Sat Mar 3: Enjoy Yourself

Good food, drink, beautiful clothes and a comfortable house are all important to your sense of well-being just now. There is tension in the air, but why not enjoy yourself?

Despite a retro Mercury (and a retro Mars), your mind is witty and sharp. Start your motors and aim for the stars! Advantageous colors are vermilion and silver. Lucky numbers are 1 and 2.

Fri Mar 23: Chop And Change

Lucky numbers are 17 and 21.

Sat Mar 24: Moderation

Lucky numbers are 9 and 27.

Sun Mar 25: Meaningful Encounters

Lucky numbers are 24 and 31.

Mon Mar 26: Stuck To The Grindstone

Your nose is firmly stuck to the grindstone as duty comes first. Pushing indulgences and pleasure activities to one side won't be a problem; as you will concentrate on becoming more efficient and better organized. Watch health since you could be a little over heated, even a little accident-prone at times. It will benefit you to give as much attention towards getting your body fit as you do towards work matters. Favorable colors are pale violet and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 12 and 17.

Tue Mar 27: Business Before Pleasure

This is not the time to be flinging yourself unreservedly into parties. Be resourceful, tackle whatever projects you have been pushing onto the back burner. With Saturn under pressure in your seventh house you may be wary of your emotions, feeling that what is around you is rather chilly or ungiving. The solution is to put business before pleasure. Businesslike colors are chestnut and blush. Lucky numbers are 71 and 4.

Wed Mar 28: Ideas Come Quickly

Use your energy and get into forward gear, Aries. Allow yourself to explore and be experimental. The Gemini Moon urges you to find the answers, so be open to inspiration.

Inspired colors are persimmon and rawhide. Lucky numbers are 26 and 34.

Thu Mar 29: Common Sense

Wise Rams are cautious now, not charging into situations without thinking them through first. Your confidence and courage have been given a cosmic boost. Use your willpower to overcome a power play and see the benefits that can come with something that at first just seems negative. Events bring valuable lessons, so stop feeling resentful, or blaming others for the position in which you find yourself. Use your common sense. Positive colors are malachite and mulberry. Lucky numbers are 6 and 37.

Fri Mar 30: Good Book

If you are a little wary of being on your own under the homeloving Cancer Moon, try finding someone nice you can wrap yourself around. Or failing that, just wear your most comfortable clothes and snuggle up in a comfortable armchair with a good book. It's easier than usual to concentrate on the tiny details as well as the broad sweep of any project. Remember not to overload yourself with too much work. Ideal colors are honeycomb and aqua. Lucky numbers are 42 and 35.

Sat Mar 31: Be Flexible

If you are too emotional, or even jealous at times, try to be flexible, Rams. Be open to communication, especially about concealed issues, but let your partner make the first move.
