Your Stars

2019-03-14 -

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Some degree of work always goes into presenting oneself in society. You can make that work easier for yourself in the days to come by taking the time to envision what you need and planning ahead.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Stay passive and people will believe what they want to or what’s convenient. The other way is to actively present your belief in an attractive light, and then stand back and see if there are takers.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): The light at the end of the tunnel is the same light everywhere, but it has different significance to people. The people in the tunnel are possibly the only ones who fully appreciate what it means.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You’ll return to a tenant of your upbringing that you’d long since abandoned as impractical, inconvenient and untrue. Why now? You’ll suddenly see a different sort of sense in it.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Fixing the small thing might just teach you that bigger things are the problem. The framework itself may be flawed. It could be the institution that’s broken. Even so, don’t get discouraged. Tend to what you can.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Things that enhance your perspective include annual appointments and seeing someone you haven’t seen in a long while. Stretches of time inform us in ways that day-to-day familiarity cannot.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): It’s like you’re in a movie and all the other characters, the action and the plot twists are there to help you grow your way into your victory sequence. Just trust that this is going to be good.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): “Te absolvo” is the universal message, if you want to take it. There are reasons some won’t. They like ruminating. They need to feel bad, or maybe it’s just a habit. If you’re ready to move on, you can.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Even though it’s wonderful to be liked, appreciated and referred, it’s not as empowering as seeking your own opportunities based on where you’d like to go and who you’d like to know.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Your renewed sense of purpose will be like a hovering halo – not one that indicates your angelic status so much as one that distinguishes you as possibly being able to, in one way or another, fly.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Reminder: You’re much more than your role, your body, or anything you own. You’re more than any story you star in or result you produce. Honour that timeless, eternal part of you.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): To you, attracting unwanted attention is worse than passing for invisible. Anyway, low-key is your ticket today. There’s something you want to observe and you won’t be able to if you’re too conspicuous.
