IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

Although you don’t think of it, you have a gift for handling even very tricky situations tactfully. Even more, you sense when silence is best. As you’re aware, you’re dealing with this, and in a bizarre range of situations. In every case, your intuition has strongly guided you away from discussion and towards matters that sidestep potentially sensitive issues. The moment will come to discuss these. Happily, you’ll sense that, and will know exactly how to raise the issue in question and precisely what to say.

Aries March 20 – April 19

Seeking advice is one thing. But being told what you’ve already organised needs to change, and dramatically, is another matter. Yet that seems to be what you’re facing. Irritating as having to discuss plans point by point, and in detail, may be, what you learn will more than justify the patience required.

Taurus April 20 – May 20

Last week, Uranus, the planet that accents new ideas and unexpected events, moved into Taurus for a lengthy stay. Knowing that, urgent as certain ideas or offers seem, you’ve plenty of time to explore your options. The trick is to get involved, and where you’re interested, show it, but avoid lasting arrangements.

Gemini May 21 – June 20

By no means are you resistant to change. On the contrary, as a Gemini, you thrive on new ideas. Still, intriguing as one particular idea or offer is, it would mean handing control over to others completely. It’s worth it. What you learn, about situations and from them, will justify being more flexible.

Cancer June 21 – July 21

There’s a difference between finding somebody who shares your ideas or vision for the future and the individual in question being reliable. While they might be, caution is wise, at least initially. Their intentions may be good. However, you’ll also want to ensure they will be there when the going gets tough.

Leo July 22 – August 22

The problem isn’t the plans you’re making. They’re both inspiring and show progress. What’s worrying you is how you’ll disentangle yourself from certain longstanding arrangements. Discuss this frankly. Once you’re actually talking things over, you’ll realise others are far more aware of your activities and even future plans than you think.

Virgo August 23 – September 22

As a thorough and cautious Virgo, before you venture into new territory or even spend time with those who you don’t really know, you like to learn whatever you can. But not only are things moving too swiftly for that, in this particular case, experience itself is by far your best teacher.

Libra September 23 – October 22

Only days ago, you were facing pivotal decisions but seemed to have few realistic options. Now things are changing, and where before there was little to explore, each day is offering something new and, often, intriguing. Learn as much as you can about these, conscious there’ll soon be yet other options to consider.

Scorpio October 23 – November 21

Few things are more annoying than, having worked hard to organise a plan, being forced by events to rethink things. Actually, this is no surprise. The recent powerful planetary activity will have shaken things up for every sign, which means exploring various options with others is bound to be informative, if not exciting.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 20

Unsettling if not annoying as last minute changes in plans can be, you really have no choice. In fact, judging by Mercury’s powerful alliance with your ruler Jupiter, every hour is bringing new ideas to discuss. Explore them all, but as there’s more to come later this week, for now, put off solid commitments.

Capricorn December 21 – January 19

While not every Capricorn is tidy, when it comes to making and carrying out plans, you can be obsessively organised. So much you’ll struggle in an effort to keep existing arrangements as they are, so have battled recent changes. Don’t. The more willing you are to make changes, the more you’ll benefit.

Aquarius January 20 – February 17

Planning ahead may be a virtue but, as you’ve undoubtedly noticed, each day is introducing something new, exciting and often unexpected. Disruptive as some of what arises appears to be, make a point of exploring everything. What seems least promising now could, as you learn more, turn out to be fabulous.

Pisces February 18 – March 19

If you have a sense of promise, that’s no surprise. In fact, it’s evidence of your Piscean intuition. You’re sensing the influence of Friday’s powerful link between fortunate Jupiter and your ruler Neptune. However, since what seems good now could get better by then, ensure that all your plans are flexible.
