If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Set out into this new year confident that somebody up there likes you; so different from recent months when, against all odds you’ve had to survive several crises. December brings a swan song for one particular aspect in your life. A career connection may dissolve, a friend may relocate, or you might move. Whatever occurs, take it in your stride. The adage “when one door closes another opens” rings true. Leave all the trauma behind, Sagittarius. There are many new opportunities out there, just begging for the taking. Jupiter helps by sneaking you into the right place at the right time. The rest is up to you.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Sunday 5th
If recent events have left you disheartened, remember that few situations are set in stone. When one way is blocked, find another. Life constantly shifts and changes Aries, as the week ahead sets to prove. The upside: there should be more joy in your relationships, as well as the motivation to find better work prospects.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 7th
Everyone has their own unique perspective about how things have happened. Before you leap to conclusions – untangle any confusion first, or you’ll never know the real facts. Important personal decisions made this week mark a fresh start. Who or what you choose to embrace will influence your life for years to come.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Sunday 5th
You long to confide in someone, but you’re not sure who to trust. Holding your cards too close to your chest isn’t the best idea either, since you need someone to help you process all those confused thoughts. Just don’t call that gossipy friend, or someone you casually know. Dial up a true confidante. You could also book a spa session to simply relax.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Monday 6th
A revitalised Sun steps forward and, with it, Cancerians rise like a phoenix from the ashes. Take this as your cue to step back into the limelight. Relationships worries and career setbacks start to become a distant memory. You’ve triumphed over tragedy, now you can get back to what you do best – enjoying this lovely world of ours.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Friday 3rd
This week could find you a little wiser, and much happier. For some, this relates to work matters. If so, put forward projects – no matter how daunting they seem. Thanks to a single-minded Sun, other Leos look to resolve a long standing mystery. A sudden epiphany, perhaps, could stir that special “a’ha” moment.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Saturday 4th
Don’t let it get to you, Virgo. If this week runs more like a comedy of errors, try to laugh with every turn. If it all becomes too confusing, things will just run amuck – so whatever you’ve had planned may not happen. This needn’t be a disaster, even if it is unscheduled. If still pushed for direction, be inspired by your amazing creativity.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Tuesday 7th
If you have anything to announce to the world, do it now. You’re in the mood to tell it like it is. Insights come out of the blue, so give yourself permission to dream big. At the same time, be sure to involve others. Network your way towards success. Just be sure to give everyone equal attention to avoid hurt feelings.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 8th
Some extra cash should finally arrive, encouraging a new image and a happier social life. But despite most things going to plan, the week may still throw the occasional curve ball. If battling against an authority figure, stay in control. Bullies will always try to rob you of your rights. Best solution? Simply step away.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Friday 3rd
Be assertive, Sagittarius. Extract yourself from everyone’s beck and call and teach them self-management. You have your own needs to attend to. If something’s no longer working, you’re probably ready to make changes. A tough ask, perhaps, but by discarding outworn attitudes, you’ll be carrying less baggage – making life easier.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 8th
A kindred spirit may present an exciting proposal or opportunity. Sure, you prefer to be your own unique mastermind. Intellectual, and sometimes stubborn, Capricorns like to have the first idea and the last word, but this is one time when you should at least consider another viewpoint. Projects move slower than usual, but there’s no real rush anyway.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Saturday 4th
Life suddenly seems less stressful for many Aquarians. Daily worries give way to a sense of calm and security. Increased self-awareness also brings a deeper understanding of what you truly want from life. And you’re more willing to share. Your cosmic reward? The more you give, the more you gain.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Thursday 9th
Recent planetary shenanigans may have left you feeling a tad overwhelmed But this week helps lift exhaustion, or sagging spirits. To top it off, finances look sharper than they have been for a while. So should the cosmos signal the time’s right for extravagance, don’t argue. Stay amenable for surprising events.
