Your Stars

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Someone wants you to make a change from your standard terms, and if you bend, he or she will, too. There is a place to meet – perhaps not in the middle, but you’ll still be better off for having made the deal.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Without grace, beauty doesn’t breathe; ornamentation doesn’t sparkle. With grace, bad ideas pass for brilliant; the mundane becomes magical. What exactly is grace? Whatever it is, you have it today.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Even though you think it’s obnoxious to draw attention to your work, unless you are seen exemplifying a quality, they will not understand who you are. Don’t do it for ego. Do it for clarity.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You’ll lean toward acts of gallantry, nobility, high character, forgiveness, generosity. This leaning changes the balance, and into magnanimity you’ll topple.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): You’ll be asked to make a judgment, and you really don’t have to. A stance of no stance keeps you in a perfect position. You can say very little, keep the mood light and move on swiftly.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Work absorbs and excites you. You’ll make a difference and have an impact. These are the sorts of efforts that make time speed. You’ll be happy for the puzzles that make everything stop for a minute.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): The uphill climb won’t be safe until after the thaw. But wouldn’t it be silly to wait around? Since that won’t get you there at all, there’s no glory in taking that route. Go easy. Actually, it’s the only open route now.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Right now it’s a little hard to get people to give you what you need, maybe because you’re not entirely clear. Explore the topic. Ask yourself the sharp questions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): To complain always brings someone discredit. There’s a lot to try before it comes to that. Offer a solution if you can. Another way is to praise the way someone else did it and see if others follow suit.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): What you admire in others you can cultivate in yourself. This will eliminate the need for you to carry the kind of heavy energy that comes from wanting things from people. Self-sufficiency is light.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): You have friends in powerful places. Though you rarely ask anything of these connections, it’s a secure feeling to know you could if you needed to. Still, the best security is knowing you have your own back.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Maybe you don’t completely judge a book by its cover, but you do get a pretty good idea about what language it’s written in, what era it comes from and more. Today, you’ll use every hint you can get!
