If it’s your birthday

Pause when you feel like you’re under pressure that you don’t understand. Notice when you feel as if you’re being pushed around, especially by the influences of your family. You’re at a stage in life when your single most important mission is taking charge of your life in a fully conscious way -- which means being aware of “unconscious” influences. You share a birthday with Lonne Elder iii, Lars ulrich, and kit harington. march 21-aPriL 19 To succeed, you must be seen and known. This is no time to hide in the shadows. it’s time to stand in the light, and to put your skills and talents on display. Sign your work with your real name, and don’t worry if you feel vulnerable being so open. That means you’re being real. aPriL 20-maY 20 one of the great mystical texts says, “Everyone teaches, and teaches all the time.” once you understand that, you will remember that your life is an example to others, in a time when positive influences are needed rather desperately. You don’t need to be perfect, only to stretch gently in that direction. maY 21-JuNE 20 over the past week, so many things have changed in your solar chart that you may feel like you’re living in a whole new world. This is true enough. The emphasis of your life is now on your ability to negotiate and work well with others. if you can muster that, you can accomplish anything. JuNE 21-JuLY 22 if you’re returning to work today, notice the ways that your orientation on partnership and collaboration has changed -- as if overnight. in a sense, you have received a promotion. Your role is to work in support of those in leadership, and to learn these vital skills. They are in demand. JuLY 23-auG. 22 remember that nothing is as powerful as an idea, especially if you refine it and put it to work. Yet all the effort in the world would be useless without the guidance of a creative concept connected to a goal. and concepts are worth very little unless people are willing to invest effort in them. auG. 23-SEPT. 22 it’s necessary to make space and time for what you want the most. it does not just happen spontaneously, though we always think it should. Therefore, don’t be afraid to make artist dates, play dates, sex dates and home-cooked dinner with yourself dates, and put some solid structure around that time. SEPT. 23-ocT. 22 Western society tends to discount the power of the ancestors; we usually think of this as only being valid for people in aboriginal societies. however, your charts are describing some unusually potent information if you would only tune into your family line, and tap the wisdom of the generations. ocT. 23-NoV. 21 Take a moment to resolve a financial issue that’s been bugging you for weeks. it will yield easily to your intelligence and resourcefulness. The moral of the story is that you must think bigger. in working out this problem, you can also get yourself onto a new economic level. NoV. 22-DEc. 21 Your greatest asset is your optimism. You know that there’s always a solution, an idea, or a good time just around the corner. Be bold about your passions and your curiosity. The world may seem to be falling apart, though what others consider adversity, you know is really opportunity. JaN. 20-FEB. 18 For now, point your awareness inward. That’s the place you need to scope out, and seek your personal truth. it’s true that you’re a social person, but you also need more satisfying personal interactions. They way to cultivate those is to get to know yourself better than you ever have. FEB. 19-march 20 You’re now in a position to build on your success. Do this calmly and confidently. know that you’re working on a different level than you were in recent months and even years. People see you as established and solid; you don’t need to explain that part at all. Just do what needs to be done.
