HOROSCOPES

Aries (March 21-April 19):

Old embarrassments may sneak back into your mind. Criticism can be constructive, but complaints regarding things you can’t change are unnecessary. It might be time to set down this past perception. After all, it was someone else’s viewpoint, and you don’t have to let it harry you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

Your friends could be able to help you through a difficult time. Worrying may be an issue for you, which can make it understandably hard to focus. However, reaching out to your friends is a good way to distract yourself. Listening to their stories, as well as maybe venting, can help you feel a bit lighter.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

You might find yourself standing alone. There’s a tendency for you to spiral into negativity, so try to be aware of how you’re coming across to others. Others could be baiting you as well, so avoid playing into any negative influence. Having emotions makes you human.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Struggles with your responsibilities can occur without warning. On top of this, you could also be more prone to being taken advantage of. Be wary of people trying to manipulate you, and don’t hesitate to stand up to people who try to get you to do their work for them.

A friend may need you today. You might find yourself counseling someone and acting as a shoulder to cry on. However, they might not be able to respond in kind. Consider looking for someone who you can share or express yourself with on your own through artistic means.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Passion for productivity doesn’t mean it’ll be easy to get along with others in the process. They might be less willing to help you than normal, and you may find that they’re downright dismissive. With a lack of help or delays, you could be working slowly. Be patient. It should be worth the effort.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

A situation similar to one from your past could be around the corner. You might feel at odds with a loved one, and anxiety could be urging you to run away instead of working together to solve your issue. Being right probably isn’t worth throwing away the entire relationship.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Struggles can be healed through empathy. Someone may be especially angry, and it could be a person you don’t get along with. Despite your shared history, allowing them to vent might help the tension dissipate. You could find that you’re able to connect with them.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

You may be more dependent on others than usual. A best friend or close partner might seem like the best person to spend all your time with. Even if that’s temporarily fun, the hours may begin to drag on sooner rather than later. Distance can actually make the heart grow fonder.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

An opportunity to express yourself could take you off guard today, leading to some hesitation. No matter how much you’d like to showcase your creative side, the fear of disappointing your family can still weigh you down. It’s your life, and you should be able to do what makes you happy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

You might be scared of saying the wrong thing. You may be holding back to avoid stepping on others’ toes. While it is good to keep the peace, it’s not healthy to repress your emotions. You’ll never know if others secretly feel the same way if you don’t say anything.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

Childhood memories could come up at any moment. Allowing yourself to contemplate these recollections can be healing for your inner child. Other’s differing experiences could leave you concerned that you don’t belong. Don’t give in to these fears.
