined slights because they'll only make you miserable and feel sorry for yourself. Inspirational colours are cinnamon and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 18 and 19.
 
You've been in high spirits lately but it's a different story this Sunday because you suddenly start to feel sad and low key. Maybe something you were looking forward to fails to happen, or the day is marred by delays and snags that you can't control. You may also have to cope with someone who thinks they're morally superior and who delights in telling you how many things you've got wrong. Stabilising colours are amber and silver. Lucky numbers are 20 and 64.
 
Things have been going really well for you so far this April but you start to doubt yourself today. Try not to make mountains out of molehills, nor to dwell on negative thoughts, otherwise these will get such a grip on you that you'll start to feel depressed and unconfident. There may also be delays that are beyond your control but which make you frustrated or ill at ease. Ideal colours are beige and lime. Lucky numbers are 13 and 58.
 
It feels as though there's a wall separating you from loved ones today. Maybe you're physically separated right now and you wish they were around, or perhaps you're experiencing an emotional gulf between you. Whatever is wrong, try not to make it worse than it already is by dwelling on it too much, feeling sorry for yourself or deciding that it's because you're unlovable. Instead, do something that boosts your self- esteem. Relaxing colours are treacle and green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 18.
 
Look after yourself today because you're feeling very sensitive. You're also suffering from a severe lack of self-confidence, which makes you easy pickings for anyone who wants to put you down or fill you with self-doubt. If you start to feel really bad about yourself, think of all the good things you've achieved. It may also help to spend some time alone, but not if you're going to mope and brood. Stable colours are spring green and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 26 and 55.
 
Prepare yourself for possible disappointments. Something that you've been looking forward to, such as a social event, may have to be scaled down or even cancelled altogether. This may be for financial reasons, perhaps because one of you can't afford to pay for what's been planned. If you buy anything today, it could turn out to be worth less than you thought. Communicative colours are shimmering pink and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 31 and 34.
 
Things easily get on top of you today, especially if they're connected with work or health. You've got the cares of the world on your shoulders right now, but try not to let them get you down more than necessary. Instead of dwelling on how bad things are and losing all your motivation as a result, try to solve a few problems or tackle some chores so you feel you've achieved something. Comforting colours are pale grey and lavender. Lucky numbers are 15 and 1.
 
Look after yourself today because you're feeling very sensitive and it won't take much to make you feel rejected or lonely. The trouble is that you're placing too much importance on how loved ones are behaving towards you, so if someone is too busy to see you you'll think it's because you aren't worth bothering with. Try not to take everything so personally. Inspirational colours are dusky rose and aqua. Lucky numbers are 10 and 14.
 
Once again you're feeling vulnerable and sensitive. In many ways it's a re-run of what happened on Friday, so grit your teeth if that was a tough experience. Even so, you can help yourself by not letting yourself get overwrought about silly things, and also by not allowing your confidence to be dented at the first hurdle. Empowering colours are salmon and umber. Lucky numbers are 7 and 11.
 
Take care because once again you're in a rather morose and deflated mood. If something goes wrong you'll invest it with more importance than it deserves, perhaps telling yourself that it proves you're unlucky or that no one loves you. You're torn between being sociable and reclusive, but you really prefer your own company. Fortunate colours are peach and aqua. Lucky numbers are 26 and 61.
 
You're still in an upbeat mood and ready for adventure. Today, that adventure comes in the guise of people who are charming, interesting and who probably have very different backgrounds to yours. If you're lucky enough to be on holiday at the moment, you might meet someone who makes you go weak at the knees. Will it be a holiday romance or a deliciously flirtatious interlude that's over almost as soon as it starts? Favourable colours are blackberry and ginger. Lucky numbers are 37 and 22.
 
It's easy to express your feelings today, but if you're secretly attracted to someone who's out of reach or unavailable, you'll have to camouflage your feelings in some way. At some point, you'll love the prospect of relaxing on your own, away from the constant demands of everyday life. Uplifting colours are silvery grey and tan. Lucky numbers are 12 and 34.
 
You love your home comforts now and you'll be very reluctant to leave them for long. You might spend the day slumped on your sofa or sitting in the garden, but you'll prefer the company of close friends and family to that of complete strangers. Why not enjoy eating lots of delicious goodies, even if they are laden with calories? Sometimes you simply have to spoil yourself. Playful colours are saffron and fudge. Lucky numbers are 27 and 50.
 
Let's hope that you've got the day off because you certainly aren't in the mood for any work, unless it's very artistic and creative. Taking life easy is more your cup of tea right now, and you'll be happiest if you can relax in some convivial company. So gather your friends around you or, if that isn't possible, visit somewhere that always has a soothing effect on you. Energising colours are salmon pink and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 38.
 
Someone in your life needs plenty of time and attention and they're being rather demanding. They haven't gone completely over the top but nevertheless you feel you've got to dance to their tune in order to keep them sweet. This is very nice of you, but don't make a rod for your own back or set a precedent that will be hard to keep up. Favourable colours are pistachio and grape. Lucky numbers are 17 and 42.
 
This is a great day for going shopping with someone, especially if you'll be spending money together. You'll do your best to keep each other sweet, even when you don't agree about whether to buy something or not, and will try to make the experience as enjoyable as possible. There's a whiff of jealousy in the air, though, so don't do anything that's guaranteed to make your beloved feel territorial about you. Inspirational colours are silvery blue and spring green. Lucky numbers are 25 and 57.
 
This is a lovely day for enjoying yourself and being sociable. You aren't in the mood to do anything very strenuous or difficult. Instead, you want to laze around with your feet up, doing as little as possible. Alternatively, you'll enjoy mixing with close friends and relatives. If you've got to talk to a neighbour about something you'll manage to be the epitome of tact. Empowering colours are lapis lazuli and jade. Lucky numbers are 26 and 65.
 
Spare a thought for someone who isn't having a very good time at the moment. Maybe you could visit them, offer to do their shopping or take them a little treat. You don't have to make a grand gesture, either, because this person will appreciate any attention you can give them. Take care if you're supposed to be watching what you eat at the moment because you'll be drawn to all the things you're meant to avoid, and the sweeter and creamier the better. Positive colours are cobalt blue and sage green. Lucky numbers are 14 and 68.
 
You're very charming and tactful today, and it will get you plenty of favours. It's a super day for chatting to a boss or superior, or anyone else who's in a position of authority over you. You'll be able to hit it off with each other, which will show you in a good light. This is also a good day for being with older friends and relatives, and for enjoying their company regardless of the age difference between you. Expansive colours are mauve and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
 
Give yourself a treat today by spending time with some of the special people in your life. Or maybe you'd prefer to be with one person in particular? Ideally, you should do something enjoyable together, such as going out for lunch, spending the afternoon in the cinema or having dinner in the best restaurant you can find. Alternatively, maybe just walking hand in hand will be more than enough. Auspicious colours are lemon and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 36 and 51.
 
This is the perfect day for spending money on items that will have a lot of meaning for you. You don't have to shell out a lot of cash, either, because you'll get just as much satisfaction from something inexpensive but special as you will from something that's big and flashy. If you're buying clothes you'll be drawn to natural fabrics, such as cotton, wool or silk, rather than anything man-made. Beneficial colours are bright purple and magenta. Lucky numbers are 19 and 39.
 
You're hungry for love and affection today, and you won't be very happy if you have to spend too much time on your own. When you are with people you care about, do your best to show them how much you care. This is also a good day to do something creative or artistic, or to continue your quest to update your wardrobe or enhance your image. Beneficial colours are crimson and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 9 and 74.
 
Today's Solar Eclipse is good news because it heralds a very lucky phase for you over the next few weeks. It will be a fabulous opportunity to branch out in new directions, especially if these represent a leap of faith, because you never know where they might lead and who you might meet along the way. It's also a fantastic time for activities that involve travel, whether of the mind or body. So get out that suitcase! Receptive colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 25 and 70.
 
It's a rather bleak and lonely day. Maybe you're physically separated from loved ones and you're really feeling the strain, or perhaps there's an emotional gulf between you at the moment. Brooding or feeling sorry for yourself won't help to improve the situation, and if anything will make it seem much worse than it really is. Distract yourself by doing something practical or therapeutic. Auspicious colours are khaki and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 74.
 
It's a Solar Eclipse today, which is big news for your relationships. Someone new could soon enter your life, in which case they'll make a massive impact on you. When you look back on this phase, you may even divide time into what happened before you met them and what happened after you met them. If your birthday falls on the 7th, 8th or 9th of April, this year will be a very significant one for you. Inspirational colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 31 and 37.
 
There's a partially eclipsed New Moon today, which will have a massive impact on your career and long-term ambitions during the next few weeks. If you've been meaning to start an important new project, apply for another job or switch careers, this is when you should pull out all the stops and get cracking. You never know what you can do until you try, and you could really surprise yourself in the coming weeks. Auspicious colours are mulberry and apple blossom. Lucky numbers are 27 and 15.
 
This is a really important day because there's a solar eclipse at the New Moon in your own sign. It means that you're poised on the brink of a new chapter in your life, in which all sorts of new opportunities will be coming your way. If it's your birthday today, you can look forward to a year of major changes for the better. You won't look back! Bright colours are marzipan and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 21 and 42.
 
You're feeling ultra sensitive at the Solar Eclipse, making you see slights and hurts at every turn. Are people really trying to get to you or are you over-reacting? It won't help if someone special isn't around or they seem to be giving you the cold shoulder. You'll torture yourself by imagining all sorts of terrible reasons for their current behaviour, when all the time there may be a very simple explanation. So don't press the panic button yet! Bold colours are chestnut and treacle. Lucky numbers are 2 and 12.
 
Great news! Today's Solar Eclipse will have a wonderful impact on your love life during the rest of April. If you're on your own at the moment you might soon be part of a starry-eyed couple after meeting Mr or Ms Right. You could hear marvellous news of a child or a forthcoming celebration, such as a wedding, and you might also get involved in a creative project that will really boost your confidence. Ideal colours are spearmint and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 37 and 40.
 
Today's Solar Eclipse will have a profound impact on you during the next few weeks, so get ready for some life-changing experiences. You might have some important realizations about yourself, especially if these explain why you behave in a certain way sometimes. The coming few weeks might also mark a turning point in your relationship with a special someone, bringing you closer together. Beneficial colours are violet and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 13.
 
If you've been waiting for the right moment to tell someone how much you care about them, that day has now arrived. You're feeling fearless and brave, and you've reached the stage where you think you'll burst if you don't speak from the heart. Well, good luck, but don't be so over-confident that you automatically assume everything will go your way. It probably will but you don't want to appear cocky. Expressive colours are blackberry and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 15 and 47.
 
A certain person is being extremely persuasive and they're capable of talking you into almost anything. They may even be suggesting things that you'd normally baulk at but which really appeal to you at the moment, especially if they set you a challenge or make you face up to some of your fears. You're keen to prove that you're a good sport but don't do anything foolhardy. Favourable colours are smoky grey and spring green. Lucky numbers are 1 and 10.
 
You're feeling like a daredevil today, which is great for steeling yourself to do things that require guts and courage. But don't get so carried away that you do things which are foolhardy or dangerous, even though they seem like a good idea at the time. Be especially careful when doing physical activities because you won't know when to stop. Favourable colours are nutmeg and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 25 and 64.
 
Life seems to be full of disappointments today. If you've arranged to do something nice, it might be postponed or even cancelled, much to your dismay. You may also feel isolated from the rest of the world because of all the work you've got to do or because you aren't very well at the moment. Try not to take all this to heart, otherwise things will seem even worse than they really are. Favourable colours are ruby red and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 72.
 
If you want to keep something a secret, you shouldn't breathe a word about it to a soul today. It will be tempting to drop hints but that could lead to disaster when someone either guesses what you're talking about or persuades you to spill the beans. And it's no good confiding in someone, either, because they may also fail to keep your secret to themselves. Favourable colours are apple blossom and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 60.
 
Feelings are running high for a certain person today, making them difficult to deal with. They seem to be overheating emotionally, so they're intense, obsessive and easily upset. But maybe they really do have something to be upset about? It may be a pain to listen to them ranting on but they need to let off steam to someone. Ideal colours are treacle and olive. Lucky numbers are 34 and 29.
 
The astrological accent is firmly on your relationships at the moment and it's the same story this Thursday. You'll enjoy being with some of the people in your life, or perhaps you'd prefer to be with one very special person. There's an intensity to your feelings that may take you by surprise, especially if you're usually the sort of Libran who prides themselves on keeping heavy emotions at bay. Well, today you're completely wrapped up in your emotions and the experience is quite an education for you. Passionate colours are platinum and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 22.
 
There's a strong emphasis on your family and domestic life, and someone can't stop talking. It's OK if you don't have anything better to do except listen, but it will be a pain in the neck if you're trying to get on with whatever is on your personal agenda. All the same, you may also have your chatty moments, especially when talking about the past. So bear this in mind if you see everyone's eyes glazing over while you're rabbiting away! Favourable colours are violet and rose. Lucky numbers are 8 and 17.
 
Someone is taking things much too seriously today. It's as though they've lost their sense of humour and are being ultra-intense. Bear this in mind when talking to them because they need careful handling. Alternatively, you might get churned up about past hurts and problems that come to the surface once again, making you feel wretched or defensive. Liberating colours are fawn and bright red. Lucky numbers are 2 and 27.
 
A certain person really turns on the emotional pressure today, doing their best to manipulate you into obeying their commands or giving them the affection or attention they want. It will be difficult to resist them, yet you'll feel angry at being forced to fulfil this person's needs through such an unsubtle and heavy-handed strategy. Do you dare to stand up to them? Positive colours are mushroom and pastel pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 51.
 
Someone is very chatty today. It's good fun to listen to them at first, especially if they're talking about their holidays or intellectual topics, but you can have too much of a good thing as you'll discover before too long. On the other hand, maybe you're the one who's doing all the talking? If so, try to shut up and let the other person get a word in edgeways every now and then. Harmonious colours are russet and pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 60.
 
Grab some paper and jot down whatever comes into your head. You'll enjoy organizing your thoughts enough to put them on paper, and some great ideas could be born as a result. However, this isn't the day to judge them because you don't have enough objectivity right now. Besides, evaluating your ideas at this stage will simply make them stop flooding through your mind. Auspicious colours are mauve and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 15.
 
To say that a certain person is chatty today is like describing the sea as being slightly wet! This person will barely draw breath, so be warned if you ring them up for a quick chat because you could still be on the phone hours later. Mind you, you won't exactly be short of things to say yourself, especially given the chance to natter away about small, everyday incidents. Beneficial colours are pastel pink and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 40 and 76.
 
Someone is full of advice - the question is whether you want to listen to it, because once this person starts talking they may not know when to stop. You'll hear all about their experiences and it will be difficult to extricate yourself if you're supposed to be doing something else. If you've got to meet a deadline you'll find it easiest to concentrate if you're left alone. Fortunate colours are saffron and navy. Lucky numbers are 22 and 78.
 
A friend has a lot to say for themselves today. In fact, they may have too much to say, as you'll soon notice when they keep jabbering on and don't let you utter more than a few words. Does it really matter and is it worth getting in a stew about? Put yourself back in a good mood by devoting some time to an enjoyable hobby or see what's happening in your favourite club. Communicative colours are copper and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 20 and 70.
 
The domestic atmosphere is highly charged today, making it difficult to be around the rest of the family or your housemates for long. Perhaps someone is brooding over something they feel strongly about and expecting special treatment as a result. You may also have to cope with painful memories that swim back into the forefront of your mind and leave you struggling to cope with the day's events. Beneficial colours are opal and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 33 and 77.
 
It's easy to tune into other people today, almost as though there's no need for words. You might even find that there's a strong current of telepathy flowing between you and a certain person, so you know when they're thinking about you or you both start to say the same thing at the same time. You're also concerned about people who might need your help, such as a neighbour who isn't very well, and will do what you can to give them a hand. Favourable colours are marmalade and jade. Lucky numbers are 16 and 45.
 
Do your best to be kind and considerate today. You're eager to give people the benefit of the doubt when necessary and may overlook things that you'd usually get agitated about. You might give some money to someone collecting for charity, offer to do someone a good turn or simply ponder how you can do your bit to make the world a better place. Positive colours are opal and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 9 and 20.
 
This is another day when you're prepared to let bygones be bygones and not hold grudges. This is very commendable, but make sure you really mean it otherwise you'll be kidding yourself. Someone influential or high-powered could tuck you under their wing or look out for you in some way today, making you feel very grateful. Favourable colours are amethyst and oyster. Lucky numbers are 20 and 16.
 
You're interested in charitable, voluntary and humanitarian activities today, especially when you're considering how you can contribute to them. You might decide to donate some money to a favourite charity, or you could be asked to give more practical help by carrying out some good works yourself. Your current kindness and compassion won't go unnoticed. Propitious colours are cream and chocolate brown. Lucky numbers are 31 and 48.
 
You want to know what makes other people tick today, preferably by taking a peep into their soul. This mans you might start a conversation with a spiritual or religious slant, so you can find out what someone believes in, or you could get them talking about their childhood if they come from a completely different background to yours. Auspicious colours are butterscotch and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 28 and 12.
 
It's another day when you're very tuned in to other people, especially if you know them well. If necessary, do what you can to put them at their ease and appreciate their current concerns. Charity begins at home right now, so be prepared to leap into the fray if a relative needs some help. They may be too proud to ask, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't offer. Beneficial colours are vermilion and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 20 and 30.
 
It's another day when you're in a loving and forgiving frame of mind. You want people to like you so you'll bend over backwards to be nice to them. If you're taking part in a discussion or negotiation you'll want to find some common ground with everyone else and will hesitate to say anything that sounds even remotely unpleasant. But don't be too much of a push-over. Receptive colours are avocado and topaz. Lucky numbers are 38 and 36.
 
It's another lovely day for being with people you care about. You want to make a fuss of them and you'll have a happy time dreaming up ways to make them feel loved and appreciated. If there have been problems between you and a certain person recently, this is a great chance to show that there are no hard feelings - and to mean every word you say. Healing colours are auburn and lime. Lucky numbers are 11 and 3.
 
Once again you're in a compassionate mood, making it easy for you to understand what other people are going through. If you know someone who's stuck in hospital or some other institution then this is a good day to visit them because they'll appreciate the effort you've made to see them. You're feeling very selfless at the moment. Fortunate colours are salmon pink and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 56.
 
If you have a pet, this is a good day for making sure they've got everything they need and possibly for arranging a check-up at the vet's for them. Or maybe you're thinking of getting a pet if you don't already have one? Well, only take the plunge today if you've already decided to do so, otherwise you could be seduced by the sight of a furry little face in a pet shop and buy the creature on a whim. Ideal colours are ginger and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 18 and 47.
 
You're in a dreamy, idealistic frame of mind, making you keen to escape any form of harsh reality. You don't feel able to face anyone who's very harsh or combative because you aren't sure how to deal with them. Equally, you'd rather postpone any difficult or unpleasant tasks until you feel better able to cope, but don't put them off indefinitely. Prosperous colours are pink satin and bronze. Lucky numbers are 10 and 61.
 
You're in a very forgiving and accepting mood today, making it great for getting on well with whoever happens to be around. You'll find it especially easy to hit it off with colleagues and customers, because you're ready to take them as you find them and you hope they'll do the same to you. If you've got some spare cash you'll enjoy treating yourself to something that will improve your health or general well- being. Expressive colours are saffron and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 34.
 
You're in a very understanding and sympathetic mood today, making it easy for you to tune into the people around you. This will encourage them to confide in you, so don't be surprised if someone pins you to the sofa and tells you some of their secrets. You may also have to listen while an older member of the family takes a nostalgic stroll down memory lane. Revealing colours are mushroom and oyster. Lucky numbers are 8 and 6.
 
There's a strong rapport and understanding between you and a certain person today. It makes you feel good, especially if you have romantic designs on this person. If you've only just met one another, you'll be on your best behaviour but without being totally unrealistic about who you really are. If you're in a long-term relationship, this is a good day for rekindling the spark that brought you together in the first place. Harmonious colours are cherry pink and snow white. Lucky numbers are 33 and 23.
 
You're very understanding about other people's little foibles today, and prepared to overlook their transgressions and faults. In fact, you're feeling pretty relaxed all round, even when dealing with anyone who normally drives you round the bend. There's a strong telepathic link between you and someone who's a big part of your life right now, so tune into your intuition and see what it has to tell you. Liberating colours are amethyst and gold. Lucky numbers are 21 and 59.
 
You're charm itself today, especially when dealing with people you really care about. You've got a loved one's best interests at heart and are even prepared to make a few sacrifices for their sake. If you lose your heart to someone you meet for the first time today, your relationship will always be characterized by a deliciously romantic and otherworldly flavour. Exciting colours are azure and opal. Lucky numbers are 35 and 17.
 
You're in a very easy-going and relaxed mood today, and you're eager to see the best in the people around you. If someone has behaved badly towards you lately or let you down in some way, you'll want to give them the benefit of the doubt and show that you forgive them. It's also a good day for getting closer to someone who's older than you and who you respect greatly. Beneficial colours are sunflower yellow and almond. Lucky numbers are 24 and 51.
 
The astrological accent is firmly on your friendships at the moment, and this is another opportunity to increase your social circle. Today, you're attracted to people who are slightly unusual, otherworldly or simply gorgeous. You're in the mood for a little fantasy, so if you can't gaze at your one true love you might want to feast your eyes on your favourite film or rock star instead. Dynamic colours are coffee and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 21.
 
This is a wonderful day for surrounding yourself with like-minded people, whether you're good friends or you share the same ideals and beliefs. Right now you want to see the best in everyone and will do your utmost to make excuses for anyone who doesn't come up to scratch. However, don't let anyone run rings around you simply because you're too kind to stop them. Harmonious colours are shimmering gold and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 33 and 15.
 
You only have eyes for you-know-who and you feel star-struck whenever you look at them. It's a delightfully romantic day and you're ready to be swept off your feet, given half a chance. Why not do something special with this fantastic person, so they know how much you appreciate them? If you're still in the early stages of a new relationship, what happens now will have you skipping for joy. Beneficial colours are mushroom and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 15 and 48.
 
You're very concerned about other people's welfare right now and will happily lend a hand if you think someone needs it. You might even be prepared to make some personal sacrifices if necessary, such as skipping your lunch-hour in order to help someone or run an errand for them. It's easy to get on well with colleagues today, too, as you're happy to take them as you find them. Harmonious colours are pale pink and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 40 and 76.
 
If it's been eyes across a crowded office or factory floor recently, the atmosphere between you and you-know-who will become even more intense and mysterious today. It will be great fun to do some flirting, even if you don't really mean anything by it. This is also a good day for improving the atmosphere between you and anyone who hasn't exactly been your best buddy lately. Dynamic colours are burnt orange and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
 
Remember the song that says if you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with? Well, that's today's astrological message, as the planets get together to remind you of the importance of being kind to everyone you meet. You might even be inspired to donate some money to a favourite charity or to volunteer your services so you can give them some physical help. Ideal colours are bronze and silver. Lucky numbers are 29 and 17.
 
You have a tendency to put people on pedestals today, idolize and revere them. This is especially likely with someone whose achievements you admire and respect, and you won't hear a word against them. There's no harm done if you see them in a more balanced light in a few days' time, but it's not so good if you continue to imagine that they're superhuman in some way. Stabilising colours are russet and apricot. Lucky numbers are 11 and 68.
 
You're still very conscious of feeling lucky and you want to take advantage of this fortunate phase while it lasts. Maybe you should enter a competition or quiz, or try something else that could pay off really well for you. You're in a very gregarious mood this Monday so you won't enjoy spending too much time by yourself. Instead, you want to mix with lots of interesting people. Playful colours are kiwifruit and navy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 20.
 
You're in a hardworking mood this Monday, making it a great start to the week. You want to get things done and don't mind how long they take you, as long as you reach your goal. You'll also get on well with customers and colleagues, simply because you're ready to give them plenty of your valuable time and to listen to what they're telling you. Harmonious colours are magenta and cream. Lucky numbers are 16 and 77.
 
You have a happy knack of getting on well with everyone you meet today. This means you'll have a good time with close friends and loved ones, whether you're doing something special with them or simply enjoying one another's company. If you don't have any social events planned for the rest of the week, get out your diary and start arranging some. You need something to look forward to. Favourable colours are silver and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 38 and 52.
 
Friends are great fun today and you'll be happiest when you're with people who are on the same wavelength as you. You can make some new friends now, purely by being open and receptive to everyone you meet. So look beyond their outward appearance, their accent or the colour of their skin, and discover who they are underneath. Receptive colours are tangerine and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 1 and 42.
 
Get set for three days of enjoyment and happiness, starting today. It's a wonderful beginning to the week and helps to make up for the bad-tempered start to the month. Today you'll find it easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around, whether you can't get enough of their company or you secretly can't stand them. You're a social asset at the moment. Fortunate colours are kiwifruit and platinum. Lucky numbers are 12 and 42.
 
The past few days have been great fun, but you start to slow down a little from today. That may be just as well if you've got to spend the entire day at work. At some point you'll appreciate having some time to yourself, preferably left to your own devices without anyone popping their head round the door and plaintively asking when you're going to start cooking the supper. Empowering colours are blueberry and ivory. Lucky numbers are 34 and 63.
 
You need plenty of mental stimulation at the moment and this is another day in which you'll benefit from lots of changes of scene. Variety is the spice of life for you right now, so try to vary your schedule as much as possible and avoid getting stuck in one place for too long. It's also a good day for chatting to neighbours, close relatives and other people you see on an almost daily basis. Positive colours are bright red and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 25 and 53.
 
You're going through a very sociable and gregarious phase right now, and this is another day when you're keen to make the most of it. It's a super day for getting together with people who have interesting things to say, and you'll be hanging on their every word. You're in the mood for some intellectual conversation that makes you think. Exciting colours are jade and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 32.
 
If you had a really lazy weekend, you'll manage to get yourself back into gear today. Set yourself a few modest goals and get them out of the way first, then look for a bigger target and see if you can achieve that as well. You'll be at your most efficient if you can work at your own pace and, preferably, by yourself. Auspicious colours are champagne and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 12 and 29.
 
You've been having a whale of a time for the past few days but now it's time to start coming down to earth again. You haven't exactly landed with a bump but you do need to pay attention to some practical matters, such as a bit of red tape and your financial arrangements. Don't overlook any bills that should be paid in the next few days because it will be better to pay them now while you remember than to put them off and only remember when it's too late. Empowering colours are jade and ochre. Lucky numbers are 39 and 57.
 
Fancy spending some money on your home or family? Then this is a brilliant day for getting out your purse or wallet, provided that you know where to draw the line. You don't have to spend a fortune to make your home more cosy or comfortable, and even a bunch of flowers will help if you're currently struggling to make ends meet. If you love food, you'll enjoy visiting a market or decent supermarket in search of some good ingredients. Auspicious colours are cinnamon and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
If you neglected your duties yesterday, you'll get a chance to catch up with them today. What's more, you'll take pride in your work and will enjoy feeling that you've got everything sorted out and you're in control again. It's a good day for tackling domestic chores or for tidying things up at work. If you work from home, you'll enjoy making your work space more efficient and comfortable. Auspicious colours are tan and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 6 and 42.
 
It's another day when you'll enjoy having a rest from your usual chores and concerns, especially if you can do so in unfamiliar or exciting surroundings. If you fancy a day out, you'll enjoy visiting somewhere with an educational or spiritual slant, so you can learn something new while having a good time. Ideally, it should be somewhere you've never been to before because that will really stimulate your imagination. Favourable colours are copper and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 73.
 
Once again you're at the top of everyone's popularity list, so enjoy this special weekend while it lasts. Partnerships will blossom now if you let them, whether they're professional, platonic or wildly sexy. You might even declare your feelings for someone. This is heady stuff, but make sure you mean what you say before you say it, otherwise you could be guilty of leading people on. Opportune colours are jade and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 10 and 35.
 
You're feeling lucky this Sunday, especially when dealing with everyday concerns. You might decide to take a risk because you're convinced that it will pay off, but there's a chance that you may push your luck too far and end up with egg on your face. You should also be careful about coming across as over-confident and arrogant, even if this isn't your usual style at all. Ideal colours are cinnamon and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 9 and 25.
 
If you couldn't enjoy yourself as much as you wanted yesterday, try to make up for it today. Put as many chores and duties on hold as possible, and then make a big effort to let your hair down. It's an especially good day for getting together with loved ones, particularly if you can dream up an excuse for a party or celebration. The only problem will lie in knowing when and when to stop. Fortunate colours are passionfruit and black. Lucky numbers are 18 and 14.
 
Once again you're in the mood to splurge. You're feeling so expansive and generous that you don't care how much you spend, especially if you're buying a treat for someone. But don't use money as a way to make yourself more popular or more important because you'll be shooting yourself in the foot. You may even meet someone who thinks this way, and you'll realize how off-putting it is for everyone else. Propitious colours are lemon and navy. Lucky numbers are 33 and 2.
 
This is another day when you long to do as little as possible. However, it may be difficult to do this with a completely clear conscience because you can't help thinking about all those tasks that are still awaiting your attention. You'll also find it hard to resist any edible temptations that are lying around, such as chocolate or alcohol. Fortunate colours are vanilla and olive. Lucky numbers are 16 and 62.
 
Someone's very full of themselves today, boasting about something or being very arrogant. Let them get on with it and don't allow yourself be tempted into competing with them to see who can be more grandiose and vain. Despite this, it promises to be a super day in which you'll want to enjoy yourself at every opportunity. Naughty colours are plum and mango. Lucky numbers are 26 and 59.
 
Beware of taking on too much work or responsibility today. It will seem like a good idea at the time, of course, especially if you're partly doing it to make yourself look good, but later on you'll realize that you've lumbered yourself with more than you can comfortably cope with. You may also have to cope today with someone who's awfully pleased with themselves. It makes you wish you had a pin so you could prick their oversized ego. Practical colours are amethyst and sienna. Lucky numbers are 8 and 61.
 
You're feeling really good this Sunday, which makes a nice change from yesterday's dreary mood. What's more, you consider that you've done quite enough work for one weekend and you're now ready to put your feet up. The only possible snag is that you could easily overdo this, so you ignore important tasks while you relax instead. Beneficial colours are navy and apricot. Lucky numbers are 30 and 58.
 
Once again you're in the mood to make merry, preferably with some of your favourite people to keep you company. It's difficult to know whether they'll lead you down the primrose path to temptation or whether it's the other way round, but you're certainly determined to make it a memorable weekend. Do your best to keep an eye on your expenses, especially if you're short of money at the moment. Energising colours are mauve and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 33 and 39.
 
You're feeling very self indulgent at the moment and once again you're ready to give yourself a few treats. So what do you have in mind? Ideally, you want to do things that are expensive, luxurious and enjoyable, even if they do cost an arm and a leg. But try not to run up a lot of debts because you know you'll have to pay them back sooner or later. Favourable colours are coffee and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 31 and 70.
 
Someone's generosity knows no bounds today. They're being very convivial and gregarious, which makes it great to be around them. If they're also showing off just a teensy little bit then you can probably find it in your heart to forgive them. This is a super day for being with loved ones or taking part in a big social gathering because you'll definitely do your bit to make things go with a swing. Harmonious colours are avocado and tan. Lucky numbers are 6 and 47.
 
Yet again you're feeling angry and irritable today, and you struggle to keep your cool. Well, maybe you should stop struggling and let rip? All the same, don't blow the whole incident out of proportion, or get carried away and say the sort of hurtful things that will make you go hot and cold with embarrassment when you've calmed down. As the proverb goes, least said, soonest mended. Soothing colours are peach and cherry pink. Lucky numbers are 14 and 52.
 
Chores and duties weigh you down today, making you feel like Cinderella before she was allowed to go to the ball. Try delegating some tasks if you think you've been unfairly saddled with too many, or perhaps you could postpone some of them for a few days. You're feeling angry about all this, but reserve your ire for the people who deserve it. Fortunate colours are avocado and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 15 and 48.
 
You're in the mood to have fun today and nothing less will do. With luck, you don't have to do any work and you can indulge yourself by lazing around doing very little. Unless, of course, you've got the urge to go travelling, in which case you'll feel drawn to places in which you can indulge yourself. The prospect of a spur-of-the-moment weekend break may be too tempting to resist. Fortunate colours are spring green and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 7 and 48.
 
Money slips through your fingers like water today, so watch out. Quite simply, you're in the mood to spend, spend, spend, whether or not you can afford it. And you won't really know when to stop, either, because you'll be having so much fun. Try to restrict yourself to a realistic budget or leave your credit cards at home and only take the cash you're allowing yourself to spend. Otherwise, it could be a very expensive trip. Beneficial colours are platinum and gold. Lucky numbers are 4 and 31.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself and being as self-indulgent as possible, and you won't need any persuading to do it. You want to be a hedonist today, even if you're supposed to be doing something very worthy. In fact, the more dreary your scheduled activities are, the more tempted you'll be to go off the rails and have as good a time as you can. A little moderation would be a good thing but, quite frankly, you aren't in the mood for it. Dynamic colours are fudge and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 5 and 16.
 
Some of your relationships haven't been very easy recently but they're a real joy today. Get together with some of your favourite people, or pair up with one special person, and let your hair down. If you've been flirting with you-know-who but wondering if things would ever go any further, you could have your answer now. The question is when you'll be able to catch your breath! Fortunate colours are terracotta and oyster. Lucky numbers are 30 and 66.
 
It's a mixed bag today. Although you're still feeling grumpy after yesterday's squabbles, with a few sharp words for a certain person, you're also in the mood to enjoy yourself. You certainly aren't interested in getting on with lots of hard work so you'll struggle to motivate yourself if you're expected to keep your nose to the grindstone. You'd much rather have fun. Beneficial colours are white and russet. Lucky numbers are 27 and 30.
 
Yesterday's tensions rise a couple of notches today, leaving you with steam coming out of your ears. It's a tense, bad-tempered day in which you vie with others to take the moral high ground and feel superior. Do yourself a favour and avoid conversations that centre around religion or politics because these are almost guaranteed to stir up trouble and get everyone hot under the collar. Steady colours are apricot and dusky rose. Lucky numbers are 19 and 25.
 
This is one of those days when it's almost impossible not to spend money, and plenty of it at that. You could lock yourself indoors, of course, provided you don't have any mail-order catalogues lying around and you don't buy anything on the net either. Even then, you'll probably tell yourself you've run out of milk and will just nip round to the shops, at which point out will come your credit card. It will be downhill all the way from then on, but what fun you'll have in the process. Beneficial colours are honeycomb and dark green. Lucky numbers are 26 and 29.
 
Yesterday's irritations continue and you're in an even more combustible mood today. It's far better to get everything off your chest than to put a brave smile on things and pretend that nothing's wrong because, if you do this, your behaviour and attitude will give the game away and trigger a row. If you do allow yourself to let off steam, though, don't get so worked up that you say and do things that will cause even more trouble. Fabulous colours are ochre and salmon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 72.
 
You're very keen on the idea of relaxing and enjoying yourself today, and you'll try to make that happen even if you've got a stack of work staring you in the face. Ideally, you should get all the chores out of the way before you put your feet up, but that depends on the strength of your willpower and it's definitely looking a bit flimsy! Beneficial colours are ultramarine and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 35 and 72.
 
Money causes problems today because the very subject of cash gets straight up someone's nose. Maybe they think they've got the right to tell you how to spend your money or they believe that they know better than you. It's highly likely that this is all a continuation of yesterday's squabbles, in which case it's about time you sorted out what's really wrong and then cleared the air. But you can't carry on like this. Stabilising colours are caramel and cream. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
The better you know someone the more likely they are to get on your nerves today, which won't make for a very peaceful start to the month. It's a case of familiarity breeding contempt, and there isn't very much you can do about it unless you're able to keep a firm grip on your temper. But is that possible right now? Probably not. If you do blow your top, try to restrict the explosion to a short outburst rather than something that registers on the Richter scale. Receptive colours are white and olive. Lucky numbers are 21 and 59.
 
Someone has got to keep a firm hold over their conversation otherwise they might say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Whether or not it's an April Fool's joke, it won't go down very well and may even cause a bit of a stir. Resist the temptation to make any facetious remarks yourself because what seems like a good idea at the time could turn out to be more trouble than it's worth. Opportune colours are butterscotch and azure. Lucky numbers are 3 and 74.
 
You need to do something exciting and mentally stimulating today, preferably in the company of someone entertaining. Forget about doing things by the book and try to strike out on your own every now and then, unless such actions will cause endless trouble for you. You'll benefit from a change of scene, too, even if it's only for a short spell. Ideal colours are kiwifruit and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 24 and 29.
 
Go carefully today and try to keep everything in proportion, otherwise you could easily get bogged down in tiny details and end up wasting hours going round in circles. This is particularly likely if you're filling in a form, sorting out a health problem or trying to organize a journey, because you'll get caught up in all sorts of nitpicking questions. It's enough to make you lose your temper, and that's quite likely to happen. Ideal colours are aquamarine and violet. Lucky numbers are 23 and 21.
 
You need to be surrounded by plenty of interesting and lively people today otherwise you'll start to feel bored and fed up. Never mind, because it should be surprisingly easy to get together with someone who scintillates and keeps you amused. Make sure you return the favour by brushing up your sparkling wit and doing your best to dazzle. Adventurous colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 31 and 58.
 
There's a clash between your feelings and your rational mind today, leaving you at the mercy of both. Most likely, your feelings will win, leaving you in the grip of intense emotions that just seem to run riot inside you. You'll be most aware of this when you're around people that you know almost as well as you know yourself, and their funny little habits will trigger your irritation and start a slanging match. Fortunate colours are ginger and lilac. Lucky numbers are 22 and 37.
 
The more you care about something or someone, the more likely you are to get your knickers in a twist about it today. Are you letting things get to you unnecessarily or is this the sort of thing that would always wind you up? Try not to get caught up in petty details that don't really mean anything because they'll only encourage you to get even more steamed up. Empowering colours are olive and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 4 and 46.
 
You're feeling rather nervy today, and being on edge will make you prone to losing your temper and leaping to conclusions. Do yourself, and everyone else, a big favour by trying to keep cool, calm and collected even if you feel you're at the mercy of others. A friend could be possessive or nosy, which will be very annoying. Creative colours are peacock blue and sage green. Lucky numbers are 10 and 57.
 
You've got too much to do today, with too many facts and figures to keep in your head. Something's got to give and, at this rate, it's going to be your temper. Write down everything that you've got to do, and also jot down important facts, because you'll drive yourself crazy if you try to remember too many things at once. Then take a few deep breaths and count to ten. Inspiring colours are marzipan and claret. Lucky numbers are 29 and 13.
 
If you're feeling at a bit of a loose end this Friday you'll enjoy cheering yourself up by spending money. Is this a good idea, Aquarius, or should you be saving your cash instead? Try not to splash out recklessly on items that look good at the time but which you know in your heart of hearts you don't really want or need. Ideal colours are dark pink and violet. Lucky numbers are 6 and 39.
 
Harsh words are never far away: you're easily angered, especially by silly little things that you'd normally take in your stride. Try not to get involved in a tit-for-tat battle of words in which you compete with someone to see which of you can utter the most stinging put-down. Being determined to have the last word means this spat will last for longer than necessary. Adventurous colours are white and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 8 and 59.
 
It's not the greatest start to the month because someone is feeling agitated and crotchety. They also seem to be looking for a fight because they keep needling and goading you, waiting for you to start shouting. Or is the boot on the other foot and are you the one who's poised for a row? It's a bad-tempered day and all these verbal spats and quarrels don't make it any easier. Harmonious colours are caramel and cream. Lucky numbers are 16 and 57.
 
Your brain is working really well this Thursday and you've got the confidence to say what you think. It's the perfect combination if you're involved in a discussion or negotiation because you'll be able to make your point without sounding too aggressive. If you're currently involved in a property deal this is a great day for chasing up anyone you're waiting to hear from. Expressive colours are sienna and toffee. Lucky numbers are 32 and 64.
 
You're at your most charming, diplomatic and engaging today, so make the most of it! Get chatting to someone you want to impress, ask out that person who makes your knees go weak, treat your other half to your best seduction routine or simply enjoy spreading a little sunshine wherever you go. It's also a great day for buying yourself a few lovely treats. Empowering colours are tangerine and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 6 and 50.
 
You have enough charm to captivate almost anyone this today, which is very good news if you're hoping to dazzle a certain person and turn them into your devoted slave. You've got sexual chemistry spilling out of every pore, so be careful how you use it. This is also a wonderful day for expressing your creative or artistic side, perhaps by going to the cinema or ballet. Dynamic colours are dark purple and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 17 and 34.
 
Being a Gemini means you're no slouch when it comes to using your brain, and you're at your most efficient and clever today. You'll really enjoy getting involved in an intellectual debate, although no one else will match your brainpower and you may be rather surprised when you win the argument so easily. It's also a great day for presenting your case in a way that everyone understands. Ideal colours are russet and purple. Lucky numbers are 26 and 21.
 
Concentrate on your business contacts today because these will go really well. You'll be able to say the right thing to the right person and everyone will enjoy being around you. If you're currently involved with someone who's much older or younger than you, you'll have a good time with them now and your relationship will benefit in many different ways. Insightful colours are coffee and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 8 and 22.
 
If you get involved in a discussion or intellectual debate you'll find it easy to air your views today. What's more, you'll manage to do so without sounding as though you're looking for a fight, and you'll want to listen to the other person's ideas as well. If you need to chase someone up because they've been dragging their heels, do it today while you can combine a direct approach with diplomacy. Advantageous colours are hazelnut and sparkling gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
If you've been wondering when is a good time to sort out queries over a bill, bank statement or taxation matter, you should take advantage of today's good energies. You'll be able to put across your point of view easily, and you'll be firm but polite if you suspect someone is trying to mess you about. You'll get results, and they could happen quicker than you expected. Harmonious colours are silvery pink and lavender. Lucky numbers are 22 and 41.
 
Once again you're top of everyone's list of their favourite people, so enjoy it while it lasts. Arrange to go out with one special person or get together with the gang. If you're meeting someone and you're desperate to impress them, there will be nothing to worry about provided that you don't try too hard. Be your usual charming self, and all will be well. Vibrant colours are dark pink and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 12 and 52.
 
Romance is in the air and if you play your cards right you'll have a deliciously amorous day. But don't sit back waiting for you-know- who to make the first move because then it might never happen. Make some naughty suggestions to your beloved or arrange a dinner date for the two of you. If you're single at the moment you'll get just as much happiness from being with some of your favourite people. Uplifting colours are topaz and colours. Lucky numbers are 1 and 73.
 
End the month on an enjoyable, comfortable note. Once again you're in the mood to be with people you know almost as well as you know yourself, and also to stay close to home. But you're also feeling quite sociable, so how about inviting a close friend or family member round for a meal, or going over to their place? If you're house-hunting today you'll be turned off by anything that's very wacky or which doesn't look right. Creative colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 19 and 57.
 
This is a fantastic day for being brave and saying what you think. You won't have to be very aggressive or confrontational about it, either, which will come as a relief. If you're currently negotiating a deal, you'll be able to put forward your point of view and stand your ground without going weak at the knees or caving in at the first hint of opposition. Make the most of it while it lasts! Happy colours are sage and lazuli. Lucky numbers are 29 and 4.
 
It's a wonderful end to the month because you're in a great mood and everyone enjoys being around you. And who can blame them? You'll also enjoy spending some money, especially if you're buying items that will flatter you or make you feel good. If you want to buy a present for someone special you'll enjoy taking the time to track down the perfect item. Opportunistic colours are silvery green and raspberry. Lucky numbers are 36 and 72.
 
This is a great day for getting on with your work because you're in a very practical and efficient frame of mind. Start with whatever is the greatest priority and then work your way down the list. If you're taking part in a meeting or interview it will be very easy to hit it off with the other people while giving them a good impression of your abilities. Harmonious colours are shell pink and platinum. Lucky numbers are 35 and 30.
 
It would be a shame to deprive others of your scintillating company today because you're in really good form. You're funny, graceful and polite, and you'll enjoy keeping everyone amused. Try to get together with others because you'll feel as though something's missing if you have to spend too much time on your own. If you haven't spoken to a near neighbour recently, give them a call to see how they are. Ideal colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 12 and 61.
 
All your relationships go well today, thanks to your ability to hit it off with everyone you meet. You'll have a cheery smile and a kind word for everyone, whether you know them or they're a total stranger. Mind you, someone you meet for the first time now may not be a stranger for long because you're being so engaging and friendly. Liberating colours are russet and golden brown. Lucky numbers are 8 and 77.
 
You're at your most loving and affectionate today, and you'll enjoy proving it. This is the perfect day for giving a loved one a special treat and it doesn't have to cost a fortune, provided that it comes from the heart. You might also be able to resolve a long-standing problem with someone, simply by discussing it and listening to each other's point of view. Communicative colours are sea green and lemon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 23.
 
It's another day when you're all geared up to enjoy yourself and nothing less will do. You should try to fit in a social event at some point, partly because you're on scintillating form at the moment and it's a shame to deprive everyone of the pleasure of your company, and partly because you'll enjoy it so much. Visiting the cinema or theatre will go down well too. Propitious colours are marmalade and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 23 and 41.
 
It would be a shame to spend too much time working your socks off today because you'll be much happier when you're having fun. It's the sort of day when you're really only interested in being sociable and gregarious, so try to fix up something nice if you didn't have anything planned. Meet someone for a quick drink, go out for a meal or get together with some kindred spirits. Stabilising colours are spring green and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 35.
 
Today you'll enjoy being with people you know very well. You'll feel far safer with them than with strangers, and you'll also like the sense of familiarity and comfort you get from them. If you're thinking of investing money in your home, or you're even considering a change of residence, this is a good day to weigh up your options and discuss them with the people concerned. Fortunate colours are dark chocolate and pastel blue. Lucky numbers are 32 and 38.
 
The more time you can spend on activities that you enjoy today, the happier and more satisfied you'll be. If you're at work you'll take real pride in what you do and will want it to reflect well on you. There could be good news about a pay rise or perk, too, or you might hear about a new job that sounds as though it was designed for you. Lively colours are turquoise and avocado. Lucky numbers are 21 and 52.
 
You're full of the spirit of adventure this Wednesday, so do something exciting or challenging. Why not try an activity for the first time, or push yourself into achieving something that you would normally never consider. You're also thirsty for knowledge, whether that means burying your nose in a book, enrolling in a course or surfing the net. Expansive colours are bright red and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 31 and 22.
 
Home is where your heart is today, so try to stay in familiar surroundings whenever possible. You might even decide that you'd prefer to stay cosily at home than to go out as you originally intended. You'll also appreciate having some time to yourself, especially if this gives you the chance to think or mull over what's been happening to you recently. Ideal colours are white and apricot. Lucky numbers are 37 and 34.
 
