Horoscopes

Aries (March 21-April 19):

More than one high-priority concern will demand your attention, and you can get to each one before the day is over. Make a list and persist until all items are checked off: It’s important.

Wanting the same thing as your equally matched opposition? This can’t end well, even if you win. Like two atoms seek to occupy the same space, the result is cataclysmic. Do consider wanting something else.

Backing out may not seem like the heroic thing to do, but if it’s the thing that will make your life better, smoother and more peaceful, do it. Remove yourself from the situation; seek sanctuary.

It may seem, from your current vantage, that any place is better than the one in which you stand. It’s not true, but you should move anyway, if only to get into a new position.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Gemini (May 21-June 21): Cancer (June 22-July 22): Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

There’s no chance of the day getting boring. Part of the fun will include snappy banter with an attractive someone. By the way, if you keep this up you could accidentally make someone fall in love with you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

From time to time, even the most exciting people get bored of their own stories and skins. Being around the people who love you dearly will help you see yourself with the adoring eyes that they see you through.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23):

being overwhelmed are

The dangers of just as real as they are unnecessary. You can and will handle everything you need to. Start easy and make a list of the harder things. You’ll deal with those when you’re in a stronger position.

Owning too much makes you feel cumbersome and disorganized. You can upgrade by downsizing. Tonight, if you’re in the mood to experience the mysteriously exciting side of love, it will be there for you.

Sometimes life happens (SET ITAL) to (END ITAL) you, but mostly it happens (SET ITAL) from (END ITAL) you. Even though you’re not always in charge, it’s empowering to see your life as a series of choices.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Turn off your self-censorship for a few hours while you brainstorm about how to improve your personal life. During this time, there are no wrong answers or threatening ideas. Ideas won’t hurt you.

Morale is higher when everyone on the team feels at least somewhat powerful. If it seems someone has too much control while others have none, there will be problems. Seek balance.

Your thoughtfulness, combined with your generous spirit and refusal to deal in pettiness, inspires love to flow through your life in a big way. Someone is getting used to this and will soon be spoiled if you keep it up.
