CapricornThe Globe and Mail
IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:
Your main task over the coming 12 months is to be a catalyst for change. Capricorn may be a conservative sign by nature but you also want to make the world a better place. How can you use your talents to bring that about?
ARIES (March 21 – April 20):
Today's Mercury-Uranus link warns that what you desire most is unlikely to be good for you, so maybe you need to think again. Try to think through what the consequences might be – it could save you a lot of bother.
TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):
Focus on the big issues today. Don't let little everyday things distract you. Most people seem to enjoy getting caught up in trivial details, but you're not most people, you're a Taurus, so be different.
GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):
Whatever else you do over the next 24 hours you must stay in control of your emotions. If you allow them to get out of hand you could end up in a place you really don't want to be. Stay calm.
CANCER (June 22 – July 23):
You won't be able to hide your thoughts and feelings today – your face will betray you even when you think you are lying convincingly. You might as well open up and let the world know what's in your heart.
LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):
You may be inclined to work harder than ever but it really isn't necessary. Ask yourself, honestly, if there is anything that must be done immediately. Chances are most things can wait a few days.
VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):
Although you are feeling pretty dynamic at the moment you may find it hard to get moving today. Don't let it worry you if nothing much gets done because you will more than make up for it later on.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
Stop wasting time and energy thinking about what might have been and start thinking about what still could be if you get your act together right now. The past is over and done with, so focus on the future.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):
If you don't follow the rules today you could find yourself in a lot of trouble. Be wary of people who try to encourage you to take the kind of risks that even you tend to avoid. They'll lead you astray.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):
You may be a nice guy by nature but you will fight for what you believe and you are certainly no pushover. Who was it who said "Speak softly and carry a big stick"? That's the kind of outlook you need.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):
You may be inclined to throw yourself at each and every challenge that comes your way but that's just a waste of time and energy. Choose your battles carefully and aim to win them one at a time.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):
Rivals and competitors seem determined to give you a hard time but that's okay: you are at your best when it seems as if the world is against you. It's not true, of course, but it does tend to motivate you.
PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):
It may seem as if your life is heading down a predestined course but that isn't strictly true. You can change your destiny any time you choose, but first you need to believe that it's possible. Start believing today.
