If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Last year, you stayed calm and did your best. No one could possibly have asked for more. In 2020, you make up for lost ground. One hint: work on your presentation. It’s all in the way you tell it and sell it. Even if presented with the occasional hurdle, know that you’re a stayer who’s in for the win. When you believe in yourself, others do too. Through March and onwards, the cosmos invites singles to dance to a wilder beat. If feeling lost for moves let someone else take your hand and show you how. Couples balance professional responsibilities with an active love life, perhaps with room for a new-born as well.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 28th
It’s an ambitious week, but if you want something done – do it yourself. Delegate a project, and it may never be completed. So for now, it’s best to fly solo. Others are surprised by your sudden solitary approach, but at least you’ll get end results. Finances? They suggest an exciting detour – as does a very close well-wisher.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 29th
You often produce your best results when working in a team effort. Of course, it takes the right combination of people to bring about success, and this is where some problems might arise. Finances, however, promise a much needed boost. Or someone close does well in the cash stakes, and you get to share some of their spoils.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Sunday 26th
Why people behave the way they do can be a mystery. Trouble is, at times the most bizarre behaviour comes from those you thought you knew well. This week could shine some light on someone’s puzzling actions, which puts you in a better position to deal with the issues at hand. But should trouble flare, act with diplomacy.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Sunday 26th
For some time now, you’ve suffered upheaval. Still, the experience hasn’t been all bad, as you’ve gained the gifts of wisdom, tenacity and tolerance. The planets now also announce a major change and escalating confidence. Socially, you sizzle. Romance wins a generous time slot, with enough allure to conjure up sensational summer love.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Thursday 30th
This week it’s a case of lucky with money but, perhaps, unlucky in love. Career ambitions should proceed as planned, but your satisfaction may be slightly clouded by trouble with someone you love. Perhaps you’ve been devoting too much time to work, and not enough time for play. Don’t take loved ones for granted.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Monday 27th
Virgos are fond of fresh starts, and this week you’ll either feel the urge to expand your living quarters or throw out some of the accumulated mess. Or you may decide to take a quick break. Suddenly too, everyone’s unusually cooperative – to the point of making you wonder where the catch lies. Perhaps your relaxed mood is contagious.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Friday 24th
Librans live the paradox of being people-orientated but are easily stifled when confined. So, if someone tries to bolt a ball and chain around your thoughts or actions, you may be tempted to make a run for it. Truth is, some consider your plans to be unrealistic – but don’t forget these are your dreams. Go make them happen.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Saturday 25th
Help can often come from mysterious quarters and we don’t always know who’s pulling the strings on our behalf, or why. If this is happening, don’t question it. Finances improve as the week progresses. So when the cosmos signals it’s time for a spend-up – don’t argue. Half of life’s negatives are due to our failure to act on the positives.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Thursday 30th
It’s the ethereal, rather than the material that captures your imagination this week. Now that the pressure’s off work for a while, the focus steers towards spirituality and home. Creativity, love and children is where your attention falls. You work hard for your family, so take time to enjoy them too. Dreams have significant meanings.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 28th
We live on a planet where not everyone will always agree. End result? A battle of wills. Words may be spoken in haste and in hindsight, with regret. Not to worry – time heals all. The true test, however, comes in learning to overcome obstacles. When one way is blocked, find another. When one method fails, devise a new one.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Saturday 25th
What you love so much – work, career and family – have all been in a long process of transformation, and it’s been a struggle. Cast off those worries, Aquarius – as all that heaviness starts to lift. The planets offer fresh insights, and new solutions to old problems. Your life is still up for restructure – but in the best possible way.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 29th
A secret is exposed, Pisces. While you may feel a tad indignant at having your psyche placed on such public display – avoid any temptation to retaliate. This is not a time to shoot whatever grace you have left in the foot. The trouble with confronting bullies is that you risk acting the same way. Be the better person.
