IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

A full moon on your birthday means you will face a number of challenges, mostly of an interpersonal nature. How are your people skills? If they are up to scratch you will come through those challenges with ease while making a healthy profit.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

If you keep things simple you won’t go far wrong. If other people want to go off in crazy directions that’s up to them but you know from long experience that the quickest route to success is to stick with the path you are already on.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

The full moon warns that you have pushed your luck about as far as it will go and now need to secure the gains you previously made. It’s always tempting when you are on a winning streak to go for just one more throw of the dice. Don’t!

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Before you make an important decision you must see to it that you have all the facts and figures at your fingertips. If there is even the slightest doubt that you are making the right call you must put it off to a later date.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

The full moon in your sign this weekend will make you rather emotional and while in itself that may be no bad thing it could become a bad thing if you base decisions on feelings alone. However hard it may be at times you must act rationally.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Your responsibilities seem to be weighing heavily on you and it’s no surprise that you are looking around for ways to dump them. If you do you will upset both friends and loved ones, so accept the load and work your way through it.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

You can expect to move ahead in leaps and bounds this weekend. No matter what obstacles may be placed in your path you will find ways to get past them with a minimum of fuss. Others may not be so lucky but why should you care?

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

You may be experiencing good fortune but some of your friends and colleagues are going through a rough patch. Whatever issues they are having to deal with none of them can be laid at your door, so there’s no need to feel guilty.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Social and travel plans are sure to be disrupted this weekend, so if you are on the move you must plan well ahead. More importantly, you must resolve not to get upset when people get in your way and slow you down. Anger will make matters worse.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Because the current full moon cuts across the money axis of your chart you need to be careful when dealing with situations that, if you make a wrong call, could cost you more than you bargained for. Resist the urge to push your luck.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

So many things are going well for you now that it may come as a shock when one particular endeavour goes wrong. Looked at logically it is of only minor importance, so don’t get hung up on it. Move on as quickly as you can.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Try not to take what occurs this weekend too seriously. It may seem like a major setback but only because you are thinking more with your heart than your head. At all costs avoid getting mixed up in other people’s senseless disputes.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

What you stand to gain this weekend is many times better than what you stand to lose, so if you have to make sacrifices do so with a happy heart. And don’t lose sight of the fact that friendships are more important than material success.
