HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Whatever it is you want most from life you have the power to reach out and take it. A new moon on your birthday means you only have to think of a desire, and keep that thought firmly in your mind, to see it come true. Make it happen!

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

The Leo new moon makes this an exciting time to be an Aries as it invites you to unleash your creativity and give substance to your vision. Some people will say you are expecting too much of yourself but they are wrong – for you there are no limits!

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

You must resist the temptation to get involved in other people’s private affairs. Even if you truly believe you have the answer to their problems it is highly unlikely they will thank you for poking your nose in. Let them learn for themselves.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

The path you have been on of late has been difficult but you have proved time and again that you are up to the job. Another challenge is about to come your way and there is no doubt at all you will tackle it with purpose and poise.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

If you find yourself at odds with the accepted way of doing things that may be a good thing. This is one of those occasions when those who possess the ability to approach problems from unusual angles will come up with match-winning ideas.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

The new moon in your sign will encourage you to take the kind of risks that most people steer clear of, but you’re not most people you’re a Leo and that makes a world of difference. As far as you are concerned life is too short to play safe.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

You need to answer two questions. First, are you strong enough to take on your shoulders a responsibility that would crush most people? Second, is there a good reason why you should take it on? Only proceed if the answer to both questions is Yes.


Missed one of your horoscopes? Here are the most recent days’ forecasts:


LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

There are so many opportunities available to you now that it may be hard to decide which of them to focus on. If you are smart you will choose no more than two objectives, at least one of which must benefit other people as much as yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

If you have been looking for a chance to move up on the work front it should soon be here. Keep your eyes and ears open and don’t be afraid to put your hand up if someone in authority asks for volunteers. It could be the making of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Something in your life is about to change in such a profound way that you won’t be the same person that you were before. It may be a material change but more likely it will be a change in the way you choose to interact with the wider world.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

A development that comes out of nowhere will take you by surprise this week but you will recover your wits quickly and find ways to take advantage of it. When you get an opportunity to move ahead you are not the sort to waste it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

A few harsh words may have been spoken in recent weeks but it is not too late to make amends and get a relationship back to how it was before. Be smart enough and big enough to accept that the first move needs to come from you.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

Because there is a new moon in the area of your chart that governs your everyday routines this is the ideal time to swap things around and come up with some fresh ideas. Anyone who says you are a creature of habit will be proved very wrong indeed.
