IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

As much as you enjoy life’s dramatic twists and turns, deep down you’re a creature of habit. You thrive on the familiar rituals of each day, and regular events with family and friends. Yet the clash between your ruler the Sun and Uranus indicates surprises, most delightful but all disrupting your routine. While your impulse may be to battle these, they’re about breakthroughs, although how may not yet be clear. Still, explore these. The resulting discoveries will thrill you.

Aries March 20 – April 19

Sometimes differences with others are no more than that, a conflicting perspective on important matters. Those you’re facing now, however, are about misunderstandings, but often those you’re unaware of. Begin talking these matters through in detail, and you’ll soon discover where those issues are and what needs to be discussed in detail.

Taurus April 20 – May 20

This week’s eclipsed Full Moon doesn’t actually take place until Friday. However, it accents the structure of your life and is about powerful, if not overdue, changes. This suggests you may already be considering, if not juggling, a range of new ideas or approaches to your setup, at home or at work.

Gemini May 21 – June 20

Although every sign is influenced by Mercury’s retrograde cycle, which begins on the 26th, because it’s your ruling planet, you’ll feel it doubly. Annoying as the confusion and minor issues it triggers may be, they’ll give you a rare opportunity to define them, then talk them through with those who’re involved.

Cancer June 21 – July 21

On the 22nd, the Sun moved into the part of your chart that accents what’s of value in your life, from your assets and money to your time, and even your affections. All, in some way, matter. And with events raising questions about these, it’s time to review a few and make changes in others.

Leo July 22 – August 22

Unsettling as sudden changes in certain longstanding arrangements may be, deep down, you’re relieved they’re taking place. This will force certain unspoken issues out into the open. This, in turn, means you can finally discuss these frankly with those whose support you’ll need, and explore short term ideas and long range solutions.

Virgo August 23 – September 22

Some Virgos avoid clashes with others for fear of causing upset, but as many find a heated exchange actually helps clear the air. While that might be true, judging by this week’s tricky planetary activity, you’re better off doing a lot of looking and listening, and keeping your thoughts to yourself.

Libra September 23 – October 22

As much as you long for the support of others when making tough decisions or facing tricky issues, you often find yourself rejecting their suggestions. That’s because, in truth, you’re not really seeking their advice as much as you’re looking for somebody who’ll be a sounding-board for the ideas you have in mind.

Scorpio October 23 – November 21

Judging by this week’s powerful aspects involving the planet of innovation, Uranus, and Pluto, which is all about transformation, even seemingly simple elements of your life could change. And for the better. True, initially these will seem a serious shake up. But the more you learn, the more intrigued you’ll be.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 20

Annoying as the errors typical of Mercury’s retrograde cycle, which begins on the 26th, may be, they can also lead to fascinating encounters. This is especially the case now, because Mercury’s positioned in the part of your chart that’s about broadening your horizons. What, or who, you encounter could be magical.

Capricorn December 21 – January 19

Every once in a while you forget that not everybody is as thorough as you are when it comes to dealing with practical matters or hard facts. Certain individuals will pretend something they hope is true, actually is. Be wary of this. Believing in their fantasies could cause you serious problems.

Aquarius January 20 – February 17

Being one of the three air signs, you’ve an instinctive understanding of the purpose of even very unanticipated events. Since that’s what this week is all about, and these twists and turns influence everybody, you’ll not only be reviewing developments in your own life, but events in the lives of others, as well.

Pisces February 18 – March 19

This is a contentious week during an unsettled period. Worrying as that sounds, the range of difficulties being acknowledged, faced and dealt with will go a long way to relieving problems that seemed unchanging. The next step is to fully accept what’s coming to light, to the extent you’re ready to take action.
