IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

While you sometimes complain that others leave both exploring new ideas and decisions to you, now that events are forcing others to take control, you’re not very happy about it. This issue isn’t others being in charge as much as you really enjoy the give and take of discussing ideas. Say exactly that. Although there are good reasons for others to take the reins, they’ll both appreciate your ideas and, as always, thrive on the enthusiasm you bring to this and, indeed, everything you do.

Aries (March 20 – April 18)

Few things cheer you more than those days when you’re able to deal with one complex situation, put it to rest, then tackle another. Judging by the recent link between Mercury and quick-thinking Uranus, which is positioned in your sign, that’s exactly what you’ve been doing. Better yet, this will continue.

Taurus (April 19 – May 19)

Last week’s run-in between your ruler Venus and Jupiter and its current clash with unpredictable Uranus, indicates events that are bound to make you feel unsettled. Yet unappealing, if not disruptive as those situations seem now, you’ll soon recognise them as both timely, and helpful, breakthroughs.

Gemini (May 20 – June 19)

It’s rare that you allow others’ snide asides to get to you. Yet one or two remarks weren’t just upsetting, you can’t seem to get them off your mind. The solution? Discuss them, and frankly. You’ll be amazed what you learn, both about the issues and, even more, the individuals in question.

Cancer (June 20 – July 21)

Although several decisions seem pressing, your instincts are correct in suggesting you wait and watch. The reason? The current New Moon, and its accompanying fresh perspective, will both shape your view of these matters and, even more, trigger a timely review of your priorities, which have changed more than you realise.

Leo (July 22 – August 21)

Balancing life’s duties with its pleasures can always be a challenge. Not only is your ruler the Sun now in the portion of your chart that accents those joys, the New Moon is highlighting the need for a rethink of both your existing priorities and, even more, your thoughts about the future.

Virgo (August 22 – September 21)

As a Virgo, you’d never completely ignore significant domestic or family matters. Yet recent events have demanded most of your time and, possibly, heart. However, with your ruler Mercury accenting certain issues close to home, these aren’t just increasingly pressing, if you don’t do something soon, you’ll find they’re suddenly urgent.

Libra (September 22 – October 21)

The last thing you want to do is disrupt recent hard-won agreements. But, on the other hand, events are forcing you to review both your thinking and priorities. For now, raise this with others. They may well be concerned and would be delighted to discuss how best to tackle these.

Scorpio (October 22 – November 20)

There’s no sidestepping the events triggered by recent powerful aspects to your ruler Pluto and the resulting fallout. While some developments were challenging but manageable, others have far more to do with your inner world and deepest feelings. Reflect on these now. What you learn will answer numerous persistent questions.

Sagittarius (November 21 – December 20)

Having lived with unanswered questions for weeks, you’ve almost lost hope. Consequently, you’ll be surprised by the insights triggered by the current Sagittarius New Moon. This not only provides a fresh perspective on existing concerns but, of perhaps greater importance, unexpected ideas or offers will prove to be thrilling.

Capricorn (December 21 – January 19)

The recent link between the ideas planet Mercury and your ruler Saturn will have both forced you to reveal issues you’ve been ignoring and, equally, made you realise how important other’s matters are to you. In every case, instead of being relieved this is over, it’s worth taking those discussions further.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)

Ordinarily those around you changing plans, even at the last minute, is fine. However, it’s quite another matter if these interfere with your own arrangements, which is likely. Rather than try to make what you’re doing coincide with others, detail your problems and the reasons why. You’ll work out a compromise swiftly and easily.

Pisces (February 19 – March 19)

After having wrestled with recent troubling issues, you simply haven’t been able to find an arrangement that will keep everybody happy. Don’t give up. The fresh perspective that accompanies the current New Moon will both lead to inspiring options and, better yet, soften the rigid thinking of certain individuals.
