If it’s your birthday

Happy birthday, exciting energy! Naturally charismatic, you attract others to you through your emotion and passionate movement or speech. You share your birthday with dashing Lord Byron and magnetically charged Glenn Close and Diane Lane. This year, you succeed through following your brilliant instincts but need to beware of impulsive, explosive, and hasty actions. Professional colleagues and social organizations test your patience and until October 10, 2017 your greatest rewards – and profits – will come through travel and far away lands and cultures. The last three months of 2017, your career skyrockets. APRIL 20-MAY 20 Your life perspective has been changing. While vaguely conscious of it for a while, you’re now beginning to understand how it affects you. While usually more comfortable with what’s tried and true, you’re actually ready to embrace not only new ways of doing things, and also to see them completely differently. MAY 21-JUNE 20 The desire to gain more recognition continues to motivate you, but it’s important to recognize how you work to go about this, and the sense of your methods. Feeling like two people sometimes distracts you from picking up on the vibe your actual partner has been putting out. You should definitely begin tuning in. JUNE 21-JULY 22 In case it’s been causing momentary insecurity, step back and review just how much you’ve actually been getting done these days. Maybe you’ve been motivated by an example set by a close associate. Your mind has opened up to new possibilities, and there is energy for the follow through. JULY 23-AUG. 22 Still harnessed to the plow isn’t the dignified position in which Leos like to find themselves. Individual creative expression has had to take a back seat to finding a way to maintain some discipline. You can express good ideas regarding work related systems, so channel creative thought in that direction. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 Several family members aren’t taking your ideas or the other contributions you make as seriously as you feel they should be. Issues regarding children or creative endeavors cause concern and you aren’t sure how to proceed. By combining forces with your partner, these can be successfully resolved and put to rest. SEPT. 23-OCT. 22 From time to time issues from your past have resurfaced which are difficult to discuss. Rather than opening a trove of emotions packed away long ago, it’s far easier curling yourself in your work or concentrate on learning a new skill. Mastering the skill of handling emotions would certainly be a valuable one. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 You’re drawn to what is needed to securely manage your resources. You’ve been noticing signs that your understanding of certain financial issues isn’t as comprehensive as you’d like. Without a clear perspective, what you’ve been considering taking a risk on could well have a negative return. Invest in serious analysis. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 You’ve got house issues to deal with, and have spent time figuring out how they can be accomplished. Recently you’ve found the motivation to get on with it, putting steady effort into these improvements. Don’t be discouraged if you can’t manage to get some of your grander ideas get off the ground for this week. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 There is a big difference in the way you’ve been experiencing life. Ideas you hadn’t previously considered now actually peak your curiosity. While some ideas are still in a gestation period, you feel more willing to open up and discuss others, allowing in close friends and including them in your dialogue. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 It is difficult sometimes to know just who it is you should be. You’ve got moments of fire and clarity, and go from greatly valuing yourself, to feeling your resolve vanishing like morning fog. Still, the inspiration to see the creative side of things, and doing much for others carries you through.
