ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may feel sympathetic to someone’s plight but try not to indulge in pity. When you see strength in people, you help them see strong parts of themselves.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you undervalue your contribution, then you could get into a situation in that you do and give more than is sustainable for you. That’s a recipe for resentment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Small gestures often mean more than anyone realizes. There are exchanges that occurred years ago that you still think about. Your mind is a beautiful mystery.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll build up the people around you. It’s different for everyone. You have to feel out each situation as a standalone, and this is why you’re excellent at relationships. You know how much work they really are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You can afford to be honest and direct. Some cannot do this without the requisite amount of charm. Some have too much baggage to do it without causing harm with the impact. Not you. You’re light today. Just say what you mean.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Opportunities will come to you in the form of complaints. Wherever there is an unhappy person, there is a chance at providing something lucrative or healing.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You take nothing and no one for granted. Unlike most people, you don’t have to lose something in order to recognize the value of it. You realize what you have, and you do what it takes to keep it perfectly intact.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The thing about peace is that it can’t be peace all the time or it wouldn’t be peace. Peace, like all things, needs a contrast. Is this any comfort, knowing that times of disharmony help you spot peace when it comes?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People who are actively on their way to other places do not have the capacity to sit and enjoy one another, which is the glory of being a passenger and the magic of road trips and airplane rides. Someday.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The Snow Patrol song asks, “What if this all the love you ever get?” Though you can be assured that it’s not, posing the question may make you dig deeper.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It appears an agreement you made is turning into a larger responsibility than you bargained for? Stand up for yourself. Show that you know your own value.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s helpers around and the job gets done. With good communication, all goes well. And if there’s not, then it still might go well, but who’s going to know?
