If Today is Your Birthday
Don't be fooled by your own beliefs. Rather, be convinced by the tangible facts, and make informed choices. This is especially true of people: you must trust them based on their track record rather than your gut. If things ever seem to slip out of control, get a grip immediately and set things right. Use your mind and you'll make real progress this year. You share a birthday with Vangelis, Marina Sirtis and Lucy Lawless.
|
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- You seem eager to extend your goodwill to someone, though you need to use more than your intuition. Give the situation time to play out, and see how they actually deliver in real life. This is not a case of hope, faith and charity. You want tangible, measurable results. |
|
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Hold off on making commitments and important decisions till the Moon enters your birth sign right before noon; or better still, eat lunch first. You'll feel steadier on your feet and have better information to work with. The key to happiness is making no promises you cannot keep. |
|
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Be careful what you say in public, or to anyone with a tendency to gossip. Your words could be used against you in a way that's unfair. You even might resist the temptation to say much at all; write in your notebook or send photos you snap on your phone. It's much safer. |
|
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- You might hear something today, and tomorrow decide that it made you angry. This would be a good reason to delay any commitments, or offering opinions, on what turns out to be partial or biased information. You have plenty of wholesome, productive goals to work toward. |
|
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- You're getting ready to bust a move related to your career, though if possible take the rest of the day to get yourself organized. By morning you'll be feeling calmer, more confident and clearer in your goal. That's the state of mind you want: not edgy but solid and self-assured. |
|
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Don't say too much. That might mean keeping your lips sealed about your plans, particularly if they involve money or shared finances. You need to get the whole story, and that's going to take a few days and a touch of luck. You'll get your clue through an unlikely source. |
|
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- You'll feel better if you admit to yourself how important sex is to you. It's about more than relationships, more than communication, and much more than a need to validate yourself. Right now, you need physical contact more than true love. Reach out to someone you trust. |
|
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- You might ease off on any effort or over-exertion at work. There are, to put it mildly, some situations you just cannot control. You need information more than power. A short conversation with someone in a position of authority could go a long way to clearing the air. |
|
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Someone may make an off-hand remark that solves a vexing riddle for you. All the king's men may not have a clue, but a young person who observes the obvious may offer the tip that you need. Listen carefully, and remember what you hear before it evaporates. |
|
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Think in terms of creativity rather than success; of pleasure rather than power; of ideas rather than persuasion. That is to say, emphasize the fun aspects of what you're doing for its own sake. That's more important than your business plan. Happy accidents are the order of the day. |
|
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You seem to be thinking one thing and feeling another. I suggest you stick to what your body is telling you. Your mind is onto something, but it's not your highest priority. Don't rush this. Your physical body is on a slower clock than your lightning-speed mind. |
|
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- It's time for a conversation with yourself, and possibly a professional you trust, to sort out your financial goals, your career goals and how you use your time. The past few weeks have been unusually eventful. You need a clear understanding of where you stand with yourself. |
