This is the Jonathan Cainer daily horoscope. Jonathan is on holiday and Eric is covering his daily predictions for a few days.

IT WOULD be difficult to cram more astrology into a single week, but when the planets speak, they like to be heard. We're standing in one of those cosmic junctures, as if many different roads of time come together and form a hub. It started with yesterday's lunar eclipse. Then there are a series of squares or 90-degree angles between planets, the most dynamic aspect of the lot. Jupiter is exactly square Neptune; the Sun is square Pluto and the Galactic Core; Mercury will soon square Mars. But Mercury retrograde is making a long trine (120-degree angle) to Jupiter. That represents the one decision you need to make, in the midst of so many other influences.

Aries (March 21-April 20)
You may feel like the events of this week should rightfully bring a sense of resolution, but there is tension hanging in the air. You need to work your way to a deeper layer to get any relief, but you can be sure that you'll get there. In short, external circumstances play only a small role in your life right now. And the inner conditions you need to change may be offering you more resistance than you were expecting. All you need to do is go gently for a couple of weeks, and you'll suddenly discover what you thought was the most difficult adjustment was really the easiest.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)
Mark Twain advised not to let your schoolin' get in the way of your learnin'. I suggest you not let your work get in the way of your achievements. Lately you are reaching higher; you are reaching for a dream you've had a long time, but could not quite figure out how to organise. What you've needed were the concepts that would get you from what you thought of as unchanging reality to an entirely new role in the world. Suddenly, this seems not only possible but also practical. Today you can let go of a work habit that held you back -- and yet another old idea that held you down.

Gemini (May 22ˆJune 22)
What was obvious yesterday may not be so obvious today. In assessing yourself, your environment or a particular situation -- the perspective you take means a lot. If you look at something from a different angle, you will see it differently. Your perspective is changing pretty quickly right now and you're likely to see the world quite differently every day. Which version is true? Which viewpoint is real? Well, they all are. But some are more influential than others. Don't forget what you saw, heard or observed just recently. It means more than you may realise.

Cancer (June 23-July 23)
You seem to be taking off your insecurities like a tight old shoe. It's about time. Fear is conditioned into us in so many ways, and for so long, that it comes to a point where life itself seems a threat. But I ask you to take notice that when you're faced with a fear now, you have the choice to retreat or push into new territory. Often this is psychic territory; most of our advancing and retreating happens in our own minds. What's developing in your life is a figment of your imagination, and that's where creativity begins. Your ideas are about to get serious results.

Leo (July 24-Aug. 23)
You seem to be negotiating something that keeps sliding every which way but forward. Someone close to you cannot make up their mind about what they want, and this is not helping you focus. But if you stand back from any frustration this may be causing, you'll see the decision points as they come up. You may need to make a series of choices, some of which seem to contradict the others. Remember that consistency is not the only virtue; there is a place in the world for responding to the available data in the moment, and then doing it again.

Virgo (Aug. 24-Sep. 23)
As the dust settles on the lunar eclipse in your sign, you may feel that something beyond your own individual needs is on the line. You're faced with an interesting proposition. It's like this: let go of the conditioning you have collected and that has come to make up most of your personality, and you will free yourself to play a much wider role in life. It's amazing how little resistance we need to give up in order to allow in a substantially greater flow of energy -- and how few pointless ideas we need to throw back to the cosmos in order to get the information we need the very most.

Libra (Sep. 24-Oct. 23)
There seems no end to the adventure of the past few days, but at least life is interesting -- and you're not exactly dragging your feet. If you feel like you're starting to enjoy taking ever more exciting risks, draw the line where your health is concerned. You need to keep some of that Libran balance between expressing your abundant energy, and not running yourself into the ground. If you start with eating and sleeping well, the rest will fall in line. A little nourishment goes a long way, but you need to keep your focus, and make sure some of that nourishment is emotional.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
You can usually see through the fog. There's nothing as beautiful as a nice mist over the mountains, but when there's work to be done or a mission at stake, those little particles of water vapour can distract everyone. Not you. Keep your focus. Whatever emotional situation is unfolding in your life deserves your attention, but not as much as others may feel. At the moment, your job is to prioritise, to ensure people are aware of the details, and to remind everyone not to get caught up in their fears, mainly by living as if anxiety is nothing more than a distraction.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)
Only you can see the way out of the controversy. Over the next few days, certain individuals in your life are likely to make a bigger deal than necessary out of something that could just as well be let go of. If you'll bide your time, the seeming urgency of the situation will pass and you'll be able to get a grip on things. The critical element is that you keep in mind what outcome you want, and not forget. Once everyone and everything settles down, you're likely to have the perfect opening to get your way. Watch carefully, because it's not a barn door. It's more like a hidden alley.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)
Your faith is not so easily shaken, and for that you can be thankful. You're neither casually convinced, nor easily dissuaded from your personal convictions. Recently, certain facts have changed and others are rearranging themselves faster than a stage crew changes the scenery in the middle of a play. But this does not alter the underlying truth, which is likely to be more compelling than ever. If you're looking for substantiation, stick to anything that comes along with tangible evidence. Stick to facts, not opinions. The difference may not be so obvious at first.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)
Various cosmic forces seem determined to open you up. Your days now are just wave after wave of intense emotional experience, and it's taking you back to seeking information from an earlier stage of your life. What you're learning about your childhood is more than psychological trivia. Your personal history has never been more vivid, and what you're experiencing or observing now has the power to take you to the core of your questions about why you exist and why you experience life the way you do. Yes, it all started a long time ago, but that was only yesterday.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)
Looked at one way, a relationship situation is at an impasse. Everyone has their viewpoint, and nobody seems willing to let it go. You appear resolute about making your position clear, and you may be holding onto the past in some way. Yet at the same time, you know you need to adjust something within yourself on a deep level. Regardless of what anyone else may be feeling, demanding, or holding out for, only you can change yourself, and for once I think you know it. It won't be long before you see that far from being a source of discord, your right to self-determination is what puts you in harmony with those around you.
