How appropriate that New Year's Eve should coincide with a New Moon! It's setting the stage for an exciting 2006 and inspiring you to make lots of changes as you greet the New Year. Today's New Moon will have a big impact on your relationships during the next two weeks, giving you the opportunity to improve a particular partnership, get a new alliance off the ground or simply enjoy spending more time with the people in your life. Fabulous colours are shimmering silver and emerald. Lucky numbers are 11 and 21.
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.
You enjoy showing a different side to your personality today. It might be dressing differently or doing something that's completely out of character. You might also meet someone who has an energizing and exciting impact on you, and who encourages you to see life from a completely new angle. This will be an intoxicating experience. Inspiring colours are caramel and cobalt blue. Lucky numbers are 4 and 43.
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.
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're in a playful mood and will have great fun if children are around because you'll dream up all sorts of enjoyable things to do with them. 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.
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. If you're doing some entertaining today you'll have a great time and will go out of your way to put everyone at their ease and make them feel welcome. Ideal colours are magenta and silvery grey. Lucky numbers are 26 and 52.
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 at your most organized and efficient today, which is just as well if you still have stacks of things to do. You make the best use of your time, particularly if you plan ahead so you can do things in the logical order. 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.
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.
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.
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.
As the festivities get ever closer, you're starting to feel slightly panic-stricken. Instead of putting all your energy into worrying, you'll do much better if you can channel it into productive activities. Make lists of everything you still need to do and if necessary be prepared to lower your standards slightly, especially if it's a toss up between doing that and having a nervous breakdown. Ideal colours are pastel green and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 38 and 16.
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. Try to keep your reactions under control if someone starts to wind you up, perhaps by telling you things that are designed to get a rise out of you. Keep your sense of humour, Cancer! Fortunate colours are sable and silver. Lucky numbers are 20 and 38.
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 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.
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.
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.
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 lovely day for being with people whose company you always enjoy. They don't have to be your loved ones or your best friends, although it will be a bonus if they are. And if you can't be with the people you want to see, make the most of whoever happens to be around. Make an effort to bring them out of themselves and to appreciate them for who they really are, even if you aren't normally very keen on them. Favourable colours are golden brown and russet. Lucky numbers are 20 and 10.
If you were busy sorting out paperwork or other detailed information in November and then had to put the whole thing to one side, you can get started on it again from today. And it will go a lot more smoothly, too, which is good news. Do your best to keep track of complex details and to write down vital pieces of information rather than hoping that you'll remember them. You might not! Stabilising colours are pastel pink and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 3 and 19.
Is it your imagination, or is someone being demanding today? They want to spend lots of time with you and will resent it if you can't be with them, or perhaps they're feeling lonely and want to be pampered. It's certainly a good day for being with older friends and relatives, and for making them feel special. Inventive colours are violet and gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 68.
If there have been a few problems between you and a loved one recently, this is a marvellous day for putting matters to rights. Be prepared to say sorry if necessary, because a genuine apology will go a long way towards repairing the situation. If you're going to a party you'll enjoy chatting to the people who are there. You might even attract a few admirers in the process. Comforting colours are white quartz and sage. Lucky numbers are 35 and 52.
You're in the mood for an adventure, Cancer, so visit somewhere you've never been before. You don't have to trek halfway across the world to do it, either... Try a new restaurant or wine bar after work, visit a shop you've never been in until now or do something else that involves exploring uncharted territory. It will be fun! Favourable colours are sky blue and spring green. Lucky numbers are 6 and 40.
Feeling slightly anxious about all the things you have to do before Christmas? Get yourself organized and write lists of everything you still have to do. If necessary, rope in someone to give you a hand or decide to scale down your plans especially if they were rather ambitious to begin with. If you get really fraught, do something physical to work off all that angst. Inspirational colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 29 and 77.
You're in a dreamy, relaxed mood today, making you very reluctant to do anything that involves too much hard work or effort. You'd much rather take life easy and do as little as possible. Can you manage that or will you have to fit it in around your duties and obligations? Someone is very kind towards you. Take note so you can return the favour at some point. Fortunate colours are butterscotch and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 34 and 71.
