IN THE STARS

ARIES Why is it that, when you’re in the presence of certain people, you seem to forget everything you’ve learned about love? Luckily, once you’re back in your own realm, it comes back to you. TAURUS The need to be self-sufficient is pronounced when you’re feeling distrustful of a situation. This is not a bad thing today. You’re wise to let the situation prove worthy of your trust before you give it. GEMINI Life is an adventure that doesn’t come with trigger warnings. To try and set up an accurate expectation for others may help interactions go more smoothly, but it also may suck out the surprise and mystery. CANCER Inspiration won’t just come to you today; you’ll have to go to it. The best entry point will be the thing that intrigues you – which is not the thing that’s popular or the thing that “they” want you to explore. LEO The last time you cried, it wasn’t for you, but there was a part of you that could deeply relate to the woes of another. Today, your empathy will bond you in laughter instead of tears. VIRGO You’re pretty clear about your purpose, and this will help you move forward when the work is tough. You won’t even stop to receive praise. You’re doing it for your cause, not for the applause. LIBRA Silence and smiling: two responses you can’t go wrong with today. They’ll be appropriate in so many situations and – bonus – will require almost no special knowledge, skill or willpower to pull off. SCORPIO People do not always know what they need. Help people understand what you’re offering. With the right presentation, you can make them want what they didn’t even know about before. SAGITTARIUS In a capitalist society, people begin to think of themselves as brands. For better or worse, it’s a valid way of organising your options today. Just ask, “What would (insert your own name) do?” CAPRICORN Unsolicited advice is usually taken as an affront, so you try not to give it. But, when it’s offered to you, you see it as valuable info, even if it’s not good advice. It just lets you know how people are thinking. AQUARIUS The one who thinks of you often will continue to do so whether or not you check in. But you’ll find that taking the time to connect will reward you by making you feel good about the kind of person you are. PISCES The world is more explored than ever, but that doesn’t mean there’s not plenty for you to find. Believe in your ability to change a place for the better just by trying to understand it.
