If it’s your birthday

You must stand up for what means the most to you: the causes, the people, and the ideas. It’s too easy for you to remain silent, thinking someone will finally speak out and take action. Yet in all that you do, particularly your most intimate relationships, you must be cautious about jealousy. You don’t need it, nor does it help anyone you care about. You share a birthday with Pablo Picasso, Adam Goldberg and Ciara. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 You seem intent on taking action and setting things right in the world. You would be illadvised to go it alone, however. You need support, and you have support. You need partners who share some common values; and from the look of your solar chart, you have many to choose from. APRIL 20-MAY 20 One of the most overlooked though essential facets of relationship is the spiritual connection. This goes deeper than what music you like, what food you prefer, or how much money someone has. It may be the deepest element of all. Today’s astrology reminds you that this is the true point of contact. MAY 21-JUNE 20 Not everyone shares your work ethic. Not everyone has the abundant energy that comes so naturally to you, especially now. You have the energy and creative mojo to redesign a city, to write a book, or to create a movie. While you’re doing those things, help others as you can. JUNE 21-JULY 22 You may feel pulled between the demands of a serious relationship, and the desire to have fun and celebrate love. This is a teaching moment; the contrast is certainly interesting. It’s one thing to be committed in a partnership, though the fun zone should be an easy place to get to. JULY 23-AUG. 22 Avoid people with competitive attitudes at work today. Just steer clear of them, especially the moment they start keeping score. You have plenty to get done, and you can do it just fine on your own. Your intuition will be right on, as well. You know what’s right, and you can see around corners. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 Today’s aspects could bring out the super-serious adult in you, or the little child, who so rarely gets to play. Children take a serious approach to play, because it’s more fun; and you can take a playful approach to work. Engage with the interesting people around you. Listen to their stories. SEPT. 23-OCT. 22 If you’re called upon to take care of a domestic matter today, or to help a partner, prioritize that, and invest actions with some enthusiasm. That’s to say, be cheerful if you’re called to assist, and offer your services in a spirit of love. That matters more than the task at hand. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 Attend to a matter of joint finances today, and figure out where a partner is coming from. Make sure you gently poke and prod and get the whole story, and make sure that you say what you must. Get the numbers out on the table, and you’ll have a much better idea how to proceed. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 Today’s aspects are urging you to go out of your way to be fair. Give people the benefit of the doubt. Leave the tip at lunch or, better still, pick up the tab. Forgive minor transgressions. You may also have an opportunity to advocate for someone who truly needs your help or support. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 Emphasize cooperation and collaboration in all that you do. You may be feeling isolated today, and you may be feeling misunderstood. Those sensations are an illusion. People care about you; though this will be easier to notice if you come out of your shell and openly care for them. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 You are getting a glimpse of the future. You are seeing what’s possible because it’s actually happening. None of this is based on magic or luck. It’s all based on your commitment to doing the right thing, and being true to your own potential. Appreciate these days, and learn all you can.