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. If you have to sort out a problem connected with a joint account, tax matter or credit card, get to grips with it today while you're in the mood. 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.
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. With luck there won't be any harm done, but beware of taking more exercise than you're used to or you might feel stiff and achy tomorrow. You should also be careful about overspending if you're going shopping. Passionate colours are mango and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 40 and 56.
This is a lovely day for being with some of your favourite people. You're feeling sociable and chatty, and happy to mix and mingle as much as possible. It's a wonderful excuse to go to a party or to throw one of your own, even if you don't do anything more ambitious than invite a few friends over to your place. By the way, if you need to talk your way out of a tricky situation you should do it today. Fortunate colours are cornflower blue and sunflower yellow. Lucky numbers are 40 and 72.
The Stars puts you in a very efficient and practical frame of mind today, eager to get on with anything on your to-do list. Do it to the best of your ability, so you don't have to repeat your actions because they weren't good enough first time around. If you're at work today, you'll be asked to take care of a financial matter. Favourable colours are mahogany and silvery brown. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.
It's easy to let things get to you today, especially if they're the sort of trivial details that you'd usually shrug off. Right now, they seem to have the knack of really getting under your skin. Try not to brood about all this, nor to feel that the world is against you, simply because things aren't going your way. Don't let yourself lose your sense of humour, Cancer! Advantageous colours are dark gold and peach. Lucky numbers are 19 and 38.
Today's New Moon is urging you to pay attention to your health during the next couple of weeks. This may not be very good timing if you're anticipating a December full of eating and drinking too much, but maybe you should be a little kinder to your body than usual by not going over the top. You might also be inspired to liven up your daily routine if it's starting to get you down. Beneficial colours are cocoa and dark green. Lucky numbers are 40 and 55.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. You might also have a disappointment or muddle over a forthcoming social event, so do your best to iron out the facts whenever possible, and don't imagine that other people will automatically know what you mean if you don't spell things out. Energising colours are chocolate and moonlight blue. Lucky numbers are 36 and 50.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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're in a dynamic and lively mood today, with plenty of energy to help you sail through the day. You'll have a particularly good time if you're with friends and partners, and there will be a fantastic atmosphere between you. If you've been wondering whether to make a play for someone who's been a friend until now, this might be the day to make your move. Positive colours are platinum and ochre. Lucky numbers are 4 and 48.
Today's Full Moon has a big impact on your friendships and long- term plans during the next two weeks. If you wire annoyed with someone yesterday you'll be irritated by them during the coming fortnight, in which case you'll have to do something about it. This will also be a good opportunity to reassess your hopes and dreams for the future, and to decide whether they're still valid or whether they need some adjustments. Harmonious colours are cobalt blue and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 13 and 3.
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. Try not to take out your bad mood on people who don't deserve it or who are simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. It's not fair on them! Positive colours are aquamarine and jade. Lucky numbers are 3 and 4.
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. If you can spare the time you'll enjoy immersing yourself in a favourite hobby or leisure activity. Fortunate colours are copper and aqua. Lucky numbers are 20 and 56.
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. This is also a lovely day to lend your support to someone who's struggling at the moment or who needs a shoulder to cry on. 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.
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 might have met this person through a chance encounter or through what can only be described as synchronicity. Beneficial colours are burgundy and silver. Lucky numbers are 26 and 16.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The next few weeks are a wonderful opportunity to be with other people. It certainly isn't a good time to be by yourself because teamwork, in whatever form it takes, will be so much more enjoyable and satisfying than working solo. If you've been feeling lonely lately, you should make an effort to welcome more people into your life or to patch up your differences with a certain someone. Positive colours are mushroom and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 19 and 27.
This is a very productive day, especially if you're trying to solve a problem or you've got a long list of things to do. You're in a fix-it mood, so maybe you should start thinking about how to sort out the difficulties that were bugging you yesterday. If you're at work you'll take pride in doing a good job and being efficient. Adventurous colours are amber and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 40 and 11.
Look after yourself today because your mood has taken a sudden nosedive, leaving you feeling rather anxious and morose. You're also indulging in your favourite habit of worrying about something.

