HOROSCOPE

Aries ( March 21-April 19): Right now it may seem that the spotlight is taking its sweet time getting around to you, but take advantage of the extra moments.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): While it would be wasteful to ask for more help than you need, at least touch base to keep the relationships current.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll make mistakes, but don’t give up. It’s the little flubs that make a process seem more real. Also, this gives you an excuse to connect with others.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’re in just the mood to shun the false sense of security that comes from trying to anticipate and control the action.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Success isn’t the same thing as financial profitability. Many make the classic mis- take of thinking that the trappings of success are actually success itself.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your heart is vulnerable to bumps and bruises. When it hurts, say so — and encourage others to do the same.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You use your senses to take in the moment and your higher mind to assimilate the information into a useful context.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You may find yourself feeling uncomfortable with the basic tenets of society in your neck of the woods. You might be better suited to a different environment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): You find complaining not only useless but also really annoying. Don’t mention unacceptable circumstances unless you also offer a solution.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Even though you like being praised, you’ll act out of a sense of responsibility to represent what you believe.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Just because you don’t make a big deal about being on a spiritual path doesn’t mean you’re not on one.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Are you happily moving from one task to another because you enjoy the stimulation of change? Or are you restlessly wandering because you haven’t found your way?

Today’s birthday (March 8): You will invest some of that strong faith that is your Piscean birthright back into your own being. Honoring yourself in this way makes you more able to generously give to others. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 2, 14, 5 and 18.
