Horoscopes: Sunday, Sept. 18, 2022

ARIES (March 21-April 19). An easygoing day awaits. You’ll relax into the business at hand. Solutions will be logical and within reach. Then the night will provide contrast. The good things won’t be easy; the easy things won’t be good.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re feeling possessive of someone you love. Reasonably, you know that no person can own another, but this is counteracted by a territorial instinct. What would make you feel secure in this relationship?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Pragmatism is an attractive quality, especially in the eyes of those who struggle with the practicalities of life. People start to count on you to be the voice of reason, and you will even be paid for using good sense.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There will be many people who will advise you, and yet deciding whose opinion to follow won’t be hard in the least. The words that resonate with you will seem to also fuel your next move. Everything seems to click in.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your playful mood will inspire people around you to be a lighthearted version of themselves. Creativity is making mistakes; art is knowing which ones to frame.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Those who are busy trying to prove themselves will miss out on appreciating and learning from their surroundings. You’ll let down your guard, lose your agenda and take things in.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Many animals eat what’s bugging them. You’ve occasionally eaten when bugged, too, though it doesn’t solve the problem. Being assertive and willing to talk about what’s bothering you makes stress eating unnecessary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). As natural as it may be to want relationships to be perfectly reciprocal, perfect balance and mutuality isn’t the norm. People give in different ways, and typically, someone gives more. That doesn’t make it a bad relationship.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The circumstances shift. New opportunities will open even as new boundaries are erected. Acceptance is graceful. Resistance is awkward. Neither is better than the other, but it does help to know what state you’re in.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll bring your own emotional weather to interactions. It will work for you. Some are prone to using their moods to sway those around them, and it will help you to be impervious to this sort of manipulation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Many are inwardly more insecure than appearances would suggest. If you have to constantly reassure someone of your love, it will get tiring. Anything you can do proactively will help.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You like to find out what you can do on your own. So even though you may start out with the help of a friend or benefactor, you will be most satisfied by your ventures beyond the safety net of those social ties.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 18). Your faith in people stands out this year as you trust them to do the right and good thing, and they impress you by going above and beyond in displays of great loyalty and tremendous talent. Your ability grows, too, as you nurture the positive traits of yourself and others. A financial reward will be a game changer. Gemini and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 12, 2, 22 and 18.
