ARIES (March 21-April 19)
If a relationship is so fragile it will break if you’re ever mad at each other, then it can only last for as long as there is no conflict. Also, you’ll be afraid to play together because the stakes are too high. What’s fun for you this week will be a relationship that is as dynamic and resilient as a basketball.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
There are things you want to learn, do and master. It’s fun to imagine what “extra” you might unlock from life by applying yourself to the task. The fantasy is you’d come out of it existentially upgraded, but of course, all the potential to feel wonderful is not out there but right here, right now. Happiness is an embrace of this immutable rule of life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
You’ll work in groups, everyone dedicated to the same problem. You’re not threatened by people you don’t agree with because they help you understand more sides of life. The essence of intelligence is being able to work problems from different angles, and it’s harder to get that opportunity surrounded by like minds and “yes” people.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)
The questions people ask you reveal more about them. Also, just keep in mind that the powerful truth of the matter is that you can answer or not answer any question you want, in any way you want, revealing as much or as little as you want. To learn a person quickly, mirror their own questions back to them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
It is impossible to be any more fully human than you are. Whether you are happy, disappointed, strong, vulnerable, behaving to your own preferences or not, you are the same amount of human and as worthy of your own love and support as ever. The more you accept about yourself, the better you will feel.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You have an eye for spotting the potential for high drama and steering clear of it this week, a practice that keeps your relationships in good standing, your goals on track and your life one of peaceful, steady focus. But it’s not all about seriousness or work this week.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
People come to you looking for a safe space to explore their thoughts, gain insight or express things they might not feel comfortable sharing elsewhere. They do this because there’s something unique in how you’re using our conversations. You bring depth and nuance, digging into the questions and complexities.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
This week will illustrate an important point: Things don’t have to last to matter. In fact, they matter more when you know they will end soon. You will benefit from the pressure of a deadline or the knowledge that a stage of a project or relationship is unique and fleeting, and therefore worthy of your careful and keen devotion.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
It will be better to throw creativity and time at a problem than money, which will only be a temporary fix. It’s lucky to lollygag, think hypothetically, delight in whimsy and generally play around. The wild fun will expand your range and ultimately help you get focused and down to business when it matters.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
There are always deeper levels of reality, but this week, it’s the shallow levels that give you real insight. What would stick out to people coming into the situation for the very first time? Something obvious is being overlooked in a familiar setting. Once you make that right, many other things will fall into place.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Love and sharing matter more than proving points. You understand that a good relationship thrives when both partners focus on building the relationship instead of on trying to win or be right. This week, the wisdom will bring warmth to your connections and will keep them free of the distractions of disharmony.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Life is a fast-moving picture this week. Themes include privacy, giving others grace, and the weight of other people’s secrets. Should you really be asked to bear that? And what would you ask of others? A thoughtful, reflective mood will have you touching into your wise humanity, mixing it with warmth and sharing broadly.
