Horoscopes

ARIES

As the first week of spring unfolds, your fancies may turn to thoughts of love. You might be inspired by the first daffodil peeking out of the ground or wallow in a mire of unrealistic ideas. Avoid conversational mix-ups.

Plotting and planning might be on your mind in the week ahead. Harness your vivid imagination and put it to the test. You may be energized to make money, but could just as easily find ways to spend it.

Fuzzy thinking is not the same as fuzzy logic. In the week ahead be sure to communicate clearly and avoid becoming bogged down in details. Your physical energy levels are high, so tackle odd jobs.

Too many friends can spoil the broth. You can never have too many wellwishers in your corner, but your time might be eaten up by texting and email messages in the week to come. Avoid extravagant purchases.

“The more, the merrier” is fine until you want some rest. In the week to come your contact with numerous people might help you realize how necessary it is to have a special someone as the center of your life.

Keep your money in your pocket. You may be attracted to something or someone that is not worthy of your attention as this week unfolds. Focus on learning how to perform physical tasks or pursue constructive ideas.

You are never too old to learn new tricks. You could join a group that shares your interests or widens your scope. There may be a few times in the week ahead when you think the truth has been stretched too far. During the week to come it might seem that the more money you make, the more you must spend. Your participation in group activities might cost more than you expect. Find ways to apply wisdom to your finances.

You might end up running in circles as this week unfolds. Put a puzzling problem on the back burner and concentrate on getting caught up with a backlog of essential tasks around the home and office.

Don’t pretend to be someone you aren’t. You might think you can get away with hiding your past or your faults, but it will seem silly in hindsight. In the week ahead ask friends to help you achieve your goals.

You may feel it necessary to defend yourself from unwarranted criticism concerning the way you handle your possessions or bank account. You may be challenged in the week ahead to handle a tight schedule.

Win the wrestling match with your conscience. Someone might be more successful than you, but that does not diminish your innate gifts. Brief feelings of inadequacy may undermine your confidence this week. Your quest for financial security could be enhanced in the coming two weeks. This is a good time to re-evaluate your investments and financial future. Inspirational discussions and group interactions could be topics that spark your interest in April. You should write down your ideas and put them to good use when the time is ripe. By September your attention could shift, as it becomes more important to use your street smarts and business sense. If you need to change jobs or ask for a raise that might be the best time, as your professional demeanor will impress everyone you meet. Take pride in your good fortune and enjoy the respect of other members of your community in late September and early October.
