If it’s your birthday

You may not fancy yourself a revolutionary; but you are different, and you’re doing very different things with your life compared to what most people even imagine. And in order to grow and continue succeeding, you must keep doing things your way and in your time. That will require some finesse, and perhaps a bit of persuasion, though in the end, people accept you. You share a birthday with Leonardo da Vinci, Emma Thompson, and Samira Wiley. JUNE 21-JULY 22 This moment, no matter how strange, chaotic, or unpredictable it may seem, is a breakthrough for you. Do not be afraid. Point your heart, your soul and your intentions in the direction that you want to go. Aspire not just to great things, but to relevant and necessary ones. Aspire to be human. JULY 23-AUG. 22 The Grateful Dead used to sing that the small wheel turns by the fire and rod, and the big wheel turns by the grace of God. The big wheel is now turning, and this is an invitation to renew your faith in yourself, in the future and in humanity, no matter what anyone thinks is going on. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 Your life these days is an exercise in holistic awareness: of having all the seeming parts of your life work with all the others, especially your relationships. While you find it natural to seek yourself in others, you would be wise to direct some of that energy into the sacred mirror. SEPT. 23-OCT. 22 Venus in Taurus is offering you protection in times of rapid change. In a sense, you are above the transformations that you and your partners are going through. You might consider that part of you is already where you need to be, and the rest of you is catching up. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 You are transforming from the most seemingly mundane aspects of your life, into your sense of mission and purpose for living. From this point forward, do only work that is personally relevant to you; and, as a poet once wrote, remember that your job is to shed light and not to master. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 The world is on notice that you are your own person. Not everyone is, and not everyone around you will appreciate that you are, whether you consider yourself artist, lover or adventurer. That’s OK. Your job is not to make anyone feel comfortable. Your job is to be real. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 You have reached a threshold of setting yourself free from your family, and now that may include certain members of your tribe or inner circle who are not up to the same tasks as you are. You cannot really be a member of a group until you emerge as a distinct individual. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 If you have a message, this is a lavishly beautiful time in your life -- if a dangerous one. You are carrying a torch whether you recognize it or not. You are on a mission. This places a high level of responsibility on your shoulders, and the demand that you be impeccable at all times. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 Money is not everything, but right now it’s a vitally important part of your life. The reason for this is that it funds everything you do. Several events today and into the week describe you taking up a whole new approach and even a level of mastery around your finances. May your abundance flow.