Do something that makes you feel good about yourself today. This could be anything from doing a really good job at work to helping an elderly person deal with their problems. If you've been trying to sort out a bureaucratic tangle but haven't got very far, give it another try today because you could have better luck. Fortunate colours are indigo and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 24 and 43.
 
This is a delightful day because you're feeling really cheerful and gregarious. It's great for being with some of your favourite people, especially if you're doing something enjoyable together. There could also be news of a forthcoming long-distance journey, whether you're the one who'll be travelling or someone is coming to visit you. Lively colours are plum and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 74.
 
You have quite a way with words this Tuesday, especially when getting to grips with red tape, so make the most of this opportunity to sweet-talk others. All the same, you should be wary about taking someone's word for anything important because something could go wrong. You can be businesslike but diplomatic at the same time. Beneficial colours are beige and avocado. Lucky numbers are 2 and 11.
 
It's a wonderful day for telling someone how much they mean to you, so don't be tongue-tied. This is especially important if you're normally rather reticent about such matters, because friends and loved ones will really value your declarations of affection. You might also receive a delightful invitation from a chum or associate, or hear some marvellous news. Positive colours are kiwifruit and olive. Lucky numbers are 30 and 65.
 
It's a shame if you're supposed to be doing lots of work today because it's the last thing on your mind. What's the first? Well, anything to do with enjoyment, fun and pleasure. Ideally, you should express yourself through a creative or artistic pursuit, such as painting or writing. Even talking to a friend and making them laugh will make you feel good. Ideal colours are bronze and lilac. Lucky numbers are 8 and 28.
 
As an Arien you're idealistic, and today finds you wearing a great big pair of rose coloured glasses. There's nothing wrong with this, provided that you whip them off some time soon and see things as they really are, but it could cause problems if you continue to take an unrealistic view of a current situation because you'll be heading for a massive disappointment. Harmonious colours are rose pink and aqua. Lucky numbers are 10 and 62.
 
Keep your ear close to the ground because you could hear something very nice. Someone might pay you a big compliment in passing, or you could be given a delightful piece of news that has to remain a secret for the moment. If you're currently wondering whether to pursue a hush-hush relationship, you'll find it almost impossible to resist this Tuesday. Favourable colours are copper and jet black. Lucky numbers are 28 and 72.
 
Ask someone a question today and settle back while they give you a long, long answer. Yes, it's one of those days when people are extremely talkative and it's difficult to extricate yourself once they get going. But maybe you won't want to, as you'll hear information that fascinates you. You're in the mood to talk to people who live far away, but watch the phone bill if you're the one who makes the call. Auspicious colours are coffee and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 17 and 64.
 
Would you like to know a colleague better? Then get talking to them today and see what happens. You might break the ice so much that you feel confident in asking them out for a drink or whatever else you have in mind. This is also a very good day for talking yourself out of tight spots, because you'll manage to combine mental agility with exactly the right words. How do you do it? Uplifting colours are opal and peach. Lucky numbers are 1 and 37.
 
After the tears and tantrums of the past few days, today's easy going atmosphere will come as a tremendous relief to you. You'll manage to put people at their ease and you may even be able to gloss over your recent spats with you-know-who. If things are still tricky, distract yourself by chucking out some clutter or looking through your treasured keepsakes to remind yourself that times aren't always as tough as this. Dazzling colours are banana yellow and violet. Lucky numbers are 2 and 17.
 
Someone has quite a way with words today. Listening to them is like attending a masterclass in the art of diplomacy. Watch out, though, if you've got something that they want because they'll probably talk you out of it in no time at all. This is a very smooth operator who knows exactly what they're doing, so don't let them get the better of you if the two of you are involved in any form of deal. Communicative colours are cream and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 29 and 19.
 
This is a marvellous day for taking part in a negotiation or discussion because you're so eager to see the other person's point of view and to listen to what they have to say. You're eager to see fair play, too. However, don't shoot yourself in the foot by being so quick to agree to other people's demands that you miss out in some way. There's a big difference between being fair and being fooled. Liberating colours are white and red satin. Lucky numbers are 17 and 53.
 
You'll really enjoy talking about the things that mean a lot to you today, no matter what or who they are. You're also in a very tactful frame of mind, making it easy to say the right thing to the right person at the right time. If only every day were this simple and enjoyable! Well, it isn't, so make the most of this happy phase while it lasts. Ideal colours are brass and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 24 and 3.
 
Let someone know how you feel this Tuesday, especially if you want to talk about your deepest, darkest emotions. However, you must know when to stop otherwise you'll end up giving a monologue and you'll lose the interest and sympathy of the other person. If someone confides in you, you must make sure that you'll keep their secrets. If you can't do this, you should say so at the start of the conversation. Auspicious colours are fawn and ochre. Lucky numbers are 20 and 27.
 
You're in a bit of a hurry today, aren't you? You want everything done in double-quick time, which could be a problem if you have to deal with someone who can't match your pace. You'll soon get irritated with them, which will make them all fingers and thumbs, and then you'll get even more cross than you were already. So maybe you should ease off the pressure a little? Even if it's really urgent you won't help matters by turning bright red and yelling your head off. Powerful colours are plum and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 2 and 9.
 
A potent cocktail of nervous energy and adrenalin is swirling around your system and it needs to be released in positive ways, otherwise you'll soon start to climb the walls. Get as much exercise as possible and try to introduce plenty of variety into your schedule. You should also be careful when handling hot or sharp objects in case you become accident-prone. Inspirational colours are grape and brass. Lucky numbers are 11 and 67.
 
There are two things guaranteed to get right up your nose today- money and romance. Maybe they'll come together with a nasty clash when you disagree with a loved one about what they can spend their money on or you disapprove of their values. Is this the only thing that's bugging you or is something else at the bottom of your current bad mood? Passionate colours are chestnut and ivory. Lucky numbers are 66 and 41.
 
Someone is dashing around like a cat chasing their tail, but how much progress are they making? They're probably spending more energy on being in a hurry than they are on the activities they're involved in, so they'll end up feeling frazzled and tired without having achieved very much. Take note if this sounds like you, because you'll find it very frustrating and will take out your anger on whoever happens to be with you at the time. Which is hardly fair, is it? Ideal colours are cinnamon and ivory. Lucky numbers are 28 and 38.
 
Money is likely to be a source of friction today, especially if a certain someone is feeling very envious. There could also be tension if you owe a friend some money because they'll be agitating to get it back. If you don't think much of a mate's partner, this is not the day to say so unless you want to have a blazing row about it. Beneficial colours are golden honey and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 29 and 62.
 
The atmosphere between you and the rest of the family is anything but restful this Monday. Someone seems to be on the warpath and they won't relax until they've had at least one good argument. This will be rather trying if you're on the receiving end of their bad temper, but there's a strong chance that you're actually provoking them in some way. Maybe you'd like an argument too but you don't like to admit it to yourself? Beneficial colours are emerald green and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
 
Someone is being very direct and to the point, and before long you may decide that they're being far too blunt for your tastes. However, there could be reasons why you can't stick up for yourself, perhaps because you're so intimidated by this person or because you simply haven't got the energy to confront them. This will make you even angrier, so take care. Beneficial colours are grape and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 39 and 9.
 
If you're a typical Sagittarian you don't like it when things are too ordered and predictable, but you aren't good with complete chaos, either. Well, today should suit you down to the ground because you'll have just the right blend of surprises and predictability. Someone dear to your heart will keep you amused and entertained, but without making you want to tear your hair out or lock them in a darkened room. Prosperous colours are spring green and rust brown. Lucky numbers are 33 and 77.
 
Try to avoid mixing money and friends unless you want to have a shouting match. That's because someone isn't being very reasonable or fair. Now, before you point your finger at the other person, you should bear in mind that you might be the one who's at fault. Could this be possible? Are you bearing a grudge about something or determined to prove your point, no matter how disruptive this tactic turns out to be? Harmonious colours are mulberry and dark grey. Lucky numbers are 5 and 75.
 
You long for some excitement in your life today and it certainly looks that way, even if you aren't expecting anything to happen. Ideally, you should do things on the spur of the moment so you feel spontaneous and free. Visit somewhere you've never been to before or talk to someone who has a completely different take on life to yours. Fortunate colours are cream and magenta. Lucky numbers are 27 and 9.
 
There's only so much of the same old routine that you can take and you're quickly reaching your limit. So try to do something different at some point today, even if it's only altering your usual lunchtime menu. If you haven't got anything to look forward to you should organize something pronto. How about a short holiday or a visit to a far-off friend? The idea of travel really appeals right now. Favourable colours are passionfruit and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 21 and 72.
 
Someone dear to your heart is in a terrible mood. They're aggressive, scratchy and only too quick to jump down your throat. What's bugging them and does your behaviour have anything to do with it? Make sure that you aren't winding them up and then being outraged at the consequences. You obviously need to have it out with them but don't say things that will make the situation worse than it already is. Expressive colours are blackberry and plum. Lucky numbers are 1 and 2.
 
You have to cope with a frosty atmosphere between you and a loved one today, and it's making you miserable. Maybe the real problem is that this person is too busy to spare you the time you need but you've interpreted this in the worst possible light and have convinced yourself that they don't care about you. Do something that boosts your self-esteem so you don't feel that your happiness is completely dependent on the approval of others. Advantageous colours are cherry pink and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 37 and 11.
 
What's up? You feel as though you're stuck out on a limb today, with no one on your side. It's a lonely feeling and it would be easy to feel sorry for yourself, but you aren't prepared to do that. Instead, you prefer to show that you're taking everything in your stride even if you're crying inside. Do something that boosts your self-esteem so you're less dependent on other people's good opinions of you. Opportunistic colours are crimson and ebony. Lucky numbers are 12 and 10.
 
Make an effort to stay cheerful and positive today, otherwise difficult circumstances or fleeting problems will make your spirits sink through the floor. You may also be feeling slightly under the weather, in which case you should pamper yourself. It will be a good idea to keep away from anyone who's obviously germ-laden because you don't want to catch what they've got. Auspicious colours are plum and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 78.
 
Someone is in a very disapproving mood and unfortunately they seem to be looking straight in your direction. What have you done that's annoyed them so much? You may also be feeling rather lonely this Sunday, perhaps because a special someone is a long way away and you've been left to your own devices. Even if they're with you in person you'll feel that they're absent emotionally. Try not to make a big thing of it unless it's happened once too often lately. Propitious colours are silver and black velvet. Lucky numbers are 16 and 71.
 
Someone is suffering from a Cinderella complex, making them behave like a drudge and a martyr. Maybe they've effectively chained themselves to the kitchen sink or they're claiming that they've got too much work to go out and have fun. Try to talk to them because they're probably having a miserable time and have allowed everything to get on top of them. Beneficial colours are amethyst and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 30 and 25.
 
The past couple of days haven't exactly been plain sailing, so it's time to navigate your way into calmer waters. If you're worn out by arguments and squabbles, try to discuss what's wrong with the person concerned. You may discover that it's a very minor problem that's easily sorted out. Make an effort to listen to the other person without judging what they're saying. Favourable colours are aubergine and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 16 and 76.
 
Something is on your mind and it's bugging you. What is it you're so worried about? Although there may be all sorts of laudable reasons why you don't want to burden anyone else with your problems, the fact is that your worries will only eat away at you while you keep them to yourself. Confiding your woes in someone will help you to put them in their proper perspective and may even lead to you finding a solution to them. Favourable colours are emerald green and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 20 and 57.
 
Maybe you're in the dog house for the way you behaved yesterday or you're separated from a loved one, but you're definitely feeling rather sorry for yourself. In fact, things seem pretty bleak to you and you may wish you could go back to bed and pull the covers over your head. Are things really this bad? Probably not, so try not to mope and brood. Fortunate colours are ultramarine and ivory. Lucky numbers are 16 and 15.
 
The atmosphere between you and a certain person is dicey today. Maybe they're still in high dudgeon because you lost your rag with them yesterday, or they're in a self-contained mood that makes you feel left out in the cold. Try not to apportion blame or become emotionally distant yourself because that will only make matters worse. Keep calm and it will all blow over before you know it. Empowering colours are maroon and bronze. Lucky numbers are 19 and 30.
 
Have a chat with a loved one this Sunday. You don't have to talk about anything very earth-shattering. You simply need to talk to them about whatever is uppermost in both your minds at the moment. You might also be able to help this person sort out a problem that's been bugging them recently. If you've got some spare time after all that, you'll enjoy getting involved in a puzzle, quiz, jigsaw or anything else that will test your brainpower. Lucky colours are parchment and oyster. Lucky numbers are 14 and 29.
 
Once again it's a good day for being with friends, although today you're in a slightly more serious mood and will enjoy talking about ideas that really make you think. If there's been a misunderstanding with a friend recently, or some other sort of glitch in your relationship, this is the perfect opportunity for making amends and showing that you're ready to start again. If the other person was at fault, don't rub salt into the wounds but show that there are no hard feelings. Favourable colours are golden honey and pale chocolate. Lucky numbers are 15 and 10.
 
You're still in a money-minded mood, and today you're feeling rather down in the mouth about it all. Perhaps you're counting the cost of yesterday's spending spree or feeling racked with guilt about how much you spent. If you've arranged to meet a friend there could be a delay, or even a postponement, to your plans, which will disappoint you. Delightful colours are mother of pearl and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 26.
 
Once again it's the financial picture that you need to look at. If you feel like going shopping you should try to keep a running total of what you spend, otherwise you might lose track and have a nasty shock later on. There could also be a disagreement with a loved one over how much money you've spent or what to do with the joint account. Beneficial colours are violet and cream. Lucky numbers are 38 and 34.
 
The tensions of yesterday's Full Moon start to get to you today, creating a lot of fuss about some facts. Maybe you need to find the truth about something that has been confused until now, or you suspect that someone has been inflating and exaggerating their story. Once again, you need to keep calm and not create a major crisis out of a minor problem. Fortunate colours are golden honey and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 29 and 57.
 
You need plenty of privacy today and ideally you should be left to yourself at some point. It's not that you're feeling antisocial because you'll have a wonderful time with that special person in your life, it's simply that you don't want the world and his wife to tag along as well. What's wrong with that? Nothing, provided that you do it without hurting anyone's feelings. Ideal colours are burnt orange and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 20.
 
Someone is in a very picky and pernickety mood today, making them liable to go off pop at a moment's notice. It could seem as though they object to everything you say, or they pick holes in your remarks, or maybe you're the one who's so quick to point the finger. Try not to let these petty irritations get under your skin. Are they really worth getting in such a state? Ideal colours are dark gold and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 21 and 38.
 
It's easy to get bogged down in petty details today, especially anything connected with bureaucracy, such as filling in an official form. Do your best to stick to the facts and not get sidetracked by all sorts of things that don't really matter. You should also be careful when talking to loved ones as it will be tempting to fly off the handle and start a row. Inspiring colours are mango and dark marmalade. Lucky numbers are 9 and 59.
 
Whatever else you're doing you'll appreciate having some time to yourself at some point today. Maybe you could stay at home while the rest of the family go out, but even if the only chance of being alone for long is while you're lying in the bath you should make the most of it. You're in rather a sentimental mood this Saturday and will enjoy curling up with a film or book that always tugs at your heartstrings. Advantageous colours are parchment and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 27 and 68.
 
A friend is great company this Saturday. They'll make you laugh, help you to see things from a fresh perspective, and generally cheer you up. If you've got the time you'll enjoy immersing yourself in a favourite hobby, whether you do it with other people or by yourself. You might also get involved in an intellectual debate that stretches your brain and makes you reason things out in order to put across a clever argument. Favourable colours are scarlet and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 33 and 47.
 
Make the most of today's positive attitude because it will help you in all sorts of ways. For a start, it will make you feel cheerful and fun-loving, which will increase your popularity and put you in an excellent mood. And that could attract some lucky breaks. So keep smiling! If you've been stuck in one place for too long recently, the thought of travel could be really tempting. Even a day trip will be better than nothing. Fortunate colours are moonlight blue and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 28 and 43.
 
You're a walking advert for optimism today and you'll inspire everyone around you to feel equally positive and cheerful. That's great, provided that you don't fall into the trap of kidding yourself about something or deliberately ignoring the great big fly in your tiny pot of ointment. You'll enjoy having a change of scene at some point, especially if you visit somewhere that makes you think. Positive colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 12 and 59.
 
You're in a rather a lazy and self-indulgent mood this Saturday, and you're hoping to take things as gently as possible. You certainly aren't keen on the thought of vigorous exercise, and lying on the sofa is a much more appealing prospect than sweating it out at the gym. If you're meant to be on a diet you'll struggle to maintain your good intentions. Ideal colours are dark red and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 14 and 55.
 
All your logical thought processes fly out the window today, leaving you liable to jump to hasty conclusions and make snap decisions about whether or not you like someone. Do your best to be aware of what's going on so you can have some control over your thoughts. You may also have a rather testy and heated discussion with a loved one that's best forgotten as quickly as possible. Ideal colours are passionfruit and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 16 and 77.
 
Today's mood underlines the message of yesterday's Full Moon, once again putting you on tenterhooks and generally making you feel nervy. As a result, you'll let little things assume monumental proportions, so you lose your usual sense of perspective and start to get caught up in all sorts of nit-picking details. Give yourself plenty of breaks if you're concentrating on a fiddly task otherwise you'll start to make silly mistakes. Auspicious colours are plum and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 37.
 
It's a great day to indulge your social life. You're in a gregarious and high spirited mood, making you good fun to be around. You're also feeling quite flirtatious, which is just what you need if you want to chat someone up. Actually, you'll put a lot of energy into anything you choose to do now, provided that it interests you in the first place. Propitious colours are dark red and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 25 and 64.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on your communications during the next two weeks. It might make you think seriously about something that's close to home, such as a child's education or a neighbourhood issue. This will also be a good time to clear up recent misunderstandings with someone so you can set the record straight. Throughout all this, do your best to remain calm and not to let anything get on top of you. Ideal colours are pale pink and mango. Lucky numbers are 27 and 54.
 
Your relationships are highlighted by today's Full Moon, bringing any difficulties and tensions to a climax. The atmosphere between you and your other half could be more fraught than usual because you need to adjust to one another's current moods. Make this an opportunity to resolve, or at least to understand, your differences, so you can live together more harmoniously. Fortunate colours are white and caramel. Lucky numbers are 39 and 32.
 
Full Moons are always a time of endings and for tidying up loose ends, and that's exactly what you should be doing with your finances during the next two weeks. Don't ignore any problems because they'll only get worse before blowing up in your face. In fact, a little well-timed troubleshooting now will save you a lot of hassle and worry later on. Beneficial colours are russet and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 18 and 57.
 
If you're a single Taurean looking for love, you could very well find it today if you mix with people who are older or more powerful than you. For instance, you could be very attracted to a boss or supervisor, and there's even a chance that you'll begin a relationship that has to stay a secret. Whatever the state of your heart, you'll enjoy having some time to yourself at some point. Inspirational colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 27 and 12.
 
You're keen to hit it off with everyone you meet today and you'll make a big effort to do so. This means that even if you're with someone who usually winds you up you'll manage to swallow your feelings and be friendly to them. You've got plenty of energy too, and you'll enjoy being busy around your house or garden, especially if you're making some improvements or adornments. Inspirational colours are ebony and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 3 and 75.
 
It's one of those days when you have plenty of energy for the things you want to do but almost none for anything that smacks of hard work or duty. Well, you're laughing if you can successfully avoid all the things you don't want to do because you'll have a really good time. However, if there's no getting round doing some work, you'll have to psych yourself up to it and do the best you can. Give yourself a reward by arranging to do something nice later on. Auspicious colours are persimmon and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 38 and 25.
 
What will today's Full Moon bring you over the next two weeks? Well, it's telling you that you need to sort out a problem with a loved one before it gets any worse. It's also encouraging you to put the finishing touches to any creative projects that you've been involved with recently, so you can bask in the warm glow of success for a while before moving on to something new. Auspicious colours are bronze and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 3 and 74.
 
You're feeling very playful, especially when you're with that special someone. It's the perfect excuse for going out on the town together, so how about going dancing or visiting your favourite restaurant? If you're a sporty Sagittarian you'll enjoy burning off some energy in the gym or squash court, and you'll be determined to beat everyone else hollow. Fortunate colours are mandarin and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 37 and 9.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on you over the next two weeks because it's asking you to examine your life in detail and decide whether any facet of it needs to be changed or improved. Perhaps it's time to rid yourself of something that is holding you back from achieving your true potential, whether it's an attitude, a habit or a relationship. Be prepared to do some soul-searching. Harmonious colours are teal blue and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 12 and 58.
 
Today's Full Moon highlights the current imbalance between the demands of your home and work. Something's got to give, and at this rate it will be your temper unless you can stop feeling like a seesaw as you swing between your family commitments and the demands of your job. You may also have to accept that an episode from your past is now ancient history. Ideal colours are peach and sage green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 64.
 
Full Moons often feel like a time of crisis and today's certainly does. You need to make a decision about something that affects your home or working life, but there are lots of factors involved which is why it all feels so complicated and highly charged. This could also be a testing time in your career, when recent hard work is evaluated and you are judged accordingly. Passionate colours are silver and ochre. Lucky numbers are 7 and 63.
 
What a difference a day makes! You're in a much more sober and restrained mood today, and you're looking for people who are behaving in the same way. It's an excellent day for going shopping because you're in a thrifty mood and won't squander your cash. Instead, you'll look for bargains and for items that represent good value for money. Favourable colours are silver and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 33 and 6.
 
You're in a serious mood and aren't interested in fripperies or trivialities this Thursday. Instead, you need to work at your own pace on things that you consider to be important. It's a very good day for making plans about your career or a long-term ambition. You might also have a thought-provoking and constructive conversation with someone you respect and admire, especially if it's conducted behind closed doors. Expressive colours are pumpkin and lemon. Lucky numbers are 11 and 13.
 
Someone has some very constructive and sensible advice for you today, so listen carefully. They aren't in a finger-wagging mood, so there's no need to worry that you're going to be ticked off. It's also a great day for learning something new about the world, whether you do it informally or in a class full of fellow students. You'll enjoy giving your brain some exercise. Fortunate colours are aquamarine and onyx. Lucky numbers are 8 and 56.
 
Bring out your practical streak this Thursday, whether you're at home or at work. It's exactly the right day for getting to grips with tasks and jobs that have been hanging around, partly so you can do them properly and partly so you can salve your conscience and stop feeling guilty about them. You might also give a colleague some good advice, or hear some useful information about a financial matter. Favourable colours are mauve and violet. Lucky numbers are 28 and 3.
 
After yesterday's mayhem you're anxious to get things back on an even keel, and the good news is that you should be able to manage this quite easily. Simply take things one at a time, and follow them through to completion before switching to the next task. It will pay dividends now to be methodical, even if that isn't the way you usually like to do things. Beneficial colours are sky blue and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 2 and 43.
 
If you went overboard yesterday you'll want to make up for it today by being much more prudent and economical. You might even decide to return some purchases to the shops where you bought them so you can get your money back. Even if you didn't blot your financial copybook yesterday this is a good day for going through your accounts or balancing your chequebook. Positive colours are kiwifruit and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 44.
 
If yesterday was very difficult, do your best to make amends this Thursday. You can start by apologizing, if you think that's necessary, or by setting the record straight in some way. You're full of common sense and logic today, so you'll instinctively know what to do or say. It's also an excellent day for sorting out a bureaucratic or financial matter, especially if you need to get on the phone or write a letter. Stabilising colours are mustard yellow and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 12 and 68.
 
It's a great day for being with people you care about because you'll really value their company and the input they give you. You might have a long chat about something that you both consider to be important, or one of you might give the other one lots of advice. If your relationship is still in its early days you'll help it to grow by spending time with one another this Thursday. Beneficial colours are terracotta and plum. Lucky numbers are 31 and 76.
 
You're in a practical and organized frame of mind, so make the most of it. You might want to start by rearranging any social events that failed to happen yesterday. A loved one may need your help, even though they could be reluctant to ask for it, so keep an eye on what's going on around you and then volunteer your services if you think they're necessary. Uplifting colours are silvery orange and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 4 and 31.
 
You'll enjoy working on something that stretches your brain today, especially if it has intellectual overtones. What's important is to do some deep thinking because you'll find it very satisfying. If you've been wondering about taking an evening course or correspondence course, you might be inspired to fill in the appropriate forms and send them off. Uplifting colours are dark grey and apricot. Lucky numbers are 20 and 60.
 
If you want to make the most of today you should work out your strategy ahead of time. You're reluctant to waste time by doing things twice or retracing your steps, so you should devise an efficient plan of campaign. It's also a good day for writing an important letter or filling in forms, because you'll find it easy to concentrate on what you're doing. Advantageous colours are lemon and velvety black. Lucky numbers are 9 and 42.
 
Friends are very helpful today and one will give you some good advice. You'll enjoy being with your mates even if you don't want one of them to help you solve your problems, but there will be quite a serious atmosphere between you. You're more likely to want to talk about something important than to have a frivolous chat about anything and everything. Favourable colours are smoky purple and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 8 and 32.
 
Don't believe everything you hear today because someone may be deliberately trying to get a rise out of you. Maybe they're making statements that are designed to make you blow your top, especially if they don't really mean what they're saying. Will you give them the satisfaction of rising to the bait or will you manage to play it cool? There will also be problems over what constitutes the truth. Stabilising colours are strawberry and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 30 and 75.
 
You'll need all your patience when dealing with someone today. They're being contrary and awkward, and ready to argue the toss with you at every turn. But hang on a minute. What makes you so sure it's all the other person's fault and that you're entirely innocent of all charges? Perhaps you're also being rather disruptive or tricky at the moment, even though you don't like to admit it to yourself? Dynamic colours are magenta and champagne. Lucky numbers are 18 and 61.
 
You're in a very excitable and jumpy state, so beware. You need plenty of stimulus and variety this Wednesday, and if you don't get it you'll try to create it. The trouble is that you may well cause havoc in the process, because right now you've got such a strong desire to kick over the traces and shock everyone. So watch it when talking to anyone who's very straitlaced! Dynamic colours are shimmering gold and plum. Lucky numbers are 29 and 41.
 
Someone's brain is working so fast that you can barely keep up with their thought processes today. They might be talking much more quickly than normal, hopping from subject to subject, or hatching lots of clever ideas. It's fun to be with this person at first but their company could soon start to grate, because it's impossible to relax while they're so buzzy and hyped up. Fortunate colours are amber and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 23 and 70.
 
Routine arrangements have a nasty habit of going haywire today. Something that you can usually do with your eyes closed may become an unexpected problem, or a well-tried system may break down for no good reason. The more wedded you are to your routine, the more trying today's events will be. You may also have to cope with a colleague or employee whose mind isn't on their job. Auspicious colours are jade and fawn. Lucky numbers are 36 and 77.
 
There's no knowing what a certain person will get up to today. All you can be sure of is that they'll take you by surprise and may even shock you in some way. Do your best to take things as they come and not get all flustered by this person's antics, especially if you suspect that they're being deliberately controversial in order to wind you up. They'll soon stop when they realize they aren't getting a rise out of you. Auspicious colours are auburn and saffron. Lucky numbers are 13 and 75.
 
Not everything goes according to plan today, so bear that in mind if you've arranged to meet someone because they might not turn up at the right place or time. Even if they do appear, they could be in a weird mood or suggest doing something that you don't fancy. Speaking of fancying, at some point you might meet someone who's sexy but slightly off-putting at the same time. Maybe that's their big attraction? Harmonious colours are caramel and lilac. Lucky numbers are 24 and 58.
 
The more bored or fed up you feel today, the greater the likelihood of spending money to entertain yourself. And you won't be content with a quick trip round the supermarket or buying some petrol, either. Instead, you'll want to splash out on all sorts of impulse buys, whether you need them or not. Try to limit the damage if you're supposed to be saving your money rather than spending it. Calming colours are fuchsia and ginger. Lucky numbers are 21 and 9.
 
It's a disruptive day and it looks as though there isn't much you can do about it. So try to keep calm if arrangements start to unravel, someone lets you down or nothing goes right. There could also be a difficult experience with someone who's older or more powerful than you, perhaps because you feel very rebellious if they want you to carry out their orders. Be careful because it isn't a good day to rub people up the wrong way. Uplifting colours are turquoise and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 39 and 34.
 
You may have to forget about following pre-arranged plans today when they start to come apart at the seams. For instance, if you were going to meet a friend they may ring up at the last minute and change all the arrangements, or you might plan a trip to the cinema only to discover that the film you wanted to see is no longer being screened. It's irritating but it isn't the end of the world, so try to go with the flow. Propitious colours are lavender and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 2 and 68.
 
There's a difference of opinion today between you and someone over what you both think is worth spending money on. You have very different viewpoints right now, and there's so much strength of feeling that you're both tempted to dig your heels in and refuse to back down. But where will that get you? Don't feel compelled to do something outrageous or controversial simply to make your point. It really isn't worth it! Beneficial colours are smoky purple and jade. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
It's important to vary your routine as much as possible today, otherwise you'll quickly get bored and restless. This is especially true if you're doing something very mundane and mechanical, because you'll end up wanting to scream. Mind you, there could be some hitches that will liven things up a little, such as a piece of technology breaking down or a colleague misbehaving. Stabilising colours are mauve and sable. Lucky numbers are 11 and 49.
 
The next few weeks are the perfect opportunity to lavish time, energy and money on yourself, especially if you want to improve your health or general well-being in some way. Maybe you should treat yourself to a series of aromatherapy massages or a pedicure, or anything else that makes you feel relaxed and pampered. But be careful if you're supposed to be on a diet because you'll be much more interested in eating every tempting morsel you can get your hands on. Favourable colours are silver and peach. Lucky numbers are 37 and 21.
 
Watch out for Cupid during the next few weeks because he won't be far away! He might even get you fair and square with his arrow, so you fall in love with someone. This will also be a phase in which you want to enjoy yourself as much as possible, making you choose pleasure over work every time. That's fine, provided that you don't duck out of important commitments because you can't be bothered with them. Romantic colours are purple and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 29 and 78.
 
Money! That's the main theme for the next four weeks, and from today you'll enjoy thinking about what you can spend your cash on. You may not feel compelled to part with every penny but you'll certainly enjoy buying yourself the odd little treat every now and then. You should also devote plenty of time to the people and activities that make your world go round. Stable colours are cinnamon and olive. Lucky numbers are 26 and 42.
 
Give yourself a treat and try to devote as much time as possible to your social life during the next few weeks. It will do you good to be with like-minded people, and you'll get great emotional satisfaction from knowing that you're on the same wavelength. If you seem to have lost touch with lots of your friends, either make contact again or set about creating a new social circle. Fortunate colours are aubergine and tan. Lucky numbers are 22 and 42.
 
You have friends in high places from today, so don't be surprised if someone pulls a few strings for you during the coming month. You shouldn't suck up to this person and make them suspect your motives, but you should certainly show that you appreciate what they're doing for you. If you fall in love with someone between now and mid April there could be a noticeable age gap between you. Inspirational colours are dark gold and pale apricot. Lucky numbers are 5 and 16.
 
The Stars bring out the romantic in you during the next three weeks. Arrange a special date for you and your love, such as a big evening out or a weekend away. Don't be shy about declaring your feelings for them, even if you've been together for longer than either of you care to remember. This is a time for letting down your emotional barriers and bringing out your softer side. And if you're currently solo, you might soon be swept off your feet. Ideal colours are burnt orange and auburn. Lucky numbers are 12 and 56.
 
Cultivate your close relationships during the next four weeks and revel in the increased intimacy between you. This doesn't have to be sexual intimacy, although it might be. It could just as easily be an emotional intimacy in which you're able to tell one another your secrets and gain a greater understanding of each other. It will also be a good time to pool your resources with someone and invest your shared money in items that will grow in value over the years. Fortunate colours are lemon and apricot. Lucky numbers are 33 and 75.
 
Your need to be surrounded by familiar faces increases from today and will continue for the next four weeks. It will do you good to be with people you know so well, as it will give you a sense of continuity and the knowledge that you are loved. You could also be inspired to make some improvements to your home, whether that means buying the odd bunch of flowers every now and then or splashing out on a brand new kitchen. Positive colours are taupe and plum. Lucky numbers are 34 and 44.
 
Even if you usually put both feet in it you'll be blessed with plenty of tact during the next four weeks. This is great if you've been waiting for the right moment to say something rather difficult. The coming month will also be a miraculous time for your social life, as you'll be in great demand and will enjoy mixing with lots of different people. Yet you'll probably get the most enjoyment from being with people who live close to home, such as in the same street as you. Receptive colours are bright red and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 64.
 
You'll go to great lengths to keep other people happy during the next few weeks. There's nothing new in this, especially if you're the sort of Libran who needs everyone else to like you, but the question is how you'll do it. By all means be harmonious and easy-going, and prepared to meet people halfway. But don't be so determined to please someone that you let them walk all over you, or you act against your own best interests for the sake of keeping the peace. Ideal colours are lapis lazuli and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 6 and 46.
 
Take a look at yourself in the mirror over the next few days. Do you like what you see or are you bored with your current image? Maybe it's about time you had a new look for a new year If the thought of a makeover really appeals, it's time to hit the shops! Take along someone whose opinion you trust, who can help you to choose clothes that will really flatter you. You won't regret it! Fortunate colours are olive and silver. Lucky numbers are 37 and 16.
 
During the next few weeks you'll really enjoy getting involved in something unusual and thought provoking. This could be a topic or interest that completely captivates you, so you want to devote increasing amounts of time to it. Alternatively, you might become involved with someone who comes from another country or different walk of life and who has a big impact on you. Life certainly won't be dreary over the coming weeks! Favourable colours are silver and dark red. Lucky numbers are 20 and 32.
 
Friends make you feel good today, and one person in particular will have you singing from the rooftops. If you don't have anything sociable planned, try to change all that. Arrange to meet a friend for a drink or a meal, or visit a favourite club so you can chat to some kindred spirits. A special hobby will also make you feel good this Monday. Positive colours are olive and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 19 and 62.
 
Take care because there's tremendous scope for misunderstandings today, especially if you allow your imagination to run riot. For instance, someone may give you sketchy details about something and you'll fill in the gaps yourself, making all sorts of assumptions that may be completely unfounded or inaccurate. So don't believe everything you think this Monday! Favourable colours are brilliant white and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 5 and 67.
 
It's play time! You're in a lighthearted mood and looking for activities that will help you to express this side of your personality. Ideally, you should do something sociable at some point, or at least have a spirited chat with someone. You'll enjoy playing with words, too, so you could have fun with a puzzle, quiz or competition. Favourable colours are navy and amber. Lucky numbers are 16 and 22.
 
In true Gemini style you have a real way with words today, so enjoy it while it lasts. You're the life and soul of the party, because you're full of witticisms and clever remarks. You'll also be pretty ace in a discussion or negotiation, and will be able to think on your feet so no one can get the better of you. Auspicious colours are violet and rose pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 2.
 
Take care of yourself today because you're feeling slightly under the weather. Maybe you're tired after a busy weekend or you're simply feeling a bit jaded and wish you could go back to bed. Steer clear of any food and drink that could make you feel worse, and also try to avoid anyone who'll make you feel guilty for not being on peak form. Whatever the reason, you need to take it easy today. Favourable colours are marmalade and navy. Lucky numbers are 34 and 10.
 
You're in a practical and organized mood this Monday, which is great for sorting out financial matters and anything connected with red tape and bureaucracy. It's also a good opportunity to work out how you're going to afford to put a forthcoming plan into action, and then to devise a budget you can stick to. Favourable colours are silvery orange and lemon. Lucky numbers are 14 and 69.
 
Let's face it, a certain person isn't making a lot of sense today. Maybe they're confused about what they're saying or they seem to be lost in a dream world of their own making. It will be hard work trying to talk to them for long, especially if their conversation rambles or they never complete a sentence. Maybe you should ask them what's wrong as they could be worried about something to the point of distraction. Fortuitous colours are apple blossom and pale green. Lucky numbers are 35 and 59.
 
It's hard to work out what a certain person thinks they're up to, and they obviously don't have a clue either. They're being vague and might also be elusive, so you can't track them down or get hold of them when you want them. If you ask them any direct questions, be prepared for them to prevaricate or fudge the issue. You might as well forget the whole thing for the time being and stop wasting your time! Bold colours are almond and parchment. Lucky numbers are 29 and 41.
 
If you share your finances with someone, whether it's your flatmate, partner or a member of the family, this is a good day to check that everything is running smoothly. Go through recent bank statements or credit card bills to ensure that payments are up to date and no one has made any mistakes. If you're thinking of investing your money in bricks and mortar, you could receive some helpful advice this Monday. Expressive colours are black and jade. Lucky numbers are 13 and 12.
 
You've got the urge to be on the move today, whether you're travelling near or far. The one thing you won't want to do is to sit tight for hours on end, so try to get and about whenever possible. Ideally, you should have a complete change of scene or visit somewhere that sets you thinking. Consider taking someone along to keep you company or arranging to meet up with an old friend when you reach your destination. Inspirational colours are avocado and lemon. Lucky numbers are 18 and 18.
 
You were the epitome of practical organization yesterday, so what's happened since then? You're struggling to get your brain in gear and it keeps losing interest when you're supposed to be paying attention to what you're doing. Maybe you're tired or distracted by something, but you've certainly got that Monday morning feeling. Try to double-check anything important in case you've made a silly mistake, and if possible avoid signing anything official while you're in this flaky mood. Auspicious colours are ginger and lime. Lucky numbers are 18 and 71.
 
It's a very good day for talking to colleagues, whether you're discussing work topics or something quite different. This is also a very favourable day for spending money on your health, such as buying some vitamin pills or supplements, or treating yourself to a complementary health therapy. You might also be interested in buying a book or magazine on a health-related matter. Advantageous colours are sage green and silvery orange. Lucky numbers are 13 and 35.
 
Take care during the next couple of weeks because communications with friends and associates won't always go smoothly. There may even be phases when you get your wires crossed or you fail to make contact at all. However, this will be a super time for reviewing your plans for the future and making sure they're what you want. Beneficial colours are banana yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 25 and 55.
 
During the next few weeks you'll want to channel a lot of energy into your relationships. This means that you'll want them to go well, and you could get rather irritated if you think other people aren't putting the same amount of effort into the partnership as you are. You'll also lose your temper with people who you think are slower or more cautious than you at the moment. Do your best to only get angry when it's absolutely necessary, otherwise you'll be shouting at every opportunity. Propitious colours are charcoal grey and sienna. Lucky numbers are 35 and 51.
 
Your energy levels start to rise dramatically from today and they'll remain fully charged until the beginning of May. Sounds great! It's just what you need if you've been trying to get up the courage or stamina to tackle something new or to chance your arm in some way. You'll also have a lot more energy than usual, which you'll want to burn off in positive ways such as taking lots of exercise. Favourable colours are satin and peach. Lucky numbers are 11 and 55.
 
Communications won't always flow smoothly between now and mid April, so be prepared for possible snags and misunderstandings. Make sure you're very clear and straightforward when talking to others, to avoid them misinterpreting what you say. Yet this will be a fantastic opportunity to rethink some of your current plans and make sure they're what you want. Fortunate colours are coffee and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 27 and 12.
 
Communications don't run as smoothly as you'd like between now and early April, especially when you're trying to keep something a secret or choose your words carefully. You might accidentally blurt out the very thing you were hoping to keep quiet, or you could betray yourself in other ways. Important letters or messages might go missing too. Most frustrating! Fortunate colours are sapphire blue and crushed strawberry. Lucky numbers are 5 and 19.
 
There will be times during the next five weeks when you'll struggle to motivate yourself and get anything done. Maybe you'll lack the confidence to even try, or you'll find it hard to muster the required energy. Nevertheless, there will be occasions when you'll have to force yourself to do things, otherwise you'll run the risk of giving people the wrong impression about you. And you certainly don't want to do that. Ideal colours are sage green and violet. Lucky numbers are 6 and 71.
 
There's already an emphasis on your career and long-term ambitions but it goes up several notches from today. The coming four weeks will be marvellous for being busy with projects that put you in the limelight and win you respect. However, Mercury turns retrograde today and starts moving backwards through the sky from our viewpoint here on earth, which means there could be a few communication glitches between now and 12th April. Be especially wary of signing important contracts during this time. Opportune colours are violet and ebony. Lucky numbers are 13 and 74.
 
If you're a classic Capricorn you have a strong need for emotional and physical security, even if you dare not admit it to anyone. So the coming four weeks will be perfect for you because you'll enjoy being in familiar surroundings with people you know inside out. You might spend more time at home than usual or be reluctant to be with strangers. You'll also get a strong sense of your own identity from being with members of the family. Fortunate colours are brilliant white and lemon. Lucky numbers are 38 and 34.
 
If you're a typical Virgo you often have a tendency to let yourself be overshadowed by other people, and that's a particular hazard during the next six weeks. What's more, you won't take it in your usual philosophical style but will feel quite riled, especially if other people seem to be getting all the attention while you're overlooked. Stand up for yourself when necessary but don't start looking for trouble where none exists. Stabilising colours are tangerine and magenta. Lucky numbers are 40 and 15.
 
Whatever you do today you'll want to do it well, and that applies whether you're at home or at work. If you are at work you'll manage to impress everyone around you with your quiet efficiency and organizational abilities. You'll also get on well with workmates and bosses, which is good news. If you're at home, spare a thought for an older relative who might need you to drop in and make sure they're okay. Active colours are lemon and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 27 and 58.
 
The atmosphere between you and the people in your life will have a tremendous impact on your self esteem during the next four weeks. This means that you'll feel good when you hit if off with everyone and you'll feel wretched when you don't. Nevertheless, this is a good phase for taking part in some sort of teamwork, whether you're doing it on a temporary or permanent basis. It will be great to know that you're all on the same side. Empowering colours are viridian and primrose. Lucky numbers are 2 and 56.
 
The emotional temperature changes today, putting you in a fun loving and affectionate mood during the coming four weeks. This is the perfect excuse to spend more time than usual with some of your favourite people, especially if you don't see as much of them as you'd like. It will also be a great time for romance, so that's good news if this part of your life has been rather barren lately. If you've got your sights set on someone, maybe it's about time you made the first move? Dynamic colours are copper and brass. Lucky numbers are 25 and 43.
 
Make the most of today's focus and organization because they'll help you get ahead with anything you tackle.

Lucky numbers are 7 and 36.
 
Work off recent tensions by doing something that always makes you feel good. Perhaps you could get together with some friends and go out for the day, or maybe you're itching to get busy with a favourite hobby. You should certainly aim to burn off some nervous energy by being energetic and physical, so do something that works up a gentle sweat. Fortunate colours are sky blue and skin tones. Lucky numbers are 37 and 1.
 
The past two days have been rather tense and exhausting, so you need to let off some gentle steam. Do this by getting out and about, or by being active whenever possible. You should certainly opt for a walk rather than a slump in front of the TV, otherwise you'll start to feel slightly restless and fractious. You will also enjoy taking a modest risk or two. Stabilising colours are teal blue and plum. Lucky numbers are 28 and 42.
 
The past few days haven't exactly been a picnic, so grab the chance to let off some steam this Saturday.

You're still in a domesticated mood and today you'll enjoy getting busy around the house or garden. Maybe you feel like doing some DIY or decorating, or you're at the start of a major renovation project and you can't wait to get on with it. You'll be amazed at what you're able to achieve, especially if you have some willing helpers. Don't forget to thank them when they've finished for the day. Creative colours are red velvet and fudge. Lucky numbers are 28 and 37.
 
You're well able to stand up for yourself today but without going over the top and turning someone into an enemy. If you've hired someone to carry out some work for you, you'll be able to give them instructions without sounding bossy. Try to fit in some physical exercise at some point, even if it's relatively modest. You need to keep on the move in order to burn off your excess nervous energy. Fortunate colours are lavender and ginger. Lucky numbers are 11 and 50.
 
If you have to buy someone a present and you haven't got a clue where to start, go shopping today. You'll have the energy to search for the perfect gift, and also the cunning to keep it a secret until it's time to hand it over. If recent events have been getting you down you'll appreciate having some time to yourself, but preferably while you're doing something energetic such as going for a run or working out in the gym. Auspicious colours are black and silvery orange. Lucky numbers are 38 and 64.
 
You'll be kept pretty busy today, but at some point it's important that you get some exercise. If you're too sedentary you'll start to feel irritable and this will inevitably lead to a row. It's a good day for standing your ground with someone, because you'll have no fears about sticking your neck out or putting yourself in a position of authority. But don't overdo it! Stabilising colours are pumpkin and khaki. Lucky numbers are 5 and 24.
 
This is a fantastic day for making things happen because you have bags of energy and impetus. You're also feeling quite brave so might consider doing something that would normally seem too daring. If you've got the day to yourself you'll enjoy doing something active, such as taking a brisk walk in a place you don't know very well. You certainly won't want to sit around twiddling your thumbs if you can help it. Auspicious colours are blackberry and hazel. Lucky numbers are 27 and 46.
 
You need to release some of the tension that's accumulated over the past few days, so do something physical. Go for a swim, jog round the park or knock a football about, but do something that will help to calm you down. You'll enjoy yourself if you're playing games with some of the special children in your life, especially if you arrange some competitive sports for you all. Beneficial colours are crushed strawberry and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 21 and 43.
 
You're happiest if you can keep active today, especially if you're dashing around in your local environment.

It's important to keep busy otherwise you'll start to feel slightly agitated. Beneficial colours are teal blue and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 19 and 6.
 
Work off yesterday's angst by being active and physical. You won't have to go the gym, either, as doing some housework or gardening will help you to get rid of all that nervous energy. It's a good day for getting involved in some DIY or decorating, too, because you'll be able to pace yourself so you won't end up feeling as though you're about to drop from exhaustion. Active colours are strawberry and pearl. Lucky numbers are 1 and 45.
 
Someone hits a raw nerve today, which makes you feel slightly paranoid and unhappy. Do your best not to brood on all this because that will only make you feel worse than ever, and could also make you rather suspicious of someone's motives. One way to avoid all this is to keep switching from one activity to another, so you don't get bogged down or obsessed with anything. You should also be careful about comfort eating to make yourself feel better. Beneficial colours are coffee and caramel. Lucky numbers are 24 and 13.
 
A certain someone wants to twist you round their little finger today, and they'll give it their best shot. Take care because they'll use all sorts of manipulative tactics to get their own way, even if these are ultimately counterproductive. Although you may long to give as good as you get, ask yourself what you'll gain from this in the long term. On the other hand, you may not care about the end result if you're pushed too far. Propitious colours are jade and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 37 and 18.
 
