JACQUELINE BIGAR

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: You will have exciting work-related opportunities come your way. This year also brings many deep and lasting internal changes affecting your philosophy and psyche over the coming years. If single, you feel yourself searching for the right mate, and, if you compromise your dogma, one will be found. If attached, you cling to your partner through thick and thin, and your relationship succeeds. Cancer needs reassurance through their many moods.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

Frustrations might occur as domestic responsibilities and partnership demands clash. Your natural optimistic demeanour will see you through. Bend a little in every direction, as you cannot satisfy everyone. Tonight: Relax before dinner.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

Complications or delays regarding impending changes in your domestic life are likely today. This could be due to situations with elders or something work-related. Take things in stride. Make sure an elderly relative is in good shape. Tonight: The show must go on.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

You might not feel very inspired on a creative level, but do not let that stop you from having fun. This is the time to be active with others, particularly children. Your attitude is positive and you receive good news in the afternoon. Tonight: Celebrate.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

The display of emotionalism going on around you at home might drive you a little crazy. Fortunately, it is short-lived. You feel like escaping, but do not expect to overdo it and emerge unscathed the next day. Tonight: Defer to a loved one on plans.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

The urge to get outside and do some driving hits today. You make a lot of short trips. Country or rural areas seem especially appealing. Get outdoors and plant some flowers. A sibling needs to talk with you. Tonight: Catch up with old friends.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

Easy come, easy go is the motto today. You might have a tendency to spend more than you expected. Friends and social causes are responsible. Do not borrow or lend money. You want to go over your accounts. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

Make hay while the sun shines. Today you are at your most charming, and lucky, too. This is a great time for you to make a grand, personal debut of any sort. Connections with those foreign born are favoured. Tonight: Relax.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

Spending time alone will have strong appeal. Some of you may simply need the time away from others to recuperate from life’s stresses. Others will find artistic inspiration heightened through such stress relievers as meditation. Tonight: A great deal of inner spiritual growth occurs.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
