Happy birthday. You do what’s right without worry as to the outcome, believing that good always wins out in the end. The victories you experience this month and in March set a precedent. Make a decision about where you’ll live in April so you can settle in and concentrate on your career.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Maybe you don’t have to lose to gain. Maybe you’ve been carrying around a void long enough and there’s plenty of room for a wonderful treat to drop into your life. Go with that theory, and your attitude will attract it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can’t help your feelings or your reaction to people. But you can control your exposure to them. Arranging for more good feelings has to do with being around the people who make you feel good.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Choosing the right medium for your message will be important. Should you text or call? Show up in person or create a mystery post on a website? Let your stellar sense of style dictate.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): There’s an old saying: “Pay the piper.” In your case, the piper may not have been invited to play in the first place, which will make paying him a bit challenging on a psychological level.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Unconditional love seems like it should be everyone’s birthright, and yet it is a rare commodity. Can you give it? If you do, you won’t ever be able to unlove the recipient of this gift.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Stating what you want lets others know something about who you are. That’s why you sometimes prefer to keep your wants quiet. You’ll be in a private mood, and you’re still not sure whom you can trust.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Being creative gives you a lift unlike anything else now. You’ll touch on the higher places of your psyche and stretch into the outer reaches of your physical capabilities, too.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Who wouldn’t want to be smarter, stronger and richer? The drive to do so may feel urgent today, but it will lessen as the weekend progresses. Don’t be fooled: Happiness is embracing who you are now.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your mind is like a pond. Do something to keep the water agitated, or the algae and mosquitoes will take over. Challenging activities and people will freshen your outlook.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Does this scene look a lot like yesterday’s? That’s a plus. This is the new “normal”: the ordinary circumstances that will provide your best opportunity for doing extraordinary things.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): True, you are similar to other members of the human race, and yet you are also quite unlike any being who’s ever been created. Therefore, it would be wrong to compare yourself to the others. Don’t do it.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s better to be patient than to waste time and mental resources on speculation. This is a case where the best answer is: Wait and see. If you can accept that, you are wise indeed.
