IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY

Being born under the rulership of the fortunate Jupiter, you have a magical touch. Even on those rare occasions when things go wrong, events will turn that adversity to your favour. Now, however, it’s the unexpected that’s bringing you good fortune, and in wonderful ways. The only challenge for you, at times, is to allow destiny to truly take over and lead you to those amazing settings, experiences and individuals. The more you explore, the more you’ll benefit.

Aries (March 20 – April 18)

Few things are more boring than having to bow to the demands of tedious rules or dull regulations. Yet now, in the build up to Saturday’s encounter between the Sun and tough Saturn, circumstances are giving you little choice. Bizarrely, what you learn will more than justify the patience required.

Taurus (April 19 – May 19)

The need to rethink certain practical or financial arrangements is nothing new. While you’ve been aware that recent developments would necessitate changes, you’ve hoped these could wait. They can, but not for much longer. Get going. What’s more, once you’ve done a little investigation, you’ll realise how beneficial these will be.

Gemini (May 20 – June 19)

A week ago your ruler Mercury moved into the practical Capricorn and into one of the portions of your chart that has to do with finances. Not only that, because it goes retrograde there on the 19th, be prepared to spot and, importantly, learn from minor errors you’d otherwise have missed.

Cancer (June 20 – July 21)

Be aware that everybody and, indeed, every sign has their way of dealing with details. Judging by the current planetary setup, you’re dealing with somebody who cares little about feelings but is obsessed with hard facts. This isn’t necessarily your way of making decisions, but facts are all they’re interested in.

Leo (July 22 – August 21)

As a fire sign, you think and move swiftly. While you’ll sometimes plan ahead, life’s easier if you organise things as you proceed. However, not everybody agrees. This has become a persistent issue between you and certain individuals. Since discussions will only complicate matters you talk over, diplomatically avoid their suggestions.

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)

Although everybody complains when your ruler Mercury is retrograde, as it will be from the 19th, it can be as informative as it is, at times, irritating. What’s more, because this particular cycle accents who and what you enjoy in life, those minor errors could expose issues that need attention.

Libra (September 22 – October 21)

While most of those born under the sign of Libra are superb diplomats, a few speak bluntly, whatever the situation or the people involved. Judging by certain increasingly tricky situations, if this way of approaching conflicts doesn’t come naturally to you, it’s worth developing that characteristic, if only temporarily.

Scorpio (October 22 – November 20)

Being an emotionally intense water sign, you’re often more aware of the tides of others’ feelings than they are themselves. Ironically, however, you’ll sometimes ignore your own equally intense feelings because they remind you how vulnerable you are. Delve into them. What you learn and experience will be amazingly rewarding.

Sagittarius (November 21 – December 20)

By no means are you secretive. But you’ve been reluctant to discuss certain complex issues, mostly because any explanation would take time that could be better used dealing with these. Ironically, however, what you learn while talking them over could lead to solutions that are as worthwhile as they are swift.

Capricorn (December 21 – January 19)

On occasion you’ll happily take chances. Still, when you venture into unfamiliar territory, you’ll do your research and, ideally, seek the guidance of others. Yet you’re now moving into a cycle during which you’ll need to trust your instincts, and nothing else. It won’t be easy but will be worth it.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

Nobody is more easygoing about the quirks of others than you are. In truth, you rather enjoy those who have the courage to be different in some way. Now, however, certain rather critical individuals are questioning your friendships with others. State, simply and clearly, it’s none of their business.

Pisces (February 19 – March 19)

Most Pisces are expert at managing even very difficult situations with subtlety. Yet now it’s the reverse, you’ll need to be forthright if not just plain blunt about increasingly troublesome issues. While others are eager to be helpful, you must be far more direct with certain thoughtless individuals.
