IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
A more relaxed approach to life in general, and to relationships in particular, will serve you well this year, so forget about past battles and resolve to smile and be helpful every chance you get. The universe will reward you in a very big way.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
It is essential that you make an effort to see both sides of a dispute that has the potential to disrupt your plans. Chances are you are not 100-per-cent right, and they are not 100-per-cent wrong, so find where the common ground is.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
You can sense that something good is going to happen but you cannot yet see what it might be. Today’s link between Mercury and your ruling planet Venus will open your eyes to an opportunity that has actually always been in front of you.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
Mercury, your ruler, makes a positive link to values planet Venus today, so you will see in an instant what is important and what can safely be ignored. Others will be watching you closely as well, so make sure you make the right call.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
This is a great day to get out and about and mingle with people who share your positive outlook on life. There is also the possibility that a friendship could develop into something deeper, but you must keep it light and easy.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
You may have important duties to fulfill but you still need to make time for fun and games. At this time of year more than most friends and relatives and even strangers will want to get close to you, because you’re where the love is.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
The sun moving through the most sensitive area of your chart may make you anxious but Venus in your sign will lift your spirits. Is worrying about the state of the world going to change it for the better? Of course not, so keep smiling.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
An opportunity that comes up on the work front over the next few days can give your career plans a boost, so be alert for changes that you can exploit for your own benefit. Listen to what your inner voice tells you and act on it quickly.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
Anyone who thinks they can pressure you into doing something you see as dishonest or immoral clearly does not know you too well. Inform them that you have no interest in breaking the rules, whatever the potential rewards may be.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
You may have to deal with an urgent situation to do with your work or your finances today but don’t get bogged down in it to such an extent that you forget to have fun. The sun in Leo means you must not be too serious for long.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
There may be a dozen things you want to be doing but there is only one thing that truly matters and that is what you need to focus on today to the exclusion of everything else. Remember, your own needs must always come first.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
There is no point feeling sorry for yourself if someone you have feelings for has been somewhat distant over the past few days. They have a lot on their mind at the moment and the last thing they need is to have to worry about you as well.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
What a friend or loved one expects of you today may seem silly but if you are smart you will humor them and do it to the best of your ability. When they realize how unreasonable they have been they will want to make it up to you.
