HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Once you figure out that you’re not going to get what you need or want from the situation, move on.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): There’s a lot of futility in mental exercises such as weighing the options and delving into the history. Skip it. The only way to make things happen is to act.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Communication is like music; it’s as much about the spaces as it is about the words. Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’re focused on getting through your work, which happens to also be a lot of fun for you today.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): With the current state of Mercury, it’s hard to avoid taking information out of context or reading too much into things, but do try.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your experience has taught you quite a lot about what to expect from situations like the one you face today. And yet, this one is slightly different. Reserve your judgments for later.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ll be focused on developing your skills. This is a better way to spend your time than trying to make something happen that is clearly not working.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Your lifestyle is not for the faint of heart. It takes strength to handle responsibilities and deal with the needs of those around you. You will rise to the occasion.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): As long as people respect one another and don’t invest too much identity in being right, it will all work out today.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Tell people what you like about them. Mutual admiration can get a friendship started.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll pinpoint the culprit keeping you from being organized. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): If you detach and get into a breezier frame of mind, you’ll soon get your mojo back.

Today’s birthday (April 22): The obstacle in your path is completely surmountable, which you’ll prove in the next four weeks. Friends help you move up, over and on. In May, romantic notions become romantic actions. Bank your winnings in July; you’ll need the savings for what you want to build in October. Aquarius and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 38, 10, 13, 27 and 19.
