Horoscopes: Wednesday, September 15, 2021

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Today brings you an abundance of original ideas. Regardless of how good they are, because of the speed by which they pour in, they will be quickly forgotten unless you capture, contain and catalog them.         

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re a natural leader and you’ll shine with executive ability, which is to say you’re good at running the show. You can be tough, tender, warm or direct as you adapt to the show you’re running.        

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Misreading a situation can cause minor mistakes or major pain. You can avoid any and all trouble with this by paying close attention, and then paying attention from a distance as your awareness grows with every new angle on it.         

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your world is saturated with an overabundance of opinions. Your restraint on the matter will lead to serenity. It will come as a relief to hear to share fewer opinions, and to find that you have fewer of them to share.        

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a choice about how to encourage follow-through with the actions that will net a desired result. You can motivate through fear or inspiration. Fear is faster. Inspiration is healthier and more pleasant.        

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even though you can’t change another person, as you change yourself, if the other person has the least bit of awareness and empathy, a countermove will be made to adapt to yours.      

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Life is the kind of teacher whose lectures seem to drift off-topic, but there’s magic in this. You’ll get a clue as to your most profitable move -- a sign from the natural world pointing your mind to an answer.        

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Life is a song. Sometimes you dance to it and sometimes you sing along, but right now, you’re in the mood to listen, learn and see what happens when others make the moves.        

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don’t have to accept what’s in your head as the truth. You can change your thought, pick a new one or create one from scratch. Whatever your mood, you are one thought away from lifting it.        

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Love’s display isn’t always a bouquet of romance or a glamorous foreign holiday. You’ll give your love in doses as small as a spoon, as diligent as washed a dish and as moving as a carpool.         

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wanting isn’t wrong or right. It probably can’t even be helped. While you can’t effectively command yourself to want what’s good for you, you can at least notice what you want and steer your desire toward the best option.        

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t have to resonate with everything you come across. There are some emotions that are unhealthy to steep in. Your empathetic skills are on point, including the ones that keep you from unhealthy empathy.        

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (SEPT. 15). You manage most areas of your life with a hands-on approach, mixing into what matters, unafraid of a little mess and sweat. Being extremely careful about what you delegate, you won’t miss out on golden details. You’ll feel loved. Your heart is open to receive it. You’ll join with others to improve what’s around you. Gemini and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 4, 44, 47 and 18.
