YOUR LUCK TODAY

-

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

A year of ups and downs is indicated for you. Try to focus on whatever is vital, and that means sidesteppi­ng costly distractio­ns. Keep yourself in shape, mentally and physically, in order to deal effectivel­y with whatever turns up.

ARIES: Mar 21 – Apr 21

Everything has its worth and purpose – even failure and rejection, as you will discover. Your disappoint­ment in one instance should have a magical effect in another; could lead to opportunit­y and happiness you have not hitherto known. (PHONE 083 9140 501) (SMS ARI to 34703)

TAURUS: Apr 21 – May 21

Guard against being unpunctual because it could cost you dearly. Do not hesitate when there is work to be done. Personal efficiency is all-important now. You will experience a setback of shocking proportion if you let yourself down. (PHONE 083 9140 502) (SMS TAU to 34703)

GEMINI: May 21 – Jun 22

Nostalgia moves in on you like a mist at this juncture so you will likely not achieve very much in concrete terms while you are reminiscin­g over people and events that have made indelible impression­s on your mind and your imaginatio­n. (PHONE 083 9140 503) (SMS GEM to 34703)

CANCER: Jun 22 – Jul 23

You are now apt to take chances that you would normally shun. Take great care with matters of vital concern. Careful planning must be underscore­d with good timing. Especially guard against allowing reckless companions to lead you astray. (PHONE 083 9140 504) (SMS CAN to 34703)

LEO: Jul 23 – Aug 24

It is now necessary for you to take courage from previous pain and to utilise that boldness and strength to deal with another emotionall­y draining episode. You probably need to be a tower of strength for a relative or friend as well. (PHONE 083 9140 505) (SMS LEO to 34703)

VIRGO: Aug 24 – Sep 23

Life can be so unpredicta­ble at times; just when you think you are secure and safe, you find that you have some strife building up again. The storm may not be too severe this time around yet it could nonetheles­s unsettle your nerves. (PHONE 083 9140 506) (SMS VIR to 34703)

LIBRA: Sep 23 – Oct 23

Make a point of getting your financial affairs in super order before you consider taking on a costly new responsibi­lity. You are bound to pay heavily for your folly if you treat fiscal matters lightly. Keep a watch on all expenses. (PHONE 083 9140 507) (SMS LIB to 34703)

SCORPIO: Oct 23 – Nov 23

You are pretty clear with regard to analysing and summing up issues; and only too ready to express what is on your mind. However, be warned that your independen­t line of thought could put you at odds with the popular point of view. (PHONE 083 9140 508) (SMS SCO to 34703)

SAGITTARIU­S: Nov 23 – Dec 22

A reliable member of your family could probably provide the best guidance now that you are wrestling with a difficult decision. Try to be entirely positive and practical if you have no one to advise you. Do not allow fears to develop. (PHONE 083 9140 509) (SMS SAG to 34703)

CAPRICORN: Dec 22 – Jan 21

This is not a time for taking gambles and risks so give careful considerat­ion to your proposed actions, and resist going ahead with anything of a hazardous nature. Careful planning is essential and must be underlined with good timing. (PHONE 083 9140 510) (SMS CAP to 34703)

AQUARIUS: Jan 21 – Feb 20

In standing in for someone who is indisposed, you might find that you have to take on much more than you anticipate­d. Moreover, an unapprecia­tive companion or colleague may not only take your help for granted but also complain a lot. (PHONE 083 9140 511) (SMS AQU to 34703)

PISCES: Feb 20 – Mar 21

Beware of harmful criticism that is levelled at you from an unexpected source. Do not hesitate to stand up to the one who speaks disparagin­gly about you otherwise matters will worsen. Gossip could turn out to be extremely hurtful. (PHONE 083 9140 512) (SMS PIS to 34703)
