IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY
Acknowledging that something isn’t working out is challenging. Yet you’ve been well aware that while you’ve had to invest far more of your time, thought, ideas, possibly money and even passion in certain arrangements, you’re receiving less and less in return. Bizarrely, in your attempts to shore things up, you’ve been neglecting, if not ignoring, other far more promising situations. Not only is it time for a review, it may be time to make some big changes.
Aries March 20 – April 18
Sometimes setbacks are exactly that, obstacles that are forcing you to review what you’re doing or your approach to achieving certain goals. However, the obstacles you’re currently facing are about actually questioning whether what you’re pursuing is worth the time, effort and persistence required or whether it’s time to say farewell.
Taurus April 19 – May 19
You’ll need to say ‘no’, and in a number of situations. This could be unexpectedly complicated. While, in some cases, you’re well aware you must be tough, in others you’ll need to take into account the sensitivity of the issues involved or the actual individual in question.
Gemini May 20 – June 20
By no means have you been secretive. Yet somebody insists that they had no idea certain matters weren’t just important to you, but they’re a priority. The fact is, the individual in question is so self-centred, they pay little attention to anybody else. Keep this in mind for the future.
Cancer June 21 – July 21
Every once in a while, you run into situations that seem destined to go wrong. It would be no surprise if certain arrangements seem that way. The real problem is certain issues, some obvious but others of which you’re unaware. Explore and tackle these now and soon all will be well.
Leo July 22 – August 21
Only days ago, you felt others were bullying you into doing something that wasn’t just of no interest, it would be a waste of time. Since then, however, you’re beginning to realise just how much promise these arrangements or alliances hold. Investigate further. The more you learn, the more excited you’ll be.
Virgo August 22 – September 21
While the errors typical of your ruler Mercury’s retrograde cycle are often discussed, because it’s your ruler, you’ll often experience ups and downs, as well. If so, waste no time on analysis. Once Mercury’s again moving forward, on 3 May, these completely unjustified anxieties will vanish as swiftly as they appeared.
Libra September 22 – October 22
Although the period prior to the Full Moon can be dramatic, usually those heightened feelings vanish swiftly. However, because the recent Full Moon was in Libra, you’ll still be discussing, if not wresting with, the emotions that arose and what you experienced, on your own and, most importantly, with others.
Scorpio October 23 – November 21
You were either being discreet or secretive or, perhaps, a combination of the two. Whatever it was, both the situation itself and the individuals involved have added complexity to already tricky situations. That being the case, now and over the coming weeks, adopt a forthright approach. It will make life a lot easier.
Sagittarius November 22 – December 20
You adapt easily to almost anything. Yet you still tend to react negatively to demands that appear from out of the blue or are rigid, which is exactly what’s coming your way. The irony is, if you can see past that, you’ll learn a lot, and those insights could be life-changing.
Capricorn December 21 – January 18
Obviously, you’re not thrilled that plans you struggled to organise are coming undone. Yet, you’ll realise those arrangements wouldn’t have worked out anyway. The more you learn, the clearer it will be that while, disruptive, these sudden changes are freeing you to focus on exciting, if unexpected, ideas or offers.
Aquarius January 19 – February 17
By no means are you stubborn. However, when you commit to person or a plan, you feel responsible for ensuring things work out as intended. As you may already have realised, during this rather chaotic week, this isn’t just unlikely, you’ll probably have to rethink things, and probably at the last minute.
Pisces February 18 – March 19
You don’t think of yourself as secretive. Yet you simply haven’t mentioned several matters to others, mostly because you knew they’d be upsetting and, worse, the individuals in question could do nothing about them. Yet, from their perspective, you’re keeping them from knowing vital facts. Discuss these openly. You’ll be glad you did.