Tread carefully when talking to someone about the things they value because they'll get very hot under the collar if they think you're getting at them in some way. There could also be a big difference of opinion about what someone spends their money on or the people they spend their time with. Could jealousy or possessiveness be at the root of the current problems? And, if so, are they justified? Inspirational colours are burgundy and dark green. Lucky numbers are 31 and 50.
 
Watch out because someone is showing distinctly possessive tendencies today. They want to tell you what to do and they don't want you to stray out of their range of vision, either. It may not bother you at first but it will start to get to you after a while, especially if this person is also suspicious of what you've been doing recently. You may also be gripped by obsessive emotions about something that is currently being kept under wraps. Auspicious colours are aubergine and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 32 and 9.
 
The emotional squalls and turbulence that you faced on Monday return to haunt you today, so watch out. Maybe the other person wants to get their own back in some way, or they're having another attempt at manipulating you into doing what they want. There could also be problems over money, with one of you using it as a lever or bargaining chip. You need to sort this out but do so without stirring up even more trouble for the future. Ideal colours are dark yellow and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 44.
 
Be careful, because someone could try to get you to do things against your will today.

A certain person is being awfully controlling and manipulative today, and they seem to know exactly which of your buttons to press to make the most impact. What do they want from you and why don't you want to give it? Are you holding out through a matter of pride or is this person behaving as though you're their personal property? You must do something about this but without making mountains out of molehills. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 2 and 17.
 
Someone wants to get you to dance to their tune and, quite frankly, they don't care how they do it. This means you could feel manipulated as they try to make you do what they want, rather than what would be best for you. You'll long to tell them to take a running jump but there may be good reasons why you can't, such as the fact that it's a parent or boss who's being such a pain in the neck. Try not to feel resentful about the whole thing. Stabilising colours are lime and beige. Lucky numbers are 23 and 14.
 
Be careful when you're out shopping because if you see something you like you'll be determined to have it even if you can't afford it. You won't rest until it's yours, and if you can't buy it you'll try to persuade someone else to stump up the cash on your behalf. There could also be a compulsive quality to a close relationship, leading to a hot-house atmosphere that's enjoyable at first but could soon turn a bit toxic. Positive colours are dark green and silver. Lucky numbers are 33 and 37.
 
A relationship is undergoing serious and long-term changes, but you may not be very happy about them. Perhaps these alterations to the status quo are making you nervous, or you're wondering where you stand. Well, you need to face up to what's happening, and to find a way of accommodating it. What you can't do is refuse to face facts or to cling to the other person through fear. Ideal colours are sage green and oyster. Lucky numbers are 33 and 51.
 
Relationships have extra intensity today, which may or may not be a comfortable experience!

Alternatively, you could have to deal with someone who will try almost anything to make you do what they want. Ideal colours are mandarin and purple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 41.
 
If you're a typical Taurean you sometimes feel rather possessive of the special people in your life, and it certainly looks as though that's what's happening today. However, the merest hint of possessiveness is likely to cause a rumpus and create a lot of bad feeling, so do your best to curb it. It's never a good idea to try to control someone, and it definitely won't work this Friday. Beneficial colours are burgundy and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 3 and 30.
 
It's another day when you're so busy gritting your teeth with irritation that you're in danger of getting lockjaw. Yesterday's tensions have risen slightly, making you feel that you have only one option left - to lose your temper in as noisy and volcanic a way as possible. Fine, if it will make you feel better, but don't get so agitated that you say and do things that make the situation even worse than it was to start with. Inspiring colours are aubergine and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 32 and 19.
 
If you were irritated by someone's unreliability yesterday, you'll feel even more annoyed today. Or maybe other domestic matters are getting to you.

You need to get things off your chest but don't get so rattled that you make the situation worse than it is already. Calming colours are aquamarine and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
Things that you've tried to push to the back of your mind make themselves felt today, putting you on edge and making you feel fractious. It's no good sweeping these problems under the mental carpet because you'll still know they're there. Instead, you need to do something positive about them, whether that involves finding solutions or accepting that there's nothing more you can do. Propitious colours are parchment and lavender. Lucky numbers are 22 and 4.
 
There's a lot of tension in the air this Thursday and it's strongest when you're with the people you care about the most. What's going on? Do you think you've got the right to tell someone what to do or is the boot on the other foot? You need to clear the air over this, but try to do it without starting a major argument that leads to further resentment and ill feeling. Ideal colours are sky blue and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 1 and 42.
 
There's a lot of emotional tension in the air today and it's bound to end in a scene sooner or later. Maybe you should hurry things along and clear the air quickly, so you can get on with the rest of your day. Do your best to be straightforward and honest, rather than confrontational and aggressive, otherwise you'll put the other person on the defensive and make them feel they're being attacked. And perhaps they are? Passionate colours are umber and peach. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
 
Once again you're having problems with someone in power or authority. You seem to be rubbing each other up the wrong way, especially if you can't actually come out with it and say what's bugging you. However, you need to be sensible about this. Can you really afford to get this person's back up, especially if they could make life difficult for you? No, you can't. Soothing colours are pale blue and sable. Lucky numbers are 33 and 23.
 
Do your best to keep your cool today, otherwise annoying silly things will really get on your nerves.

Clear the air if you're really provoked or someone has stepped out of line, but don't let yourself get worked up over trivial matters. Beneficial colours are apricot and topaz. Lucky numbers are 28 and 57.
 
Pace yourself today otherwise tiny irritations and minor hassles will start to feel like major stumbling blocks. You will also lose your temper with people for no good reason, which isn't fair on them and won't show you in a very favourable light. The fact is that you're trying to cram too many activities into too small a time frame, and you're starting to feel frazzled and panicky. Something has got to give, so what's it going to be? Fortunate colours are pale gold and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 43.
 
It's another day when money is a source of friction, but this time the stakes are raised. Maybe you're annoyed by the way a loved one seems to be wasting their cash on what you consider to be fripperies, or you're wondering how to pay a bill or debt. You won't be able to think straight until you've calmed down, but that may be easier said than done. Opportune colours are honeycomb and ivory. Lucky numbers are 34 and 20.
 
Feelings are running high, thanks to the highly charged emotions of a certain person. They've got themselves into quite a state and are getting their knickers in a twist for no good reason as far as you can see. Should you humour them or tell them to lighten up? Actually, you're unlikely to get through the day without losing your temper at some point, so maybe one or two things are rattling you at the moment too? Stabilising colours are pistachio and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 6 and 62.
 
There have been some fractious moments recently and unfortunately you get a repeat performance of them this Thursday. It's important to find out what's going on so you can do something about it. You should also allow others to let off steam because encouraging them to bottle up their feelings will only prolong the agony for everyone concerned. All the same, don't say or do things in the heat of the moment that you'll regret when you've simmered down again. Vibrant colours are dark green and taupe. Lucky numbers are 26 and 35.
 
There aren't enough hours in the day for you to do everything you want, and it's very frustrating. Try not to take out your ire on people who don't deserve it, especially if it's just one of those things. If you discover that you're working hard while a certain person sits around with their feet up, you really won't be happy and may have good reason to lose your rag. Even so, don't make a federal case out of it. Propitious colours are vanilla and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 26 and 72.
 
Make this a day for keeping in touch with people. You'll enjoy catching up with all the local gossip by talking to a neighbour or by having a long session on the phone with some friends. You'll doubtless hear something very interesting and may even have to pass it on. On the other hand, you may prefer to put pen to paper by writing letters or cards. Fortunate colours are beige and magenta. Lucky numbers are 25 and 32.
 
You'll enjoy keeping on top of tiny details today, whether you're at home or at work. It will help to jot down ideas as they occur to you, so there's no risk of forgetting something vital until it's too late to do anything about it.

Favourable colours are maroon and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 19 and 28.
 
It's a disruptive and chaotic day, so be prepared for things to go slightly haywire. For instance, someone you can normally count on might throw a wobbly, an appointment might be changed at the last minute or a household appliance could go on the blink. The more rigid you like your days to be, the more fraught you'll feel. Maybe you need to lighten up a little and take things more in your stride? Powerful colours are ultramarine and treacle. Lucky numbers are 14 and 55.
 
Keep a close eye on your wallet or purse today, otherwise money will fly out of it in all directions when you buy things on the spur of the moment.

That's fine if you've got the money to spare, but not such good news if you're counting the pennies. Favourable colours are shimmering gold and burnished copper. Lucky numbers are 38 and 45.
 
You're in an outgoing and sociable mood today, so try to not to spend too much time by yourself.

You need a break from your usual Wednesday routine, otherwise you'll begin to feel bored.

So do yourself a favour and avert trouble by letting off steam before you reach screaming point. Energising colours are magenta and orange. Lucky numbers are 38 and 22.
 
Get chatting to people who are on the same wavelength as you this Wednesday.

Lucky numbers are 31 and 27.
 
Today you're happiest if you can be left to get on with things at your own pace and by yourself.

Your powers of concentration are good right now, so make the most of them. Favourable colours are charcoal and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 28 and 22.
 
The more important an event is, the more likely it is to go haywire today, so be warned. Don't trust to luck or simply hope that everything will be okay at the time, because things won't work out that way at all. Try to allow for as many contingencies as possible but, above all, be relaxed and do your best to take everything in your stride. You should also keep your sense of humour at all times. Beneficial colours are hazel and dark green. Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
 
You long for a quiet life, free from trouble and bad feeling. In an ideal world you would spend the day on your own desert island, surrounded by things that make you happy and with plenty of ocean between you and your problems. You may not be able to do that literally but you can do it metaphorically, perhaps by indulging in the delicious escapism of a favourite film, or an engrossing book. Delightful colours are amethyst and apricot. Lucky numbers are 22 and 52.
 
Domestic plans have a habit of going up in smoke today, so try to be patient if things don't work out in the way you were expecting.

Alternatively, a household appliance could go on the blink just when you need it, leaving you high and dry. Harmonic colours are peach and plum. Lucky numbers are 38 and 27.
 
This is a good day for tackling any chores and tasks that you haven't had time for recently.

Lucky numbers are 10 and 34.
 
How much do you value yourself? It's a good question to ask yourself because you can start to boost your self-esteem if you realize that you have a low opinion of yourself.

There's such a strong emotional bond between you and a special today, that you can almost touch it.

Lucky numbers are 13 and 65.
 
You're ready to give someone some much-needed emotional support today. This might entail listening to them while they tell you their tale of woe, or giving them the benefit of your advice.

Lucky numbers are 4 and 27.
 
If you've been conducting a face-saving operation, this is another good day for carrying on the good work.

Lucky numbers are 13 and 75.
 
 
This is a good day for getting to grips with your finances because you're in a very level-headed mood.

If you fell out with someone important yesterday, now's your chance to try to repair the damage. Restful colours are salmon and lazuli. Lucky number is 18.
 
Get cracking on any tasks that need doing around the house, whether they're massive or minor.

Energising colours are royal blue and platinum. Lucky numbers are 2 and 61.
 
If you've been working hard recently it's time you gave yourself a big pat on the back and also took things a bit more easily.

Fortunate colours are jet black and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 23 and 33.
 
If you want to ask someone's advice, this is definitely the day to do it. They're looking favourably on you and want to help you whenever possible.

Lucky numbers are 4 and 16.
 
Happily, the atmosphere starts to improve after yesterday's tensions. Help things along by being as amenable and easy-going as necessary, and also by apologizing if you know you stepped out of line. It will do you far more good in the long run with the person concerned to admit that you're in the wrong than to brazen it out and pretend that none of what happened yesterday had anything to do with you. Receptive colours are lavender and peach. Lucky numbers are 15 and 25.
 
If you're currently considering making some domestic improvements, this is a brilliant day for taking things one step further. Sort out the financial aspects of your proposals, perhaps by asking for some estimates or talking to your bank. If other people will be affected by your plans, make sure that you keep them fully informed. Beneficial colours are chocolate and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 33 and 50.
 
A friend or neighbour is being very supportive, and is prepared to stand by you through a difficult patch. This is a super day for showing your appreciation, whether you do it with a grand gesture or a simple hug. It's also a good opportunity to build on an existing relationship so it becomes stronger and more resilient to the stresses and strains of daily life. Fortunate colours are violet and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 9 and 26.
 
It's very difficult to deal with people in authority today because they're being so bossy, but they won't like it if you fail to show them the respect they think is due to them. You may also be hauled over the coals about something you've failed to do, so be prepared for an ear-bashing. If you're at work, a piece of machinery may go on the blink and need to be fixed. Favourable colours are primrose yellow and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 32 and 50.
 
Take care because a certain person is doing their best to make you do things their way. They won't be very subtle about it, either, as you'll discover if they think you're disobeying them. This could easily turn into a battle of wills, especially if you're determined to give as good as you get. But does the situation really have to get this heated? Make sure you don't start something you can't finish. Energising colours are pineapple and jet black. Lucky numbers are 13 and 60.
 
Watch out because someone is throwing their weight around. Maybe they believe that they're in charge and you've got to do what they tell you, or they're tying to draw you into a battle of wills. Do your best to resist getting involved in big ego clashes because no one will come out of them very well and they'll take up tremendous amounts of energy that would be better spent on more constructive activities. Advantageous colours are khaki and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 14 and 66.
 
Relationships leave a lot to be desired today, because everyone seems so determined to throw their weight around. Someone dear to your heart may think they can give you a piece of their mind or tell you exactly what to do, and you may well have the same idea about them. None of this is the recipe for a happy, uneventful day but you can prevent making things even worse by stopping yourself going overboard and being a complete control freak. Fortunate colours are violet and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
You've got high hopes about something, but the burning question is whether these will come true or whether you'll end up feeling disappointed. If your dreams aren't realized, perhaps it's because you were expecting far too much from the situation. Take care when spending money, especially if you're buying a status symbol, because your urge to splurge could run away with you and leave you looking at a gigantic bill. Fabulous colours are olive and rose. Lucky numbers are 25 and 78.
 
You're feeling really lucky this Monday and everything's going your way. That's especially true when it comes to matters of the heart and you may even be prepared to push your luck slightly with a certain person. The trick is to find a happy balance between being confident and being wildly over-optimistic. So enjoy your fantasies but don't kid yourself into believing that they'll automatically all come true. Fortunate colours are lemon and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 1 and 36.
 
You're in a very generous frame of mind, especially when dealing with people you work with or who are worse off than you. In fact, you might excel yourself this Monday by doing something that's above and beyond the call of duty. This will be very commendable, but make sure you aren't setting a precedent which will turn out to be a real nuisance. Liberating colours are spring green and champagne. Lucky numbers are 37 and 59.
 
To say that you're feeling optimistic right now would be like saying that water can sometimes be wet. You're feeling incredibly positive and have convinced yourself that everything is going wonderfully well. It may be, in which case congratulations are in order, but there's also a chance that you're deliberately ignoring all the snags and only concentrating on the good bits in your life. That's fine, as long as you don't continue to turn a blind eye to potential problems. Auspicious colours are sable and sage. Lucky numbers are 13 and 57.
 
If you've fallen foul of a superior recently, they'll come down on you like a ton of bricks today. It won't be a pleasant experience, but maybe you need to face the music? If you're the one who's in the position of being judge and jury all rolled into one, try not to let your ego get the better of you so you turn the other person into an enemy. Take it gently and don't let your elevated position go to your head. Prosperous colours are banana and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 34 and 51.
 
This is a marvellous day for making some deep-seated changes to your domestic life. You might want to change a room around and put the furniture in different places, or maybe it's time for a cleaning blitz. If there have been difficulties between you and a loved one recently, it's about time you buried the hatchet and sorted everything out. Start now, while you're in the mood. Great colours are burgundy and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 17 and 19.
 
Pay particular attention to your friendships and partnerships today, because the more you put into them the more you'll get out of them. You may simply realize all over again how grateful you are to have certain people in your life, in which case it's a wonderful opportunity to tell them. Or you might meet someone new who will enrich your life in some way. Fortuitous colours are apricot and dark red. Lucky numbers are 4 and 69.
 
There's an uneasy atmosphere between you and a loved one, which could quickly disintegrate into a battle of wills if you're not careful. You've disagreed about something and neither of you is going to be the first to say sorry or to back down. Maybe you feel that a lot is at stake, either emotionally or materially, but you can't carry on like this for much longer. Something will have to give. Auspicious colours are burgundy and apricot. Lucky numbers are 33 and 24.
 
It will do you good to have a break from your usual Sunday routine, particularly if you can enjoy the company of friends at the same time. The more spontaneous and carefree you are, the happier and more relaxed you'll feel. It's also a good day to devote yourself wholeheartedly to a favourite hobby or to get together with a group of likeminded individuals. Inspirational colours are fawn and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 13 and 51.
 
Do something spontaneous today, otherwise you'll soon feel rather fed up and agitated. If you get a last-minute invitation to do something you should jump at it because it will be good fun. It will also do you good to act on the spur of the moment rather than to plan everything in advance, so do things according to how the mood takes you. Who knows, it could become a habit! Beneficial colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 44.
 
A friend has a nice surprise up their sleeve for you today. It won't be earth-shattering but it will certainly brighten up the day and give you something interesting to think about. You could have an unexpected visitor or you might get a phone call or email from someone who lives in another country. If you're taking part in a group activity, it won't go the way you were expecting. Ideal colours are teal blue and taupe. Lucky numbers are 33 and 13.
 
Domestic chores don't have to be boring today if you think of ways to liven them up. Or maybe you want to put as much distance between you and them as possible, so you're thinking about doing something completely different for a change? It's a wonderful day for being spontaneous and throwing caution to the winds because there's little danger of you going overboard but every likelihood of you having a really good time. Fabulous colours are crimson and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 20.
 
Do something on the spur of the moment today. It's exactly what you're in the mood for, and actually you'll feel rather fed up if you can't let off steam every now and then. You don't have to do anything very drastic, but a small departure from your usual Sunday routine will make you feel refreshed and invigorated. And that's exactly how an Arian like you should feel! Adventurous colours are amethyst and hot pink. Lucky numbers are 21 and 60.
 
If your Sundays always seem to follow a similar predictable pattern, it's time to do something about it. Maybe you should alter your schedule a little or rearrange things so you can be a free spirit for once. It will do you good to do things on the spur of the moment whenever possible today, especially if your relationship with that special person in your life is starting to become rather boring or unexciting. Liven things up a little! Fortuitous colours are sky blue and purple grey. Lucky numbers are 35 and 60.
 
Try to get together with someone who is slightly eccentric today and spice up your life a little bit. You'll prefer their company to that of people who like to take a conservative and traditional path through life. If possible, you should do things on the spur of the moment this Sunday as that will make you feel alive and alert. Perhaps you could call on someone you haven't seen recently or visit a museum or art gallery that makes you think. Auspicious colours are golden honey and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 30 and 33.
 
Ideally you should get together with people who are slightly wacky or unusual today. You certainly aren't very keen on being with someone who's predictable, boring or wedded to tradition. If you're stuck with anyone who comes under these categories you'll soon find ways to make them sit up and take notice, which could involve shocking them out of their complacency. Ideal colours are dark brown and beige. Lucky numbers are 5 and 44.
 
Don't judge a book by its cover or someone by their outward appearance because you'll have a surprise in store. You might meet someone who looks very buttoned up and staid, but who turns out to be a real laugh, or it could happen the other way round. If you always do the same things each Sunday, consider varying your routine slightly simply to liven up the day. Beneficial colours are platinum and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 52.
 
If Sundays are always the same in your house, why not liven them up a little? You don't have to do anything radical, so don't imagine that it's a case of all or nothing, but you'll certainly enjoy departing from your usual routine in some way. For instance, if you always eat at home, why not go out for a change, or invite someone over to your place purely for the pleasure of their company. Auspicious colours are bronze and caramel. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
 
You need to do something that little bit different today, or you'll feel edgy and fidgety. Get together with someone who's offbeat and unusual in some way because you certainly aren't keen on spending too much time with people who are the epitome of tradition and conservatism. This is also the day for having a conversation that challenges your usual point of view and makes you look at life from a different angle. Propitious colours are yellow and sable. Lucky numbers are 1 and 3.
 
You need plenty of variety in your day, if you're going to make the most of it, so try not to get stuck doing only one thing for hours on end. This may not be possible, of course, but even snatching five minutes' break every now and then will help to keep your interest alive and your brain alert. You could also have a surprising conversation at some point that will really set you thinking. Vibrant colours are nutmeg and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 32 and 60.
 
Get in touch with someone who could use a hand. Maybe they aren't very well but are too proud to ask for help, so they'll be grateful to you for volunteering. You might also ring someone if you can't see them in person, just to make sure they're okay. While you're in this charitable mood, you might want to slip some coins into someone's collecting tin or even to make a bigger donation. Stabilising colours are tangerine and walnut brown. Lucky numbers are 18 and 23.
 
Frustrations abound today and you'll struggle to keep your temper under control. Maybe you shouldn't and you should actually let rip, especially if you've been seething about something for days now? If you do blow your top, make sure your ire is directed at the right person and you aren't simply getting annoyed with everyone who has the misfortune to come into contact with you. Harmonious colours are jade and aqua. Lucky numbers are 2 and 66.
 
Harsh words are spoken today, because someone is being very critical and nit-picking. You may be ticked off by an older member of the family who feels justified in giving you a piece of their mind because you don't do things in the same way that they did when they were your age. Alternatively, you may have to cope with a partner who is behaving more like a parent and giving you a right ear-bashing. However, whoever is criticizing you may have a point, so listen to what they're saying. Propitious colours are emerald green and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 18 and 6.
 
A friend could lead you into extravagant ways today. It will all seem like a very good idea at the time, of course, and you won't need to be asked twice. But later on, when you count up how much money you spent, you could be in for a nasty shock. If you meet someone new now you'll really hit it off with them and there will be plenty of laughs between you. Beneficial colours are mustard yellow and dark green. Lucky numbers are 15 and 32.
 
The busier you are today the shorter your temper will be, so watch out if you've got one eye permanently on the clock. If you're desperately trying to meet a deadline you must make sure you channel your nervous energy into whatever you're doing, rather than fritter it away by getting into a panic or having a slanging match with anyone foolish enough to get in your way. Favourable colours are copper and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 2 and 53.
 
There's some telepathic communication between you and a certain someone today. Perhaps you know what they're going to say before they even open their mouth, or you start to think about them just before they ring you up. This ability will come in useful if you're discussing a sensitive topic and you need to choose your words carefully. Trust your instincts to tell you what to say and what to keep to yourself. Opportunistic colours are champagne and magenta. Lucky numbers are 3 and 19.
 
Yikes! Someone is on the warpath today and whatever you do or say seems to make them go off bang. Even offering a cup of tea will turn into a highly-charged discussion, so be careful about the tone of voice you use. Maybe you're winding them up without realizing it or secretly looking for an argument but hoping to blame it on the other person? Be honest with yourself about your motives. Beneficial colours are aubergine and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 13 and 35.
 
Do something that makes you think. You need some mental stimulation, so consider visiting a museum or art gallery, buying a thought-provoking book or watching an interesting television programme.

Adventurous colours are apricot and lincoln green. Lucky numbers are 7 and 27.
 
Once again, money is the focus of your day. This time, you're feeling really tempted to splash out lots of cash but maybe your conscience is pricking you or your other half is telling you not to be so reckless. At some point, have a think about the things you really value in life, whether they're material, emotional, spiritual or mental. Uplifting colours are raspberry and champagne. Lucky numbers are 26 and 9.
 
Are you worried about something? You certainly aren't feeling as chirpy and upbeat as usual, so it's a good idea to get to the bottom of what's wrong. The welfare of a family member could be a source of anxiety now, or you might be consumed with guilt because you haven't seen various relatives recently and you know they're upset about it. Do what you can to solve the problem. Fortunate colours are persimmon and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 36 and 73.
 
You're in a very understanding mood today, making you appreciate other people's problems and be prepared to overlook their funny little foibles. This is ideal if you're trying to rebuild a relationship after some recent ructions, because you'll be prepared to put the past behind you. But be careful if you're expected to make decisions today because your mind will keep wandering and you'll struggle to focus on what's important. Healing colours are toffee and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 27 and 57.
 
The more you love someone, the more likely they are to get right up your nose this Saturday. Be especially careful when handling money matters because these will be like a red rag to a bull, particularly if you disagree over what to spend your money on. Try not to boss anyone about, and don't let them do the same to you. You should also avoid making someone feel jealous by behaving provocatively or insensitively. Harmonious colours are beige and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 23 and 36.
 
Once you get someone chatting you won't be able to shut them up, so be warned. They'll start talking about very personal and intimate topics, making it even more difficult for you to extricate yourself. So maybe you should simply let this person talk, and reciprocate by giving them a few confidences of your own. It could help to bring the two of you closer together. Ideal colours are copper and cream. Lucky numbers are 11 and 28.
 
If you're considering making a big purchase but you haven't committed yourself to it yet, this is a good day for discussing the whole thing with someone who will help you to make up your mind. However, make sure that you don't sound as though you're bragging, especially if you've got more money than the other person. There are more important things in life than what we can and can't afford to buy. Fortunate colours are onyx and primrose. Lucky numbers are 36 and 48.
 
You're feeling industrious and practical but you have to cope with lots of interruptions and distractions before you can get on with your work. You might distract yourself, as your mind leaps from one topic to the next, or you could have to cope with someone who's in such a talkative state that they don't know when to shut up. Dreamy colours are terracotta and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 18 and 68.
 
Any sort of social occasion is right up your street, although you'll be happiest if you can be with people who always amuse you and keep you interested in what they have to say. It's a lovely day for organizing a child's treat, such as a trip to the cinema, or for doing something that makes you feel like a six-year-old again. Enjoy yourself! Auspicious colours are salmon and champagne. Lucky numbers are 33 and 71.
 
Someone in your life has a lot to say for themselves today. The burning question, of course, is whether you've got time to listen to them. If you have then that's fine, but if you haven't you'll soon start to feel rather irritated as this person yaks on and on endlessly. Do they have something important to say or are they feeling lonely and in need of a receptive audience? Don't be too quick to judge them. Beneficial colours are olive and mango. Lucky numbers are 2 and 64.
 
Someone is so chatty that you feel you could wind them up and just let them talk and talk, like a clockwork toy. If you're really busy you'll have to find excuses why you can only talk to them for a short while, otherwise the precious minutes will tick away while they yak on about anything and everything. On the other hand, you might be the chatterbox, in which case you should try not to buttonhole people if they don't have time to listen to you. Advantageous colours are almond and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 8 and 49.
 
You've have a lot to say for yourself! In fact, it's one of those days when you'll find it difficult to keep quiet for long because you're in such a chatty and communicative mood. This will be good fun all the while you've got an appreciative audience, but try to involve them in the conversation rather than turn it into a monologue with you in the starring role. Beneficial colours are dark gold and lavender. Lucky numbers are 26 and 29.
 
It's a strange day Taurus, because you're in a chatty mood but you're very choosy about who you talk to. You certainly don't want to talk to anyone who won't appreciate what you've got to say, because you'll be most comfortable when talking about topics that are dear to your heart or which are very private. But once you get started there'll be no stopping you. Beneficial colours are persimmon and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 22 and 31.
 
If you ring a friend, be warned that they may never stop talking, which could work out expensive!

It's also great for going to one of the clubs, groups or organizations that you belong to. Fortunate colours are dark gold and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 34 and 23.
 
A certain person has a lot to say for themselves today, especially if they're older than you or in a position of authority. It may be difficult to get them to stop talking, as one topic of conversation leads on to another. You'll have to be tactful if you want to slip away before they've had their say. If you're the one who's in charge, try not to corner anyone who should really be getting on with their work. Auspicious colours are navy and ivory. Lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
 
You're feeling very voluble today, and once you get started you'll be reluctant to stop chatting. And what will you be talking about? Probably about the past, or about your family and home.

Ambitious colours are light toffee and claret ash. Lucky numbers are 7 and 12.
 
Someone's tongue runs away with them today, turning a quick chat into a long, long conversation. You won't mind unless you've got something urgent to do and you can't extricate yourself from this person's ceaseless babblings. Or maybe you're the one who's got so much to say that you can't stop talking? This is particularly likely if you're talking about your latest craze or interest. Try to remember that not everyone is as gripped by it as you are. Fortunate colours are dark brown and brass. Lucky numbers are 27 and 27.
 
This is the perfect day for building bridges between you and a certain person in your life. Things haven't run as smoothly between you as you would like lately, so it's time to say sorry and do something constructive about the situation.

Auspicious colours are lemon and cherry. Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
 
Romance is in the air at the moment and it's even more likely from today. You could be about to fall in love with someone new, or an existing relationship might go through a very lovey-dovey phase.

Favourable colours are spearmint and red. Lucky numbers are 3 and 15.

If possible, you should scrap your usual schedule and do something enjoyable and spontaneous instead. No chance of that? Then think of less drastic but equally enjoyable ways to liven up your day, even if you can only spare five minutes or so for them at any one time. If you don't do this, you'll get really restless. Harmonious colours are ruby red and deep gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 53.
 
Your powers of diplomacy are working really well today, which is just what you need if you've got to choose your words carefully when talking to someone. Not only can you say the right things but you're also able to put people at their ease and make them feel comfortable with you. This is no mean feat so don't squander it. Use it! Beneficial colours are hazelnut and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 53.
 
You have a real need to be with people that you know inside out. You'll feel rather uncomfortable and on edge if you have to spend too much time with strangers or people who seem peculiar in some way. Your idea of heaven right now is to curl up at home with some delicious food and some enjoyable company. Rejoin the rest of the world when you're ready. Restful colours are green grape and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 16 and 50.
 
Someone needs your understanding and forgiveness. There may be very good reasons why you're justified in being angry with them, but how long are you going to hold on to your anger? So do your best to let bygones be bygones and to chalk the whole thing up to experience. After all, you hope people would do the same for you, don't you? Positive colours are silvery blue and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 61.
 
Be careful when handling your finances today because there's plenty of scope for getting things wrong or being fleeced. If you go shopping you might not notice that the cashier has rung up the wrong amount on their till, or you could get confused about how much something costs and then feel too embarrassed to say you don't want it after all. Be especially wary of any offers or deals that seem too good to be true because that's probably exactly what they are. There will be a catch, even if you can't spot it. Advantageous colours are marmalade and bronze. Lucky numbers are 10 and 28.
 
You're in an analytical frame of mind and will enjoy having a highly detailed conversation with someone. You want to go into all the ins and outs of a situation so you can find out exactly what's going on. At some point you may also start wondering about the precise nature of your relationship with a certain person, and why you were brought together. Interesting stuff! Uplifting colours are dusky rose and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 32 and 4.
 
You need to retreat from harsh reality and take refuge in fantasy, romance and other delightful things today. This means you will struggle to cope with any unpleasant events that might happen to you, and will try to hide your head in the sand rather than do something constructive about them. Adopt that attitude today, if necessary, but make sure you face facts in the next day or two. Fortunate colours are dark yellow and black. Lucky numbers are 20 and 9.
 
This is a super day for fixing any small problems or difficulties. You might finally clear out the fridge after days of wondering whether its contents could be used for germ warfare, or sew on that button that fell off weeks ago. You don't have to do anything very major to feel pleased with yourself now. Why not do some troubleshooting too, by having a heart-to-heart conversation with someone special. Soothing colours are oyster and cherry. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
You usually have your head screwed on the right way but it's a different story today. You're feeling confused, you're saying one thing and doing another, and basically you don't know whether you're coming or going. This means it certainly isn't the right day for taking part in an important discussion or negotiation, nor for agreeing to anything that's legal and binding. Wait until your brain is back in gear before committing yourself in any way. Auspicious colours are mandarin and apple green. Lucky numbers are 27 and 30.
 
You're very sensitive to the moods of the people around you today, so be careful about the company you keep. If you're with someone who's very angry or irritable, you'll quickly absorb their mood. You might even find that they calm down and you get wound up, which won't be much fun. Ideally, you should spend time with people who are on your wavelength and who make you feel good about yourself. Fortunate colours are azure and taupe. Lucky numbers are 1 and 55.
 
You're in a world of your own today, which is all very nice if you aren't expected to do anything important or detailed. You'll be able to drift through the day in your own little bubble and only come back down to earth when you're ready to face the world again. But it will be a different story if you're supposed to be concentrating on something because your mind will keep wandering off the subject. You'll simply have to do your best. Beneficial colours are scarlet and mango. Lucky numbers are 23 and 40.
 
You're fascinated by the inner workings of relationships this Tuesday and you want to find out more about them. It's a great opportunity to examine your own relationships and to think about the way they work, although you'll be more interested in the spiritual aspects than in anything very practical. You might also have a strange experience that you can't explain away easily. Favourable colours are cream and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 21 and 68.
 
A friend has some good ideas and they're very anxious to get you on board. Maybe they're suggesting a social outing and they want you to come along, or they're trying to persuade you to go on holiday with them. If you've got some spare time you could be interested in joining a course or group that will give you a new perspective on life. Opportune colours are avocado and black. Lucky numbers are 2 and 49.
 
Give yourself a break! Yesterday was difficult and now you need to take things easy for a while. Ideally, you should spend plenty of time doing nothing, or arrange to have a relaxing massage. It will be difficult to get yourself moving if you've got a heavy schedule because you can't raise the necessary energy. You should also be wary about eating foods that don't always agree with you because they might have an adverse effect today. Fortunate colours are sienna and spring green. Lucky numbers are 25 and 46.
 
Your idea of heaven is to lie back and do as little as possible today. Whether you can pull it off is another matter. If you can swing it, you'll enjoy spending time at home, lazing around and doing things as the fancy takes you. If you can summon up the energy you might go swimming or take a walk by a stretch of water, but that will be about as much exercise as you can take for one day. Advantageous colours are russet and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 32 and 3.
 
Does it feel as though you're bashing your head against a brick wall? It's one of those days in which you face all sorts of obstacles and stumbling blocks, and there doesn't seem to be much you can do about them. You may even suspect that someone is deliberately trying to throw a spanner in the works or be obstructive. Could this be true or are you getting slightly paranoid? Favourable colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 62.
 
Everything seems to take twice as long as usual today, which is really frustrating and irritating. Maybe you have to cope with a lot of slowcoaches who are holding things up, or there's a string of delays and glitches that test your patience. Yes, it's annoying but do your best not to get worked up about things if you can't do anything to change them. You'll simply have to cope with what life throws at you. Auspicious colours are dark grey and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 15 and 64.
 
Ugh. Life feels like hard work. For a start, you might be rather tired and weary, making everything seem like more of an effort than usual. And you will also have to cope with problems connected with your finances. If you get some unpleasant news that gives you a sinking feeling, there's nothing you can do about it for the time being. Be patient, even if that seems almost out of the question. Beneficial colours are nutmeg and red. Lucky numbers are 8 and 43.
 
It's no good, it's just one of those days when it feels as though everything is conspiring against you. A machine might go on the blink at the crucial moment, or there could be a major delay over something that you consider to be very important. Even though losing your temper might be a tempting option at the time, you won't achieve much and you could even cause more trouble for yourself. Deep breaths instead? Favourable colours are plum and russet. Lucky numbers are 15 and 70.
 
Try as you might to make progress in a financial or emotional matter, you'll feel as though you're hitting your head against a brick wall. Maybe someone involved in your scheme is refusing to play ball, or they aren't around when you try to make contact. Alternatively, you may have to face a big disappointment and accept defeat about something. It isn't an easy day. Inspirational colours are aqua and lime. Lucky numbers are 15 and 60.
 
Oh dear! A relationship gets into very murky waters today, so take care. One of you seems determined to spike the other's guns, perhaps by being very obstructive or refusing to co-operate over something. If you're the one who's facing all these obstructions, you might think the other person is being bloody-minded but perhaps they have very good reasons for standing in your way, and it's about time that you looked at what these might be. Fortunate colours are cinnamon and dark grape. Lucky numbers are 32 and 36.
 
Prepare yourself for what could be a frustrating day when things don't go the way you want. It may be very difficult to motivate yourself into achieving what you intended to do, perhaps because you simply don't have the energy or because forces are apparently conspiring against you. Do what you can and don't expect yourself to behave like Superman or Superwoman. Uplifting colours are pineapple and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 19.
 
It's one of those frustrating days when you can't make the progress you've been hoping for. Maybe someone deters you from doing what you want, or circumstances simply conspire against you. You can waste a lot of energy trying to work miracles or you can simply accept defeat for the time being and try again another day. Beneficial colours are amber and coffee. Lucky numbers are 30 and 76.
 
Try as you might, you can't make much progress today. Maybe someone is putting up lots of obstacles or you're facing a difficult situation and can't find a way round it. Whatever is wrong, it's incredibly frustrating and is testing your patience to the limit. However, there is no magic bullet and it looks as though you must like or lump it at the moment. Maybe you need to rethink your strategy in some way? Auspicious colours are shimmering purple and apricot. Lucky numbers are 27 and 68.
 
You're facing delays and setbacks to your plans for the future, and you aren't happy about it at all. But what can you do? It's one of those days when you have to take things on the chin if you can't do anything about them. You may even discover, further down the line, that today's blockages turned out to be blessings in disguise and prevented you doing something you would have regretted. So try to be philosophical about your current situation. Dynamic colours are cobalt blue and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 14 and 72.
 
You need loads of patience today because you're going to need it. Someone is standing in the way of your plans and being obstructive, and you're completely stymied. Not that you will be for long, once you've worked out a strategy. Do something else that's constructive and therapeutic, otherwise you'll feel really frustrated and annoyed. Auspicious colours are avocado and black satin. Lucky numbers are 31 and 65.
 
Be patient, otherwise you'll end up climbing the walls today. It's a case of taking one step forwards and two steps back, because you're facing all sorts of difficulties and hurdles. You may know precisely what's preventing you from achieving your aims or it may be impossible to put your finger on the exact cause, but either way you'll feel very frustrated and possibly even powerless. Give it up for the time being and do something therapeutic instead. Comforting colours are hazelnut and azure blue. Lucky numbers are 35 and 40.
 
You're in a self-contained mood and will be happy to spend big chunks of the day by yourself. In fact, you might even make some excuses to certain people so you can have more time to yourself. If you're at work, you'll want to show yourself in a good light and will expect to be patted on the back when necessary. You won't like it if you're taken for granted. Ideal colours are silver and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 16.
 
Friends are terrific company this Sunday, as they'll take you out of yourself and have you laughing. If you don't have any plans, how about taking off on a short journey of adventure, maybe visiting somewhere for the first time. You'll also enjoy a trip to a place that makes you think, such as a museum or art gallery. Favourable colours are ruby red and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 5 and 48.
 
You're in a very domesticated mood, which is great if you're spending time with the rest of the family. Maybe you want to make a special fuss of a certain someone, in which case you'll do your best. Or perhaps you fancy going out for the day with the rest of the tribe. Togetherness is what counts right now, so enjoy being with your nearest and dearest no matter what you decide to do. Positive colours are cream satin and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 24 and 77.
 
Keep on the move today. It's the best way to stay happy and interested in what's going on around you. You won't have to travel far afield, either, because even short trips will be enjoyable. Why not visit a neighbour, drop in on a close relative or go for a walk in your local park? If you can find the time, you should give you-know-who a ring or send a chatty email. Beneficial colours are burgundy and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 5 and 49.
 
It's a great day for simply getting on with whatever jobs are awaiting your attention. That could mean anything from being busy at work to clearing out the fridge, but it will be satisfying to know that you've achieved something. This is also a good opportunity to go through a bank or credit card statement and make sure it doesn't contain any rogue entries. Beneficial colours are lemon and cherry. Lucky numbers are 26 and 42.
 
You have the happy knack of hitting it off with virtually everyone you come across today, so make the most of it while it lasts. Perhaps you should make a point of talking to someone who is often rather prickly, so they're left with a good impression of you and you're able to put your relationship on a better footing. It's also a good day for taking part in negotiations because you'll be keen to ensure everyone is happy with the outcome. Auspicious colours are kiwifruit and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 4 and 67.
 
You're interested in having some serious conversations today, preferably with people who know what they're talking about. Although you'll chat about more superficial topics if necessary, you're really itching to discuss things in a great deal of depth. This means you could end up having quite a confessional conversation with someone, so make sure you trust their powers of discretion. Auspicious colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
 
You're feeling great! It's a fabulous day for being with people who always cheer you up and make you laugh, because you'll have even more fun with them than usual. A conversation will be informative, especially if you want to pick someone's brains in order to get the benefit of their experience. It's also a good day for arranging a weekend break or a visit to a far-off friend. Energising colours are terracotta and coffee. Lucky numbers are 16 and 44.
 
Do something sociable today. Get together with friends, visit the family or spend the day with one of your favourite people. You're in a very gregarious mood and you'll go out of your way to put others at their ease and find something to talk to them about. You'll also enjoy going out for the day and perhaps visiting an art gallery, museum or cinema. Uplifting colours are dark pink and silver. Lucky numbers are 29 and 66.
 
Take note of all the things that need doing around the house or garden and then get started on them. It's the sort of day when you really enjoy some gentle domestic activity without feeling that you've got to go overboard. You might fancy doing some tidying up, some gardening or some cooking for the freezer. Whatever you choose, it will make you feel very pleased with yourself. Beneficial colours are ivory and opal. Lucky numbers are 29 and 74.
 
What would you do without your friends? That's the question you ask yourself today because you're having such a good time with some of your chums. Let them know that you appreciate being with them and that you enjoy their company. Another way to have fun today is to immerse yourself in a favourite hobby, whether you share it with someone else or it's a solitary treat. Fortunate colours are cinnamon and sage green. Lucky numbers are 37 and 65.
 
No matter what else you're supposed to be doing, you should spend time on things that have a lot of meaning for you. It's important to concentrate on your priorities in life today, especially if you can do so in peace and quiet. If you're of a mystical frame of mind you'll enjoy doing some meditation or creative visualization. Insightful colours are mahogany and parchment. Lucky numbers are 9 and 19.
 
Give your brain some exercise during the coming four weeks, especially if that means getting involved in intellectual or educational topics. If you've always wanted to learn more about a particular subject this is a great opportunity to start, whether you do it under your own steam or in a classroom. How about signing up for a distance-learning course or an evening class? It could broaden your social life as well as your brain. Expansive colours are sky blue and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
 
During the next four weeks you'll need to do some serious thinking about your finances, Pisces. Maybe you need to think about how to drum up some more money to boost your income, or you're looking for ways to make your existing money go further. Don't be afraid to talk to an expert if necessary, or to conduct your own research by reading leaflets or looking at websites. Ideal colours are cream and russet. Lucky numbers are 22 and 73.
 
Think about how to enjoy yourself during the next four weeks. If fun has had to take a low position in your list of priorities lately, it's about time you reversed that trend and started to think how you can do so. It will help to spend time with some of your favourite people, and also to get involved in playful activities. Children will help to take you out of yourself, too. Empowering colours are dark grape and yellow rose. Lucky numbers are 10 and 28.
 
Your thoughts centre around yourself from today, putting you in a very self-absorbed state of mind over the next few weeks. This is entirely as it should be right now, because you've got a lot to think about, but you must try to avoid becoming so wrapped up in your own affairs that you've got no time or interest for anyone else. Such an attitude won't win you any friends. Fortunate colours are navy and ochre. Lucky numbers are 40 and 8.
 
The next few weeks are the ideal time to think seriously about the finances you share with others, such as your partner or family. Is everything running smoothly or do you need to alter the existing arrangements in some way? This is a great time to carry out some research on money matters, such as looking into the best mortgage offers or finding a better place to put your savings. Ideal colours are lavender and fawn. Lucky numbers are 23 and 9.
 
You're in a confidential frame of mind during the rest of the month, making you a magnet for other people's secrets. So don't be surprised if someone wants to cry on your shoulder and then swears you to secrecy about what they said. If you want to confide in a friend, choose one that you can trust not to repeat everything to the very next person they see. Auspicious colours are nutmeg and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 13 and 4.
 
Start thinking about your career and long-term plans from today. How can you achieve some of your ambitions, or do you need to scrap them and start again with something more exciting? Try to get things under way by the 20th. If you've been toying with the idea of changing jobs and doing something totally different, this is a great opportunity to look into retraining schemes. Favourable colours are rose and purple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 44.
 
From today, your thoughts turn to family matters and the past, and they will stay on these themes for the next four weeks. It's a great opportunity to get in touch with members of the family you haven't seen in a while, and you could even be inspired to arrange a big get-together. If you're interested in history you might want to look into your family tree, or perhaps it's time you sorted out that pile of old photos and got them into some sort of order. Stable colours are dark purple and taupe. Lucky numbers are 40 and 69.
 
Your brain is going to be kept very busy during the next four weeks, so be prepared to do a lot of thinking. You'll enjoy tackling fiddly problems, whether they're connected with your job or your spare time, and you might also take your work home with you sometimes. The trick is not to get so immersed in all this that you end up feeling mentally exhausted and unable to think straight. Fortunate colours are oyster and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 26 and 38.
 
Have a think about your hopes and dreams for the future during the rest of the month. Is there something you've always wanted to do but have always thought was out of your reach? Well, maybe you could start working towards it, because you certainly won't achieve it if you don't do anything about it. It might help if you write down a list of what you want to do. Advantageous colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 73.
 
Life will be very busy during the next few weeks, so prepare for a hectic time. You'll be heavily involved in neighbourhood issues and local activities, and may also spend more time than usual with close members of the family. This will also be an excellent chance to boost your communications, whether that means updating your phone, doing lots of visiting or taking the trouble to talk to a certain person. Ambitious colours are gold and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 7 and 29.
 
If you're a typical Libran, you understand the need to communicate properly with the people around you, because if you can't talk things through, your relationship doesn't stand much chance of success. Go out of your way to talk to the people in your life during the next four weeks, but make sure you do your fair share of listening too. Propitious colours are dark brown and silver. Lucky numbers are 29 and 55.
 
Your social life is full of surprises today, so be prepared for all eventualities. A pre-arranged appointment might be changed at the last minute, or someone may not turn up when you expect them. If you meet someone for the first time, they'll have quite an impact on you. You might even be completely dazzled by them, especially if they aren't your usual type. What on earth is going on? Beneficial colours are russet and cream. Lucky numbers are 31 and 24.
 
Someone puts a spring in your step and a sparkle in your eyes today. It's exhilarating and good fun, even if it doesn't mean anything. For instance, you might have a delightful flirtation with a friend, or you could be chatted up by a complete stranger. But there's also a chance that you might suddenly be smitten by the charms of someone you've known for a while. What next? Stable colours are strawberry and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 31 and 63.
 
