Horoscope

Aries (March 21-April 19) •••• Stepping back has taught you a lot. Now, step forward and apply new information or perspectives. What emerges will be delightful and invigorating in some manner. Still, a boss or responsibilities exist — honor them. Tonight: Make merry.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) •••• Speak your mind. Be aware of the power of the mind and of its children: ideas. Invest in an idea that deeply appeals to you. Though on some level you retreat midday, it doesn’t mean that a commitment is over. Tonight: Happy at home.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ••••• Don’t expect others to see eye to eye with you. Many feel squeezed financially, so absorb a new perspective. Ease up on having things your way. Listen and share.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ••• Mood swings are nothing new for you, but you could be shocked by how quickly security can become the issue this afternoon. Consider backing off from a difficult but key person in your life.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ••• This afternoon, you transform into the powerful Leo power we all would want on our team. Your magnetism and sunny style make many feel comfortable. Positive thinking can be contagious.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) •••• Accomplish all that you can by high noon, when you enter a reclusive and reflective phase. If you are to continue on the same path, times of thought and centering will be necessary. Don’t fight the inevitable.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) •••• Taking a stand is not always your strong point. Feeling overwhelmed happens too often for your taste. Consider delegating more. A meeting proves to be the fertile bed of many ideas.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• Read between the lines and examine what you feel are the possibilities. Is someone missing a key opportunity? Help others see the possibilities of an event or discussion. Your leadership skills come into play in the afternoon.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• Working with an associate or partner might be exhausting, especially as you might be hitting ground zero and facts remain facts. Be inspired in the afternoon and seek out many who don’t think like you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) •••• What you believed you knew about the people around you could prove to be way off. Though you don’t need to beat yourself up, do be aware. People change and transform. So do you.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••• Listen to news that wings your way. Though you might shake your head, use this information to your highest good. Network this afternoon, after you have cleared off your desk and returned all calls.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ••• Try to be more practical. Though it is nice to be a visionary of sorts, what might be even better is to find a reality-based application for your thoughts. Others will support you if they see the benefits of a concept.
