If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Mercury slows down long enough for you to take a birthday break. A week is all that’s needed, but getting away may not be easy. Others continue to make demands. Oblige sensitively, but sensibly – you have your own life to lead. Make the most of professional ambitions in June. In the meantime, if you hear an alarm – it’s the planets giving you a financial wake-up call. It doesn’t matter whether you’re trying to spend it, save it or earn it – money matters become a source of uncertainty. After the 28th, fortunes change.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Saturday 24th
For now, you should enjoy the luxury of having a lull in your life. Next week brings a whirlwind of unusual situations and unexpected changes. In the meantime, use any free time to relax, catch up with friends, pamper with health treatments or simply enjoy moments of inner peace.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Wednesday 28th
Despite your best efforts, a backward moving Mercury seems all too happy to point out life’s limitations. Still, it’ll take more than a tetchy cosmos to choke the greater dream. Use tact when faced with dilemmas. Romantic prospects are electrifying, though stability can’t be assured. If someone is complicating a simple issue, stay solo.
Gemini (May 21 to June 21)
Best Day: Tuesday 27th
Your ruler, Mercury, is out of phase for a couple of weeks and that spells short term trouble. Life may become a tad more complex now, so try to simplify your daily existence by avoiding headaches, stress or physical or mental fatigue. Tackle one thing at a time and don’t make major decisions or purchases.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Sunday 25th
You work hard to keep friendships solid, so it throws you when a good mate seems to be unreliable. Is there someone new vying for their attention? Give them the benefit of the doubt. You can still enjoy their company, even if you don’t feel quite as close as you have in the past.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Saturday 24th
You can’t enjoy a relationship when you don’t know where you stand, and this week’s Mercury retrograde is the trigger to sort out an uncertain issue. Don’t put off a tricky conversation, even if the situation is complicated. It’s not until mid March that the romance tables turn in your favour.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Friday 30th
With Mercury at a standstill this week, projects may be hampered. Someone’s timing is off; or you feel that others are stifling your freedom or deliberately delaying your progress. Nonetheless, you can still maintain focus. For now, short-term projects are more likely to attract. If anything drags on too long, expect frustration.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Tuesday 27th
Pay outstanding bills, reorganise your cupboards and rid yourself of emotional baggage. Slow moving Mercury is prompting you to tie up any loose ends – sooner rather than later. In the same way, it’s not a great week for new ventures. To stay in the planetary flow, delay starting anything new until next month.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 28th
Love may not offer an entirely smooth ride, with some days being just plain scratchy. Should a relationship end, head towards the exit sign knowing it’s for the best. Happier moments, though, could see some single Scorpios in the arms of a new suitor. How delightful!
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Friday 23rd
Even in the toughest work schedule we can come to a halt – because it feels like something’s missing. Very often it will be the things we take for granted, such as friends or family. This week’s Mercury retrograde prompts you to retrieve some of these lost treasures.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Monday 26th
This week’s success rate depends on how well you handle difficult people and situations – but do remember that grievances need to be aired before they can be resolved. Last minute changes of plan could cause you to scatter energies. If entrusted with a secret, don’t disclose it.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Thursday 29th
While your strong constitution doesn’t readily give in to illness, a downfall can be your love of good food and wine. At the best of times, diets come to a sticky, sweet end. Right now, try to cut down on food portions and maintain regular exercise. You’ll feel better for it.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Saturday 24th
Enjoyment features strongly this week, as does your social life. Ditto for romance. If you’re thinking of spending some money, be warned it could turn out to be an expensive few days. Hide the credit cards, or prepare for a monetary meltdown. Alternatively, someone else may do all the spending – but you’ll pick up the cost.
