Whether you're about to celebrate your birthday, or have months to wait until your special day, this week's horoscope makes fascinating reading.
If you thought your horoscope could only tell you about your personality - or who you ought to date - you were wrong.
Because your zodiac can also tell you a lot of other interesting little titbits as well. Think your ideal alcoholic beverage and dream engagement ring, for starters.
Your star sign can also help you to plan for the week ahead - if you know how to read it, that is. Thank goodness, then, for Closer astrologer Yasmin Boland, who has examined the stars of the zodiac to bring you your VERY detailed weekly horoscope.
If it's your birthday this week...
With everything you gain, you lose something too. Don’t take this as negative, it’s the way the Universe works. The changes you’ve made may feel like a loss in the short term, but trust that it’s a gain for the long term – and that they will soon pay off.
Closer horoscopes
1 of 12AQUARIUS
Some tough lessons about cash have been dished out to you recently. Chances are, you’re feeling a little bit confused about what to do next. If that’s the case, do nothing this week. As they say, if in doubt, don’t. Sometimes the best thing to do is absolutely nothing.
2 of 12PISCES
Be gentle with yourself as your energy is likely to be lower than usual now. Rather than pushing for progress, use what you have to allow bubbles of creativity to rise up to the surface. It’s your imagination where the magic happens. Dream the impossible dream and then get to work.
3 of 12ARIES
Recent confusion involving who you are or what you want will begin to dissipate this week. Now that Mercury is back on track in your sign, anything that has been moving frustratingly slow will now garner speed. Second chances are now possible. It’s OK if you choose to change your mind now.
4 of 12TAURUS
Last week’s drama starts to settle down a bit. But this isn’t an invitation to go back to your old ways. Once a rubber band has been stretched, it doesn’t go back to its old dimensions. Everything is likely to look a bit different now, including you!
5 of 12GEMINI
You can expect recent confusion regarding a friendship or community situation to begin to clear up this week. Soon, you’re going to be in a massive growth phase and not everyone can come along for the ride. Sad but true. Not everything can go back to the way it was before.
6 of 12CANCER
Professional and/or life direction hiccups begin to subside now. Despite this, those hiccups were enough for you to question your ambitions and the things you thought you wanted. There’s a reason it’s called the path less travelled. You’re invited to take the path you thought you wouldn’t.
7 of 12LEO
Now that the Sun, your guiding star, is at the very top of your Horoscope, it’s your time to shine at work. Step up into being the natural leader you were born to be. Also, don’t be afraid of bucking convention, either. Do what you want to do, not what others want.
8 of 12VIRGO
Love and money are often intertwined. As much as you try to separate them, somehow, they are two sides of the same coin. It’s time you make some choices that empower you even if it seems a little selfish. You can have it all, provided you know what you want.
9 of 12LIBRA
When it comes to the daily grind, the pace has been nothing short of punishing. With little fuel left in your tank, the finish line is near. Do continue to put some of your needs first as you let go of bad habits. You’ve had to do what gets you through.
10 of 12SCORPIO
Romance is looking pretty steamy for you right now. You could get lost in the moment. Whether that moment is something that could change things for the better or you might later wonder about, there is only one way to find out. There is no reward without risk, so risk it!
11 of 12SAGITTARIUS
Life and love are about to get so much better for you that you can almost feel it. That being said though, you’re not there yet! You still have work to do, so you best focus on that for now. Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.
12 of 12CAPRICORN
Life at home is about to get back to some kind of version of smooth sailing. You’ll be glad for that after a period of confusion and miscommunication. Now that things are back to regular programming, relax a little bit. There is work yet to be done, but not this week.
