The Moon is exerting her influence powerfully, sensitising your feelings and motivating you to quick retort and action. You can be very responsive to those around you but at the same time you demand attention in return. Try not to let the impulsive side of your nature to hold sway, or it could result in some hasty speech or behaviour, and even if intentional, sharp words could sting. Use your abundant energy to get out with friends and family and enjoy some recreational time together - you will all feel the benefit.

By reflecting on the things and people that really mean the most to you, a happy realisation comes to your mind. You may have been taking all the warmth and affection in your life a little bit for granted. Although at first you might be tempted to keep these thoughts to yourself, why not spread a little of your happiness around and share these cordial feelings with those around you. It will make you feel good and it will brighten up someone else's day - so what's stopping you?

Friends and acquaintances are always important to you but perhaps your closeness to them is especially emphasised now. It is quite possible that certain conversations could be very intense and meaningful as you both acknowledge any underlying problems or difficulties that may have been building up. The only drawback is that you may find it difficult to keep to the original point as your mind is so active that you may well have some difficulty in keeping it on just one topic for any length of time, so keep alert.

The stimulus to work hard and achieve the professional or public goals you have set yourself is very prominent. Whether or not you function as part of a team, try to co-operate with others, and offer them the assistance and encouragement you in turn would like to receive. Although your instinctive reaction may be to put your own ideas across forcefully, a little consideration and reticence will go a long way towards keeping the atmosphere agreeable. This is a good time to research or study a subject that appeals to you.

This holds the promise of being a happy and constructive day when you can set your mind on ideals that inspire you. You are not content to skim the surface of subjects that interest you, you want to understand and absorb their deeper ramifications. Perhaps the mysteries of religion or philosophy will intrigue you, or otherwise the intricacies of the law or published might hold an attraction. But, whichever way your interest lies, go with it and do not let yourself be deviated off your chosen goal. Follow your dream.

Have you been thinking of extending your expertise or learning a new skill? If so, now is a good time to start. You are not a person to sit around idly, you'd much rather occupy your time with perfecting your own special aptitudes and gifts. Even if these activities have no direct bearing on your work at present, you derive a great deal of pleasure from developing your talents and dexterity, and you never know when you might be called upon to demonstrate your capabilities.

Your emotions are in a compelling and heightened state, especially with regard to a loved one or close personal friend. In this state of mind, it could be possible for objectivity to be difficult to achieve, and this being so, you might have to work hard to maintain your composure. However, with a little effort, any small irritations will soon fade as your usual optimistic and positive attitude once more come to the fore. Why not plan a jaunt together and this will soon intensify your enjoyment of each other's company.

The depth of your feelings know no bounds and you are sensitive to your own, and other people's needs and emotions. Close personal relationships, and perhaps in particular those, which have a sexual attraction, can be very intense, and have the potential to be passionate fiery and exciting. If you do not hold yourself back, and allow yourself to fully experience this intensity, then this could certainly turn out to be a day you will not want to forget in a hurry!

You will benefit most from joint endeavours and shared experiences - it is not a time to hide yourself away or go it alone. There are many ways this could manifest in your life, for example, your relationship with your intimate partner is exhilarating, or a new love interest or a child could be the source of a great deal of happiness and comfort. Go out of your way to mix with others, and this will have a positive and enlivening effect on your overall wellbeing and on your relationships in particular.

Your mind turns to matters of health nutrition and exercise, and you put a lot of effort into devising a befitting regime. You want to improve your overall fitness, and are prepared to put in the necessary effort and discipline needed to achieve this aim. It is possible you will come up with an imaginative and interesting new diet, or decide to learn a new discipline or training program. Whilst the benefits of this enthusiasm are extensive, be careful not to push yourself too hard. Aim for - and enjoy - steady progress.

Your communications with the people you see on a day-to-day basis take on an especial significance at this time. Even seemingly casual encounters could hold meaning for you as your emotions are dynamic and strong. You also have an independent streak, which could perhaps prompt you to act in a somewhat rebellious way if at any time you feel that someone is trying to restrict your freedom. Channel this energy into an original and innovative pursuit, and you will be amazed at how creative you can be.

Watch whom you spend time with as you are so receptive that you pick up moods and feelings from your environment. Because of this, it might be helpful to arrange your schedule to include some leisure time with the people you like the best. Conversations with friends and family could be very spirited and at the same time, comforting, as you feel safe enough here to express yourself honestly and without any restraint. You are also able to offer warmth and consideration in return.
