ARIES (March 21-April 19). In relationships where emotional safety is the norm, you’ll care less about how you’re being perceived and more about a lot of other things, like what you’re giving, how much joy is circulating and the other opportunities that might be present.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). How you love busy people! They do, however, require you to make plans in advance, so those whirlwind lives have a chance to meet up at the same place and time. Put it on the books — the anticipation will be sweet.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People who like the usual way of doing things may have opinions about your method. Hear them out if you want to, and expect to be amused and in no way obligated to change. Bottom line: what works, works.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Other people may judge by shallow things, like who gets attention or has the fanciest stuff. You use your own ideas instead: Did I enjoy this? Did I do a good job? Was I kind? It’s more fun without watching yourself from the outside.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). They learned some facts, read up, and yet they are stuck in the task because some things make sense only after you do them. That’s where you come in. You’ll share what you’ve learned from experience. You’ll be the hands-on guide.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When something interests you, you often meander through the land of “maybe” before you decide yes or no. But today, you’ll see something that’s an immediate “yes, please,” and it’s nice to just know. This one checks all the boxes.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just because you’re checking flights doesn’t mean you’re taking off, but the mere idea of adventuring will be a kind of vacation from the usual stressors. So fantasize. “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” — Helen Keller
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Friendships really blossom when you’re at your best, giving the effort, fun and attention only you can give. Good friendships can also survive the late reply, the long story, the bad mood. You’re here for it all.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Remember when you gave way more than you wanted to just to get out of any possible confrontation? It made sense then, but things are different now. You’re brave enough to take on unpleasantness in the name of fairness.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Unfamiliar activities beckon. When you’re new at something, you don’t pretend you know any more than you do about it, and that’s just the humble stance that will endear you to those who can teach you more.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Emotional healing usually means the memory remains, but it stops being the only thing you think about. Your body stops reacting as though it is happening again. You may have feelings about it, but they don’t stop you from choosing what’s next.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re full of ideas today. Some amuse you for a minute and disappear. But there’s this one that sticks around. It’s tucked in the back of your mind all day and makes its way to the front by night. It could even keep you up.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 20). You will play a card nobody expected in this your Year of the Wild Card. A choice that looks odd at first will make more sense as the game goes on. And the best part is, it comes intuitively to you, and you make moves sometimes before even knowing the grace of your own strategy. More highlights: Your charm attracts friends, makes sales and lands you in novel and interesting places. Family additions. Serene personal time. Scorpio and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 44, 39, 2 and 6.
