IN THE STARS

ARIES

To feel that everything is a necessity is a warning sign that you may be avoiding an uncomfortable reality. The truth is that your necessities are covered, for the most part. So what is this sense of urgency about?

TAURUS

Eye contact is your most effective accessory. Of course, it’s impossible to wear well while using your phone. It’s like hiding a Cartier watch in your pants pocket.

GEMINI

An obsession with the perfect moments of the past can be a lovely distraction every bit as fanciful as fictional storytelling. Tap into your own artistry. Play around with this. History is more art than science.

CANCER

No place is inherently superior. Each place is just a better or worse fit for the organism trying to inhabit it. Though there may be no point to building a metaphorical boat, build it anyway. You will sail.

LEO

When you act intentionally, your action has a purpose. When you act unintentionally, the purpose is lost. Get aware. If you don’t know your own motivations, figure them out or make them up.

VIRGO

The scene will change, and you will need to change, too. That which dissolves you allows you the opportunity to build yourself up anew (and to custom specs, too).

LIBRA

The story of meeting a person is likely to reflect the story of the entire relationship. No pressure! But it does make you think twice about your social game – and introductions specifically.

SCORPIO

You have already learned what you need to do. Now the question is whether you are at liberty to do so. This is one of those times when it will be better to seek forgiveness than permission.

SAGITTARIUS

Your contributions are quality and should be honoured as such. Particularly precious is your attention. Loved ones need to value this, or you will not be very inclined to give it so well again.

CAPRICORN

Lao Tzu said, “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.” Today, you’ll get the opportunity to benefit from both sides of this statement.

AQUARIUS

People may behave in pitiful ways, but do not give them your pity. No one knows what to do with pity. You can’t eat it or wear it. Give help, support or something more concrete instead.

PISCES

You need more muscles to frown than you do to smile. Both are more interesting than a blank stare (creepy!), which takes no effort at all. Emotional engagement is your preferred work of the day.
