If it’s your birthday

Take control of your career, which means overcoming your tendency to react emotionally to others. Learn to steer your own ship, and to set your own course. Others may have a voice and a role, though it’s time for you to recognize that you are the one with the ideas, and you’re the one holding the bag. If you can do this, you will be brilliantly successful. You share a birthday with Dick Gregory, Luciano Pavarotti and Hugh Jackman. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 Whatever emotional or psychic shake-up might enter your life, go with the flow and it will pass as quickly as it came on. This same astrology might also manifest as restlessness or agitation. Walking will help, especially near water. Trooping around the neighborhood and a hot bath will work too. APRIL 20-MAY 20 If you’re feeling any isolation, it’s probably an echo of some past time in your life. Reach out to someone you care about and share your feelings. You may decide that you’re the person who understands yourself the best, which is true just about all the time. Be grateful for anyone willing to help you. MAY 21-JUNE 20 Honor thy error as hidden intent. Honor digressions, diversions and segues as creative branching-off points. To do what you do, whether socially, artistically or professionally, you need to be flexible, and you must be responsive to your environment at all times. That’s one of the benefits of your life. JUNE 21-JULY 22 You will need to be alert and mindful so that work-related stress or relationship-related pressures don’t get to you. You have a right to set any boundary you need in order to feel good and get your work done. You’re not everyone’s mother; and you are your own boss. JULY 23-AUG. 22 If you’re feeling restless or having little bursts of anxiety, you can blame it on astrology. That same astrology is urging you to listen and feel deep into yourself, to understand something basic and essential. Do not be afraid to open your inner ears. As it says in the Bible, the truth will set you free. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 You will feel better if you get out of the house and spend some time among friends. You might want to arrange this in someone’s home rather than in a public place, because you’re rather sensitive at the moment; a psychic sponge. Soak in some warm, friendly and loving vibes. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 You may be worried that a personal scrape or skirmish will hurt your public reputation. To that end, it will help if you mind your integrity, stick to the facts, and say as little as possible. People have faith in you, as they should. Much more important, and useful, developments are afoot. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 Have all work-related conversations in private spaces, not public. If you must meet outside a home or office, pick a greasy spoon diner in a remote neighborhood where nobody knows or cares about you, and speak in a low voice. You’re dealing with sensitive information and must be careful. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 Let everyone else do all the unraveling. Keep your sense of humor, and listen to what people are saying between the words they use. Once you decode any encrypted messages, you will have a better idea how to respond. Give yourself at least 24 hours on anything even modestly important. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 You will need to hold steady to your course today, and not be distracted or thrown off by any surprise events that may emerge. Remember your highest priorities and stick to them diligently. You are being judged by a higher standard now that Jupiter has risen to the top of your chart. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 It may be difficult to keep all the messages that are flying around clear and in order. Therefore, take all the time you need to consider where everyone is coming from, and feel no pressure to act or make a decision before you are ready. You are a Pisces. Biding your time is your natural birthright.
