Horoscopes

Aries (March 21-April 19): If a goal does not have an end date and a time frame to pin things on along the way, it’s not really a goal. It’s better to have one aim that’s set to the music of time than 10 aims that are not.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): There’s the role you’re in and the role you’ll be in eventually. Think about and manage both simultaneously. This process of becoming will be seamless as you project yourself into the future of your making.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): There will be an opportunity for a possibly uncomfortable, possibly liberating bit of honesty. Weigh this carefully. You can shear a sheep many times, but you can only skin it once. Cancer (June 22-July 22): The third act: That’s the one that’s supposed to tie it all together and make sense of it. Well, it doesn’t always happen so neatly, and that is what’s going on today — a fun little mess that will all work out in the end.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You’re still unsure about how much to share in a relationship. If you keep it cordial and only talk about socially acceptable topics, you run the risk of being boring and also sadly unexpressed. You can afford to go deeper.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You don’t have to travel far for your happiness today; nor do you need to look beyond your immediate environs for answers. Your best guess is as good as anyone’s. Trust yourself, and use what you got.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Just as the oceans can’t help but follow their master, the moon, people have their own natural attractions. To resist them is a futile waste of energy. How can you make your proclivities work for you?

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Kindness and acceptance are not only qualities that get you through life with a fair amount of grace; for you they are also deeply engrained daily habits. Expect no less from those in your inner circle.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): One way to make life better is to find satisfaction before fullness in all things. Get what you need and a little more, but don’t allow yourself to have all that you can fit. Leave room. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Do talk of your achievements so others get a fuller picture of what you’re about. A brief mention is all it takes. More than that and you’ll seem insecure.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Keep working to establish habits. Cyclical forces will pull you along. It may not feel like you’re doing too much, but these small daily efforts are important. They mean more than you think, and they’ll change more, too.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): What is needed to polish your jewels to brilliance? Friction. This requires some muscle from you and maybe some technique, too. But without the uncomfortable rub, life will lack luster. Without friction there is no shine.
