The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Avoid anyone with a controlling attitude. You will have your hands full, and might want to act spontaneously. You won’t have time to get involved in a control game.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

When a friend decides to take a stand, you will handle his or her attitude with ease. You might not agree and could opt to head in a different direction.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Your playfulness might seem inappropriate, especially as others seem to be dealing with more serious concerns. You are capable of scoffing at someone’s attempt to gain control.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You might want to think through a problem more carefully. You could find that you don’t have the time to respond to a quickly building exchange of ideas. If you think about what you are hearing and seeing, you’ll learn that both sides have validity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will express your thoughts in a diplomatic way. Don’t be surprised if someone reads between the lines and becomes explosive. Sit down with this person and use your creativity to work through the issue to both parties’ satisfaction.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You might feel as if you can’t come to an agreement with a friend. A serious conversation involving your domestic life could be heavier than it needs to be. Re-evaluate this same topic in two months, and your perspective will have changed.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

How you think and what you do could change quickly as you note some upset around your day-to-day life situations. Let go, and allow others more freedom to make their own decisions. A serious discussion might help you to understand others’ choices.

You could be in a situation where you are being asked to make a decision in one person’s favour. Be diplomatic when handling this matter. Learning how to gracefully back off and not get mired in quicksand will become an art for you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Friends have a lot to share, and you enjoy those moments. Excitement surrounds you, especially if you choose to focus on all of the unexpected happenings taking place. Learn to deal with others, and recognize that you do not need to be like them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Take charge of a situation rather than let it get out of control. The issue might be how to take the lead without upsetting those around you. You could end up in a dismal power play if you don’t use your innate leadership skills.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You could be looking at issues very differently from how you have in the past. As you become more detached, you will be better able to identify with others. Use caution when dealing with finances. Don’t try so hard to meet others’ needs.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You are capable of relating closely to most people. A talk about what you represent and what you have to offer could surprise you. Avoid having a knee-jerk reaction. Honour who you are more often, and the results will please you.
