IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
You will have some big decisions to make over the coming year, not just for yourself but for other people as well. Listen to what your inner voice tells you and ignore those who claim to know better than you. A higher power is guiding your choices.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
It is natural for you to leave what needs to be done until the very last moment but if you do that today you could find yourself working into the early hours of Saturday to meet a deadline. Do you really want to start the weekend exhausted?
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
What occurs today will remind you that while it is okay to have doubts you must not allow those doubts to get on top of you and influence your long-term thinking. Some amazing things are going to be happening very soon, so stop worrying!
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
The more others urge you to follow the herd the more inclined you will be to go in the opposite direction. With both Mars and Uranus in your sign you have no intention of letting friends and family members tell you what to do.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
You like to believe you are doing something useful with your life and over the next few days you will be able to point to concrete examples of why that is true. As one of the zodiac’s water signs you rarely hesitate to help those in need.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
A partnership has had its ups and downs in recent weeks but on a fundamental level you are on the same page, so don’t start thinking you might be better off without it. There is still a great deal you can accomplish together.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
If you need assistance then you must speak up. If you merely assume that friends and loved ones can see you are in trouble you may be disappointed to find they have no idea about the pressures you are under. So let them know.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
There may be a mountain between you and your goal but you won’t let that worry you. You are in one of those moods at the moment when you just know that everything will work out for the best. And you’re right, it will.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
You may have a reputation for being ruthless with people who oppose you but you also show great kindness to those who need assistance, and that is the face you will show to the world over the next 24 hours. You’re one of life’s good guys.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
You cannot afford to get bogged down in petty details today and over the weekend, so refuse to get involved in anything you cannot deal with in under an hour. Your time is precious and must not be squandered on matters of no consequence.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
Someone in a position of authority has been watching you closely and very much likes what they see, so expect an offer of some kind to come your way either today or over the weekend. Give it some serious thought, and then say Yes.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
There may be moments today when it seems as if Lady Luck wants nothing to do with you but more likely it is your own negative thinking that is holding you back. On the work front especially you must strive to be more optimistic.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
If you get the chance to do a good deed for someone today don’t pass it up. It doesn’t matter if they merit your kindness, it matters only that you recognize it is the right thing to do. Charity isn’t about what is deserved, it’s about moral obligation.