Whatever's wrong, you need to find some constructive answers. Communicative colours are jade and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 27 and 35.
The New Moon brings you good news, because it shines on enjoyment during the coming fortnight. There's good news connected with a love affair or a child.

Ideal colours are pistachio and banana yellow. Lucky numbers are 15 and 22.
You're in a very jolly and gregarious mood, Cancer and keen to have a good time. You'll enjoy yourself, thanks to your positive attitude and a determination to have fun, come what may! Even if life is pretty difficult for you at the moment you'll still manage to rise above your problems right now. Auspicious colours are baby blue and honeycomb. Lucky numbers are 25 and 4.
It's Halloween and you're feeling good. If you're planning a Halloween party you have to allow plenty of time to get ready, because you aren't in the mood to rush around like a headless chicken in a race against the clock. Instead, you need to be relaxed and to take your time. Fortunate colours are electric blue and electric green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 52.
Introduce a little excitement into your life today, especially if it's been rather humdrum recently. If your Sundays always follow the same pattern, today you're ready to do something completely different, yet without disrupting other people's arrangements in the process. How about visiting somewhere you've never been to before? You're in the mood to explore and take a few modest risks. Naughty colours are khaki and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 18 and 50.
Think about your health and your daily routine today. Are they okay, or do you need to make some changes to them? It's time to take action; do so now while you're in the right frame of mind.

Powerful colours are black and white. Lucky numbers are 7 and 1.
You have plenty of energy and enthusiasm today, especially when it comes to thinking about your plans for the future. You're determined to give them your best shot and you're eager to get started.

Beneficial colours are spring green and bronze. Lucky numbers are 17 and 67.
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.

The mighty planet Jupiter moves signs today; good news for you, Cancer, because he enters the part of your chart that relates to love, laughter and self-expression. This adds up to increased happiness, contentment and satisfaction during the coming year. If you've been single recently or your love life hasn't been much fun, all that will soon change if you respond to the opportunities that will be coming your way. And existing relationships will blossom, bringing you increased joy. Fantastic! Ambitious colours are bright red and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 19 and 57.
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. Okay, have your say, but don't spoil the impact of your words by going on and on, or by interfering in matters that are none of your business. 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.
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.
The coming four weeks will be full of laughter, happiness and love, so you've got plenty to look forward to.

It will also be a wonderful opportunity to explore your creativity. Auspicious colours are tangerine and dark blue. Lucky numbers are 19 and 37.
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.

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 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.
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.
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.
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.
There's a Lunar Eclipse today, which means your career and long- term goals will be going through some changes during the next few weeks.

Propitious colours are pastel yellow and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 37 and 15.
You're keen to get on well with whoever happens to be around today, and you'll be very successful at it. If you're at work you'll be chatty and chummy with workmates and customers, and will do your best to put them at their ease. It will help if you can find something in common with them, because that will be a bond between you. Expressive colours are sable and toffee. Lucky numbers are 11 and 27.
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. Try not to brood on things you can't change, or imagine the situation is worse than it really is. Auspicious colours are cream and sable. Lucky numbers are 24 and 55.
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. You may not even like this person, yet they still give you thrills every time you look at them or talk to them. What's going on? Will this attraction last? 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.
Your brain is working along very inventive lines today, so enjoy yourself. You can dream up a brilliant creative plan for your next holiday. Try not to feel hidebound by convention or tradition when you're doing this, and be prepared to depart from the true, tried and tested if you feel like it. Careful colours are rose and persimmon. Lucky numbers are 24 and 78.
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. Try not to get involved in a slanging match unless you really can't help yourself. 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
It's a great day for making plans, especially if they're connected with home and family. Domestic bliss is the main theme at the moment, so concentrate on it whenever you can and see the changes that happen as a result. You've got some big ideas today but bear in mind that not all of them may see the light of day, especially if they're very ambitious. Positive colours are silver and gold. Lucky numbers are 26 and 51.
You're feeling good! You're in a very upbeat and gregarious mood, and you have the feeling that everything is going your way. Even if life is rather difficult at the moment you'll get a breather from your current problems, which will come as a big relief. Speaking of 'big', you could be tempted to eat more than usual right now, so watch out if you're supposed to be on a diet. Fortunate colours are scarlet and charcoal. Lucky numbers are 9 and 11.
Today's partial Solar Eclipse will have a big impact on your home life during the next few weeks, so don't underestimate its power. This is a fabulous opportunity to make some changes to your home life, especially if you want them to be long-lasting and significant. You may not have any influence over some of these changes, such as the arrival of a new member of the family, but do your best to make them as positive an experience as possible. Expressive colours are ivory and mahogany. Lucky numbers are 12 and 73.
You're in a much more positive mood today, so make the most of it. This is a marvellous day for doing some constructive thinking about your financial situation and also about your domestic life. Maybe the two are related at the moment, and you need to work out how much some home improvements will cost or you're contemplating a house move. Discuss your thoughts with people who will listen and give you some input. Auspicious colours are dark red and ebony. Lucky numbers are 5 and 17.
It's a tense day because you're taking everything so seriously. What's more, you're under a lot of pressure right now and it's starting to show. So what's going on? Maybe someone has very high expectations of you and they're making you feel guilty if you don't fulfil them, or perhaps you're resentful of all the chores you've got to do when you'd rather be out enjoying yourself. Whatever is wrong, try not to make heavy weather of it because that won't help. Auspicious colours are fire opal and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 12 and 41.
You long to run wild today. The very thought of restrictions and routines is enough to make you want to scream, so try to introduce as many changes to your usual Friday schedule as possible. Ideally, you should introduce these changes before you're climbing the walls, to avoid any possibility of causing trouble simply to amuse yourself. Liberating colours are dark purple and rich gold. Lucky numbers are 25 and 22.
Use your imagination Cancer, especially when thinking about your finances and about your family.

