HOROSCOPES
Aries (March 21-April 19): Explorations beyond your own backyard are required today if you feel stuck. Blind acceptance of restrictions could be detrimental to your progress. Forgo the temptation to steam in frustration; things are not that bad. Taking a risk may be more difficult than it sounds now.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Disagreements may come out of the blue and disturb your good mood. However, it’s healthy to take a realistic look at how your values differ from others’. Stop what you’re planning, and consider another route. Staying calm, cool and collected is what you do best.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): You may be so attuned that you pick up extremely subtle signals. Repetitive cosmic patterns disguise themselves as deja vu. Allow your mind to travel past the five senses, but check your assumptions before building on an unstable foundation.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Work involves deeper organization if you wish to achieve your goals. No one can deter you from your mission once your mind is made up, and arguing won’t likely change anything. Luckily, if diplomacy fails, there will be a time when others are more willing to listen.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Your inclination toward drama is on full tilt today. Your ill-considered actions could create unnecessary trouble now, prompting others who disagree with you to block your actions. Fortunately, success is real if you contain your energy and concentrate on reaching your goal.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Competition motivates you to excel at everything you undertake now.
Whether you’re playing a game or trying to gain cooperation on a project, observe each person’s behavior to assess the talents they bring to the table. Your persistence comes in handy if your energy is low.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You seem to have a natural gift for gab, making it easy for people to learn quite a bit from you. Keep calm; knowing that there’s always time to make a correction is key. If someone becomes impatient, remind them there is a lesson in every interaction.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): People are craving fresh ideas today, and you just might be the one to supply them. Perhaps others aren’t petrified by inertia. Dodge those who ask for unnecessary attention. Everyone can carry their own weight. The biggest challenge is to reach past your mental status quo.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Wandering outside your immediate borders is second nature to you. You Archers require wide open spaces — literally, as in the great outdoors, or metaphorically, as in a larger desk area. Moving quickly relieves you from the unrealistic desire to be in two places at once.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your authentic self is more than enough. Exhausting yourself need not be your plan. Take one step at a time, and make room for recess. Retiring to a beautiful park is the best reward today. John Muir wrote, “In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.”
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Collaborating may seem unduly hard, especially if you spend more time explaining than doing. You prefer to avoid having your authority questioned. Although you might resist communication, you must let people know you need more autonomy.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You fit into society by being yourself and accepting your responsibilities with pride. The key to success is acting with confidence and working your tail off. Overanalyzing your efforts does not produce better results. Authenticity is essential to integrity. The proof is in the pudding.
