HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): It’s really not what you do but the quality of relaxation you bring to it that puts it in the category of enjoyment — or work.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): The great people have failed greatly. Failure is the best teacher, though a reviled one. Is that really fair? Befriend it instead.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’re curious about what will happen if you hang a temptation in the air, and you’ll find out.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): The confident move is to let people take as much space as they need without interjecting your own feelings on the matter.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Wrong choices can lead to right choices for those committed to learning from them. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): This is not going to unfold in the way you expect, but it will unfold in the way it’s supposed to.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): There are many ways to expand your creative potential, but the one that will most appeal is the same one you employed so often as a child: copying the older kids as you played.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): A conversation is only as strong as its most sensitive topic. And a relationship is only as strong as its most vulnerable aspects.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Because learning comes with its own payoff, it can be seductive to stay in the education bubble. Step out and apply it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Over time, intellectual beauty may grow as quickly as physical beauty fades.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’d rather solve your own problem than appear needy. But let people help.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Plato suggested to his young student, “Time will change and even reverse many of your present opinions” — a fine reason to steer clear of the big topics. The same will apply to you today. Today’s birthday

(March 3): This year you’ll have the sort of people in your life who will grow and change right along with you, celebrating all of your incarnations — what an astounding treasure! Also, it will get easier and easier to see and take the steps leading to your own happiness — simple, yes, but people are generally not so good at this. Libra and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 27, 6, 10 and 22.