Fortunate colours are lemon and sky blue. Lucky numbers are 23 and 21.
Home is where your heart is today, so surround yourself with comfortable and comforting objects and people whenever you get the chance. You'll be particularly happy when you're with special members of the family. If you've been thinking about moving house, this is a good day to review your options and to check that your budget is still realistic. Beneficial colours are salmon pink and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 2 and 20.
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.
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.
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.
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.
If you're going shopping today you'll have a real eye for a bargain. You certainly won't want to waste your money on anything that you consider to be frivolous or unnecessary, and you'll want every penny to count. If you're going food shopping you'll be able to sniff out a bargain at fifty paces, although you still won't be seduced into buying things just for the sake of it. There are no flies on you right now, Cancer! Stable colours are dark red and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 21 and 4.
You're a home loving soul and you're ready to prove it over the next four weeks. Gather your family around you, whether they're blood relations, your friends, colleagues or pets, and enjoy their company. You won't want to stray too far from home if you can possibly avoid it because you're much more comfortable in familiar surroundings right now than in strange ones. Divine colours are ginger and jade. Lucky numbers are 13 and 23.
If you're a typical Cancerian you're often slightly conservative and reserved, but no one could accuse you of behaving like that today. Instead, you're ready to let your hair down and be a bit of a madcap. Why not? It will do you good to do things on the spur of the moment and you're hardly likely to lose all control and end up doing something really silly. Auspicious colours are silver and coffee. Lucky numbers are 16 and 56.
Your thoughts turn to the past today. This means you'll be on familiar ground, because you belong to a sign that likes to spend quite a lot of time thinking about things that have happened to you. You could feel nostalgic sometimes, which might prompt you to get in touch with people you haven't seen in a long while. How about organizing a reunion with some of them? Fortunate colours are pineapple and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 14 and 29.
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. They don't mean anything by it but you'll long to cut them down to size somehow before they float away on a pompous little cloud of self-importance. Whatever you do, don't try to beat them at their own game. Keep your feet on the ground! Harmonious colours are bronze and platinum. Lucky numbers are 38 and 5.
Today's Full Moon is warning you to pay attention to the truth during the coming fortnight. You'll have to sort out fibs from facts, and it won't always be easy to tell the difference. There's also a possibility that you aren't being honest with yourself, in which case you're about to realize the importance of facing up to the truth. Beneficial colours are violet and cream. Lucky numbers are 6 and 76.
A friend's enthusiasm soon rubs off on you today, so don't be surprised if you get involved in a new interest as a result. You have a very open mind right now so you're receptive to all sorts of ideas that you might not always want to entertain. It's also a super day for arranging a forthcoming trip or long journey, especially if it's got adventurous overtones. Advantageous colours are mango and plum. Lucky numbers are 4 and 33.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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 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.
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.
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.
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. Fortunate colours are terracotta and ivory. Lucky numbers are 18 and 52.
Today's New Moon highlights communications during the next two weeks, encouraging you to take extra trouble about keeping in touch with other people. If you haven't heard from someone lately, this is a great opportunity to give them a ring or send them a letter. It's also an excellent time to upgrade your computer, television or mobile phone. Auspicious colours are nutmeg and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 17 and 17.
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.
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. The only snag is that you aren't in the mood to do any strenuous work unless it's enjoyable or creative at the same time. You're much more interested in eating, drinking and being merry. Uplifting colours are blonde and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 28 and 44.
Your mind is as sharp as a razor, so put it to good use. You have great reasoning abilities today, which are just what you need if you want to puzzle something out or show off your brainpower at work. If you're worried about a health or job problem this is a great day for doing some research. You'll enjoy tracking down the facts. Revealing colours are burnt orange and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 28 and 22.
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. If you're with close members of the family or one very special person you'll want your time together to be as perfect as possible. 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.
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. Ideally, you should take lots of little journeys, chat to plenty of people and introduce some enjoyable variety into your schedule. Even small interruptions will be welcome now. Exuberant colours are silver and hot pink. Lucky numbers are 14 and 34.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
You need a little emotional comfort today and the good news is that a certain person is only too happy to supply it. They're like a rock that you can lean on right now, so let them give you the moral and emotional support you so badly need. 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.
