Happy Birthday: Keep your emotions in check so you don’t miss out on opportunities this year that can help you stabilize your financial situation as well as any contractual obligations you might have.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Help a friend or make contributions to a cause you believe in. Your interactions with others will win you favors and friendships. Hands-on help rather than making a donation will bring you far higher rewards in the end.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Slow down until you fully understand the signals you are receiving. Expect to face deception from someone you feel attached to emotionally. Don’t be fooled by someone’s bravado.

b: You can advance if you display your skills, attributes and talent. Don’t wait to be asked. Share your ideas and you will formulate good relationships with the people interested in following and supporting your efforts. Love is highlighted.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Nurture your relationships. Emotional problems must not be left to fester. Make suggestions and be willing to compromise. Excess and overreacting will be what lead to trouble in the first place. Less criticizing and more complimenting will be necessary.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Put more thought and creativity into a job. A serious consideration will be made based on the way you handle your peers as well as how you present and promote what you have to offer. Don’t make others look bad.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t overspend to make an impression. Simplicity coupled with an original idea and a little mystery thrown into the mix will put you in a category of your own. A surprise will bring about an unexpected opportunity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will find that you are in an uncompromising position if you let your emotions lead you into conversations that will cost you a friendship, advancement or lead to a family feud. Think before you share your feelings. Focus on home improvements.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Dig deep into your past and you will not make the same mistake twice. You can secure your position and improve your reputation if you are strict in the way you handle personal and professional situations that have potential to cause friction.
