If it’s your birthday

Your ruling planet Venus entering Cancer on your birth anniversary indicates a time of improved relationships with your community, finding your voice, and getting better in business. You have what people want, on every level. Make peace with the fact that you are attractive, and the attention this brings you. It’s a resource you can use, like any other. You share a birthday with Lorraine Hansberry, Nora Ephron and Sam Smith. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 What is rightly yours, nobody can take away from you. So don’t fear that they can. Remain in possession of your peace of mind, the sanctity of your home, and your divine right to feel what you feel. In fact, you can make these things a priority, focus on them, and develop them beautifully. MAY 21-JUNE 20 Venus has left your sign and is now in Cancer, which for you is about cash flow, resources and feeling good about what you do. You can tap into many excellent ideas, and put them to use. Your ideas are valuable, though they are more so if you focus on one and fully develop it. JUNE 21-JULY 22 Today’s ingress of Venus into your birth sign will help you tip the scales of justice in your favor. Many new planetary cycles have begun during the past few days, and Venus in your sign gives you a tap into all of them. Reassess your whole life carefully. You will like what you discover. JULY 23-AUG. 22 You know something that others do not know. You have the missing piece that assembles the puzzle; you possess the keystone that holds up the whole bridge of a certain idea. This gives you significant power to help others who are currently sitting in the dark, wondering what to do. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 You have many ways to express yourself. You don’t need to limit yourself to any one, such as thinking that a certain mode of expression is the right one, or the only valid one. You can experiment, which means trying something in a sincere way, and seeing what results you get. Then, keep experimenting. SEPT. 23-OCT. 22 Venus crossing the midheaven angle of your solar chart points to some new, unusual and exciting success. Yet this is unlikely to happen in the way that you might have been expecting. And remember, it’s not about your talent or your mission; this is all about you, and who you are. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 Your ruling planet Mars, and many other planets, have changed signs over the past few days. This suggests that you are in a new mental and emotional environment. The positions of people around you have grown, changed and evolved. Find out where everyone is at; notice where you are at. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 It’s time to get out of your mind, and into your feelings and your senses. This is especially true in relationships, where there seems to have been all too much idle conversation in recent weeks, and not enough contact and exchange. Being close to someone seems riskier than it is. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 There may seem to be all kinds of fireworks going off around you, as people make discoveries about themselves, make big decisions and decide to change their lives. Where does that leave you? Well, what do you want from life? Are you picking up any good ideas? How do you feel? JAN. 20-FEB. 18 Are you catching up with everyone else, or are they catching up with you? It doesn’t matter: you’re making progress. You are now in an experimental phase of trying out new things. Test certain decisions and ways of life, and then you will need to carefully evaluate the results. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 Venus is the latest planet to change signs; earlier today, it entered your house of art, pleasure and play. If you’ve been having a stressful time lately, or even if not, it’s time to finally relax and take in some fresh air, sunshine and, most of all, the affection of someone you care about.
