HOROSCOPES

Aries (March 21-April 19):

Responsibilities take priority at this time. Procrastinating or entirely avoiding your duties may sound enticing, but this is likely an unrealistic way to spend your time. Consider the ways you have an important part to play at home or with family to help motivate yourself.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

Good habits often don’t happen on their own. Although you have been following positive routines, your energy levels could be tempting you to abandon self-improvement. Remind yourself that this feeling is temporary. Instead of focusing on your current exhaustion, remind yourself that you have goals.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

You might be signing checks that you can’t cash. Regardless of bills or purchases, a misaligned budget could put a hole in your plans. It can be difficult to focus on organizing your finances when they’re not favorable, but being responsible will be worth it in the end.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

A lack of rest could catch up with you. Your mood can be rocky, and the people around you might not know how to handle your erratic emotions. This could lead to you feeling unjustly criticized, but try to hold off on any irate responses until you’ve gotten some sleep.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

Confusion might force you to start over. A lack of guidance could end with you scrapping what you’ve come up with to start fresh more than once. Despite discouragement, once you finally nail down what you’re going for, you should be able to charge ahead with few obstacles.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

The people around you could slow you down today. No matter how much you love your friends, they can still be holding you back from doing something meaningful for yourself. They may not realize they’re stifling you, or think they’re doing a good thing. Ignore the naysayers and just go for it!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Work can take over your brain. Your family may wonder why you’re spending very little time with them, because even if you’re in the same room, you’re probably caught up with work. Make an effort to prioritize the people who love you, even if your workload is staggering.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Idealism can make it difficult to move forward. There might be an idea bouncing around in your head, but you could be holding yourself back. While it’s understandable to want ideal conditions, the perfect situation may not happen. You may have to take a risk.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Fear could be keeping you from enjoying your relationships. Your concerns might be more pronounced now, closing you off from your loved ones. Worrying you have an issue with someone can put a wall between you. Talking it out is the best way to clear up negativity.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Relationships might not be all that they seem on the surface. Your friends and peers could make it difficult to get motivated. Your goals may not line up with their goals, and following their lead can take you down a path you’re not interested in. Follow your own heart and path!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

An abundance of busy work could lead to forgetfulness. You might have several chores or errands, and because of your intense to-do list, you may forget an important event or special day for a loved one. Check and doublecheck that you’re not missing anyone’s special day.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

Transforming your self-expression can be tiring at the moment. Dramatic emotions might be brought on by this change — you could even ask yourself if this change is worth the energy that it’s taking. Make the decision that will make you a more satisfied person in the future.
