HOROSCOPES

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are not strong in spite of your pain but because of it. Reinforcing this will take the edge off.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The power of myth and entertainment cannot be underestimated today. A story will change the power dynamics.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will think more about what’s not going well when you are amidst unwanted circumstances. Boredom, tedium and irritation fuel their own existence.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Experts can get confused and believe their mastery of one area of life carries over to all realms. A system of checks and balances will render this pitfall of power avoidable.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Jealousy can help or hinder your process; it all depends on what you do with your feelings. Acknowledge them. There’s excellent fuel here.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your brain, being efficient, sees no reason to examine things that are very familiar to you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re still deciding if and when to transform. Before it happens, you’re like the famously hungry caterpillar, storing the fuel necessary for change.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Even though it’s a ride that most people would say they don’t want to take, the emotional roller coaster has a line just like all the others.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The circumstances will shift. Try to get into situations that will afford you the flexibility to act on new opportunities as they arise.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Even though it seems like you’d benefit from letting someone else handle some of your workload, it’s all a little trickier than it looks.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The thoughts and input of others will strongly influence the direction things take. You can shape these impressions. Be forward-thinking.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It is not your style to automatically assume leadership. However, you are the best one for the job today.

YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY (Sept. 12). A strong bout of beginner’s luck accompanies this solar return. You’ll be good at things you’ve never done before. You’ll hit it off with new people and have remarkable wins in fresh scenes. Respect, love and connection is featured. A reward in November will kick off an adventure. Taurus and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 30, 2, 22 and 16.