A certain person is absolutely scintillating and you can't get enough of them. In fact, the sexual chemistry between the two of you has got you in quite a state. That's fine if you're already in a relationship with this person or you're in a position to pursue them, but life will get rather complicated if you're already spoken for because you'll battle with temptation. How will the story end? Dynamic colours are ultramarine and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 20 and 27.
 
Are you feeling bored, fed up or fidgety? Then keep well away from the shops unless you've either left your money at home or you're rolling in the stuff. That's because you'll enjoy splashing out on impulse buys in an attempt to brighten up your day or cheer yourself up, and it could work out very expensive by the time you've finished. You may not even like half the things you buy, so keep the receipts if you do flash the cash around. Beneficial colours are violet and blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 42.
 
Life is predictable and boring today, making you long to do something that will shake you out of your current rut. So what do you have in mind? You could become wildly attracted to someone who isn't your usual type at all or who is so controversial that he or she will outrage everyone who knows you. However, try not to go solely for shock value as you could regret it later on when you wonder what on earth possessed you to get involved with this person in the first place. Maybe you could tone it down a little? Beneficial colours are maroon and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 10 and 58.
 
You yearn to be with people who are interesting and unusual today, so try to give a wide berth to anyone who's so predictable that you could set your watch by them. There's also a chance that you could be tempted by the many charms of someone who has an electrifying effect on you, even if you're already spoken for. If this happens, the big question is what you're going to do about it. The sensible option is not to do anything rash, but you aren't feeling sensible at the moment. Dynamic colours are sunshine yellow and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
 
Someone wants to create a bit of a stir today, especially if you work with them and they think things are starting to get boring. They'll go out of their way to keep you amused but their antics might get you into trouble as well, so watch out. You might also be powerfully attracted to someone you meet now, whether through work or a medical matter. The big question is what you want to do about it. Stabilising colours are shimmering green and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 38 and 42.
 
Get ready for a few surprises in a close relationship. Someone could sweep you off your feet and suggest doing something totally different from your usual Friday routine, or they could say something that leaves you reeling with shock. There's also a chance that you could be smitten by someone you meet today, and feel dazzled by their sexual magnetism and the chemistry between you. Should you leave it at that or take it any further? Favourable colours are orange and ivory. Lucky numbers are 34 and 60.
 
You enjoy sticking to a familiar routine but today you long to break free from your usual schedule and do something completely different. If you're self-employed maybe you could give yourself the day off work and go on a mini adventure? If that's not possible, arrange to do something exciting in your spare time. There could also be some sensational news from a special person who lives abroad. Expansive colours are pale gold and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 34 and 62.
 
Your emotions could lead you a merry dance this Friday, so be prepared for anything to happen! You could be smitten by someone who isn't your usual cup of tea in the slightest but who hits you right between the eyes now. The burning question is whether you'll want to take it any further or whether this bewildering attraction will be over as quickly as it started. Opportune colours are ivory and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 29 and 6.
 
The focus is firmly on your family life at the moment and it's the same story today. But don't expect things to be boring or predictable. Instead, get ready for some surprises and unexpected incidents, courtesy of a certain person who is dear to your heart. They may act out of character or alter a plan at the eleventh hour, so you'll have to adapt to the changed circumstances. Advantageous colours are lapis lazuli and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 33 and 50.
 
You may be hit straight between the eyes by the charms of someone who isn't your usual cup of tea today. They might also be in a position of power or influence, which gives them a very sexy aura. What are you going to do about this? If you start a relationship it could be over almost as soon as it began, but it will be quite something while it lasts. Ideal colours are ginger and avocado. Lucky numbers are 33 and 4.
 
Your relationships were going along nicely yesterday but it's a different story today, thanks to the scratchy mood of a certain someone. Maybe they're feeling sorry for themselves or they're in a filthy temper, but they'll make sure that you know all about it. Try not to make matters worse by unconsciously goading them or saying the one thing that's guaranteed to make them go off pop. Nevertheless, it's important to clear the air otherwise things will drag on in this irritable way. Favourable colours are strawberry and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 28 and 52.
 
It's important to know when to stop today, otherwise you could easily go overboard, Scorpio. This is especially important if you're busy doing something physical because you could take on more than you can manage and end up wondering how you're going to cope. For instance, if you decide to go for a long walk you might get footsore when you're still miles from home. Favourable colours are butterscotch and dark green. Lucky numbers are 24 and 18.
 
Once you get the bit between your teeth there'll be no stopping you today. That's perfect if you want to get up a good head of steam over a project that calls for courage, confidence and energy, but it may not be such good news if you often have a tendency to go overboard. Nevertheless, if you spot a lucky break you should head straight for it and make the very best of it. Beneficial colours are sable and cream. Lucky numbers are 35 and 29.
 
Have you got something to prove? It certainly seems that way, judging by your behaviour. Maybe you're taking on more work than you can manage just to look good to your colleagues, or you're so anxious to set a good example that you're running yourself into the ground. Take a break and try to calm down a little, otherwise you'll really overdo it. Advantageous colours are violet and cream. Lucky numbers are 4 and 39.
 
Easy does it! You're feeling very ambitious and you want to make a success of whatever you do today, but that means you may not know when to stop. As a result, you could easily take on more work than you can comfortably manage and then feel duty-bound to struggle on with it single-handed before having to admit defeat. So do yourself a favour and push yourself a little harder than normal but without taking things to extremes. Favourable colours are fuchsia and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 24 and 9.
 
There's friction between you and a certain person today. One of you seems to think that you've got the right to tell the other one what to do, whether or not this is true. As a result, there will be a lot of hot air and resentment flying around. Do your best to be aware of your behaviour so you've got some chance of controlling it, rather than letting rip and then feeling bad about it afterwards. Harmonious colours are pale pink and lilac. Lucky numbers are 6 and 13.
 
You have an abundance of energy today, making you feel like a real live wire, so go for it. You'll be especially energetic if you're busy with domestic matters and you'll probably get so involved that you won't know where to draw the line. If you feel inspired to start a major project, make sure you know what you're doing and can finish it in the time you've got available. Otherwise, you might be starting something that will become a major headache. Dynamic colours are sparkling gold and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 18.
 
There is so much energy coursing through your body today that you don't know what to do first. It's important that you stay as active as possible, but equally important that you know where to draw the line before you exhaust yourself. Be careful if you're going to the gym or doing something very physical because you'll have a tendency to take things to extremes. You don't want to pull a muscle in the cause of getting fit! Uplifting colours are ebony and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 17 and 49.
 
It's easy to overdo things today, so be careful. Be especially wary if you're thinking of spending money or going out on the town with a friend, because common sense will fly out of the window and a reckless desire to throw your money around will take its place. This is not good news, so do your best to control your urge to splurge. Beneficial colours are aquamarine and teal. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
Everything starts to get to you today, making you feel bad- tempered and tetchy. Maybe you've got too much on your plate and you're wondering where to start, or you're feeling bogged down by duties that you wish you could duck out of. It's a difficult time but don't make it worse by taking your anger and frustration out on the people around you who don't really deserve it. Soothing colours are strawberry and claret. Lucky numbers are 32 and 38.
 
Someone doesn't know where to draw the line today, and as a result may go completely over the top. Let's hope that this person isn't you, because you could end up feeling very embarrassed when you realize what you've done. Be especially wary about rising to challenges and taking risks, because what seems harmless at the time may turn out to be foolhardy and possibly even dangerous. Beneficial colours are black onyx and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 21 and 36.
 
Do your best to take things easy this Thursday otherwise you could overdo it and end up feeling exhausted. This is true whether you're doing something that requires mental or physical stamina, because you simply won't know when to stop. For instance, if you're doing some decorating or DIY you'll carry on until you're ready to drop. You might also start a project that's too ambitious for you to finish, so take care. Energising colours are fuchsia and mango. Lucky numbers are 36 and 60.
 
You'll value having some time to yourself today, even if you can only snatch a few minutes here and there. It's quality rather than quantity that counts this Wednesday, so do your best to relax and unwind completely whenever you get the chance. A conversation with a loved one could turn into a session in which you confide your secrets in one another. Favourable colours are toffee and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 36 and 64.
 
You're feeling much more practical and logical than yesterday, making it a good opportunity to catch up with any tasks that had to be put to one side. You'll make a great impression on any bosses or authority figures who happen to be around, thanks to your efficient and calm manner. If you go shopping at some point, you'll look for items that are well-made and good value for money. You won't be interested in fripperies or five-minute wonders. Fortunate colours are blonde and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 40 and 25.
 
Taking a positive attitude to life is a big help today. It will put you in a good mood, for a start, and could also attract some luck in your direction. You'll enjoy having a change of scene at some point, whether it's a walk round the block or you're going further afield. If your thoughts turn to holidays you'll enjoy planning your next trip and decided where to go. Outrageous colours are aqua and magenta. Lucky numbers are 12 and 30.
 
Pull out the stops at work because you'll give everyone a very good impression of your capabilities. You don't have to do anything very remarkable, either, because even if you're simply getting on with day-to-day tasks you'll do them to the best of your ability. If you've recently started a new job it's a good opportunity to break the ice with a colleague or boss. Auspicious colours are blackberry and copper. Lucky numbers are 9 and 4.
 
Conversations and discussions go really well this now, because everyone concerned shares the same aims and intentions. This means you'll be able to sort out lots of topics, and even resolve some that have been sticking points recently. It's also a good day for cultivating your social life, whether that means going out with a friend or having a chat with a neighbour over the garden wall. Auspicious colours are dark red and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 1.
 
Your brain is working well, especially when it comes to tackling paperwork connected with your job or health. A conversation or meeting with someone influential will go well, too. It's also a good day to tidy up all the files on your computer, perhaps deleting anything that you no longer need or trying to get everything into some sort of logical order. Opportunistic colours are mother of pearl and bright red. Lucky numbers are 7 and 64.
 
You're in a very playful and relaxed mood today, so do something enjoyable. It will be good fun to spend time with some children, especially if you play games with them and remember what it's like to be a child yourself. At some point you'll enjoy chatting to one of your favourite people, even if you have to ring them to do it. Auspicious colours are tan and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 25 and 74.
 
Put some effort into your relationships today, because all your hard work will quickly be repaid. Not that it will feel like hard work - anything but.

Inspiring colours are mango and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 45.
 
Get yourself organized today. This will be a lot easier than you imagine, provided that you give yourself a head start by thinking about things in advance. Rather than rush into an activity without any forethought, you should consider the best way to go about it first, and what would be the best timing. You'll be amazed at how practical you feel as a result. Stable colours are jade and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 4 and 52.
 
This is a terrific day for taking a good, long look at your domestic set-up and deciding whether it could do with some improvements. Maybe you've been thinking about moving house, or extending your current home, in which case this is a very good opportunity to think carefully about the pros and cons. Can you afford it? What's the best thing to do under the circumstances? Receptive colours are indigo and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 3.
 
This is a wonderful day for mixing with people whose company you always enjoy. Get together with some of your favourite friends, or ring up someone you haven't seen in a while. If you fancy going shopping you'll enjoy buying items that stimulate your brain and give you plenty to think about, such as a non-fiction book or a documentary on DVD. Fortunate colours are burgundy and lavender. Lucky numbers are 28 and 50.
 
This is a great day for talking about things that mean a lot to you, but only if you trust the person you're confiding in. You certainly won't want to chatter away about very personal things to any old person, so choose your confidant carefully. You'll also enjoy spending time relaxing at home, doing as little as possible. Energising colours are silvery brown and silver. Lucky numbers are 36 and 50.
 
It's a great start to the month because you're in such a good mood. What's more, so is everyone else! This means you'll sail through the day in style, surrounded by beaming faces. You might want to cash in on this relaxed atmosphere by getting in touch with people who can sometimes be tricky to deal with, because you should have no problems with them this Tuesday. Favourable colours are dark green and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 30.
 
It's obvious that someone cares about you but they can't help sticking their nose in where it's not wanted today. Maybe they think you're holding back some information from them and they're determined to get it out of you or perhaps they're suspicious of what you're up to. Whatever is bugging them, you'll know all about it as they give you the third degree. If you're the one who's consumed by curiosity, make sure you know when to stop asking questions. Fortunate colours are black satin and red velvet. Lucky numbers are 35 and 46.
 
It's not the greatest start to March, because once thoughts lodge in your head you'll find it very difficult to shift them. This means you'll quickly get distracted by them and unable to think about anything else. The best way to cope with this is to make sure you have plenty of diversions and that you get some physical exercise. And try not to brood about things! Expansive colours are tartan and peach. Lucky numbers are 22 and 61.
 
Be careful what you say because your words could carry a sting that you aren't aware of at the time. It will only be when you see someone's wounded expression, or hear their sharp intake of breath, that you realize what you've said. So don't be slow to apologize if you think it's necessary! You should also be wary of revealing someone's secrets or dropping heavy-handed hints. Auspicious colours are blueberry and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 5 and 48.
 
Curiosity killed the cat, so they say, and today it gets the better of someone who should have more manners. They're intrigued by something that you consider to be very personal and none of their business, and they won't rest until they've wormed very detail out of you. You may have to tell them where to get off. This is a great day for thinking about how to finance a future project, but don't let these thoughts turn into an obsession. Advantageous colours are american oak and jet black. Lucky numbers are 7 and 23.
 
The better someone knows you, the more freedom they think they have to pry into your personal life today, and you don't like it. They are probably only doing this because they care about you, but you may have to tell them to back off at some point. Don't fall into the same trap if you want to know more about a loved one's life, otherwise you'll get rapped over the knuckles pretty hard. Lively colours are sage and green. Lucky numbers are 29 and 5.
 
You start the month feeling really good, so enjoy yourself! Close relationships work well today, whether they're with your partner or other members of your family, as there are few expectations of one another. Instead, you're happy to let people be themselves, and it's a recipe for success. If you've been thinking about a possible house move, this is a good day for taking things one step further. Steamy colours are sable and spearmint. Lucky numbers are 39 and 46.
 
Take it easy today, otherwise everything will get on top of you and you'll find it hard to stay on track of what you're doing. Before you know what's happening, your thoughts will be going round and round in your head, and you'll get completely wrapped up in problems that don't really matter. Try to be tidy and organized because if you lose something you'll waste hours searching for it. Adventurous colours are aqua and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 14 and 41.
 
You need to do some straight talking this Tuesday in order to unravel the problems that have sprung up with a certain person. Although you may be tempted to pretend that nothing's wrong, such a tactic will only postpone the agony of having to sort things out and may also make them worse because everyone concerned will have time to brood and feel hard-done-by. Not good! Practical colours are turquoise and brown. Lucky numbers are 5 and 10.
 
If you're a typical Cancerian you're a born collector, and today you can't stop yourself collecting facts and figures. It's great for doing some sort of research, especially if it's connected with travel, work or health. But make sure you get plenty of breaks otherwise you'll start to feel bogged down with information and be unable to think straight. You might also get a bee in your bonnet about something and struggle to stop thinking about it. Ideal colours are plum and lime. Lucky numbers are 36 and 1.
 
A certain person is consumed by curiosity today and they won't rest until they've got the answers they're looking for. Unfortunately, this could be a rather uncomfortable experience for everyone else because this person won't know when to stop asking questions or prying into other people's business. Be honest with them because they'll only become paranoid if they think you're trying to hide something, but don't let them overstep the mark. Favourable colours are turquoise and fire engine red. Lucky numbers are 14 and 47.
 
By nature you're a very private person, so you won't like it when someone pries into things that you believe are none of their business. You may even get the impression that there's something underhand or sneaky about their interest in your affairs. This certainly isn't the day for sharing your secrets with someone because they could soon become public knowledge. If in doubt, say nothing at all. Favourable colours are dark green and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 13 and 54.
 
Friends have a wonderful way of cheering you up and making you feel good today. You might have a nice exchange of emails with one of them, or find the time to meet for a cup of coffee in the middle of the day. Don't worry if you can't do anything sociable this Monday because you can always make arrangements for something later in the week. It will be good to have something to look forward to. Ideal colours are lemon and coffee. Lucky numbers are 63 and 75.
 
You yearn to do something a little different, Pisces: it doesn't have to be drastic, but a short departure from your usual routine will certainly make you sparkle. If you're going out for a meal, consider trying a different cuisine for a change, especially if it's rather exotic. The prospect of travel also appeals to you now, making you dream of going on holiday. Has it got to remain a dream or could you turn it into reality? Expressive colours are bright red and sable. Lucky numbers are 12 and 4.
 
Open your mind to new facts and ideas today. They could come courtesy of a friend who's full of information about something you've never heard of before, or you might read something fascinating in a book or magazine. The most important thing right now is to keep your mind and your options open, and not to dismiss any idea until you've thought it through carefully. Receptive colours are plum and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 43.
 
A friend helps you to see yourself in a clearer light today. They might encourage you to talk about some of your fears or hang-ups, or they could help you to thrash out some other problem that's bugging you at the moment. Alternatively, you'll want to do the same for them, in which case you should choose your words carefully so you don't say the wrong thing or sound too harsh. Expressive colours are grape and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 3 and 19.
 
It's a wonderful day for enjoying yourself, because you'll make the most of everything you do. But you'll have a good time even if you don't do anything special, purely because you're in such a gregarious and easy-going mood. Having said that, it would be a shame to spend the entire day alone unless that's your idea of heaven. Ring a friend for a chat, meet a mate for coffee or hit the town. Ideal colours are auburn and spring green. Lucky numbers are 35 and 11.
 
It's a day for enjoying yourself whenever you get the chance, which could be more often than you imagined. You could get lots of treats and nice surprises, or someone might issue an invitation that's far too good to refuse.

Fun colours are fuchsia and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 22 and 59.
 
There's nothing you'd like better today than a few treats, so work out how you can pamper yourself. If the day's your own, you might decide to spend it being as lazy as possible, but if you're supposed to be working you'll have to fit in some hedonism around your day-to-day schedule. Don't worry, it can be done, and you won't have to spend a fortune in the process because even modest treats will do the trick. Fortunate colours are bright gold and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 7 and 15.
 
This is a delightful day for being around lots of people. You haven't got the energy to take on anyone who's very difficult or demanding, but you'll be at your most charming when talking to people who are pleasant and polite.

This is a brilliant day for being organized and efficient, whether you're at home or at work. You're in exactly the right frame of mind for solving problems, being brave and discovering what's lurking at the back of the fridge, or going through that mound of paper on your desk. You may even manage to fix any domestic items that are threatening to go on the blink, or you might decide to send them to the mender's before they let you down. Fantastic! Beneficial colours are grape and tan. Lucky numbers are 27 and 71.
 
It's a great day for Gemini, because everyone wants your company, and it seems that they all want to be your friend.

Lucky numbers are 6 and 29.

Get ready to fall in love with something or someone exotic during the next four weeks! You could be dazzled by someone who comes from a completely different background to yours, or who is endlessly fascinating. Or you might visit another country and lose your heart to it.

The more you're expected to be subservient, obedient or to behave like an unpaid slave, the more determined you'll be to stick up for yourself today.

The more boring and predictable your world is, the more you'll long to shake it up a little this Friday. So where are you going to start?

Empowering colours are cream and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 40 and 69.
 
An intimate relationship offers you the chance to grow and develop today, although this will undoubtedly happen in ways you weren't expecting.

Liberating colours are silver and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 31 and 34.
 
You're gripped by restlessness and boredom today, and it feels as though your life is very restrictive, even if that isn't really the case at all.

It's time to adopt a new attitude to your values in life, and you'll be astonished by what happens as a result.

Don't make any big decisions while you're in this state of flux, but wait for a few days to make sure you aren't making spontaneous gestures that you'll later regret. Insightful colours are terracotta and spring green. Lucky numbers are 6 and 20.
 
Do yourself a favour and mix with people who are a bit different, or even eccentric today. It will do you good and bring out an unexpected side of your personality that could do with an airing.

This is no day to get stuck in a rut, so get ready to break out in some way.

You might also have a flash of inspiration about a plan for the future, so put on your thinking cap. Auspicious colours are azure and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 6 and 60.
 
If you're a typical Cancerian you have a tendency to cling to things and people that feel familiar and safe, but today you're encouraged to branch out in new directions and do things for the first time. This could be anything from booking the holiday of a lifetime to making an appointment to see an astrologer. Dare to be different and to forget about what others might think of you as a result. It's time to be your own person, whoever that happens to be. Good luck! Favourable colours are cherry pink and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 11 and 44.
 
Be prepared to show a different side of yourself today, Pisces.

Dynamic colours are bright orange and rich yellow. Lucky numbers are 22 and 9.
 
Don't be too dogmatic or self-righteous during the next two weeks. That's the message that's being beamed at you by today's Full Moon, so take note whenever you feel convinced that you've got all the facts or that your opinion is the only one that counts.

Your home life will be affected during the coming two weeks by today's Full Moon. Any problems that you've been refusing to face up to will now make their presence known, creating a slight sense of crisis and agitation.

Opportune colours are jet black and plum. Lucky numbers are 33 and 34.
 
Today's Full Moon is urging you to think carefully about your long-range hopes and wishes. Are they on track for success or do you secretly know that they'll never amount to anything?

Besides, it will do you good to have something to aim for. Fortunate colours are passionfruit and mango. Lucky numbers are 38 and 22.

There's a Full Moon today and it's going to affect your personal life during the coming two weeks.

Lucky numbers are 26 and 66.
 
Today's Full Moon is shining its beams on your career and long- term goals. In doing so it's drawing your attention to this area of your life, and telling you to make your mind up about something.

This is also a good opportunity to tidy up any red tape before it ties you in knots. Advantageous colours are lemon and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 18 and 62.
 
Today's Full Moon is drawing your attention to money matters, shared finances and intimate relationships. That's quite a lot to be getting on with, and you'll get quite upset if any problems turn into a crisis.

Receptive colours are velvety black and pale blue. Lucky numbers are 21 and 14.
 
A certain person is being very needy today, and it's obvious that they need you. How can you tell? Well, they might ring up and then be reluctant to get off the phone, or they could insist on seeing you even though it isn't really convenient for you. Such neediness may be irritating for you but try to see the situation from the other person's point of view, especially if you know they're lonely or going through a hard time at the moment. Besides, isn't it nice to be wanted? Receptive colours are burgundy and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 5.
 
Spare some time for someone who's feeling under the weather today. Whether or not you think they're as ill as they're saying, it's a good idea to give them your support and possibly even to do a few chores for them. Maybe you could do some shopping for them, plump up their pillows or simply hold their hand? If they live too far away for all that, why not give them a ring or send them a card to cheer them up? Opportunistic colours are crimson and black. Lucky numbers are 26 and 28.
 
Money is a key priority for you this February and once again it's a day when you must handle your finances with care. This is especially true if you're feeling off-balance emotionally or in need of some comfort, because one way to get it is to spend your way out of your miserable mood. But will that cause more problems than it solves in the long run, especially if you're already feeling fed up about your finances? If you really must spend some money, set yourself a modest budget and then stick to it. Fortunate colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 36 and 16.
 
You really come into your own at work today: efficient, practical and no-nonsense, which is great for doing some trouble-shooting or simply making sure that everything is running smoothly.

Playful colours are caramel and taupe. Lucky numbers are 10 and 46.
 
A friend needs a lot of love and support today, so try to find the time for them. This may be rather inconvenient, of course, but you'll want to do your best for this person. Unless, that is, they make a habit of being emotionally demanding, in which case your patience will wear a bit thin. Even so, it's highly likely that you'll still end up bending over backwards for this person. Favourable colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 21 and 64.
 
You can learn a lot about your emotions today simply by paying attention to them.

Lucky numbers are 20 and 12.
 
Your partner needs a lot of your time and attention this Wednesday, which could cause problems if you aren't in the mood or have other fish to fry.

You'll want to say something if they always expect you to be at their beck and call. Harmonious colours are caramel and grape. Lucky numbers are 13 and 2.
 
You're in a gregarious mood and you'll sparkle with whoever happens to be around.

Lucky numbers are 31 and 55.
 
No matter what you're doing this Wednesday, spare a thought for members of the family who are going through a difficult time at the moment.

Be prepared to give them plenty of love and support, and to do so with a generous heart. Beneficial colours are lemon and lime. Lucky numbers are 8 and 62.
 
You're looking for a good time today and you won't be satisfied with anything less. You certainly have no interest in work, nor in anything else that feels like a chore or which stops you enjoying yourself. It will do you good to get out of the house and, preferably, to visit somewhere that you don't know very well. Take a chatty companion with you. Auspicious colours are dark pink and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 7 and 32.
 
The past exerts a strong hold over you. You can't help comparing certain aspects of the present day with how things used to be, making you feel rather sad. It's fine to indulge in some nostalgia like this, but don't allow yourself to believe that your past was much better than it really was. Do your best to arrange something nice to look forward to. Dazzling colours are fuchsia and banana. Lucky numbers are 35 and 34.
 
You're often rather shy and reserved, but today you're ready to open up to the right person.

Lucky numbers are 7 and 26.
 
If you've been wondering when is the best time to sort out a financial muddle or do some clever negotiating, get cracking this Tuesday while you're in exactly the right frame of mind.

Which is pretty good going! Revealing colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 22 and 4.
 
Remember those ideas that you had on Sunday? Well, you're now ready to discuss them with other people, whether you simply want to get their feedback or you need their cooperation before putting your plans into action.

Do you have many outside interests? Would you like to develop a few more? If so, consider your options. Is there a club or society that you've often thought about joining?

You might also feel the urge to get more involved in one of your hobbies. Prosperous colours are dark green and amber. Lucky numbers are 12 and 77.
 
Conversations take a lively turn today, and you'll gladly give as good as you get. There won't be anything malicious or mean-spirited about this, so don't worry about getting caught up in a slanging match. Instead, you'll enjoy some mind-bending discussions. All the same, there will be no flies on you if you take part in a negotiation, and you'll score points left, right and centre. Ideal colours are golden honey and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 25 and 77.
 
There's no need to worry if you're taking part in a discussion or important meeting, or you're going to a job interview, today.

Even when chatting with older friends, parents or your other half, you'll be able to express yourself with clarity and vigour. Favourable colours are dark purple and bright red. Lucky numbers are 18 and 39.
 
Someone has a way with words this Tuesday - fiery, spirited and not afraid to say what they think, yet they won't become abusive or rude in the process. Maybe you could learn from this in some way, especially if you're usually very careful about giving others the right impression of yourself? Perhaps it's time to be rather more daring than usual? Auspicious colours are plum and lavender. Lucky numbers are 5 and 52.
 
Your thoughts are speeded up today, enabling you to think and process ideas much more rapidly than usual. This is great if you've got to make quick decisions or stay ahead of the game in a discussion, and you'll impress everyone around you. However, you may decide that some of your ideas should be kept secret for the time being, perhaps because they aren't yet ready to see the light of day. Fortunate colours are lime and satin black. Lucky numbers are 24 and 1.
 
You'll enjoy keeping on the move today, even if that simply means rushing around like a headless chook at home or taking lots of short journeys in the course of your day-to-day activities. The one thing you won't appreciate is being stuck in one place for hours on end, with nothing to keep you interested. If that happens, you'll amuse yourself by starting a heated debate with someone or making some spiky comments. Inspirational colours are fuchsia and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 25 and 2.
 
You'll have no problems standing up for yourself today, whether you're talking to your other half or a colleague.

This is also a good day for ironing out any mundane financial matters that need your attention, especially if they call for persistence and effort. Propitious colours are shimmering gold and lilac. Lucky numbers are 29 and 61.
 
Get ready for a lively discussion with a friend. They'll manage to draw you out of your shell, and you may even say things that you wouldn't normally utter purely because you're being encouraged to speak your mind. If you're trying to organize a forthcoming social event, this is a great day to advance your preparations by getting on the phone or sending a blizzard of emails, and making sure that everyone concerned knows what's going on. Liberating colours are bright red and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 2 and 3.
 
It's the ideal day for getting involved in some negotiations because you'll be able to play your hand without giving away too many of your tactics or motives. You'll also be very quick at noticing if someone starts playing games with you or trying to trick you in some way. Yet you'll manage to do all this with charm and wit, which will ensure there are no hard feelings no matter how things turn out. Expressive colours are mango and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 37 and 77.
 
You're very quick witted today, especially if you have to explain your actions or justify yourself in some way.

Ideal colours are copper and platinum. Lucky numbers are 7 and 35.
 
Try to find the time to study your finances at some point today, simply to make sure that everything is flowing smoothly.

A friend has a lot of influence over you today, even if you aren't conscious of it at the time. For instance, you might start mimicking their body language, or you could absorb everything they tell you without questioning it for a second. If you meet someone for the first time now they'll have a powerful impact on you, whether you like them or hate them. Divine colours are dark pink and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 37 and 15.
 
Focus on financial matters this Monday because you'll handle them with intelligence and shrewdness. This is the perfect day for negotiating a better deal or asking for a pay rise at work, and you'll be delighted by the results. If you've got your eye on a colleague and have been wondering when to make your move, things are working in your favour right now provided that you don't come across as too pushy or predatory. Communicative colours are ginger and avocado. Lucky numbers are 26 and 45.
 
Your idea of heaven this Monday is to lock yourself away from the rest of the world and to have some precious time to yourself. You certainly aren't interested in doing things that merely pass the time, because these will make you feel frustrated and short-changed. If you're currently involved in a secret relationship, it's about to move into a new phase. Auspicious colours are cream and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 7.
 
It's a good day for spending money, provided that you do it wisely and aren't buying things purely to keep yourself amused. If a household appliance or work-related item has been playing up lately, this is a good day either to get it mended or to buy a replacement. At some point, you could be on the receiving end of someone's confidences, so listen carefully. Beneficial colours are tangerine and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 35 and 72.
 
This is turning out to be quite a month for your relationships and today you get another chance to make deep emotional contact with some of the people in your life.

Lucky numbers are 17 and 17.
 
If money has been burning a hole in your pocket recently you'll be pleased to hear that this is a marvellous day to go shopping.

Instead, you should make your money count and only buy items that are essential or which will transform your life in some way. Fortunate colours are silver and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 7 and 37.
 
There's a powerful attraction flowing between you and someone you respect today, giving you plenty to think about. You will be especially perplexed if this person is off-limits for some reason, perhaps because they're your boss or the parent of a friend. What's going on? You'll probably have to keep your feelings to yourself, especially if you're worried about shocking someone, but that's all part of the fun. Exciting colours are bright green and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 73.
 
It would be a shame to spend too much time by yourself, because you could meet someone who has quite an impact on you. You might be very taken by their appearance or there could be a mysterious bond between you that makes you want to see them again. Take care if you're already committed to someone else because today's sexual chemistry will make it hard to put this new person out of your mind. You could be playing with fire! Fortunate colours are cobalt blue and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 38 and 68.
 
Keep in touch with the people around you today because you'll gain a lot from them. You might have an in-depth conversation with someone in which you both discuss your feelings, or you'll gain a greater understanding of what makes a certain person tick.

Take heart if you're single, because you could meet someone who knocks you sideways today. There will be a strong attraction between you, even if it's still very early days in your relationship, and you won't be able to get them out of your head. If you're already involved with someone, you'll be able to gain a better understanding of what makes them tick now. Passionate colours are scarlet and purple. Lucky numbers are 55 and 41.
 
You'll have to scrape your eyebrows off the ceiling when you hear what a certain person has to say for themselves! They may say things that are shocking, controversial or the complete opposite of what they usually think, so be prepared. But you should also consider that they may be deliberately trying to wind you up by saying the most outrageous things they can think of, so maybe you won't want to give them the satisfaction of rising to the bait? Favourable colours are silvery blue and avocado. Lucky numbers are 4 and 30.
 
Someone's doing some radical thinking about emotional matters today, so prepare to be stunned by what they come up with. On the other hand, you may be the one who's coming up with ideas that leave everyone else speechless, in which case you'll start to wonder whether you should carry on talking or shut up. But the fact is that you don't want to shut up and you've got some important things to say, so keep talking. Auspicious colours are grey and platinum. Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
 
As far as you're concerned, a certain person has very skewed values. In fact, you won't believe what you hear today and you may even suspect that your leg is being pulled. Well, maybe it is and maybe it isn't, but either way you're being encouraged to look at your priorities in life with fresh eyes. How do you really feel about them and have they changed recently? Be honest with yourself! Fortunate colours are aquamarine and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 39 and 4.
 
You're fascinated by ideas today, especially if they make you view the world in a different way or they stretch your imagination. An intellectual discussion will get you thinking, too. However, the greatest revelations may come courtesy of a friend who either makes a startling pronouncement or who introduces you to a totally new concept. It pays to be open-minded this Sunday. Favourable colours are sky blue and copper. Lucky numbers are 16 and 17.
 
You see someone in a totally new light today. The more you respect them, or the more fixed your opinion is of them, the more surprised you'll be when they reveal a completely different side of their personality. You might also hear some surprising or unexpected news about your job or about someone you work for. Receptive colours are bright orange and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 59.
 
Are you ready to hear some astonishing news? Then listen carefully to what people tell you today, because someone could drop a bombshell before too long. How will you take it?

Jot down your most interesting or valuable thoughts in case you forget them with the arrival of the next brainwave. Favourable colours are aquamarine and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
A certain person is a real live wire, even if it does make them rather unpredictable and outrageous in the process. Never mind, because you'll enjoy listening to what they've got to say, even if some of it does make you think twice or do a double-take. If you hear anything really shocking, try to remind yourself that this person may not mean it and is really playing a game with you. They're trying to see how far they can push you! Opportune colours are shimmering gold and pale green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 31.
 
You're brilliant today, although it will be in ways you weren't expecting, or aren't used to. So don't dismiss your ideas as crazy or impractical simply because they don't conform to the way you usually think. It's a day for thinking outside the box and coming up with some radical or far-sighted solutions. Let the ideas come and write them down before you forget them, and then evaluate them in a couple of days' time. You might amaze yourself! Favourable colours are dark purple and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 34 and 48.
 
Has a certain someone gone completely mad or are they talking more sense than you realize? You can't help wondering, given the rubbish that is coming out of this person's mouth. However, before you leap to unfair conclusions, you should ask yourself whether this person has actually got his or her finger on the pulse of life and you're the one who's out of step. The situation isn't as clear-cut as it might seem. Ideal colours are fuchsia and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 28 and 11.
 
You're shocked by some of the thoughts that go through your mind today. Maybe they seem unworthy of you, or they're so rude that you're glad no one knows what you're thinking. Alternatively, you might be staggered by what someone tells you, perhaps because it's totally outrageous or because it concerns something that you've always considered to be taboo. What a day! Naughty colours are brass and crimson. Lucky numbers are 23 and 52.
 
Your thoughts take an unusual turn this Sunday, and you may even be rather astonished by what you come up with. Write down any ideas that pop into your head before you forget them, because your mind is racing right now and it will be hard to keep track of all your thoughts. Make sure you get plenty of breaks, though, and take some physical exercise, otherwise spending so much time in your head will make you feel rather nervy and agitated. Outrageous colours are fiery red and velvety black. Lucky numbers are 38 and 56.
 
Someone has wacky ideas about how to spend your money today. Are they talking complete nonsense or should you pay attention to what they're telling you? Well, you should definitely listen because there may be a lot more sense in what they say than you imagine. Your brain is working overtime right now, so jot down the ideas that come to you otherwise they'll disappear again as fast as they arrived. And you can't afford to lose a single one of them. Fortuitous colours are blackberry and mango. Lucky numbers are 6 and 45.
 
Don't impose any boundaries on your brain today. Instead, allow your mind to wander wherever it wants to go, and enjoy the journey. You might pick up a book that turns out to be absolutely fascinating, or you could start to think about arranging your next holiday and then get really excited about visiting a new destination. Stay open-minded and receptive, and then you'll get the best of today's astrological influences. Revealing colours are mother of pearl and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 18 and 14.
 
Love and money don't go together today, as you'll soon discover. A shopping trip with your other half could turn into a slanging match when you disagree about what to buy or how much you should spend. There's also a possibility that an argument about money may be the outward expression of an underlying problem connected with sex or jealousy. Beneficial colours are smoky quartz and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 25 and 10.
 
Get together with some of your favourite people today, even if it's only for a short while. You'll love being with them, especially if that means catching up on all the gossip.

Wonderful colours are sky blue and bright pink. Lucky numbers are 6 and 41.
 
Someone close to home is in rather an aggressive and combative mood today, so watch out!

Try not to raise the ante unless you really are prepared to take the consequences and become involved in a shouting match. Fortunate colours are violet and russet. Lucky numbers are 10 and 37.
 
Temper, temper! Someone's breathing fire this Saturday, making them rather heated and volatile company. Is it you, by any chance? If so, you'll lose your temper at every opportunity, making it a bad-tempered day full of squabbles and spats. Try to work out what's wrong so you can do something about it, because sniping at others will soon become exhausting and self-defeating. It will also help to get some physical exercise, such as walking off your anger. Beneficial colours are salmon pink and ebony. Lucky numbers are 35 and 66.
 
Watch your step today, otherwise you'll get caught up in a bad- tempered exchange with someone. If this happens there won't be any winners because neither of you will be prepared to let the other one have the last word, and as a result you'll carry on with tit-for-tat actions and slanging matches all day long. This will be exhausting and won't get you anywhere, so try not to get drawn into the fracas in the first place. Find more productive ways of working off your nervous energy. Fortunate colours are ivory and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 8 and 1.
 
It's easy to get on well with others today, thanks to your easy going attitude and ability to chat to all and sundry. You don't have to talk about anything terribly important, either, so don't worry if most of your conversations hinge on everyday matters or the latest gossip. At some point, you'll enjoy taking part in a group activity, such as getting together with a gang of friends. Fortunate colours are ivory and gold. Lucky numbers are 4 and 75.
 
Someone close to home has a tendency to shoot first and ask questions later, today. They're in a combustible and fiery mood, making you want to give them a wide berth. However, you're also feeling pretty fired-up, so it will be awfully easy for you to rise to the bait. Harmonious colours are fawn and maroon. Lucky numbers are 37 and 74.
 
At some point today, have a think about some of the improvements you can make to your home. You don't have to do them all immediately, especially if some of them will cost a packet, but it's good to make plans about what to do and when. If you're planning to make changes that will affect other people, make sure you discuss your ideas with them before swinging into action. You must keep them fully informed. Harmonious colours are avocado and aqua. Lucky numbers are 13 and 52.
 
The more someone considers themselves to be put upon and treated like Cinderella before she met her Prince Charming, the more likely they are to lash out and lose their temper today. So beware of adopting a martyr complex yourself because it will make you scratchy and hard to live with. If someone else is behaving like this, ask them what's wrong and encourage them to tell you, even if you suspect that you won't like what you hear. Favourable colours are pale pink and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 17 and 46.
 
Take things gently today because emotions are rather fraught. It seems that someone is in a tearing hurry and they'll get very agitated if everyone else is too slow off the mark. You might get impatient with someone who can't move very fast through ill health or you could get irritable when their job commitments interfere with your social plans. Get plenty of exercise otherwise the slightest little thing will set off your temper. Stabilising colours are sage green and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 30 and 40.
 
Someone has a short fuse this Saturday, which means you could get your head bitten off if you say or do the wrong thing. Maybe this person has good reason to get angry with you, in which case you should think carefully about what you've done to upset them. If you're the one with steam coming out of your ears, try not to get agitated about every little thing that bugs you otherwise you'll end up feeling totally fraught and no one will be speaking to you! Auspicious colours are pale pink and ochre. Lucky numbers are 30 and 65.
 
Life starts to look much rosier from today, and this upbeat phase will continue for the coming four weeks. Don't let it pass you by without doing something memorable and enjoyable, such as rising to a challenge or having the courage to do something you've always wanted to try. There's a lot of luck around between now and mid-March, but it will bypass you unless you create the opportunities for good fortune to come your way. In other words, don't just sit around waiting for good things to land in your lap! Fortunate colours are aqua and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 4 and 76.
 
Get talking to some of the people in your life this Friday. It's a wonderful day for making contact with others, whether you're ringing them for a chat or meeting to discuss the most momentous news you've heard in years. If you've been having problems with a close member of the family or a neighbour recently, this is a good day for trying to sort things out and create a more peaceful atmosphere between you. Favourable colours are coffee and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 39.
 
Enjoyment has been your main priority during the past four weeks but the picture is now changing and you're starting to take more notice of your work and duties. This is certainly a good day for catching up with the chores, and for making sure that you haven't overlooked anything important recently. Colleagues and bosses are helpful and friendly, so it's a favourable day for talking to them or asking their advice. Beneficial colours are dark gold and plum. Lucky numbers are 17 and 48.
 
Good news! The accent is on your love life and creativity for the next four weeks, and it looks as though there's plenty of enjoyment in the pipeline for you. Start by arranging some social activities so you've got something to look forward to. This is the perfect time to express your true self in some way, especially if it involves something arty, sporty or dramatic. This is no time to stand in the shadows - your place is in the limelight! Favourable colours are chocolate and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 8 and 56.
 
During the coming four weeks you need to think about your long- term aims and ambitions. How are they coming along or have your virtually ignored them recently? Try to set yourself a goal and work steadily towards it, because when you've achieved it will be a fabulous boost to your ego. You may also be given more responsibility during the coming month. Stabilising colours are pale green and toffee. Lucky numbers are 27 and 64.
 
Immersing yourself in home comforts, or getting together with loved ones will make you feel all warm inside today. You're in a relaxed and loving mood, and will enjoy being with people who know you well and who don't expect you to be something you're not. You might even be inspired to do some cooking, especially if it's delicious comfort food. Favourable colours are amethyst and jade. Lucky numbers are 27 and 48.
 
Close relationships take on added significance from today, and they'll continue to occupy your thoughts for the next four weeks. This is a brilliant phase for getting closer to some of the people in your life and establishing a more intimate rapport with them. This could be emotional rather than sexual intimacy, although you probably won't be averse to a lot of action in the bedroom. Practical colours are ebony and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 13 and 47.
 
Personal concerns are highlighted from today, making it the start of a month in which you'll want to devote a lot of time to them. It's a great opportunity to start new projects and ventures, especially if you've been waiting for the right moment to get them off the ground. You'll be blessed with extra confidence and initiative, so make the most of these whenever you get the chance. You don't know what you can do until you try! Stabilising colours are topaz and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 8 and 65.
 
Financial matters take on added importance now, and this phase will continue for the next four weeks. During this time you might evaluate people on the basis of what they own rather than who they are, or you could consider yourself a failure because you don't have as many assets as someone you admire. Try to avoid being materialistic because it isn't your style and in the end it will only make you unhappy. Auspicious colours are apricot and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 43.
 
You've been concentrating so much on your goals and ambitions during the past four weeks that other areas of your life have had to take a back seat. Well, you now get the chance to devote more time to them, especially if this means getting together with friends, taking part in some group activities or relaxing with a favourite hobby. You deserve some light relief! Ideal colours are sunflower yellow and apricot. Lucky numbers are 32 and 6.
 
As an adventurous Sagittarian, you usually have your eye fixed firmly on distant horizons but during the next four weeks you'll be much more interested in what's going on under your nose. That's because you'll be happiest when you're in familiar surroundings, preferably surrounded by people you know inside out. Maybe this is your chance to rediscover some of your roots, simply by spending more time with your family and closest friends. Fortunate colours are silvery grey and primrose yellow. Lucky numbers are 4 and 54.
 
The astrological emphasis is slowly switching from work to your relationships, and it takes another step in that direction today. During the next four weeks you'll discover a lot about yourself by being with other people. For example, you might get a better idea of what you think about something by discussing it with someone else, and you'll also feel more complete when you're with people than when you're by yourself. Auspicious colours are pale pink and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 36 and 75.
 
You're in such a self indulgent mood, that it will be a real struggle to make yourself do anything that smacks of hard work or pressure. Instead, you'd much rather mooch about, doing as little as possible, preferably in the company of a very special person. Watch out if you're going shopping because you'll find it hard to resist temptation and could end up spending far more money than you should. Ideal colours are violet and sable. Lucky numbers are 36 and 41.
 
This promises to be a red letter day because you're feeling so cheerful, happy and lucky. It's certainly a day for enjoying yourself as much as possible, especially if you've got something to celebrate such as your birthday. The only snag will come if you're expected to do some hard work because that's the last thing on your mind right now and you'll do almost anything to avoid it. But don't skirt important issues and then get into trouble as a result. Exuberant colours are hot pink and shimmering silver. Lucky numbers are 8 and 1.
 
Keep a close eye on your finances today unless you're in the happy position of being absolutely loaded with plenty of money to burn. Yet even then you might spend more than you should, because this is one of those days when you long to give into temptation and indulge yourself. So watch it if you're out window-shopping because one glance at that must-have item could be your undoing. Maybe you should leave your credit cards at home so you can't use them even if you want to? Beneficial colours are blackberry and fawn. Lucky numbers are 35 and 71.
 
Put a big ring around this date in your diary, if you're reading this in advance. It's one of the most enjoyable days of the entire month so it would be a shame to let it go by without doing something special. It's the perfect excuse to hit the town with some of your friends, or perhaps you'd prefer to do some elegant entertaining at home. You're in the mood to do things to excess, so be warned unless you really don't mind waking up with a sore head tomorrow. Peaceful colours are dark green and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 10 and 47.
 
Things return to normal today, and once again you're in a sunny- tempered and happy-go-lucky mood. Enjoy this upbeat phase while it lasts, especially if you can get together with some of your favourite people at some point this Thursday. To put the gilt on the gingerbread, you could have the sort of lucky encounter with someone that makes you want to do backflips through sheer joy. Ideal colours are tangerine and silver. Lucky numbers are 30 and 24.
 
Yesterday's bad mood has evaporated, leaving you feeling bright eyed and bushy tailed. You're in a very sunny temper today and determined to get as much enjoyment out of the day as possible. It would be a shame to spend the entire day slogging your guts out, unless that's your favourite activity, so try to find the time for some fun and games. But keep an eye on the cost unless you have unlimited funds. Fortunate colours are lemon and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 15 and 8.
 
Life is looking pretty sweet from where you're standing, and you want to celebrate. If you can't think of any other reason to raise a glass or go out on the town, celebrate the fact that it's Thursday! You certainly won't need much encouragement to go out and have a good time, but the only problem will lie in knowing when to stop, especially if you're with someone very special. Fortunate colours are copper and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 28 and 56.
 
The last thing on your mind today is anything even remotely resembling hard work. Instead, you're in the mood to be lazy, self indulgent and relaxed. That's wonderful if you can postpone anything energetic for the day, but it isn't such great news if you're expected to pull your weight because you'll struggle to do a good job. It's also a difficult day for following a strict diet or exercise regime because your willpower has gone walkabout. Opportunistic colours are umber and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 22 and 31.
 
