Aries (March 21-April 19) —

Today is a 9 — A career window opens. This could cause changes and complications. Actions get farther than words. There’s abundant money available today and tomorrow (if you work for it). Balance emotional with pragmatic factors. Call if you’re running late.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) —

Today is a 7 — Work in partnership, and be willing to take the lead today and tomorrow. Don’t get caught up in the words (miscommunications happen). Gossip leaves a bitter taste… avoid it. Sort out the common aim, and go for it.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) —

Today is an 8 — Get introspective, and find what you’re looking for. Retreat from the world today and tomorrow. Sometimes if you get quiet enough, the answer arises unbidden. Nurture health with rest, exercise and good food. Make a discovery by accident.

Today is an 8 — Today and tomorrow favor fun with friends. Put a family event on the schedule. Play in a group or community project, and contribute your piece of the puzzle. Find materials at home or nearby. Learn from an experienced tutor.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) —

Today is a 9 — Focus on your career today and tomorrow. Ask for what you need, and be patient… transmission breakdowns or slips in translation could warp the meaning. Repeat, and relax. Find multiple routes to your goal. Keep up momentum.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) —

Today is an 8 — Take a trip or explore a new scene. You don’t need to go far. Backyard journeys can be quite satisfying. Keep communications channels open, and expect some delays (especially with transportation or shipping). Saving is better than spending now.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) —

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) —

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) —

Today is an 8 — Take on more work, and earnings increase. Gather ideas and feedback. An important person is feeling generous. Take the student role. Put your heads together. A feisty argument could curtail travel. Relax at home. See a movie.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) —

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) —

Today is an 8 — Your heart’s at home and in the garden. Pare down to make more space with a cleaning or renovation project. In a disagreement about priorities, listen to the opposing view. Consider all possibilities. Allow everything to gel.
