IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

One of your greatest gifts as an Aquarius is the strong friendships you develop over the years. These often form a rock during times of change or when you’ve deep questions to discuss. Yet now, these, too are shifting, mostly because the actual people involved are themselves shifting. While unsettling, you’re urged to join them in this period of growth. Just as you’ve lived alongside each other, you can grow alongside each other as well.

Aries March 20 – April 19

It would be easy to assume that others’ lack of irritation with the current shakeups means they don’t care about these, or the disruption they’re causing. Actually, this means a lot to them. It’s just they’re not nearly as expressive as you are about those feelings of frustration. But they definitely care.

Taurus April 20 – May 20

In a week between two powerful eclipses, such as this is, life is bound to be more about undoing elements of the past and considering what must go than future planning. Uninspiring as that sounds, certain matters would benefit enormously from exactly that variety of in depth review currently taking place.

Gemini May 21 – June 20

Usually, when you’re enthusiastically discussing ideas with others, the next thing would be to explore turning them into plans. Try to do it, however, and you’ll soon realise that the actual situations in question are still too much in flux to think in lasting terms. For now, enjoy exploring your options.

Cancer June 21 – July 21

Ordinarily the period prior to next week’s New Moon would be about gradually reviewing what’s working, what isn’t and most of all, considering what should go. However, because this is an eclipse, which triggers unexpected and, often, sudden changes, you’re urged to adopt a more flexible approach. The less you decide now, the better.

Leo July 22 – August 22

Out of character as leaving decisions that really should be yours to make up to others may be, you’re tempted. This is partly because you’ve so much to do but, also, one particular individual seems convinced they know more about it than you do. They fact is, they don’t and these matters are your responsibility.

Virgo August 23 – September 22

Annoying as the games others are playing that involve making, then un-making plans may be, it’s forcing you to review your thinking about various arrangements. This, in turn, will lead to unexpectedly profitable discussions about what you actually would like to see happen, this week and over the coming weeks.

Libra September 23 – October 22

Being an air sign, you plan ahead, probably far more than you realise. This comes so naturally to you, that mostly, you’re unaware you’re doing it. Still, with the second of the current pair of eclipses shaking things up on the 15th, you’re urged to ensure whatever you plan is seriously flexible.

Scorpio October 23 – November 21

It would be easy to make the mistake of assuming the fact somebody ignored the serious issue you raised means they don’t want to discuss it. Actually, the individual in question has been distracted, and may not even have understood what you were saying. Raise it again, and the sooner the better.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 20

Because you think and act swiftly, when you do make plans they tend to be about the bigger picture and you know you’ll deal with details as they arise. But, as you’re discovering, certain individuals are obsessed with those details. Pointless as it seems, discuss these. It’s important to them.

Capricorn December 21 – January 19

There are many ways to say the single word ‘no’ but at the moment, the problem is that certain individuals aren’t listening to any of them. While that’s unavoidable, this particular group is working together on a goal they regard as possible. But you have doubts. The only solution is to back out, and now.

Aquarius January 20 – February 17

Making minor changes in your daily routine is one thing, and while it will be disruptive, you don’t mind. But the kind of changes events would demand are another matter and you’re not happy about these. While that’s understandable, these changes are influencing others, too. Together you can work things out.

Pisces February 18 – March 19

Every once in a while, somebody feels the need to lecture you on life’s practicalities. This happens to almost every Piscean from time to time, and you are accustomed to it. Still, one particular individual is taking this very seriously. Listen politely, thank them, then do exactly what you please.