Yesterday was unpleasant, but today is looking great, so enjoy yourself whenever you get the chance. This shouldn't be hard to do, because you're in a very upbeat and generous mood, and you'll adore being with some of your favourite people at some point. Even if you're staying at home with your family, you'll want to turn the experience into something special, perhaps by opening a bottle of wine or cooking someone's favourite meal. Uplifting colours are magenta and violet. Lucky numbers are 26 and 39.
 
Better leave your wallet or purse at home today if you're going anywhere near the shops, because it's one of those days when your willpower is non-existent and you're likely to buy all sorts of things that you don't really need. It will be great fun at the time, of course, especially if you buy some status symbols or designer clothes, but you may not feel quite so cheery when you add up how much you've spent. So be warned! Beneficial colours are sable and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 14 and 68.
 
Life has had its ups and downs this week, but thankfully you're definitely on top of things this Thursday. In fact, it looks like being one of the nicest days in the entire month, because everyone is going out of their way to be friendly and pleasant towards you, and you're doing the same to them. If you're mixing business with pleasure today, it will be a wild success provided that you know when to stop! Auspicious colours are passionfruit and ochre. Lucky numbers are 24 and 20.
 
Get ready for what promises to be one of the most enjoyable days this February. You're feeling warm, affectionate and sociable, and it would be a great shame to spend the whole day by yourself. Maybe you should have your Valentine's Day celebrations today, because they're exactly what you're in the mood for. However, if you do go out on the town it could work out quite expensive, so be warned if you're supposed to be economizing at the moment. Fortunate colours are dark red and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 2 and 57.
 
From today you need to start thinking seriously about the things that mean the most to you. Do you spend enough time on them or do they have to take a back seat to more urgent matters, even though you don't care about these nearly as much? Well, if you're feeling short-changed it's time to redress the balance in some way, even if it means getting up half an hour earlier each morning in order to fit in some time for yourself. Beneficial colours are avocado and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 23 and 44.
 
Your thoughts turn to the past today, and you'll continue to be in a nostalgic frame of mind until early March. This is exactly the spur you need to leaf through old love letters, reread your diaries or finally organize those holiday photos into some sort of order. You'll also enjoy talking about the past with the people who shared it with you. If no one is really interested, maybe you should write down your reminiscences instead. Propitious colours are cream and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 8 and 16.
 
If you were living in a world of your own yesterday, you have to face the music about it today. Someone could come down on you like a ton of bricks, or they might give you a major ticking off. Even if this doesn't happen, there is still a lot of tension between you and someone who thinks they're in charge of you. They want to call the shots and you don't like it. Expansive colours are taupe and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 4 and 31.
 
You've enjoyed expanding your mental horizons recently, so why stop now? From today, you're being encouraged to think about ways to increase your job potential and achieve some of your goals. How about retraining for a new career or adding to your existing qualifications? Don't be shy about seeking expert advice if you think it's necessary. Ideal colours are dusky rose and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 4 and 40.
 
Between now and early March there will be times when you want to be left alone with your thoughts and you won't welcome any interruptions. This is a marvellous opportunity to reflect on your life or to read some inspirational books. You may also want to confide some of your secrets to other people, in which case you should choose your confidants carefully. Try to avoid anyone who might betray your trust. Insightful colours are lemon and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 33 and 29.
 
You embark on a very chatty phase from today, and you'll really enjoy hearing the sound of your own voice during the next three weeks. That's exactly the way it should be right now, but do make sure you don't hog the conversation all the time because that will end up making you rather unpopular. Even if you have something important to say, other people may feel exactly the same and they'll resent it if they can't get a word in edgeways. Ideal colours are jade and peach. Lucky numbers are 28 and 56.
 
The next three weeks are the ideal opportunity for you to stretch your brain and give it a good work-out. You can do this in many different ways, but whatever you try you'll notice that you're far more inquisitive than usual and will want to find out facts for yourself. This might mean surfing the web to track down some information, getting lost in a fascinating book that expands your knowledge, or learning something new and compelling. Outrageous colours are gunmetal grey and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 33 and 59.
 
Keep your head down because it's one of those days when it's likely to get bitten off by anyone who's in a bad mood. Unfortunately, you're feeling equally grumpy and ratty, so you'll want to take out your irascibility on others, and it will continue like this in a vicious circle unless you do something to stop it. So, restrict your anger to those who deserve it, and even then try to get your feelings out into the open without turning the entire episode into a two-part soap opera. Beneficial colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 4 and 64.
 
Life has been enjoyable and easy-going for the past few days, so maybe it's hardly surprising that you hit a few snags this Wednesday. It seems that a loved one is trying to boss you about or act as though they own you, or there could be a clash about a forthcoming social event. Tempers are frayed and feelings are running high, but try not to say or do anything that you'll regret when you've simmered down. Advantageous colours are turquoise and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 33 and 63.
 
Your thoughts turn to personal matters from today, and you' be preoccupied by them for the next three weeks. For instance, at times it will be difficult to wrench your thoughts away from your own life in order to concentrate on what others are telling you, and you may go through phases in which you aren't really interested in things that don't concern you directly. Well, that may be how you feel but, unless you want to alienate everyone, you'll have to pretend that you're fascinated by what they're saying. Favourable colours are mango and white. Lucky numbers are 12 and 66.
 
The past few days have been delightfully easy-going and harmonious, so it's a bit of a shock when tempers flare today. It seems that someone is being far too bossy for another one's liking, with predictably combustible results. If you need to clear the air with someone, do it now but don't let things get out of hand so you end up saying things you'll regret when you've calmed down again. Fortunate colours are magenta and ivory. Lucky numbers are 18 and 21.
 
You can love someone to bits, but if you can't communicate with them your relationship will always be an uphill struggle. Well, the next couple of weeks are the ideal opportunity for you to work hard at improving your communications with some of the people in your life. For instance, if you and your other half never seem to find time for a proper discussion, work out how you can change that and start talking to each other again. Beneficial colours are taupe and navy. Lucky numbers are 2 and 63.
 
You crave some stimulating company this Tuesday, and the more wacky and unusual it is, the better. Besides, being with people who are that little bit different will bring out some new facets of your own personality, which will be good fun and really interesting. So don't be afraid to break out in new directions now, and maybe to try something that you've always wanted to do but have never dared to put into action before. Now's your chance! Inspirational colours are gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 1 and 37.
 
If there was scarcely a whiff of any Valentine's Day romance yesterday, you more than make up for it now because you're in such a soppy mood. It's perfect for getting together with that very special someone and pretending that the rest of the world has vanished. Maybe you could organize a special dinner or buy your beloved a thoughtful gift while you're in this escapist mood. After all, harsh reality will intrude all too soon, so you may as well enjoy this romantic interlude while it lasts. Ideal colours are cream and cherry red. Lucky numbers are 38 and 39.
 
You're in a very forgiving and compassionate mood, which is marvellous if you're hoping for peace to break out between you and a certain someone. Right now, you're ready to forgive and forget. However, don't be so tender-hearted that you allow yourself to be taken for a ride or you manage to overlook some rather important facts. In other words, be kind but keep your wits about you. Favourable colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 4 and 40.
 
You're wrapped up in your emotions today, making you highly sensitive to the people around you. Try to keep clear of anyone who's usually abrasive or aggressive, because they'll make you shrivel up inside. If you're all starry-eyed about someone at the moment, you'll feel even more dazzled by them today and will indulge in some wonderful daydreams about them. That's great, but don't confuse your dreams with reality, no matter how much you wish something would come true. Emotional colours are gold and cream. Lucky numbers are 25 and 38.
 
A strong yearning for perfection and impossible ideals sweeps over you today, and you'll feel quite dissatisfied with anything or anyone that doesn't come up to your high standards. You might as well accept that you're being completely idealistic and that messy real life very rarely matches your dreams. If you really need to escape, why not watch a romantic film or read a fascinating book. Advantageous colours are primrose yellow and dark green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 41.
 
A loved one needs to show that they're a person in their own right today, rather than an anonymous member of the family. This means that they're looking for ways of exercising their own individuality, whether that means wearing weird clothes, buying something that you find objectionable or spouting what you privately consider to be a load of rubbish. Don't clip their wings because that will simply encourage them to do something even more daring or outrageous in the future. Fortunate colours are sable and silver. Lucky numbers are 8 and 28.
 
A certain person is being subtly subversive today. If you're at work, this may be someone who's pretending to do things by the book but who's really trying to break some rules. They don't mean any harm by it and you'll find it amusing, but you should be careful if you try to copy them. You don't want to land in trouble or make yourself unpopular with your boss. Opportunistic colours are turquoise and mango. Lucky numbers are 17 and 5.
 
It's important for you to be yourself today, rather than to be an unhappy version of what someone else expects from you. This might mean putting on the clothes that you feel like wearing instead of the outfit that you-know-who likes to see you in, or actually daring to say what you really think in a discussion rather than to choose your words carefully in order to cause minimum offence. Fortunate colours are spring green and aqua. Lucky numbers are 36 and 26.
 
You need to prove yourself today, especially if it involves demonstrating that you're a person in your own right, with your own idiosyncrasies and unusual habits. The last thing you want right now is to be labelled neatly and put in a pigeon-hole, and if anyone looks as though that's what they're trying to do you'll find ways of reminding them that you're much more of an individual than that. Dynamic colours are fuchsia and silver. Lucky numbers are 5 and 56.
 
What's going on here? You aren't viewing the world with your customary commonsense, and instead you're wearing a pair of rose coloured glasses. Try not to let this idealistic attitude mislead you, especially when dealing with officialdom, your goals or your current job. For instance, you shouldn't kid yourself about anything important, or blithely ignore a looming deadline. Beneficial colours are navy and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 37 and 30.
 
If yesterday was a bit of a disappointment in the romance stakes you can certainly make up for it today. In fact, you're at your most starry eyed and bewitched, and you're also in the mood for some delicious escapism courtesy of you-know-who. If you're at work you won't be in the mood to do much except gaze into space or keep watching the clock until it's going-home time. Better not let the boss catch you dreaming! Romantic colours are moonlight blue and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 21 and 57.
 
If yesterday turned out to be slightly cerebral, you get the chance to make up for it with lots of romance today. It's the perfect opportunity to cuddle up with the one you love and whisper sweet nothings into their ear. If you're still at the stage of gazing at a certain person from afar because you haven't yet got together with them, you'll feel even more yearning for them than usual today. If you see or talk to them, you'll read all sorts of meaning into what happens between you, but bear in mind that this may be more to do with wishful thinking than reality. Auspicious colours are chocolate and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 3 and 10.
 
Home and family matters keep you fully occupied and provide plenty for you to think about. You might have a long chat with a relative, or maybe it's more a case of them talking at you non-stop while you try (and fail) to get a word in edgeways. If you're suddenly seized with the urge to talk until you're blue in the face, try to remember that your audience will appreciate being given the chance to utter the odd word every now and then. Don't make it a monologue! Auspicious colours are aqua and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 29 and 14.
 
You're terrific company at the moment and this Valentine's Day is no exception. Being so popular is doing wonders for your ego and you'll blossom whenever you're under the spotlight. You're also in a very chatty frame of mind and will happily ramble on for hours, but try to let other people get a word in edgeways every now and then. Auspicious colours are mauve and dark tan. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
 
There are lots of secrets in the air today, so keep your ears open if you want to hear something. Mind you, if you're hoping to keep something a secret yourself, the last thing you should do right now is tell anyone about it. Even if they promise that their lips are sealed on the subject, there's a strong chance that somehow they'll manage to reveal the whole thing. This may happen accidentally rather than deliberately, but even so your secret will be out in the open. Favourable colours are pale pink and ivory. Lucky numbers are 10 and 50.
 
You're in such a chatty mood this Monday that it will be a miracle if you can do anything but talk! You've got so much to say! As a result, a quick chat with someone will turn into a long conversation and a phone call could work out a lot more expensive than you bargained for. Although you'll enjoy nattering away about whatever pops into your head, you should make sure you aren't stopping someone from talking about something that they consider to be much more important. Inspirational colours are platinum and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 8 and 15.
 
There isn't as much romance around as you'd like this Monday, which is a shame given the date. It seems that instead of being caught up in sweet nothings, you've got your hands full with work-related topics. You may also have to spend more time than you'd like listening to a colleague who doesn't know when to shut up. Break it to them gently that you've got other things to do besides listening to them. Passionate colours are burgundy and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 24 and 10.
 
Right on cue for Valentine's Day, the planets have arranged a marvellous day for talking about your feelings. It's also good for simply having a long chat with your other half, so you can both catch up on the gossip or talk about whatever concerns you at the moment. However, make sure that you listen as well as talk, and hope that your partner feels the same, otherwise what should have been a conversation will be more like a monologue. And where's the romance in that? Favourable colours are ivory and salmon. Lucky numbers are 1 and 41.
 
It may be Valentine's Day but you've got to keep your mind on professional and other work-related matters. You can relax and be romantic later on, but first you've got to make a stunning impression on a certain person. You'll do well in any sort of meeting or interview, provided you don't let your tongue run away with you. Let the other person have their say, too! Steady colours are charcoal and almond. Lucky numbers are 2 and 6.
 
You're in a romantic frame of mind this Valentine's Day, so if you haven't yet got you-know-who a card it's not too late. You're in the mood to express yourself, so you could even be inspired to write your beloved a poem or love letter, rather than sign their card with a question mark. Why be cryptic when you're feeling so eloquent? If you're without a special person in your life at the moment you'll enjoy watching a romantic film or reading a love story. Auspicious colours are golden honey and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 35 and 49.
 
Will it be a happy Valentine's Day? It certainly looks that way, whether you receive a lovely card in the post or a romantic phone call. But don't make it all one-way traffic - you must reciprocate! Once that's out of the way, you'll be happiest when you're nattering away to all and sundry about whatever happens to pop into your head. In fact, it will be hard for you to shut up, but try not to dominate the conversation if other people have something more important to talk about. Emotional colours are ginger and bright red. Lucky numbers are 11 and 77.
 
It's Valentine's Day and you're in a very chatty mood. You aren't feeling particularly romantic, Aries, so you may have to force yourself to be more loving than you feel. Still, your mind is working well and you'll enjoy thinking up some plans for the future. If you start talking to a friend, it will be difficult to stop and do anything else. Expressive colours are jade and apricot. Lucky numbers are 8 and 10.
 
Hooray! It's Valentine's Day and you're feeling pretty upbeat about your chances of getting some romantic cards and presents. Of course, it's always nice to give as well as to receive, so here's hoping that you've brought a blush to someone's cheek this Monday! This is the perfect day to analyse your feelings about someone special, but dare you tell them how you feel? Receptive colours are apricot and lilac. Lucky numbers are 36 and 28.
 
If you love someone, say so this Valentine's Day. It's the perfect opportunity to speak from the heart and talk about what really matters to you, so don't be afraid of opening up. The only snag comes if you start talking and don't know when to stop, because that won't go down very well with the other person. So make sure they get the chance to say what they think, too. Ideal colours are pineapple and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 11 and 59.
 
No matter what else you've got lined up, try to set aside some time in which you can completely relax and do something you always enjoy. You might want to curl up with the papers, watch a favourite film or go for a walk with a friend. Creative activities are also ideal for you now as they'll give your imagination a chance to blossom. Beautiful colours are apple green and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 7 and 9.
 
Yesterday you were getting to grips with physical problems and today you need to do the same with mental difficulties. This might mean having a serious chat with a loved one and discussing something that's bothering them at the moment, or writing that letter you've been putting off because you didn't know what to say. Your brain is sharp and well-ordered this Sunday, so put it to good use while it's working in your favour. Fortuitous colours are persimmon and lemon. Lucky numbers are 4 and 21.
 
It's time to ask a few questions. Maybe you want to clear up a minor domestic mystery, or you're looking for much bigger answers than that. Either way, this is an ideal day for taking part in a deep discussion or for doing a little research on your own. However, you must play by the rules — don't stick your nose into things that don't concern you and don't make others feel uncomfortable. Inspirational colours are indigo and brass. Lucky numbers are 4 and 54.
 
It's delightfully easy to get on well with other people today, especially if they're older or more important than you. Somehow you'll manage to smooth any ruffled feathers and put these people at their ease. This is good news if you'll be seeing someone who isn't always sweetness and light, as they should be easier to manage than usual. What a relief! Advantageous colours are sable and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 28 and 46.
 
This is a fabulous day for getting along well with everyone you meet, whether you know them inside out or you're talking to a complete stranger in the supermarket. So what's the secret of your success? Well, you're ready to take people as you find them, without expecting them to be something they're not, and this easy-going attitude will soon win you lots of fans. If only every day were like this, how simple life would be! Beneficial colours are champagne and lime. Lucky numbers are 12 and 21.
 
Once again you're concerned about your finances, so have a look around your home to see what improvements you could make if you had the cash. Maybe you should make a list of the things that need to be done immediately and those that will require your attention in the coming months. If you're shopping this Sunday you'll enjoy buying items that add to your domestic comfort or safety. Fortunate colours are turquoise and bright purple. Lucky numbers are 19 and 33.
 
This is another great day for talking to other people about things that are important to you. Today, however, you're interested in discussing topics with a spiritual, philosophical or religious theme. The more open-minded you are, the more you'll learn now from one another, so don't imagine that you've got all the answers or automatically assume that the other person is talking rubbish because you don't agree with them. Inspirational colours are lemon and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 20.
 
Enjoy your social life whenever you get the chance. You're feeling chatty and exuberant, and you'll also get a big kick out of making people laugh. If you can spare the time you'll enjoy immersing yourself in a favourite hobby that allows you to forget about any worries that may be currently bugging you. Beneficial colours are burgundy and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 17.
 
You're eager to ferret out facts and important pieces of information today, and you won't be happy until you've found out exactly what's going on. This shouldn't be too difficult because other people are being surprisingly forthcoming right now, but even so you should know where to draw the line and not pry into things that don't concern you. In your spare time, you'll enjoy getting engrossed in puzzles, quizzes and other brainteasers. Fortunate colours are mahogany and topaz. Lucky numbers are 25 and 32.
 
Once again you're feeling businesslike and organized, so don't let it go to waste. You'll soon feel rather agitated and restless if you're lazing around, so work off that nervous energy by doing some gardening or dusting, or by having a blitz on all those cupboards that you daren't open for fear of what might fall out of them. Get a bin bag, open that cupboard, and start chucking out all those things you know you'll never use again. And then give the decent items to charity. Think how virtuous you'll feel when you've finished! Fortunate colours are russet and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 15 and 13.
 
A friend needs to talk to you today because there's something they want to discuss with someone they can trust. Your conversation will become hard-hitting and searching, because neither of you will want to skim over the surface. Instead, you're ready to talk about things as they really are, and to see things in their true perspective. Ideal colours are aubergine and ivory. Lucky numbers are 4 and 34.
 
Ideally, you should spend today with a few of your special people, not surrounded by strangers or acquaintances. It's a day when you value your privacy and would rather be left alone than stuck with someone you don't like. You'll appreciate having some time to yourself, too, in which you can please yourself and indulge in a favourite activity, such as reading a book or playing with the cat. Ideal colours are ginger and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 40 and 70.
 
Your practical streak is pronounced at the moment, and it's in the ascendant once again today. This time, it's encouraging you to check that everything in your life is running smoothly. Pay particular attention to your finances and to anything connected with your work. For instance, if your bank is misbehaving itself, sort out the problem now before it gets any worse. Uplifting colours are milk coffee and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 11 and 21.
 
Find the time today to tidy up any loose ends in your life, such as paying bills or replying to official letters. It will do you good to sort such things out, especially if you have a tendency to worry about them and wish they'd go away. At some point, you should have a think about your career and long-term goals, and decide whether you need to take any action over them in the next few days. Favourable colours are violet and caramel. Lucky numbers are 3 and 66.
 
Have a think about your plans for the future. How are they progressing and are you happy with them? If you suspect that they aren't going as well as they might, start doing something about it. Even if your ideas are still in the early stages, they may benefit from some tweaking and fine-tuning. A few changes now could save you a lot of time and trouble in the future. Fortunate colours are bright purple and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 15.
 
If you've been thinking over yesterday's events and have realized that you need to discuss something important with you-know-who, this is a very good day to start talking. You're keen to get to grips with what's going on, yet without making heavy weather of it or assigning blame to the other person. Look on it as a fact-finding mission in which you're both free to say what you think. The conversation will probably be a lot easier than you might have imagined. Ideal colours are magenta and mauve. Lucky numbers are 23 and 37.
 
You're at your most efficient, especially if you decide to do some trouble-shooting. Try out gadgets, electronics and other pieces of technological wizardry to make sure they're working properly, and either repair them or chuck them out if they've started to go on the blink. Have a think about your health, too, and settle on a plan to make yourself feel or look better. Harmonious colours are mandarin and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 8 and 28.
 
You're in a practical frame of mind today, ready to sort out any difficulties with as small amount of fuss as possible. This will be highly rewarding because you'll feel very pleased with your efforts, and so will everyone else. It's also a super day for putting the finishing touches to an artistic or creative project that is currently keeping you busy. You'll be pleased to be able to tidy up the loose ends because then you can start thinking about what your next project will be. Fortunate colours are mustard yellow and cherry blossom. Lucky numbers are 5 and 51.
 
You're in a very analytical mood today, so turn your attention to your relationships. Think about which ones are doing well, which ones need some tender loving care and which ones, if any, should be allowed to quietly fade into the background. You also need to consider how you can improve the atmosphere between you and certain people, and then take action. Expressive colours are apricot and bondi blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
 
Thankfully the atmosphere has simmered down again after yesterday's brief skirmishes, and you can get back to the important business of rearranging your finances and making some essential decisions. Try to find the time to go through your bank and credit card statements so you know exactly how much you've spent recently and you can also check that there aren't any rogue entries that shouldn't be there. If you do spot a problem, sort it out as soon as possible. Auspicious colours are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 63.
 
This is the ideal day to tidy up any situations, relationships or areas in your life that have become messy or disordered. That might mean sorting out the problems that have sprung up between you and you- know-who, deleting any unnecessary files on your computer or giving your home a good clean. You should also check that gadgets and machines are working properly. Ambitious colours are passionfruit and tartan. Lucky numbers are 15 and 41.
 
This is the perfect day for fixing things that have gone wrong, whether they're situations, relationships or appliances. Doing a little trouble-shooting will give you lots of satisfaction, especially if you're saving time by taking action now rather than waiting for things to get really dire before you do anything about them. It's also a good opportunity to tidy up loose papers, bills and other communications, and preferably to do something constructive with them rather than just shove them in a drawer. Harmonious colours are terracotta and dark green. Lucky numbers are 7 and 10.
 
This is a great day for getting things done and sorting out problems, so try to get to grips with as many difficulties as possible while you're in the mood. This goes for your relationships as well as more mundane matters, so if a loved one is being awkward you should try to get to the bottom of what's going on. Are they unhappy about something? Have you done something to upset them? If in doubt, ask! Practical colours are blue and blossom. Lucky numbers are 25 and 14.
 
Take a stroll around your home or garden today, preferably in the company of a pen and notebook, and look for things that need to be repaired or renovated. Don't wait for something to completely fall apart before taking action. While you're about it, a little cleaning or tidying indoors won't go amiss, especially if everything looks as though a bomb has hit it. Sorting things out will be good therapy. Favourable colours are dark brown and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 42.
 
If you feel like spending some money this Friday, consider investing in your health. You might splash out on some organic food, stock up on vitamins and minerals, or treat yourself to a massage or complementary therapy. None of this has to cost a fortune, and certainly right now you aren't keen on overspending or throwing your money away. You're looking for value for money, and if you're sensible you'll get it. Beneficial colours are ultramarine and violet. Lucky numbers are 38 and 7.
 
Someone is very rattled this Friday, making it hard to talk to them for long without a blow up or starting a row. Rather than spend your time deflecting the flak, which is bound to be an unsuccessful manoeuvre in the long run, it would be far better for everyone concerned to ask this person what's bugging them and then to listen to their answer. That's right, to listen, and not to take umbrage if it seems that you're part of their problem. Stabilising colours are charcoal and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 12 and 8.
 
A certain person seems to have erected a defensive forcefield around themselves, making it almost impossible to get close. They're being so touchy and huffy! Although it's tempting to wash your hands of them for the time being, it would be far better to gently ask them what's wrong and to give them the chance to get a few things off their chest. Doing this could transform the atmosphere between you. Favourable colours are fawn and lime. Lucky numbers are 5 and 19.
 
Get out that helmet because you're going to need it when dealing with a certain member of the family. This person is feeling edgy, defensive and huffy, and it won't be long before they're up on their high horse about something. It's probably wise to forget about trying to pacify them because, as you'll soon discover, they're itching to start a row and even offering them a cup of tea could turn out to be all the provocation they need. Great colours are ivory and russet. Lucky numbers are 20 and 48.
 
A certain person is being very demanding and controlling and it looks as though they want to wrap you round their little finger. You won't want to let this happen, but standing up to this person could be quite difficult because it will lead to a nasty atmosphere in which they try to make you feel as guilty as possible. Don't fall for this trick! Steady colours are aubergine and sepia. Lucky numbers are 6 and 9.
 
You know exactly what you want to achieve and exactly how you're going to do it, but you need to take a more gentle approach. Even though you're eager to make things happen, you'll only rub people up the wrong way if you try to bully them into doing what you say or agreeing with you. Take a deep breath, relax, and don't be in such a tearing hurry. Beneficial colours are amber and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 1 and 7.
 
A certain someone wants to call the shots today and they won't like it if they can't get their own way. Let's hope that you aren't the one who wants to be boss because, if so, it will make you rather unpopular. If you're dealing with a loved one who's behaving like this, you'll resent it if they have the final word and could therefore get involved in a tiring battle of wills. Come on, Virgo, is it really worth the hassle? Vibrant colours are crimson and ash. Lucky numbers are 21 and 49.
 
A little knowledge is a valuable thing today. You're in the mood to learn something important, and you'll soak up information like a sponge given half the chance. You might even be inspired to enrol in an evening class or some other sort of course, purely for the joy of giving your brain some exercise. If you're fed up with your current job you could even start to think about retraining for something more rewarding. Auspicious colours are coffee and aqua. Lucky numbers are 16 and 7.
 
You'll be at your most effective today if you can do some advance preparation. For instance, if you're visiting various shops it would be a good idea to plan a route that means you don't have to double-back on yourself and waste time. If you're putting pen to paper, organize your thoughts first so you know exactly what you want to say and how you're going to say it. Fortunate colours are sage and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 22 and 14.
 
The more effort you put into a creative venture, the better it will go today. Ideally, you should work at a slow and steady pace rather than at breakneck speed, because you'll take pride in doing things to the best of your ability even if you're slowed up in the process. A conversation with a child will go well, especially if you're encouraging them to confide in you, and you'll be able to give them guidance without sounding dictatorial or old-fashioned. Beneficial colours are copper and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 24 and 4.
 
You and a loved one are on a collision course today because you're both convinced that you're right and the other one is wrong. This is especially likely when it comes to such vexed questions as sex, love and money. If you keep clashing with each other, it's a sign that you need to sort out some unresolved problems between you, especially if they feel so laden with significance or emotion that you dare not mention them. Auspicious colours are claret and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
 
You're in a tearing hurry this Friday and any delays or setbacks will soon have you foaming at the mouth. This will be very wearing if you're at the sharp end, because you'll be expected to jump through hoops as though you're a performing seal on speed. If you're the one who's calling the shots, try to have some compassion for the poor souls who are under your thumb. They're only human, you know! Ideal colours are hazelnut and lilac. Lucky numbers are 4 and 26.
 
This is a super day for continuing your current plans to get ahead and make a name for yourself. You've got some great ideas buzzing around inside your head right now, so don't let them go to waste. You'll excel when taking part in a discussion or business meeting, thanks to your ability to think things through and make some enlightened comments. Fabulous colours are purple and white. Lucky numbers are 21 and 76.
 
You're feeling upbeat and positive today, and determined to look on the bright side whenever possible. This shouldn't be difficult as good fortune is never far from your side this Thursday, and you could even hear some wonderful news connected with an official financial matter or a close relationship. But watch out if you're spending money because you're in the mood to ignore hefty price tags and buy things on the spur of the moment. Expansive colours are banana and parchment. Lucky numbers are 2 and 47.
 
Feeling lucky? It's certainly the day for luck, perhaps by entering a competition or buying a raffle ticket. However, although it's good to feel confident you don't want to become cocky and too sure of yourself, because that will lead to disappointment when things fail to turn out in the way you would have liked. You should also avoid over- committing yourself or taking on more than you can handle. Auspicious colours are teal blue and bronze. Lucky numbers are 23 and 54.
 
Put on your thinking cap this Thursday because you'll come up with some marvellous ideas about how to improve your reputation, boost your career or make some money. However, try your hardest to keep your feet on the ground and not get so carried away with enthusiasm that you overestimate your abilities or believe that you can't put a foot wrong. So exercise some moderation without completely restricting all your options. Fortunate colours are kiwifruit and deep purple. Lucky numbers are 1 and 19.
 
Someone is full of inventive ideas this Thursday, so listen carefully. Some of what they say may have more to do with wishful thinking than reality, and there could also be plenty of exaggeration that needs to be discounted, but even so there will be some gems that deserve your attention. If you're currently planning a long journey, check that all the arrangements are firmly in place. Opportune colours are pale green and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 5 and 56.
 
This is the perfect day for thinking about ways to improve your domestic arrangements. Given half a chance, you'll come up with some great ideas, and you won't be afraid to set yourself a challenge at the same time. But be wary of over-committing yourself to anything in the heat of the moment, because reality could prove much tougher than you imagine. Liberating colours are ebony and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 40 and 58.
 
Things are going really well for you at the moment and you get another taste of success today. You might hear some really great news that has you dancing around the kitchen, or have a wonderful time with someone who always makes you laugh. Try to stay positive and cheerful because that will rub off on everyone around you and it will also attract some good fortune in your direction. Uplifting colours are velvet black and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 30 and 78.
 
You're raring to go this Thursday, even when faced with lots of work. Actually, you'll take pride in getting as much done as possible, which is great provided that you don't get into a competition with yourself and end up cutting corners in order to finish things off quickly. Right now, it's far better to do things properly than to rush through them and have to do them again later on. So be methodical and take your time! Beneficial colours are copper and banana. Lucky numbers are 27 and 11.
 
Two heads are definitely better than one today, so don't be shy about sharing your ideas with some kindred spirits. It's great for working as part of a team because you'll enjoy bouncing your ideas off each other, but bear in mind that some of your thoughts may be too ambitious to ever see the light of day. If you're telling someone a story, try to stick to the facts and resist the temptation to embroider and exaggerate everything in order to give it greater impact. Expansive colours are sunflower yellow and mist grey. Lucky numbers are 28 and 43.
 
This is a great day for thinking of ways to make your home more comfortable and cosy. This won't be a chore for a home-loving Cancerian like you, but you may have problems stopping yourself spending too much money. It's one of those days when it's easy to get carried away by enthusiasm and to commit yourself to things that you can't afford, so try to be sensible even if that does feel like the most boring option imaginable. Stable colours are magenta and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 16 and 30.
 
You've got some big ideas and you're really excited about them, but the question is whether they're feasible or more like pie in the sky. It's no good telling you to keep your feet on the ground because that won't appeal in the slightest. Instead, you can't help getting carried away by enthusiasm and by the power of your own vivid imagination. So dream on today and assess your ideas tomorrow when you're more level- headed. Lively colours are raspberry and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 22 and 45.
 
Friends and partners have some great ideas for you today, so pin back your ears and listen. Let them have their say before you pitch in, especially if you're going to raise some objections to their suggestions. Wait until you've heard the whole story before reaching a decision, because you may suddenly decide that they're right and you'd be foolish to ignore what they're telling you. Dazzling colours are fuchsia and viridian. Lucky numbers are 11 and 68.
 
It's a great day for getting together with friends, especially if you're working together on plans for the future. You'll egg each other on, particularly if one of you starts to flag, and have a lot of fun in the process. If you're drawn into an intellectual debate, don't worry because you'll be able to say what you think and argue your case. Actually, you'll be rather impressed with the way you present your arguments! Empowering colours are silver and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 64.
 
Family life has more than its fair share of ups and downs today, but don't worry because you'll weather the storms. The trick is not to allow yourself to get too emotionally involved, especially if you suspect that someone is trying to wind you up by behaving badly or altering all your plans at the last minute. The more disruptions you face today, the more you need to think about livening up your home life or getting yourself out of that rut you've tumbled into. Auspicious colours are bronze and lime. Lucky numbers are 21 and 12.
 
You'll enjoy getting involved in day-to-day activities today, such as going shopping, taking the dog for a walk or talking to your neighbours. What's more, you'll put a lot of energy into whatever you do, so it's almost bound to work out well. This is a particularly good day for taking part in a discussion or negotiation because you'll be able to put across your point of view with conviction but without ramming your ideas down other people's throats. Fortuitous colours are silvery green and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 6.
 
Someone gives you a much-needed boost this Wednesday. They might encourage you to do something you really want to try, or they could give you a pat on the back about something you've already done. Either way, you'll feel more positive and cheerful for having seen this person. If you're trying to pluck up the courage to ask someone out, this is a great day to do it. It should go much better than you'd feared. Ideal colours are mauve and navy. Lucky numbers are 34 and 50.
 
Other people are full of encouragement today, so allow them to fire your enthusiasm. Someone might persuade you to arrange a forthcoming trip or holiday, or they could give the thumbs-up to your plan to study something new. You could also be intrigued and excited when you meet someone who comes from a different walk of life or another country, and who really gets your pulses racing. Prosperous colours are hazelnut and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 12 and 31.
 
Be careful if you're dealing with people in authority or power today because things won't always go according to plan. You'll also struggle to concentrate on anything for long, so ideally you should introduce plenty of variety into your day so you can chop and change from one task to the next as the fancy takes you. However, this classic Gemini behaviour may puzzle onlookers, so be prepared for some odd comments. Favourable colours are blackberry and claret. Lucky numbers are 23 and 40.
 
There's no knowing how things will go today, especially when it comes to the behaviour of some of your loved ones. A certain person might behave in ways you aren't prepared for, especially if they're trying to shock everyone in the process. You could also discover that you've got a surprise fan or you might receive a compliment that you weren't expecting. Inspirational colours are bright red and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 7 and 56.
 
If you've been confused by a friend's behaviour recently, this is your chance to get to the bottom of it. You won't have to give them the third degree, either, because they'll probably be happy to talk about what's been happening to them. In fact, today is good for increasing your understanding of anyone in your life, simply by talking to them and doing your best to see things from their point of view. Vibrant colours are grapefruit and sienna. Lucky numbers are 19 and 20.
 
Have a think about your usual daily routine today and then decide how you can liven it up a little. If you don't do anything yourself, you can fully expect fate to step in and do it for you. For instance, your plans could go haywire through no fault of your own, or machinery might break down without any warning. Try to take everything in your stride and go with the flow. Stabilising colours are iridescent green and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 17 and 70.
 
A friend has some good ideas and they'll try to persuade you to go along with them. Don't refuse without thinking things through carefully and listening to what they've got to say, because you may decide that their plans sound pretty good after all. It's also a great day for arranging a forthcoming journey or holiday. Adventurous colours are blackberry and salmon. Lucky numbers are 32 and 58.
 
You're in an industrious mood but you'll be happiest if you can work to your own schedule by yourself. That's because you're feeling rather private and self-contained this Wednesday, and you don't want to have too many people around you if you can possibly avoid it. You might also confide in someone you trust, in which case you'll get some valuable advice. Diplomatic colours are primrose and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 26 and 62.
 
It's a great day for making amends in a relationship, perhaps by apologizing for something you said recently or by getting in touch with someone you haven't seen for a while. It's a case of least said, soonest mended, so don't make a big song and dance out of the situation. Instead, say what you have to and then work hard at winning back the other person's affection. Beneficial colours are coffee and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 7 and 69.
 
You need to exercise some caution when listening to colleagues and medical people today because you could easily misunderstand what they tell you. For instance, you might talk to a workmate and then draw the wrong conclusions from what they've said, or if you're attending a medical appointment you might read the worst possible meaning into what a doctor tells you. Do your best to stick to the facts and stop your imagination running riot. Auspicious colours are opalescence and fawn. Lucky numbers are 9 and 55.
 
Today's New Moon will have a big impact on your life during the next couple of weeks.

And if you can spare the time from all that, you'll also enjoy experimenting with some new hobbies or pastimes. Auspicious colours are auburn and ivory. Lucky numbers are 20 and 36.
 
There's a major planetary emphasis on your relationships this Tuesday, with the New Moon adding fuel to the fire. The coming fortnight will be a time for teamwork and shared objectives, rather than for going it alone.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 73.

Ideal colours are grapefruit and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 25 and 42.
 
Today's New Moon is the start of the Chinese New Year, and it's also the beginning of a two-week phase in which you'll be even more sociable than usual.

This is a lovely, easy-going and happy day, so make the most of it. You're feeling relaxed and affectionate, and you'll be happiest if you can spend time with some of the special people in your life. If you're thinking of buying something for your home or garden, this is a great day to track it down in the shops, provided that you don't spend more than you can afford. Affectionate colours are green and honey. Lucky numbers are 11 and 28.
 
You're ready for some fun today, so try to postpone any boring or difficult tasks until you're more in the mood for them. Right now, you're keen to let your hair down and enjoy yourself. Friends will be attracted to your outgoing personality, and you might also make some new chums because you're being so gregarious. You may be asked to take a leading role if you're involved in any form of group activity, so be prepared. Delightful colours are pineapple and colour. Lucky numbers are 32 and 57.
 
You're buoyed up by optimism today, and are convinced that everything will turn out well even if you aren't having much luck at the moment. Taking such a positive view will help you to weather any storms that are currently raging in your life, and remind you that better times are just around the corner. A heartfelt exchange with a special person is also guaranteed to put a great big smile on your face. Bright colours are spearmint and ebony. Lucky numbers are 3 and 71.
 
This is one of the highlights of your month, so try to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible. You're in a great mood and it will help to spend time with some of your favourite people. It's also a super day for making a good impression on someone you're meeting for the first time, and you'll really hit it off with each other. If you can spare the time you'll enjoy going on a short journey, preferably with someone nice to keep you company. Fortuitous colours are white and pink. Lucky numbers are 24 and 46.
 
It's a fantastic day so try to cram in as many enjoyable activities as possible. Yes, it's Monday but that doesn't mean you can't have some fun. If your usual Monday consists of hard work followed by a well-earned collapse in front of the television, maybe you could go out on the town instead or treat yourself to a take-away if you long to stay at home. But whatever you do, enjoy yourself in the process. Opportunistic colours are navy and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 11 and 59.
 
What a marvellous day! You've got a real spring in your step and you're feeling fantastic. It's one of those encouraging days when a positive attitude gets positive results, so you won't have anything to complain about. Keep your eyes peeled for a fabulous opportunity that comes your way, especially if it arrives courtesy of a loved one or someone who lives abroad. Advantageous colours are ebony and avocado. Lucky numbers are 9 and 19.
 
If you're planning on making some changes to your job or your career, this is a great day to get started. Your prospects for success are looking very favourable, helped by the goodwill of certain people and also by your current ambition and determination to succeed. Don't be afraid to push yourself further than usual, provided you don't lose all sight of what's feasible. Sunny colours are ginger and apricot. Lucky numbers are 15 and 52.
 
This is a wonderfully optimistic day and you're full of good thoughts, which is a great way to attract positive events and people. Right now, you're particularly concerned with increasing your luck, perhaps by entering a competition or lottery, and also with the prospect of travel to far-off places. If you suspect that you're stuck in a rut at the moment, this is a marvellous opportunity to start climbing out of it. Favourable colours are raspberry and avocado. Lucky numbers are 25 and 49.
 
Enjoy today's sunny temper while it lasts! You're in a terrific mood and you want to share it with as many people as possible. Besides, it wouldn't be fair to deprive anyone of your company when you're as jolly and easy-going as this. Get together with some friends or strike up a conversation with someone you've always wanted to know better. You never know what might come of it! Prosperous colours are caramel and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 4 and 13.
 
Take comfort from the people and places that are most familiar to you today. You aren't in the mood to go exploring, or to do anything radically different. Instead, you'll prefer to curl up at home with some of the special people in your life, or to visit somewhere you know like the back of your hand. You could have a lucky break if you're house-hunting at the moment. Practical colours are smoky quartz and violet. Lucky numbers are 19 and 15.
 
You'll want to put a lot of energy into your finances and other essential priorities during the next few weeks, and you'll feel annoyed if you can't do this for some reason. It's an excellent phase for making some investments, provided that you have the money, but you certainly shouldn't try this if you're currently counting every penny. Steady colours are opal and cream. Lucky numbers are 15 and 56.
 
Your libido gets a massive boost from today, and you'll be pretty hot stuff for the next few weeks. This could be very good news if you're already with a partner but if you're currently single and on the prowl it might mean that you confuse lust with love. The weeks ahead will also be great for taking some enjoyable physical exercise and you might even fancy getting involved in a competitive sport and showing everyone what you're capable of. Auspicious colours are russet and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 29 and 13.
 
The next few weeks are the ideal time to focus your energies on home and family life. Maybe this is the spur you need to drape everything in dustsheets and get out the paintbrush, or perhaps you've been thinking about moving house and you now decide that it's time to start looking for your new home. But a word of warning — do your best to remain patient and tolerant of relatives and loved ones, otherwise they'll have ways of getting under your skin. Relaxing colours are aubergine and lilac. Lucky numbers are 1 and 70.
 
Your relationships will take up lots of your time during the next six weeks. You'll want to make them a success and will enjoy putting a lot of energy into them, but that could be where the problems start. You see, if you suspect that a partner isn't putting as much into the relationship as you, you'll soon get irritated or impatient with them, and you won't bother to hide your feelings. However, if you normally put your needs to one side for the sake of keeping the peace, you'll be much keener to ask for what you want between now and mid-March. Powerful colours are copper and teal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 69.
 
You'll be dashing around from pillar to post during the next few weeks, so get set for an incredibly busy time. It will be fun too, luckily, although there will be occasions when you get rather jangled and feel as though you're trying to chase your own tail. It's important to be as physically active as possible during this phase, otherwise all your surplus energy will turn to irritation and impatience, which won't be much fun for you or for the people around you. Beneficial colours are plum and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 7 and 35.
 
There will be a lot going on between now and mid-March, so get ready for a very busy phase. For a start, you'll be motivated to get going on a personal project, whether it's a brand new idea or one that's been on the cards for quite a while now. You'll also enjoy being physically active, and it's certainly a great time to take more exercise, even if it's only doing more walking than usual. In fact, being too sedentary will soon make you feel ratty, so it's a good idea to keep on the move. Ideal colours are fawn and jade. Lucky numbers are 6 and 47.
 
It's going to be a rather odd six weeks from today, because there will be lots of things you'll want to do yet you'll lack the motivation for some reason or other. At times you'll manage to overcome this inertia and make things happen anyway, but on other occasions you may decide to shelve starting some projects until you're more in the mood to do them justice. Powerful colours are charcoal and bright red. Lucky numbers are 16 and 7.
 
During the next few weeks you'll be happy to expend a great deal of energy on pastimes and people that mean a lot to you. You may even become totally dedicated to them. However, it will be a very different story with anything or anyone that fails to grab you in this way, because you won't want to waste your time. Do your best to avoid such all-or-nothing extremes. Propitious colours are hazelnut and copper. Lucky numbers are 2 and 15.
 
You're filled with drive and ambition, and they'll help to propel you forward between now and late March. Start deciding what you're going to do because opportunities like this don't come along very often. Ideally, you should do something that will put you in the public eye, increase your self-esteem or represent a tremendous personal achievement. Auspicious colours are butterscotch and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 5 and 23.
 
It will do you good to channel energy into your hobbies and long-term hopes and wishes during the next few weeks. You might decide to try something that you've always wanted to do but have never got around to, or a friend could rope you into a project that turns out to be really exciting. If you're already involved in some sort of group activity, you could play a more active role in it between now and mid-March. Auspicious colours are butterscotch and dark green. Lucky numbers are 29 and 45.
 
You can expect to be all fired up with enthusiasm between now and mid March, and it will be quite a heady experience at times. If you're usually a rather timid or conservative Taurean, this will be the perfect opportunity to throw caution to the winds and do something unusual or challenging. However, if you're often reckless you should curb your greater excesses now. Great colours are primrose and teal. Lucky numbers are 35 and 62.
 
Get ready to do some hard work during the next few weeks. You'll enjoy the chance of showing others what you can do but you'll soon get very annoyed if you suspect that your efforts aren't being appreciated. Unfortunately, though, that's exactly what might happen, in which case you'll resent feeling sidelined. Ask yourself whether you're working for the satisfaction of doing a good job or whether you're really aiming for glory and prestige. Dynamic colours are kiwifruit and amber. Lucky numbers are 9 and 50.
 
You're in a money-minded mood this Saturday, which is good news if you're going shopping because you'll have a keen eye for a bargain. But no matter what you're doing, you'll place more importance on your priorities in life than normal and will get quite heated on the subject if you're challenged. You're ready to defend such things to the death, but is such vehemence really necessary? Ideal colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 17 and 30.
 
If you want to follow up what you started yesterday, you'll certainly have the energy for it. However, you may have to curb your temper, because getting angry will probably turn out to be self- defeating. Channel these feelings into your determination to get to the bottom of what's wrong. The atmosphere could also be rather tense when dealing with a close friend, so be warned. Delightful colours are black and mango. Lucky numbers are 40 and 23.
 
Going shopping? Don't be surprised if you start buying all sorts of things on the spur of the moment. When you look at them after you've got them home, you may wonder what on earth possessed you to buy some of them. They might not be your usual taste at all, or they could be the sort of two-minute wonders whose ultimate destination is the bin. If you're reading this before you go shopping, try to curb your enthusiasm and save yourself some money in the process. Opportunistic colours are mandarin and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 27 and 7.
 
What a busy day! You're dashing around so much that you're almost a blur, yet you'll have a good time provided that you don't take anything too seriously and you aren't working to a very strict deadline. If you do have one eye on the clock all the time, you'll soon start to feel impatient and hassled at the merest hint of a delay or interruption. Keep busy, but don't run yourself ragged in the process unless you have absolutely no choice. Uplifting colours are tangerine and purple. Lucky numbers are 38 and 52.
 
You're feeling very competitive and active today, and determined to enjoy yourself into the bargain. It's the sort of day when you feel inspired to get out your trainers and improve on your personal best in the gym, or to go jogging with a friend and beat them to the finishing line. You're also in rather a daredevil mood and will relish the chance to do something that's slightly rash or foolhardy. Great, but don't do anything stupid. Harmonious colours are plum and apricot. Lucky numbers are 24 and 7.
 
