Horoscopes

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Ensure your success by setting yourself up for it. The action you need to take is something small that you’ve overlooked. Maybe you didn’t think it was significant enough to make a difference, but small things matter. Momentum builds when you get small things right.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your selfesteem will be irrelevant to the success of a project. You’ll get into the flow of doing what needs to be done and serving the needs of your team, and for a while nothing else seems to exist. Focus creates reality.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll dance around big questions and delve into existential topics, if not with others then in your own thought processes. You’ll consider what it means to be in your world and form new ideas about who to become.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Media offers experiences beyond what seems currently possible in real life. Sure, it’s a fantasy, but it still teaches you something. You’ll expand your potential as you model yourself in some small way after a character you admire.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s time to achieve a higher understanding of your circumstances, how they came to be and what your specific part is in this drama, or comedy, such as the case may be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Go where you have stiff competition. You’ll be inspired by how others are achieving results and you’ll also be inspirational to others. They point out how you’re special, which is something you’re too close to be able to see on your own.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Find out the intentions of others. Poke around. Ask good questions and observe the energy and tone of the answers you get. Be skeptical of obviously rehearsed pitches or unearned compliments -- both will lead to an ask.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re brave. It’s a more exciting way to live. You’ll keep moving forward. People will follow you. First, you’ll act like you have confidence in your skills, and then you’ll use them enough to actually become confident.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Empiricism, the belief that knowledge comes strictly through observation and experience, will be the philosophical tenant that keeps you on track today. The favored approach: Note what’s really there and stick with what works in practice rather than in theory.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Humanity often upholds its own interests at the expense of the interconnected ecosystem it belongs to. Though no creature can be blamed for the limited awareness of its vessel, you will transcend human bias and take up a cause for other beings.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The root of the issue is, by definition, buried. As gardeners know, if you’re too aggressive with fragile roots, you can kill the system. To get to the bottom of the problem, dig gently.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Knowing people can always change their minds, you seize their moment of interest in you. Like an entrepreneur fielding an investment opportunity on the television series “Shark Tank,” you’ll make a decision quickly because your options could disappear otherwise.
