If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
This next year brings sweeping change and success but to ensure that you reap all it offers, don’t waste a second. Immediately put into place the changes you already know to be inevitable. Aim higher than ever. Prepare to push all professional projects during the first half of the year. The second half will be better spent socialising and creating community. Personal growth and emotional freedom are also important. You want a free hand to prove your capabilities, to make your own choices and to assert your individuality. If you make the occasional mistake, don’t fret. The spirit can only grow when challenged.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
Best Day: Saturday 7th
Why people behave the way they do can be a mystery. Trouble is, at times the most bizarre behaviour comes from those you thought you knew well. This week could shine some light on someone’s puzzling actions, which puts you in a better position to deal with the issues at hand. But should trouble flare, act with diplomacy.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Tuesday 10th
This week an action-packed cosmos pushes Taureans to the limit. Energy is heightened and you could accomplish a great deal, especially if you work alone. You’re not being uncommunicative – just not in the mood to compromise. It’s easy to become irritated with less spirited individuals. Carnal cravings run high.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Sunday 8th
It’s a powerhouse week, Gemini. The catch? A total change of course may be required. Sure, there’ll be some difficult moments – but with a huge upside. If, until now, you’ve felt invisible and that all your efforts have been unappreciated, the tables start to turn. Many Geminis now finally receive recognition.
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 11th
It’s time to move up a level, Cancer. You’ve experienced some setbacks lately, but that’s now behind you. Everything in the universe is comprised of energy, drawing toward it similar energy. So, in raising your vibration you attract situations, people and choices that you know will lift you up and support you. Enjoy this week’s good karma.
Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Monday 9th
You’re craving reassurance and sympathy. The only problem is that you keep pushing friends and family away. What’s stopping you from being truly honest with yourself, or others? It’s time to drop the defences, Leo. Be brave enough to discuss troublesome issues. More importantly, tell the truth.
Virgo (August 24 – September 22)
Best Day: Saturday 7th
This week looks set for some theatrical moments, and heaven help those who try to upstage you. However, if tempted to lay down the law according-to-Virgo, don’t. The more you belligerent you become, the greater the resistance. Leave the melodrama to the fire signs such as Leo and Aries – it suits them better.
Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Friday 6th
Being deliberately outspoken isn’t your usual style, but expressing your concerns just might help you get what you want. Silence isn’t always golden, Libra. If you’re worried that opportunities are passing you by – don’t fret. Seeds have been planted. Hard work will do the rest. You may even catch a certain someone’s romantic attention.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Wednesday 11th
Don’t let your talents go to waste by allowing others to hijack your hard work. At the same time, expect a crash course in relationships, the main lesson being a realistic view towards others. Impractical hopes tend to come tumbling down when placed on too high a pedestal. And if a particular love is unsalvageable, perhaps it’s time to go solo.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Friday 6th
This week, diversity rules. When so enthusiastic – trying to relax would be a waste of time. Love, friendships, business – they all fight for centre stage. The power of the word becomes inspirational, so if you have a tale to tell – start blogging! You’re surrounded by encouragement. It’s also a great time to let others know how much you love them.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Thursday 12th
You’re in a fighting mood, Capricorn. Some might call your attitude aggressive, but you say you’re being assertive. One warning: we all do and say things we later regret and this week could bring that red-faced moment. But nothing’s beyond repair, especially with a romantic partner. Just kiss and make up.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Sunday 8th
There’s something truly comforting about returning to familiar surroundings, especially if times have been tough. More recently, any solo experiences were necessary, and now you get to enjoy the support of friends and family. It’s time to put down emotional roots. There could also be an eventual financial gain through real estate.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Best Day: Thursday 12th
Pisceans are famous for having unlimited compassion for those who are suffering, but what about treating yourself kindly? When life turns troublesome, it’s usually your negative self-talk that makes matters worse. Enough of the self-criticism. Give yourself a break – accept that most people make the occasional mistake, including yourself.
