ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have strong feelings, passionate whims and a preference for getting your way. However, you’re not some chaos pixie flitting from drama to drama. You’re practical! Today, you choose strategy over impulse, and compassion over strategy.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re really onto something. Your ideas deserve curious people — people who immediately see the implications and possibilities. The right audience will be so excited, they will interrupt with a multitude of questions.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re not performing for attention; you just want to make an effort for a person who deserves it. You’re so good at giving the sort of breezy but sincere appreciation that can really refill a person’s tank.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll use your soulful sensitivity to figure out what kind of attention someone needs. Maybe you’re not the right one to give it, and that’s good to know, too. You’ll find the right fit.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Everyone seems to want something from you today, though few will come right out and say what it is. Give this story time to develop and the missing information will show up like a message written in invisible ink.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Fix your gaze ever-forward toward plans, hopes and even toward what some might consider an impossible future. Let them apply their rules to their own life while you keep believing in your own idea of what’s possible.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The best way to deal with frustration today is to give it a job. Choose one action with a visible finish: send the email, repair the hinge or make the appointment. You’ll feel better when trapped energy turns into movement.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Co-dependency gets a bad reputation, but there are also benefits from being so entwined with another that they can navigate the rapids with you. Today, you will help and be helped, working as one with someone who really knows you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). After enough disappointments, you edit your expectations, as almost anyone would. But today, hold out hope. This gold standard you have is actually out there; you just haven’t met it yet.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is like a knock-knock joke. Someone shows up with only part of the information. Further inquiry won’t bring further illumination, though it may make you laugh, or pretend to.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s a strange feeling when you’re looking for something but you’re not sure exactly what’s missing. It could be sleep, purpose, travel, friendship or a dog. Stay open to the call of your heart.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Unconditional love isn’t an emotion, rather it’s a state of being that allows you access to any number of powerful emotions to serve its purpose — to keep loving whether or not they earn it, return it or appreciate it.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 2). It’s your Year of Seasonal Charms in which each of the 12 zodiac seasons will bring you an improbable gift so perfectly suited to you, it will feel enchanted. More highlights: No more searching — the money finds you. Your favorite people introduce you to your future favorite people, and you feel stronger, sharper and more adventurous every month. Taurus and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 18, 31, 12 and 45.
