Happy Birthday: Professional or educational decisions must be made based on what you want, not what someone else wants you to do. You will pick up information easily as long as you don’t let others limit your progress and success. An offer someone makes you will be tempting, but isn’t likely to live up to your expectations. 

ARIES (March 21-April 19): A contract, job offer or financial gain will come from an unusual source. Make personal changes that will enhance your career prospects. It’s up to you to make things happen. Ask questions and offer solutions. Romance is highlighted. 

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Focus on forward motion and don’t cling to the past. What isn’t working for you can be resolved if you make changes at work or at home that will improve your situation. Children and seniors will be instrumental in your decisions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Domestic changes will lead you in a new direction. Stick to your plans and don’t let anyone talk you into spending more than you can afford. A contractual problem is best dealt with swiftly. Choose intelligence over muscle. 

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Opportunities to improve your domestic situation are apparent. Don’t be afraid of change or what others do or say about the choices you make. Speak and act from the heart and make it your mission to put your own needs first.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll come up with or be made aware of interesting options that will improve your life. Put romance at the top of your list and make an effort to surprise someone you love. Added discipline will help you reach your goals. 

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Consider what’s important to you and the people you care about, and do whatever it takes to maintain or improve the status quo. Talks with loved ones will help you make wise and thoughtful decisions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Difficulties with personal relationships will be out of your control. Standing by and waiting to see what happens isn’t easy, but as long as you show support and protect your interests as best you can, you will have nothing to worry about. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Read between the lines when it comes to what you are being told and what is actually happening. Don’t rely on others or wait around for someone else to take charge. Focus on personal gains and going after what you want.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Emotions will be difficult to control. Try to take a wait-and-see approach when dealing with personal relationships. Positive changes can be made, but before you initiate anything, make sure everyone is in favor.
