Horoscopes

Aries (March 21-April 19): Maybe you’re tired of the way things are and the situation is causing you pain. Or maybe you’re inspired by a glittering example of who you want to be. Either way, you’re determined to create something different.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Alas, love is not always, as the classic song suggests, a “many-splendored thing.” Although, with the Venus change, you’ll get a new perspective on whatever bothers you about it, and things will start to shift.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): There’s high value in lighthearted relationships. When your spirit feels heavy and the weather inside your head goes gray, people who are easy to be around are like a breeze blowing away the clouds.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): There will always be a question to answer, a mess to clean up, a broken thing to fix. However, these do not always fall under your jurisdiction. Involvement is optional. It’s about time you practiced the art of doing nothing at all.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): In order to see the world how it is, you must be able to lift the lenses you’re looking through and take off the filters and rules you’ve superimposed. Don’t worry; you can put your own reality glasses back on after you’re done.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Thinking of others is akin to running a street-cleaning vehicle through the avenues of your mind. It brushes your synapses clean and makes all the rest of your thinking flow better.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You want to take part in a scene; you don’t want to take it over. This is the message you need to convey subtly, not with talk but with your tone and, of course, your actions. Once they understand you, all will relax.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): There’s a paradox in wanting, as want motivates you while also limiting you. Desire enslaves. Maybe you can’t reason your way out of wanting, but you can and should question why.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Unsure where another person stands, you may be tempted to send mixed messages in an attempt to see what resonates. This takes too long. Risk rejection. Ask a direct question. Dispense with the cloudy and opt for the clear.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Symmetry is satisfying not just in aesthetics but in all things. Put money in; get the same value out. Talk as much as you listen, etc. Today’s symmetrical features may not be immediately detectable. Wait for it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): To moralize things like food or spending opens a whole bag of complicated psychology you don’t need right now. No one is “bad” for eating a cookie or “good” for saving a buck. Explore new mindsets and styles of self-talk.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Maybe there are no magic bullets or miracle lifehacks, but looking for them and trying new things will be a great deal of fun anyway, especially when your expectations are realistic.
