HOROSCOPE

Born today, you are a force to be reckoned with, there is no question about it. Indeed, wherever you go or whatever you do, you are likely to be recognised as the kind of person to influence others in some palpable, even permanent way — but whether for good or for ill is up to you. This question of "good or ill", in fact, may well prove to be the central conflict of your entire life: Will you follow a path of good, or a path of ill — a path that brings you into contact with others to effect change that improves their community, or causes some sort of harm? There is no telling which it will be until you begin to work toward your desired ends — and only then, at some point, will your intentions be clear. If for good, you may then be remembered as one of the all-time great humanitarians; if for ill, you may go down in history as infamous, rather than famous.

You may go through a significant period of time in which you play with your identity, altering it, forging it anew, and reinventing yourself perhaps again and again. Ultimately, however, you will come to the conclusion that the "real you" is the most valuable to you — and then you will strive to be true to yourself in every way from then on. You are likely to be surrounded by those who challenge you to be better than you are right now. You can see just where you want to go.

It may be time to alert someone else of an injustice that you cannot correct yourself. Working together you can restore balance.

Focus on something new, and you'll enjoy a transformation of sorts as you let it affect you both intellectually and emotionally

It shouldn't take long for you to pass the baton to another today, provided you are both prepared for the changes that will result.

You're ready and willing to try something that you've not tried before — but take care that you're not just being reckless. Consider the odds!

It's a good day for making memories with a loved one. If you journey away from home, make sure to take some of your favourite things with you.

You must try to find a way to block out noise and other distractions today as you tend to something that requires every bit of your attention.

Your energy and enthusiasm are likely to be contagious today — so don't hesitate to share your unfettered self with everyone you encounter.

You can guide someone you love back to the light today, restoring his or her self-worth and providing other necessary encouragement.

You may find yourself giving the same instructions again and again today. Are others not listening, or are you not being clear?

You've got one thing on your mind today, but that may have to give way to something more mundane that must be done before anything else.
