Horoscopes

Aries (March 21-April 19): Observation is your cosmic gift of the day. No one will accuse you of missing the forest for the trees. You’ll see the trees, the forest, the continent, the curve of the planet... Taurus (April 20-May 20): How far should you take an idea? Should you put your money behind it? Test the concept first. See what you can do without investing much. If it’s a good idea, you’ll get a sign. Gemini (May 21-June 21): All subtlety will be lost, and you’re not in that kind of mood anyway. Use your loud, clear voice; write in big letters. You’ll be dealing with people who can take anything you have to give, so give is straight. Cancer (June 22-July 22): Like an athlete building toward being

a contender, you’ll dedicate yourself to consistent, daily work. You’ll sweat through the discomfort, through the inconvenience, through whatever mood descends. This is what it takes.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): When facts come to light or memories resurface, there’s a reason. Don’t discount anything. If you don’t know the purpose, make a detective note of what happened. It might help you later. This is all part of the case. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You love your people, but you don’t always want to talk to them. You need time to yourself. If you don’t get enough alone time you’ll feel resentful of those who “stole” it from you. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23):

An extroverted introvert is a person

who is proactively outgoing to avoid being rude though they prefer plenty of time to themselves to recharge and enjoy the hours however they please. Can you relate? Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): The pile of paperwork needs your attention. Same with a pile of emotions. There’s nothing too awful in either pile, so reach in and deal with it one item at a time. In a few concentrated hours you’ll be free. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): When you know it’s for you, you really know. You dive right in. You commit yourself without an ounce of regret or reservation. Your confidence will attract friends and followers. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Oddly enough, knowing what needs doing is more important than doing it today. You’re wise not to start on anything without a plan. It may take several hours to plot out the journey ahead, and this will be time well spent.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Empathy has no words. It’s receptive. It holds open an emotional catcher’s mitt. It receives with eyes of kindness, an encouraging face and open body language.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ve been the frequent recipient of spontaneous kindness, and now you’ll be paying it forward. It feels good to be the mastermind of someone else’s kismet. You might even prefer to do this anonymously.
