IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
Turn down the volume on what other people are saying and listen instead to your own inner voice. If you do that over the coming year you will find yourself guided to make all the right calls. Deep down you already know what needs to be done.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
The planets warn that a co-worker is envious of your success and may be plotting to bring you down a notch or two. For that reason alone you need to watch where you put your feet over the next 24 hours. Don’t stumble into their trap.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
It’s not like you to behave irrationally but you seem determined to do things that cannot possibility have a beneficial outcome. It’s because you are bored and need something to distract you. Start a new hobby, or even a new relationship.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
The more reasonable you are with someone the more unreasonably they seem to behave. Take the hint and accept that their way of looking at things and your way of looking at things are never going to coincide. It may be time for a split.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
Just because you look up to and respect someone does not mean that their every word is going to be true. If something you are told today does not ring true you must make the effort to do your own research. It could save you money.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
With the sun as your ruler you tend to have a sunny disposition but just lately the clouds have gathered and smiles have been few and far between. Turn the tide on that today by consciously looking for reasons to be cheerful. You’ll find them.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
Mercury, your ruler, makes a positive link to luck planet Jupiter over the next 24 hours, so you can expect good news to arrive from a faraway place. Not only will it cheer you up but it may put a few extra dollars in your pocket as well.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
If you must disagree with someone in a position of power today you will need to be smart about it and make sure you have the facts on your side. Just because you have a “feeling” about something does not mean they will take it seriously.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
By all means speak your mind today but if you are going to be critical try to give your words some sugar coating. If you are too blunt you run the risk of turning against you the very people you are going to need on your side.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
Work-related matters will be under the spotlight today, so keep your wits about you and stay on the good side of employers and senior colleagues. It doesn’t matter what your colleagues are up to, it matters only that you are following the rules.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
Identify your priorities and focus on them to the exclusion of everything else. No matter how many of your friends and relatives beg you to do this and do that for them you must ignore their requests. Sometimes you have to be selfish.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
If you make a point of publicizing a colleague’s mistakes today they will hold it against you for a very long time. Instead, take them gently aside and suggest ways they can improve their performance. Then they’ll be a friend for life.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
Try not to be too serious about life. There may be a lot of bad things going on in the world but getting angry about them is unlikely to change a thing. What might change things though is if you make your own life a picture of love and hope.
