HOROSCOPES PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Novelty is an actual human need and there’s physiological evidence for this. Ask new questions and make new demands of your routine in the name of seeing it fresh again.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Hope has a much better memory than gratitude. In other words, people who want something from you give a more intense quality of attention than people who already get something from you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

At first the job seemed overwhelmingly cumbersome, and now it’s just a pain. That’s OK. Like a bodybuilder, you get stronger by handling this burden repeatedly. Soon it will be like a feather, and you’ll have amazing “muscles.”

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

There’s a mystery you need to root out, and it’s a layered one at that. How do you get to the bottom of it? By recognizing when you’re not there yet and digging a little deeper.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

You’ll do a thing until it loses its appeal and not a moment longer. It’s not because you’re fickle, rather it’s that time is precious and some practices get old faster than others.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

When you interact with people, you try to give them something useful. The trouble is that you don’t always know what’s useful to other people. Today, just your being there will be useful enough.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

To live the exciting life of your fantasies, you’ll need to erect and enforce certain boundaries. Cultivating your dreams will take time -- time that you won’t have unless you fiercely protect it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Discipline leads to freedom and freedom may create the need, or the longing, for discipline. Whichever part of the cycle you’re in right now, accept it and move toward your desire.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You develop in your personality and in your calling on a daily basis, sometimes in teensy increments and other times in leaps. You’re still adjusting to this last leap. Give yourself some time to get used to things.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

There are those who will root for you to be your best -- as long as it doesn’t surpass theirs. A relationship of this type will have a short shelf life, as ultimately you’ll have to cross a threshold.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

If you’re going to work on self-discipline, don’t do it for a boss, partner or for the good of anyone other than yourself. And know that this is noble work. There is no higher dominion than the dominion over your own impulses.

People are like the wind; they carry the good and bad qualities of the strata through which they flow. There’s something about the climate you will want to rise above, so you seek purification.
