HOROSCOPES

Aries (March 21-April 19): Talking to your friends can get you excited for an opportunity that you’re currently considering. You’ll have to use this technique wisely though, because once people are egging you on to move forward with a course of action you’ve proposed, it’ll be hard to back down.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

Your sensitivity to any present hidden dynamics can help you plot the best path forward. Judiciously sharing your insights with someone in a position of power has the potential to be a relief for everyone involved. They may appreciate the opportunity to speak more frankly.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

Socializing widely can be especially rewarding now. Striking up a conversation with a stranger who seems interesting is a risk worth taking. You never know when the two of you will have something in common. Consider letting your discussion wander a little deeper.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Bringing difficult issues into the light is possible today. Although you might crave privacy for sorting out heavy stuff, letting others know what you’re up to will potentially get you the help you need to finish the job. You might even consider fresh career directions related to the skills you’ve developed.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): A dose of adventure should keep your friendships feeling fresh at present. You’re not likely to be content sticking to the same old routines. Convincing your usual posse to do something different with you can highlight new sides of people you’ve known for a long time.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Your work ethic is on point today, but there’s more to success than keeping your nose to the grindstone. Look at building alliances that can help you reach your goals faster. Involving another person means you lose some control. Go in with an idea of what you’re willing to bend on.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Having fun together can rejuvenate a deep relationship now. Choosing an activity that you both find stimulating could keep you from descending into bored bickering. You might have started taking each other for granted, so reconnect with your shared sense of meaning.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

You’re probably willing to work hard today — as long as you can see how your effort benefits the people you care about. You can efficiently move from noticing changes that would make the lives of your family members easier to making those shifts happen. So keep your goals realistic.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Sharing a personal story can enhance a close relationship. Go beyond the mere facts to get at why it made a difference in your life. Have an idea of what you want the other person to do with this information, but accept the possibility that they might take it in another direction.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

You’re equipped to notice what feels good and what doesn’t. The next step is deciding what to do about it. There’s probably action you could take on your own to deal with a long-standing frustration. If you’re in over your head, spending money to have help might be worthwhile.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

You might want to wow the people around you with your brilliant intellect today, but they may ultimately be more impressed by your vulnerable human side. It doesn’t have to be all one or the other. Emotional motivations can hold listeners’ attention through tougher details.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

Following your emotions could lead you to the root of any recent money issues you’re facing. You can uncover the hidden logic in choices that seem to not serve you well. Perhaps holding yourself back from advances that are within your reach feels like a way to stay connected to family members you value.
