HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

A Venus-Uranus link on your birthday will tempt you to push boundaries and take chances this year. It may also bring into your life a person who challenges your values in some way. They can teach you a lot but you don’t have to believe every word they say.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

The temptation to break rules and cut corners today will be strong and it’s unlikely you will be able to resist it. Hopefully nothing bad will come of it but if someone in a position of authority gets upset you will have to admit your guilt.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

The fact that certain people have not been pulling their weight is not an excuse for you to do less, in fact it is an invitation to do even more so the powers that be can see you are a cut above everyone else. Their laziness is your opportunity.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Now that your ruling planet Mercury has ended its retrograde phase you can safely make an important decision regarding your career. You have thought about it a lot over the past few weeks – now turn those thoughts into a plan for action.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

This is not the right time for second thoughts – whatever it is you decided to start doing a couple of weeks ago is what you must focus on now with the absolute belief that it CAN be made to work. Have confidence in your own abilities.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

The message of the charts today is that you must do whatever takes your fancy and completely ignore those who say you are being irresponsible. Maybe they are right, maybe you are, but if you play safe now you will regret it later on.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Make an effort to be nice to everyone over the next 24 hours, even to people who clearly don’t deserve it. Their words and actions must not be allowed to influence you to the extent that you change your ways of dealing with the world.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

If you need help of any kind today you must speak up and let friends and colleagues know. Asking for assistance is not a sign of weakness but a sign that you are aware of your own limitations – and in a very real sense that is a strength.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Your mind may be full of good ideas but you cannot make use of them all, so decide what two or three things inspire you the most and focus on those alone. Better still, focus on a single goal and only move on from it when it’s been reached.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

If your conscience tells you that what a friend is doing is wrong then you must speak up and let them know. You don’t have to make a huge issue of it, and you should certainly keep it between the two of you, but silence is not an option.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

You have never been one of the herd or the mob and there is no reason why you should change your ways now. In fact, if you are smart you will observe how the majority of people are behaving and choose a very different course for yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Whatever challenges you face over the next 24 hours you can find ways to overcome them. It may even be the case that because you are forced to come up with new solutions you are able to turn some of those challenges to your advantage.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

It may feel as if nothing is beyond you but don’t start thinking you are invincible and can do as you please because the universe will see that as an invitation to prove you wrong. Never forget that you are human like everyone else!
