LOVE AND THE STARS

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You could be seeing the big picture while a friend might not. Allow yourself to let go of recent developments and become more spontaneous. Whether you opt to go off and play a sport or meander into a fun brunch makes no difference. Tonight: Be a little impulsive.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You will need a timeout to catch up on sleep. Exhaustion undermines your enthusiasm and intellectual interest. You might feel as if you can’t do enough for a family member. Fatigue infiltrates nearly everything. Tonight: Happy to stay close to home.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You could feel as if you’re in a bind. Remain positive and optimistic. You might be hearing several different versions of a disagreement. Maintain your sense of humor, and you will make the best of the situation. Return calls. Tonight: Hang out with friends.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Be aware of the costs of accepting a certain invitation. If you feel uptight, take a step back. Get a project completed before meeting up with friends. This will allow you to relax and actually enjoy a fun happening. Tonight: A shared piece of information gives you pause for thought.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

The Moon slides into your sign and makes you the center of all the action. You know what you want, and you’re willing to cross a line to get it. Right now, you simply have to ask. A new friend might delight you with his or her mischievousness. Tonight: Stay in the moment.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Listen to your instincts. You might need some personal time. Create the environment you desire, even if a partner doesn’t seem happy about it. Screen calls if you want to relax. Others will be happy when you reappear. Don’t worry. Tonight: Read between the lines.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are a friend above all, and you often help others achieve what they want. The results will be far better than you initially had thought possible. In fact, you will create a situation that pleases you to no end. A partner might test your limits. Tonight: Where the action is.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Work with a friend or loved one who might want to do something very different from your normal activities. This person will be wary of your attempts to make sure that he or she follows your suggestions. Defer to others more often. Tonight: On center stage.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You could be taken aback by how you feel after having a compassionate talk with a loved one. Accept your differences, and understand where this person is coming from. As a result, you might find some common ground. Tonight: Whatever you choose to do, be with friends.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your vision of possibilities could change after a discussion with your sweetie or a loved one. You might feel as if you have not been as open as you should have been. Let go of remorse; it prevents you from moving forward. Tonight: Go with the good times.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’ll be amazing with your responsiveness. Many people will enjoy being around you for that reason alone. Remain upbeat. An encounter with a friend will illustrate how much he or she cares. Don’t push away someone who tends to be remote. Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Get into a favorite pastime that you associate with this time of year. A friend might decide to join you in a fun escape when he or she sees how upbeat you are. As a result, a new sense of friendship is likely to emerge. Relax with the moment. Tonight: Play it low-key.