People are very interesting today as they're being unpredictable. Someone might make a suggestion out of the blue that turns out to be really enjoyable, or you could bump into the last person you were expecting to see but be delighted by the encounter. Alternatively, maybe you should be the one who's creating the surprises by ringing up someone you haven't seen for a while or giving yourself a complete break from your normal Saturday routine. Auspicious colours are crimson and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 10.
 
You're feeling impatient and restless, Aries, making you want to do everything in double-quick time. If you're going travelling you'll be eager to reach your destination and will get rather irritable if you meet any delays. Better take something to keep you amused, just in case, because you really won't enjoy doing nothing. Beneficial colours are strawberry and beige. Lucky numbers are 34 and 36.
 
Relationships will go really well today provided that everyone is feeling as upbeat and go-getting as you. But things will soon come unstuck if you encounter someone who seems to be holding you back or dithering. You want action and energy, and you'll quickly get impatient if people fail to fulfil your expectations. It sounds as though you need to calm down! Fortunate colours are ginger and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 37.
 
Once again you're in a go-getting mood, particularly when it comes to doing things around the house. You might be inspired to have a blitz on the garden or to raid the kitchen cupboards for all those things that have long since passed their use-by date. It's important that you keep busy because otherwise you'll start to feel agitated, restless and ever so slightly irritable. Stable colours are spring green and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 28 and 45.
 
Make the most of today's energy and stamina because they'll help you make plenty of progress. You might even be able to work up the enthusiasm to tackle jobs that you've been postponing through lack of energy. However, if you sit around doing nothing, you'll soon begin to feel agitated and annoyed, which is when the fireworks will start. So keep busy, and then you stand a better chance of getting through the day without blowing your top. Ideal colours are ultramarine and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 18 and 78.
 
You're raring to go today, especially with activities that are designed to put you in the limelight for some reason. For instance, you might get all fired up to write a letter to your local paper or to fill in a job application. There's a lot you want to achieve right now and you'll soon get cross if others fail to do things as quickly as you'd like. You'll want to chivvy them along, but don't do it so harshly that you set everyone against you. Dynamic colours are sparkling gold and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 43.
 
There's a lot you want to get done today and it's best if you can be left to your own devices. That way, you won't be interrupted by anyone who then disturbs your train of thought, and you'll also relish the chance to have some time to yourself. It's also a good day for thinking hard about a career strategy or your next move in a long-term goal. Ideal colours are jet black and lilac. Lucky numbers are 8 and 78.
 
If you tackle the tasks that await you, and get some of those odd jobs out of the way, today will be very satisfying and enjoyable. This may not sound like a recipe for happiness but you'll be delighted by the progress you make, especially if you get to grips with some of those chores that have been hanging fire for ages. You might even be inspired to carry on the good work tomorrow. Healing colours are primrose and magenta. Lucky numbers are 11 and 2.
 
This is a fabulous day for being as sociable as your time and energy will allow. You'll enjoy mixing with people from all ages and walks of life, because you'll be interested in finding out what makes them tick. Why not get chatting to the person standing next to you in the train or the supermarket queue, or ring up some of the people you haven't seen for a while. You might even be inspired to write a few letters. Emotional colours are silver and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 37 and 8.
 
What a wonderful day! You're feeling happy, easy-going and friendly, so don't be surprised if half the world beats a path to your door. How can they resist you when you're like this? This is a great opportunity to make contact with someone you'd like to see, perhaps to ask them out or simply to remind them that you're still alive. Mind you, if you have any romantic motives they'll get a helping hand right now. Favourable colours are burnt orange and avocado. Lucky numbers are 26 and 21.
 
This is the perfect day for concentrating on domestic matters, especially if you're hoping to put things to rights after the past few days. You'll enjoy taking care of your home and family, and perhaps doing some special cooking or producing someone's favourite meal. If you're out shopping you'll be drawn to items that make you feel safe and which have a traditional look or feel. Fortunate colours are dark red and ivory. Lucky numbers are 35 and 36.
 
This is a super day for rolling up your sleeves, whether literally or metaphorically, and getting on with some of those boring but necessary tasks that are waiting for you. They could be anything from checking your bank statement to paying some bills or doing some filing. If you're at work, you'll appreciate a colleague's help and support. Favourable colours are deep cherry and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 17 and 64.
 
Try to devote as much time today as possible to your priorities and values because you'll get an enormous amount of satisfaction from them this Friday. You'll also appreciate having some peace and quiet, away from the rat race, even if you have to snatch odd moments here and there. If you're out shopping you might see the perfect gift for you- know-who and decide to buy it for them as a surprise. Beneficial colours are navy and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 7.
 
Enjoy yourself today, because you're in a very happy mood and as a result things are going well. It's a super day for getting together with some of your favourite people, even if you don't do anything very special. If you've got the time, you'll enjoy playing with some children or releasing your own inner child. It's also a great day for conjuring up a little romance with you-know-who. Prosperous colours are caramel and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 20 and 62.
 
If it's the end of your working week you'll be in the mood to celebrate in some way. Maybe you could go out on the town with some friends, or meet up at someone's house for a meal? If that sounds a bit too energetic, you'll enjoy staying at home and getting immersed in one of your favourite hobbies. If you're involved in a group venture, such as an amateur dramatics society, you could be asked to take the lead in some way. Fortunate colours are toffee and peach. Lucky numbers are 26 and 25.
 
You're still very sensitive, and today it helps you to get along well with the people around you. You may find that you know what someone is going to say before they open their mouth, or that you have a complete understanding of what they're talking about because you've experienced the same thing yourself. Inspirational colours are striped agate and caramel. Lucky numbers are 40 and 48.
 
Try to give yourself a treat at some point today Rams, and loose yourself in a good book. You're in exactly the right mood to read something thought-provoking and interesting, or you might prefer to listen to a tape that sets you thinking. If you're going shopping you'll be drawn to items with a New Age, religious or spiritual slant. Inspirational colours are ochre and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 75.
 
It's surprisingly easy to get on well with people of influence and authority, especially if you want to talk money with them. So if you're chasing up a company about the payment they were supposed to have made to you, you should get on the phone or write a letter today, while things are going your way. There could also be interesting news about a forthcoming pay rise. Advantageous colours are wild honey and burnished bronze. Lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
 
You're feeling very compassionate and tender-hearted today, presenting a much softer side of yourself to the world. As a result, you might find yourself listening to a hard-luck story or feeling sad about someone else's misfortune. But be careful! Although you're usually nobody's fool, right now you're very susceptible to people who might try to take you for a ride or cheat you in some way. Maybe you shouldn't believe everything you hear? Insightful colours are aquamarine and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 19 and 43.
 
If there's a nasty silence when you're with loved ones today, you'll do your best to ignore it and pretend that nothing's wrong. The alternative, which is feeling hurt and worried, is too painful for you to contemplate right now. Be careful if you're involved in a property deal at the moment because you might overlook something rather important while you're thinking of other things. Favourable colours are ice blue and lavender. Lucky numbers are 30 and 6.
 
You normally know your own mind with no trouble at all, but this Thursday you're so easily influenced by the people around you that you'll end up wondering whether you're voicing your own opinions or merely repeating the thoughts of others. This is great for creating a truly harmonious and compassionate link with someone but it's not so good for making important decisions. Stable colours are ebony and apricot. Lucky numbers are 37 and 78.
 
You're feeling very friendly today and you'll enjoy being with other people. Don't be surprised if you end up being someone's confidante, as they pour their heart out to you, because they'll have picked up on the fact that you're in a compassionate mood. But try not to say things that you don't really mean purely to please other people, because such comments will come back to haunt you in the days ahead. You must let someone down gently rather than pacify them with a lie. Fabulous colours are sage and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 17 and 24.
 
Although you're currently being encouraged to concentrate on your goals, you won't get very far with practical matters today. However, you'll make a lot of progress if you're working on something that calls for inspiration, intuition and imagination. Trust your instincts, although it's a good idea to wait a few days before putting your ideas into action in case you have second thoughts about them in the meantime. Auspicious colours are ultramarine and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
 
It's a strange day and you're feeling much more sensitive than usual. This will have one of two effects on you: either you'll feel completely in tune with the people around you and will be open to all sorts of spiritual insights, or you'll want to escape from harsh reality and disappear into a little world of your own. If it's the latter, you'll benefit from practising some sort of meditation or creative visualization. Lively colours are mother of pearl and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 12 and 7.
 
Be wary about making any important decisions today, especially if they're connected with joint finances, tax matters or anything that involves life and death issues. The situation isn't as clear-cut as you might imagine, and what's more you're easily swayed by your surroundings right now. The more serious the circumstances, the greater the risk of you making the wrong decision. Beneficial colours are sable and saffron. Lucky numbers are 11 and 74.
 
You're surrounded by confusion today, especially if you're trying to work out where you're going in life. This isn't the right day for making important decisions or plans because you're too susceptible to other people's ideas and suggestions. Some daydreaming will help to get your imagination working but you should wait until at least the 8th before making any concrete plans. Happy colours are lilac and ebony. Lucky numbers are 17 and 27.
 
Do yourself a favour and avoid making any important decisions today. Even though you're usually sensible and practical, you've got your head in the clouds right now and you could easily make the wrong choices. Be especially careful if someone is leaning on you over a money matter because they may be hoping to influence you in ways that aren't necessarily in your best interests. Propitious colours are bright yellow and dark orange. Lucky numbers are 14 and 6.
 
You're idealistic at the best of times, Libra, and you're certainly viewing the world through rose-coloured specs today. You're ready to see the best in other people and you'll do your best to avoid harsh reality whenever possible. This is fine, provided that it doesn't last long, but try not to stay in your little bubble of idealism for too long, otherwise you might avoid something important that needs your attention. Advantageous colours are mango and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 61.
 
If you're a typical Virgo you aren't always in the most robust of health, and today you certainly need to take extra care of yourself. That's because you don't have as much energy as usual, and also because you could be more susceptible to germs than normal. This doesn't mean you should wrap yourself in cotton wool or swab yourself in disinfectant, but just be sensible and try to avoid anyone who's a one-man germ factory. Stabilising colours are nutmeg and silver. Lucky numbers are 26 and 41.
 
You're full of compassion and consideration for other people today, and you need to show it in some way. So how are you going to do this? You might help someone by letting them pour their heart out to you, even if you don't like what you're hearing. Or maybe you'll be inspired to lend a hand to a charity or voluntary group, especially if it deals with areas of life that are usually misunderstood or hidden away for some reason. Harmonious colours are aubergine and aqua. Lucky numbers are 3 and 28.
 
Love and travel go together this month, so you know what to do if you're currently searching for Mr or Ms Right! If you're about to go on holiday you could lose your heart, either to someone you meet while you're away or to the destination itself. Travel of the mind could have the same emotional impact, perhaps when you fall for a fellow student or you become besotted with the subject you're studying. Auspicious colours are basalt and cherry. Lucky numbers are 20 and 25.
 
It's time you got involved in some serious pampering. Think about a whole new image for the new year if you can afford it, or perhaps a makeover or new hair style. This is certainly the perfect excuse to spice up your wardrobe or alter your hairstyle, because by doing so you'll look better and boost your self-esteem in the process. Such changes don't have to cost the earth although you'll be sorely tempted to splash out in all directions. Auspicious colours are turquoise and silver. Lucky numbers are 46 and 1.
 
Your relationships start to improve from today and this happy state will continue until the end of the month. You'll want to create harmony and happiness with partners whenever possible, and will try to go out of your way to put others at their ease and make them feel appreciated. It will also be important for you to spend lots of time with other people because you'll feel slightly at a loss if you're on your own too often. Ideal colours are tangerine and gold. Lucky numbers are 6 and 76.
 
Life has a lot to offer during the next three weeks, thanks to an emphasis on your love life and on your creative abilities. This is the perfect time to concentrate on the people and activities that you really enjoy, especially if they put you in the limelight in some way. For instance, if you've been wondering about throwing a party to celebrate something, try to fit it in before the 26th so you can get the maximum amount of enjoyment from it. Auspicious colours are dark purple and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 35 and 30.
 
Once again you're in a snappy, scratchy mood, but it's risen a few notches since yesterday. Now, you're ready for a blazing row if needs be, because you've got a long list of grievances that you want to get off your chest. So you're not happy about something, but try to keep your anger within bounds and don't drag in all sorts of other complaints that have nothing to do with the current situation. Advantageous colours are turquoise and jade. Lucky numbers are 19 and 62.
 
There are clashes about love and money, so tread carefully. If you're out shopping with someone, one of you will be full of advice about what the other one should and shouldn't buy. This could soon lead to raised voices and hurt feelings, so keep your opinions to yourself unless you're asked to say what you think. Even then, a little tact would be a good idea. Beneficial colours are almond and peach. Lucky numbers are 8 and 42.
 
There's a lot of romance in the air during the next three weeks, which will doubtless appeal to a softie like you. You might get involved in a secret or very private relationship, whether it's platonic or sexual, in which a lot of the pleasure comes from the fact that no one else knows about it. But take care if you do start a hush- hush love affair because it could easily lead to heartache and disappointment. Romantic colours are cherry blossom and peach. Lucky numbers are 6 and 34.
 
If you want to do yourself a favour you should cultivate influential people this month. That doesn't mean buttering them up in a shameless and obvious fashion, but it does involve being polite and friendly. For instance, you might make an effort to view your boss as a human being rather than a pain in the neck, even though this may involve quite a stretch of the imagination! Bright colours are lemon and marzipan. Lucky numbers are 1 and 28.
 
It's another day where you have to cope with someone's emotional demands. Bite the bullet Aries. Today, either a friend or a close partner is feeling possessive of you and they don't want to share you with anyone or anything else. How do you feel about this? If it's only a temporary situation you may want to ignore it, but if it's a regular occurrence you'll be very keen to put your foot down. Expressive colours are peach blossom and claret. Lucky numbers are 5 and 25.
 
Enjoy your social life during the next three weeks because it will give you plenty to smile about. It's a great opportunity to spend more time with neighbours and close relatives, especially if you haven't seen much of them lately or there have been problems between you. You'll also enjoy getting involved in local activities which help to put you in greater touch with your immediate surroundings. Auspicious colours are cream and avocado. Lucky numbers are 13 and 11.
 
Concentrate on your working relationships this month because they'll be very rewarding. You might want to make a special fuss of one of your colleagues, perhaps because they've had a bad time recently or simply because you adore them. Or it would be a good idea to make an effort to get on better with that so-and-so whose special task in life seems to be getting right up your nose. Sounds impossible? Give it a try and see what happens. Beneficial colours are sage green and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 12 and 32.
 
There's a noticeable gap between your expectations and your finances today, which is very annoying! This means that you'd like to do something but you can't afford it, and it's no good pretending that you can because you'll soon regret your extravagance. Can you scale down your plans or does it have to be all or nothing? Try not to take out your frustration on the people around you. Favourable colours are golden brown and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 49 and 61.
 
Make an effort to get on well with someone who has power or authority over you. This might be your boss or it could be an older relative that you need to keep sweet. Don't worry, because it won't be a difficult goal to achieve right now. Even if this person is often a pain in the neck there's an improvement in their behaviour today. Beneficial colours are peach and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 12 and 26.
 
Someone is very needy today, which may or may not be a good thing. For instance, they might want you to devote all your attention to them, whether or not you can spare the time, or they may need you to reassure them about your feelings for them. You'll soon get fed up with this if it carries on for too long but you'll feel guilty if you get exasperated. Never mind, it will soon pass. Dynamic colours are marzipan and plum. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
 
This isn't the easiest start to February because you're feeling rather agitated and irritable. Loved ones are particularly hard to deal with today because they have a knack of getting on your nerves or doing things you don't approve of, especially if they start to spend money. Try not to get bogged down in tiny details that don't really matter yet which wind you up like a coiled spring. Fortuitous colours are coffee and ochre. Lucky numbers are 36 and 49.
 
Are you trying to do too much? It certainly looks like it, and it's making you feel bad-tempered, frazzled and nervy. Do your best to slow down and take things at a more measured pace, otherwise you'll waste all your nervous energy in panicking and trying to beat the clock. You can't cram several days' worth of activities into only a few hours, so concentrate on the priorities and let everything else look after itself. Advantageous colours are violet and cream. Lucky numbers are 39 and 19.
 
A certain person is operating on a short fuse, making them a right old crosspatch. Everything you do or say seems to be wrong, and they're taking great delight in pointing out all your faults. You can either let them get on with it and let all this criticism wash over you, or you can give as good as you get. But if you do the latter, you could soon get involved in a bad-tempered and childish squabble. Stable colours are opal and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 24 and 70.
 
You're looking for a little excitement this Tuesday, so what do you have in mind? Ideally, you should do something that's a departure from your usual routine or which will put you in touch with the sort of people you don't see very often. There should also be a nice surprise connected with a member of the family or a very close friend. Harmonious colours are rich purple and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 38 and 65.
 
Mind your Ps and Qs, especially when talking to people who have some clout or power over you, otherwise you'll land up to your neck in hot water. It's one of those days when you're very tempted to make the sort of clever remarks that sound great while you're thinking about them but make you cringe the moment you utter them. So save yourself the trouble of having to apologize by not saying anything in the first place. Beneficial colours are amethyst and navy. Lucky numbers are 20 and 62.
 
Take care because it's rather a bad tempered start to February. Someone is feeling agitated and liable to say nasty things whenever they think they're being got at. They could also get completely caught up in tiny details that distract them from more important topics and cause a form of tunnel vision. Make sure you don't come down with the same complaint by getting plenty of exercise and varying your activities as much as possible. Subtle colours are ginger and pink. Lucky numbers are 6 and 52.
 
A woman needs plenty of your attention today, and you'll know all about it if she doesn't get what she wants! She might stir up a bit of a fuss or make it plain that she's jealous of whatever or whoever is taking you away from her. Quite honestly, it would be far easier to give her some of your precious time to keep her happy, and then to get on with the rest of your life. Fortunate colours are charcoal and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 39 and 78.
 
Introduce some adventure into your life today, even if it's only choosing an unusual sandwich filling at lunchtime or watching the sort of television programme you usually avoid. It will be instructive to get a different perspective on the world, and it could even lead to something unexpected but exciting. There's also the chance of a surprise journey this Tuesday, so keep your options open. Adventurous colours are peacock blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 76.
 
Someone has rather a sharp tongue and they're not afraid to use it today. It will be quite painful if you're on the receiving end of all these gibes and sarcastic digs, especially if deep down you know you deserve them. The truth always hurts! On the other hand, you may be the one who's dishing out the barbed comments, in which case you should ask yourself whether there isn't a more positive way to get your point across. Advantageous colours are cinnamon and platinum. Lucky numbers are 9 and 62.
 
Feelings run high today, making it difficult to keep your temper for more than ten minutes at a time. That's because you're feeling rather fraught and fractious, especially if you've got to cope with some family dramas. Well, they seem like dramas at the time, although later on you may wonder why you get in such a state about them. Do your best to keep active so you can work off the worst of your angst through physical activity. Harmonious colours are champagne and sage green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 25.
 
It feels as though you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders. You're facing a stack of work and you're short of time. You may also have a lot of obligations that you've got to meet, making you wonder how on earth you're going to fit them in. Are things really this bad? If they are, you need to do something to reduce your workload before it really gets you down. Beneficial colours are brass and pale green. Lucky numbers are 19 and 78.
 
If you've been waiting for the right time to persuade a friend to do something, this is the day to speak up. If they aren't interested after hearing your spiel, they'll never be. This is also a good opportunity to arrange a social event for later in the week, so you've got something to look forward to. You'll also enjoy getting completely involved in a hobby or taking part in a group event. Inspirational colours are peacock blue and plum. Lucky numbers are 15 and 35.
 
As January comes to an end, you're in a loving and tender mood. That's good news for your loved ones because you'll want to show them how much you care about them. This is one of those days when you value your privacy even more than usual, so you won't want to mix with lots of strangers if you can avoid it. Instead, you'll appreciate having some time to yourself, even if the only way to get it is to lock the bathroom door and luxuriate in a long, hot bath. Harmonious colours are avocado and peach. Lucky numbers are 37 and 35.
 
No matter what else you're doing today, try to find the time for an activity that really means a lot to you. This might mean bathing the children, playing with your pet or listening to your favourite piece of music. You're feeling energetic and will enjoy doing something physical, provided it's got some sort of meaning for you. For instance, a walk through a beautiful park with your best friend will mean much more than working up a sweat on a rowing machine all by yourself. Unless that's your idea of heaven, of course! Auspicious colours are lime and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 2 and 70.
 
It's a wonderful end to the month because you're feeling so upbeat and cheerful. You're a walking advert for the power of positive thinking this Monday, because you're able to view problems as challenges, take things in your stride and not get your knickers in a twist about anything. However, don't let this make you so complacent that you ignore something that really does need your urgent attention and which will cause trouble for you if you leave it for much longer. Practical colours are raspberry and tartan. Lucky numbers are 7 and 14.
 
It's a gloomy end to the month as you're down-in-the-mouth and rather low-key, and it won't help if you're expected to hold the fort at home or at work while everyone else goes off and enjoys themselves. Unfortunately, it will be difficult to shake off your negative attitude and unless you make a big effort it will linger even if your day improves. So start smiling and remind yourself of all the positive things in your life. Ideal colours are fuchsia and white. Lucky numbers are 32 and 44.
 
You're in a rather secretive mood today, which is hardly unusual for a Scorpion. Yet you're also feeling rather generous, so it's a good day for buying someone a present and then keeping it a secret until you're ready to give it to them. Maybe this is the perfect opportunity to buy your beloved a Valentine's Day card or present, and then keep it on top of the wardrobe until the magic day dawns? Fortunate colours are marmalade and plum. Lucky numbers are 28 and 62.
 
Make an effort to get on well with your neighbours and other people you see on a daily basis. If things have been rather tricky with someone recently, this is a good day for burying the hatchet and starting afresh. If this means being the first to say sorry, or the first to break the silence, then so be it. You're feeling magnanimous enough to do it without feeling resentful, and it will certainly show you in a good light. Harmonious colours are pale gold and olive. Lucky numbers are 39 and 55.
 
You're full of energy and enthusiasm this Monday, making it a great start to the week. Have a look round your home or office so you can see what needs to be done, such as tidying things up or doing some cleaning. If you're running out of time, don't be shy about asking someone to give you a hand because teamwork promises to be good fun right now. Ideal colours are opalescence and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 40 and 52.
 
A certain someone is a real friend to you today, especially if you need a shoulder to cry on and they're also good fun to have around. This is a super day to draw closer to some of the people in your life, and to appreciate what you give one another. You might also have a lucky encounter with someone that will definitely work out to your advantage. Fortunate colours are cream and caramel. Lucky numbers are 34 and 6.
 
This is a day for keeping yourself fully occupied; you'll feel slightly lost if you don't have enough to do. If you've got time on your hands, go for a walk or a swim, and preferably take someone along to keep you company. If you're involved in a local event or group you may have to put a lot of energy into it right now. Stabilising colours are coffee and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
You're quite happy to live and let live this Monday, and to take people as you find them. You certainly have no desire to judge them for being different from you, or to tell them how they should behave. If you're with children, they might enjoy hearing you tell them some fairy or ghost stories, or playing a game with you that gets their imagination going. Fortunate colours are lemon and iridescent blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 54.
 
Communication is the key to better relationships during the next couple of weeks. This means doing your best to say exactly what you mean, rather than simply hope that others catch on, and also to really listen to what you're told rather than simply let it wash over you. This is also a great time for taking part in discussions or negotiations because you're keen to see all points of view. Expressive colours are ruby red and cream. Lucky numbers are 37 and 34.
 
The next two weeks are the perfect time to think hard about your finances, and especially about the ones you share with other people. For instance, maybe you should check the bank statements on your joint account in case they contain errors or you're paying out for things you don't really need. You also need to think about your long-term savings, especially if you haven't yet started a rainy-day fund. There's no time like the present! Fortunate colours are ebony and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 28 and 3.
 
You're already feeling as though you're one step removed from the people around you and you become even more distanced from them today. This self-absorbed phase will last for the next two weeks, giving you the chance to ruminate and meditate on the course your life has taken over the past year. Your dreams are more significant than usual, so write them down and study them at your leisure. They hold the key to all sorts of personal mysteries. Exciting colours are olive and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 21 and 68.
 
You're very talkative during the next couple of weeks and love chatting to whoever happens to be around. It's a great opportunity to catch up on your correspondence, whether by snail mail or email, and also to get in touch with people you haven't seen recently. But do make sure you listen as well as talk, even if you haven't said everything you wanted to. Give the other person a chance to get a word in edgeways! Propitious colours are cherry and violet. Lucky numbers are 22 and 22.
 
You're in a very outgoing mood this Sunday and it shows. Get together with some of the people who brighten up your life because you'll soon return the favour. You don't have to do anything very special to have a good time - simply being with someone you care about will make you feel good. Mind you, you'll jump at any excuse to put on your party clothes so maybe you should do something special after all! Auspicious colours are bright red and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 33 and 1.
 
You're filled with curiosity about the world from today, and want to find out as much about it as possible between now and mid February. So where are you going to start? You might even be inspired to enrol in a class or course that will add to your existing qualifications, in which case you'll have a fantastic time. It might also introduce you to a whole host of new friends. Beneficial colours are ebony and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 70 and 28.
 
Like a true Capricorn, you're very capable and practical today. And you'll get the chance to show off your talents, too when someone asks you for advice or a recent success puts you in the limelight. If you're hoping to get a better job in the next few weeks, set aside some time now to brush up your CV or compose the perfect letter of application. It will be time well spent. Fortunate colours are mango and cream. Lucky numbers are 24 and 19.
 
Your brain will really appreciate being given some intellectual exercise during the next couple of weeks. You might get involved in a project that stretches your mental abilities to the full, or which makes you view a situation from an entirely different angle. You'll also enjoy taking part in activities that have a humanitarian slant. Auspicious colours are velvet black and bright red. Lucky numbers are 28 and 10.
 
Your thoughts turn to personal matters from today, and that's the way they'll stay for the next two weeks. This is your opportunity to examine your life and think things through, especially if you're currently trying to decide what you want to achieve in 2005. However, at times you'll have to drag your thoughts away from yourself and towards other people, otherwise they'll be perfectly justified in accusing you of being too wrapped up in yourself. Auspicious colours are strawberry and fawn. Lucky numbers are 24 and 63.
 
Your thoughts turn to long-term goals from today, putting you in a very ambitious frame of mind between now and mid February. You might want to have another look at your new year resolutions if you've let them slide recently, or plan your strategy if you want to get ahead at work. Another consideration is to think about getting some more qualifications. Fortunate colours are sky blue and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 1 and 56.
 
Your thoughts turn in the direction of your health and general welfare today, and you'll continue to ponder these topics for the next two weeks. Virgos have the reputation of being hypochondriacs, although you aren't like that, are you? Even so, it's good to think about ways in which you might improve your physical well-being or to seek an expert opinion if you're worried about something. Ideal colours are magenta and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 13 and 30.
 
Your thoughts turn to the past today and you'll remain in a reminiscent mood for the next couple of weeks. This is great for looking back on your life so far, perhaps with the help of some treasured photos or other keepsakes. You might even be inspired to make contact with some old friends that you've lost contact with, just to see how they are. However, think twice before getting in touch with old flames because you could be playing with fire. Favourable colours are pale green and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 45.
 
If you're still recovering from yesterday's power plays, it's hardly surprising that you now feel like a cat whose fur has been rubbed up the wrong way. You're rather scratchy and irritable, and you'll lash out in all directions given even the smallest amount of provocation. Try to direct your anger at the people who deserve it rather than start a squabble with whoever happens to be around at the time. Prosperous colours are ochre and navy. Lucky numbers are 7 and 52.
 
The past few days have been tough going, but you start to feel much better today. And about time, too! Lift your spirits still further by doing something enjoyable and fulfilling, particularly if it has an international or educational flavour. Maybe you could visit somewhere that's full of history or mystery, or perhaps you'd prefer to take off on a last-minute weekend break? Prosperous colours are pineapple and plum. Lucky numbers are 16 and 74.
 
Give your brain some exercise, especially if gets your creative juices flowing. For instance, you might read a thought-provoking book or watch a film that makes you think. It's also a great day for putting your ideas down on paper or on your computer, whether you're writing someone a letter, confiding in your diary or working on what you hope will be the greatest novel of the 21st century. Fortunate colours are hazelnut and peach. Lucky numbers are 27 and 59.
 
It may not sound very exciting, but this is a great day for catching up with the chores and getting up to date with your finances. So set aside some time to pay bills, check meters or fill in forms, and also to do a few household tasks. Once all that's out of the way, you'll deserve to have a breather and you'll be able to put your feet up with a clear conscience and the satisfaction of knowing you've achieved something. Fortuitous colours are sunset orange and spring green. Lucky numbers are 20 and 73.
 
The atmosphere is still rather tense, and it's more than likely that someone will lose their temper at least once today. Relations and partners are the most likely culprits, but perhaps they're perfectly justified in getting angry with you? Don't goad them into further furious outbursts by being provocative or touchy, but do listen to their complaints. Ideal colours are turquoise and lavender. Lucky numbers are 7 and 33.
 
It's another day when you need to watch what you're doing, because now you're feeling rather agitated and irritable. If you're in the mood for an argument you'll soon get it because you'll manage to engineer a shouting match somehow or other. You need to clear the air, but don't let it lead to a massive row in which you say things you don't mean and do things you regret when you've calmed down again. Soothing colours are peach blossom and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 16 and 35.
 
You won't want to stray too far from home today, and you're reluctant to be separated from loved ones as well. Ideally, you should stay in familiar surroundings or within your own four walls, with plenty of special people around you. You're in a nostalgic mood, so don't be surprised if you feel rather sentimental when you start to look back on your life. Harmonious colours are peach and ivory. Lucky numbers are 23 and 44.
 
Your strange moods of the past couple of days have vanished, leaving you feeling much more sunny-tempered and happy. Celebrate by doing something enjoyable and entertaining, such as going to the cinema or meeting some friends. You'll also enjoy a complete change of scene, so consider a day trip to a nearby town or city that you've always wanted to visit. Fortunate colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 2 and 26.
 
Prepare yourself for a topsy turvy day, in which everyone gets overheated about things that mean a lot to them. This means that even a simple conversation about doing the weekend shopping could escalate into a shouting match. It's obvious that you need to clear the air about something, so try to thrash out the problems without starting a full-scale war. Ideal colours are peacock blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 16 and 33.
 
Get some paper and write down a list of everything you've got to do over the next few days. You will appreciate feeling organized, and those lists will help you to tackle things in their order of priority. This is also a good day for visiting someone elderly or ill who lives nearby, and who might be feeling lonely or in need of some help. They'll be really pleased to see you. Favourable colours are mustard yellow and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 19 and 73.
 
It looks like being a rather frustrating day because you feel you're doing all the work while everyone else puts their feet up. How dare they laze around like this when you're working your fingers to the bone! You won't achieve anything by going into a sulk, so instead take direct action and politely ask them to give you a hand. Beneficial colours are charcoal and beige. Lucky numbers are 27 and 58.
 
Once again, money has the potential to cause trouble, so treat it with respect. This time, the problems could come from your social life, especially if you're planning an outing with some friends. There could be irritable disagreements between you about how much everything should cost, with some of you opting for economy and others choosing extravagance. How are you going to resolve this? Beneficial colours are blood red and dark green. Lucky numbers are 17 and 2.
 
Someone is absolutely determined to get their own way today, so watch out. You're most likely to meet them at work or through a health matter, and you'll have to handle them carefully if you want to avoid them bossing you about or simply steamrolling their way over you. Make sure you don't behave this way yourself, especially if you've got to give someone orders or instructions. Harmonious colours are spring green and dark green. Lucky numbers are 12 and 72.
 
A neighbour, close relative or someone else that you see on an almost daily basis is very persuasive today. They want you to do things on their terms and will be very annoyed if you beg to differ. Try to avoid getting drawn into a battle of wills because it will be highly unpleasant and you probably won't win. Nevertheless, you will want to stand up for yourself, and so you should. Fortunate colours are copper and avocado. Lucky numbers are 15 and 6.
 
Be very careful when dealing with money today because it will be a golden opportunity for someone to behave like a petty tyrant. Let's hope it's not you! All will be well if you do what this person wants, but you'll soon notice a distinct nip in the air if you have the temerity to disagree with them. That's too bad, because you aren't prepared to be dictated to like this. Creative colours are persimmon and quartz. Lucky numbers are 15 and 17.
 
A loved one is quite a handful today. They want to get their own way and they'll do almost anything they can to make it happen. Be wary of starting a row with this person because it could turn out to be a lot more explosive and powerful than you imagined, and it might also drag up topics that you thought had long since been dead and buried. Auspicious colours are grape and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 9 and 58.
 
Beware of anyone who wants to convert you to their way of thinking now, especially if they think they've got right on their side, because they won't take no for an answer. If you get angry about something today, you may feel that you've got to smother your feelings for spiritual or religious reasons, even though this will probably make you even more annoyed in the long run. Expansive colours are ultramarine and oyster. Lucky numbers are 1 and 38.
 
A friend has very strong ideas about what you should and shouldn't do at the moment. They'll make their feelings known today, although they'll do so in so-called subtle ways that feel more like ultimatums to you. If you don't like what's being suggested you must stand up to this person, but that could be a daunting proposition because they're hell-bent on getting their own way. But you can't be bossed about like this, can you? Fortunate colours are sky blue and mango. Lucky numbers are 36 and 33.
 
Emotional blackmail is in the air today, especially when dealing with a loved one. Someone wants to get their own way but they don't want it to be obvious so they're dropping heavy hints or making loaded comments. This is almost guaranteed to get your back up and put you on the defensive, but that will only make matters worse. Rather than put up with this behaviour, challenge them by asking them what's wrong. And then be prepared to listen while they tell you. Favourable colours are ochre and navy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 13.
 
If you stuck your nose in where it wasn't wanted earlier in the month, you'll regret it now when someone makes it plain that they don't like it. Mind you, they'll probably find a very subtle way of doing this, so don't expect them to simply blurt it out because that isn't their style. You may also have to cope with someone who wants you to do something for them but who can't say so and who relies on heavy hints instead. Harmonious colours are silvery blue and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 29 and 20.
 
Be very careful when dealing with other people today because you might encounter someone who is utterly determined to get their own way, no matter what the consequences. Don't get into a row with them because this will be their opportunity to walk all over you, or to control you by going into an icy sulk. You should also beware of behaving like this yourself. Fortunate colours are brilliant white and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 37 and 52.
 
Think twice before getting involved in a row with someone because you'll both be determined to get your own way, and the results could be rather unpleasant. Neither of you will want to lose face, which will mean that you'll both be very reluctant to back down or apologize. This is how wars start, so try to avoid triggering your own outbreak of hostilities. Favourable colours are platinum and russet. Lucky numbers are 37 and 34.
 
Take care, because you're in a very persuasive and forceful mood, even if you don't realize it. Right now you're determined that things should go your way and you'll soon object if they don't. Beware of arousing antagonism in others because it could soon get out of hand and make you wonder what you've started. Use your current determination in positive ways that don't upset anyone, and then you'll have nothing to worry about. Expressive colours are blueberry and cinnamon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 32.
 
A certain person has a hidden agenda and it's being shoved right under your nose today. Maybe they want a lot more power than they've got at the moment and they're doing their best to steal some from you, or they simply want to show you who's boss. Do your best to avoid getting embroiled in a battle of wills because it won't be pleasant and it will only encourage this person to be even more bossy and dictatorial in the future. However, you must stand up for yourself if you don't like what's going on. Fortunate colours are grapefruit and salmon. Lucky numbers are 39 and 59.
 
There's an uncomfortable and subdued atmosphere between you and a loved one today. Maybe they're too busy to see you, making you feel unappreciated and left out in the cold, or you're feeling drained by their emotional demands and want to put as much distance between you as possible. Try to understand that this is a day of emotional extremes and your feelings will soon be more balanced. Ideal colours are apricot and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 23 and 4.
 
You're highly attuned to any possible slights, insults or rejections today, and you'll react badly when you imagine that you hear them. Note the word 'imagine', because you're probably reading far too much into other people's comments. You may also be feeling rather lonely and neglected, even if that isn't really the case at all. Try to cheer up. Favourable colours are dark red and purple. Lucky numbers are 1 and 51.
 
Once again your spirits sink to your boots today, most likely to do with problems with a loved one, perhaps because they aren't around when you need them or there seems to be a vast emotional gulf between you. Don't make matters worse by going into a huff or accusing them of neglect. It may be that you're simply feeling very lonely and you must wait for it to pass. Beneficial colours are dark pink and coral orange. Lucky numbers are 35 and 33.
 
Life feels pretty lonely today. Maybe no one's around to keep you company, or someone special is being cool and off-hand? You're already feeling rather vulnerable, so it won't help if you begin to feel left out in the emotional cold for some reason. But maybe you're making too much of the situation? Try not to imagine that everyone has ganged up against you or that you-know-who doesn't love you any more. This miserable patch will soon blow over. Fortunate colours are salmon and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 9 and 22.
 
Take care today because your defences are down, leaving you vulnerable to other people's barbed comments or criticisms. You could get the distinct impression that someone's love for you is conditional on how perfect you can be, and that you are falling far short of their expectations. Try to take all this in your stride because it's highly likely that things aren't nearly as bad as they seem. Spend time alone doing something you enjoy until you feel ready to face the world again. Favourable colours are amethyst and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 40 and 22.
 
There's a rift between you and a special person today, and you don't like it. In fact, it's making you very miserable and sorry for yourself. But the question is whether things are really as black as you're painting them. For instance, if this person can't see you, you'll immediately tell yourself it's because they don't want to see you or because they've gone off you, whereas there might be a perfectly innocent explanation such as they're simply too busy right now. Stabilising colours are peach and spring green. Lucky numbers are 39 and 60.
 
Tuesday's anxieties and difficulties have returned, but this time they're affecting your emotions. You're going through a tricky patch, as you know only too well, and you need to look after yourself as much as possible. Try not to brood on your fears because that will only magnify them. Instead, do what you can to solve the problem and then distract yourself by doing something you enjoy. Soothing colours are aqua and apricot. Lucky numbers are 10 and 3.
 
For some reason, you're feeling dejected and low-spirited. You have to sacrifice fun for work and you're feeling resentful about it, or you suspect that your popularity among your colleagues leaves a lot to be desired. You may also be feeling rather tired and run down, which will have a negative effect on your mood. So be kind to yourself, get plenty of rest, and try to take any knocks on the chin. Ideal colours are dark purple and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 29 and 59.
 
Once again you're feeling very vulnerable about relationships and tuned into the slightest suggestion that someone is disappointed in you or is going off you. It won't help if someone special isn't around for some reason, because you'll soon start to imagine the worst and tell yourself that they don't care about you any longer. Don't let your fears get the better of you! Insightful colours are amber and aqua. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
 
Oh dear! It isn't an easy day, so take care. You're feeling very vulnerable and insecure, and worried about whether a certain person still cares about you. What makes you think they don't? Perhaps you're reading too much into the situation and it isn't nearly as bad as you imagine? Unfortunately, you may also have to grapple with a distinct lack of money, whether it's you or your partner who's feeling so broke. Stable colours are mulberry and aqua. Lucky numbers are 2 and 64.
 
It's not an easy day because you're feeling rather lonely and neglected. Maybe a loved one isn't present, or they're with you in body, but not in spirit. Although you're showing a tendency to read the very worst into the situation and imagine that your relationship is on the skids, it's far more likely that the person concerned is simply busy with other things for the time being. Get involved in your own projects so you've got something to talk about when you're reunited. Inspirational colours are grey and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 39 and 34.
 
Look after yourself today because your spirits are low and so is your self-confidence. What's more, you're feeling torn between your domestic duties and your working commitments, and you don't know how to strike a balance. Whatever you do seems to upset someone, so it's up to you to find the best possible compromise in the circumstances. You can only do your best, and no one should expect more from you than that. Beneficial colours are silvery grey and crimson. Lucky numbers are 4 and 38.
 
You're feeling better than you did yesterday, so make the most of today's good mood by getting out and about as much as possible. A complete change of scene is especially beneficial right now because it will give you a fresh perspective on life. It's also a good idea to arrange something that you can look forward to for later in the week. Bold colours are jade and azure. Lucky numbers are 24 and 38.
 
You're making a very favourable impression on your boss or superiors today, so keep up the good work. What's more, there's nothing contrived about this because you're feeling genuinely enthusiastic about what you're doing. If you've been trying to sort out a financial problem recently, especially if it's connected with red tape or your job, give it another go today and you might finally make some headway. Ideal colours are amber and maroon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 26.
 
How are you feeling at the moment? If your clothes seem to have shrunk in the wardrobe recently or you feel sluggish, it's time to invest a little time and money in your general well-being. If you've stopped going to the gym but you're still a member, start getting your money's worth again by making some regular visits. Or maybe you fancy buying some vitamin pills or organic food to give yourself a boost? You don't have to spend a fortune to feel good. Beneficial colours are bright purple and ginger. Lucky numbers are 19 and 63.
 
A certain someone is feeling very nostalgic, and it's almost certain that they're being idealistic at the same time. Should you burst their bubble and tell them that things weren't nearly as rosy as they're painting them, or should you let them get on with it? Make sure you don't fall into the same sentimental trap, especially if you're feeling in need of comfort at the moment. Auspicious colours are navy and tan. Lucky numbers are 25 and 49.
 
You're feeling a bit more cheerful today, and can even see the funny side of what's been happening to you. You're also in a sociable frame of mind, and will love getting together with some of your favourite people. This is a great day for chatting to neighbours or other people you see on an almost daily basis, or for passing on a fascinating snippet of news. Uplifting colours are maroon and lilac. Lucky numbers are 12 and 70.
 
You've got plenty of energy and vitality today, so put them to good use. It will be a pleasure for you to be active, and you'll get the best of both worlds if you can combine pleasure with exercise in some way. How about going dancing with some friends or playing an energetic game with some children? Or are you thinking of something much more intimate with you-know-who? Empowering colours are bright red and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 77.
 
You're full of energy today Pisces, so don't let it go to waste. It's an especially good day for rolling up your sleeves at work and being even more industrious than usual. It won't feel like a chore, either, because you'll take pride in what you're doing. If you've been thinking about applying for a new job, keep your eyes peeled for something that has your name written all over it. Powerful colours are smoky quartz and russet. Lucky numbers are 36 and 19.
 
Spend some time with a very special person, preferably without anyone else around. It will do you good to be together, and things could soon become X rated if you have a sexual relationship with them. This is also a good day to channel your energy into your joint finances and long-term savings, perhaps by finding out whether you're getting the best deal and doing something about it if you aren't. Fortuitous colours are burgundy and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 24.
 
Be very careful about what you say and do today because there's a strong possibility that you're being misleading or confusing. You may think you're being as clear as daylight but everyone else will disagree and accuse you of being as clear as mud. Above all, make sure you explain anything important rather than hoping that others have got the general gist and are somehow blessed with the psychic powers that will enable them to read your mind for the rest of the facts. Auspicious colours are silver and gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 9.
 
This is a good day for doing things that you've been avoiding recently, perhaps because they're too tedious to think about or because they make you feel sick with apprehension. Well, you're reached the stage where you'd rather get them over with than worry about them any longer, and once you start them you'll realize that they aren't quite so bad after all. Positive colours are pumpkin and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
 
Feeling slightly down in the dumps after yesterday's trials and tribulations? Then get together with a friend who always makes you laugh, or at least give them a ring so you can hear their voice. Failing that, you'll enjoy getting involved in a favourite hobby, especially if it means you can disappear into a little world of your own for a while. Favourable colours are chocolate and caramel. Lucky numbers are 21 and 42.
 
You're in a daredevil mood today, so what are you planning to do? You might decide to do something that would normally make you feel scared or nervous, or you may simply rush into a decision without thinking it through carefully. If you've been thinking about booking up a holiday, you'll want to do something concrete about it now. Auspicious colours are copper and pale green. Lucky numbers are 7 and 48.
 
You're ultra sensitive to what other people think of you today, which means you'll pick up on the merest hint of negativity and then give yourself a hard time about it. Maybe you should set less store by everyone else's opinions of you and rely more on your own evaluations of how you're doing? Even so, it's a good idea to yourself a favour and avoid anyone with a particularly acid tongue right now. Ideal colours are peach and bright purple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 13.
 
Today's Full Moon will have a big impact on your relationships during the next two weeks. It's telling you to sort out any long-standing problems with partners so you can forget all about them and move on to a new phase in your relationship. In the meantime, you may have to give someone a few home truths or be prepared to admit that you haven't been behaving as beautifully as you might have hoped. Throughout all this, try to keep calm and not turn the whole thing into a frazzled crisis. Ideal colours are coffee and cream. Lucky numbers are 18 and 57.
 
After the extravagance comes remorse, and you'll be feeling rueful if you went over the top yesterday. Rather than not wanting to think about what you've done, it will be far more positive to face facts and take a good, hard look at your financial situation. If you need to let the bank know that you'll soon be overdrawn, do it before they get in touch with you. Favourable colours are sunflower yellow and dark green. Lucky numbers are 30 and 70.
 
If you coasted along yesterday or shelved something important, you can expect to get your knuckles rapped today. Unfortunately, it won't be a very pleasant experience and the person who's ticking you off may make all sorts of nasty comments about your character that really get you squirming. Are they being fair? You may not like what you hear but is there some truth in it? Auspicious colours are marmalade and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 20 and 25.
 
A friend has some harsh words for you, and they hurt. Maybe this person is pointing out all your faults, or they're reminding you of something you said you'd do and then forgot about. Alternatively, maybe you're the one who's in a finger-wagging mood? If so, get things off your chest but don't pile on the guilt or make the other person feel like the lowest of the low, even if you say it's for their own good. How would you like it? Favourable colours are oyster and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 31 and 53.
 
Today's Full Moon is highlighting your career and long-term goals, and will continue to do so for the next two weeks. It's telling you to think seriously about this area of your life and to decide if you're heading in the right direction. Are you on target to achieve your ambitions or would it be better to give up and start again with something that stands a better chance of coming to fruition? You mustn't be defeatist but nor do you want to flog a dead horse. It's decision-time! Insightful colours are dark gold and royal purple. Lucky numbers are 16 and 76.
 
What's worrying you? Something's up, and it's putting a real dampener on your day. Maybe someone close to you is filling your mind with doubts and anxieties, whether intentionally or otherwise, or perhaps you're fretting about the state of a relationship. Whatever is wrong, you won't be able to solve it right now because you're too involved and too likely to take a negative view of the entire situation. Beneficial colours are spring green and silver. Lucky numbers are 14 and 30.
 
