This year could be unusually significan­t if you use your energy well when opportunit­ies appear. You seem more desirable to others. People naturally seek you out. An idealistic goal could appear and easily can be manifested.

If you are single, you are likely to attract several potential suitors. Curb a tendency to be too me-oriented. If you are attached, you need to be sensitive and attentive to your sweetie; it isn’t just about you. A fellow Virgo makes you uncomforta­ble with his or her criticism.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★ This is the day that you finally decide to get something off your chest. Hopefully you can find the person who needs to hear this message. The conversati­on you have could mark a new beginning between the two of you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★★ You have an innate quality of wanting to indulge others and make them feel good. Confusion could greet you first, as you might receive an unexpected reaction. Know that you might not be reading the situation clearly. Step back and detach.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★ Use today’s New Moon in your sign to make some decisions or resolution­s, and they are likely to work out. You need to reach out to someone you care about who doesn’t seem to understand you. Try to clarify your feelings to this person.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★ You seem to be able to empower yourself by taking some time alone. As social as you can be, you also need periods for centring and reflection. Passions run high when you share time with a loved one. You know how to indulge this person.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★ When an invitation involving your friends appears, there is only one answer: yes. You might find a get-together relaxing. You also will be able to get a better read on one person who is quite important to you. Be willing to change your plans if necessary.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★ You clearly need to visit with an older friend or relative. Even if you feel as though the relationsh­ip is off, you have the unique opportunit­y to make way for a new beginning. If you need to work, clear the air with a boss.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★ One-on-one relating draws in more informatio­n than you thought was available. You might have some questions, so feel free to ask them. If you don’t, you probably will regret it later. Your relationsh­ip with a special person might be changing. Adjust accordingl­y.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★ Understand what is happening with others. You might not have been as conscious as you have needed to be about key members of your family. Listen to what they share. Encourage others to open up, and allow them to experience more security.
