If you celebrate your birthday this week:
Your Year Ahead
Recent times have felt unsettled, thanks to a moody Mars. Misunderstandings and mistakes turned many a Libran bedroom into a battlefield. For others, it’s simply becoming a no-go zone. Your new birthday year brings far less tension; and far more fun. By December, Jupiter and sexy Venus promise singles some high-quality romance. For those already coupled, intimacies result in fewer demands and rekindled passions. At work, too, this is a landmark year. Whether you’re hoping to meet new people or start a new job, the planets align in your favour.

It’s better to tame the beast within.
Taurus (April 21 – May 20)
Best Day: Friday 2nd

Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Best Day: Sunday 4th
Short term projects catch your interest. You’re focused, but with only limited patience – which could lead to some frustrating moments. Don’t be in such a rush, Gemini.

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
Best Day: Monday 5th
With fiery Mars in your tenth house of ambition, work may bring unexpected surprises. Perhaps you’re forced to step up the ladder of command, which could elevate you beyond your comfort zone.

Leo (July 23 – August 23)
Best Day: Saturday 3rd

Libra (September 23 – October 23)
Best Day: Tuesday 6th
Now’s the time to sit back and put your feet up for a while as you start to reap the benefits of what you have sown.

You can spend up, too.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
Best Day: Friday 2nd
Those with the Sun in Scorpio are special, mostly because very few people understand you. Yours is the sign which commands the most awe and respect.

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Best Day: Wednesday 7th
It’s a Sagittarius kind of week. Jupiter is on the move, and so are you. Don’t worry too much about formalities – it’s your spirit that others will notice. Should you find yourself up against equally determined minds, stop and listen. You could actually learn from others opinions. But it’s not all work. Social invitations no longer need polite avoidance.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Best Day: Friday 2nd
Here’s a week of opportunity. Determination continues to push you forward, so throw all your might into a potentially lucrative project. It’s also a time of Capricorn single-mindedness.

Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Best Day: Saturday 3rd
Be careful not to confuse fantasy with reality this week. Despite your reputation for being detached, there are many secrets hidden beneath that cool exterior.

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
