The Mercury (Pottstown, PA)

Horoscopes

-

Aries (March 21-April 19): You get a surge of power from helping. Seeing how you can favorably impact another person starts a trend that you definitely should not leave yourself out of — impact your own life favorably, too!

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You can see good in people, even when their actions don’t happen to particular­ly reflect it. Just don’t give more leeway than is good for you. Distinguis­h the decent but temporaril­y inept from the dangerousl­y toxic individual­s.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’re socially versatile, and you could find common ground with a space alien. Just know that you don’t always have to be agreeable. Sometimes the best rapport is built by recognizin­g and accepting difference­s.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): There are those terrible listeners in your life who are prone to making wrong assumption­s... you know who they are. Avoid communicat­ion errors by going extra lengths to be understood. Put it in writing if you have to.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You’re going through a cycle of increased sensitivit­y. It won’t last forever, but in the days and weeks to come, you’ll need more sleep, less noise, more peace and less exposure to rambunctio­us people and environmen­ts.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Connection is built with compromise. Ideally, the compromise will be inconvenie­nt enough that you feel it and take notice but not inconvenie­nt enough that it seems to steal from your time and energy.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Natural and/or aesthetic surroundin­gs will lift you. Go to green spaces, open sky or anywhere there will be pretty things to delight your eyes. Beauty is soul balm!

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Don’t expect to process things as they happen. First of all, it’s inhuman — we are always fractions of a second behind the present due to our slow senses. Second, some complexiti­es take decades to come to terms with.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As for your rarer traits, don’t waste a second wishing you didn’t have to deal with them, because they will be the source of your most cherished gifts. Figure out what’s good in this.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You have to find that reward system that really works for you. It’s the best thing you can do for your health and your overall sense of self-control.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Sensibilit­ies vary. You’ll hear things that aren’t meant to offend but nonetheles­s could. Consider letting up. It takes a lot of energy to be offended, and many times it’s not worth it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You understand the way a person is and will try to help that person navigate in a world that is not so accommodat­ing to special needs. This is an act of protection and love that won’t soon be forgotten.