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. Do what you can to solve the problem with the least amount of ill feeling and hassle, while being honest about your own involvement and responsibility for what's happening. You can't pin all the blame on other people. Fortunate colours are pastel pink and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 35 and 16.
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. However, you aren't exactly being all sweetness and light either, are you? What's bugging you and what are you going to do about it? Advantageous colours are champagne and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 38 and 25.
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. Your relationship is about to improve and you'll gain a greater understanding of each other. Even if past hurts still rankle, isn't it time to bury the hatchet? Exuberant colours are silvery green and peach. Lucky numbers are 9 and 35.
You don't need me to tell you what a strange time you've been having with your finances recently. Communications have left a lot to be desired and there have been some tricky glitches to sort out. Well, I'm happy to announce that the worst is now over and you can start getting back to normal. Your first priority is to track down any missing payments and to sort out any monetary muddles that might put a black mark against your name with certain people. Auspicious colours are lilac and charcoal grey. Lucky numbers are 36 and 20.
It's a great day for getting on with whatever needs to be done, especially if you have a pile of work waiting for you or a long list of chores that need to be tackled. Rather than thinking of them as tedious duties, you're ready to give them your best shot and to enjoy yourself while you sort them out. If only every day were this productive and satisfying! Favourable colours are rust red and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 2 and 60.
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? If you're going out with friends, consider visiting somewhere you've never been before. You're also keen to demonstrate your individuality and you'll come up with some intriguing ways of doing it. Prosperous colours are violet and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 14 and 42.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. Do your best to marshal your thoughts over the next two weeks and work out the best possible strategy. If you need to adopt a new financial policy, start mapping it out now. Time really is money at the moment. Fortunate colours are dusky pink and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 16 and 43.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
You're feeling pretty good, Cancer. Things are going well and there's a lot to feel cheerful about. You're even prepared to forgive someone if they've upset you recently, and as far as you're concerned there will be no hard feelings. It's a lovely day for gathering your nearest and dearest around you and enjoying their company. Lively colours are obsidian and maple. Lucky numbers are 4 and 6.
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. If you're talking to colleagues or employees your current enthusiasm will be very infectious, so it's an excellent day for giving a pep talk or holding a team meeting. Favourable colours are dark grape and pearl. Lucky numbers are 6 and 15.
Once again you're feeling upbeat and happy. It helps that you're also feeling quite healthy and energetic. It will do you good to take some exercise, especially if your sweet tooth keeps reminding you about those biscuits sitting in the tin, or that bar of chocolate in your desk drawer. Yes, it's a day when the joys of eating are never far from your thoughts. Comforting colours are lime and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 14 and 9.
Life looks pretty good to you now, my lovely Crustaceans. You're feeling gregarious and cheerful, and even if things haven't been going very well for you lately you're prepared to make an effort to stay positive today. Ideally, you should get together with some of your favourite people and do something nice with them. You'll also enjoy exercising your creative talents. Exuberant colours are taupe and marmalade. Lucky numbers are 11 and 33.
The backdrop of your life starts to change from today as the Stars encourage you to pay more attention to your finances during the coming two years. This is your chance to strengthen your financial and physical security, which are two things that are very dear to your heart. You will also be encouraged to spend your money wisely and not to fritter it away. Beneficial colours are claret and copper. Lucky numbers are 23 and 29.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
You have tremendous charm today, so make the most of it. You're also able to put your feelings into words, which is very handy if you've got something important to say. There will be no danger of you being tongue-tied or lost for words, so grab this heaven-sent chance to speak from the heart. If you're doing any buying or selling today you'll be a very clever negotiator. Revealing colours are aquamarine and violet. Lucky numbers are 26 and 41.
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. In fact, your idea of heaven is to laze around at home, doing exactly what you want and not having to make any sort of effort for anyone. Mind you, it will be a different story when it comes to cooking or preparing food, because eating is pretty important to you right now. Uplifting colours are jade and caramel. Lucky numbers are 31 and 69.
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. At some point today you should try to sort out any official money matters that currently need your attention. Don't leave them until they reach crisis point. Expansive colours are honeycomb and crimson. Lucky numbers are 23 and 22.
This is a really important day because there's a New Moon and it will be lighting up your life during the next two weeks. This is the ideal opportunity for you to begin a new chapter in your life, perhaps by embarking on an exciting challenge or making a fresh start. It's also the perfect excuse to give yourself a makeover and evolve into a brand new you. Passionate colours are magenta and electric blue. Lucky numbers are 32 and 37.
