Whether you turn out a cupboard, or rummage around in your mind, you'll find old, good ideas waiting to be dusted off and revisited. With Venus, love and pleasure, approaching the end of its visit to dreamy Pisces, if we're prepared to experiment with new possibilities, we can make life-enhancing choices with long-term benefits.

ARIES
The game of 'Chinese whispers' demonstrates how easily we miscommunicate with one another. Someone whispers a simple phrase into someone else's ear. They pass it on to the next person and the process continues until the message arrives at the last person. When they say it aloud, you can bet your bottom dollar that it's changed beyond recognition. Be clear about what you want today - and, just as importantly, make sure you pay close attention to what you're hearing. Clear communication leads to a great decision.
TAURUS
Thoughts are constantly whizzing around our minds. Half-formed ideas fly so fast we don't think about whether they're realistic or not. Some are optimistic, others are the opposite. Most of the time, we don't give them much attention. It's only when they get lodged in the back of our brains that we start taking notice. Which is probably a good thing. Dreams are delicate and, if we try too hard to catch them, there's a risk we'll over-analyse them, and write them off as 'impossible'. Go gently with one of yours today. It's a goer.
GEMINI
Making a firm commitment to do something is very different to wishing it would happen. The problem with wishing, is that we don't envisage having to invest much effort into making our dream manifest. No. We imagine that an invisible magic fairy is going to pass by and, with a wave of its wand, make it come true. Rather than waste any time waiting for the celestial forces to step up and get busy in your world today, it's time for action. You're perfectly positioned to give yourself the lucky break you've been looking for.
CANCER
We all think our way of doing things is best. We're so sure our perspective is right that the notion that somebody else could be correct is hard/impossible to compute. Even when we come across obstacles and challenges, we're not prepared to consider an alternative idea; the 'no gain without pain' theory reassures us that we're on the right path. But do we really need to martyr ourselves and suffer in the pursuit of our dreams? Be open to new ideas today. Someone in your world has the solution you're seeking.
LEO
If only solutions to problems and challenges were easy to find. But they're not. Sometimes, we find ourselves embroiled in tricky situations which are obviously going to get more and more complex before we stand a chance of sorting them out. You asked the cosmos for help a while ago. You wanted it to give you more of one thing and less of another. Although it might not be apparent to you, it's in the process of fulfilling your request. In the legacy of the New Moon, look out for signs of positive change. They're growing more obvious.
VIRGO
If you've watched any courtroom dramas, you know that legal representatives advise their clients how to act in order to make the best impression and get the most positive outcome. There are ways of telling a story that elicit more empathy. Even wearing a certain outfit can affect the jury. And an admission of guilt can lead to a shorter sentence. Although we all sometimes make excuses, we never escape the consequences of our actions. Don't be pulled into propping up someone's story today. Your integrity is precious.
LIBRA
How frustrating. You've started to make sense of a confusing situation, and guess what? Another challenge has appeared. How are you meant to know which issue to focus on? You can't be in two places at once. And without your input, it's hard to see how either challenge will resolve. As your ruler, Venus, prepares to change signs, it gifts you with the ability to see what's going on with a more light-hearted attitude. If you approach today with a smile, others will step up and relieve you of some of your responsibilities. Progress will follow.
SCORPIO
Despite what they say, it takes more than faith to move a mountain. If even a smallish hill is blocking our path (or our view) we're going to need heavy-duty equipment and people-power to shift it. So it's fortunate that the mountain you face isn't physically obstructing your path. And it's fortunate too, that you've got the self-belief (and skill) to be able to find your way around it. Have faith in yourself today. Trust that where there's a will there's a way. Fortune favours the brave. With courage and effort, you can surmount a problem.
SAGITTARIUS
We don't have to look far to find evidence of the inequality that exists in our world. So many things are unfair. And just because historically it's always been that way doesn't mean we shouldn't do our best to change things. If only the divine energy that created the cosmos could step in and sort things out. It's interesting that we find it easier to connect an idea of the 'divine' with things that go wrong rather than things that go right. If you focus on what's going well in your world today, you'll find a fair way to sort out a problem.
CAPRICORN
Challenges are much less daunting when we believe in our ability to deal with them. Actually, the moment we start trusting ourselves, they stop being challenges. It's about developing a strategy. Once we've got a plan, even if it involves taking baby steps, our stress levels drop. In the legacy of the New Moon, if you focus on the positive aspects of a tricky situation (you might have to look hard, but they're there), you'll find that the negative aspects lose some of their power. Then, your next move will be startlingly obvious.
AQUARIUS
Even great leaders make mistakes. We hold them to high standards; we expect them to be bold and courageous yet considerate and thoughtful. But it's a hard line to tread. And anyone in a position of authority is bound to experience moments of autocracy - it's an inevitable consequence of being in a position of power. Which is why someone in your world isn't doing a great job of leading by example. Could you do better? Maybe. If their actions are disadvantaging others, you're right to step in and offer your services.
PISCES
If we're feeling cold, we can just put on another layer of clothes. But if we get so used to feeling snuggly that we constantly keep ourselves wrapped up, what once felt delightfully toasty starts to feel normal. And if we want to replicate the snuggly effect, we need to put on even more layers. Of course, we need to take appropriate steps to protect ourselves. But we also need to keep things in perspective. As Venus prepares to move to a new celestial home, it leaves you with a warm, cosy glow. If you appreciate it, it will last.
