HOROSCOPES
To the untrained eye, it may seem as though certain people and things are upsetting. However, you know better. The upset is caused by an interpretation of what’s going on, not what’s actually going on. An interpretation is something that can be changed. Decide how you’re going to see things before tomorrow’s new moon.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Walk in the sunshine. Eat delicious food. The sensuality of life will somehow feel like a thrilling escape and the sweet embrace of home all at the same time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You like people who surprise you, even if the surprise is a bit weird. You’d much rather be jolted by the unexpected than lulled into a waking slumber by the tedium of the overly familiar.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The person who has to make everything about himself or herself won’t change the pattern just for you. However, you may inspire this person to at least be more aware of that dynamic today, which is a start.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Getting the approval of others, avoiding their disapproval, giving a stellar performance, having things the way you want them ... all of that is nice, but not necessary to your happiness.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Avoiding responsibility doesn’t make anyone happier or freer. It seems like it should! But there’s a great deal of good that comes out of accepting responsibility, and you provide plenty of proof for that.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be developing a better way of looking at your life and some more supportive self-talk to go along with that new view. What would you tell a friend to help them if they were your position?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Service makes you feel good about who you are and your place in the world. You’ll love what comes out of this today, and you will likely sign up for more in the future.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Goodbyes are important. Whether they are happy, relieving or tearful, it is better to have the closure than not. Today, you’ll get closure on a limbo situation.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When experiencing unpleasant emotions, you know not to get stuck there. You will quickly do something to create a different emotion and this fluidity of feeling keeps the day clipping along.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be especially susceptible to imagery today. Take advantage of this by seeking out inspirational pictures of the life you desire, the person you want to be and the environment of your peaceful daydreams.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re starting to accumulate many positive experiences. It’s as though you could stack them high enough to block out the negativity of the past. This is a building project worth devoting yourself to.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). How you spend your day is how you’re spending your life. You’re so aware of this now that you may be moved to cut out an activity for good because it sucks time away from things you would rather be doing.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 17). A new hobby or interest is burbling up now and will take hold and solidify in 2018. Once you figure out the particulars, your commitment to the endeavor will introduce you to new people and places. Your family will grow in the new year. Your leadership will be often requested and sometimes paid for. Pisces and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 2, 28, 40 and 15.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: When you like someone, make it known. Bonus points for including some of the reasons why. TAURUS: You refuse to fall into rigid patterns in a relationship and this is why the connection stays springy and fun. GEMINI: You don’t set out to teach someone a lesson, and yet your love can’t help but have a teaching aspect to it. CANCER: Someone is falling in love with your smile. LEO: You make the rules about how you get treated. If it’s subpar, walk. VIRGO: Your love is keenly felt, but you’re not quite ready to be vocal about it. Anyway, you hope your actions speak louder. LIBRA: The reason you plan your dates so well is that you want every minute someone spends with you to count. SCORPIO: Not in your usual mysterious mood, you’ll give as much information about yourself as feels cool to do. Your main goal is to set the other person at ease. SAGITTARIUS: You give your love in a way that’s very specific, memorable and completely unique. CAPRICORN: You’ll find out what a person’s like under pressure. This is when true character emerges. AQUARIUS: Everything your love does and says will reveal something. You’re willing to hear and see it. PISCES: Be slow to hit “send.” Possibly get someone else to read what you wrote before sending.
