IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
The influence of Uranus, planet of genius, on your birthday will help you to stretch yourself mentally over the coming year. Keep abreast of new discoveries in the technological sphere, because that is where you are most likely to make your fortune.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
Things could get a bit tricky over the next few days, so promise yourself here and now that no matter what happens you will stay calm, even if everyone around you is going crazy. If you keep your head you might even make a financial killing.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
This is not the right time to gamble, either with your money or your emotions, so stick to what you know and trust and don’t be tempted to take risks merely for the fun of it. Always listen to, and act on, what your inner voice tells you.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
You may be inclined to start the day early and finish really late but if you do you could end up exhausting yourself. Instead, take what you were planning to do today and spread it over the next 48 hours. It will still get done.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
This should be a highly productive time for you and today’s sun-Uranus link will certainly fill your mind with big ideas. Some of them, however, may be so big that they have no hope of ever coming true, so strive to be realistic as well.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
Ignore the critics and the cynics who say you are aiming too high and do something that raises the stakes several times over. A confident approach will be half the battle today and your rivals will be cowed by your can-do approach to life.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
If you need assistance today then ask for it. If you sit there hoping others will notice you are having a hard time you will probably sit there all day and all night, so speak up. Don’t act as if others can read your mind, because they can’t.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
Today’s sun-Uranus link will encourage you to do something exciting, but as Uranus is going through its retrograde phase you must be careful as well. You’re not invincible, so don’t take on challenges you have no way of knowing will work out for the best.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
You won’t get much peace and quiet as the new week begins but that’s okay. When Mercury moves into your sign on Wednesday you will find it easier to shut out the noise and focus on your thoughts but, for now, accept that life will be loud.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
Some of the people you are currently dealing with seem to think you were put on Earth to look out for their interests rather than your own and it’s time you set them straight. Make it a matter of policy today to say “No” to every request.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
Upheavals on the work front may be unsettling but the good news is they will eventually work in your favor. The not-so-good news is it may be several weeks, or even months, before there is evidence of that, so you will need to be patient.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
Uranus, your ruler, makes a positive link to the sun today, which is an excellent omen for creative activities. It won’t be plain sailing all the way but the efforts you make will be more than matched by the rewards you get back.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
If you start slow and easy today you may find it hard to pick up speed later in the week, which in turn means you could miss out on opportunities that would have been good for you. Start the day at a run and then keep moving faster.
