Aries (Mar21-Apr.19): Concentrate on tackling one job at a time, as trying to juggle several things at once could be unsustainable. Don’t be afraid to say no to a situation that could bring you unnecessary complications.
Taurus (Apr.20-May20): Trying to use charm to butter someone up into letting you have your way could backfire, so just take the direct approach for the best results. Others will appreciate honesty more than trying to impress them.
Gemini (May21-June20): Nobody can argue with facts. You can hold your own in any subject of discourse if you have irrefutable data to back up what you say. Avoid overthinking important definitions, as your first instinct is likely correct.
Cancer (June21-July22): Your heart may not be in it. Chaotic events going on behind the scenes may make it difficult to come to a decision regarding an unrelated issue. A loved one may feel slighted unless you explain that your mind is somewhere else.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t be so hard on yourself. Doubt and a lack of confidence could stall your progress toward a particular goal, but stay determined to succeed and you’ll get what you want. One mistake does not mean that you are destined to fail.
Virgo (Aug.23-Sept.22): Your brain needs exercise too. Give the most vital organ in your body a workout by crunching numbers, tackling a difficult puzzle, or engaging in a philosophical debate. Only purchase items that are essential.
Libra (Sept.23-Oct.22.): What you think will please a friend or loved one may only serve to aggravate them so talk things over before taking a course of action. Unforeseen events are likely to make taking a gamble a fool’s bet.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your financial situation may not be ideal but you risk making things worse if you try to shake things up right now. Take advice with a grain of salt, as someone may just be telling you what you want to hear.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sleep on it. What seems like something you simply must have today may lose its luster by tomorrow, so hold off on taking any action. Find a challenging project that can keep your mind sharp and provide a satisfying outlet.
Capricorn (Dec.22-Jan.19): Be all business. Now is not the time for gossip or juicy stories, as those around you are focused on matters of grave importance. Stick to essential subjects and conversations that will help make progress towards common goals.
Aquarius( Jan .20- Feb .18): Everything is not just a matter of black or white. Shades of gray abound as someone may be purposely tampering with the truth to achieve their own agenda. Be skeptical of gossip and look only to trusted sources for the facts.
Pisces( Feb .19- Mar .20): Objectives may not be in sync. You may be at odds with a loved one over what takes priority, so it may be best just to do your own thing for now. Don’t try and read between the lines of a conversation as you could be wrong.
if December 28 is your birthday: Your voice will be heard when you are part of the herd, as the coming two to three weeks unfold. Social activities offer you the perfect venue to display your best qualities or to enjoy your creative interests. Relax while you can because your schedule may be extremely full in February. You may strive to make your schedule a well-oiled machine and can use enhanced managerial skills to put everything in its place. Late March is a time when you could be inspired by someone or something, so jot down notes to use in the future. You might enjoy a stay-cation or a vacation, as long as you have a chance to escape routines. Your judgment is a bit off base in May and June, so wait until July to make key decisions that affect your career or finances.
