ARIES (March 21-April 19)

New information and alliances will inspire your vision and alter it somewhat to match your fresh understanding of what’s possible. You’ll re-assess, make cuts and additions, and start anew on only what you believe you can finish. Then you won’t stop until reality matches the picture in your mind’s eye. 

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Many illusions depend on where the audience is situated and how close it is to the mechanisms that orchestrate the trick. Consider your distance from a problem. If you’re inside it, it looks huge. This week, you’ll step away, rise above or dig below to get an entirely different perspective on things.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21)

It’s important to get the rest you need because the challenges will require mental sharpness and quick responses. Success depends on everyone holding up their end of the bargain. You’ll lead by example. You’ll set standards for your community. You’ll make modest promises, then you’ll overdeliver.

CANCER (June 22-July 22)

This week brings curveballs, fastballs and screwballs, so just keep swinging for the fences. There’s instinctive wisdom in the body that will play out much faster than intellectual processing can keep up with. You can trust it. To avoid being “up your head,” take on the outsize challenge that is sure to keep the action moving. 

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Though there’s a good chance you’ll nab the prize you’ve had your eye on, you might be surprised at your feelings around this acquisition. The sweetest joy of the week will be couched in, of all things, responsibility. To be needed and to know the difference you make is a source of deep fulfillment. 

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Even the current abundance of human knowledge is but a small mound of facts next to the infinity of unknown things, which is not discouraging in the least to you. You continue to ask the world to reveal itself to you. The questions most worth posing are the ones aimed at practical and actionable answers.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

The secret to maintaining your brightness is to avoid being so busy with responsibility that you have no hours left to use childishly — in exploration, discovery, play and pursuit of youthful whim. Also, the less you care about what people think, the more effective, charismatic and loving you’ll be. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)

With so many incredibly moving and picturesque events this year, sometimes you’ll wonder if you’re living in a movie. Three significant relationships will bring you to scenes you never would have dreamt you’d be a part of. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Counting up is tedious because everyone knows what number comes next. Counting down is only predictable until “three … two … one!” And then comes the uncertainty, the thrill, the final reveal, the ball drop, the rocket launch — go time. Anticipation will turn a slog into an adventure or a competition. 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’re living in a different world than the person next to you is living in. This is true of every being to some extent, but this week, the variation is more noticeable, visceral and sensory. “And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” — Friedrich Nietzsche 

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

No need to execute a task the right way because it’s much more interesting, comfortable and expedient just to do it your way. It’s possible you are too close to your work to understand the nuanced greatness in your own abilities, which is why it’s wonderful that supportive, educated friends will be around to witness you this week.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

A little drama makes life exciting. Too much makes it chaotic. This week, you’re a master of hitting just the right amount. Withholding information creates suspense, but only if you also give enough information to set up the mystery. It’s the advance clues that make a situation interesting.
