IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY
There are several kinds of ‘letting go’. There’s decluttering your home and reviewing how you spend your time. However, this is about letting go of certain of your own unspoken and, possibly, unacknowledged, hopes, dreams or, perhaps, worldly ambitions. While some are conscious, what’s most important are those that you rarely think about. After first recognising them, you’ll begin untangling arrangements and commitments that never seem to go anywhere, and in the process, clearing the way for new, and wonderful, pursuits.
Aries March 20 – April 18
As an Aries, you don’t mind dealing with changes, it’s just that having to rethink plans slows your pace, so can be irritating. Bizarrely, however, what you discover that needs to be rethought or even substantially altered could more than justify the time and effort dealing with them will require of you.
Taurus April 19 – May 19
If you’ve managed to deflect suggestions you should rethink elements of your domestic setup or lifestyle, you’re probably relieved. But it’s not over. Judging by the influence of Monday’s eclipsed New Moon, there’s more to come. These events will take the form of unexpected but tempting ideas or offers. They could change everything.
Gemini May 20 – June 20
Events are accenting the rarely seen critical side of your nature. While other signs can be fierce in their assessment, you’ll say little but sometimes write off the potential of the individual in question, at least in regard to certain matters. You’re being prompted to think about this. Do so, and in depth.
Cancer June 21 – July 21
Decluttering your cupboards, your diary or your life is supposed to lift your spirits. Yet the way in which events are reorganising and, in fact, eliminating elements of your diary is more worrying than anything else. Give it some time. Within weeks, if not days, you’ll be glad certain arrangements are history.
Leo July 22 – August 21
As much as you’d like to get things organised now, mostly so you can proceed with plans and, even more, make up for lost time, it’s just not realistic. In fact, between the coming solar eclipse and the Sun changing signs, both within a few days’ time, even simple arrangements won’t last long.
Virgo August 22 – September 21
While every sign will be influenced by your ruler Mercury’s retrograde cycle, which began on the 13th, because it’s actually in Virgo, you could feel responsible for problems that have nothing to do with you. During periods as unsettled as this, even the simplest of arrangements are unlikely to go as planned.
Libra September 22 – October 22
Nobody is better at keeping things going and ensuring everybody’s happy than a Libra. In fact, you’ll often sideline, if not neglect, your own interests in favour of certain rather demanding individuals. Now, however, what and who matters to you take priority, even if putting them first ruffles somebody’s feathers.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
Because both of August’s eclipses accent the structure of your life, changes are probably already in the air. Be aware, however, that because this Monday’s is a New Moon, and therefore about a fresh start, there’s no better time than now to embrace the new and unexpected, even if events are somewhat unsettling.
Sagittarius November 22 – December 20
With so much going on in the world around you, the last thing you’re in the mood to do is conduct a review. Still, at least give some thought to what works in your life and what doesn’t or, in fact, devours your time, money or heart, and for little in return.
Capricorn December 21 – January 18
Even at your most easygoing, you still tend to think about your week, your day and even how you’ll organise the hour to come. Yet as you’ll have noticed, during a period as unruly as this, changes, often unexpected, are inevitable. Bizarrely, what’s most surprising could turn out best in the long run.
Aquarius January 19 – February 17
As much as you enjoy talking things over with those around you, from friends or colleagues to family, be cautious. This isn’t so much because of any risk but, rather, with so much in transition, certain individuals could decide you’re the one who can advise them, and won’t stop asking until you do.
Pisces February 18 – March 19
Planning ahead may be a virtue. But between Monday’s eclipsed New Moon and the Sun moving into your opposite sign of Virgo the next day, sudden and, occasionally, dramatic changes could mean rethinking everything. Unsettling as this may be in the short term, these developments are, in reality, long overdue breakthroughs.
