IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS THIS WEEK ... Long-term family or housing decisions should be avoided over the next nine weeks. In the coming weeks, loved ones, roommates or romantic partners will quickly reverse their opinions, needs or priorities. Expect ongoing debate but wait for reliable financial improvements before taking action. At present, income and security matters are best thoroughly researched. Early next year a powerful wave of social interest and romantic involvement arrives. Marital proposals, sudden family events or planned celebrations are accented before mid-August. Next year is a promising year for rapid social and romantic expansion. Use this time to establish shared goals and long-term commitments.
