HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Laughter is contagious. You don’t even have to know what you’re laughing about to get the many benefits of a jolly good time today.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Those with a primitive conscience do not want to do bad things because of what would happen to them. Those with a higher conscience do not want to do bad things because of their effect on others.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Good relationships are not defined by an absence of problems. Good relationships go on regardless of what problems are present.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Life is movement. Engage the movement and you are dancing. Stay rigid and you risk being passed over.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You’re open to seeing things differently. You can understand the story from many sides without losing your own take on it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Lately, you’ve been dealing with a few layers of negativity. Rest assured the condition isn’t chronic.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): The currency of the ego is glamour, money and might. It’s the ability to control others. This is what goes for power, but it’s not real power, as the powerful know.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Beware of people who seem to want more — more of your time, more of your attention, more of your money.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): People around you will feel compelled to give their opinion, whether or not they were asked for it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Anyone with money can show affection through the purchase of gifts or by wining and dining. Be different.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ve been stable and consistent in an endeavor, and now you’ll enjoy the rewards. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): The small print will now be a large part of the deal. The hidden costs will come out of hiding.

Today’s birthday (March 19): Realizing that it’s not enough to push out of your comfort zone just every once in a while, you make a habit of it this year. You’ll become more and more courageous, grow your skill set and become more attractive to all sorts of people. You’ll get your comeuppance in May. Love will be declared in June. November brings a windfall. Leo and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 3, 15, 2 and 38.
