Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) The week is going to begin on a romantic note. You’re going to be completely distracted and overwhelmed, but it’ll feel great. Later in the week you’re going to be able to really indulge in this new romance, even if that simply means staring out the window and thinking about it for hours on end. Aries (March 21-April 20) All that hard work? It’s finally going to start to pay off Monday. The key to your recent successes has been perseverance. And your ability to communicate well with grumpy people. Your life is filled with a wide variety of characters, but you are one of those people who always knows how to smooth things over. Taurus (April 21-May 21) You are feeling good and your immediate neighborhood has never looked more beautiful. With your spirits up, you’re in the ideal mood to tackle this new challenge in your love life. A little problem-solving is in order, as well as a frank discussion about the future. Maybe you two are just rushing things. Whatever happens this week, communicate your feelings. Gemini (May 22-June 21) This is just another minor bump in the road. You’ve been dealing with minor bumps in the road all your life. Besides, the little detours that life sometimes forces you to take often lead to great things. People you wouldn’t have met otherwise, for example. You’re going to meet someone Wednesday who lets you know they’re really attracted to you. Cancer (June 22-July 22) A group of friends are organizing a dinner party this week, and even though it’s not exactly in your honor, it’s pretty clear that you are going to be the centerpiece of the night. The thing is, you have this ability to really bring people together. In an unofficial way, you’re sort of in charge of the group dynamic. Still, encourage everyone else to bring their own friends into the fold. Take a risk. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your career is all you can think about Monday. There’s a lot going on right now, and your reputation at work is at stake. Do this well and you will really impress everyone. The key is to be flexible but focused — a tricky balance, but you have a couple people you can rely on if things get nuts. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) Monday is all about making sure the little details are taken care of. Later in the week, when some of the finer points have been hammered out, you can take a step back and figure out what this all means in the grander scheme of things. The second half of the week, you’re going to be crazy busy with social obligations. Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) Love is coming your way this week, although not necessarily in the romantic sense. Expect to reconnect with a great friend Wednesday or Thursday — someone you haven’t had a really great conversation with in a long time. You are constantly calling everyone’s attention to the beauty of the outside world. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) This person has been by your side through thick and thin, and chances are they’re not going anywhere. This isn’t the end of the world. This is just a little snag, and the solution is probably going to require a little compromise on your part. Make sure they know that. A deep conversation is in order later this week. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You have all these big ideas, but you’re at a loss when it comes to the finer points in your plans. It’s time to start thinking about the details. It’s a lot to think about, but you have friends who’d be happy to help. And anyway, asking a friend for a hand might be a great way of reconnecting with them again. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) There are a couple things you really have to get done. Keep your head down and see them through and, in a couple days, you’ll be so happy to have them off your plate. Later in the week, someone you know is going to fly off the handle about a minor thing. The best way to respond? Hear them out. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) The more you look into your own family’s history, the more you find out about yourself. History is such an abstraction it can be hard to get a handle on, but it’s fascinating and eerily relevant. On Tuesday or Wednesday, an intellectual conversation with someone is going to take an unexpectedly romantic turn. If you’re single, go for it. |
