Have a plan that's important to you? Stick with it, Aries. You may have so many demands on your time that you won't get much done if you spread yourself too thinly. If you know what you want, put everything else to one side and start working at it. Once your goal starts gathering momentum, it will be fine for you to relax and ease up a little. Until then, concentrate hard.

With the Sun syncing up with Saturn, a tricky situation might leave you perplexed, but you're not facing it alone. Loyal friends may step up without you having to ask. What seemed like a speed bump turns into a surprisingly smooth ride, thanks to their steady support and your calm determination. Let others lend a hand, as you won't lose control, you'll gain momentum.

Is your intuition urging you to be bold? It may be pushing you to accept an opportunity. The question is not so much whether you can do it, but why wouldn't you? A powerful line-up suggests that accepting this challenge could be very character building, as it will encourage personal growth. And even if daunting could soon see you aiming higher and doing very well.

A formal trip which could be for work, study or an event might turn out to be more interesting than expected. Amid the schedules and name tags, you may stumble into a connection that feels fated. A new friendship blooms, steady and supportive, offering just the kind of insight or encouragement you need. It's the start of something meaningful and mutually uplifting.

Who do you trust the most? You may be surrounded by people whose opinions vary greatly. Some might downplay your chances of success and tell you to take things slowly, while others could easily motivate you, leaving you eager to jump into a project and have a go. Bear in mind that you can change your mind more than once, so see this as a chance to experiment, Leo.

Like to be involved with a new project? It might not be what you think Virgo and could involve leadership skills such as insight and a willingness to make decisions that others won't like. When it comes to sussing out key people, you won't miss a trick though. You'll be able to zero in on their strengths and weaknesses and know how best to handle them, which gives you an edge.

Feeling empowered? It's time to get started on something that you may have only thought about. Now is your chance to do the groundwork so that you can build easily upon a strong foundation. A great idea may be too good to waste by not giving it its due. Plus, Venus in the sassy Aries could inspire you to melt the ice regarding someone who you sense you'd get along with very well.

The coming days can find you holding some intense conversations that could feel make or break. If you've dithered over a decision or wondered if you're doing the right thing, you'll be ready to do what it takes to find closure. And if it involves tough love or the need to move on from a difficult situation, you'll be ready. Still, there's no doubt that others could easily surprise you.

You'll be keen to get your place organised, but also to be more responsible around recycling and using eco-friendly household goods. Today's Sun/Saturn tie suggests you might also extend this to your lifestyle as a desire to eat healthily could encourage you to explore diets that will give you more energy and enable you to feel better in yourself. It's certainly worth a try, Archer.

A positive aspect involving the Sun and the sobering Saturn can inspire you to connect with others on your wavelength and to extend the hand of friendship. However, go easy where one person is concerned, as tempting though it may be to allow them to draw close, you could feel some reticence. Whatever the reason, you might feel moved to test their loyalty first, Capricorn.

Want something special for your home? Maybe it's a new armchair, mood-lighting or that gadget you've been eyeing. The urge to splurge is real, but Saturn advises you to be patient. Small steps and steady saving will get you there, and the satisfaction will be all the sweeter. If it's a whole new look, then research as well as putting money aside will smooth the way ahead.

You could find yourself thinking about a friend and wondering how they are. If so, the cosmos positively encourages you to connect and to do so soon. If you've missed the chance for an evening filled with conversation that allows both of you to talk openly and feel better for it then reaching out to them now could prove a very positive experience in more ways than one.
