IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
A Mars-Mercury link on your birthday means you will come across loud and clear over the next 12 months. Not everyone will approve of your forthright opinions but they will admire your confidence and the power with which you express your beliefs.
Aries (March 21 – April 20):
Your way with words will get things done today and over the weekend but don’t be excessively direct when dealing with people who aren’t as quick as you. Sometimes you don’t realize just how aggressive you can sound, so think before you speak.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21):
If your sixth sense tells you to hold back a bit today that is precisely what you must do. You won’t lose anything by going over your plans one last time, and if you find something you missed earlier on you may actually gain.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21):
Mercury, your ruler, is nicely aligned with energy planet Mars today, so get your act together and get busy on those things you know must be done immediately. While your rivals are still trying to make up their minds you will be streaking ahead.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23):
What you need to recognize now is that no one but you can resolve your current problem. You also need to understand that if you limit your actions to what you have done before you won’t change the situation one little bit. Time for some radical thinking.
Leo (July 24 – Aug. 23):
Don’t bother trying to explain to other people what you intend to do, just get on and do it and let them work it out for themselves. With Mars and Mercury working in harmony today your mind will be operating on a much higher level.
Virgo (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
Mercury, your ruling planet, will encourage you to think along lines that are new to you over the next 24 hours. Once you have tried it a few times you will discover ways of looking at the world that are actually very exciting.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
You will get through twice as much work as your colleagues today and there may be some jealousy when they see how far ahead of them you are. Don’t let that worry you for even a moment. Why should you care if they can’t keep up?
Scorpio (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
You have no intention of keeping your thoughts to yourself and anyone who does not like to be told where they have been going wrong would do best to stay out of your way. How about also turning that laser-like focus on the way your own mind works?
Sagittarius (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
There is just no way you are going to play safe today. The more friends and family members tell you that you are going too far the more you will strive to prove them wrong by pushing your limits even further. Risk is what excites you.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
Why hold a grudge against someone who can no longer hurt you? You may not be able to entirely forgive what they did but you can certainly free yourself from any negative thoughts that might hold you back. Remember, living well is the best revenge.
Aqurius (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
You have a lot on the go at the moment and there is a danger that your schedule could overwhelm you. You don’t have to give up on your goals but it might be smart to bring other people into your plans so you can share the load.
Pisces (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
Don’t waste your time on someone whose outlook on life is too gloomy for your liking. Put some distance between you today so they can rage against the machine to their heart’s content without affecting you. Life will be good if you want it to be.