Today's Full Moon will be concentrating on your personal life throughout the next two weeks. All those moonbeams will be illuminating any changes that you need to make to your life, whether they are big or small. Is this your cue to give up a bad habit, such as smoking, or to turn out your wardrobe? Or maybe you're thinking of something much more ambitious and radical? Fortunate colours are navy and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 57.
 
In marked contrast to the past couple of days, you're now feeling rather subdued and low key. You may even be distinctly fed up about something and unable to shake off your mood. Be choosy about who you talk to because it won't help to be with people who are naturally gloomy or critical, or who always point out all your failings. Vibrant colours are pistachio and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 35 and 5.
 
Today's Full Moon packs a powerful punch during the coming fortnight because it's teaching you the importance of thinking things through for yourself. This will be no time to make assumptions or lazy judgements because you'll be caught out one way or the other. You should also avoid exaggerating or telling little white lies, because such things will also leave you with egg on your face. Inspirational colours are grape and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 4 and 9.
 
If you've been letting things slide over the past two days because you simply couldn't be bothered with them, you'll have to face the music today. This may be in the guise of someone who criticizes your lack of involvement or commitment, or it may come from your conscience which is giving you a really hard time. Channel your energy into making amends rather than making yourself feel horribly guilty. Ideal colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 32 and 78.
 
Other people's comments will have a profound effect on you today, so try to be choosy about the company you keep. Ideally, you should stay away from anyone who makes a habit of being gloomy or pessimistic because they'll soon make you feel really depressed. You should also avoid talking yourself into a miserable mood by concentrating on all the things that are wrong in your life. Fortunate colours are ochre and lemon. Lucky numbers are 12 and 19.
 
You're overwhelmed by the urge to splurge today and there isn't much you can do about it. You could avoid passing any shops, of course, and also keep your computer switched off so there's no danger of buying things over the internet, but that seems far too boring in your current mood. So try to limit the damage but enjoy yourself at the same time. Inspirational colours are red velvet and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 17 and 39.
 
You're in an extremely hedonistic and self-indulgent mood, and the thought of stinting yourself in any way doesn't sit well with you. Right now you have no interest in counting the calories or watching the amount of alcohol you drink, and instead you long to live life to the full. And it seems that nothing and no-one can stop you! Favourable colours are dark brown and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 21 and 28.
 
Watch out if you're mixing business with pleasure today, because the business part of the arrangement will quickly be eclipsed by a strong desire to have fun, fun, fun. That's okay up to a point, but you don't want to do anything that you'll regret later on when you've calmed down and sobered up. So enjoy yourself but don't go completely overboard. Fortunate colours are peach and khaki. Lucky numbers are 5 and 48.
 
You're in the mood to have fun, which is rather difficult if you're supposed to be slogging away at work. How can you combine duty and pleasure? Well, why not arrange something nice for later on in the day, so you've got something to look forward to? However, once again you must work out how much money you can afford to spend to avoid going over the top and then having to live on bread and water for the rest of the month. Favourable colours are gold and plum. Lucky numbers are 19 and 57.
 
Today, your idea of heaven is to stay at home, doing as little as possible. It's great if that's what you can do because you'll really revel in your creature comforts. However, if you're expected to go to work, your mind won't be on the job because you'll be so busy dreaming about downing tools and relaxing instead. You aren't at your most industrious but try to get the essentials out of the way at the very least. Harmonious colours are navy and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 40 and 4.
 
In an ideal world, you would put all your commitments to one side today and spend your time being lazy, doing as little as possible and eating lots of food. Any chance of that happening? I think not, so you'll have to make the best of it by arranging something nice to look forward to, either at some point today or later in the week. Something else that will cheer you up is hearing a lovely compliment. Favourable colours are red velvet and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 26 and 60.
 
You're in an extremely extravagant and indulgent mood today, so watch out if you're supposed to be on a budget because there'll be nothing economical about your spending habits today. Quite the reverse, in fact, because you'll find it very difficult to resist temptation and splash out on all sorts of treats for yourself and for your loved ones. Fortunate colours are strawberry and toffee. Lucky numbers are 21 and 68.
 
Your willpower is at an all-time low this Monday, so take note if you're supposed to be on a strict eating or exercise plan because you'll find any excuse to ignore it. It will also be hard for you to concentrate on your work, unless it's really gripping, because you'll hanker for more enjoyable activities such as putting your feet up or meeting some friends. Beneficial colours are coffee and dark yellow. Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
 
This is a delightfully easy-going and sociable day, and all you're really interested in is being with some kindred spirits. Arrange a night out on the town or meet a friend for lunch, because you're in the mood to have fun. That's great, but try to watch how much money you're spending because it's one of those days when extravagance sweeps over you and money slips through your fingers like water. Happy colours are sunflower yellow and lolly pink. Lucky numbers are 22 and 62.
 
It may be Monday, but you certainly aren't raring to go. Well, you might be raring to go back to bed, but that's about it. The thought of having to go to work is the last thing on your mind right now because you're much more interested in relaxing and having fun. That's no problem if you can please yourself but you'll struggle to do your bit if you're supposed to be slogging away at work because your heart simply isn't in it. Beneficial colours are pistachio and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 18 and 69.
 
You're in a self-indulgent and fun loving mood today, which is great if you don't have anything important to do. However, it could cause problems if you're supposed to be knuckling down to some hard work because, quite simply, you can't be bothered with it. Get to grips with whatever tasks are necessary so you can then enjoy yourself with a clear conscience. Propitious colours are auburn and silver. Lucky numbers are 31 and 51.
 
There's a conflict today between work and pleasure today; which one is going to win? Even if you are at work your mind will be elsewhere, as you indulge in some pleasant daydreams or plan what you'll be doing when you get home. Don't get caught by your boss! However, make sure you have some fun at some point today, otherwise you'll feel really hard-done-by. Fortunate colours are salmon and dark green. Lucky numbers are 19 and 4.
 
You need to be sure of your facts before stating your case today. Mind you, that's easier said than done because your mouth may run away with you, and you'll hear yourself making announcements with absolute certainty while privately wondering what on earth you're talking about. Make sure you don't land yourself in hot water as a result, or make promises you can't keep. Beneficial colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 21 and 12.
 
Keep a pinch of salt handy because you'll need it at some point today. That's because certain people could start to exaggerate when they're talking to you, perhaps to make a better story or simply because they get carried away with enthusiasm. This is normally quite harmless but it could cause problems if they mislead you in some way or you take everything they say as gospel. Fortunate colours are coffee and champagne. Lucky numbers are 14 and 30.
 
A loved one is very persuasive this Sunday, especially if they're trying to talk you into joining them in a money-making scheme. Watch out because there's no such thing as a free lunch and this person may be leaving out some rather valuable information in case it puts you off. They aren't deliberately trying to pull the wool over your eyes but they are giving things a very positive spin that isn't entirely realistic. Inspiring colours are dark purple and apricot. Lucky numbers are 8 and 30.
 
Be careful when talking to relatives and other loved ones because you could easily get carried away and say too much. You might exaggerate the facts without realizing it, so the other person gets the wrong impression of what's going on in your life, or you may simply dominate the conversation without realizing it, so no one else can get a word in edgeways. Auspicious colours are passionfruit and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 5.
 
Think about your plans for the future; are you happy with the way they're proceeding? You also need to ask yourself whether you can afford to put them into action, and what you're going to do if the answer's 'no'. It's tempting to gloss over these awkward questions, but you have to ask them sooner or later. Be brave! Fortunate colours are dark blue and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 20 and 9.
 
Your tongue could run away with you today, making you say all sorts of things you don't really mean. Be careful not to make promises you can't deliver, especially if they have emotional or financial overtones. You should also be wary of someone who's so silver-tongued that they can talk you into parting with your cash even though you'd rather not have handed it over. Diplomatic colours are russet and cream. Lucky numbers are 37 and 10.
 
A certain person could get awfully carried away today, which makes them say things they don't mean or offer to do things they'll never get round to. Try to take all this with a pinch of salt, otherwise you'll feel incredibly let down when you realize that it was all just a load of hot air. And make sure you don't fall into the same trap yourself of promising more than you can deliver! This is a day to say what you mean and mean what you say. Favourable colours are persimmon and lemon. Lucky numbers are 13 and 48.
 
Someone is full of good ideas today. Or so they think, at any rate. You may beg to differ once you've heard what they've got to say, especially if they're being far too ambitious or overblown. Nevertheless, this is a great day for dreaming up schemes for the future, preferably in tandem with someone you trust, provided that you know where to draw the line. Receptive colours are jade and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 38 and 60.
 
If you're usually full of doubts about your abilities, you'll have no problems today because you'll feel nicely confident without going over the top. In fact, you'll be amazed at what you manage to achieve! However, if you're already pretty self-assured, you'll have to stop yourself becoming too big for your own boots and taking on projects that you can't possibly cope with. Advantageous colours are ginger and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 1.
 
You have very big ideas today and it's almost impossible to stop talking about them. However, you may have to edit some of what you say in case you accidentally reveal a secret or you exaggerate the facts and give a misleading impression. If you're writing an important letter, try to leave it for a while before putting it in the post, so you can re-read it and check that you're happy with what you wrote. Fortunate colours are mother of pearl and oyster. Lucky numbers are 18 and 46.
 
Someone is full of big, ambitious ideas today but will anything come of them? You can't help wondering, but should you pour cold water on this person's schemes or gently encourage them and hope that all your doubts are unfounded? You may also be thinking big right now, especially where your work or health are concerned, but are you being realistic? Ideal colours are oyster and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 21 and 38.
 
It's easy to be swept along by enthusiasm and take an overly optimistic view of life today, so try to keep your feet on the ground whenever possible. For instance, you might overestimate how much money you've got in the bank and then spend it, only to realize later on that you miscalculated and now you're broke. Resist the siren lure of friends who want you to join them on an expensive outing if you can't afford it. Fortunate colours are lemon and cherry. Lucky numbers are 34 and 78.
 
You may think you know a loved one through and through, but what happens between you today surprises you because it shows a new facet of their personality. It just goes to prove that you can never take anyone for granted. You might also hit on an unusual or innovative way to change the look or feel of your home, but make sure you consult the other residents before putting your plan into action in case they hate it. Beneficial colours are taupe and lavender. Lucky numbers are 6 and 49.
 
Keep your ear to the ground because you could hear something very interesting. It might be some surprising news, perhaps about something you weren't expecting to happen or about a neighbour who behaves in ways you would never have expected from them. If you're going out, you'll enjoy visiting somewhere for the first time. Advantageous colours are marmalade and avocado. Lucky numbers are 39 and 42.
 
Someone shows themselves in a completely new light today, forcing you to revise your opinion of them. For instance, if you've always thought that a certain person was a bit of a stick-in-the-mud, you'll be pleasantly surprised now when they reveal a much more light-hearted side to their character. If you've applied for a new job recently there could be some surprise good news now. Fortunate colours are turquoise and bright purple. Lucky numbers are 38 and 13.
 
You know what they say about not judging books by their covers, and sure enough you learn the wisdom of that today. Don't assess someone purely on the strength of their appearance, accent or some other outward characteristic. Once you give them the chance to show their true personality you'll realize that there's a lot more going on in them than you've given them credit for. Ideal colours are lemon and avocado. Lucky numbers are 15 and 1.
 
Give yourself a treat and do something a little different today. You aren't in the mood for your usual Saturday routine. Instead, you long to visit somewhere new or do something on the spur of the moment. Ideally, you need a complete change of scene, even if it's only for a couple of hours, because that will stimulate your mind and make you feel good. Inspiring colours are silvery blue and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 19 and 50.
 
Do something unusual and interesting today, otherwise you'll soon start to feel stale. Maybe you should abandon your usual Saturday pursuits and do something completely different for a change? You'll also enjoy visiting somewhere for the first time, so perhaps you could go shopping in a neighbouring town or district rather than your usual stamping ground. Fortunate colours are ivory and crimson. Lucky numbers are 31 and 11.
 
Do something spontaneous and enjoyable this Saturday. It's not a day for dreary duties and boring chores unless you have absolutely no option, because your heart will recoil from such things. Instead, meet up with some of the special people in your life or immerse yourself in one of your favourite activities. You might also have a surprise visitor who you're thrilled to see. Ideal colours are pink satin and ivory. Lucky numbers are 4 and 29.
 
You're in a very cheerful mood this Saturday, so don't spoil it by getting bogged down in your usual weekend routine. Instead, forget about your normal Saturday schedule if possible and do something entirely different for a change. If you can't escape a round of shopping and other chores, do them in a different order or find other ways to liven them up such as shopping in a nearby town rather than on your own doorstep. Even these small changes will make you feel invigorated. Fortunate colours are shell pink and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 29 and 46.
 
Take a look around your home to see if it could do with a makeover. You may not be in the mood to do anything drastic, but even so you might decide to do some tidying up or to rearrange the furniture. A loved one might drop in on the spur of the moment or they could say or do something that gives you a nice surprise. Fortuitous colours are sage green and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 19 and 49.
 
If you're going shopping your attention will be caught by things that will boost your self-esteem or help you in your job. For instance, you might spot the perfect outfit to wear for a forthcoming job interview or important meeting, especially if you weren't looking for it! This is also a good day for buying items connected with computers and other technology. Energising colours are navy and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 5 and 44.
 
If you get the chance today, spend time with people who are slightly unusual or unconventional. You may not always feel comfortable having them around but you're able to cope right now, and will actually enjoy being with them. Who knows, some of their quirkiness may even rub off on you! If you're going out tonight, consider trying somewhere that's completely new to you. Beneficial colours are primrose yellow and ginger. Lucky numbers are 8 and 68.
 
No matter how well you think you know someone, they'll still take you by surprise today. They may say something that reveals a new side to their personality or confide in you in ways you weren't expecting. Don't worry, it's nothing horrid and it will bring the two of you closer together. If you're out shopping you'll be very tempted to make some impulse buys. Auspicious colours are tangerine and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 11 and 55.
 
A certain someone is full of good ideas for you and they're being remarkably persuasive about making you go along with their suggestions. The trick lies in knowing when it's a good idea to agree with what they say and when it would be better if you politely declined. Try not to do anything outrageous and all will be well. Ideal colours are strawberry and copper. Lucky numbers are 19 and 52.
 
You have a lot of enthusiasm today and you're directing it towards activities that you enjoy. For instance, you might spend lots of time on a particular hobby or spare-time interest. Alternatively, you could become completely wrapped up in a humanitarian venture that you feel strongly about. If you want to get a friend involved to keep you company, this is the day to do it. Inspiring colours are crimson and green satin. Lucky numbers are 27 and 42.
 
Make the most of your energy levels this Friday by doing something physical. You'll soon get fed up if you spend too long being sedentary, so even a brisk walk round the block will help you to feel better. If you need some encouragement, ask a friend or colleague to come with you. Maybe you could make it a regular part of your routine from now on? Auspicious colours are quartz and gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 23.
 
It's one of those days when your enthusiasm could get the better of you, especially if you're anywhere near the shops. Yes, those tempting bargains and must-have deals will seem to be waving at you from the shelves, saying 'Buy me, buy me', and you know what will happen next. If you're planning some domestic changes, don't be talked into spending more money than you intended. Fortuitous colours are amethyst and dark red. Lucky numbers are 32 and 67.
 
You're buzzing with energy and vitality today, making you a real live wire. You'll love it if you're dashing around trying to cram too many activities into too short a time because it will get your adrenalin flowing. Physical activity is very therapeutic for you right now, particularly if you're still recovering from yesterday's disruptions, so try to keep on the go even if you usually lead a rather sedentary life. Dynamic colours are silvery blue and sunset orange. Lucky numbers are 40 and 33.
 
You're raring to go this Friday and have big plans about where you're going and what you're going to achieve. That's great, but you'll make the greatest progress if you can listen to someone's advice or instructions first. You'll also be happiest if you can be left to your own devices while you get on with all this, because then you'll be able to concentrate fully on what you're doing. Auspicious colours are aubergine and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 14 and 27.
 
You're happiest when you can work at your own pace, without anyone breathing down your neck, telling you what to do. If you're left to your own devices like this you'll get a tremendous amount done. You could also become involved in a charitable venture right now, in which case you'll want to give it as much help as possible. Favourable colours are charcoal and cream. Lucky numbers are 17 and 48.
 
You're in a go-getting mood, especially when it comes to anything connected with your work or your finances. You aren't prepared to settle for a second best performance so you'll do everything as well as possible. If you're hoping to make a good impression on a boss, this means you may have to work round the clock to complete your tasks in time. And it will be worth it! Prosperous colours are aquamarine and brilliant yellow. Lucky numbers are 18 and 68.
 
Work off any lingering nervous tension from yesterday by keeping active whenever possible. Go for a walk, get on your bike, visit the gym or do anything else that will help to keep you fit and happy. If it sounds like a good idea but you aren't sure you can muster the energy, rope in a friend or loved one to keep you company. Insightful colours are jade and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 7 and 78.
 
Are you taking enough care of your body? Do you get enough exercise or eat enough of the right foods? You may have a subscription to the gym but do you actually go there? These are all questions to ask yourself this Friday, but you must be honest about the answers! Decide that you need to devote more time to your well-being and how you should go about it. Propitious colours are aqua and magenta. Lucky numbers are 15 and 46.
 
You're full of energy and buzz today, and you can't wait to get going on projects that fill you with excitement. This is a super day for pursuing your travelling plans, perhaps by booking that flight or choosing the perfect hotel. If such things are out of the question for the moment, don't fret because you'll have plenty of fun closer to home if you can get together with friends or other people who are on your wavelength. Expressive colours are sapphire blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 43.
 
Anything is possible today. If you want to do something, you won't allow anything to stand in your way and will tell yourself that you'll come up with a solution to various obstacles sooner or later. And, who knows, maybe you will as you're being so positive and confident? At the moment you feel as though you could take on the world and win! Ideal colours are pale gold and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 14 and 8.
 
A friend has a strange knack of moving the goalposts today, much to your annoyance. You might arrange to meet them at a certain time and place, only to have them ring up at the last minute and change the plan. Or they may say one thing and do another, leaving you wondering what's going on. Try to be flexible and go with the flow, otherwise you'll end up wanting to scream. Favourable colours are lapis lazuli and mango. Lucky numbers are 38 and 46.
 
Is a loved one deliberately trying to wind you up or do they just have a knack of making you grit your teeth and roll your eyes? You need every ounce of patience when dealing with you-know-who today because they're being so contrary and difficult, especially when it comes to ideas and items that you feel strongly about. Do you think there might be a connection between their disruptive behaviour and your insistence on honouring your values and priorities? Harmonious colours are lemon and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 12 and 22.
 
Watch out if you're supposed to be on an economy drive right now because you could easily splash out some money on the spur of the moment. This is especially likely if you're out on the town, you're with a friend or you see an item connected with one of your favourite hobbies. It will be almost impossible to resist your urge to splurge. Prosperous colours are scarlet and lavender. Lucky numbers are 3 and 27.
 
Domestic plans look like going haywire today, so be prepared for a few spanners in the works. For instance, a member of the family may drop a mini-bombshell when you're least expecting it or you may have to rearrange your plans to fit in with someone else's emergency. It's all rather disjointed and disruptive, so take care of yourself and try not to get yourself into a state over matters that are really very minor. Comforting colours are marmalade and indigo. Lucky numbers are 6 and 35.
 
Don't be surprised if someone speaks out of turn or says the wrong thing today. It's one of those days when you need to develop a very thick skin if you want to avoid feeling shocked, hurt or angry by what someone says to you. It's more than likely that they'll tread on your toes by accident rather than by design. Of course, you might also drop a few clangers, so take care! Favourable colours are bright yellow and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 14 and 48.
 
The last thing you want is to be confined to one place for too long, because if that happens you'll soon start to feel suffocated and bored, and then you'll want to stir up trouble to see what happens next. However, you may not be consciously aware of what you're doing because you'll be acting instinctively. Try to let off steam in more positive and constructive ways, rather than by causing havoc with your nearest and dearest. Favourable colours are black velvet and soft pink. Lucky numbers are 40 and 61.
 
You need to keep your wits about you when dealing with a certain person today because there's no knowing what they'll do or say. You might be forgiven for thinking that they're deliberately trying to wrong-foot you or catch you out in some way, for no better reason than that it amuses them. Keep your sense of humour and let them get on with it. You've got better things to do with your time. Fortunate colours are mother of pearl and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 22 and 31.
 
A loved one has an uncanny knack of getting under your skin today. They seem to be going out of their way to be difficult and obstructive, and being as contrary as possible. Maybe you should use a little reverse psychology on them by asking them to do the opposite of what you really want? There could also be a disagreement with someone over what they spend their money on. Soothing colours are silvery blue and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 1 and 69.
 
The more rigid and restrictive your routine, the more you'll have to cope with chaotic disruptions today. These irritating incidents are actually sending you a message, telling you to relax and take things more in your stride, although at the time you'll be too busy pulling your hair out to look for a deeper meaning in these difficult situations. But once things have calmed down, ask yourself how you can cut yourself some slack. Liberating colours are white quartz and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 32 and 65.
 
Life has a habit of becoming chaotic today, so be prepared for your plans to work out in ways you weren't expecting. Allow plenty of time if you're travelling because you may encounter delays or interruptions, and there will also be unforeseen problems if it's an ordinary day at work. Do your best to take all this in your stride because there's nothing you can do about it. Favourable colours are turquoise and lilac. Lucky numbers are 4 and 72.
 
Watch what you say today, especially if you're feeling rather agitated or irritable. There's a strong possibility that you could blurt out the very thing you were supposed to keep under wraps, or you might drop the sort of brick that turns everyone speechless. Do yourself a favour and try to avoid making comments about political or religious matters because that really will be asking for trouble. Beneficial colours are apple blossom and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 32 and 58.
 
You're determined to go your own way, even if it creates ructions with other people. Right now, you have no desire to be bossed about or given orders, even if it would be in your best interests to do what you're told. The more you feel you're being restricted by authority figures and red tape, the greater your desire will be to rebel. Watch out! Expansive colours are aquamarine and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 9 and 78.
 
You enter a more reflective and peace-loving phase today, and you'll need to have plenty of space for the next month. It's not that you're suddenly feeling antisocial, simply that you'll have to combine your social life and other concerns with a lot of time spent on your own. Whether or not this will be easy will depend on your circumstances, but even if you're surrounded by family all day long you'll have to find some way of retreating every now and then. Expansive colours are ginger and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 37 and 69.
 
If you felt good yesterday you're feeling even better today, which is very good news. You're in the mood to enjoy yourself and will manage to do this whatever you have planned. What's more, your happy-go- lucky attitude will rub off on everyone else as well, making you a very popular person to have around. Listen out for some good news about a child or loved one. Ideal colours are nutmeg and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 32 and 36.
 
Between now and late February, your sense of identity and self- esteem will be strongly related to the amount of respect you're receiving. If you're doing well and people admire you, you'll feel great now. But if you're having a bad time at the moment or you're out of work, you'll worry about what people are saying about you behind your back. But isn't there more to you than simply what you do for a living or how successful you are? Harmonious colours are pineapple and dark grey. Lucky numbers are 11 and 9.
 
Get set for a really enjoyable month ahead! Love, happiness, laughter and creativity are all waiting for you now, so this is no time to hold back or stint yourself. Don't be surprised if your popularity goes through the roof, or if your status switches from being single to being part of a couple. You'll also have a lot of fun with children and some of your favourite people over the next four weeks. Beneficial colours are russet and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 33 and 35.
 
The coming four weeks promise to be a time of great excitement for you, in which you'll be offered all sorts of possibilities and opportunities that you can't wait to explore. These might take the form of travel, further education or a spiritual quest, or something else that will make you see the world in a new way. Don't stifle this urge to broaden your mental and physical horizons. Dynamic colours are blood red and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 37 and 69.
 
Once again you're in a very gregarious mood, so it would be a shame to spend too much time on your own. Besides, this is a wonderful chance to get to know someone better because you're feeling so outgoing and friendly. Don't worry if you're going to a social event and you don't know many people because you'll soon get chatting to all and sundry. There's no danger of you being a wallflower! Favourable colours are caramel and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 11 and 49.
 
During the next four weeks you'll be happiest when you're surrounded by familiar faces and places. This isn't a good time of year for being far from your own front door because it will make you feel unsettled. Right now, you gain your sense of identity from being with people that you know very well, so it's a great opportunity to arrange a big family gathering or spend more time with your closest relatives. Stabilising colours are dark red and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 19.
 
During the next four weeks you'll feel a strong bond with other people. In fact, your sense of identity will be strengthened by being with others, so you won't want to spend too much time by yourself. This is the perfect opportunity for teaming up with someone, whether or not it's a permanent arrangement, and for trying to fit in with everyone around you. Fortunate colours are peach and ivory. Lucky numbers are 26 and 7.
 
You've been feeling withdrawn and reticent so far this month but you start to blossom from today, and during the next four weeks you'll be on really great form. This is the perfect opportunity to get out your list of New Year resolutions (what do you mean, you don't have a list?) and start running through it. What are you going to achieve first? Seize the initiative and make things happen! And if you don't have a list, write one immediately! Beneficial colours are avocado and violet. Lucky numbers are 13 and 22.
 
You have a strong urge to communicate with other people during the next four weeks. If you're a typical Sagittarian then you're normally a good communicator anyway, but right now this part of your personality will be more important than normal. Your sense of identity will be enhanced by your ability to talk to others, and your conversations will help you to understand yourself in new ways. Receptive colours are plum and walnut brown. Lucky numbers are 27 and 17.
 
During the next four weeks you'll enjoy mixing with friends and other like-minded people whenever you get the chance. In fact, being with them will do wonders for you on many levels. If your social circle has shrunk recently for some reason, this is the perfect opportunity to enlarge it, perhaps by joining a society or club that has always appealed to you. Ideal colours are golden honey and silver. Lucky numbers are 31 and 77.
 
Things go very well for you this Wednesday, and it could turn out to be one of the highlights of your week. It definitely helps that you're feeling so sociable and tolerant, and also that you're doing your best to put others at their ease. If you don't have anything nice to look forward to during the next couple of months, consider arranging a short break or a holiday. It's exactly what you're in the mood for right now. Harmonious colours are cream and crimson. Lucky numbers are 5 and 19.
 
The shops are calling your name! You're particularly drawn to items that will beautify or adorn you in some way, such as some new clothes or scent. As you know only too well, you'll have to restrain yourself if you're currently counting every penny. Maybe you could treat yourself to something small instead, or compromise with a bar of chocolate or a bag of your favourite sweets? Favourable colours are pale gold and sage green. Lucky numbers are 8 and 53.
 
It doesn't seem very kind but you can't help thinking that a certain person is being completely ineffectual this Tuesday. Maybe they're mooching about like a wet lettuce so you want to shake them, they're indecisive to the point of inanity or they seem to have lost all backbone. You may also suspect their motives in behaving like this, perhaps because they want you to take over what they're supposed to be doing. Will you fall for this trick? Auspicious colours are terracotta and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 12 and 61.
 
You need plenty of patience today when dealing with a loved one. They're very dithery, which drives you bats because you can't get much sense out of them. If they go shopping for you they might forget the one thing you need most of all, or they could get into a muddle over a domestic arrangement. Before you blow your top, ask them if something is bothering them because maybe they're distracted by worries you don't know about. Favourable colours are ultramarine and ochre. Lucky numbers are 11 and 73.
 
It's time to call a truce after yesterday's frazzled atmosphere. Apologize if you think you caused a scene, and make sure you mean it! You're feeling very sociable this Tuesday, so try to get together with someone who's on your wavelength. Maybe you fancy a night out with friends, or you'd prefer a quiet interlude with one person in particular. Harmonious colours are avocado and cream. Lucky numbers are 5 and 15.
 
You're in a very light hearted mood today, which makes a nice change from yesterday. If you stepped out of line you'll have no problems about saying sorry, and you'll do so with grace and style. In fact, you're pretty silver-tongued all round, so it's a good day for talking to people who aren't always the easiest company because you'll manage to cope with them at the moment. Beneficial colours are burgundy and parchment. Lucky numbers are 18 and 48.
 
Keep your mind fully occupied and you'll feel the benefits of it. Watch an interesting programme on TV rather than something undemanding, or buy a really serious newspaper and read it from cover to cover. You'll enjoy giving your brain some exercise and you'll also learn something new at the same time. Conversations with other people will be illuminating now, too. Auspicious colours are spearmint and aqua. Lucky numbers are 6 and 58.
 
This is a brilliant day for talking to someone you trust about your innermost emotions. However, you must choose your confidant carefully to ensure that they don't blab all your secrets to everyone else the moment your back is turned. You'll appreciate having some time to yourself this Tuesday, simply so you can reflect on what's been going on and enjoy a little peace and quiet. Auspicious colours are mulberry and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 2 and 3.
 
If you're at work today you'll enjoy creating as happy and harmonious an atmosphere as possible. You might be inspired to buy everyone a treat, suggest you all go out for a drink after work or get talking to the person no one really likes. It's also a good day for chatting to your boss or supervisor and doing your best to get on well with them. Beneficial colours are golden honey and dark green. Lucky numbers are 21 and 71.
 
A deliciously indulgent mood is sweeping over you, making you long to abandon all thoughts of work and give into sheer pleasure instead. If you're at work and there's no way you can down tools early, how about doing something nice in your break? Perhaps a quick visit to your favourite shop will do the trick, or maybe you'd prefer to arrange a romantic tryst for later in the day? Favourable colours are pale gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 25 and 52.
 
Your social life had the potential to cause problems yesterday, yet it has the potential to bring you happiness today. What a difference a day makes! So enjoy this loving and affectionate spell while it lasts, preferably in the company of a few mates. You don't have to do anything very ambitious with them to have fun now, because simply sitting around chatting will be good enough for you. Dynamic colours are bright red and shimmering blue. Lucky numbers are 37 and 43.
 
You're much more interested in what unites you with others than in what divides you this Tuesday. This means you'll be able to look beyond someone's clothes or the colour of their skin to find out who they are underneath. If possible, you should give yourself an enjoyable break from your usual routine and visit somewhere beautiful or restful. Ideal colours are fawn and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 17 and 69.
 
Try to find the time to talk about things that mean a lot to you. This might mean chatting about your family, telling a friend about a favourite hobby or discussing your spiritual beliefs. Whatever it is, it will be good to discuss it this Tuesday. However, this isn't a one-way process so be prepared to listen carefully to what others say to you. Beneficial colours are azure and grape. Lucky numbers are 12 and 37.
 
There's a nip in the air and it has nothing to do with the weather. Someone is in a bad mood, although they'll do their best to cover it up, and they're silently fuming about something. You won't know about this until you say or do the wrong thing, and then you'll catch the sharp edge of their tongue. Or are you the one who's got smoke coming out of your ears? If so, do your best to get things off your chest without creating havoc in the process. Advantageous colours are champagne and dark red. Lucky numbers are 20 and 71.
 
A certain person is very edgy and tense, and they seem to be spoiling for a fight. They may get on their high horse about something or they could take offence over some innocent little remark. Are they being overly sensitive or are you being unduly controversial? It will help to avoid topics that you know will make the fur fly, but it may still be difficult to keep this person sweet. Soothing colours are mango and cream. Lucky numbers are 3 and 21.
 
If you've been busy with your social life recently, be prepared for a loved one to be a bit miffed today. They may even show distinct signs of jealousy, which is always a turn-off for you but must be faced. Talk things through with them, but don't try to cover anything up because that will only make them even more suspicious of your motives. Beneficial colours are copper and sable. Lucky numbers are 1 and 4.
 
Take care today because you're feeling grumpy and irascible, and it won't take much to make you see red. Maybe you're getting fed up with one of the family, or someone makes a comment that puts you on the defensive, and the next thing you know you're shouting your head off. Sort out what's wrong but don't turn it into a huge saga if it's really only a minor glitch. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 29 and 64.
 
Feeling put upon? Fed up with all the chores waiting for you? It's one of those difficult days when everyone seems to be conspiring against you and stopping you having fun. Your best option is to get on with your work and enjoy yourself when it's all over, but are you prepared to do that? Try not to waste valuable energy by seething and feeling sorry for yourself. Prosperous colours are cherry blossom and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 29 and 48.
 
If you're at work today you'll soon feel run off your feet. Maybe the phones will ring more than usual, people will keep chatting when you want to concentrate or you'll have to cope with some very awkward customers. All this is bound to raise the tension and make you rather snappy. If so, try not to take out your irritation on people who are completely blameless but who happen to have strayed into the firing line. It's not their fault! Ideal colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 39 and 36.
 
Unfortunately someone has got that Monday morning feeling and it's put them into a bad temper. They could take out their bad mood on you, especially if that means throwing their weight around. Or perhaps you're the one who got out of bed on the wrong side? If you're fuming about something, take the opportunity to clear the air rather than let things fester any longer. Inspirational colours are crimson and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 28 and 76.
 
The more high-powered someone is, the more likely it is that they'll be carried away by their own sense of self-importance today. As a result, they might try to boss you about or get you to do all the work and then take all the praise. The big question is whether you should say something to them or whether it's more politic to grin and bear it. Fortunate colours are silvery grey and violet. Lucky numbers are 33 and 51.
 
There are tensions between you and a loved one this Monday, especially if one of you wants to tell the other what to do. Try to bite your lip if you feel the urge to give someone instructions about how to live their life, otherwise the conversation will soon escalate into a row. Hints of jealousy or possessiveness won't help the situation either, so try to keep these at bay. Beneficial colours are avocado and apricot. Lucky numbers are 32 and 62.
 
There's a clash of opinion with a loved one about values and priorities today, leading to disagreements with a loved one and a rather dicey atmosphere. If you get really heated about things that don't really matter, it's a sign that something more deep-seated is going on. Try to think what this might be. Alternatively, maybe you won't have to wait long because you'll blurt it out in the heat of the moment! Harmonious colours are tangerine and baby blue. Lucky numbers are 29 and 28.
 
The atmosphere is tense and awkward today, especially when you're with some of the people you know inside out. Tensions are rising to the surface and causing bad feeling, and you need to clear the air. This may result in a row, but if you do lose your temper you must try not to pin all the blame on the other person while claiming that you're completely innocent of any wrongdoing. Fortunate colours are ebony and ivory. Lucky numbers are 18 and 78.
 
Keep your head down, because there's a lot of friction in the air today. It's particularly obvious when dealing with friends as they seem to be spoiling for a fight. Or are you the one who's ready to take umbrage at the slightest little thing? Try to keep money and pleasure far apart because they'll be a recipe for disaster and could easily lead to bad feeling, so remember that if you have any sort of financial involvement with a friend. Watch your step! Favourable colours are amethyst and violet. Lucky numbers are 39 and 8.
 
Your family and loved ones keep you so busy today. How about cooking a very special meal or help them out in some way? If you've been thinking about improving your home, or even moving house, get out your calculator and start devising an affordable budget. You'll be able to come up with something sensible that doesn't cost too much. Harmonious colours are burgundy and topaz. Lucky numbers are 40 and 9.
 
You're in the mood to do something a little bit different, especially if it promises to be a day of routine. Break out of your usual rut in some way, perhaps by taking off on a mystery tour or visiting someone who always makes you think. If the lure of travel is too strong to resist, start thinking about where you'll go on holiday this year. Auspicious colours are silvery blue and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 8 and 76.
 
You're feeling very sociable and outgoing, so it would be a shame to spend too much time on your own right now. Ideally, you should meet up with a group of friends or kindred spirits, and do something adventurous together. If you're taking part in a group activity you could be asked to take a leading role or to get everyone else organized. Ideal colours are russet and platinum. Lucky numbers are 17 and 13.
 
Life is full of opportunities and you can't wait to get your mitts on some of them today. In fact, you'll want to grab as many of them as possible, which is where the problems could start because you'll have a tendency to take on more things than you can manage. So try not to overcommit yourself to anything, even if it's a string of social events, because you'll be embarrassed later on when you have to admit defeat and scale down your ideas. Dazzling colours are gold and indigo. Lucky numbers are 12 and 48.
 
You're feeling generous and benevolent this Sunday, and it would be a shame to spend too much time alone. You're also keen to do someone a favour, but only if you can volunteer your services. You'll be very annoyed if this person drops heavy hints about what they'd like you to do or automatically assumes that you're going to help them. Steady colours are butterscotch and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 11 and 12.
 
You're feeling energetic and dynamic, so enjoy it while it lasts. It's great for doing something that calls for courage or bravado, because you have plenty of both, or for lots of energy because you've got that too. If the prospect of booking a holiday or arranging a long weekend away is too good to resist, start thinking about where you want to go. If possible, choose somewhere you've never visited before. Advantageous colours are shimmering gold and iridescent green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 52.
 
Try to devote at least a few hours today to doing things that mean a lot to you. You won't be interested in activities that are simply a way of passing the time, and nor will you want to be with people who aren't taking life as seriously as you are this Sunday. Ideally, you should do something that fills you with satisfaction and the knowledge that you've done it to the best of your ability. So what might that be? Ideal colours are crimson and grey. Lucky numbers are 26 and 1.
 
If you know that someone isn't feeling very well at the moment or they're going through a hard time, you'll rack your brains to think what you can do for them. However, it will be a very different story if you're expected to help this person or you feel coerced into doing it, because then you won't want to do it at all. Strong colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 39 and 67.
 
If you're planning on doing some cooking today, perhaps knocking up a delicious Sunday lunch or dinner for everyone, don't be surprised if you end up making far more food than anyone can eat. Equally, you might end up eating more grub than usual, particularly if you're in need of comfort or you're feeling bored. So be on your guard if you're supposed to be watching your weight! Uplifting colours are dusky pink and peach blossom. Lucky numbers are 38 and 71.
 
Get together with some of your favourite people today. You'll love their company, whether they're young or old, although you do have a particular affinity for children this Sunday. If you're with some kids you'll enjoy wearing yourself out playing energetic games such as football or tennis, but could find that you're strangely competitive and determined to beat them. Playful colours are bright pink and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 6.
 
You don't have much willpower today, which isn't very good news if you're supposed to be on a strict health regime or diet. All your good intentions will vanish at the first whiff of temptation, so try to put as much distance between you and your particular downfall as usual. Be especially careful if you're feeling in need of comfort, because that will send you in the direction of the fridge faster than you can say 'chocolate cake'. Favourable colours are amber and silver. Lucky numbers are 23 and 18.
 
You have a tendency to take on too much today, so try to pace yourself. For instance, if you're inspired to cook a big meal for some loved ones you may get over-ambitious and end up juggling too many saucepans or running out of time. It's one of those days when you overestimate your abilities, so be particularly careful if you're at work - you don't want to end up with egg on your face. Dynamic colours are apricot and antique gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 5.
 
If you want to persuade someone to see things from your point of view, you need to do it gently. You won't get anywhere if you're too insistent or demanding. Instead, you must use some subtlety and diplomacy. If you're really clever, you'll manage to get them to do things your way and then convince them that it was all their idea and they're a total genius. Favourable colours are cream and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 8 and 2.
 
This is a marvellous day for putting your ego to one side and concentrating on activities that will benefit others. You might do someone a favour, even if it's slightly inconvenient, or let them pour their heart out to you. It's also a great day for having some time to yourself, so you can mull things over or do some meditation without being interrupted. Inspiring colours are pistachio and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 29 and 64.
 
This is a great day for making things happen, especially if you can work as part of a team. Any sort of group activity will go well, whether it's getting together with some friends that you haven't seen recently or attending a course. If you're lucky, a chum might also do you a favour that's above and beyond the call of duty. Beneficial colours are spring green and taupe. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
You're keen to help other people today, particularly if they can't look after themselves. You might drop a few coins in a collecting tin, arrange a more regular contribution to a favourite charity or actually roll up your sleeves and lend a hand. Right now you're eager to put your ego to one side and treat everyone as your equal. Harmonious colours are ochre and tuscany blue. Lucky numbers are 19 and 31.
 
A close relationship could become even closer today if you play your cards right. All you have to do is be your usual loving, understanding and compassionate self. Easy, isn't it? If you're hoping to get together with someone new, make contact with them now while you're in such an easy-going mood. This is also the perfect day for saying sorry to a loved one in the hope that they'll forgive you. Ideal colours are hazelnut and peacock blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 24.
 
This is a nice, easy-going day, especially if you're with loved ones. You'll enjoy making a fuss of them and possibly even buying them a treat or gift. You're also interested in making your home feel more safe, cosy and comfortable, whether by buying some lovely cushions or carpets, or by burning some scented candles or treating yourself to a bunch of your favourite flowers. Ideal colours are burnt orange and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 32 and 12.
 
You have a magical impact on other people today, and will find it easy to get them to agree to your suggestions. However, you mustn't take advantage of this because such behaviour will backfire on you sooner or later. It's a wonderful opportunity to break the ice with someone you've always wanted to talk to, or to go out on a date with a prospective partner. Beneficial colours are olive and maroon. Lucky numbers are 16 and 36.
 
This is a super day because you're in a very easy-going and relaxed mood. You're willing to take people as you find them, and you don't have any egotistical need to make a big impact on others. It's the perfect opportunity for restoring the peace with someone if you've fallen out with them lately, or simply for creating a harmonious atmosphere with everyone you meet. Inspirational colours are blue velvet and white. Lucky numbers are 38 and 61.
 
Everything goes well today, helped along by your considerate and easy-going attitude. Even if you're doing ordinary things such as going shopping or doing some cleaning, you'll manage to enjoy yourself at the same time. If a loved one or colleague has been under the weather lately, spare them a thought and make sure they're OK. They may want you to do them a small favour. Favourable colours are pistachio and russet. Lucky numbers are 14 and 58.
 
Aquarians have a strong humanitarian streak and today you get the opportunity to display yours. You might want to lend a hand to a friend or associate who needs your support, or you could prefer to get involved with a charity. It's also a great day for taking part in a gathering of kindred spirits, but you'll want to be one of the crowd rather than the person in charge. Your ego seems to have disappeared for the time being! Beneficial colours are saffron and old oak. Lucky numbers are 10 and 12.
 
Pisceans have a justified reputation for being compassionate and kind, and you certainly live up to it. However, you won't want to make a big song and dance about it, so if you give money to charity or help someone out of a jam you'll treat it as a big secret rather than advertise it to all and sundry. If you're currently in charge of a fund- raising venture or good cause, you'll receive a lot of appreciation today. Diplomatic colours are amber and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 31 and 15.
 
A little magic works wonders today. You might try a complementary therapy and be astonished at how effective it is, or you may be tempted to experiment with some healing. Alternatively, you could discover that laughter or love is the best medicine. It's definitely a day for exploring ways of improving your health, especially if someone knowledgeable gives you some guidance. Expressive colours are amber and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 31 and 47.
 
Your thoughts and feelings work together this Friday, which is very good news if you're chatting to a friend because you'll be very eloquent and interesting. However, watch out if you're taking part in a negotiation or discussion because, although you'll be voluble, you'll also be much more subjective and emotional than you realize. Beneficial colours are sky blue and violet. Lucky numbers are 11 and 67.
 
Whatever you're doing today, find time to make contact with some loved ones, especially if you haven't been in touch lately. Maybe you could ring an older relative while you're walking the dog, or send someone a quick email to let them know you haven't forgotten them. You've got a great way with words right now, making you charming and diplomatic. Beneficial colours are tan and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 25 and 62.
 
You'll really enjoy stretching your brain this Friday, preferably by having something intellectual or stimulating to think about. It's a great time to collect some information because it will be a pleasure, rather than a chore. If you've been resisting the idea of arranging your next holiday, you may decide it's such a tempting thought that you can't hold out any longer. Inspiring colours are peach and ivy green. Lucky numbers are 26 and 69.
 
If you're still feeling down in the dumps after yesterday's self-inflicted criticism, this is when you can go up in your own estimation. Get down to some hard work, or tackle a chore that you've been putting off, and you'll soon feel better about yourself. There could also be some good news about a perk, bonus or pay rise connected with your job. Fortunate colours are bronze and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 35 and 46.
 
Yesterday was pretty grim but you're now managing to rise above it. In fact, you're actually feeling pretty good about yourself, thanks to the compliments you're receiving. And no wonder, because you're being very friendly and charming, and everyone wants to be with you. This is good news if you're going out on a date because you'll be fabulous company. Fortunate colours are bluey grey and silvery green. Lucky numbers are 33 and 10.
 
If you felt rather miserable yesterday, help is at hand today. This could arrive in the guise of someone who acts like a guardian angel and says exactly the sorts of things that are guaranteed to make you feel better, or simply because you're feeling more like your old self. If you're becoming involved in a secret relationship, you'll hear something that makes you purr like a cat. Harmonious colours are viridian and red. Lucky numbers are 30 and 6.
 
You're blessed with oodles of charm and diplomacy this Friday, which is especially useful if have to sweet-talk someone who's older or more influential than you. You won't have anything to worry about if you're taking part in a meeting or attending an interview because your personality will make everyone sit up and take notice of you. Fortunate colours are onyx and dark red. Lucky numbers are 19 and 16.
 
If your spirits have sunk to your boots after yesterday's ruminations, cheer yourself up by doing something that has meaning for you. It doesn't have to cost anything, either, if you're prepared to enjoy some simple pleasures. For instance, you could spend time with a loved one, go for a walk in your favourite stretch of countryside or think seriously about how many blessings you have in your life. Favourable colours are ultramarine and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 36 and 8.
 
Once again you'll enjoy being with friends today, but in a less electrifying way than yesterday. That's a relief, especially if you're beginning to fantasize about playing with fire. This Friday is good for getting together with people who are on the same wavelength as you because you'll really appreciate their company and they'll take you out of yourself. Advantageous colours are obsidian and striped agate. Lucky numbers are 12 and 5.
 
Go on, pay someone a compliment this Friday! Tell a child how well they're doing at school, or praise someone's creative efforts. Tell someone, or a pet or a plant how special they are. This definitely isn't a day for keeping quiet about such things, and you'll hear some lovely comments about yourself in return. If a loved one is about to celebrate a special occasion you could find the perfect gift today. Ideal colours are raspberry and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 7 and 72.
 
If you're really worried about your money situation at the moment, think about seeing a financial consultant. There are free services around. If nothing else, they'll be a sympathetic audience so you'll feel better for having talked to them. However, they may also have some useful advice. It's a good day to apply for a loan or overdraft because you're at your most charming. Beneficial colours are dusky pink and iridescent blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 66.
 
You're ultra-diplomatic today, so make the most of it. You have the happy knack of being able to say the right thing at the right time to the right person, which is very good news if you're meeting someone who's usually rather touchy or huffy. However, beware of promising things you can't deliver, or saying things you don't mean, purely because you want to be liked. Favourable colours are plum and shell pink. Lucky numbers are 9 and 59.
 
