Your Stars
ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Tension is the sweet sounding string music of life. Without conflict, there are no stories. Instead of running from those who oppose you, you find a way to work together toward a mutual aim.
TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): The trouble with overly high standards is that they can be a grind. Should you forego fun out of a slavish adherence to your own rules? Reinforce that it’s a conscious choice to avoid resenting yourself.
GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): In every life, even the busiest and seemingly most fulfilled, there’s a void. Without it, we wouldn’t continue to grow. So answer that tug at your heart. But don’t confuse a fuller life with a complicated one.
CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): As much as you enjoy being the one who gets to cross a thing off your list, sometimes you’re actually the “thing” someone else is crossing off theirs. There’s an odd satisfaction in that too today.
LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): You’ve been known to feel sceptical of mushy romanticisms and fairly so, as they can be quite over-the-top. Love won’t come on the wings of hyperbole, rather it will show itself in subtle specifics.
VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): At some point you have to stop worrying what the others think and do it your way. Maybe it’s a mistake – offensive even. But you need to put it out there to learn instead of holding it in and never being corrected.
LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Eventually the gentle forces will overcome the vehement ones because the intensity just isn’t sustainable. Volcanos expire. Fire dies. Heat cools. The placid lake remains for hundreds of millions years.
SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): People may or may not like what you’re pitching, so, your pride is at stake. Good. Ultimately it will make you sharper and help you align your aims with the needs of those around you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): You might be able to simplify everything at once. What you do to simplify a relationship will in turn simplify your schedule and domestic flow. It may even eliminate your need of a possession or two.
CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Wanting to win, not wanting to back down, needing to come out ahead or be right... these are all natural human instincts to be acknowledged, embraced even, but also transcended.
AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Grown-ups have the same intense feelings as children; they just (hopefully) manage them. You may internally throw a tantrum today. Externally you’ll find a different outlet. Be sure to fully vent.
PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): However informally you may engage in this afternoon’s negotiation, it will be an interaction of consequence. Even though it’s a seemingly minor commitment, you’ll be held to it.
