HOROSCOPES

Aries (March 21-April 19):

The more you try to be direct with others or yourself, the more you may find yourself going in circles. Instead of trying to direct the show, let yourself be guided by the natural tides of life. Even if you wouldn’t normally go with the flow, trying something new could be quite valuable.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

A social wind is blowing your way. This is a great time to circulate and see what everyone has been up to lately. You can use this to your advantage and widen your professional grid, but it’s also just a wonderful time to reconnect with old friends and make a few new ones in the process.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

It’s time to orient your focus to the top of the ladder. For the next two weeks, make a point of being vocal about your work because your ideas could be quite impressive. People are more likely to notice your pitches when you speak with clarity. They may even open new doors for you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Your thought patterns are about to become much, much wider. This is the perfect time to look for inspiration from other cultures or subjects you might have never studied before — you could come out of this cycle with a much better sense of how the world works.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Your current life might require you to don a detective’s hat and whip out a magnifying glass. This may not be a lighthearted position, but it can help you parse complex issues without being overwhelmed, so use this time to slay any dragons you have tried to otherwise ignore.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Even though your sign is more prone than most to handling everything by yourself, that doesn’t mean going solo is always the best approach. Countless benefits can be gained if you allow other people to play a helpful role in your life. Start making space by your side.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Fog could be clearing ahead of you. You will get a better sense of how to handle the little matters of daily life. In particular, if things have been slipping out of your grasp, that should begin to change. This doesn’t require Herculean efforts; little adjustments can create major improvements.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

The universe is throwing you a party, Scorpio. This is a very lucky phase when you get to put your desires front and center to focus on the things that really make you happy. Don’t be shocked if work is the last thing on your mind. You’ve got the cosmic green light to let yourself live a little.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec.

21): A fresh burst of energy is arriving at your front door. You could see your space becoming more social than normal, and you may decide to host more parties. Your place might transform into the hottest place in town, so go ahead and roll out the welcome mat.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.

19): You may need to start keeping better track of your schedule because your time could be in high demand at any moment. This is a good opportunity for any kind of writing work. Written communications could serve you very well, both professionally and personally.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.

18): Your money might start taking center stage today. If you’re hoping for a raise, then start preparing a list of reasons why you deserve it to present to your supervisor once you’ve fine-tuned your thoughts. If your gaze is hunting for a new position, this is the perfect time to send out your resume.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

A fresh sense of clarity is ready to shine a light on you, Pisces. If you’ve been floating along without much direction, Mercury’s influence can increase your awareness of how you’re going to get where you want to be. Begin charting out your next steps — then take them.
