Monday, Sept. 26, 2016 Aries (March 21-April 19)

A loved one seems lucky, no matter what he or she does. You might want to ride this person’s coattails. Count on getting an unexpected response. Tonight: Add more playfulness to your day.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Others see you as someone who knows exactly what he or she is aiming for. Getting distracted does not suit you. Nevertheless, a family member demands some of your time. Tonight: Bring home a favorite cheese or dessert.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

New beginnings become possible if you are open to someone who has been a source of inspiration in the past. Listen to news that comes forward from a reticent associate. Tonight: Rethink an agreement.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Cut back on your interactions with others. You could feel as if someone is holding back; however, pushing this person to share more will not have a positive result. Let it go for now. Tonight: Avoid a controlling person.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might want to revisit a conversation that often leads to different solutions. You are likely to hear a lot of different suggestions, some of which could be unworkable. Tonight: Go with the flow.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Make it OK to pull back and get a better sense of direction. You could feel uptight and as if you’re not able to share what is on your mind. Holding back could be a problem. Tonight: Take some time off.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your optimism emerges, which makes you feel as if anything is possible. You might be more serious-minded than you realize. Others will make an effort to get past a problem that could be holding you back. Tonight: Easy works.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’ll want to handle a problem before it becomes more difficult. You might feel as if you must impress an authority figure in your life. A conversation seems to jump from one topic to another. Tonight: Make an important call.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

To friends and loved ones, you could seem a bit discouraged or overly serious. You might not need to pursue your present course if you would rather not. Tonight: Let someone else pick up the tab.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might not feel up to snuff. You could feel as if your day-to-day routine has been disrupted, as you seem to be looking at a whole new set of circumstances. Tonight: Do what you feel is necessary.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Understand that you might not be holding the best hand of cards right now. Let go and worry less. You know that a close associate will be on top of this matter. Tonight: Return calls and reach out to someone at a distance.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Pace yourself. You’ll want to get a lot done and go full speed ahead. However, you are likely to become exhausted a lot more quickly that way than if you were to keep an even pace. Tonight: Get some exercise.
