Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) If you are in the middle of a romantic courtship, this is going to be a meaningful week. Tuesday is like a duet between you and you-know-who, and Wednesday is suited for deep communication. Try to go out and experience what the world has to offer you and your special someone Thursday and Friday. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) An opponent may be a stronger force than you Monday, but this is not an arm-wrestling competition. Ceding a minor victory at this point may be the key to getting what you want at a later date. Boldness and bravery are key Tuesday as well. But in all your valiance, don’t ignore the fine print this week. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You and your best friend are attached to each other — at least by phone — at the start of the week. Communication is key. How else are you going to get everything done? You see the value in having a trusted pal, and so does your trusted pal. By Wednesday, though, you start wondering if less talk and more action is in order. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) On Monday, you’re dreaming of the woods. You may not be able to dart off into a forest any time soon, but do your best to spend some time in an environment that in some way relaxes you. By Wednesday, you will likely feel the opposite of relaxed as flighty people zip all around you. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) You are not one to spend a lot of time looking back, but at the start of the week your head is in the history books. Something tells you there are relevant lessons for you somewhere in the past — and you’re right. Someone who shares your interest in history might turn into a romantic interest overnight. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) Love and beauty abound at the beginning of the week. If you’re single, this energy may manifest itself in a few days of incredible creativity. Creativity will carry you through the week, actually, although Wednesday and Thursday are days of business and mutability. This weekend will be barrels of fun. Aries (March 21-April 20) It’s good to exercise patience as the week begins. That said, by Wednesday, you’ll be rushing all around. People who send you long, gushing emails will get a one-sentence response. Friends or co-workers who want an in-depth discussion of the details Thursday will have to wait for a better day. Parents and relatives are a prominent part of your weekend. Taurus (April 21-May 21) Energy levels are high Monday, and you and your friends are tighter than ever. You’ve been longing for romance lately, and on Tuesday you’re going to be treated to some. The second half of the week finds you distracted and feeling out of character. Avoid rash decisions. Friday is a good day to communicate with someone on an emotional level. Gemini (May 22-June 21) The obstacle that plops down in your path Monday may shake you up a bit, but stay the course. Focus. You knew there would be obstacles, but they’re just part of the fun. By Wednesday, you’re ready to join in discussions. Thursday and Friday find you feeling better and more ready for the future than you’ve been in a while. Cancer (June 22-July 22) You are deliriously happy around other people these days. A social dinner Tuesday is not a bad idea. Wednesday and Thursday, you have your sights set on wilder, more ambitious ways of spending your time. You are in the mood for adventure; you are in the mood to buck authority. This weekend is about new beginnings. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) As much as you’d like to be spending the day in the park, Monday is all about work: your career, your standing — stuff like that. Tuesday you feel like something of a celebrity, as people around you lavish you with praise. Creative brainstorming figures into your day Wednesday, and there’s plenty of time for socializing Thursday and Friday. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) Your head opens up Monday, and you start thinking improbably about philosophy. On Tuesday, these impulses graduate into outright soul-searching. Research and analysis suddenly seem fun to you Wednesday, and a logic puzzle captures your imagination. Thursday and Friday have the potential to be either stellar or stifling, depending on how you play your hand. |
