A thorough approach to whatever you do will pay off this year. Dedication, loyalty, compassion and common sense will take you to a place that offers peace of mind. Choose honor and integrity over risk.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Do something physical that will ease stress, keep you from saying something you shouldn’t and encourage you to do your own thing. Stick to a budget and have fun. TAURUS (April 20-May 20):

Consistency will lead to success. You’ll gain ground if you are persistent and willing to do the work yourself. Don’t put things off due to temptation or interference.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Bide your time. Spontaneity and haste will take you in the wrong direction. Work alone to avoid interference. Ask experts questions, but trust in yourself to make decisions.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Avoid controlling situations. Speak on your behalf to ensure you get both your point across and recognition for your thoughts.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take care of financial, legal or health matters swiftly. You’ll learn something that helps you cut corners and save time and money. Don’t let a decision someone makes ruin your plans.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Adjust and carry on as planned. Use your knowledge, skills and experience in unique ways to get ahead or to help others. Turn a joint venture into a social event.

Temptation to get involved in endeavors that sound too good to be true will engross you. Step back and rethink what’s best for you before you commit to something debatable. Pay attention. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Sharing will backfire on you. Do your thing and pay your way. Set high standards and take the initiative to add unique touches that will be noticed and admired. Taking on someone else’s fight will be costly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Remain consistent to avoid backlash. Too many changes will make people question what you are doing. Designate how much you want to spend and on what.
