IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

A Mercury-Jupiter link on your birthday will encourage you to find your voice and use it to create something that boosts your reputation and maybe makes some money as well. Don’t be afraid to step into the spotlight – you will probably enjoy it.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

If you are bold and believe in yourself 100 per cent there is nothing you cannot accomplish this week. Mercury in your sign linked to luck planet Jupiter means anything you turn your hand to will work out for the best – so make it happen.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

If you let others know what it is you desire they will go out of their way to get it for you. They will, of course, expect you to do something equally beneficial for them at some point in the future. You rarely get something for nothing.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

Jupiter in your sign boosts your confidence no end and with your ruling planet Mercury thrown into the cosmic mix as well today your self-belief will carry you to the skies. It’s a long way to fall but you are willing to take the risk.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Pull out all the stops and make the best possible job of what you are working on today, because important people will be watching you closely. If they like what they see there could be a promotion or a salary hike in it for you.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Don’t worry if you have to give up some personal freedom as the new week begins because it will be worth it later on when others reward you for your self-sacrifice. If you show willing over the next 24 hours your reputation will soar.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

A relationship that has been on a downward course for quite some time can still be rescued if you are willing to say “sorry” first. You may not have been talking much to each other lately but you must start a new conversation today.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You seem to believe that the only way to escape your woes is to flee to a place far away but that isn’t the case. You can enjoy a happier existence right where you are by simplifying your daily routine and taking life at a more measured pace.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

If a rival makes accusations against you that are untrue today you must hit straight back at them. You may be tempted to ignore the matter but if you do others might start to believe the accusations have merit. Defend your reputation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

You cannot allow personal feelings to cloud your judgment because if you don’t keep a clear head over the next few days you could lose out financially. This is one of those occasions when you must be ruthlessly logical about what needs to be done.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

You can do a lot today or you can do next to nothing. The choice is your alone to make and neither is better or worse than the other. If you feel like greeting the week at a slower pace that’s fine. It was, after all, a busy weekend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

If you need assistance with what you are working on today then speak up loud and clear. You may be surprised at how many people come running to help you. They may also have some useful suggestions, so be humble and listen to what they say.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

Make it your business today to stand up for someone who is finding it hard to defend themselves against accusations that are either untrue or of no real significance. Your verbal and emotional support could be the lifeline they have been looking for.
