Horoscopes: Thursday, March 31, 2022

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll deal with bureaucracy. If you try to make too much sense of the ever-evolving rules and regulations, it only complicates things. Jump through the hoops and keep moving.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The person inside an experience is the only one who really knows what it’s like. You get the most out of life by living fully in your own situation. You’ll resist the temptation to spend too much time thinking about what others are doing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Glory-seekers are harshly judged, yet true glory is never really confined to one person. Glorious victory involves and inspires many. If you’re motivated by big wins, go for it. You won’t be the only one winning.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Now is the time to either take action with great intention or give up. There is no in-between mode that will yield results. Better to quit now and try again later than to invest halfhearted energy.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Problems happen on one plane and get solved on another. The difference in vantage is crucial. Fortune favors you as you step out of the familiar zone and move to an uncomfortable place to see the problem from a new angle.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Whether or not things go to plan doesn’t matter in the least to you because, bottom line, it’s fun to be you. And when you’re around good people, the joy you take in just being yourself isn’t something you have to hide.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll have to work at conversation. Find your “go-to” statement. A fun fact or headline from the realm of sports and entertainment could be just the icebreaker.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). While people around you play their advantages and find their opportunities, you’ll be focused on mutually fulfilling exchanges. Success will be yours over and over.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Don’t be too quick to eliminate tension -- not until you know its source, cause, effect and nature. Tension may be holding the whole thing up. Energy is stored in the cord. Cutting could be dangerous.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Keep looking for like minds. You need a few more to bravely move out of your element. You’re bigger than the situation and you’re just the one to break the ice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re a learner, motivated by the sheer pleasure of knowing, understanding and doing more. External factors such as remuneration or recognition will hardly factor into your decisions.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Some are excited by the idea of enjoying life while others are daunted by pressures of “having fun” unsure exactly how and why to do it. You’ll be a guide for those in the second category.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 31). A highlight of the year: delightfully challenging people who inspire your most playful instincts. You’ll dance with equally talented partners. You’ll do work better, faster and cheaper and be promoted for your expertise. Your association with old friends bring new prospects. Family makes you proud. Cancer and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 12, 2, 29 and 14.
