If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
This is truly an “I am” year – a time when you’ll not take a back seat to others. Neither will you be inclined towards moderation or self-denial. Creativity’s enhanced, but there’s no telling exactly how or where you’ll direct your talents. Sexual passions soar, but you may feel restricted by family commitments. Unappealing tasks may, therefore, be ignored. Not to worry. It won’t do too much harm to let your energies roam every now and then.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Sunday 24th
You’ve been craving some time out – to leave work out of sight, and mind. Finally, the cosmos grants you permission to do just that. Even if it’s just for this final week of 2017, see to your own wish list. So go ahead, Aries – pamper, and enjoy ongoing festivities. One warning: prepare for a cash meltdown.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Friday 22nd
This is more like it. A week to indulge in the pleasures of life. You’re in the mood for decadence and delight – or just being in the company of those you love. An image update boosts confidence. Don’t be surprised if you receive romantic invitations. Let the year’s stresses fade away.
Gemini (May 21 to June 21)
Best Day: Wednesday 27th
People love your lively chat, Gemini. You can talk about almost anything like it’s the cutting edge of conversation. Just avoid talking about money – or you could face some heated discussion over how you’ve managed to torch the remainder of your credit rating. Best excuse? The silly season, of course!
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Tuesday 26th
Work goes for a bit of a wander right now. Hardly surprising. It is the Christmas season, after all. With the emphasis on family concerns, a happy home life takes priority over most matters. Venus also encourages financial flamboyance, so look forward to fun times ahead.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Monday 25th
Togetherness is the main theme right now. If single, expect extra invitations. If already coupled, then this week seems to bring you much closer. Even better news? You’re one of the few zodiac signs who won’t suffer too much financial stress this week. That’s because you’ve spent wisely.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Saturday 23rd
Kick off your shoes and let the events of this past year disappear into the void. Tears have flowed, but prayers have been answered too. The bottom line: you’ve survived, and emerged stronger and wiser for it. So step out and treat yourself to some seasonal luxuries.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Sunday 24th
Genuine happiness is a blessing. This party week offers the potential for a magical moment or two. In romance – life seems untroubled. In business, problems are more easily resolved. Meanwhile, even home life seems manageable. Happy holidays!
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Friday 22nd
Time spent with your family should be fun, so long as parents or other close relatives don’t try to pull rank. Don’t take the bait. They’re just being family, and they’re probably not going to change in a hurry. Money’s easier to come by, though. Just as well, at this time of year.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Thursday 28th
It’s a week when any sense of discipline disappears under a pile of gift-wrapped presents. Sexually, the cosmos sends adoring thoughts around your love sector, leaving you unexpectedly spoilt for choice. Watch your expectations, though, as this isn’t a rock-solid phase. But what better time for an unscheduled fling?
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Saturday 23rd
Cast aside all your usual caution and bring out all that’s bright and beautiful in yourself. You’re in the mood for love, Capricorn – and what better time of year for it! Outdoor activities also appeal. And with Lady Luck on side, taking a chance could pay off in wonderful ways.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Monday 25th
It’s time to stop work, Aquarius – and allow yourself some seasonal liberties. Even though you’re coming to the party later than most, you gain in the attraction stakes as Venus puts together a killer new image and attitude. You’re less discriminating than usual. Fewer inhibitions can only mean a lot more fun.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 26th
You’ve reached an important turning point in your life, and change is inevitable. That’s OK, you can cut your losses in the new year. This final week brings a change of mood, and much excitement. And what better time of year to cut the purse strings? Let loose with the cash, credit and common sense.
