If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Now, here’s a year that holds the promise of success. So when unexpected offers come in, you’ll be keen to take advantage. Your emotional strength and determination also makes a powerful package; and any new study will give you the substance to follow through. By year’s end, prosperity surrounds your home and family – care of a timely bonus or good fortune brought by a female friend or associate. The sale or purchase of property could also help to increase wealth. Meanwhile, love interests also flourish. Singles are offered more choice – couples become more intimate. Make room in your diary for a trip for two.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Monday 26th
There’s no shame in moments of weakness. You feel vulnerable, as you’ve been so trusting. Don’t be so hard on yourself, Aries. Life’s been tough lately, and despite all, you’re still standingstrong. By week’s end, the planets push for spiritual and intellectual growth. This could mean learning new disciplines, and then applying them to daily life.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Thursday 29th
Don’t let life get to you, Taurus. Sometimes things just go awry. Hot topics include intimacy and trust. Mars also introduces unwelcome rivals. Add a suspicious Saturn, and the result brings a feisty quality to relationships. Perhaps a partnership has become one sided – with one doing all the giving. It’s time for new ground rules, don’t you think?
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Wednesday 28th
A plodding Mercury is prompting you to tie up any loose ends – sooner rather than later. Pay outstanding bills, reorganise your cupboards and rid yourself of any unnecessary baggage. In the same way, it’s not a great week for new ventures. To stay in the planetary flow, delay starting anything new until early next month.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Sunday 25th
Mercury retrograde strikes again and creates a hot mess for everyone. The retrograde’s “moonwalk” optical illusion creates quite the stir in technology, travel and communication. But if you work with this transit rather than against it, you can truly glean a fresh perspective on your life through reflecting, realigning and recreating.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Friday 23rd
You have plenty to think about this week, so do exactly that. Just don’t act on any of your ideas. With Mercury still sidling backwards, it’s not the right time to make final decisions. Also, after last week’s major planetary transits, the cosmic dust again needs to settle before you move on major issues. In matters of love, too – tread warily.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Saturday 24th
With your ruling planet Mercury still at a standstill, 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: 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 and your natural Libran charm to resolve dilemmas. Soon, you’ll have the cosmos back on side, both at work and at home.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Sunday 25th
Scorpios feel frustrated when living life on someone else’s terms, so politely make clear what will work for you and what won’t. Elsewhere, you’re chasing answers to important questions that could make a huge difference to your life. If you feel overwhelmed, don’t worry. A partner or close friend has your back.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Monday 26th
Mercury plays tricks on your mind this week; you may have bizarre dreams or disturbed sleep. Other possibilities: lost keys, being forgetful or physical exhaustion. Don’t rely on your memory – write down important details. If possible, retreat. Slip into something comfortable, fire up your social media and indulge in some well earned R & R.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Saturday 24th
The truest test of character often arises in emergencies. But is there really a crisis happening now, or is someone being overly dramatic? Step back from the hysteria surrounding you and calmly reassess the situation. Even if the week presents challenges, it’s a fairly safe bet that the future’s not totally doomed.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Thursday 29th
Silence might be golden but it can also lead to inner conflict. You’ve been asked to maintain secrecy, and until now have kept good faith. After all, it’s in your nature to be unquestioningly loyal. That is, until you run against a particularly petulant Mars, who’s keen to get you talking when you should be staying quiet.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Friday 23rd
No prizes for discovering that you don’t think or feel the same way others do. Most are used to this, so they should know better than to force your hand. Especially now, when despite a backward-sliding Mercury – you’re more inspired than ever. It’s a good thing your energy levels are in for a top up this week. Go on, Pisces – live the dream.
