If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Because there are so many soul-snipers out there whoโll gun down anything vaguely heartfelt or imaginative, being granted the opportunity to let your true character shine can be rare. This year you aim to thrive. Thereโll be changes of direction, for sure. But one of the remarkable things about you is your amazing tenacity. So if anyone stands a chance of succeeding in what others find a difficult year, itโs you. Just work your magic. In matters of the heart, too, the cosmos holds enough heaven-bound fireworks to light up the southern sky. Laughter, too, will help unload any ancient emotional baggage.
Aries (March 21 โ April 20)
Best Day: Monday 20th
If you suffer minor setbacks, donโt fret. Pursue whatโs working and leave the rest behind. This week spurs a change of image โ not because youโre looking jaded, but because youโre ready to tackle this world on new terms. Your own. And if you can squeeze in enough time for an active social life, all the better. New love could be yours for the taking.
Taurus (April 21 โ May 20)
Best Day: Friday 17th
Although youโre tempted to whip others into action, use gentler methods. Of course itโs frustrating, but slower colleagues need inspiration and support โ not harsh words. Best solution? Inspire with kindness. In the same way, if you need help, itโs likely to arrive from hidden or unexpected sources.
Gemini (May 21 โ June 21)
Best Day: Tuesday 21st
Since the planets may be mischievous enough to conjure up an office romance, avoid flirting if youโre already attached. Tempting as it may be, giving in to your desires may come at too high a cost. But if single and fancy-free โ go right ahead. Mix business with pleasure. The only complication will be the aftermath.
Cancer (June 22 โ July 22)
Best Day: Saturday 18th
When was the last time you felt so fabulously in control? If skills are wanted, theyโll be found. If a vital link is missing, itโs unearthed. To top it off, finances look sharp. So should the cosmos signal the timeโs right for extravagance, donโt argue. Stay amenable for surprising events, especially the loving kind.
Leo (July 23 โ August 23)
Best Day: Sunday 19th
Fear can often hold us back and so often leads to missed opportunities. Donโt give up or change direction this late in the game just because of a few delays โ stick with it, have faith and trust both the heavens and your intuition. Throw your heart and soul into everything you do and success will be yours.
Virgo (August 24 โ September 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 22nd
The cosmos finds you in a meddling mood. Be careful, or you could talk your way into a migraineโs worth of commitment. Some situations donโt need your input โ so get out of the way and trust that others will get on just fine without you. Upside: moneyโs on the increase. Look forward to the increased freedom that extra cash can bring.
Libra (September 23 โ October 23)
Best Day: Monday 20th
With all your energy thrown into work commitments, a breakthrough looks imminent. Some may even be offered a new source of funding this week. Reassuring indeed, as finances have been a problem for quite some time. Bad news: you wonโt be fully cashed-up for a while. Forget the credit cards too; theyโre probably maxed out.
Scorpio (October 24 โ November 22)
Best Day: Friday 17th
You shouldnโt trust others so readily, Scorpio. Cut your losses at the start of the week so that you donโt wade into anyone elseโs psychological cesspool. Thankfully, youโre intuitive enough to recognise any early warning signs, and may have already made an escape plan. The further away, the better.
Sagittarius (November 23 โ December 21)
Best Day: Monday 20th
Hereโs a week when youโre likely to be at your best, both at work and in play. Team effort could help launch you and others towards an exciting new direction. Right now, everyone has something to offer. Share and receive openly, and you should have few regrets. Prepare to make new friends along the way.
Capricorn (December 22 โ January 20)
Best Day: Friday 17th
Hereโs a vivacious week, Capricorn. Friendships flourish, romance awaits. Established couples become more loving, while prospects seem promising for those playing the dating game. So should Venus show up with a flirtatious invitation, youโd be daft to wave her away. Consider it a special reward.
Aquarius (January 21 โ February 18)
Best Day: Thursday 23rd
Donโt assume youโre the sole trustee of all the right answers and donโt dismiss alternative views before theyโre even heard. The planets have sudden shifts of mood and energy this week, and so do you. If thereโs anything important you want to discuss or organise, leave it until weekโs end. Youโre less likely to stir up a hornetโs nest.
Pisces (February 19 โ March 20)
Best Day: Saturday 18th
Itโs one of those weeks, Pisces. Youโre stressed, and really canโt cope with much more. So why not put yourself first for a change? For once, friends and family can fend for themselves. A far more intriguing possibility? New friendship, with romantic potential. Try to enjoy the moment and donโt plan too far ahead.
