IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY
One of your greatest strengths is your ability to stick with what, and who, you believe in. However, this birthday’s about learning to recognise, and say farewell to, elements of your life that have outlived their time. Tempting as it is to focus on reviving these, deep down you know these must go. As important, in letting them go, you’re making it possible for you to welcome, and focus on, the exciting, intriguing and promising new ideas and alliances coming your way.
Aries March 20 – April 18
The time has come to clear the air with one particular individual. For months, if not years, you’ve harboured feelings of concern mixed with anger about the unwise decisions they were making. You’ve spoken of these feelings but were ignored. Discussing this won’t be easy but you really have no choice.
Taurus April 19 – May 19
Being ruled by the charming Venus, you’re usually able to raise, and discuss, even provocative issues without triggering clashes. Yet between unsettling circumstances and the edgy mood of others, even you are struggling with certain matters. Forget about being tactful and instead be as blunt as is necessary. It’s the best option.
Gemini May 20 – June 19
Progress is exciting, especially when it’s about ideas or ventures you’ve had in mind for ages. Yet it’s easy to forget that, as you stride ahead into the future, you must inevitably leave certain elements of the past behind. This could refer to once-cherished arrangements or, equally, valued relationships.
Cancer June 20 – July 21
Often you sense the influence of the Full Moon without having to look up in the sky to check things out. However, not only are others less aware of the influence of Tuesday’s powerful lunation, they’re trying to pretend they’re not concerned about certain matters when, indeed, they are. A lot.
Leo July 22 – August 21
Don’t be surprised if, suddenly, others question arrangements they’ve already agreed to. This has nothing to do with the actual plans and everything to do with the need to become accustomed to the changes these would bring. Although you may not feel like being patient, it’s the ideal solution.
Virgo August 22 – September 21
Because you’re an earth sign, you pride yourself on being practical. And, even more, when others are saying they’re anxious or struggling with doubts, you’ve a capacity to maintain a logical approach, even to rather worrying matters. Yet Tuesday’s Full Moon could stir feelings of being unsettled, if not just plain emotional.
Libra September 22 – October 21
It’s rare you’re so irritated with anybody that you lose your cool and insist on having the last word, no matter what. Yet that’s what’s happening. While arguing with others may not accomplish much, you’ll be amazed how those feelings you’re experiencing are clearing your mind, especially about very confusing issues.
Scorpio October 22 – November 20
As with so much in life, the success of your discussions about one particularly tense matter is as much about when as what you actually say. If you can’t resolve things now, bide your time until late November’s powerful clash between Jupiter and your ruler Pluto. That could change everything, overnight.
Sagittarius November 21 – December 20
Planning ahead may be a virtue. Do too much of it now, prior to the powerful insights triggered by the Sagittarius New Moon, at the end of the month, and you’ll only need to rethink those arrangements. For the moment, focus on what needs to change and, even more important, possibly go.
Capricorn December 21 – January 19
There are many ways to say the single word ‘no’. While it’s important others are aware of your reluctance to get involved in the plans they’re proposing as they stand now, ensure they know that if they’re willing to make a few changes, you’ll be willing to talk. But not before.
Aquarius January 20 – February 18
Being an air sign, you pride yourself on being both well informed and rational, that is, you think things through before you act. However, with the rather hot-headed Mars in Aquarius for five weeks, don’t be surprised of you uncover another, more impulsive, if not passionate, side of your nature.
Pisces February 19 – March 19
Over the past several months you’ve noticed that arrangements that once went like clockwork are increasingly unreliable. That’s because times have changed but these haven’t. The odds are good they will need no more than minor tweaking. Make this a team effort by getting those who’re also interested involved in discussions and plans.
