A sense of camaraderi­e fills your day, but you owe it to yourself to be in a healthy place before you jump into your plans.

Taurus (April 20-May20):

Gemini (May21-June 20):

Your career is coming into focus, but your mind is scattered. An opportunit­y for advancemen­t is soon to arrive, but if you’re not in the right frame of mind, you could miss it. The opportunit­ies you’ve been hoping for may not fit into your life until you change or improve your skill set.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

Advice and opposition are arriving hand in hand, but it can be hard to tell the difference between who means you well and who means you harm. Keep your big plans to yourself for now, as jealous enemies can throw you off track. Knowing when not to show your hand is an asset.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

You could be thrown by someone else’s elusive actions, so you’ll need to cultivate inner peace. Someone is evading your messages, and the confirmati­on you need to move forward is nowhere to be found. Don’t let impatience get the best of you; there’s only so much you can control on your own.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

There’s likely a project that you’re working on tirelessly, and you’re committed to making everything run smoothly. A last-second change of schedule or an unreliable helper may throw a wrench into your best plans. Be flexible and graceful, and you will deliver a satisfying result.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

A new, exciting person recently entered your life, but you will have to fit them in alongside your loved ones. Beware not to go overboard in spending time with one person.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Eyes are on you today. People are paying attention to see how you respond to an opportunit­y or new load of responsibi­lities, and it’s likely something unfamiliar to you. Be honest with what you can provide, and don’t promise more than you can deliver, because it will overwhelm you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You could awkwardly run into an old companion around town today. Perhaps there is something that you’ve always wanted to say to them or a burning question you’ve been waiting to ask. It’s OKto be honest and say what’s in your heart to find the peace that you’re looking for.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Newfound optimism and financial improvemen­ts are boosting your position in life, but self-sabotage and emotional turbulence may threaten this feeling of security. Make an effort to commit to yourself. The fear of failure is self-fulfilling if it keeps you from your end goal.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

I have been craving a crusty, creamy pot pie but frankly was too lethargic to prepare the many steps of this classic American recipe. When I couldn’t find a restaurant serving it for carryout, I decided to streamline the stages of an older recipe.

I happened to have a cooked turkey breast in my fridge and puff pastry in my freezer. From there, it was just figuring out how to skip unnecessar­y steps from my earlier recipe. You’ll find you need an ovenproof deep skillet or frying pan and a medium bowl. That’s all. If you want to make this recipe truly simple, chop up the poultry and vegetables before you start.

A friend of mine always adds sherry to her recipe so I tried it. I loved the extra depth of flavor the sherry adds. I only had 4-inch squares of frozen

puff pastry, so I cut them into different shapes and placed them on the filling strategica­lly. That way the bubbly filling could peek out for a rustic touch. Parmesan cheese adds a cheesy, golden crust.
