Horoscopes: Wednesday, March 9, 2022

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll see the end of a struggle. This could pertain to something you do for money versus something you do for love. Neither side of your conflict will be a clear winner, but the situation will resolve.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Time bends. When you’re waiting, the minutes stretch through eternity. When you’re in the flow, time blurs. And in your dreams, time is irrelevant. As you master this day, you’ll seem to have control over the flow of time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may pretend you don’t know something because it helps the other person save face, or focus your attention on what others need even though it’s silly. In the end, diplomacy benefits you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Today there’s a whimsical world playing inside your head, while the outside world is rather routine. Your creativity will grow as you try to reconcile these two experiences.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You know money doesn’t buy happiness, but that doesn’t make you satisfied with less money. So, you’ll do emotional work for personal fulfillment and professional work for dollars.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your critical thinking skills are on point. You’ll make keen observations and articulate them well. This benefits you best when strategically paired with the spirit of diplomacy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You know what it’s like to say the wrong thing at the wrong moment, so you react with compassion when someone else makes this mistake. The goodwill you generate helping someone save face is karma in the bank.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Fear is energy; it is therefore directable. Fear can give you the fuel to run, think fast or fight. If you know where you’ll run to, what problem you’ll solve or what’s worth fighting, you’ll have a good place to direct the energy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The tools used to create will be a focus. But don’t be fooled; the tools do not make the creation. Creativity is in the head and heart. Fancy, expensive tools can actually work against the art.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re confident in your abilities, but a loved one is even more so, talking you up behind your back and paving the way for your next opportunity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A conversation has stretched on and on and will continue to do so until someone walks away. Since no agreement will be reached, you must decide whether the conversation is intrinsically rewarding to stick with.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s a decision to make about a relationship. It’s not something you’ll make together. Think about what you want and what you won’t have and make some plans about what you’ll do when and if your boundaries are crossed.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 9). Your specialty this year is delighting people. You’ll build on past work to create what no one is expecting. You’ll be paid well for taking on some unusual responsibilities. Fun dates and travel will be summer highlights. Your empathy and compassion attract quality people. Together, you’ll make a difference in the world. Sagittarius and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 44, 8, 18 and 20.
