Horoscopes

ARIES (March 21-April 19): If you push too hard, the world might push back. This is not a good time to implement key initiatives because you might be only acting in an effort to buck the system or to prove your independence.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Never stand up in a boat and call attention to yourself when the sea is rough. There could be some heavy-duty arguments or controversies going on in the workplace. Steer clear of sudden disputes.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Maintain a fragile balance as you walk the tightrope of relationships. Your extra energy can be used to transform your surroundings. You may see ways to make improvements within the home or family.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Acclimatize to minor changes. Whatever you deem to be rock solid now could wash away like sand along the shoreline later. It might be wise to mirror someone else’s attitudes to achieve harmony.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Even if your heart says yes, wait for better timing to make an important promise or proposal. Sudden emergencies or unexpected contentiousness may force you into some intense last-minute maneuverings.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It’s getting better all the time. You are feeling more confident and able to fix whatever is wrong with aplomb. You might give the impression that you are more accomplished than you really are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Breaking with tradition may break the bank. Your favorite companions might disapprove of new fangled ideas, or of making changes, but that needn’t hold you back. Form connections through networking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Cannily consider contradictions. Blend opposite viewpoints like paint in a bucket until they are one. It might be time to think things through dispassionately or to use logic instead of emotion.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can be aware of flaws in the system without making them an area of contention. Difficulties could be brought to your attention. If you know what is wrong, you can take steps to improve it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Seek only the best and highest. Kind words and some gentle persuasion will fasten the knots of affection more securely than a tough attitude. Keep your cash in your wallet for the next few days.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can get more than a paper cut if you handle the competitive edge. The desire to make drastic changes may not be based on logical reasoning, but on a desire to outdo someone else.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Meticulousness is next to godliness. Deal with problems that arise like the rugged campaigner that you wish to be. If you face an obstacle, take the time to clear it away rather than simply plowing through it.
