ARIES (March 21-April 19). You don’t know how great you are at a thing until you see the level at which the average novice is working. It’ll benefit you to test your skills in a public setting.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you’re stuck, questions like “why does this matter?” or “what’s important about this?” will bring you past the symptoms and right to the root issue.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re certain that if you can just stick to a certain behavior, you’ll get what you want. Training yourself will be similar to training other creatures; different rewards and deterrents, same principle.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Where does the joy come from? “Within” gets the most votes from people with semi-charmed lives. Of course, it’s easier to find the joy-well “within” when the environment “without” supports emotional and physical needs.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your hunches are eerily accurate, but those who have something to hide will try to make you doubt them. Think of this as a game and it becomes really fun for you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Laughter is the way to unity, fun and a generally warm feeling. It’s a little painful when the joke doesn’t land, but keep trying because it’s worth it. If it were easy, everyone would be funny.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s an element of randomness that’s made its way into your consciousness and is seeming not so random after all. Find patterns. You’ll soon break the code.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The extraordinary moon could provide you with an extra nudge needed to break your own rules. If it matters, put enforcements in place. If it doesn’t, have fun.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be invited to compete. This is an honor, as it means that you’re seen as a worthy opponent. Accepting this invitation is optional, and hopefully you’ll enjoy the implied compliment either way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re so comfortable with those who respond warmly and predictably to you that you wonder why you’re around those who are difficult to harmonize with.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a full-on improvisational challenge. The beauty is, you don’t have to come up with crazy moves. It’s just listening intently and responding honestly.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re awesome inside and out. So stop noting what you want to change about yourself and just take a moment to observe the glory of what’s there. See it in the mirror; see it in your soul.
