Aries (March 21-April 19): Be good to those in close connection and they will be good to you. Just because a family member is in a bad mood or involved in a tiresome task does not mean that you aren’t loved and appreciated.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Consider where you have come from and compare it to where you are now. You can trace the steps that it took to land you in this particular place at this time. Be grateful for your blessings.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): A smile can pave the way. “Forgive and forget” should be your motto, especially if you have had a tension filled week. Show genuine interest in the lives of others to win new friends.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Rustle up your roots. Explore the family tree and make fascinating discoveries about ancestors. There may be more than one surprise waiting for you related to your health or job.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Rise to the surface. You’ve been drowning in your work and it’s time to come up for air. Take the weekend off and have a little fun. Both your mood and your performance will improve.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Simulate Star Trek’s Spock. In an illogical world, take pride in the ability to be logical. While others struggle to come to grips with their delusions you can work methodically behind the scenes.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Put on a happy face; let people judge you like a book’s cover. People may think you possess special talents or capabilities. Don’t disappoint anyone by promising more than you can deliver.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may be tempted to jump to a quick compromise to avoid conflict. It is better to maintain your position or you risk making matters even worse. Avoid spending money foolishly.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): This isn’t the right time to throw your weight around or push for the advantage. Sidestep squabbles and confrontations. Do not give in to fleeting obsessions or gamble with resources.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t rock the boat. Don’t deviate from established norms and stick with the game plan. Whatever can go wrong may go wrong with newly launched projects so adhere to usual routines.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Keep on plugging away. You shouldn’t give up on an ongoing project just because someone in authority is unpleasant or caustic. Ward off criticisms with humility and kind words.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Pretend to be confident and fears will disappear. Uncertainty and doubt might jeopardize a close relationship. Go out of your way to clear the air and be especially attentive to a loved one.
If January 7 is your birthday: Your objectives could be undergoing major reevaluations as the next four to six weeks unfold. Carefully weigh options before reaching a final decision because you could burn necessary bridges. March is the best month to make financial decisions or changes in your business plan as your shrewdness is at a high point. The new hookup or romantic partner in your life might not be interested in a long-term relationship but if you focus on friendship you will find that things will fall into place. August may be the best month for a major job or career change or to pout business plans into motion.
