ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Exposure to mental manipulation is constant in the modern world where we are being marketed to for most of our waking hours. If anyone is going to persuade you, let it be you. Decide what you need to think and do and tell yourself over and over until the new way crowds out the old way and everything in you is engaged in making it happen.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
It’s wonderful to be around certain people, which can actually be a little scary for you. You don’t want to depend on others to feel happy. But maybe it’s not dependency so much as appreciation. You’re the one generating the good feelings because of the way you focus on the good in others.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
The reason you don’t always let people know what you’re up to is that you like being the source of their surprise and delight. It’s also interesting to see whether you meet or defy their estimations of you. You’ll get to see them in the thrill of discovery this week.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)
People forgive youthful folly but disdain the mistakes of older people who should know better. But if they knew better, they’d do better. Maturity isn’t a uniform process, rather it occurs at different stages and ages. Your life gets happier and lighter when you forgive across the board.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
You’re in an ambitious mode. It’s OK to take on a level you don’t feel ready for. You’ll catch up to it soon enough. New relationships are part of the fun this week. You’ll feel someone is telling you something with their eyes — a secret of the heart that no one else knows.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Though most things worth having can’t be purchased with money, something you buy today will raise your spirits for a while. When they settle, you’ll have a deep appreciation of the finer and unbuyable things that make you wealthy indeed, including relationships, your appreciation of beauty, and so much more.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
When you’re the buffer between strong-willed people in your group, as you will be at times this week, you’ll feel called to hang in there and absorb some of the friction. It’s a kindness you afford them. However, if the prize they compete for is you, the kindest thing you can do for all involved is run.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
You’re curious, empathetic and open to new experiences. Your life is better because of this, and your experiences wider. However, containing your energy and protecting your heart is not the easiest task, and you’ll have challenges in that regard. Life won’t hand you anything you’re not ready for.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Friends, loved ones and supporters help you in every way they know, and yet what you really need is still conspicuously missing. It’s an opportunity to widen the circle, broaden the search. You’ll be so lucky with it. Almost everyone you ask has a new lead for you. If it’s not quite what you want, it’s at least a little closer each time.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
The serious problems won’t be interesting and the interesting problems won’t be serious. You’ll find yourself on various sides of it throughout the week. You really can cover all your bases when you pause and integrate the opposite side; the high and low, silly and grave, significant and frivolous.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You’ll look deep into situations and figure out where everyone is really coming from. It won’t be too hard to learn the motives of all involved, and even if those are not ideal, it’s a comfort to know. You’d rather have a true understanding of a selfish motive than be stuck wondering about the reality of a situation.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Listen to advice and try it out if it seems feasible, but ultimately, it’s what feels good to you that matters. However accomplished and successful someone is, they still could be way off about what’s right for you. It’s time to double down on your self-belief and trust your own quirky ways of getting life done.
