Horoscopes
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Doing one thing well will be satisfying, whereas splitting attention between many tasks will feel entirely unproductive. Tonight highlights your optimism, which is as good for your health as it is for your social life.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Since people value things that they put effort into, you’re better off asking for help and contribution than you would be serving up everything yourself. Tonight, be the strong leader with a vision.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Identities evolve, and you like knowing that you can change when you want to. Just because the evolution is uncomfortable doesn’t mean it’s not going well.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). At some level, everyone who lives among people is involved in politics. You’ll do a diplomatic balancing act today as you navigate between those who might have trouble getting along without the comfortable buffer you provide.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your opinion is valued. Others will want to know how you think and feel. You’ll be asked to vote, take a survey or otherwise weigh in. If you’re not sure, resist pressure to commit. Gather more information instead.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Good fortune comes in many forms. Sometimes it’s the luck of the draw, and other times it’s the luck of elbow grease and sweat -- or, in today’s case, the luck of striking up a conversation.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A degree of flexibility is required for relationships to have staying power. Just as friendships built in fair weather are tested by the storms of life, bonds that were built in difficult times will be tested when the good times roll.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is rarer to be wise than it is to be smart. Intelligent people do dumb things all the time. But wisdom disallows a person a purposeless focus. You may be among the wise minority now as you focus on what’s truly important.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The basic needs of life are often taken for granted. Not by you. Your life is good because you don’t wait for a loss to appreciate the miracle of such things as breath, water, food and a safe place to enjoy them.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The person who likes and dislikes all the same things as you is not your soulmate. Beware of imitators who copy you out of deference. You’re better off experiencing differences than redundancy.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Serenity is a simple matter of letting go of the picture in your mind and taking in the one before your eyes. Take the pressure off with a simple song: “Whatever will be will be.”
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To the untrained eye, you’re simply having a good time. But in reality, you’re working the room. You’ll be admired for talents of practicality and problemsolving, as well as for your strategy in business or games.
