HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): You’ve a sense about what’s possible and how much work it will take. You do it until it’s done.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): A strong teacher makes you want to work hard and considers your success a joint mission.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): In order to fit into the group agenda, you might have to compromise on your approach, plan or product, but you shouldn’t have to compromise who you are.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’ll be invigorated by people working together to accomplish a common goal, especially if the goal has something to do with improving the world through kindness.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Ask yourself the questions that will help you get clear about what you want to accomplish. Then the “how” won’t matter so much.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There’s a pleasant (not outrageous or startling) surprise in this day just for you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): To get fewer problems, focus on just one and solve it. Then move to the next.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Even though you know better than to get “attached to an outcome,” you feel invested. Let go. Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Life doesn’t always fall into a lovely pattern; sometimes it has to be puzzled together into one. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t discount your contribution, even in very large gatherings. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This is an excellent time to look at your expenses and cut the subscriptions and recurring payments that go to things you don’t really use. It will bring your finances and more back into balance. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Even though your reflexes are superior, you’d rather live proactively so that you’re not in a reactive position. Tonight brings a hint that will help with the mystery you’ve been trying to solve.

Today’s birthday (July 28): You keep creating and making things happen, and that’s why this year brings four major celebrations of you. October brings special courage, and you’ll dive into a daring aim — something you wouldn’t have had the guts or skills for in the past. You’ll be ready! This will begin a trajectory you’ll follow through to your next birthday. Pisces and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 30, 29, 44 and 12.
