IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

The more friends and relatives and colleagues try to persuade you that this way or that way of doing things is best the more you will need to shut them out of your mind and make your own decisions. The only voice that matters is your inner voice.
Aries (March 21 – April 20):
There is a lot of dead wood in your life at the moment and a big clean-out is needed. Start by getting rid of a few so-called friendships that are pretty much one-way traffic when it comes to who profits from them. They profit and you pay.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21):
If your workload is getting on top of you then it is time to make changes. Refuse to take on any more chores and responsibilities and start offloading some of those you already have on friends and colleagues who are clearly not pulling their weight.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21):
You need to get serious about something of a creative or artistic nature, especially if you are the sort of Gemini who has half a dozen activities on the go at the same time. Focus on one, maybe two, goals and forget about the rest for a while.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23):
You have been finding it much easier to express yourself of late and that’s a good thing, but you also need to know when to hold back so as not to give away information that could be of use to rivals and competitors. Knowledge is power!
Leo (July 24 – Aug. 23):
It may come as a shock to discover that someone you had total trust in has not been totally honest with you, but don’t overreact. Most likely they have a very good reason for keeping secrets from you – so you can still be friends.
Virgo (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
Changes you made earlier in the year are beginning to bear fruit but if you are smart you won’t harvest all the goodies just yet. If you can hold back from cashing in then your profits will double and maybe even treble over the next few months.
Libra (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
You may not have accomplished as much over the first half of the year as you had expected to but you have still done a lot and can be proud of your efforts. A slight adjustment in your plans can make the second half of 2025 truly memorable.
Scorpio (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
You are not the sort to give up on something just because the going is tough. On the contrary, the fact that you have been falling behind in recent weeks will make you even more determined to catch up with and then pass your rivals.
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
So many changes are taking place in the world around you that you may be getting worried as to where they might lead. The good news is that whatever happens in the weeks and months ahead your indomitable spirit will help you make the best of it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
You must stick up for yourself over the next 24 hours, because if you don’t protect your interests you can be certain that no one else will. Don’t worry if you make an enemy or two along the way – let others know you won’t be bullied.
Aquarius (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
Someone you meet while on the move will intrigue you with their wit and wisdom but you must not believe every word they say. Just because they are good at communicating ideas does not mean those ideas can be allowed to supplant your own.
Pisces (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
If you want to make the most of your creative talents you will first have to let go of something that takes up too big a chunk of your time and energy. Be ruthless today and get rid of anything and everything that does not pay its way.