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. You're very wrapped up in yourself this Tuesday, which makes it difficult for you to think about anyone else for long. As a result, you may be happier if you can be left on your own. Dynamic colours are smoky quartz and amethyst. Lucky numbers are 2 and 71.
You're eager to get moving and achieve something today, preferably while working by yourself so you aren't distracted by anyone. It's a great day for showing off some of your talents, because you'll be able to do so without being big-headed about it. Make the most of your current quiet confidence, and don't for one moment imagine that all your efforts are going unnoticed. Auspicious colours are burnished gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 30 and 20.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. If you're in charge of other people, whether they're your children or your employees, try not to come across as bossy and dictatorial, even if that's how you're feeling. Ideal colours are chocolate brown and shimmering gold. Lucky numbers are 35 and 43.
If you spent yesterday on your own you'll be eager to make up for it today and to get chatting to other people. In fact, you'll be quite a live wire, and everyone will enjoy having you around. You'll have no problems about putting your feelings into words, either, making it a great day for pouring your heart out to someone or confiding in your diary. Favourable colours are mahogany and skin tones. Lucky numbers are 9 and 54.
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.
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 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 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.
There's a Full Moon today, which will have a big impact on your relationships for the next two weeks. You can expect some changes in some of your partnerships, perhaps as the balance of power shifts or problems are resolved at long last. Do your best to keep calm and not let things get to you so they feel like a crisis or you turn them into a major drama. Fortunate colours are sky blue and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 3 and 16.
It's as though your own personal sun starts to shine today, and it will continue to fill you with confidence and energy for the next four weeks. This will be a wonderful time for acting on your own initiative whenever possible and also for pursuing some of your personal dreams. You'll shine like the star you are, so don't be modest, Cancer. Fortunate colours are taupe and crimson. Lucky numbers are 15 and 51.
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.
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.
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 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 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.
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.
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.
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.
Your ambitions get a massive boost from today, Cancer. This happy state of affairs will continue for the next few weeks. It's a great opportunity to press ahead with plans and activities that will get you noticed or enhance your reputation. 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.
During the next few weeks you'll be wrapped up in your own ideas and concerns. This is entirely as it should be now, but do your best not to take it to extremes, or some might think you've become completely self-obsessed and self-involved. 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.
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.
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.
This is an ideal day for being with people you love, because you're in such a caring, compassionate mood. You'll love lavishing time and attention on them, especially if they've been going through a bad time lately. You're in quite a private mood, so avoid strangers if you can help it. Close loved ones are more your cup of tea right now. Beautiful colours are mixed tones and dark onyx. Lucky numbers are 10 and 7.
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. It could be one of those days in which one catty remark leads to another, and another, unless you're strong-willed enough to stop indulging in tit-for-tat responses. But are you? Advantageous colours are blonde and pink velvet. Lucky numbers are 19 and 29.
Today's New Moon will be encouraging you to face up to some of your fears during the next couple of weeks. This is just what you need if you've been trying to sweep unpleasant thoughts under the carpet or pretend that something difficult isn't really happening. Once you can admit your fears to yourself you'll find the courage and energy to do something constructive about them. Steady colours are rose and obsidian. Lucky numbers are 6 and 33.
You're full of compassion and understanding towards others today and will find it easier than usual to put yourself in their shoes. It's the perfect day for having a heart-to-heart with someone you trust, when you really open up to one another. There may also be a strong telepathic thread linking the two of you, so you're immediately on the same wavelength. Propitious colours are lilac and black. Lucky numbers are 26 and 30.
You're in a very constructive mood today, which is great for getting things done or making your mark on the world. You can make a great deal of progress if you work hard now, so do what you can to get ahead. It's also just the day for arranging a forthcoming journey or trip, especially if you'll be travelling to somewhere with spiritual or educational links. Auspicious colours are white onyx and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 11 and 48.
Want to hear some good news? From today you embark on a fun- loving and enjoyable phase in which your popularity will soar and you'll have a great time. It will be a fantastic opportunity to enhance your image in some way, too, such as altering the style or colour of your hair or treating yourself to some flattering new clothes. They'll really get you noticed! Energising colours are spearmint and primrose. Lucky numbers are 13 and 33.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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'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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

