ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Your interest in people’s good news gives them the opportunity to relive it as they tell the story. You’re so receptive and encouraging that people want to bring you more of the good stuff. They associate you with the spark of excitement that comes with winning. And the universe will, too, this week, as evidenced by a surprise win.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
This week, you’re a model of acceptance, of embracing life as it is and welcoming it all, even the mess — (SET ITAL)especially(END ITAL) the mess. Your open heart may not alter the situation immediately, but it changes how things feel. Eventually, as the stress falls away, something fresh and new takes its space.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
Your gratitude keeps relationships warm between interactions. You don’t just appreciate things. You show it, say it, write it, post about it — you make sure they know. A quick “I loved that you did X” sticks with people this week, and it boomerangs back to you in the form of social ties coming together to form a kind of safety net.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)
Memory is the theme. You make memories, and you simply remember things. For instance, you’ll remember and use people’s names this week. It shows them you’re paying attention and they matter. It does this in a way nothing else quite matches. People feel seen around you, and it moves them. You’ll make a new friend.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
You bring humor to everyday moments. Your light observations put smiles on faces. Your playful comments energize. Your mere presence lifts the mood. Your talent for reading the room will be put to good use this week. Wherever you go, you set the tone, focus the topics and keep it kind. You’ll be the great unifier.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
When you set out on an adventure, you expect a bit of uncertainty, discomfort and a learning curve. But when such things disrupt your more familiar environment, that’s bothersome. This week will bring friction, so you may as well embark on the adventure because then the friction is welcome. It’s part of the fun.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
It’s OK not to have it all figured out now — in fact, it’s very relatable. Tell people your challenges. And if people don’t know what you’re dealing with, they never get the chance to share a bonding experience with you. So speak up. You might be surprised about who cares, advises and helps this week.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
The Chinese proverb says, “A tiger dies and leaves a skin; a man dies and leaves a name.” Today, you’re mindful of what your name means to others — the feeling and associations that come with it. You’re doubling down to make sure your name is associated with problem-solving, generosity of spirit and integrity.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Keep communication simple as you navigate through this week’s various characters and circumstances. Everyone seems to need something different from you. You don’t have to provide for all, but you want to at least make sure you understand what people are asking for. And trouble’s avoided by making sure your messages have been received.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Will you get yours? Will they get theirs? The good news is, you don’t have to spend your energy policing the fairness of this week’s situations and relationships. You’ll invest that energy in shaping the conditions of your own life, which is the one place where the cause-and-effect is most reliable.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Whatever you do or say this week, some people will be on your side, and some won’t. That’s normal, not a problem to fix. Support steadies you. Disagreement does something different but no less useful. It gives you something catalytic. It forces you to think, clarify, defend, adjust or even change course.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
You’re often more inclined to listen than to speak, but this week, the world really needs your voice. Besides, there’s not much out there that speaks to you directly or is worth engaging with. Let that be your cue. When the world isn’t offering much, it’s a clear invitation to step up and add something of your own. Your contribution will really help someone.
