HOROSCOPES

Aries (March 21-April 19): You may be longing for happier days, but this could end up falling flat today. If you’ve been helping someone you care about, your efforts might be getting you both nowhere. If they have no desire to meet you halfway, it may be time to put your energy elsewhere.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

Finances are highlighted for you now, and you may find that you don’t have the funds you need. Others may have put unrealistic expectations in your mind, and you’ve ended up somewhere different from where they said you were going. Turn things around. Don’t let others keep you from what you desire.

You could be your own worst enemy today. Confusion regarding your career is likely, and you could miss something important. You may also be feeling irritable, so remember to take a few deep breaths before you go off on someone. Combat mishaps with a zen attitude.

Gemini (May 21-June 20): Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Misunderstandings could prevent your progress, so make sure that you and others in your life are on the same page. You may be holding a grudge against someone for something they did by accident, or vice versa, and this confusion is creating animosity.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Crowdsourcing your thoughts and opinions probably won’t go over well now, so be aware when trying to make decisions. Although you may be feeling more emotionally passionate or even self-conscious now, don’t let embarrassment or fear of disappointing others hold you back.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You might have been a workaholic lately, creating distance between yourself and the people who love you, even if you’re doing it all for them. Break free of the need to constantly be achieving and make sure that you’re making time to connect with those who matter to you.

It can be hard to explain yourself today, leading to miscommunications. Someone may be giving you instructions to follow, and end up disappointed with your response. Communicating clearly and having a realistic timetable for how long things will take will help you avoid hurt feelings.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Your faith in others might be shaken, especially if you’ve been taking things more seriously than they have. Make sure your expectations are clear, because you have the potential to lose your cool. You have no way of controlling other people.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Living your life for other people is difficult, and today you may see why. Other people — possibly roommates or family — might try to force you to conform to what they want for you. Ask yourself if this is your dream or theirs before you commit. Goals that don’t resonate with you should be put to rest.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

You can’t expect to see progress where you haven’t been consistent. Similarly, you can’t expect to see wounds heal where you keep reopening yourself to the pain. If your consistent effort has been on relationships or activities that are detrimental to you, redirect your focus.

If you aren’t paying attention to where your money is going, it could disappear. Look through your accounts carefully — once you’re certain there are no unexpected bills and no scammers affecting your cash flow, you can breathe easier knowing that you only have your spending tendencies to control.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

You could be of two minds right now, but it’s OK to be indecisive. It can be difficult to get in touch with your feelings now, and you may realize once you’ve committed that you want to flip back to the other option, but then it’s too late.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):
