Happy birthday for Monday, March 16, 2009:

You are in the final year of an 11-year cycle. What hasn’t really worked during this time needs to be let go of before your next birthday. Your life will become much harder if you insist on holding on to untenable situations. Release and relax. If you are single, you don’t need to spend money in order to impress a member of the opposite sex. You want to be loved for who you really are, not for the person you project. It is important to be authentic. If you are attached, make the budget a mutual project, and you both will be happier. A mutual commitment can bring a lot of happiness. Sagittarius pushes you into the limelight.

Aries (March 21-April 19) •••• A somewhat-challenging situation should be used to continue to explore options. What haven’t you been looking at? Everyone has blinders; try to discern yours and remove them.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) • • • • Relate on a close level, and you’ll get past a problem effectively. Discussions bring up many new points of view. If you are feeling frustrated, angry or hurt, express those concerns. Holding back makes you like a bull in a china shop.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) • • • • Others run with the ball. You might feel that someone is pushing you too hard. Note how you handle this situation. Look at the pressure that is building, and find a way to defuse the situation. Don’t allow a relationship to corner you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • Curb being a bit outrageous, and you will return to being somewhat more like yourself. If you are depressed, open up and discuss your intense feelings or lack of feelings. Honor who you are emotionally and take care of yourself first. Center.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • Know when to kick back and say you have had enough. You might have a lot coming up. Dealing with this personal/emotional issue could have you very tired and questioning.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • Your words might come off much harder than you realize. Understand that everyone has times when he or she has had enough. Why should you be any different? Be careful using machinery when irritated. Tap into a special friend.
