Your Stars
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Gratitude is like stretching. It’s preparation for the vigour ahead, warding off injury. People don’t do gratitude for the same reason people don’t stretch. It’s so easy they forget. Don’t let that be you.
TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Many material things bring more torment than delight, as the maintenance, cartage, storage and display of these things, coupled with the fear of losing them, can be more acute than any joy of ownership.
GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Among other things, love has been compared to fever, dreaming and anaesthesia. Certainly, that’s one version – and a very pleasant, though temporary, one at that. So enjoy!
CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): Avoiding sadness today is like standing in the ocean to avoid wetness. Sadness (like joy, excitement, frustration, trepidation...) is part of the experience of the day. It will quickly wash over you.
LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): The question is not whether you’re better off than you were. That thought has the potential to meander high and low but ultimately will lead into a wall. The thought you want begins with “What now?”
VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): You’re not afraid of responsibility, and when you commit yourself, you go all in. Somehow, making up your mind to do a thing reduces your fear. It’s like each action you choose comes with a side order of courage.
LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): You’ll find it interesting when people you’ve known for a long time have a different recollection than you do about your shared history. Perhaps both versions are equally valid.
SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Sometimes you wonder whether you should go to the expense of buying event tickets when the best part of going out is the anticipation, and that’s free. Put something new on the books.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): The ennui is not relievable by purchase. The retail rush lasts somewhere between 15 minutes and two hours, and then the ennui settles back in. It will take a big project to send ennui running.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Everything looks original if you’ve never seen it before. Put your work in front of fresh eyes of all ages to get a different perspective. The feedback will help you hone in on a more lucrative direction.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): You’re so respectful and appreciative of even the most accessible joys because you know that sometimes a lot more work goes into presenting them than most people would guess.
PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Modesty isn’t always about what you say; it’s often the avoidance of being spotlighted at all. A low profile will keep you in the good graces of humility.
