IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

Only those who know you really well are aware that you have a stubborn streak and that, in fact, once you’ve made a decision, it’s often non-negotiable. While that can be both a virtue and a problem, judging by your birthday chart, it’s preventing you acknowledging certain once-important arrangements no longer work, and must either change or go. The sooner you’re willing to rethink these, the more swiftly you can address serious plans for the future.

Aries March 20 – April 18

Every once in a while a situation that’s so frustrating you can’t help but get irritated, if not lose your temper. While nobody would blame you, stick with the matter in question. Tempting as it is to include other, similar, issues as well, they’re far more complex, and will devour your time.

Taurus April 19 – May 19

Exciting as the ideas or, possibly, offers ushered in by last Monday’s link between the Sun and fortunate Jupiter may have been, inevitably, they’re disruptive. Tempted as you are to minimise this, don’t. While any chaos you experience will pass swiftly, you’ll benefit from these changes for a very long time.

Gemini May 20 – June 19

For ages you’ve hoped you could find a way around one particularly tricky issue. It’s rare your feelings are so strong you’re unwilling to compromise, but this is exactly such a situation. Unfortunately, others feel the same. The solution? Ask others to explain their reasons. Their response will surprise you.

Cancer June 20 – July 21

Good luck is in the air. While you’ve recognised the promise certain ideas, offers and events hold, you’d rather things were more reliable. With this swift pace, that simply isn’t possible. Get involved now, and as plans grow, so will that solid foundation you quite rightly desire.

Leo July 22 – August 21

Although you rarely think of it, you have a stubborn streak. This gives you the staying power to face and overcome challenging situations. But it also means you’ll dismiss brilliant ideas or offers because they seem disruptive. You’re in danger of doing this now. At least explore what’s arisen.

Virgo August 22 – September 21

Some dilemmas have no perfect solution. And, in certain of the decisions you’re facing, you’re lacking in facts. While obviously for you, as a painstaking Virgo, this is aggravating, there’s nothing you can do about it. Gather whatever information you can, combine it with your instincts, then plunge in.

Libra September 22 – October 21

There’s a fine line between noting your views about certain arrangements differ from others and actually calling them a liar. Which is exactly what you must do, or the individual in question will regard your silence as an invitation to take liberties with the truth, and in all sorts of situations.

Scorpio October 22 – November 20

Many Scorpios live in a very practical, if not scientific, world. Yet even those who give little thought to the unseen world of feelings, intuition and spirituality, still have a strong sense of this side of our nature. And, at the moment, the resulting insights aren’t just informative, they’re incredibly important.

Sagittarius November 21 – December 20

It’s rarely mentioned, but part of making progress requires letting go of elements of the past. Obvious as this seems, you’re struggling to keep certain longstanding arrangements going, mostly out of a displaced sentimentality. Once they were rewarding. Gradually, and over time, however, they’ve become burdens, and they’re holding you back.

Capricorn December 21 – January 19

The recent New Moon influenced every sign. But because it accented the structure of your life, at home and out in the world, it may seem you’re dealing with no more than random changes. Consider them together, and you’ll realise they’re all about a fresh perspective on existing arrangements.

Aquarius January 20 – February 18

Pushy people and unfair regulations top the list of things you loathe. While this is understandable, it’s vital you don’t allow these strong feelings to prevent you taking a stance in certain already unfair arrangements. You need only speak up. Others are well aware they’re in the wrong.

Pisces February 19 – March 19

Some offers require thought, negotiation and yet more thought. Those coming your way now, however, are so rare and so wonderful that you’re urged to say yes first, then negotiate. This both gives you a chance to learn more and seek guidance from those whose advice you value.
