If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Long forgotten memories resurface this month. At the same time, a crisis might appear in the relationship camp. Exsessive stress, an overload of health warnings and having less ready cash all add to the melee. Thankfully, by August, close partnerships again strike a harmonious note. Relations with family should also look more relaxed. October hints at salvaging finances. Indeed, the rest of your year encourages physical, emotional and spiritual renewal. Though work may demand longer and harder hours, there should also be plenty of opportunity for fun. At work or play, you become determined to make each new day count. Vivid dreams reveal meaningful messages.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Monday 11th
The cosmos encourages the exodus of the troublesome friends who bring you down. You’re also entering a week of deep reflection, where your personal aims and social conscience go under review. Admittedly, you’ve had a few challenging moments in recent times, but you’ve grown beyond earlier limitations. Ariens are ready to try something new.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 13th
Life may continue to feel like an uphill struggle, with external challenges causing frustration. Should things not go to plan, relax. Calm that anxious mind and you’ll find the strength to battle on. From adversity comes victory, and a supreme sense of self satisfaction. It’s only a matter of time before this current crisis eases.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Sunday 10th
Think twice before saying anything in the heat of the moment, or you may regret it. Yes, these are difficult times, but remember we’re all in this together. It’s in our home environment that you’re particularly restless. Some Geminis are at work all day, so they fare better. It’s the home-isolated that are having a particularly hard time.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Tuesday 12th
Don’t know about sticks, but this week it’s verbal stones that could break bones. No bodily harm will come of it, of course, but there’s bound to be some frustration. Someone needs to be the peacemaker. Let it be you. Lead by example, Cancer – it’s a role you usually play well. Of course, there are more challenges than usual to cope with.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Tuesday 12th
Problems have a knack of building in intensity right up to the point of no-return. You’re not your usual tolerant self this week Leo, edging more towards feeling frustrated or irritated. Mostly you stay patient, but we all get a little battle-worn sometimes. Do yourself a favour – withdraw from any conflict if you can. Regroup and recoup.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Thursday 14th
That old self-doubt is back again, but you’ll just have to scrape up your self esteem and paste on your best smile. Most of the trouble is at home, so you’re in for some candid chat if there’s any hope of restoring the peace. Sometimes it’s best to just forgive and forget. That means forgiving yourself, too.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Sunday 10th
Why can’t everyone be as calm as you, Libra? Perhaps world harmony wouldn’t seem so elusive. But don’t worry about the more worriesome issues of the planet just now. There are more urgent matters in your own back yard to attend to. Should someone close request help, offer support. In time, the favour will be repaid ten-fold.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Saturday 9th
During these confusing times, it’s difficult to know what’s really going on. Despite best intentions, what others are saying now may be misleading. In the same way, it’s you who’s being misunderstood. Use this chance to find a solution to problems, but take care you don’t overreact to constructive criticism. Perhaps someone’s just trying to be helpful?
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Friday 8th
With current stress and uncertainty heaving you here, there and everywhere – you’ve a right to feel confused. One minute you’re up, the next…down. If doubt invades your confidence, remember your talents and strengths. You’re loaded with them. Unleash all your wonderful creativity. You may even stumble across a new hobby or career path.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 13th
Money remains a niggling need, but there’s nothing like feeling the pinch to prompt ingenuity. Chances are you’ve been putting off the inevitable and not feeling good about it. Result: the week throws you some lessons in prudence and financial planning. The downside? Excessive focus on finances could rob relationships of their enchantment.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Monday 11th
The past has a cute way of reappearing on your doorstep when you least expect it. If this sounds like a recipe for disaster, don’t worry. It’s simply a case of using your common sense. By late week, many Aquarians find that their cash flow improves. It’s been a long wait, but you may finally be able to pay those overdue bills.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Saturday 9th
Almost everything has its upside – which is well worth remembering this week. The real problem is that you feel a tad dazed or vulnerable. When life becomes this confusing, it can help to put some distance between you and others. Sit quietly, and come to terms with a few home truths. Learn how to turn current circumstances to your advantage.
