YOUR STAR THIS WEEK

YOUR BIRTHDAY

Born today, you are always one to follow the rules — or so it seems. The truth, however, is that you are perfectly willing to bend or even break the rules if doing so is more in line with how you think or feel about a given situation. You are always keenly aware of what is going on around you, so that you can assess the matter and decide if the time is right to make alterations to the status quo. You don't just go about things in a random, willy-nilly sort of fashion. You watch and listen for all the signs that could possibly tell you what to do — and when.

Oddly, perhaps, you cannot abide others who break the rules -and, in many other ways, you are deeply critical of those who do and say the things that you do as well. Is this because you are critical of yourself, deep down? Perhaps, but it is more likely that you simply don't want others to be better than you are at doing things your way!

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 21 — JANUARY 20)

Circumstances vary, but you can approach everything with the same overall sense of selfawareness and confidence and very likely win the day.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 — FEBRUARY 18)

You are waiting for your luck to change, when in fact luck has very little to do with what is going on right now. Get more up-to-date info.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 — MARCH 20)

Are you really ready to do the thing you've pledged to do? If not, there's a way out — but it may take a little time to identify it.

ARIES (MARCH 21 — APRIL 19)

You have a great deal going for you right now, and yet all you can do is moan about the few things that aren't right. Change your focus!

TAURUS (APRIL 20 — MAY 20)

You've got to be in the right place at just the right time today, or you're not likely to get what you feel you very much deserve.

GEMINI (MAY 21 — JUNE 20)

You have an important choice to make today, and not everyone is going to be supportive no matter which way you go. It's a crap shoot.

CANCER (JUNE 21 — JULY 21)

You can explain things in the simplest possible way and there will always be those who do not understand. Focus on those who seem receptive.

LEO (JULY 22 — AUGUST 22)

Uncertainty can't be allowed to prevail today. Even if you're just pretending, you must take a stand. It will lead to something!

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 — SEPTEMBER 22)

Your plans, organised though they may be, are not likely to yield the fruit that you had anticipated. Get to the heart of the matter.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 — OCTOBER 22)

Follow your instincts, and don't let anyone tell you that your assessment of a certain situation is in error. You know what's what!

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 — NOVEMBER 21)

You may not be the best judge of your performance today, so why not get the opinion of a good friend who would never lead you astray?

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 — DECEMBER 20)

You'll receive good news that seems to offset the bad news received yesterday or the day before. Your state of mind is on an upswing.
