HOROSCOPES

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you hold the key to success right now, so everyone wants to be in your corner. Take things in stride and maintain your focus while accepting all the support.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, it is important that you streamline your workflow this week; otherwise, you may not meet the deadlines imposed upon you. Start implementing a new strategy.

GEMINI – May 22/Jun 21 This is the week to take the road less traveled, Gemini. Blaze your own trail, get out into the wilderness and possibly expand your horizons. A spontaneous idea like this can pay dividends.

CANCER – Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, someone in your social circle could be shielding the truth and it may frustrate you.

But you can’t come out and accuse this person without proof.

Step back for the time being.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 An important relationship could be coming to an end for you, Leo. You could try to salvage things, but you have to look at the bigger picture and determine if it is good to move on.

VIRGO – Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, you have been coasting along without a firm direction for too long at this point. While it may have been working for you, you will soon fare better with a more concrete plan.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 Be mindful of other people’s situations before you engage with them, Libra. What may be a good time for you will not necessarily be ideal for those around you.

SCORPIO – Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, someone in your life has proven worthy of more attention. Give this person a little extra love in the days to come, and direct your focus to having a good time.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Social activities seemingly bloom around you this week, Sagittarius. There could be so much going on that you don’t know where to get started.

Perhaps let friends lead the festivities.

CAPRICORN – Dec 22/Jan 20 Remember, Capricorn, others are not just listening to what you say, they are reading into your actions. Make sure you are genuine in both your words and gestures this week.

AQUARIUS – Jan 21/Feb 18 This week you may have to take the first step in rekindling an important relationship, Aquarius. Are you ready to be the catalyst?

PISCES – Feb 19/Mar 20 There is not much you can do about financial issues, Pisces.

Make an effort to start spending less, which may be the catalyst for a real examination of your budget.
