ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll do something you’re bad at and enjoy yourself far more because of it. Nobody is keeping score. You have no reputation to defend. Bang around, miss the shot, sing the wrong note. Amateur status equals freedom.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Why are we saving the “good china,” so to speak? Use it just because. Don’t worry, it will still be special when you use it on “special” occasions. So take the pleasure now instead of preserving it for some theoretical future event.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Usefulness is overrated. Go down the rabbit hole. You’ll read about one thing, click into another and wind up fascinated by a subject you had no intention of learning about. A magnificent “waste of time” is sweet conversational fodder.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). It will be so fun to spend time with someone without needing to accomplish anything together. “No agenda” will prove to be the best agenda there is. Talking and laughing about stupidity is its own joyous event.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You need no invitation and no audience to dress in exactly what makes you smile. Something a little excessive will suit the day. If it looks fab in the mirror, whatever happens after that is a bonus.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Creativity without rules (SET ITAL)is(END ITAL) the rule. Make something with no customer, deadline or practical use attached. It’s fine to waste materials or change direction halfway through. It’s all about experimentation.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The thing that makes flirting so fun is that is has no agenda beyond making someone smile. Also, be generous with your famous charm. It’s not an audition. A charged exchange gives you both a lift without implication or obligation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Investigate something that is none of your business in the most harmless possible sense. Look up the building, decipher the inscription or find out who owned that strange house. Curiosity sends you somewhere fascinating, and you owe nobody a report.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Forget the direct route. The one that makes less sense will make for more fun in this lunar moment. And there’s time to turn down the interesting street or make unplanned stops. Getting sidetracked is entertaining.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). This is one of those rare times when it’s actually lucky to start something with no intention of finishing. What luxury! You can leave the loose ends loose, and tomorrow, you’ll actually be glad you did.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The best games won’t be on a board, court or field. It’s playing around with expectations or inventing ridiculous rules for fun. The game needs no purpose beyond making an ordinary stretch of time much more entertaining.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To let yourself be absorbed in something with no obvious value will be heavenly. Watch the birds. Study an old photograph. Learn the chorus of a song you’ll probably forget. Losing track of time means it was well spent.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 6). In your Year of the Pleasure Principle, you’ll build your life around what you love doing, eating, seeing and experiencing. Instead of muscling your way to your goals, you’ll learn to focus on what’s working and let it pull you along. Bad habits fall away. More highlights: a luxurious upgrade, playful competition that brings out your best and a recurring date you look forward to every time. Capricorn and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 18, 27, 32 and 41.
