HOROSCOPE

BIRTHDAY TUESDAY

Push yourself beyond your normal limits and don’t doubt for a moment that you will succeed. The more you test yourself now the greater the rewards, personal and financial, will be from six to 12 months hence. There is so much more you are capable of.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You may be tempted to kick up a fuss because someone has let you down today but ask yourself: is it worth the effort? Life will only be an ordeal if you make it an ordeal, so sit back, relax and watch the world go by.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

It would be easy to point out the flaws in another person’s belief system but would it make any difference? Probably not. Some people can be incredibly stubborn (look in the mirror occasionally!) so don’t waste your time or energy on them.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

You may be tempted to play things by ear today but the planets warn you are likely to regret it. You will do best if you have a specific aim in mind and a workable plan that will get you from A to B by the shortest route.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Do you tell a friend what they want to hear or what they need to hear? It’s up to you, of course, but sometimes it’s best to get bad news over with quickly. Don’t worry too much about their feelings - they’ll get over it.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

There is a danger that you will try so hard to make a good impression that you end up turning people against you. There is no point pretending to be something you are not because others will see through your act. Be yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

You don’t have to try too hard today but you do have to make some sort of an effort. Where money matters are concerned you should check each and every detail twice at least, because errors could have costly consequences.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

Your confidence may be high at the moment but don’t take too much for granted. This is a great time for making plans but you must also remember to be flexible as even the best laid plans sometimes have to be changed at the last moment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

Someone who tries to convince you that you owe them in some way is not to be trusted - they are obviously after something at your expense. Just because you feel so good about life does not mean you have to give what you own away.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

There are things going on behind the scenes that you won’t know about until later in the month, so take life as it comes and don’t let minor setbacks or disappointments get to you. You are still moving in the right direction.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan 20):

The more certain people say you should trust them today the more you should be on your guard. It is unlikely they are trying to deliberately mislead you but the planets warn that they themselves may have been misled. Be careful.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Lady Luck will come knocking over the next 48 hours and you should grab what she has to offer with both hands. You may be tempted to wait a while for an even better deal but if it doesn’t come you will hate yourself. Go for it now.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

The more time and energy you have put into something the more reluctant you will be to give up on it but deep down you know the break needs to be made. Clear a space in your life and something better will come in to fill it.