This is a day for enjoying yourself! Soothing colours are azure and champagne. Lucky numbers are 8 and 54.
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.
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.
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.

Lucky numbers are 4 and 17.
Don't worry about the inauspicious date, because this looks like being a really good day for you.

Lucky numbers are 1 and 8.
Your thoughts turn to plans for the future from today, and you'll continue to think about them for the next two weeks.

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.
This is a great day for catching up with important paperwork, whether it's connected with your work or your dealings with officialdom.

Lucky numbers are 36 and 44.
Romance is in the air for the rest of May, putting you in a rather dreamy and sentimental mood.

Someone is very impatient and hasty, and they'll object loudly if they think anyone is being slow or dragging their heels.

Fortunate colours are jade and mushroom. Lucky numbers are 10 and 51.
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.

Sunny colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 31 and 26.
If you're trying to concentrate on something important today you'll do best if you can shut yourself away somewhere.

Lucky numbers are 9 and 15.
A certain person is getting awfully big for their boots, as you're about to discover.

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.

Ideal colours are ultramarine and bright yellow. Lucky numbers are 12 and 51.
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.

Lucky numbers are 25 and 27.
You're raring to go and you'll feel really frustrated if you can't do something interesting or unusual at some point.

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.

Lucky numbers are 19 and 15.
Don't mix money and friendship today unless you really want to be disappointed, ripped off or angry at yourself for being duped.

Fortunate colours are auburn and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 33 and 62.
Throw yourself into your social life today. Arrange to see some friends or make a date with your other half, and enjoy yourself.

Romantic colours are pale pink and sable. Lucky numbers are 4 and 61.
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.
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.

Lively colours are sunflower yellow and dazzling white. Lucky numbers are 38 and 59.
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.

Lucky numbers are 39 and 4.
Today's Lunar Eclipse will have a big impact on your love life during the next few weeks.

Exciting colours are dark purple and fiery red. Lucky numbers are 6 and 43.
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.

Ideal colours are bright red and jet black. Lucky numbers are 40 and 39.
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.

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.

Ideal colours are copper and violet. Lucky numbers are 9 and 45.
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.

Ideally, you should do something totally spontaneous and slightly madcap. Fortuitous colours are kiwifruit and dark gold. Lucky numbers are 30 and 71.
Hobbies, spare-time activities and group gatherings are all in the Stars during the next four weeks.

Lucky numbers are 35 and 23.
Money is a sore point today. It's also an opportunity for someone to lose their temper and create a stink.

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.
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.

Opportune colours are salmon pink and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 27 and 26.
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.

Fortunate colours are purple and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 9 and 37.
This is a fantastic day for rolling up your sleeves and getting on with whichever jobs require your attention.

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.
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.

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.

Expansive colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 24 and 51.
Things have been going really well for you so far this April but you start to doubt yourself today.

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.
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 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.
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.

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.

Lucky numbers are 20 and 16.
You're in a very easy-going and relaxed mood today, and you're eager to see the best in the people around you.

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.

Empowering colours are jade and ochre. Lucky numbers are 39 and 57.
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.

Fortunate colours are passionfruit and black. Lucky numbers are 18 and 14.
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.
Harsh words are never far away: you're easily angered, especially by silly little things that you'd normally take in your stride.

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.
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.

Harmonious colours are shell pink and platinum. Lucky numbers are 35 and 30.
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.

