IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

The message of your birthday chart is that you need to come to terms with the fact that nothing stays the same for long and that change, while sometimes worrying, is often very good in the long-term. Embrace change with a passion this year.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

With both Saturn and Neptune parked in your sign there seems to be a battle going on in your head between reason and inspiration. Do you stick rigidly to logic or do you let your imagination roam free? That is the question you must answer today.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

Although you may be inclined to stick with what you know and trust there will come a moment today when you realize that you have no choice but to try something new. Don’t be scared － it’s almost guaranteed to turn out well for you.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

If you make a hasty decision about your finances today you will probably regret it over the weekend, so abandon the idea that you’ve got to act quickly and instead let time do its work. Or are you okay with other people getting rich at your expense?

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

It may be easy to blame others for not having reached your full potential but deep down you know the fault lies closer to home. The good news is you are about to get another chance to show your worth. Don’t waste this one.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Why are you pushing yourself so hard over a task that has zero meaning for you? Most likely it’s because you feel an obligation to someone who has helped you in the past. So get on with it － and make sure you do an excellent job.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

If the cost of a creative project has ballooned to the extent that you are beginning to get worried maybe you need to take another look at it. It could be you started off with expectations that were way too high. Bring it down to earth a bit.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

If a partner or colleague does something today that seems designed to make life tough your first instinct will be to hit back at them. But is that really necessary? Whatever their motivation may be there’s not actually much they can do to hurt you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

If you are planning to get out and about over the weekend you must make sure you are up to date with all your tasks and chores. Make it your aim today to get on top of your workload － then go and have fun with a clear conscience.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

The sooner you realize that perfection is unattainable the sooner you can stop putting so much pressure on yourself and the sooner life will be full of laughter again. Strive hard by all means today but never forget you are human.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

It won’t bother you in the slightest that some people disagree with your plans. Venus in the career area of your chart means you no longer care what friends and colleagues and even your employer might think. You know what’s best for you personally.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

You may owe someone a favour but don’t go out of your way to repay it if by doing so your finances might suffer. Most likely they could not care less when, or even if, you pay them back, so why put all that pressure on yourself?

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

If your sixth sense tells you to play along with someone’s little game then do so and pretend you are as captivated by it as they are. It doesn’t hurt to help a friend feel good about themselves, and you will feel good about yourself as well.
