Horoscopes: Tuesday, March 21, 2023

ARIES (March 21-April 19). A wholistic frame of mind comes so naturally, you don’t realize that others think differently. You don’t really feel your condition has improved until you look around and see that others have also improved. You’ll share all you’ve gained and learned.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Life can be harsh. In some ways, you feel you’ve been spared and even spoiled, though in other ways you’ve had to take the hard knocks. Your range of experience helps you relate to others and appreciate today’s situation.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be cool, calm and collected on the outside no matter how you feel on the inside. It’s strategically the right thing to do. Showing emotion is a risk you only take when you feel safe. Consider what might be causing you to feel guarded.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re not one to jump ship just because it’s sprung a little leak. Your two best friends will be a cup for bailing and the faith to keep at it until you reach the shore to give your vessel the love and mending it needs.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll deal with oblivious types who could use a wake-up call, though you’re not obligated to be the one to deliver it. You may instead find a workaround. Even though it’s inconvenient, you’ll gain something valuable in the process.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s often not necessary to take offense. The shade that moody people throw will pass like clouds floating across the sun. When you don’t give negativity much attention, things can lighten up in a moment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). One minute you’re certain, and then you’re out of your element. Good — you don’t need a lot of confidence when you’re gathering information. Better to be a humble sponge, asking questions and absorbing new information.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Deep wells of empathy are a blessing once you learn how to regulate them. You don’t want to feel things more than is useful. Ideally, a feeling is merely a signal to move you to action.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). In a lifetime where much seems to have been decided for us, or has happened by chance, it’s fun to have a day like today in which it’s very clear you are becoming the person you decided to be.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your happiness will come directly from your own actions, though not the expected ones. Doing a thing to become happy seldom works, but action taken to solve a problem or elevate someone else will open the door for joy to come in.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s easier to do an extraordinary job when the task itself is quite ordinary. To do an extraordinary job at something that is already quite challenging is much more difficult. Practice on the former before you move to the latter.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll busy yourself with caring for loved ones and meeting physical, intellectual and emotional needs. The greatest adventure will be the one that sneaks up on you while you’re executing your very practical plans.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 21). Welcome to your year of discovery. Many of the treasures you’ll find inside you. You’ll learn of talents and develop skills. You’ll find styles of working and zero in on preferences that make life enjoyable. More highlights: a group trip, becoming adept at a kind of language and syncing wonderfully with an exciting someone. Scorpio and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 30, 2, 21 and 16.