Life feels rather drab and difficult today. You may have to cope with a financial snag that casts a blight over your entire day, whether or not this is justified. Do your best to shake off your current miserable mood, and to count your blessings rather than dwell on what you don't have. You should also remember that your individuality has nothing to do with worldly possessions. Bold colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 16 and 58.
 
Try to get involved in some wide-ranging conversations today, rather than simply chatting about mundane matters. You could hear some very interesting pieces of information, or discover all sorts of facts about someone's life that you never knew about before. There could also be a surprise connected with someone who lives overseas. Auspicious colours are turquoise and gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 5.
 
There's a strong accent on friends this January and today is wonderful for getting together with a few of your mates. Or perhaps only one will do? But take care because there are strange undercurrents flowing between you and a certain person, creating a magnetic attraction that's hard to resist. Do you want to follow it up or is it best left alone in case it causes havoc? Stabilising colours are violet and rose. Lucky numbers are 14 and 22.
 
Look after yourself today because things aren't very easy. Maybe someone ticks you off very sternly, or you don't need anyone else to criticize you because you're doing such a good job of it yourself. It's one of those days when all your faults are glaringly obvious and your good points are hidden, so it's important that you bolster your self-esteem by reminding yourself of some of your talents. Otherwise, you could end up feeling absolutely wretched. Advantageous colours are turquoise and salmon pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 17.
 
It isn't an easy day because someone is being very strict and critical. You may feel that nothing you do is right, or that it can never be good enough. This is hard to cope with because it triggers all your self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy, even if you normally manage to keep them at bay. Is some of this criticism justified? If so, try to learn from it without taking it too personally. Stabilising colours are pale orange and tan. Lucky numbers are 15 and 28.
 
What's up? It feels as though you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders. Maybe you're feeling bowed down by responsibilities and duties that seem too much to cope with, or you've got to live up to someone's high expectations and never manage to do well enough. Alternatively, you might be worried about an older relative. You're in no fit state to make any decisions right now, so wait for a couple of days before reviewing your situation. It may not seem nearly as grim by then. Ideal colours are pale pink and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 4 and 14.
 
You're your own harshest critic this Thursday, but try not to give yourself too hard a time. Instead of focusing on your faults, do your best to concentrate on all the good things you have going for you. However, that's easier said than done, especially if you're currently kicking yourself about something and wish you could turn the clock back. Be realistic and don't be too tough on yourself. Soothing colours are aqua and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 5 and 25.
 
Someone is unpredictable today, saying things that take you by surprise or make you think twice. This will be a breath of fresh air, because it will make you question assumptions that you normally take for granted. If you've arranged to meet your partner or a friend, consider going somewhere new rather than sticking to your usual haunts. Inspirational colours are velvet red and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 27 and 3.
 
Someone is a stickler for the facts today, and they'll keep correcting you whenever they get the chance. A few minutes of this will really dampen your spirits and probably make you afraid to open your mouth. On the other hand, you may be the one who's so keen to correct another's faults, in which case you should ask yourself why you're behaving like this. Come on, what's wrong? Favourable colours are pumpkin and grape. Lucky numbers are 28 and 69.
 
You're mooching about like a wet weekend and fed up. You're also feeling as though nothing you do is good enough, so it won't help if a certain someone decides to reinforce your worries by pointing out all your faults. This is not the day to hear them, even if there's more than a grain of truth in what this person is saying. Listen to what they're telling you but try not to take it too personally. Ideal colours are tangerine and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 38 and 64.
 
The focus is on your finances at the moment and it makes you feel rather uncomfortable today. Maybe you tot up your recent expenses and discover that they're bigger than you thought, or you get a nasty letter from your bank or credit card company. Or perhaps you simply feel gloomy about your monetary prospects and start to chastise yourself about all those things you've bought that you don't really need. Fortunate colours are bright yellow and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 31 and 19.
 
It isn't a very easy day because you're feeling very sensitive, so anyone's nasty comments will soon start to get to you. Actually, you'll be much happier if you can be left alone to get on with things in peace, especially if you're feeling slightly shy or withdrawn right now. Try to give yourself some light relief, though, otherwise you may spend far too long working because your standards are so high or you imagine you aren't doing things well enough. Favourable colours are orange and primrose. Lucky numbers are 37 and 67.
 
A friend is wandering around in a little world of their own, making it difficult to get through to them. You might not even manage to make contact with them because they've disappeared or they're never in when you ring. If you do succeed in tracking them down, they may find it hard to concentrate on what you're saying or they might start talking rubbish. Be patient! Ambitious colours are lavender and navy. Lucky numbers are 16 and 73.
 
You're very sensitive to outside influences today, so keep away from anyone who is likely to upset you. The same is true of any food and drink that doesn't always agree with you, because it certainly won't go down very well this Wednesday. You may also need more rest or sleep than usual because you're feeling slightly below par. Take care of yourself. Calming colours are umber and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 39 and 11.
 
This promises to be a really lovely day, even if nothing very earth-shattering happens. You're simply in a good mood, you're feeling positive and you're radiating bonhomie to everyone who comes into contact with you. This is very good news if you're hoping to dazzle you-know- who with your charms, because they won't be able to resist you while you're like this. In fact, they don't stand a chance! Advantageous colours are red ochre and american oak. Lucky numbers are 17 and 9.
 
Be careful because your emotions are in a fragile state today. You're feeling sentimental and possibly even tearful, and may keep drifting off into dewy-eyed reveries about the past. Enjoy them by all means but bear in mind that, given your current state, they may have very little to do with what actually happened. Right now, you've got a tendency to gloss over the bad bits and only concentrate on the good ones, which will be very misleading. Comforting colours are peach and dark green. Lucky numbers are 9 and 58.
 
Do your best to keep your feet on the ground when dealing with other people today. That's because you're easily swayed by the people around you now, so someone might influence you to do something that you wouldn't normally contemplate. You're also very kind-hearted this Wednesday, which means someone unscrupulous might want to take you for a ride. Be careful! Favourable colours are oyster and amber. Lucky numbers are 17 and 3.
 
Enjoy being sociable today. It's not a day for keeping yourself to yourself unless you have absolutely no choice in the matter, because you'll blossom whenever you're with other people. What's more, they'll flourish in your company, so everyone will benefit. If you want to increase your social circle, consider joining a club or group that caters for one of your interests. Ideal colours are smoky quartz and ruby red. Lucky numbers are 7 and 68.
 
You're in a very generous mood today, especially when you've got your wallet or credit card in your hand. This may or may not be good news if you're shopping because you could be tempted to splurge on all sorts of treats for yourself and loved ones. Can you afford them or are you getting yourself into even greater debt? Maybe you need to scale down those generous gestures? Beneficial colours are aquamarine and ochre. Lucky numbers are 22 and 44.
 
Check the post carefully because it should bring you good news about your finances. For instance, you might discover that you've been given a rebate or grant by your local council, or you could get official notification of a pay rise. If you're job-hunting at the moment, this is a great day to answer adverts or send off your CV. Good luck! Fortunate colours are apricot and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 35 and 35.
 
You're in a very upbeat mood this Wednesday, so enjoy it while it lasts. Even if you're facing various problems right now, you're determined to rise above them and not to let them spoil your day. This positive attitude could bring a little luck your way, so consider trying your hand at a small gamble. You could buy a lottery ticket or enter a competition, but don't play for high stakes. Stabilising colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 39 and 51.
 
You're feeling full of confidence and optimism today, which is great. It certainly puts a spring in your step and ensures that things go with a swing. If your thoughts turn to holidays and long journeys, it will be almost impossible for you not to book up something on the spur of the moment. Well, maybe that's exactly what you should do unless there are good reasons not to? And you'll probably soon make short work of those! Calming colours are beige and peach. Lucky numbers are 10 and 12.
 
You need to keep your wits about you this Wednesday because someone who is supposed to know what they're doing hasn't really got a clue. This is probably a temporary phase that they're going through, but that won't help you if they give you confusing or misleading information. If you're wise you'll tactfully query anything that sounds wrong, just in case a mistake has been made. Fortuitous colours are magenta and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 16 and 64.
 
There's only one thing you feel like doing today, and that's drawing the bedcovers over your head and being left in peace. You're in a highly sensitive mood, so take care of yourself and don't subject yourself to any harsh environments if you can possibly avoid it. For instance, if you know someone who is very abrasive or aggressive, you should give them a wide berth now otherwise they'll make mincemeat of you. This isn't called being a wimp, it's called self-protection. Auspicious colours are lapis lazuli and platinum. Lucky numbers are 15 and 31.
 
Someone's enthusiasm is bound to rub off on you today, filling you with excitement and eagerness. They may be talking about a forthcoming journey or holiday, in which case your thoughts will start to run along similar lines. How about arranging a future trip, even if you can only manage a modest weekend break at this stage in the year? Stabilising colours are lime and lemon. Lucky numbers are 7 and 69.
 
There's never a dull moment this Tuesday when life keeps you on your toes. You're a lot busier than normal and you really enjoy it. This is a super day for being involved in local activities, such as a scheme to improve your neighbourhood or to raise money for your nearest school, because you'll put your heart and soul into it. And you might have fun at the same time! Dynamic colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 36.
 
This is an ideal day for getting loved ones motivated to do things. That might mean persuading a child to write their Christmas thank-you letters if they haven't already done so, or getting your other half to make that phone call they've been putting off. If you've been at a loose end recently, you'll enjoy meeting new people who could become good friends. Favourable colours are dark gold and cherry. Lucky numbers are 36 and 11.
 
Your mind is working well today, especially when it comes to thinking on your feet. You won't be stumped for answers, even if you're asked a difficult question! You'll be especially pleased if you can pair up with someone to achieve some teamwork, and if you're taking part in a pub quiz you'll be the star of the show. Lucky colours are ivory and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 4 and 51.
 
You're very effective and efficient today, because you've got the drive and energy to really get yourself motivated. This is great news if you're supposed to be doing something that calls for dedication and single-mindedness, because you'll be very pleased with your efforts. Ideally, you should get on with all this by yourself, and without anyone breathing down your neck, but that may not be possible in which case you'll have to do your best. Don't worry, you'll be fine. Positive colours are lavender and jade. Lucky numbers are 8 and 49.
 
It's a day for keeping active and happily busy, whether you're pottering about at home or completely involved in a high-powered job. You'll bring a lot of energy to whatever you do, and it will be highly enjoyable as well. If you're at a loose end, consider ringing a friend or neighbour and suggesting that you both go shopping or have a night on the town. You want to live a little! Active colours are gold and strawberry. Lucky number is 11.
 
This is the perfect day for getting on with mundane and routine tasks. The thought may not exactly have you dancing round the kitchen for joy, but it will be a source of great satisfaction to get some of these chores out of the way. While you're at it, sort out any financial problems that have been nagging you recently, or ask someone for advice about them. Favourable colours are platinum and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 15.
 
It's a fantastic day for standing up for yourself without going over the top, especially if you're dealing with members of officialdom. You'll be able to state your case without losing your cool, and you should get a lot of co-operation in return. So remember this if you have to talk to your boss or supervisor, and don't let yourself get rattled. Inspirational colours are claret and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 17.
 
Ideally, you should do something that has a lot of meaning for you this Tuesday, particularly if it will help others in some way. For instance, you might put a lot of effort into helping out with a favourite charity or a good cause that's close to your heart, or you may decide that charity begins at home with a loved one. Whatever you do, you won't want to advertise your good deeds and will be happiest if you keep them to yourself. Favourable colours are spring green and violet. Lucky numbers are 76 and 57.
 
Take a look round your home today and see if anything needs improving, such as doing some decorating or moving the furniture around. If so, you'll probably be inspired to do it yourself as soon as possible because you'll be consumed with impatience once the idea has occurred to you. You'll also be keen on working out how much money you could save by doing everything yourself. Auspicious colours are tan and navy. Lucky numbers are 9 and 57.
 
A friend is very encouraging today, much to your delight. They might tell you to carry on with a current project because it looks like being a winner, or insist that you continue to believe in something that's only a pipe dream at the moment because it will eventually turn into reality. Alternatively, you'll be the one who's doing the cheerleader act and encouraging someone else to have faith in themselves and in their dreams. Fortunate colours are blackberry and beige. Lucky numbers are 7 and 25.
 
If chores have had to take second place to all the festivities recently, this is a good day for redressing the balance. You don't have to feel like Cinderella as you scrub and dust while everyone else is out enjoying themselves, but it's certainly a great opportunity to get to grips with a few tasks that have been hanging fire. You'll feel a sense of achievement when they're out of the way. Propitious colours are charcoal and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 23.
 
It's time to spring-clean your life, starting with the things you don't usually like to think about. This might mean facing up to some of your fears so they shrink to manageable proportions rather than remaining too big to even contemplate. On a practical level, it means tidying up cluttered cupboards, sorting out that pile of junk you keep ignoring or having a blitz on the dusting. Communicative colours are chestnut and silver. Lucky numbers are 13 and 20.
 
During the next couple of weeks you'll be encouraged to think carefully about your financial situation. You have today's New Moon to thank for this, so look on it as an opportunity to put your finances on a new footing. If you've been careless with your cash in the past, now's your chance to get your act together. If you need expert advice from a bank manager or financial adviser, don't be afraid to ask. Advantageous colours are avocado and russet. Lucky numbers are 30 and 12.
 
During the next two weeks you should be thinking hard about your work and daily routine. Are you happy with them or is it time for a change? If you're fed up with your current job, this is your chance to look for something that's much more interesting and satisfying. It's also a good opportunity to reorganize your daily schedule so you can find time for more activities. Dynamic colours are dark red and parchment. Lucky numbers are 34 and 45.
 
You're being encouraged to establish a greater sense of intimacy with your partner at the moment, and today's New Moon underlines that theme. It is also reminding you to pay attention to your long-term finances, such as your debts and your investments. Make sure that they're all operating smoothly, and if necessary take some remedial action. Romantic colours are apricot and aqua. Lucky numbers are 21 and 8.
 
Do you have enough fun in your life, or do you let work take precedence over pleasure? If you tend to be a workaholic or you think you don't deserve to enjoy yourself, it's time to change your attitude. Try to introduce more enjoyable activities into your life, or do your best to get the most out of everything you do. Showing your love for others will also do you good now. Beneficial colours are silver and white. Lucky numbers are 37 and 20.
 
Big changes are taking place in your partnership right now, thanks to today's New Moon. It's a sign that you need to rethink some of your relationships, especially if they aren't working as well as you'd like. If you've been feeling lonely or on the shelf recently, now's your chance to meet new people. And if you're about to make a big emotional commitment to someone special, you couldn't have chosen a more favourable time. Fortunate colours are mother of pearl and midnight blue. Lucky numbers are 38 and 31.
 
Taureans are sometimes accused of being rather set in their ways, but that will be far from the truth during the coming fortnight. Instead of clinging to what you already know, you'll be fully prepared to experiment with things that you don't know. You'll also be receptive to new ideas and will have a powerful thirst for knowledge that won't be easily quenched. Auspicious colours are banana yellow and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 25 and 61.
 
You're already feeling domestically minded but your focus on your home and hearth becomes even sharper from today. If you've been having communication problems with a relative, this is your chance to turn the other cheek and start again. And if you've been toying with the idea of improving your home or moving house, the prospect will start to take a greater hold on your imagination now. Healing colours are platinum and aquamarine. Lucky numbers are 25 and 7.
 
Your ambitions are fuelled from today, and the New Moon gives them extra impetus. If there's something that you've always wanted to do but have never got around to, why not give it a try now? You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. The coming couple of weeks are also a brilliant time to plan your next move in your career, so get thinking. Auspicious colours are lemon and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 17 and 37.
 
If you want to make 2005 a year to remember (and for all the right reasons!), spend the next couple of weeks brainstorming about your hopes and wishes. How can you turn some of them into reality at long last? First, of course, you'll have to decide whether you think you really deserve them, because if you secretly believe you don't, you'll never get what you want. It sounds as though you're going to be doing some real soul-searching! Auspicious colours are amber satin and cream. Lucky numbers are 19 and 6.
 
It's a new year and you're ready for new pastures. They have to be mentally stimulating and put a spring in your step. During the next couple of weeks you might decide to widen your circle of acquaintances or spend more time in contact with your existing friends. You could also become engrossed in a fascinating book or idea. Beneficial colours are taupe and dark red. Lucky numbers are 12 and 15.
 
The spotlight is definitely on you at the moment, and today's New Moon is encouraging you to make plenty of changes in your personal life. This will be especially true if your birthday falls on the 9th, 10th or 11th of this month because you're all set for a very important year of transition. But whenever you were born, don't ignore this New Moon because it's bringing you the opportunity to transform yourself in some way. Inspirational colours are jade and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 10 and 62.
 
If you've been hoping to start a sensible eating plan that will see off those extra inches that you put on over Christmas, I've got some bad news for you. You're about to embark on a phase in which you can resist everything except temptation, especially if it comes in your favourite flavours. Try to limit the damage and be especially careful about comfort-eating. Auspicious colours are caramel and avocado. Lucky numbers are 10 and 42.
 
During the next few weeks it's a good idea to keep on the right side of the important people in your life. This doesn't mean that you've got to suck up to them, because they'll spot that straightaway, but it might help to make more of an effort than usual to keep them happy. Pay your boss a compliment or give a parent a treat. Let them feel appreciated rather than taken for granted. Beneficial colours are peach and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 18 and 34.
 
Between now and early February, you'll really enjoy giving your brain some exercise. You might decide to sign up for a course or class of formal education, or you could teach yourself all about something simply because you love it so much. If you're about to take off on holiday, there could be a little romance at your destination, which will definitely give you something to write home about. Uplifting colours are bright red and grape. Lucky numbers are 5 and 43.
 
January is often a rather miserable month that comes as an anti- climax after all the excitements of December. But your January is about to improve by leaps and bounds, bringing you plenty of popularity and love. If you're currently single that could soon change when you meet Mr or Ms Right, and if you're already involved with someone your relationship will go through a very affectionate phase. Aahhhh! Fortunate colours are russet and khaki. Lucky numbers are 11 and 72.
 
During the next few weeks you'll love being surrounded by some of your nearest and dearest. These could be your relatives or they might be friends who feel like family to you, but either way you'll enjoy making a big fuss of them. It's also a great opportunity to lavish some care and attention on your home. You may even be inspired to show off your decorating skills. Communicative colours are green and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 5 and 6.
 
Friends are even more important to you than usual during the next few weeks, so try not to neglect them even if you're very busy. If you're currently without many friends, perhaps because you've recently moved to a new neighbourhood or you've lost touch with so many of your mates, this is the perfect opportunity to boost your social life again. Join a society or club that sounds as though it might be fun, arrive wearing a big smile, and see what happens. Inspirational colours are obsidian and ivory. Lucky numbers are 14 and 46.
 
Make the most of the next few weeks because you'll be blessed with an amazing amount of tact and discretion. You'll be astonished at the smooth way you're able to talk yourself out of tricky situations, butter people up without being too obvious about it, and generally keep on the right side of everyone. If only life were always like this! But it isn't, so enjoy it while it lasts. Dynamic colours are hazelnut and bright red. Lucky numbers are 8 and 72.
 
It isn't always easy for you to show the soft and sentimental side of your nature but you'll get plenty of opportunity to do just that during the next four weeks. You'll feel much more romantic and lovey-dovey than usual, which is good news if you're part of a couple. However, you could also be attracted to someone who's already involved with someone else, leading to plenty of temptation and possibly even some secret trysts. Emotional colours are pink and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 44.
 
Yesterday was all about money and that theme continues today. In fact, it will continue until next month, making you long to indulge yourself with all sorts of treats and presents. Although you'll be enticed by fripperies, this is also a very good time to invest some serious money in beautiful or antique items that will grow in value over the years. But make sure you know what you're doing before you part with your money. Ambitious colours are caramel and red. Lucky numbers are 33 and 41.
 
If you're a typical Gemini you aren't always very comfortable about getting close to others, because expressing intense emotions can make you feel embarrassed or hemmed in. However, the rest of January is the perfect time to let down your guard and become more demonstrative, especially with some of the very important people in your life. Favourable colours are copper and spring green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 35.
 
During the next few weeks you'll hanker for pleasant, easy- going relationships and will want to do whatever you can to create harmony with the people around you. That's great, and everyone will love you for it, but try not to reach the stage where you'll put up with almost anything if it means having a quiet life. There could be times when you need to stand up for yourself. Auspicious colours are champagne and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 16 and 19.
 
It's time to pay some serious attention to your image, so find a full-length mirror and scrutinize yourself in it. This may be a painful exercise, in which case you need to do something drastic. Change your hairstyle, buy some flattering make-up or treat yourself to some new clothes over the next few weeks, so you can make the most of 2005 knowing that you look and feel your best. Prosperous colours are golden honey and crimson. Lucky numbers are 20 and 18.
 
A certain person is awfully full of themselves this Saturday. You can't help noticing because they're making such a big fuss about how wonderful they are. Maybe they're boasting about their achievements, or they simply love the sound of their own voice. But do yourself a favour and resist the temptation to give them a taste of their own medicine. It may be satisfying at the time but it won't win you any friends in the long run. Fortunate colours are caramel and ebony. Lucky numbers are 39 and 45.
 
Money has the potential to be your greatest downfall today because it's burning a hole in your pocket. If you see something you want to buy you'll struggle to resist the urge to splurge, whether or not you've got the cash. Be careful if you're shopping or out on the tiles with a friend because you may try to outdo each other in a contest to find out who is most extravagant. Only do this if you can really afford it! Fortunate colours are lime and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 32 and 59.
 
You're feeling proud of yourself this Saturday, but for some reason you don't want to show it. Maybe you think it's big-headed of you, or the current situation means that it would be tactful for you to play down your recent triumphs. However, your sense of achievement will come out one way or the other, so it would be better to mention it quite clearly than to drop loaded hints and hope someone takes you up on them. Be straightforward! Stabilising colours are amber and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 16 and 1.
 
If you're supposed to be keeping something a secret you'd better take a vow of silence today, otherwise you could be dismayed when you hear yourself blurting out the very thing you were supposed to shut up about. The fact is that you'll get carried away, especially if you're holding the floor in a conversation and want to carry on having everyone's attention. You will, but for all the wrong reasons. Dreamy colours are grey and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 39 and 12.
 
A certain someone has a high opinion of themselves today, much to your dismay. It will be difficult to stop them going on and on about themselves, or from telling you all about their clever children. However, there's a chance that you could be the one who's being boastful or pretentious, even if you don't realize it. So try to be aware of what you're saying and of the reception you're getting from the people around you. Bright colours are plum and peach. Lucky numbers are 6 and 24.
 
If you're usually very shy and withdrawn, you'll be amazed at your level of self confidence today. It will help you to make progress with your current long-term goals, and also be invaluable if you're in the public eye for some reason. Your current mood will also encourage you to aim high, which is great if you usually don't aim high enough because you're full of doubts about your capabilities. You're about to amaze yourself! Fortuitous colours are mother of pearl and magenta. Lucky numbers are 37 and 64.
 
Someone is very full of their own importance today. You might be treated to a long explanation of why they're so clever or good at their job, or they may behave in such an arrogant fashion that it sets your teeth on edge just to watch them. On the other hand, you may be the one who's feeling too pleased with yourself, especially if you've had a personal triumph connected with your home or a partner. Don't let your head swell too much! Creative colours are dark green and claret. Lucky numbers are 31 and 6.
 
Money burns a hole in your pocket today. That's fine if you've got plenty of it to spend because you'll have a fantastic time seeing what's on offer in the shops or on the internet. But it isn't such good news if you're supposed to be saving rather than spending, because you'll still get the urge to splurge, especially on items that boost your self- esteem or status symbols. Auspicious colours are oyster and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 38 and 67.
 
Watch out if you're going shopping with someone, because they'll do their best to encourage you to spend, spend, spend. They aren't doing it for any malevolent reason but simply because they want you to have a good time together, and they probably want you to keep up with their spending so they don't feel so guilty every time they give their credit card an airing. It's fine if you can afford to splurge, but hold back if you can't. Advantageous colours are taupe and apricot. Lucky numbers are 8 and 11.
 
You're gripped by a heady sense of optimism today, especially when it comes to your love life and your finances. As far as you're concerned, everything is going well and there's nothing to worry about. Really, Gemini? Are you sure about that? You may be turning a blind eye to a problem that needs to be tackled before it gets any worse. So think carefully! Romantic colours are dark pink and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 30 and 10.
 
You're full of confidence today, which is great. You know what you're capable of and you're pretty certain that you're doing it well. However, you do need to maintain some sort of modesty, otherwise you could be in danger of biting off more than you can chew or coming across as a bit of a know-all. If you meet someone else who's behaving in this way you'll know how irritating it can be. Fortunate colours are iridescent green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 26.
 
A certain someone has very definite ideas about how to do things and they'll soon tell you all about them. Actually, it will be difficult to make this person shut up because they seem to be enjoying the sound of their own voice so much. Yes, they've got rather a high opinion of themselves, which is irritating, but they aren't doing anyone any harm, are they? Be patient! Fortunate colours are rich purple and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 9 and 33.
 
Keep your head down because a partner is breathing fire and it won't take much to make them lose their temper with you. Is this because they're in a foul mood and want to take it out on everyone within shouting distance, or is it because you've done something to annoy them? Be warned that you may not be as innocent as you think, so be prepared to apologize if necessary. Auspicious colours are dark red and khaki. Lucky numbers are 32 and 61.
 
Are you on top of all your financial arrangements or have you let them slide recently? This is a super opportunity to make sure you're up to date with all your bills and credit card statements.

Ideal colours are fuchsia and mango. Lucky numbers are 19 and 78.
 
This is the perfect day for getting involved in a group activity of some sort, whether it's a club or a social gathering. You'll soon find that you're taking the lead, even if it isn't usually your role. Maybe you'll be asked to take a more active part in the group, or you'll decide that it isn't getting anywhere in its current form and it needs your guidance. That's fine, but don't tread on anyone's toes. Strong colours are platinum and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 5 and 12.
 
It's a strange day and you're feeling rather irritable and nervy. Maybe you have to protect someone's feelings or it's not the right moment to let off steam? However, swallowing your anger won't make it go away so try to find some therapeutic ways to release the tension, otherwise you'll unconsciously wind everyone up and start a fight that way. Soothing colours are aqua and peach. Lucky numbers are 10 and 78.
 
It's really important that you keep busy today, otherwise you'll soon start to feel rather jangled, restless and argumentative. You've got abundant nervous energy right now and you need to find positive ways of burning it off. Ideally, you should take some physical exercise or get involved in an all-consuming project that calls for all your concentration. Don't fritter away your energy on spats or tasks that you fail to finish. Liberating colours are ivory and topaz. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
 
You're very keen on accepting challenges today, because you're in a daredevil mood. It's a day for throwing caution to the winds and taking a few chances, especially where travel is concerned. For instance, you might decide to splash out on a adventurous holiday, or book up a weekend trip that involves doing something weird and wonderful. Liberating colours are plum and cream. Lucky numbers are 19 and 55.
 
Easy does it! You're full of energy today but you need to channel it in the right directions, otherwise you'll end up feeling frustrated and irritable. Even so, it's the ideal day for making a big dent in that pile of work that's waiting for you, or doing something physical and strenuous. What you won't like is being cooped up inside for too long, so make sure you get some fresh air. Fortuitous colours are mango and bright blue. Lucky numbers are 19 and 30.
 
You've got plenty of nervous energy right now and it's looking for constructive outlets, such as physical exercise or a creative project. Keep busy! You're feeling pretty raunchy and sexy, too, which could give you some ideas about other ways of burning off a few calories. If you've got children in your life, they'll certainly keep you on your toes right now. Ideal colours are magenta and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 34 and 14.
 
There's no stopping you today! You've been in a thoughtful mood so far this month but you've now changed tack and it's all about action and energy. Get as much physical activity as possible today otherwise you'll feel like a coiled spring, especially if you're cooped up in the same surroundings for most of the day. If your nervous energy starts to build up, so will your temper. Not good news! Dynamic colours are peacock blue and emerald green. Lucky numbers are 18 and 64.
 
Today you're only really interested in doing things that have some meaning for you. Anything else doesn't appeal very much and you'll have a tendency to do it with a bad grace. If you have to do things that don't float your boat, watch your temper and count to ten if you start to lose your cool. Even then, you'll be tempted to go off pop. It's one of those days when so many things have a tendency to rub you up the wrong way. Beneficial colours are silver and grape. Lucky numbers are 7 and 22.
 
If you're a typical Virgo you're usually fairly patient, but that isn't the case today. It's one of those days when people have an uncanny knack of getting under your skin and irritating the life out of you. What's more, the better you know them the more annoying you'll find them. It's a case of familiarity breeding contempt, so count to ten before going off pop. Then, if you're still angry, you can say so. Soothing colours are silvery green and lemon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 74.
 
Take a deep breath because it's one of those days when you have to navigate your way around a long list of interruptions, disruptions and irritations. Unfortunately, the more rigid or hectic your schedule is, the more likely things are to go wrong. Do your best to plan for these emergencies and difficulties, such as allowing extra time for journeys or not arranging your appointments back to back. Empowering colours are blackberry and cream. Lucky numbers are 8 and 44.
 
It's just the day for making contact with friends, especially if they live a long way away or you haven't seen them for a while. Give them a ring, send them an email or write a long, chatty letter and renew your connection. This is also a brilliant day for taking part in a group activity, such as visiting a club that you belong to or getting together with some kindred spirits. You'll have a whale of a time. Advantageous colours are honey and banana. Lucky numbers are 14 and 76.
 
If you're a typical Aquarian you're usually quite sociable, but today you definitely prefer your own company. It will do you good to spend some time by yourself, especially if you've had more than enough social activity during the past few weeks. If you're working on something important, you'll prefer to be left to your own devices so there's no danger of someone interrupting your train of thought. Fortunate colours are sable and pink. Lucky numbers are 8 and 13.
 
Friends are terrific company right now because it will do you good to be with some kindred spirits. Talking to them will help you to sort out any problems that you're currently wrestling with and get them into perspective. This is also a brilliant day for taking part in a group activity. Don't be surprised if you're asked to take the lead in some way. Favourable colours are treacle and pale orange. Lucky numbers are 7 and 28.
 
Cheer yourself up by making some exciting plans that you can look forward to. For instance, you might decide to arrange a visit to a friend who lives far away, or you could start thinking about where to go for your next holiday. Even getting together with someone who makes you laugh will make a big difference to your mood, and keep those January blues at bay. Ideal colours are silvery grey and lilac. Lucky numbers are 36 and 48.
 
Whatever you're doing today, it's important that you keep up your social and family contacts. That might mean ringing a friend after work or finding the time for a cup of coffee with one of the family. A little tact and diplomacy goes a long way now, so don't forget to smile at your neighbours or pass the time of day with the person standing next to you in the bus queue. You'll feel better for it. Favourable colours are treacle and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 38 and 64.
 
You're in the mood to do some shopping today, so maybe it's a good excuse to investigate the January sales. It's a great day for tracking down bargains with a domestic or family theme, so snap up some children's clothes or some household equipment at a knock-down price. You'll also get a kick out of being with some of your nearest and dearest. Vibrant colours are blueberry and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 10 and 8.
 
This is the ideal day to write important letters, pay bills and generally make sure you're up to date with all financial and business matters.

Fortunate colours are burnt orange and passionfruit. Lucky numbers are 30 and 59.
 
Honeyed words fall from your lips with no trouble at all today, so make the most of this silver-tongued time while it lasts.

And if you're with someone special, you'll have them eating out of your hand. Opportunistic colours are butterscotch and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 10 and 71.
 
A great day for immersing yourself in local activities. You might want to lend your services to a neighbourhood project, especially if you hope to increase your social life at the same time.

It's making contact with one another that counts right now. Fortunate colours are champagne and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 2.
 
You take life seriously today and will much prefer to do things that have some meaning for you than to fritter away your time on activities that you can take or leave.

Favourable colours are magenta and cream. Lucky numbers are 23 and 13.
 
This is a brilliant day for taking care of mundane chores and financial matters, such as paying regular bills or doing the household shopping.

Fortunate colours are ochre and navy. Lucky numbers are 28 and 22.
 
This is a marvellous day for getting on with chores and those other little jobs that need your attention. You'll soon get into the swing of them and will feel very pleased with yourself when they're all out of the way. If you've got the time, it's a good idea to have a raid on the fridge and food cupboards, clearing out anything that's passed its sell-by date or which is looking a bit iffy. Dynamic colours are jade and sepia. Lucky numbers are 31 and 7.
 
Life has a few surprises in store for you today, especially if you're trying to keep something under wraps.

If you're out shopping you might be tempted to buy something unusual on the spur of the moment. Ideal colours are sable and aqua. Lucky numbers are 35 and 30.
 
You need a change of scene! Even a short respite will help you to feel more relaxed, so try to have as many breaks during the day as possible. Ideally, you should visit somewhere that stimulates your brain and fills you with enjoyment, especially if it's unusual in some way. If you can afford it, you'll jump at the thought of booking a holiday or long weekend away. Auspicious colours are hazelnut and oyster. Lucky numbers are 2 and 6.
 
Don't judge people by their appearances today. You may think that a certain person looks as though they belong to a bygone age but they could have some very sound advice for you right now, especially if it concerns your finances or something that means a lot to you. So hear them out and then think about what they said before deciding that it can't possibly have any relevance for you. Beneficial colours are green velvet and mandarin. Lucky numbers are 10 and 22.
 
Looking for a change from your normal routine? You're easily bored today so try to introduce a few surprises to keep you on your toes.

There could be a nice surprise connected with a member of the family or your home, so be prepared. Auspicious colours are coffee and jade. Lucky numbers are 33 and 67.
 
The past few days have been interesting, to say the least, so do yourself a favour and let off a little steam this Wednesday.

Being spontaneous in unfamiliar surroundings will soon get you feeling more like your old self. Soothing colours are oyster and lilac. Lucky numbers are 12 and 40.
 
Thoughts and feelings are bubbling up from your subconscious today, putting you in a restless and excitable mood. You're longing to do things slightly differently from usual, especially if your life is normally quite predictable.

Lucky numbers are 24 and 30.
 
You're in the mood for some lively conversation today, especially if you're chatting to a loved one. Be prepared to talk about all sorts of unusual topics or to hear something you hadn't bargained for.

Beneficial colours are russet and ochre. Lucky numbers are 28 and 41.
 
The past few days have been full of highly charged emotion, but there's some relief in sight now.

Lucky numbers are 11 and 78.
 
Do your best to be open to new ideas and challenges today because they'll liven up your world in all sorts of ways you can't possibly anticipate.

So grab opportunities and see what happens next. Propitious colours are almond and agate. Lucky numbers are 10 and 9.
 
It's very easy to get stuck in a rut when dealing with partners and friends. You know how it is, they say something and you always react in the same way. Well, this is a good day for altering the way you react, especially if your usual response causes bad feeling or tension. For instance, if someone often winds you up, try to respond differently for once. It could be a revelation. Fortunate colours are dark brown and golden honey. Lucky numbers are 32 and 6.
 
It may only be the 5th of January, but you're already starting to feel rather restless and bored. Try to do something that will liven up your day, such as meeting a friend in your lunch hour or arranging to get together with some mates after work. If you aren't at work, it will do you good to take the initiative in something or to have a complete departure from your usual Wednesday routine. It could introduce you to someone very interesting. Auspicious colours are persimmon and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 27 and 23.
 
You need to liven up the day, especially if you don't have anything exciting planned.

On the other hand, if your daily routine is really getting you down, it's time to think how you can jazz it up on a more permanent basis. Harmonious colours are apricot and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 12.
 
It's time for some straight talking. In fact, you won't have any patience if you suspect that someone is shilly-shallying or trying to fudge the issue with you, and you'll take great delight in picking plenty of holes in their arguments. Your brain is operating with razor-sharp accuracy, but do your best to resist the temptation to cross-question others as though you're in a court of law. Favourable colours are dark brown and ivy green. Lucky numbers are 21 and 28.
 
You're in an inquiring frame of mind today, making you look for answers to the questions that are buzzing around inside your head. You're especially interested in domestic and family matters, but that could mean you step on a few toes if you ask the wrong questions or seem too inquisitive. At some point it will help to think about your own past and lay a few ghosts to rest. Steady colours are sunflower yellow and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 24 and 10.
 
You're very aware of all the tasks and chores that are awaiting your attention. In fact, they seem to be dogging your footsteps and filling you with guilt the longer you leave them.

Beneficial colours are peach and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 63.
 
If you're a typical Scorpio you have good money sense, and this is a great day for putting it into practice. If you suspect you spent too much money over the festive season, this is when you should grit your teeth and find out exactly how bad the damage is. Alternatively, if you've got a query about a financial matter, you'll be inspired to get to the bottom of it and find out what's going on. Fabulous colours are scarlet and navy. Lucky numbers are 40 and 29.
 
Someone is determined to get to the bottom of a mystery today, so don't be surprised if you find yourself on the receiving end of some penetrating questions.

Favourable colours are grape and ginger. Lucky numbers are 2 and 7.
 
You're intrigued by what a friend is up to today and you won't relax until you've got to the bottom of it. The trouble is that you probably won't be able to do this unless you're a born detective, and you might offend your friend in the meantime. Rather than prying into things that don't really concern you, turn your attention to your hopes and wishes, and start thinking about how you can make them a reality. Relaxing colours are champagne and caramel. Lucky numbers are 9 and 29.
 
No matter what you have planned, find the time to think seriously and deeply about your long-term goals and ambitions. Map out your strategy for success in 2005, especially if you're working to a deadline. Write down your ideas or discuss them with someone you trust, but make sure you get plenty of breaks to avoid reaching the point where you can't see the wood for the trees. You don't want to get tunnel vision! Best colours are magenta and toffee. Lucky numbers are 7 and 12.
 
Be careful about looking too deeply into things this Tuesday because you may not like what you discover. For instance, if you're suspicious about someone's behaviour you might play detective and then learn a few things about them that you'd rather not have known about. Equally, it's important to mind your own business and not pry into other people's affairs if they are no concern of yours. You don't want any backlashes later in the month! Expressive colours are burgundy and pale pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 72.
 
Your thoughts are working overtime this Tuesday, giving you extra insight into some of your most important relationships.

Lucky numbers are 29 and 17.
 
Are you feeling churned up after everything that happened yesterday? If so, you need to carry out some self analysis so you get a better idea of what's been taking place. You may not be very happy at the prospect of sharing your thoughts with anyone else, perhaps because it's all too private, in which case it could help to confide in your diary or journal instead. Opportune colours are brilliant white and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 40 and 43.
 
You're filled with curiosity about the world today, sending you on a search for knowledge. It's a fabulous opportunity to embark on some sort of course or class so you can learn something new, or to brush up on a topic that you're already familiar with. But be warned - whatever you immerse yourself in today could really grab you, making it hard to think about anything else. Fortuitous colours are deep purple and silver. Lucky numbers are 29 and 23.
 
Yesterday it was your feelings that were intense and today it's your thoughts that want to go beyond the superficial. There's no fooling you right now because you'll spot anything bogus or inaccurate in no time at all. However, this may make you rather uncompromising when dealing with others, so try to be tactful whenever possible. You don't want to upset anyone. Ideal colours are jade and crimson. Lucky numbers are 36 and 49.
 
Your emotions run deep today, making you much more sensitive than usual. You're feeling everything very acutely so you could overreact to things that you normally take in your stride. Nevertheless, you're determined to immerse yourself in your emotional life right now, and quite right too, because it will have a massive impact on you. It might even transform your life in some way. Beneficial colours are olive and teal blue. Lucky numbers are 17 and 46.
 
Watch out if this is your first day back at work because you really aren't in the mood for it. In fact, the prospect of it is making you feel grumpy and bad-tempered, and possibly even a bit sulky. So what's bugging you, and what can you do about it? Is it because you're feeling resentful for some reason, or because you're worried that a secret is about to be exposed? If so, don't take out your bad mood on people who happen to be innocent bystanders. Reserve your ire for the people who deserve it! Calming colours are pink and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 12 and 24.
 
Put on your kid gloves because you're going to need them when dealing with loved ones this Monday. Maybe it's because everyone's back at work or they're suffering from the after-effects of too much food and drink, but whatever's wrong you seem to be on the sharp end of it. Mind you, you aren't exactly the soul of diplomacy yourself today, are you? It will be a miracle if you get through the day without having a spat or two. Fortuitous colours are hazelnut and avocado. Lucky numbers are 19 and 10.
 
The vexed subject of money threatens to come between you and certain people this Monday. The post may have brought some unpleasant news, such as a credit card bill that you find hard to believe, or a bank statement that can only be read while sitting down. Try not to take your anguish out on others, nor to blame them for your own extravagances. Fortunate colours are burgundy and gold. Lucky numbers are 7 and 12.
 
Maybe you've spent too much time cooped up at home over the past few days, or you've had too much family togetherness, but you're feeling rather rattled and frazzled this Monday. It will be tempting to fly off the handle, especially if you think someone is getting to you, but try not to make mountains out of molehills. You need to let off steam but you also need to know where to draw the line. Beautiful colours are mauve and salmon. Lucky numbers are 18 and 9.
 
You're being awfully bossy and dictatorial today Aries. If so, what's going on? You need to call the shots or show someone who's boss, but try not to take things too far and throw your weight around. Nevertheless, this is the perfect day to show your natural authority and to make things happen. Provided you don't go over the top, of course! Fortuitous colours are amber and dark green. Lucky numbers are 37 and 45.
 
If you're back at work today you'll want to do your best and make a good impression on bosses and superiors. You stand a great chance of doing this but take care that you don't become so keen on getting a pat on the back from them that you actually turn them against you. If you're in a position of power yourself, use it wisely and tactfully today to avoid getting someone's back up or attracting accusations of favouritism or bias. Beneficial colours are caramel and claret. Lucky numbers are 6 and 1.
 
Take it easy because you don't have much patience today. Ideally, you should have some time to yourself because that's the best way of keeping out of hot water and avoiding trouble. There's also a chance that you might hear something that's supposed to be a secret and which doesn't exactly have you jumping for joy when the cat is let out of the bag. Fortuitous colours are opal and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 8 and 34.
 
You're caught up in some very intense and powerful emotions this Monday, and they'll have a tremendous impact on you. Close relationships are likely to be affected, perhaps when you have a profound encounter with a special person. Some of the emotions that get stirred up may not feel very comfortable. You may not want to act on them, but you don't want to smother them, either. Favourable colours are peach and banana. Lucky numbers are 7 and 69.
 
Yesterday's difficult mood has triggered all sort of emotions that need to be sorted out. Maybe it would help to confide in someone you trust, so you can get everything out of your system, or perhaps you'd prefer to be left to your own devices for a while. The thing is not to brood, but instead to look deep into your heart so you can find out what's wrong and then gain some insight into how to fix it. Simply acknowledging the problem will help. Beneficial colours are fuchsia and cream. Lucky numbers are 3 and 24.
 
You're very sure of yourself, and convinced that you know what's best for the people around you, which is a difficult combination today. It could easily make you seem rather bossy and dictatorial, especially if others don't like what you're saying to them. Do your best to tone it down unless there's no way round it, otherwise you'll have a mutiny on your hands. Beneficial colours are gold and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 2 and 54.
 
Your feelings for a certain person become even more intense and passionate than usual today.

No matter what the circumstances, what happens between you right now will be very memorable. Passionate colours are passionfruit and sable. Lucky numbers are 17 and 4.
 
A hobby or favourite pastime has plenty of appeal this Sunday, especially if you're starting to crave a little time on your own.

If you're a typical Taurean you have a strong practical streak, and it definitely makes itself known this Sunday.

If you're worried about various tasks and chores that you haven't carried out recently, get them out of the way now so you can relax. Uplifting colours are burgundy and lavender. Lucky numbers are 40 and 7.
 
Take care today because you're feeling very sensitive and vulnerable, which puts you on the defensive. Right now it feels as though people are out to get you, perhaps by making heavy-handed comments or reminding you of past misdemeanours. Is that what's really going on or are you reading too much into the situation? Do your best to keep some sense of perspective otherwise you'll really upset yourself. Fortunate colours are lime and crimson. Lucky numbers are 21 and 61.
 
The topic of money threatens to cause ructions between you and a loved one today, so take care. Maybe you object to someone's idea of what's good value, because you think they're wasting their money on rubbish, or they tell you not to buy something because they don't like it. Things could soon escalate into a row, even over something trivial, especially if you're both busy avoiding the real reason for feeling so angry with each other. Fortuitous colours are champagne and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 22 and 31.
 
A certain person knows exactly what they want you to do and they'll make it very plain. Woe betide you if you choose not to accede to their wishes, even though you're perfectly entitled not to. It might be a boss who behaves in this bullying fashion or an older relative, but it's certainly someone who is hard to stand up to because of their position. Even so, you don't like being ordered about like this and you want to say so. But how? Fortunate colours are ochre and platinum. Lucky numbers are 21 and 40.
 
Take it easy! You're feeling tetchy and overwrought this Sunday, and liable to let things get under your skin in no time at all.

Having a tidy-up or throwing away things you no longer need is good therapy right now. Soothing colours are aquamarine and toffee. Lucky numbers are 27 and 59.
 
Once again you're happiest when left to your own devices. There are certain tasks that you need to get on with, and you'll appreciate being allowed to tackle them in private. At some point, you could have a serious conversation with someone much older than you, or you might confide in someone you respect and trust. If an elderly relative lives on their own, give them a ring or visit them because they'll appreciate it. Beneficial colours are azure and cream. Lucky numbers are 8 and 7.
 
You're keen to bring out the best in other people today, especially if that means concentrating on their good points and ignoring the negative ones. You might even do someone a favour by encouraging them to look on the bright side, but without being patronizing or insensitive. There could also be talk of making a trip to visit someone who lives far away. It may only be a pipedream at the moment but time will tell. Ideal colours are cinnamon and fawn. Lucky numbers are 30 and 62.
 
Festive times of the year have a nasty habit of bringing out the worst in people and you get a taste of this today. If a loved one has been stewing about something, they're now ready to get it off their chest with all the force of an Exocet missile. Or perhaps you've been nursing a few grievances of your own, and you've reached the stage where you can't keep them to yourself any longer. Fine, but don't turn a minor problem into a major drama. Vibrant colours are charcoal and champagne. Lucky numbers are 21 and 17.
 
People are very helpful and supportive today, and you're very grateful. Maybe a partner has some great suggestions for you or a friend makes you an offer you can't refuse.

You'll be happiest if you can be with one or two special people, rather than a whole room full of people you barely know, and even then you'll appreciate having some time to yourself.
