If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
You’ve come a long way, Virgo. Take time to reflect on past actions, acknowledge your progress and realise that the best is yet to come. You’re offered a fabulous year, surrounded by love, friendship and prosperity. At work, the more you do - the more you get to do. There’s also the notion of karma. Whatever way you look at it, this next year the cosmos rewards your efforts. You’ll be super busy, but that’s just fine because in your mind - challenge is something to be conquered, not feared. For some, an unexpected cash boost helps clear old debts.
Aries (March 21 - April 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 1st
You have the enviable ability to catch hold of yourself in times of chaos and do a quick reality check. Just as well, as life’s been a busy blur of activity recently - and you’ve probably made more changes than usual. Unnerving, but certainly exhilarating. Just don’t be guilted or seduced into following another’s dreams.
Taurus (April 21 - May 20)
Best Day: Friday 27th
If you’re asked to tend to a partner’s or family needs, don’t oblige out of guilt. You have your own life to lead and sainthood is a tiring road to follow. If you need some clear thinking space - perhaps a few days break might let you reflect from a distance. The planets encourage you to spread your wings and fly - but preferably somewhere quiet.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21)
Best Day: Thursday 2nd
Get ready for special treats to come your way. Enjoy every moment of feeling pampered and spoiled. At work, too, your patience should finally be rewarded as an important breakthrough is achieved. A timely bonus could also make it easier to pay debts. Bills first, luxuries later. Sometimes, everything just seems to fall into place.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22)
Best Day: Saturday 28th
You’re probably still confused, not quite certain whether a recent event was a delightful dream, a nightmare or just simply fate. Confronted by surprise or suspicion, this week forces you to explore new dimensions of your talents, inner truths and affections. Out of this intense transformation you will emerge, in many ways - reborn.
Leo (July 23 - August 23)
Best Day: Wednesday 1st
This week becomes downright frenzied - a time when no one quite knows what everyone else is up to, or why. But this is pretty much the case when you pitch a group of power planets up against intense Leo emotions. Trying to enlist help is a waste of time. Do what you do best, and take charge.
Virgo (August 24 - September 22)
Best Day: Monday 30th
It’s a Virgo kind of week. The Sun is on the move, and so are you. Don’t worry too much about formalities - it’s your spirit that others will notice. Should you find yourself up against equally determined minds, stop and listen. You could actually learn from others’ opinions. But it’s not all work. Social invitations no longer need polite avoidance.
Libra (September 23 - October 23)
Best Day: Tuesday 31st
After walking on financial quicksand for so long, this week brings you comfortably back on solid ground. You’re also better able to appreciate how previous setbacks served you. With hindsight, you can turn past mistakes into future triumphs. Even recent health issues should start to ease. Find what you love doing, and enjoy it.
Scorpio (October 24 - November 22)
Best Day: Monday 30th
Now’s the time to sit back and put your feet up for a while as you start to reap the benefits of what you have sown. The road that you took to get here certainly had its ups and downs - all the more reason to take a well-earned break. What’s yours is yours, and no one is going to take that away from you. You can spend a little, too.
Sagittarius (November 23 - December 21)
Best Day: Sunday 28th
When we look at other people, we see many of their qualities in seemingly random ways. Yet the qualities that we see in the those around us are often related to the traits that exist in us. ‘Like attracts like’ is one of the spiritual laws of the universe. The question is, who are you drawn to this week?
Capricorn (December 22 - January 20)
Best Day: Friday 27th
It’s a perfect week for multitasking; a time when few details - no matter now minor, escape your attention. A growing pile of publications and emails clutter your environment. Relationships with siblings and close family could also improve. Travel’s on the agenda, especially short day trips related to work or family matters.
Aquarius (January 21 - February 18)
Best Day: Tuesday 31st
You might want to put some space between yourself and a barrage of conflicting opinions. Be smarter in your decision making, especially when it comes to business or purchases. To maintain stability at work and home, stay patient and remain receptive to alternative viewpoints: honest discussion beats hostility any time.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Best Day: Sunday 28th
There’s a huge happening in the heavens, Pisces. You've just completed a long cycle in which priorities revolved around relationships. Finally, you can concentrate on your own needs. Indeed, you've a deep instinct that something special is on its way - including a complete overhaul of self image. Expect a leaner, more fit, you.
