WEEKENDER HOROSCOPES
Venus in the sign of partnership and Jupiter in the warrior’s realm pull across the sky with a tension that raises issues of purpose and loyalty as well as interests more primal. When our reactions to life surprise us, they also show us what matters. We may not be conscious of just how deep our feelings go until they cause us to jump into action.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Doing the new thing once is a good start. Believe in yourself enough to get through these early stages and it will get easier. Two times brings momentum. Three times begins the pattern … keep it up; soon you’ll be living it!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your urge to entertain doesn’t always show up in the formal sense; rather, it’s a simple impulse to keep people guessing. Your unpredictability will mesmerize. More than a relationship skill, this could be considered a public service!
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You don’t attempt to see through people, but you can’t help but notice when they tell you through their actions who they are. When that doesn’t seem to match up with who they want you to believe they are, the red flags fly.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your need for solitude will be exaggerated. Because you’re so giving, you tend to get involved in helping those around you when you really want to be doing your own work. Without distractions, you’ll accomplish quite a lot.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Perhaps it doesn’t look like the grand destination of your imaginings, but the place you’ve come to holds fateful potentials. Think of it as an interesting crossroads. No pressure, but one decision could change everything!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll gravitate to the ones who possess a certain lightness of being, which is one of those rare treasures that can only be obtained through loss. It’s what you don’t have (like baggage and judgment) that allows you to have it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You feel someone tugging at you psychically. Maybe this person just wants to be close to you, or maybe this is about a need that’s so intangible that neither of you can really pinpoint what it is. You’ll find out when it’s fulfilled.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What if you found out that the person you want to be is actually who you are now? Would it change how you approach your day? It’s a good day to try the idea on. Assume that you’re already “there” and act accordingly.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). As you respond to the tone your loved one uses, while giving the verbiage much less credence, you’ll be reminded to sweeten your own communication and contribute to the mood you want for the atmosphere around you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re prone to fantasies, which is proof of your creativity. As lovely as the escape may be, you’re also aware that the impulse to go there is a sign that your current surroundings aren’t optimal. How could they be better for you?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Journaling allows you to express yourself in a safe environment, unless you’re too critical of yourself. Once you get your thoughts down, know that they are acceptable, changeable and temporary. Consider yourself kindly.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In sports, keeping score is essential and even serious. But in love, the metrics are so numerous and varied and even if you could keep track, the ones that are quantifiable tend to matter the least.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY. Your life is filled with things richer than power and pleasure, including the clarity and agency to bring your ideas to life, no permission or validation necessary. But even though you don’t need the praise, what you create will be lauded by those who need it very much. You’ll enjoy overdue compensation and advancement. Leo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 4, 44, 18 and 30.
