Horoscope

Aries (March 21-April 19) •••• Get as much done as you can first thing in the morning. Meetings, networking or just plain taking a half-day could work well. You have gone beyond the call of duty. Optimism reigns right now. Don’t rain on your own parade.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) •••• Yes, you are creative and open, but it doesn’t mean you aren’t going to hit a problem. In fact, you might not have the right answer. Avoid a power play by not playing. Maintain your distance from a difficult comrade.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ••• You swing from one Twin to another. With this type of mood change, are you surprised that others don’t understand you? Suddenly, you want to chat and share more. Your creativity flows, as does the need to be noticed.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) •••• Look at that naughty twinkle in your eye. You might feel pressured by a situation involving a partner and/or your home. Disengage rather than engage and trigger. Everyone will be happier – most of all, you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) •••• Get past a problem early on. At first you might be coming from a gut reaction and need to realize this reaction no longer works. You don’t want the end results. Start communicating.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••• You bloom in the morning, but everything feels excessive in the p.m. You don’t need to participate. You can decide to pull out and not be part of a situation that is going overboard. How you deal with others counts.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••• You might drag in the morning, but by midday, you enter a powerful period of the month. You will be a force to behold. Others enjoy you like this, but a family member might feel threatened.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ••• Use the morning, when you are most likely to succeed. Guard against a tendency to be negative in the afternoon. Someone might say something, but you misinterpret his or her words or intentions. Separate yourself from an automatic reaction.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• Step up to the plate in the morning, and you will be celebrating by the evening. How you see someone could change radically because of a talk. Don’t get pulled into a financial commitment. Say no if you need to or want to.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) •••• Share more of the long-term trends that you perceive are about to happen. Lighten up about a boss. You might be more desirous of control than you were originally aware. Could the problem be yours?

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) •••• Work with a partner directly, even if you feel there is an implied issue. Get past the problem in the afternoon by reframing it. Empathize more and judge less. Think positively.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• Others demand, and for the sake of having peace, you go along with their requests. Your fatigue could be very high and somewhat debilitating. If you can, call this an early day. A close friend or loved one pitches in.
