Horoscopes

Aries (March 21-April 19): There is so much that you don’t need to worry about now, including what value you are adding to today’s situation. The others are way beyond that, and you should get past it, too. Being you is enough. Really! Taurus (April 20-May 20): Doing well will mostly be a function of relaxing and getting out of your own way. The chatter of your thoughts won’t help in this effort. Imagine they have a volume knob, and turn them down. Gemini (May 21-June 21): What you want is best for everyone involved, yet if you make a big deal about it, you’ll most likely be met with resistance. Offer the opposition nothing to resist. Then quietly achieve your aims under the radar. Cancer (June 22-July 22): The ancient oracle cautions that when you boil water over an open flame, there’s a chance that one will extinguish the other. There’s a balance here to respect. Your watchful eye will keep it all in check. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): By now, it’s almost comical how many times you’ve been thwarted from a certain action. You’re starting to wonder whether the Fates are against you! If so, it only means there is something better in store for you. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It’s typical for you to nurture others in need as if you were feeding yourself. These days, you actually care for them better than that. Take a breath and ask who really needs it more. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): With the current zeitgeist possessing so many celebrity showoffs and egos, sometimes it’s difficult to speak colloquially and humbly at the same time. Try. The prize for succeeding is true connection. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): If it’s not working, add more compassion and see what that does. If that doesn’t fix it, go down the list and try the next virtue. Maybe modesty is needed. Maybe patience or frugality. You can fix this through goodness. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Compromise will be better than confrontation in today’s case. The others need to feel listened to. This is, of course, best achieved when they actually (SET ITAL) are (END ITAL) listened to! Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Some would have you believe that life is about sensual experiences, insider knowledge and generally making other people jealous. Ignore them today. The best life is about compassion and connection. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You don’t want to drift into the background, nor do you think that you’re the most interesting person in the room. You just aim to hold your own, and that’s a solid place to stay today. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You are well-matched today, as your partners and opponents (often the same person) will have equal but very different strengths. Winners tip: In the end, this is a mental game.
