HOROSCOPE

BIRTHDAY SATURDAY

Hopefully you were not expecting too peaceful a year ahead because chances are it will be full of sound and fury. Does that scare you? It shouldn’t do because Leos thrive in situations where they have to live by their wits. Go on, be amazing!

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

There is no need to be cautious Aries. Others can worry about taking risks if they so wish but this is your time of year and you intend to make the most of it. The Sun in Leo will protect you, even when you push your luck too far.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

You are usually careful about what you say and do but today you will go to the other extreme and act in ways that are deliberately outrageous. You feel compelled to give someone a shock. Just watch out it doesn’t lose you a friend.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

Upheavals of one kind or another are to be expected this weekend but try not to react in a negative way. Some people may be rude for no good reason but is it really worth going head-to-head over? You’re big enough to take it.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

You’ve had some wonderful ideas of late and one idea in particular thrills you to such an extent that you won’t be satisfied until you have done something about it. Go on, make it your number one aim - and make it pay too.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Chances are you will do something totally outrageous over the next 48 hours. The fallout could be major and it probably won’t do much for your reputation but will you worry about that? Of course not. You just want to have fun!

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

It may seem as if the odds are stacked against you, and maybe they are, but the planets indicate you can break through the obstacles that have been placed in your path. Make sure everyone knows you mean business this weekend.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

If you are the kind of Libra who enjoys saying and doing outrageous things you will be in your element this weekend. Just remember that when you dish it out you have to be ready to take some as well. You won’t get it all your own way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

Be honest with yourself about your needs and desires. For quite some time now you have pretended that certain things mean nothing to you when, in fact, you secretly crave them. That craving will reach a peak today, so go on, indulge yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

You will meet some interesting people over the next 48 hours but you need to be aware that at least some of them will look at the world in ways that are alien to you. Yes, of course, you can be friends, but you won’t ever be close.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Even the most unadventurous Capricorn will be tempted by what is on offer this weekend. The only danger is it may bring with it hidden costs. But what of it? Who is going to care how much you paid one hundred years from now?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

If you have made up your mind what you want to do then get on with it. Don’t discuss the matter with family or friends - it has nothing to do with them. You should be confident enough to move ahead without asking for emotional support.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

An invitation that comes out of the blue this weekend will be tempting but because you don’t much like the person who is sending it you may decline. That would be a mistake. Go along for the ride - it won’t be as bumpy as you feared.
