Prepare for You may feel tremendous energy and confidence, yet some uncertainty at what direction you really want to be going. Your astrology describes a scenario where you’ll need to rely on your intuition. Yet the more honest with yourself you are, the more effectively you will orient yourself. Acknowledge what you know; use what you know; never pretend not to know. You share a birthday with Bernie Sanders, Ruby Bridges and Pink. MARCH 21-APRIL 19 You will need to attend to the details without getting lost in them. The thing to get lost in is your own experience of making something for its own sake, for yours, or to serve a special purpose. Infuse your work with meaning that comes from your blood and your bones. APRIL 20-MAY 20 You’re close to solving the riddle of self-confidence. One time-honored method of getting there is by being honest with yourself about what you know, how you feel and who you are. This isn’t the stretch that it may seem in your imagination. You don’t have to do anything except admit what is so. MAY 21-JUNE 20 If you’ve ever wanted to be completely transparent with someone special or with the whole world, your solar chart describes a rare opening to do so. What you may intuitively sense and yet somehow doubt is the delicate pleasure of revealing yourself. You’ve discovered before that vulnerability is amazing. JUNE 21-JULY 22 You may be wondering how it’s possible that things are going so well, though really, your attitude toward life is the key to your success. Optimism is not a weakness. It’s the willingness to envision and work toward the outcome best for you and those you care about the most. JULY 23-AUG. 22 If you relax, particularly about money, you will attract all kinds of good things into your life. Abundance comes in many forms; financial wealth is just one of them, and while it can buy many things, happiness is not one of them. Respect, appreciation and love will light your way. AUG. 23-SEPT. 22 It’s been a turbulent few weeks, though you’re starting to get a grip. Mostly you’ve discovered there’s no point pretending that what you know is true is somehow false. Now you seem to be in hot pursuit of inner discovery, which is a great way to remind yourself you’re really alive. SEPT. 23-OCT. 22 It’s worth asking yourself how much of what you perceive in others is really projection — that is, your ideas about yourself, applied to them. This is true whether they’re friendly thoughts or not, though pay special attention to the darker shades. Listen to yourself, and observe what you want to change. OCT. 23-NOV. 21 There’s been unusual activity in the career angle of your solar chart these days, and it’s gradually working itself out. You still need to be cautious, particularly where it comes to offering too much information, particularly in your professional life. You can be a little more reticent to speak. NOV. 22-DEC. 21 This will be a productive weekend with the beneficial effects carrying over into next week. The key to tapping this energy is to apply yourself gently, persistently and over time. Don’t try to get it all done at once, nor be daunted by the territory you must cover. Just stick with your task. DEC. 22-JAN. 19 Luck is on your side, though only if you think so. Keep a positive outlook, and keep your eyes and ears open for those who are presenting an occasion to help or opportunity to get involved. Big breaks often come in small ways, such as any chance to establish yourself with someone. JAN. 20-FEB. 18 If you’re one those Aquarians who is laid back about money and who throws the bills in a shoe box and forgets about them till the reminder comes in, you might want to tidy up your paperwork. Stay current on your accounts and keep your desk in order. It will save you hassles. FEB. 19-MARCH 20 Relationships are the source of nonstop drama in most people’s lives, particularly those born under the romantic, sensitive sign of the fishes. Yet this in itself does not bring fulfillment, and you might ask what’s the source of all the intrigue. It’s mostly about what you don’t say.
