IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Something (or someone) that has been holding you back from being more adventurous needs to be dealt with – not tomorrow or the day after but right now. Free yourself from restrictions then strike out in a new direction. The world is yours to enjoy.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

Make a point of ignoring a friend’s bad points and focusing just on their good points today. They may be in need of correction but they will respond better to positive advice than they will to criticism. They’ll get the message – and you’ll stay friends.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Try not to put pen to paper on any kind of deal today. In fact, don’t even make verbal promises. Why? Because communications planet Mercury warns you cannot be sure that the other party is going to keep to their side of the bargain.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

If someone asks what you think or how you feel today they had better be ready for some straight talking. You are in no mood to pretend that everything is fine when it clearly is not. The truth needs to be said – and you’ll say it loud!

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

If someone asks you to help them out with their workload today by all means do what you can, but make sure you don’t end up doing it all. Sometimes you can be a bit too nice for your own good. Don’t let them take advantage of you.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You have no intention of pulling your punches today – you have something to say and you are going to say it long and loud. Anyone who cannot handle the truth had best move as far away from you as they can. Take no prisoners.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Try not to read too much into a situation that is actually quite simple. Most likely someone is deliberately making it look more complicated than it is so they can get your sympathy, and maybe your money too. You’re not that gullible – are you?

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

It is of the utmost importance that you watch what you say over the next 24 hours. You may be tempted to target someone who is getting too big for their boots but that could have serious repercussions. Resist the urge to make fun of them.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

You believe in yourself 100 per cent but it seems not everyone thinks you have what it takes. Go out of your way to prove you’re not just good, but great, at what you do. Make it so that even your enemies can no longer deny that fact.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Try not to get carried away with your own importance today. Yes, you are enjoying a run of good fortune that is thoroughly deserved but it’s not smart to make a big noise about it if it makes you a bigger target as well.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

No matter what you say over the next 24 hours someone is sure to misinterpret your words. Whether they do so deliberately or by mistake is neither here nor there – you can and you must spell it out for them so the confusion doesn’t linger.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

You may be inclined to do something dramatic to get yourself noticed but it isn’t necessary – in fact it could be counterproductive. The planets warn that certain people are watching your every move and checking your every word, so be careful.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

Mercury in your sign is poorly aligned to Jupiter, planet of excess, today, which means you need to take extra care when you open your mouth. Yes, of course, you are entitled to your opinions but that does not mean other people have to agree with you.
