HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
Work-related issues will take up a large slice of your time and energy over the coming year and if you play your cards right you could end up in a position of power. Anyone who says you are too nice to succeed may have to eat their words.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20):
You don’t lack for ambition but take care that in your rush to get ahead in life you don’t upset some very important people along the way. Another attribute you have plenty of is charisma, so turn on the charm and make allies rather than enemies.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):
Today’s Venus-Mars link is sure to make one-to-one relationships tense but there is no reason why there should be a major falling out either at home or at work. Meet others halfway every chance you get – it will be a sacrifice worth making.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):
Make sure you have done everything expected of you on the domestic front before venturing out and having fun in the wider world. Partners and relatives have a right to expect that you pull your weight around the home, and will let you know if you don’t!
CANCER (June 22 - July 23):
The No. 1 lesson you need to learn is that perfection is unattainable. It’s okay to set high standards but if you make them so high they become impossible to reach what good does that do? Remind yourself often that you are still human.
LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):
Push ahead with your plans but don’t think that you can do it all by yourself because the planets warn there may be obstacles up ahead that only a team can deal with. There will be more than enough glory for everyone to share in.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):
If you owe someone a favour then it must be repaid on demand. If you have to change your plans to accommodate a friend’s or loved one’s needs over the next 24 hours then do so with good humour – you cannot have it all your own way.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):
If your sixth sense tells you to take certain claims with a large dose of doubt you must not ignore them. Even if the person who is advising you has never let you down before there is a chance they could do so today. Don’t take unnecessary risks.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):
If you can keep your head clear of other people’s gossip and tittle-tattle you will see clearly what needs to be done today. Should the noise get too much just put on your headphones and drown out their voices. And don’t worry about looking rude.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):
Do you stick with what you know and trust or do you try something new? Only you can decide but the planets suggest you are more likely to come up with the right answer if you leave it for a day or two. Seriously, what’s the rush?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):
Mars in the work area of your chart will encourage you to make a series of rash decisions today, each one potentially more harmful than the one before. Just because you are feeling more adventurous does not mean you have to be reckless.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):
You may be inclined to do something provocative today but before you do try looking ahead and working out how much it might cost you if it goes wrong. Is it worth the risk? Maybe, maybe not, but you certainly don’t have to take it right now.
PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):
Today’s Venus-Mars link warns that while a loved one may be hugely enthusiastic about a project of some kind you are under no obligation to fall in with their plans. If it does not appeal to you just let them know and wish them the best.
