IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY<\/p>\n

Mercury and Uranus together on your birthday will speed up your thought processes and make you more vocal as well. You won\u2019t be afraid to express your opinions, even when you know the powers that be won\u2019t approve. You will enjoy causing trouble.<\/p>\n

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):<\/p>\n

Travel plans are under excellent stars and if you get the urge to get up and go some place new then do it and don\u2019t look back. Someone you meet along the way may seem a bit quirky but they will grow on you over time.<\/p>\n

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):<\/p>\n

Opportunities to improve yourself won\u2019t be in short supply, so stay alert and be ready to take advantage of them ahead of your rivals. If you act quickly you will be rewarded with more than just money \uff0d your reputation will soar.<\/p>\n

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):<\/p>\n

Mercury, your ruler, moves into your sign and links up immediately with Uranus, planet of the unexpected. If an idea to improve your lot in life arrives in your head seemingly out of nowhere you would be a fool to ignore it.<\/p>\n

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):<\/p>\n

Your instincts rarely let you down and what your inner voice tells you this week will be treasure from the depths of your being. Don\u2019t just listen to that voice in your head, follow its advice and act as if you cannot fail \uff0d and you won\u2019t.<\/p>\n

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t keep your good ideas to yourself this week. The more people know about what you are thinking the more offers of assistance you will get and it won\u2019t be long before you\u2019ve got some serious momentum going. Once you start you won\u2019t want to stop.<\/p>\n

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):<\/p>\n

If your everyday routine has become a bit stale now is the time to freshen things up. Start by junking something that is at best a habit and at worst a serious drain on your resources. Channel your energy into more productive activities.<\/p>\n

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):<\/p>\n

There are a lot of neat things going on in your life and with Mercury moving into the most adventurous area of your chart you can build on those things to create something truly original. Don\u2019t aim just to be good, aim to be great!<\/p>\n

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):<\/p>\n

A sudden insight into how to make money will inspire you to be more adventurous when it comes to adding to your wealth. This would be a good time to start a side hustle. It may be small but it could pay off in a big way.<\/p>\n

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):<\/p>\n

If a friend or work colleague has a great idea this week there is no reason why you should not make it your own. There is no law that says you are not allowed to take that idea, improve on it and make it pay for you personally.<\/p>\n

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):<\/p>\n

There is a lot of satisfaction to be had from a job well done and what you are currently working on could turn out to be one of the best efforts you have ever made. Be proud of your abilities, but don\u2019t overdo the self-worship.<\/p>\n

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):<\/p>\n

Mercury, planet of the mind, joins forces with your ruler Uranus, making this one of the best times of the year to listen to the angels of your better nature and do something good for the world. Make use of your remarkable intellectual powers.<\/p>\n

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):<\/p>\n

The cosmic picture is changing and when the sun moves on in midweek you will be obliged to spend more time tackling domestic matters. Before then, give yourself permission to hit the town and have some serious fun with your friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Open this photo in gallery: TaurusiStockPhoto \/ Getty Images IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY Mercury and Uranus together…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":642592,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,2786,2789,2787,2788,75,2784,2790,1400,2785],"class_list":["post-675186","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-daily-horoscope","tag-daily-horoscope-globe-and-mail","tag-daily-horoscopes","tag-daily-horoscopes-globe-and-mail","tag-entertainment","tag-horoscope","tag-sally-brompton","tag-yespop","tag-yessnap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675186","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=675186"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/675186\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/642592"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=675186"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=675186"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=675186"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