Beneficial colours are beige and avocado. Lucky numbers are 2 and 11.
You long for some excitement in your life today and it certainly looks that way, even if you aren't expecting anything to happen.

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.

Empowering colours are maroon and bronze. Lucky numbers are 19 and 30.
It's easy to get bogged down in petty details today, especially anything connected with bureaucracy, such as filling in an official form.

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.
Today's Full Moon highlights the current imbalance between the demands of your home and work.

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.
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.

Lucky numbers are 9 and 42.
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.

Fortunate colours are amber and ultramarine. Lucky numbers are 23 and 70.
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'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.

Favourable colours are silvery orange and lemon. Lucky numbers are 14 and 69.
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.

Be especially wary of signing important contracts during this time. Opportune colours are violet and ebony. Lucky numbers are 13 and 74.
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.

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.
Be careful, because someone could try to get you to do things against your will today.

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.

Lucky numbers are 22 and 4.
Today you're happiest if you can be left to get on with things at your own pace and by yourself.

Lucky numbers are 4 and 27.
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.
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.

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?

Harmonious colours are jade and aqua. Lucky numbers are 2 and 66.
A certain person has a lot to say for themselves today, especially if they're older than you or in a position of authority.

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.
Today's New Moon will have a rejuvenating effect on you during the next two weeks because it will fire you with enthusiasm for all sorts of exciting projects and new enterprises.

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.
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.

Auspicious colours are avocado and black satin. Lucky numbers are 31 and 65.
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.

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.

Favourable colours are rose and purple. Lucky numbers are 33 and 44.
You enjoy sticking to a familiar routine but today you long to break free from your usual schedule and do something completely different.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
You've got your head screwed on the right way this Sunday, making it a great day for reaching important decisions and working out plans of campaign. You'll manage to combine being sensible with being far- sighted, so you'll have the best of both worlds. This is also a super day for getting involved in any form of study or education, whether you're the teacher or the pupil. Beneficial colours are copper and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 32 and 78.
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. If you always eat the same sort of food, try experimenting with different ingredients or visit a restaurant that serves dishes you've never eaten before. Auspicious colours are chocolate and apricot. Lucky numbers are 18 and 72.
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.
There's a Full Moon today and it will be influencing your day- to-day activities during the next two weeks. It might inspire you to have a proper tidy-up at home, or to sort out that pile of paperwork you've been accumulating over the past few months. If there have been problems between you and a close relative or neighbour recently, try to tackle them out over the coming fortnight so you can put them behind you. Beneficial colours are maroon and white. Lucky numbers are 22 and 74.
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.
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. You'll enjoy having a lively discussion about what to do next, and even though a few sparks will fly they'll help to inspire you even further. This is also a great day for getting involved in a brain- storming session about an educational or travel matter. Ideal colours are kiwifruit and parchment. Lucky numbers are 20 and 1.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Today's New Moon will have a rejuvenating effect on you over the next two weeks, which is very good news if you've been feeling flat or lacklustre lately. It's also the perfect opportunity to get your finances under control, perhaps by applying for a credit card with a lower rate of interest or starting a regular savings scheme. In the months to come, you'll be very glad that you made the effort. Lively colours are tangerine and pineapple. Lucky numbers are 4 and 11.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Honeyed words fall from your lips with no trouble at all today, so make the most of this silver-tongued time while it lasts. If you've been waiting for the right moment to get in touch with someone who's always tricky, make contact with them now and they'll be much easier to deal with than usual. 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.
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.
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. There's only one thing for it - you may also have to cope with worries about someone's welfare or about your own health. Try not to blow everything out of proportion through sheer angst. Beneficial colours are peach and strawberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 63.
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.
Yesterday was all about having fun but today the accent is on getting yourself organized. Filled in the details in your new diary yet or tidied up after your New Year frolics? Then roll up your sleeves and get started. It will do you good to achieve something. You might even write down a few New Year resolutions while you're about it because right now you feel inspired and raring to go. Ideal colours are burnt orange and lemon. Lucky numbers are 19 and 29.
Happy New Year! It's a lovely start to 2005 for you because you're in a really good mood, even if you stayed up half the night. What's more, you're finding it easy to get along with the people around you, and you could even be inspired to do someone a favour at some point. If you've got the time, try to catch up with some of the people you didn't see over the Christmas break. Liberating colours are black velvet and pale gold. Lucky numbers are 37 and 4.
