HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Your life tears off from the form, circling back to offer you a choice: Either get back in step or see it so vividly that you couldn’t possibly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): The test of a relationship and individual character is the ability to set aside selfish interests to do the right thing in the moment.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You decide what to focus on, and this choice takes care of hundreds of other choices.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Clear thinking is a product of judging things wrong, realizing the error and trying to assess it another way.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Having very little to lose is an excellent position and the one that produces the most exciting risk-taking.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Intense emotions are like super glue for the pictures we add to the scrapbook of the mind. It’s really hard to remember things you don’t care about.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Opinions change all the time in an environment in which there’s not a lot of ego or punishment wrapped up in the consequences of change. Relatedly, it will be easier to influence people one on one.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): While you prefer the meaning of things to be straightforward, as it makes your decisions easier, there is opportunity in ambiguity.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): The day’s gifts will need to be unwrapped. Excellent questions are like deft fingers peeling away at what’s covering a surprise.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Nothing triggers obsessive thoughts quite as effectively as unrequited feelings. The extension of energy left unmet is like an open drain into which feelings can flow, endlessly wasting.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): This relationship has dynamics; some parts feel much better than others. It may help to recognize the pattern as a larger set of emotions to cycle through.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): People are experimenting. It could go either way. The question is: Can you afford the risk?

(Feb. 10): Your presence! Many will remark that you are more strongly felt than ever, like a lighthouse on the shore sending a warm beacon to guide ships to adventure or bring them safely home. As for your own agendas and ambitions, you’ll find they come to fruition more easily than ever. It’s quite simply your time. Gemini and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 35, 44, 1 and 10.
