Today’s Horoscope
Aries: This may not be a time to try coasting through on your good looks and charm. People will likely be evaluating you on purely objective grounds. Make sure your work can stand on its own merit without your name.
Taurus: Small children, cats, and your friends can be equally difficult to herd. Do what you can to get them where they need to be but accept that they might not always follow your plans and have fun anyway.
Gemini: If you change your look or your attitude you might fit better into the crowd as though you were wearing camouflage. You need to decide if you are sacrificing your authenticity for a worthy purpose or not.
Cancer: Opportunities for advancement may be coming. This could be a suitable time to improve your credentials, so you can be ready for whatever comes your way. Be ready to take on new responsibilities soon.
Leo: Any urgency in the problems du jour may make it difficult to plan for the future. You need to find breathing room before you take meaningful action or prepare for all the next steps. Tomorrow is a new day.
Virgo: Even if you someday have enough clout to ignore deadlines, for the time being, they still matter. Rather than panicking, prioritize your tasks and ask for extensions on the least urgent projects like a boss.
Libra: Saying no can be a difficult skill to learn. If you find yourself buried under piles of things you’ve agreed to do out of guilt or duty, it may be better for your sanity to abandon a less important project. Take time to get organized.
Scorpio: Advisers can push you in different directions. Think about their agendas before you decide who to follow. Even if they mean well, they only see the world through their own eyes. Identify your own priorities.
Sagittarius: Much can be accomplished through discussions that seek out win-win solutions and by focusing on maximum benefit for everyone. Don’t be fooled into thinking you are right if you’re wrong.
Capricorn: Dating can be a minefield even when things seem to go well. Use judgment and experience to avoid any traps if single. Introduce a new someone to friends and take their opinions seriously; they likely know your blind spots.
Aquarius: When anyone asks for the impossible or changes terms when you are almost done, take a breath. Remind yourself that they are probably doing the best they can with what they have. It may just be poor planning.
Pisces: You could be wearing blinders when it comes to relationships; it can be easy to be fooled by surface appearances. Someone may think your friendliness and warmth promise more intimacy than you intend.
If March 1 is your birthday: During the next six to eight weeks, consider keeping your head down to avoid criticism or censure and remain efficient and highly organized to keep up with any pressing obligations. Try not to accept extra responsibilities or debts if you can avoid them. Wait until late April or May to make key decisions or put new initiatives into motion, while you may have access to helpful friends and advisers.
Joining groups and engaging in social activities might be the best way to fulfill your need for human contact. Be cautious about new attractions in late May and early June when you could be blind to someone’s faults and could be prone to daydreaming. Ambitions might be aroused in June when your business sense is probably enhanced, so you can try to achieve a certain level of financial security by applying some smart tactics. Relax and enjoy yourself in July when you should feel free to express yourself.
