If it’s your birthday

Today’s Moon-Venus conjunction on your birthday is encouraging you to show the world your beauty, and to love with an open heart. You don’t need to save your affection for someone special. Love everyone and everything, and let the good vibes roll. If you go light on expectations, that’s celebrating true freedom, which will radiate into your life many other ways. You share a birthday with Chuck Berry, Ne-Yo, and Freida Pinto. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 With the Moon and Venus making a conjunction today, love is in the air. Yet it would seem that the prevailing problem people have with affection is learning how to receive it. So open up to what’s coming toward you, and appreciate the subtle beauty in everyone, and the hint of boldness in those who seem shy. APRIL 20-MAY 20 Today’s Moon-Venus conjunction is a reward for a job well done. It would seem like you’re involved with some unusual or even extraordinary project that’s brought out the best in you. You’ve learned how to get out of your own way and let your very best work come through. MAY 21-JUNE 20 Be grateful if you have work that you get wrapped up in. If your work is not so thrilling, find ways to make it interesting or turn it into a game. And then look for options and possibilities for what you can do that’s interesting rather than merely designed to pay the bills. JUNE 21-JULY 22 You’ve been living with Pluto as a feature of your solar chart for nearly 10 years, which has a tendency to ramp up the intensity of your relationships, and leave you looking for a safe place. Sometimes you feel it more than others, and you might be feeling it right now. You are safe. JULY 23-AUG. 22 Today’s glorious conjunction of Mercury and Jupiter will either reassure you that you’re utterly safe and secure in the world, or stir up your worst fears. Don’t take either extreme seriously. Make a conscious effort to enjoy what you have, and make a note of where there’s room for improvement. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 It’s easy to blame things on relationships. It’s easy to blame things on other people. It’s more challenging to fully admit to any role you’ve had in creating an issue, or a feeling, though that’s where your power comes from. Taking personal responsibility has absolutely nothing to do with blame. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 At the moment, you seem to be guided by forces you cannot see and may not understand. But you can trust your guidance, especially if listening and following leaves you in a calm and peaceful state. Remember that you have tremendous powers you can use to make the world a better place. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 The only sane role to take in the current world is one fully devoted to planetary service. Anyone taking advantage of others is racking up a load of karma, particularly right now, when so many need so much help. You know how much you can do to improve the situation. So get busy. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 It’s good that you’re willing to be unpopular, though don’t make a thing of it. It’s OK to be mildly entertained if you annoy anyone by telling the truth or doing the right thing, but you’ll tarnish the effects if you take too much pride in that. People know you have guts, even if they don’t say anything. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 You know right from wrong, and it’s essential that you put this awareness to good use. You’re not in any position to violate your own ethics, or any community standards. You have a long leash, but that’s not the point. You must be a shining example to others not as strong as you are. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 Mercury has now joined Jupiter in Scorpio, the sign for you that represents that delightful blend of sexuality and spirituality. This is a bold reminder to engage only with people who share your immense respect for life, and who truly honor something greater than themselves. They do exist.
