If it’s your birthday

You have more to offer than you may think. Yet you’ll only find out by giving yourself to who and what you value. This is not giving away, but rather investment in what means the most to you. What you’ll discover is that the more you offer, the more you have. You can afford to be generous, especially with your knowledge and your experience. You share a birthday with Johnny Carson, Ang Lee, and “Weird Al” Yankovic. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 It’s often said that our relationships are mirrors. They show us the contents of our mind and feelings, and are extensions of our inner reality. What are you noticing in that mirror? What is your environment telling you about yourself? Are you looking at a mirror image, or a true image? APRIL 20-MAY 20 The Sun has entered your opposite sign Scorpio, which will give your relationships a more solid feeling than they’ve had in recent weeks or longer. This will also emphasize the deeper reasons you want to connect with others, which include a rare opportunity to learn about life. MAY 21-JUNE 20 Stay optimistic, no matter how others may be feeling. For some, keeping things positive is a luxury. For you, it’s essential to your health and your sanity. You have a lot to live for right now. These are some of the best weeks of the year astrologically, and you can literally do anything. JUNE 21-JULY 22 The Sun’s entry into Scorpio overnight is good news if you’re into celebrating life. If you follow your pleasure, your activities will deepen into the kind of commitment that chooses you, and where the outcome cannot be predicted. That’s OK, as the planets are leaning heavily in your favor. JULY 23-AUG. 22 If you can, take a day and do what you love the most. Try to forget about what you must do -- that will still be there. Dancing, playing music, your favorite restaurant, walking across the Brooklyn Bridge or visiting any high place: this will change your perspective and open your mind. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 You know what matters to you. You have your priorities. And now you’ll be able to act on them without the usual hesitation. You also have some things to say, and whether they’re important to others doesn’t matter: what matters is that you will feel better for letting your thoughts out. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 For the next few weeks, you’ll feel like you have an extra battery pack that you cannot see and that never needs charging. You’re drawing energy from some etheric source that is, in truth, right inside you. Have faith in yourself and your mission; which means, stick to it every day. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 You have some important business to take care of, and you must see about it. The moment you commit to solving this problem, completing an important project or making a long-term commitment, you will get confirmation that you’re doing the right thing. Fortune favors those who are responsible. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 To be a leader, you must be a follower. Any boss who cannot also serve as a competent assistant to someone else is an annoying person. True leadership has a subservient quality. Know your own mind, be true to yourself, and resolve to get along with others, particularly people in authority. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 You have more freedom than you know, and more latitude to make any decision you want. Yet you must consider whether you’re doing the right thing at all times. It will be too easy to make decisions without considering their impact on others; yet you must do so constantly. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 Over the past few days, Mars and Jupiter have moved in your favor. Today’s astrology points to a business or professional opportunity that will increase your visibility and your standing in the world. Visibility means people are watching, and watching closely. Let your true light shine.
