IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
If you want to get on in the world you must leave your old ways behind and replace them with methods and routines that might feel unnatural to begin with. Don’t worry, once you get the hang of it there will be no stopping you!
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
For some strange reason you seem compelled to let family and friends in on your innermost secrets, which is not like you at all. Maybe you should take a few minutes and think it through. Do you really want them to know what you’ve been up to?
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
You will have a hard time today working out what is fact and what is fiction, so maybe it would be best to avoid coming to any firm conclusions. What you think is true over the next few hours may not seem in the least bit true tomorrow.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
If a loved one needs your help today then by all means drop what you are doing and assist them in any way you can. However, if it turns out they have been the author of their own misfortune then you must point that fact out to them.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
You may be tempted to say something controversial over the next 24 hours, both because you believe it is true and because you enjoy stirring things up. Don’t forget though that a backlash is likely – others could say controversial things about you!
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
The fact that you are chasing so hard after success could be a contributing factor to why it refuses to be caught. The message of the stars today is that you will achieve more in the long-term if you take life at a less frantic pace.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
With both the sun and Mercury in your sign you know what you want and you know how to get it, but not everyone can be as focused as you. If partners and colleagues start to dither today you may need to chivvy them along a bit.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
It is sometimes said that attack is the best form of defence and Mars in your sign makes that a philosophy you can happily sign up to. But don’t go to extremes and start fighting with people who should be on your side. You need allies, not enemies.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
Recent events have been encouraging in that they forced you to move out of your comfort zone and discover what you are truly capable of, but not everyone will want to follow your example. Sadly, some people will never have what it takes.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
What you hear today is likely to be no more than half the story, so make it a priority to find out what the other half is so you can make a sensible decision as to what you must do next. There is always an alternative viewpoint.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
You are not the sort to waste your time on trivial things, so it will no doubt annoy you today when friends and family members try to get you involved in their meaningless games. On the other hand, maybe it wouldn’t hurt to take a short break.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
You are entitled to express your opinions any way you see fit, but you also need to recognize that other people have the same rights and their conclusions may not be the same as your own. Try not to be so fixed in your outlook.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
If you make claims that cannot be backed up by facts you could end up looking silly. When it comes to one topic in particular you may be an enthusiastic amateur but you are by no means a professional. Don’t leave yourself open to ridicule.
