Horoscope: April 7

Aries (March 21-April 19): Your agenda may not be so easily sold on its own. But when you piggyback your plan with one that is already positioned to succeed, you’ll have a smash hit.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): The same guidelines that were put in place to keep order and create safety are stifling your freedom and limiting your joy. Investigate whether rules can be broken or bent to suit you.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You send all the right signals so that others come close when you need them to hear and see you and stay far away when you prefer to be alone.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): The initial impression someone made years ago is affecting the way you think of this person today. But something will change all of that.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You are a natural choice to lead the group. And yet you may not feel that you want the extra responsibility. You’ll find a way to lead without being the official leader.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll influence those who see you as serious and knowledgeable. To help this image along, move more slowly than everyone else.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Though you look forward to downtime when you can recharge your energy, you have a ways to go. Take short breaks instead of long ones.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): People open up around you. What you learn because of this may be surprising or even shocking.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Prepare for a meeting as though you are practicing for a game. Rehearse what you’ll say. Guess how the other person will react.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When someone new enters your realm, you’ll initiate a connection. You’ll teach good manners to an ill-mannered world.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You may start out less confident than you could be. With a little extra attention to your image, you’ll come across better than you thought you could.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Your many responsibilities will require you to be outgoing. Your heart remains light, even as you deliver a substantial message.

Today’s birthday (April 7): Your eye-on-the-prize mentality will serve you well. Stay on track, and you will soon accomplish what you set out to do. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 12, 41, 25 and 3.
