HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): You know what you want. Now to figure out what others want. It may be implied. But when it’s not, you discover just the thing.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Self-doubt isn’t always a bad thing. In fact, it can be quite useful and is often the mature stance to take. Ask: “Who else is this helping?”

Gemini (May 21-June 21): To know the risks and still invest in another person is trust born of strength.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): So many systems and group cultures downgrade the relevance of integrity. You reject that notion and seek others who are on a moral pursuit.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Memory is imperfect. Perception even more so. This is why parts of your history still seem mysterious to you. Today, a blank gets filled in.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

You set out to show someone how to accomplish a certain aim but what occurs is an unfolding of discovery that you embark on together.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): When you keep your feelings undercover, it’s for a variety of reasons, like to avoid giving away your position. You show your feelings today because you can’t help it.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): What do competition, pressure, wealth, anger, power, passion and desperation have in common? They are all states that teach a person what they are capable of.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): When the people you love are happy, so are you. Their quests and concerns are yours. The lines get blurry, in some spots nonexistent. There’s no shame in drawing them anew.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Avoiding problems is the key in dodgeball. In life, it works better when you go on the offensive, meeting the problems with all you’ve got.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Mercy is a better approach than hard justice; rehabilitation and improved action are likely to follow.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You make way for a positive day. At first, it takes no effort at all. Then people, media and circumstances challenge you. Ignore that which doesn’t fit your positive premise.

Today’s birthday (April 7): You’ll reach a goal that has been important to you for many years. You used to think it would take a great deal of discipline to get there but you find another route. This one shining change has transformative power that touches every other area of your life. Pisces and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 32, 1, 19 and 9.
