If today is your birthday:

Thanks to your hard work, you might have time to take a romantic jaunt to an inspiring location or enjoy a well-deserved vacation during the upcoming three to four weeks. You could be invigorated by a sense of good health and eager to conquer new challenges in March and April. You might feel ambitious in late April through early June, but guard against misplaced optimism, because you might not be as adept at business tactics and handling money as you think. Having the street smarts to strategise and the common sense to take advantage of trends might pay off in July, as you are able to make a profit when a business opportunity is at hand. Rely on a circle of friends to steer you in the right direction.
