ARIES

There are dynamics at play that raise the stakes for interactio­ns. Do a practice run in the mirror, in your head, on paper... whatever it takes to work it out and get you ready and confident for the real thing.

TAURUS

Pick a target you can stick with then aim and shoot. Success does not depend on getting it right the first time (or ever, actually). Success depends on repeated efforts toward the same goal.

GEMINI

You’re a different person than you were last week. When you revisit work you did then, you can see the problems. It’s why you should put today’s results in a drawer and come back to it a week from now.

CANCER

Your friends want to let loose, and prefer your brand of fun. But, just because they call on you doesn’t mean your own agenda becomes less important. Keep original plans, even if they involve only you.

LEO

You know what it feels like to be afraid, or too proud, to go with the flow, and this isn’t that. The flow is wrong. Resistance may be futile, but it’s your only option. What matters most is doing the right thing.

VIRGO

Pay attention to how you use that powerful tool called your voice. Also, there’s much to learn in the voices of others (though much of it is animal-level informatio­n that can’t be put into words.)

LIBRA

You see incuriousn­ess as a fault, as it signals selfcenter­edness and intellectu­al stunting. Today brings an occasion in which you’ll be happy not to bothered by curious minds poking around in your direction.

SCORPIO

The importance of your position makes you the object of attention you shouldn’t take personally. Recognise that it’s the nature of the position and not your own nature that engenders certain scenarios.

SAGITTARIU­S

There is no objective way to prove the value of today’s interactio­n. It’s all what you make of it. Even if it doesn’t lead to the outcome you were going for, you could be better off for the miss.

CAPRICORN

People who are contributi­ng to something often show up differentl­y than people who are asking for something. That’s a gap that the smoothest operators close. Show up the same either way.

AQUARIUS

You have been known to take part in such antics as presenting a cheerful mood for no reason and supporting small achievemen­ts with high enthusiasm. Today will be a case in point.

PISCES

Squabbling children cry “no fair,” believing in a just world. Adults cry “no fair,” knowing that justice is human construct that has to be conceived, fought for and enforced. Justice is rare but worth the fight.
