Your Stars
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Thoughtless people need your tolerance. Think of this as a test. If you fail it, cut yourself a break. It only means that your coping resources are already a bit stretched. Compassion starts with self-compassion.
TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): There’s much to be gained by suspending disbelief long enough to, say, get immersed in the world of a movie or understand the finer points of an argument you do not agree with.
GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You have the strength, guts and initiative to do things your way, which flies in the face of convention and is sure to evoke bewilderment from most onlookers. In time, bewilderment will turn to admiration.
CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): Endings do not have to be failures; they don’t even have to be losses. Things end because it’s time for them to. Then the graceful thing is to acknowledge the crowd with a bow and get off the stage.
LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Remember when you thought you needed a Frappuccino but really needed an apple? Or you thought you needed a cookie and what you really needed was a support system? Today you know exactly what you need.
VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Groups have personalities. No single person in the group is responsible for the entire personality of the group, but everyone contributes. Pay attention to tone of the group on the whole. Is it for you?
LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Some feelings are hard to name – combo platters of emotion with spice levels of varying intensity. Try to put words to it, if only for your own edification. The words will make the feelings more palatable.
SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Anyone can click with someone who shares interests and general worldviews. It takes a superstar to find ways to connect with people when such things are not readily apparent.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Relationships are worth it no matter how short they turn out to be, no matter how lucrative the arrangement is, or how frustrating or thrilling. You’re better for it. That’s the takeaway.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Get the right tools for the job, even if it costs more or pushes back your start time. You’ll go in with higher enthusiasm and morale and avoid much frustration throughout the life of the project.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): The same location can represent “vacation and freedom” to one person and “work and obligation” to another. When you’re there because you want to be there, it’s an entirely different place.
PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Here’s an approach that might be liberating because decision-making gets easier; instead of right or wrong, good or terrible, think of things as “for me” or “not for me”.
