IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY
As a Capricorn, you pride yourself on being resourceful and, even more, on spotting what works and what doesn’t. Yet during this exciting if unsettled period, discerning what holds promise from those ideas, plans or arrangements that don’t won’t be easy. Ironically, what you learn in the process of analysing these won’t just be informative, it will shape your approach to what you decide to leave behind and, equally, what’s next.
Aries March 20 – April 19
True, nothing could have undermined the potential behind the ideas, offers or events triggered by the link between your ruler Mars and fortunate Jupiter, a week ago. Still, with so many distractions, you probably didn’t respond. Don’t worry. Simply revisit the situations in question. Those glorious opportunities are still there, waiting for you.
Taurus April 20 – May 20
It may take days to fully understand the events triggered by the recent clash between your ruler Venus and the planet of the unexpected, Uranus. What is clear is certain arrangements can’t remain as they were. Unsettling as this seems now, once you’re exploring your options, you’ll realise how timely changes are.
Gemini May 21 – June 20
As much as you enjoy a lively debate, you’re beginning to realise that certain individuals are taking some of what’s been discussed far too seriously. For now, say nothing. It may be their mood. But what’s more likely is these touch on issues that trouble them deeply, but of which you’re entirely unaware.
Cancer June 21 – July 21
Generally, the dramas or insights triggered by the Full Moon can be dealt with swiftly. However, because the recent one, on 2 January, was in your sign, you’re probably still mulling over both questions and potential breakthroughs. Take your time. Others may be in a hurry, but there’s really no rush.
Leo July 22 – August 22
Being a fire sign, you’ve a knack for responding to challenging situations both swiftly and cleverly. However, being forced to rethink, if not alter, longstanding arrangements is another matter. Not only is that exactly what you’re facing, you’ve no choice. Dire as they seem, these changes aren’t just timely, they’re long overdue.
Virgo August 23 – September 22
While you’re probably still untangling the confusion triggered by recent revelations, your feelings something must be done are right. Out of character as plunging in without a plan may be, the sooner you take action, the better. Besides, once you’re in the midst, you’ll find it easier to gather the facts you need.
Libra September 23 – October 22
At the moment, the biggest and best contribution to helping others deal with one particular, very tricky, situation is to do a lot of listening. With things still changing and vital facts unclear, this is no time for analysis. But, bizarrely, encouraging them to air their concerns will achieve wonders.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
After a week or so of complex situations and confusing discussions, you’re weighing up facts from fiction. Bear in mind, however, that with what seemed solid facts shifting and, as a result, the general mood changing, your first priority is getting an update. Only after that should you make plans.
Sagittarius November 22 – December 20
Usually you have no problem making decisions, big or little. Yet you’re still wrestling with certain matters triggered by the link between Mars and your ruler Jupiter in the most strategic portion of your chart. That’s possibly because it’s roused feelings of doubt or guilt. The sooner you face these, the better.
Capricorn December 21 – January 19
Unsettling as recent events were, resist the temptation to tackle them right away. Many were about breaking up, if not ending, arrangements that have been more draining than rewarding. For now, wait and watch. Once you’ve a better understanding what’s happening, you can make your move. Until then, play it cool.
Aquarius January 20 – February 17
Few things exasperate you more than those who commit to a plan or project but then, once you’ve got things going, back out. This may have already taken place and, if not, expect sudden changes of exactly this variety. While annoying, the odds are good there’ll be numerous trial-runs of this nature.
Pisces February 18 – March 19
Early in the month, the dynamic Mars joined Jupiter, planet of growth and good fortune, in accenting new ideas. Since then you’ve focused on exactly that, people, places and ventures that intrigue or interest you. Next week, when Mars’ focus shifts to plans, for the present and future, you’ll begin making some decisions.
