HOROSCOPES

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Life is pretty simple when you think of it in simple terms, which you very much will do today. You will do what you need to do to attract what you most desire. TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): The ones who are lying around and having a good ol’ time are either doing it very right or very wrong, and you’ll likely have a strong opinion about that today. GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): The way people treat one another when they are in public compared with in private will be two different things. The discrepancy is one to ponder or, if applicable, remedy.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You’ll find yourself mentally weaving an alternate version of things. Not all fantasy is escape. Sometimes it’s a creative way of understanding reality.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): The guitarist can’t play with silk gloves on. Friction is what vibrates those strings. Don’t be afraid to dig into life with your nails. This day is waiting for you to give it a rhythm and sound.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Study past successes and failures for the keys to victory. To skip the research phase of a project is to waste time, as there is no use in repeating what didn’t work before.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): You were not born with a serene air of confidence, rather the aura is well-earned through the planning and preparation you do long before the moment of truth is upon you. SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): When you are doing it your way, unselfconsciously and unapologetically yourself, you have no competition. No one can be you better than you can be you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): There will be a certain amount of peacocking involved in the discourse of the day, pretty feathers fanned out to impress, enlarging the perception of the bird without upsizing the bird itself. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): People become associated with that of which they speak. You are drawn to intriguing facts, stories of warmth and kindness and descriptions of beauty. No wonder people feel elevated around you. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): You’ll fiercely agree with what is happening around you one minute; then fiercely disagree the next. There is no predicting what will bring the turnaround.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): You’ll absorb some enthusiasm as you find yourself with bright, curious and passionate people. What you may not realise is how much you are rubbing off on them, too, in a very positive way.
