If you celebrate your birthday this week, you share with:
Your Year Ahead
Pisceans instinctively feel a year of success ahead; but you may also be questioning whether you’re up to it. You know what they say – ‘if in doubt, fake it until you make it.’ Sounds like sensible advice to me. At least you’ll look in control. After all that, May finds you a tad weary, so retreat somewhere secluded in order to realign mind, body and soul. June brings a strong emphasis on money and property – a great time to consider moving home. Cash in on September’s financial opportunities too, when a project initiated a year ago starts to exceed all expectations.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Sunday 28th
Don’t assume you’re the sole trustee of all the right answers and don’t dismiss alternative views before they’re even heard. The planets have sudden shifts of mood and energy this week, and so do you. If there’s anything important you want to discuss or organise, leave it until week’s end. You’re less likely to stir up a hornet’s nest.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Saturday 27th
You might be a tad snappy this week, especially if someone is trying to steal your glory. Or if someone is behaving badly, jealousy’s probably to blame. Try not to get too caught up in the drama. Romantically, there’s not much stirring in the heavens but, surprisingly, you don’t mind. You definitely need some time to simply chill.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Monday 1st
During these confusing times, it’s difficult to know what’s really going on. Despite best intentions, what others are saying may be misleading. In the same way, it could be you who’s being misunderstood. Use this chance to find solutions to problems, but take care you don’t overreact to constructive criticism. Perhaps someone’s just trying to be helpful?
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 3rd
Few people will totally agree with your plans this week and may not like what you have to offer. Don’t try to force your views. The best thing is to avoid discussions where you feel questions or accusations are pointed at you. Instead, follow your own dreams and allow others to have theirs. Not everyone beats to the same drum.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Saturday 27th
It’s strange how things can improve once you decide to surrender your worries to the universe. This next week should bring progress on a matter that’s been causing you worry or discomfort. Ironically, this comes at a time when the issue in question hardly seems to matter any more. Or so you thought.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Friday 26th
Start collecting property listings. Looks like a house move is in your future, and you’re primed to make this new living space extra intriguing. But when it comes to relationships – it’s not looking steady. Some Virgos are wondering if they might be better off alone. Where money is concerned, it’s best to stay prudent. Don’t spend what you can’t afford.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Wednesday 3rd
It’s one of those weeks, Libra. You’re stressed, and really can’t cope with much more. But one of the remarkable things about you is your amazing ingenuity. Sure, there may be a roadblock or two, but your innate GPS should instinctively steer you towards unmapped detours. Laughter, too, will help settle any excessive stress.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Thursday 4th
You become ambitious, with a growing awareness of your special talents. In doing so, unhappy conditions are no longer tolerated. Just don’t assume total authority on every topic at hand. It’s a sure bet that someone with more knowledge will eventually call you to question. In the meantime, bank balances need to stay healthy.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Friday 26th
If you’ve been putting off a tough conversation, you might be forced to do just that. Of course you’d prefer to skirt around the facts – but this week you can’t escape reality. It’s a sobering time, but also a chance to own up to your own culpability. Just don’t try to compensate with your overly-caustic wit, as your words might seem dark in tone.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 2nd
You may be tempted to shift the blame onto others and why not, when everyone else is doing the same? It’s a week where there’s little room to manoeuvre. No one in particular is at fault. It’s more a case of each for themselves. And you have every right to follow suit. The upside: business and pleasure entwine. Delightfully so.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Thursday 4th
Co-operation comes easily this week. You know which buttons to push to get others moving in the right direction without upsetting their sense of independence. Support comes to you from an unexpected source without you having to ask for it. Even an old rival may come over to your side.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Friday 26th
Endless stress has chipped away at the Piscean spirit. Right now, a good portion of humanity is feeling very tetchy, with many brewing up to a tiff. You could save yourself problems by taking a few days break, alone. Sometimes this current call for social isolation comes in handy. The other trick is to become invisible. Tread softly.
