HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Do some digging and find out why friends and loved ones seem so reluctant to move in new directions. It may be that they simply don’t share your dreams and desires and prefer to stick with what they already know. You may have to go it alone.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

It would be easy enough not to finish a project that has begun to bore you but it would also set a bad example to friends and colleagues. Get your act together and get it done and then move on to something of a more challenging nature.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

The problem you are facing has a simple solution but you won’t see it if you insist on criticizing other people instead of yourself. Be big enough to accept that you are at least partly to blame, and brave enough to do something about it.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

A relationship that has been going through a tough time of late will start to improve over the next few days and come the weekend you may even be friends again. Next time you fall out over a minor matter don’t let it escalate so quickly.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

You may not be the sort to admit defeat but on this occasion you have no choice in the matter. The planets warn if you continue to bang your head against the proverbial brick wall the only thing to get damaged will be your ego. Let it go.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

You have too much on the go at the moment and need to cut back on your commitments. Part of the problem, of course, is that you don’t like to say No when people come to you for assistance. You don’t have to say Yes every time!

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

No doubt loved ones want the best for you but if what they suggest today is not in alignment with your own ideas then you must turn them down. A little bit of selfishness could do you a lot of good between now and the weekend.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

A matter that has been troubling you for ages will resolve itself to your complete satisfaction over the next 24 hours. At some point you will realize that it only seemed like a serious issue and was never really worth getting worked up about.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Maintain an upbeat attitude at all times today, especially when mixing with people who like nothing better than to wallow in their own negativity. Make a point of approaching life in a light-hearted manner. Hopefully others will learn from your example.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

If you focus your mind in a single direction today you will make a very good job of one thing but miss out on a lot of fun activities. Sagittarius is a sign that needs stimulation like other people need food and water, so don’t deny yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

You may feel a bit vulnerable today, especially when dealing with situations that take you out of your comfort zone. Fortunately, you are such a fast learner that soon you will be on top of your game again – and the top is where you will stay.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

If someone you think of as a friend says something critical about you today don’t immediately get mad and hit back at them. Most likely they are speaking in jest and expect you to get the joke. What happened to your sense of humour?

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

It seems you have bitten off more than you can chew and now need to make excuses as to why you won’t be able to deliver. Others will understand if you explain it to them but don’t make a habit of it. Promise them less next time.
