HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

It’s time to do something that you have thought deeply about for months, maybe even years. There can be no more excuses: your birthday chart indicates that the success you crave is now within your grasp – all you have to do is reach out and seize it.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You will be incredibly sharp today – nothing will escape your attention and no one will be allowed to get away with saying things you know are untrue. It may not make you any new friends but it will keep your money and your reputation safe.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Your ability to think on your feet and make snap decisions that turn out to be correct will be enhanced today, especially on the work front where your senses are so well tuned to what’s going on around you that rivals won’t stand a chance.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

If a friend or colleague says something negative about the state of the world today you must counter it with your own long list of reasons to be cheerful. The brighter the future looks the more some people seem determined to focus on the dark side.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

There are a lot of wild ideas flying around at the moment, so keep your wits about you and don’t believe every fantastic new thing that you hear. Others can get carried away if they so wish but you must keep your feet on the ground.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

If someone in a position of authority gives you a hard time today you won’t hesitate to give them a hard time back. The upside of your reaction will be that they think twice in future before provoking you again. As for the downside, there isn’t one!

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Don’t waste even a moment of your precious time chasing after a dream that can never come true. This is one of those occasions when no matter how strongly you might imagine a certain future for yourself it is destined to remain just that – imaginary.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You prefer to trust people rather than doubt them but the current cosmic picture warns that one particular person is now deliberately trying to confuse you, so be on your guard and keep them at arm’s length so long as your doubts about them remain.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

Avoid disputes if you can today but, if they cannot be sidestepped, make sure you get your point of view across loud and clear. Once you have done that, let others know you are now moving on and won’t be mentioning the topic again.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Although you may have to work on something that bores you today you can still find ways to enjoy the process. Try making a contest of it – pit yourself against those you are working alongside to see who can do the very best job.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

You are in no mood to compromise and anyone who expects you to meet them halfway is going to be disappointed. You are in such a dynamic frame of mind at the moment that you will refuse to settle for second best under any circumstances.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Cosmic activity in some of the more sensitive areas of your chart warns you could easily overreact today, especially on the work front where you will see any questioning of your methods as a challenge to your integrity. It’s really not that important.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

You will have some brilliant ideas over the next few days and if you focus on the best of them there is no limit to what new areas of creativity might open up for you. Ignore the critics and the cynics, who are clearly jealous of your potential.
