Your lookahead horoscope

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Keep telling yourself there is nothing you cannot do in life. Keep telling yourself that all things are possible. If you say it often enough your belief will make it a fact and the year ahead will be full of many wonderful, and profitable, adventures.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

There is only one voice you need to listen to this week and that’s your inner voice. Be especially wary of what friends say you should be doing because the planets warn they don’t know what they are talking about. Trust yourself first and last.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

You need to give yourself something to look forward to, something that makes it worth your while to get out of bed in the morning. What other people offer you this week may not be much of an incentive, so offer yourself something special instead.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

It is of the utmost importance that you question everything you are told over the next few days. As power planet Pluto begins its retrograde phase there is a real possibility that some of what you hear is designed to mislead you, so be on your guard.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

The more you know about someone you do business with the more likely it is your partnership will be a profitable one. If they try to cut themselves a bigger slice of the pie, and they will, you’ll have the leverage to stop them. Knowledge is power.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

You may be tempted to take things easy as the new week begins and that’s probably not a bad idea. Work colleagues are unlikely to know what it is they want to do until well into next month, so why make an effort that may not be necessary?

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

If you keep your eyes and ears open over the next few days you won’t be caught unawares when something occurs that shocks those you work with. Changes are coming, big changes, and if you want to profit from them you must stay alert.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

A creative project that should have been finished by now will have to be put on the back-burner while you take care of more important activities. It doesn’t mean you have to abandon it but you will have to put it out of your mind for a bit.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Don’t make too much of an effort to impress other people this week, especially people in positions of authority. If you come on too strong they may fear that you are after their job and make life more difficult for you than it needs to be.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Power planet Pluto turns retrograde in the communications area of your chart this week, so it might be wise not to trust what employers and senior colleagues tell you. Make sure you check any claims they make for yourself. You can’t be too careful.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

A simple problem has a simple solution and once you clear your mind of all the complicated and misleading nonsense other people come up with you will find that solution with ease. All you have to do is think logically and clearly, and you’re good at that.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

No matter what your plans may be they are about to be overtaken by events, so prepare yourself mentally and don’t have a meltdown when you realize you are no longer in control. You’re a strong enough character to be able to deal with it.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

Cosmic activity in the most sensitive area of your chart means you need to avoid negative thinking at all costs. Once a fatalistic attitude gets lodged in your mind it will be very hard to shift, so count your blessings several times a day.
