IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

Obviously, you want to have good relationships with others. But this isn’t just about warm feelings, it’s about being frank or, if necessary, confronting others, yet maintaining the status quo. This will arise in a range of ways, and you’ll often be surprised by what you learn from the actual process of defining issues, then talking them through. This has, in part, to do with the facts, but as much to do with understanding others and what makes them tick.

Aries March 20 – April 18

As a fire sign and, therefore, being somebody who prefers to fit as much into each day as possible, you’ll often gloss over dull facts or information you regard as unimportant. While, ordinarily that works, include absolutely everything. What seems of little significance to you at the moment could, ultimately, be crucial.

Taurus April 19 – May 19

Looking back on the past six weeks or so, with August’s two eclipses and the more recent New Moon, which accented certain issues involving those closest, you could well wonder whether things will ever again be calm. They will be. However, first you must tackle certain persistent, and confusing, problems.

Gemini May 20 – June 20

Just when you’ve become unspeakably exasperated with the inflexible attitude of others towards with the changes you’re making, you’re being hit by the reverse. That is, you’re being forced to realise you’ve completely dismissed even discussing certain changes so that, to you, the possibility didn’t even exist.

Cancer June 21 – July 21

Only recently certain plans turned into a battle, mostly because at every turn you faced unfair opposition, and that upset you. While you can achieve your goals, you’ll have to avoid getting angry and instead, channel that passion into coming up with a creative solution. Once you do that, the rest will be easy.

Leo July 22 – August 21

The line between being held back unfairly and realistic restrictions is never a clear one, especially in situations about which your feelings are passionate. Still, it’s worth seeking the guidance of somebody who can approach these conflicts from a logical, and more strategic, perspective. Then you must listen to, and take, their suggestions.

Virgo August 22 – September 21

For weeks you’ve been discussing certain arrangements. And for weeks, you’ve made plans with others, only to discover later they’d ignored much of what you’d agreed. They simply don’t view certain details as having the significance you do. And never will. If things need to be rethought, you’re better off doing it yourself.

Libra September 22 – October 22

There’s a case for continuing to keep certain potentially controversial matters to yourself. Still, seriously consider discussing these with those who’re involved. Do it soon, and be frank. Worrying as this seems, the individuals in question are already aware of the facts. You’d just be filling them in on the details.

Scorpio October 23 – November 21

Judging by the influence of the recent New Moon and the fresh perspective that it introduced, and the coming week’s topics of discussion, several seemingly stable situations are about to do exactly that. While you’ve been aware changes were in the air, they’re taking place far more swiftly than you anticipated.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 20

Of the twelve signs, you have perhaps the best understanding that, over time, even the closest of relationships reshape themselves. This is the case now. However, others may not understand that and could, in fact, worry. Discuss these, reassuring them that these changes aren’t about endings but, rather, growth and discovery.

Capricorn December 21 – January 18

In many ways, you’re worldly wise. That is, you’re both interested in what’s going on in the world, and try to be practical about events that will influence you. Yet now events or, perhaps, certain individuals are cornering you into venturing into new, and unfamiliar territory and, to your surprise, you’re loving it.

Aquarius January 19 – February 17

True, in the past you’ve often complained that others seem to expect you to deal with certain matters, so simply leave everything to you. Yet now that circumstances have forced the individuals in question to take over, you must admit, it’s true. They simply can’t do it like you can.

Pisces February 18 – March 19

There have been many times in the past when you’ve wished you could turn troublesome issues over to somebody else. Now that it’s the case, you’re uneasy, if not just plain anxious. Yet judging by the current planetary setup, the individuals in question are better equipped than you to deal with these matters.
