Intuition Moon: Some say that recurring dreams are your mind dealing with unresolved issues. Solve the problem in real life and you’ll change the dream. In the final days of Neptune’s retrograde, the moon floats the Piscean sea of intuition, lending some otherworld­ly level insight as to how to process life’s little messes, close the loops and tie off the loose ends.

CAPRICORN

(December 22 to January 19)

You’re not trying to live dangerousl­y; it’s just what naturally happens when you aim for daring goals. You’ll keep your eye on the prize, and the periphery will be a blur. To be a bit fuzzy about the risks involved works to your advantage.

AQUARIUS

(January 20 to February 18)

It doesn’t matter who is chosen first or third or not at all. What matters is what happens. It’s a waste of energy to worry about rankings or status indicators. Just stick to your mission and things will work out.

PISCES

(February 19 to March 20)

Relationsh­ips are like chords -- built one note at a time. Stay on your lovely note and see who chimes in with you. It only takes one other tone to make it a chord, and really any tone will do.

ARIES

(March 21 to April 19)

You’re paying attention. You’ll recognize where you’re at with someone through the tone of your interactio­ns. When it’s a little off the norm, you notice. When it’s particular­ly sweet, you give back in kind.

TAURUS

(April 20 to May 20)

Almost everything you see out there is not you -- a humbling fact that makes you wonder about your place in it all. While you’ll experiment to figure it out, never doubt that you have a place and that your role is essential.

GEMINI

(May 21 to June 21)

Take things as you find them. Facts are facts. The longer you hold on to informatio­n, the more you influence it. It will help you now to know how things stand independen­t of you. Only then can you really understand your influence.

CANCER

(June 22 to July 22)

Theatrics are unnecessar­y, especially if your aim is to stir things up. To surprise and alarm people, you don’t have to do anything other than tell the truth. The more unpretenti­ous and real you are, the more effective you’ll be.

LEO

(July 23 to August 22)

The drama unfolds. There’s no clear winner here, nor is there a solid sense of right and wrong. Humans are messy. They connect and disconnect haphazardl­y. Don’t worry about making sense of it. Time will reveal additional relevant details.

VIRGO

(August 23 to September 22)

There’s a heightened quality to the day. The natural world invites your appreciati­on. You’ll experience visual poetry. Things seem more dramatic set against the ever-changing sky.

LIBRA

(September 23 to October 23)

You don’t have to seek trouble, nor should you go out to meet it. There’s much that can happen in the stretch between you and the problem. This time, it will be better to sit back and see who intervenes.

SCORPIO

(October 24 to November 21)

Like and when The value some back. all resources, your time, money attention become undervalue­d they are given too freely. increases when you hold

SAGITTARIU­S

(November 22 to December 21)

With certain people, you’ll keep your feelings tucked away. It’s appropriat­e. They wouldn’t know what to do with the full-fledged version of you. Be sure to air those feelings when it’s safe, as no good comes from bottling up indefinite­ly.
