Decide on a plan of action for dealing with whatever is troubling you. By taking the first step, you're finding your way out of a potential mess.

Taurus

April 20 - May 20

It's never too late to say you're sorry or to show someone that you still care. How about putting your heart out there this week? Being too busy or too angry with a loved one doesn't do any good. Nobody wins, and a relationship may end in tears rather than a hug. Swallow your pride, even if you believe you're right. There are always two sides to a story. Find out theirs.

Gemini

May 21 - June 20

Sacrifice is the name of the game this week. You might have to let go of your ego or a treasured occasion because the situation calls for compromise. Give and take is part of life, and we don't always get what we wish for - at least, not immediately. Be patient.

Try to fit in with plans that benefit everybody, rather than thinking exclusively of yourself.

Cancer

June 21 - July 22

Whatever it is, it's just not worth getting into a froth and temper about. That's your key lesson this week. We all get upset - some of us more often than others. Emotions are running high right now, even if you appear to be the picture of calm on the surface.

Take out your frustrations on a pillow or pavement and not on the ones you love.

Leo

July 23 - August 22

After a flurry of social or work-related activity, you need some serious downtime - and this means holing up in your room or going for long, solitary walks as often as possible. Resist getting caught up in conversations or events that could end up sapping your energy. Become your own best friend this week and rediscover why you're such a great person to be around.

Virgo

August 23 - September 22

Your head tells you that it's a good idea, but what happens if your heart is saying something completely different? We've spoken about intuition before: that little voice inside that tells you the truth, no matter how hidden or uncomfortable it is. Open your 'inner ears' this week and listen to what your very wise, mature self is trying to convey. You'll be surprised - but glad.

Libra

September 23 - October 22

Change is as much a part of life as brushing your teeth or eating breakfast. Why then, do we resist it when it pays us a visit? You like most aspects of your life and enjoy the fact that you pretty much know where you're going and what you want, most of the time. But things are going to be shaken up a little over the next few days. Welcome the fresh air blowing into your life - it's just what you need right now.

Scorpio

October 23 - November 21

Humans are a funny lot. We spend at least a third of our lives dreaming about what others have - and becoming jealous sometimes, too. You are rich in so many ways - friends, family and good fortune. The best way to make your life even better is to accept and be grateful for what you already have. Start a gratitude journal. Think of five things daily in your life that make you happy.

Sagittarius

November 22 - December 21

Decisions, decisions, decisions. If you feel like a rabbit caught in the headlights, blinded by all the choices you have, try not to worry. You have the ability to calm down and sort through all the options available. And if you'd only trust yourself, you'll find that you'll choose exactly the right path. The first step is believing that you already know the answer. Then the rest of the pieces will fall into place. Easy, isn't it?

Capricorn

December 22 - January 19

Relationships give you the biggest headaches this week - and the best opportunity to grow as a person. Our interactions with people bring some of life's greatest lessons. You tend to bury yourself in work and prefer to avoid confrontation, so this part of your life is often neglected.

Enjoy spending time with people and try to focus on what you can learn from them.

Aquarius

January 20 - February 18

You might be feeling split in two, with everybody and everything demanding your attention and energy. It's great to be popular and needed, but how about making your own health and well-being a priority for a change? Learn to say no. One small word, spoken sincerely and without anger, has the potential to move mountains for you. You can say yes again when you're ready. And only then.

Pisces

February 19 - March 20

Sometimes it's just not possible to see the light at the end of the tunnel - especially when you're super-busy and zipping along like an avalanche. Even if you're feeling insecure or unsure about a situation, be patient and let things happen naturally.

You don't need to do anything, really. Just go with the flow and quietly get on with your work and life. Things will sort themselves out in no time.
