IF IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY

The link between dynamic Mars and practical Saturn, on your birthday, points to cutting through obstacles and achieving even complex goals. Yet with these planets spanning the most intuitive angles of your chart, you’ll want to temporarily ignore your Virgo logic and instead rely on your instincts or intuition. That may seem unwise. But what you learn from this won’t just be informative regarding those decisions, you’ll develop a more powerful relationship with the intuitive side of your nature.

Aries March 20 – April 18

It’s rare you get hung up on what are really minor issues. But several recent situations were so unfair you’re still annoyed, enough you want to put things right. You could. However, you’d be better off making these part of the past, and concentrating on current, and rather thrilling, ideas or offers.

Taurus April 19 – May 19

Long ago you realised certain individuals love making changes, simply for the sake of it. Now their plans are as ridiculous as they are badly timed. What’s more, while these will have some impact on your life, decisions are theirs to make. Ultimately, however, you could learn to love these bizarre ideas.

Gemini May 20 – June 20

Few things exasperate you more than those who just can’t let arrangements take form gradually, that is, to respond to events as they unfold. But not everybody is as comfortable as you are with ongoing change. The trick is to include them in discussions but avoid even mentioning lasting arrangements, at least, for now.

Cancer June 21 – July 21

There’s no single right or wrong way to say a firm ‘no’ to somebody who’s being persistent. This means that in certain of the situations you’re currently facing, and there seem to be several, you may have to experiment. The secret is to persist, trying out various forms of refusal until one is recognised.

Leo July 22 – August 21

Once you understand this is a week of change, and mostly on a daily basis, you won’t wonder why plans made one day come undone the next. The trick is to organise things, mostly because you must, but also to avoid wasting time on details. Instead, ensure they’re flexible enough to alter easily.

Virgo August 22 – September 21

Even when the situations you’re facing are challenging, you’ll do your best to remain positive. This applied particularly to recent seriously challenging issues. But certain individuals seem to think that stress gives them a right to be difficult, if not just plain nasty. Discuss this, clearly and in brief. But do speak up.

Libra September 22 – October 22

Urgent as certain matters seem, take it slowly. With the Sun and the retrograde Mercury both positioned in the most strategic portion of your chart, the more time you take investigating the facts and, even more, reflecting on your own priorities, the more potential issues you’ll discover and deal with.

Scorpio October 23 – November 21

After a week or so of seriously challenging situations, you’re both feeling bruised and wondering what can be done about recent setbacks. Tempting as it is to try to regain lost ground, things are moving on swiftly. What you regard as being of serious importance now will, within days, become considerably less significant.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 20

Obviously, you’d prefer to tackle and deal with tasks swiftly. But between the recent eclipsed New Moon and the fact Mercury is retrograde, and triggering mistakes and misunderstandings, you’re better off taking things slowly and, even more, double checking details. This may slow your pace but will prevent time consuming errors.

Capricorn December 21 – January 18

Putting you, and your interests, first is vital. Over the past few weeks, a range of tricky situations has meant focusing on others and their needs. While you knew this was right, at the same time you were forced to neglect certain personal matters and obligations. You can now make up for lost time.

Aquarius January 19 – February 17

Although the eclipsed Full Moon in your sign was two weeks ago, the ideas and events triggered by the recent eclipsed New Moon will have raised issues and brought about unexpectedly informative discussions. These will add vital, but missing, facts. Yet, at the same time, you’ll discover you’ve further, pivotal, questions.

Pisces February 18 – March 19

Someone gives everybody the impression that they’re sensitive, so much that confrontations can and often do upset them. That’s a tall tale, one they tell as a way of dominating the situation and, ultimately, having things their own way. Speak your mind. They’ll not only survive, they’ll talk things over frankly.
