IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY
Your focus is on enjoying what you have, in every area of your life while, equally, focusing on what you want to do and add. It’s easy to get so lost in everyday tasks and routine, and even everyday pleasures, that you don’t think about what could be altered, improved upon, or pause to dream about the future. Your birthday chart says it’s time to do exactly that. You may well be surprised what you discover, about your desires and yourself.
Aries March 20 – April 19
While most Aries are sociable by nature, that doesn’t mean you’re always happy making joint decisions. However, since your ruler Mars moved to accent exactly this approach to plans, in mid-May, you’ve been forced to go along with others’ views, if not compromise. While, often, it’s been irritating you’ve also learnt a lot.
Taurus April 20 – May 20
Complex and persistent as certain family issues seem, they’re actually due to a series of minor misunderstandings. Detecting these won’t be easy. Still, the time you invest in discovering their source now will be worth it. The resulting discussions will reveal the core issues and lead to resolving them for good.
Gemini May 21 – June 20
You’re both interested in what others are doing and fascinated by events in the world around you. Still, with so much going on, it’s easy to get distracted by minor developments when those of more far-reaching importance need attention. The trick is to invest a little time in everything and ignore nothing.
Cancer June 21 – July 21
Although you’re more tuned into the lunar cycle than others, the intensity of the recent Full Moon may have come as a surprise. This is the beginning of a disruptive but illuminating cycle of three eclipses, on 13 and 27 July and in mid-August. While shakeups are inevitable, they’ll lead to timely breakthroughs.
Leo July 22 – August 22
Annoying and, in some ways, pointless as the demands triggered by the recent clash between your ruler the Sun and the practical Saturn were, they’re not only inescapable, they’ll prove unexpectedly informative. True, at the moment it’s unclear in what way. Once you’re more involved, you’ll realise just how much you’ll learn.
Virgo August 23 – September 22
Long ago, you learnt how unwise it is to try to justify your decisions to certain argumentative individuals. Still, you sometimes fall into the trap of responding to what seems their straightforward questions. Be wary. While their interest is genuine, they can’t help but turn asking simple questions into an inquisition.
Libra September 23 – October 22
Ordinarily you have an amazing talent for navigating around the peculiarities of others, even those who can be very difficult indeed. Yet recently one particular individual seems to have been troublesome, often and deliberately. That’s true. They misunderstood something you did or said which, from their perspective, gives them a right to behave badly.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
When you make a decision, generally, you’ll have thought everything through in detail, so rarely need to rethink things. In fact, the need to do so can make you wonder whether you’ve missed something. On the contrary, with so much changing so swiftly, a review isn’t just wise, it’s vital.
Sagittarius November 22 – December 20
Being optimistic by nature, most Sagittarians will regard setbacks as a challenge to be overcome rather than a problem. However, somebody close by, who you live or work with isn’t nearly as upbeat. Avoid discussing plans and simply proceed with what you think is best. The odds are good you’re right.
Capricorn December 21 – January 19
If you’re still wrestling with the emotional upheaval triggered by last week’s Capricorn Full Moon, it’s no surprise. While some of the issues you’ll have faced were nothing new, you regarded others as mere minor concerns, nothing more. Now you’re aware they’re crucial, and will require your attention soon if not right away.
Aquarius January 20 – February 17
One of your greatest gifts, as an Aquarius, is your ability to ignore the irritating habits or even unreliable nature of others. Recently, however, one particular individual seems to care little about whether their words or actions cause you, or those around you, problems. Try to be patient. This phase won’t last forever.
Pisces February 18 – March 19
Ignoring the complaints of certain individuals isn’t easy. But reviewing their concerns will achieve little. First, they’re not actually clear about what’s bothering them, so discussions would consist almost entirely of moaning. Equally, they’re perfectly capable of dealing with these matters themselves. Actually, all they’re interested in is your attention.
