Happy Birthday: You can expect emotional setbacks regarding home and family, as well as a change in your original plans for the year ahead. Stick to what you know best and follow through. It’s all about you this year, so stop trying to please everyone around you.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Dealing with personal matters will take up all your time. You have to address what everyone is facing before you make a decision. If you don’t act fast, you may lose out on an opportunity.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Reassess your situation and review how you have handled matters in the past. You will want to make a few adjustments now so that you don’t end up in a position that leaves you with extra responsibilities.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may feel subject to pressure regarding a financial deal. Before you sign on the dotted line or take someone’s word for it, do your own fact- finding. There are always other options, so slow down and see what else turns up.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll be tempted to get involved in something a little different but, before you do, consider the outcome. It’s interesting to try new things but most likely what you have built over the years is too substantial to give up now.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ve got lots to look forward to if you just relax and have a little fun time. Love is in the picture and, if you spend time with someone you consider to be special, new ideas will develop and lead to an interesting future, offering romance and adventure.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t be fooled by what others do. Question anything that appears the least bit unorthodox and you will discover what you need to know in order to make some serious life changes. Your position and your future may be at stake if you let someone else make your decisions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You need a break. Whether you visit a friend, take a vacation or just frequent places in your city you’ve never been before, the experience will bring you increased insight. Act intuitively regarding your goals and future plans.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Someone will cause you grief if you are trying to make changes to yourself or your home. Make sure you are ready for the opposition. In time, those who interfere will realize you know what you are doing.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Someone will want information that will infringe on your privacy or lead to pulling out of an event or activity you were planning to do together. Your life can easily change financially, emotionally and physically if you make the wrong decision.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Say what you have to say but don’t expect it to be well received. Once you have unloaded your differences, you can put it behind you and continue in a more suitable direction without feeling guilty.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Choose your friends wisely. Self-improvements will attract people who can do a lot more to enhance your life. A romantic relationship will lead to a new outlook and lifestyle that will enable you to prosper.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A conflict with someone will cause problems by interfering in an opportunity you want to take advantage of. You can counteract any meddling fast by being understanding but firm, using love and affection to help explain your reasoning. It’s your life.
