Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) Start planning for the future Monday. No sense in expecting things to take care of themselves. If you sit down and write out your goals, that will make them that much more tangible. And once your goals are tangible, you’ll be able to create a plan of action, especially Wednesday and Thursday. This weekend, someone in your family will need a favor. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) On Monday, you’re feeling great. You have a lot of energy and clarity and you finally know where you’re going. On Tuesday, your friends are all out of sorts. Maybe you can use your own clear-headedness to help them out. This weekend, you’ll have the opportunity to turn your thoughts back to the things that really matter to you. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) You can only help so many people at once. Still, you’re feeling a tad superheroic, and there’s a chance you’ll be able to pull off a couple of superhero-worthy stunts Monday. But Tuesday or Wednesday, you’re going to start feeling drained. Spend Thursday and Friday restoring your energy and doing stuff you really love to do. Aries (March 21-April 20) On Monday, all that hard work will start to pay off. For a while there it seemed like nothing was ever going to get done, but by sheer force of will you have turned a couple of lemons into the tastiest lemonade. You have this amazing ability to make the realization of your goals seem inevitable, and this is especially true Wednesday and Thursday. Taurus (April 21-May 21) At the start of the week, you encounter one snag you weren’t expecting. It never ceases to amaze you how loony people can be. So, what’s your plan? By midweek, you wisely figure that your best bet is to kill them with kindness. Figure out what it is this person really wants — adoration? attention? — and then try to give that to them without actually giving in. Gemini (May 22-June 21) You’re lost in your head Monday. A couple of big ideas are churning around in your brain, and rather than engaging in idle chitchat you’re most likely going to decide to turn a little inward and let yourself daydream through midweek. That’s perfectly okay. Explain to others that it’s not personal: You just have a couple of things on your mind. Cancer (June 22-July 22) On Monday, you have one idea about how you want this to go, while this other person has another. There’s no way to tell, at this stage, who’s right. Don’t jump to any conclusions, especially midweek. You both have good intentions. Go for a long walk Friday or Saturday. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You know that old saying about how if you love something you should let it go. There’s a lot of truth to that, especially at the start of the week. Lately you’ve been clinging desperately to things that you just shouldn’t have in your life. If they are meant to be, they will stay with you no matter what happens. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) As your life continues to change, your routines need to change, too. Maybe you should start waking up earlier. Maybe you should take more risks and be less rigid in your ideas about others. Maybe you just need a new file cabinet to keep your incoming mail organized. Whatever it is, be open to your own evolution, especially Wednesday and Thursday. Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) At the week’s start, you get what you’ve been waiting for: Someone to spend the day with, laughing and cavorting. Life is suddenly fun again. This is going to be a roller coaster of a week, especially Wednesday. Lots of good stuff, plus a couple of boring stretches of time tossed into the mix. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) On Monday, you have tons of questions: What’s going on at home? Why does everything suddenly seem so chaotic? And — the bigger question — does it have anything to do with you? If at all possible, don’t involve yourself in the madness. Let the others hammer out a solution. You have better things to do. Wednesday and Thursday are going to be top-notch days, full of creative games and hilarious situations. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) How are you feeling? What’s going on in your head? Get it off your chest at the start of the week. At the very least, put it all in an email to a good friend and send it off. It will feel so great to know there is someone else in the world who knows what’s really going on. The weekend will be particularly bright. |
