If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Taureans are blessed with many creative talents, but you sometimes need motivation – and right now, your motivation is to make more money. Once you sense a growing success, there’ll be nothing stopping your artistic flow. By August, however, career expectations are placed on the back burner. Instead, you’re encouraged to get emotions out into the open. If in the market for new love, Venus helps singles deliver a knock-out sales pitch at a time when you’re ready to try online dating. September to October therefore offer fresh fun! If coupled, you’re better able to express how you feel and show how much you care. Something for everyone.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 5th
It’s funny how things can improve once you decide to surrender your worries to the universe. Thiss next week should bring progress on a matter that’s been causing you worry or discomfort. Ironically, this comes at a time when the issue in question hardly seems to matter any more. Or so you thought.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Sunday 3rd
Much as you want to take control of a current situation, you should step back and see whether someone else takes the initiative. Don’t offer help unless you know it’s really needed. Sometimes, you just have to let others clean up their own mess. Financial concerns assume more importance, as expenses increase.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Wednesday 6th
Periods of high stress can make us feel like were losing it, as can being surrounded by people whose values are very different from our own. For most of us, the key to survival in a week like this is to step back, take a deep breath and regain your composure. Only then should you decide what course of action to take.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Saturday 2nd
Enjoy the relative calm of this week as you slip into a more relaxed mode, and stay pretty much unflappable. You’re more able to take life as it comes – and if you have put a little extra effort into recent duties, this could be a time of reward. Deservedly so. Expect surprises or sudden opportunities.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Thursday 7th
Your moods have been changeable for a while, with many Leos feeling emotionally and financially abandoned. This week suggests that there’s still more unfinished business to complete and, perhaps, the occasional problem to wrestle. Remember though, that you’re warmly loved and those who truly love you will never let you down.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Saturday 2nd
The cosmos hints that what you most want this week is to find the strength and willpower to see you through current challenges. It’s important to come from a place of love and fortutude, not fear or worry. Pack your patience, Virgo. Although the rewards won’t be instant, your diligence will eventually pay off.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Wednesday 6th
As one particular phase of your life comes to an end, you trade what’s worn-out for something a little different. Be ready to detach from whatever no longer suits you. Romantically, you’re ready for some online chat. Financially, you’re not. While the wolf isn’t as yet at the door, the bills soon will be – so budget accordingly.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Sunday 3rd
With family issues, patience helps you keep a balanced viewpoint and, in these money-challenging times it might also pay to keep an eye on finances. It’s not that loved ones can’t be trusted – just know what they’re are spending. In matters of the heart, online or long-distance love could also turn out easier than imagined.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Monday 4th
There’s much to be said for routine, but the more recent same thing day-in day-out can bind past and present into a blur of blandness. So this week’s hint of online or long distance romance or creativity arrive just in time. Throw yourself wholeheartedly into these new options on offer – it could truly be a lifeline.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Saturday 2nd
It’s a week of personal growth, Capricorn – with enough cosmic cooperation to see you through. A little more perserverance is what’s needed, and we all know you’re not short on that. Just don’t place too much importance on money. Count your blessings, and know that life has more to offer than dollar signs.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Friday 1st
Good one, Aquarius. You’ve managed to make it to this point with much of your stability still intact. All you have to do now is keep your cards pinned close to your chest while doing business as usual. Two hints: don’t say more than you have to, and don’t try to fix what isn’t broken. This week, keep everything objective and balanced.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Monday 4th
Not everyone’s feeling co-operative at the moment. If waiting on a promise, check it’s still scheduled for delivery. Be vigilant, Pisces. If you’re not being kept informed, find out why. Be certain that what’s of offer is what’s delivered. Later in the week, life gets a far more pleasant nudge in the right direction – perhaps finances get a boost in the right direction.
