IN THE STARS

You know what you can do, and you’re confident in that. Since you don’t need others to validate your worth, you may forget to validate theirs. But other people need to hear it. Give acknowledgment freely. Look around and you’ll notice that this place wasn’t in your life plan. In fact, you couldn’t have imagined you’d be here, and now it seems like the most natural fit that could be. Trust that fortune will favour you. People open up to you whether you want them to or not. You’ll hear secrets. You’ll hear stories that don’t make sense. But that’s OK. You’ll form an opinion based on what you feel, not what you understand. While it would be foolish to launch your ship straight into a storm, it’s also true that there’s always a storm out there somewhere. Those who wait for calm seas everywhere will never launch. The meal can start a lot of ways – with soup, a salad, a cheese platter – but it almost never starts with candy. Maximum sweetness is something to work up to because there’s nowhere to go from there. VIRGO A fun friend would be thrilled to monopolise your afternoon, and if you take this route, you’ll have the kind of good time that will make you wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Would you rather be weak and look strong or be strong and look weak? You’re too smart to commit to one look. You play each situation as needed, and you let neither pride nor modesty get in the way. What looks pretty in pictures may only be happening in the instant of a camera click. Can it be sustained over time? Keep the principle in mind while you peruse today’s images of so-called real life. You know that you are enough just as you are. You don’t have to prove yourself by showing what you can do or spending lavishly. If you chose to do these things, it will be out of enjoyment, not insecurity. CAPRICORN Those on the inside seem to know more than those on the outside, but this is only a social illusion. You can be a part of any group you want to be a part of today. Introduce yourself. AQUARIUS You’re building something new. Without firm, hard, strong principles, this thing can’t stand. You also need open clearings for light, air, and a good flow of people and ideas to come in and out. PISCES Someone who believes in you and encourages you – this is no small luxury to have in your life. Many never get this and live without feeling particularly understood or valued. Celebrate your supporters.
