IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
Creative activities are under excellent stars on your birthday, so give yourself permission to shine this year and let the whole world see what you are capable of. Once you get into a rhythm there will be no stopping you.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
Mars, your ruler, makes a powerful link to Jupiter, planet of good fortune, this weekend, so whatever you turn your mind and hand to should work out very well indeed. Your energetic and dynamic nature will sweep aside obstacles with ease.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
If you make an effort to talk through your differences with a colleague this weekend you can start the new week unhindered by worries they might stab you in the back. You may never be the best of friends but you need not be enemies either.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
If you learn something to your advantage this weekend you should keep it to yourself, though that won’t be easy as your natural inclination will be to shout about it far and wide. The world doesn’t have to know what you are up to.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
As Jupiter in your sign now makes such a powerful link to Mars the next 48 hours will bring opportunities to push ahead with your plans and leave your rivals in the dust. The cardinal side of your nature will be very much to the fore.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
You won’t lack for self-belief this weekend but if you’re not careful that could work against you by encouraging you to take foolish risks. The world may be on your side at the moment but to keep it there you will need to make compromises.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
It’s not like you to be so assertive but you appear to be in one of those moods when you refuse to give even an inch of ground when competing with others, either over ideas or material things. You should be this forceful more often.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
You may have to cancel your social plans this weekend to focus on your work but you will be happy to do so. A fantastic Mars-Jupiter link will bring opportunities to move up on the work front and you are not about to waste them.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
Because Mars and Jupiter join forces across the two most beneficial angles of your chart over the next 48 hours you will be both energetic and ambitious, a winning combination. If you can think it you can do it, it’s truly as simple as that.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
Family and financial matters are under impressive stars, so take the lead and don’t be surprised when loved ones and colleagues fall in behind you. Others can sense you know what you are doing, which of course takes the pressure off them.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
If anyone thinks your easygoing nature is a sign of softness or weakness they will be obliged to think again this weekend. You will be in one of those moods when, to paraphrase a past president, you speak softly and carry a very big stick.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
No matter how hard your current task may be you have what it takes to make a success of it, so don’t listen to those who say it might be smart to leave it for another day. You know if you do that it will never get done.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
Mars in your sign makes the best possible link to luck planet Jupiter this weekend, so wherever you go and whatever you do opportunities will open up and all you have to do is make the most of them. You’ve got the universe at your back.
