HOROSCOPE IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You will have some big responsibilities to deal with over the coming 12 months, but the good news is that they will inspire you rather than depress you. The bigger the challenge, the more fun you’ll have. You certainly won’t flag down under pressure.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

Even if you’re full of confidence right now, a negative comment from a friend or loved one could still throw you off balance. You may look super confident on the outside, but those inner doubts need to be addressed.

Taurus (April 21 – May 21):

If you fear the worst today, you increase the likelihood that the worst will actually happen. Your mind is a powerful tool and must be under your conscious control at all times, so focus on positive thoughts and at least pretend to believe them.

TWINS (May 22 – June 21):

The planets indicate that on the whole you are still doing well, even if you are affected by some minor setbacks. What looks like bad news today will look remarkably good by the end of the week.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

Put your own needs first today and don’t worry that some of your friends and family may not be getting their fair share. You can’t know what the whole story is, so trust that the universe will take care of their needs in the fullness of time.

LEO (July 24 – August 23):

If something is not going so well professionally today, it may be because you expect too much from yourself and perhaps from others as well. Instead of one big, grandiose plan, try breaking it down into smaller, more achievable parts.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Cosmic activity in your Taurus earth sign means you are in no mood to be confused – you know what you want and you know how to get it, and if anyone gets in your way, that’s his Bad luck. You are an irresistible force.

LIBRA (24 Sept – 23 Oct):

If something doesn’t feel right today, don’t ignore it. Make it your mission to find out what’s going on, and then take action to protect yourself if necessary. Most importantly, stay away from people who feed on negativity.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 22):

You have to be absolutely honest with yourself about the state of a relationship. According to the planets, it has now reached the stage where you can no longer pretend everything is sweet and light. Either improve or quit and move on.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

You may not be able to explain why you distrust someone, but deep down you know they don’t have your best interests at heart, so keep them at bay for as long as possible. No, you are not jumping on shadows, your instincts are spot on as always.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 20):

You may find it difficult today to take some people seriously, especially those who seem to think the whole world is against them. Being such a practical person, you know that happiness is not external, but something you create for yourself.

AQUARIUS (January 21 – February 19):

You already have enough commitments and you must say “no” when asked to take on more today. Turning away friends and loved ones might be difficult, but this is one of those occasions when you have to be tough.

PISCES (February 20 – March 20):

You may get what you want today, but you can also make an enemy of someone who doesn’t like to stand in your shadow. The good news is that your star will burn so brightly that you probably won’t realize they aren’t happy with you.
