Gemini (May 22-June 21) Juggling a ridiculous number of details — from shopping lists to guest lists to quarterly budgets — is kind of your specialty. That’s a good thing, because you’ll need all your mental dexterity as the week begins. Avoid infighting over logistics and you’ll manage to get an amazing amount done. Cancer (June 22-July 22) Expect to explode out of the gate as the week begins! You’re full of ideas and energy right now, and others will look to you to set the pace. Your intuition should also prove spot on the first few days of this week, so set goals and be bold going after them. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) As the week begins, your head is up in the clouds again. Use this burst of day-dreamy intuition to come up with something truly new — and don’t forget to include others in the big plan. By Thursday, all that creativity should crest into an overpowering wave. Ride that momentum into the weekend — Thursday and Friday night see you at your confident, charismatic best, commanding the spotlight but generously sharing stage. This weekend, take advantage of some unusual (and unexpected) introversion to tend to more mundane matters, like bills and errands. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) The beginning of this week plays straight to your strengths — you’ll have no problem getting everything organized and whipping your world into shape. Friends will gladly pitch in and give you a hand. By Thursday and Friday, you might start to feel overwhelmed by all the madcap action swirling around you, but just take a deep breath. Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) You might have a hard time sorting out fact from fiction as the week begins, but just try to be patient. A little duality — think of it as poetic ambiguity, maybe — can be a good thing sometimes, so long as you’re willing to relax and just let things happen. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Set big, ambitious goals as the week begins, because you’ll have no trouble getting exactly what you want — provided you’re willing to go after it. That sense of purpose and drive should also lead you into deep and rewarding conversations. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Don’t count on smooth sailing as the week begins! You’re in for some turbulent waters — both mental and emotional — and you’ll need to keep your hands on the till if you hope to steer a steady course. Nautical metaphors continue to apply as the week progresses, but by Thursday and Friday your troubled voyage will become a lucky, luxury cruise. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) You’re almost absurdly able to take care of everything as the week begins. Life will throw crazy new people and problems your way, but with your levelheaded patience you can handle each of them with ease. By Thursday or Friday, you might have a more difficult time juggling details and distractions, but just keep that trademark calm. If you overreact, you won’t get anywhere. This weekend, make big plans and follow through with them. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) You might get frustrated early in the week, because your easygoing charm and friendliness might not be quite enough to get people on your side. Others could overreact to situations in unexpected ways, and you’ll have trouble smoothing things out and keeping the peace. Just try to let it go, though — this is only a phase, and over-thinking won’t help anyone. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) Get ready for something new as the week begins. Whether it’s a new project or a new romantic prospect, creativity and novel experiences are the name of the game. Expect to be energized and elated by all the action. Aries (March 21-April 20) Ready to blow your top? Take it easy! You need to find a constructive outlet for that emotional agitation as the week begins. Look to help on the home front to get you through this bumpy patch. Now is a great time to distract yourself with familial obligations and doing the right thing. Taurus (April 21-May 21) Don’t hold back! You might have trouble revealing your feelings at times — what with you being the strong, reliable type and all — but you shouldn’t hesitate to confide in friends as the week begins. They’re more ready to help than you might imagine — and asking for some friendly assistance will only strengthen those important bonds. On Thursday and Friday, make sure your tenacity isn’t interpreted as stubbornness. Others could be looking for any stupid reason to start a fight, but you’re better off taking the high road. |
