ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your sense of fun is going strong, and you’ll be inclined to say yes to friends intent on roping you into their games and schemes. Going along for the ride will definitely have its perks!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People are curious about you. You’ll share, knowing they’re unlikely to understand. If they ask why you do what you do or why you did what you did, just shrug lightly. “Because I felt like it” is a complete philosophy.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You like to keep your emotional weather private, but today you could go either way. You’re sensitive, but you choose when to show it. Process feelings on your own whim. It’s really OK to be unpredictable in this and other small, delightful ways.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Follow your body’s response to requests of you. If your chest tightens or you feel heavy, don’t go. If you feel curious, floaty, or lightly mischievous, go. No rationalizing. No “I should.” Only: How does this feel?
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re reliable, impressive and talented at solving problems. Do avoid letting anyone come to you every time with the same problem. If you always fix things for them, they never learn, and you become their default crisis manager.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Mismatched intensity feels frustrating and has potential to discourage. But when you’re with people who can meet your hustle, your warmth and your creativity, the whole scene brightens. You get things done together and the teamwork creates a sense of belonging.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your creative energy is potent today. Don’t let it stay abstract; give it form. What you express now will come to have a life of its own and will spark something in the people who receive it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Too much negotiating hurts a relationship because the longer a negotiation goes on, the more likely you are to accidentally hurt someone’s ego by valuing or devaluing the wrong thing. Make a deal or don’t make a deal, but keep it short!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Suffering doesn’t mean you’re doing life wrong. Sometimes it means life is asking too much of you. You’re one person doing the work of many. Of course you’re going to feel overextended. Your frustration about that is data.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have fans. The interest and admiration will be an energy boost. And don’t worry, you don’t have to perform for anyone. Simply do what comes naturally and make yourself comfortable … because your comfort makes everyone comfortable.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In the world of entertainment, it’s a sin to bore the audience. In polite society, it’s the norm. You’re in the mood to deliver an experience to people, and it’s OK if you go a bit out of the expected for the sake of capturing and holding their attention.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Wondering if someone is good for you? Consider that “good for you” doesn’t always feel fun in the moment. Also, your needs are changing so rapidly now, the answer might be different in a few days. Return to the question next week.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 26). Welcome to your Year of Sharp Timing. Your quips land, you’ll buy and sell auspiciously, you’ll say yes in the right moment, pass when necessary, and catch opportunities just before they peak. In relationships, someone meets you exactly where you are time and again. More highlights: a money-saving miracle, a supportive collaboration and a long-awaited green light. Virgo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 8, 20, 13 and 50.
