IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Lady Luck will smile on you this year and if you accept what she has to offer with a grateful heart her smile will get even wider. Life is good and about to get even better, so take advantage of every opportunity and enjoy every minute.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

Don’t go looking for faults in what other people are doing this weekend. For some reason you seem to be in one of those moods when other people’s efforts are never good enough. Not everyone can be as creative and committed as you.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

If a friend or work colleague takes liberties this weekend, maybe by assuming you will help them out financially, you must make it clear that you have no intention of paying for their poor decisions. Don’t be afraid to be ruthless.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

You will be the centre of attention wherever you go and whatever you do over the next 48 hours. Somehow you can’t help but attract a favourable spotlight, though that is not an invitation to be outrageous merely for the fun of it.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

You are determined to try harder and aim higher and show the world that your recent run of successes was not a fluke. Be careful though that you don’t overdo it. You may be ambitious by nature but you have limits like everyone else.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

If what a friend tells you over the next 48 hours does not ring true then you are perfectly entitled to ignore their advice. It’s unlikely they are trying to cheat you as such but it is very likely that they only see half the picture.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Something seems to be unsettling you and you need to find out what it is. It could be that yesterday’s full moon made you doubt something you previously took for granted. One day you will look back and recognize that was in fact a good thing.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

If someone gets on your nerves this weekend and your hints that they might like to stop talking so much don’t have the desired effect, just get up and go some place else. Sometimes peace and quiet are more important than friendship.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

If you get the chance to make money or move up in your career, or both, this weekend you must grab it with both hands. If others trust you with responsibility there is no valid reason why you should not trust yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Reach out to someone you care for and let them know you are still there for them and always will be. You have been a little distracted of late and because of that they may be feeling neglected. Do something fun together this weekend.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

You won’t hesitate to drop what you are working on this weekend and rush to help a friend or family member. The influence of Jupiter in your opposite sign makes you generous in the extreme. Making sacrifices will come easy to you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Try not to take life too seriously this weekend. Yes, of course, there are things going on in the world that upset you but if you can’t change them then what’s the point in getting angry? If you can love your neighbour that’s more than enough.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

If the plans you made for the weekend are disrupted, and they most likely will be, you won’t be amused. There will be a considerable amount of chaos and confusion over the next few days but ultimately it will work in your favour.
