Details you couldn’t possibly plan fall right into place.

Aries (March 21-April 19) Compliments are coming. Just smile and say thanks. Inwardly you may feel very far from your goal, but that’s not what matters here. Honor those who notice you and the support will keep coming.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) In your beautiful mind, you’ll hold contradictory truths at once. Something can be beautiful and flawed, painful and meaningful. Your mind resists easy sorting, preferring a wider frame where contradictions are allowed to breathe.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) You can be honest and direct, and no one is the least bit withholding or offended. In fact, they hardly notice. They’ll tell you what you want to know before they even have time to give it a second thought. It’s because you’re breezy. Your energy feels light and safe.

Cancer (June 22-July 22) You ask questions that don’t have tidy answers, so they don’t end the conversation; they open it. Curiosity is a kind of lantern you carry, illuminating corners, giving you the confidence to continue with a little more information in every step.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) It will be so much easier to wrap up unfinished business when you involve others. With a partner or group, you’ll make quick work of it and have a little fun, too. And if there’s music involved, it’s practically a party.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your talent for lifting, supporting and teaching comes back into play today. Even when you’re in a position to correct someone or deliver less-than-pleasant news, you’ll do it with a light touch and a positive spin.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You return to ideas over time and find they’ve changed because you have. The same thought meets a different version of you and reveals something new. Intelligence is highlighted in your relationship with thinking, not a single insight.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Each age group has its own kind of fun, but there are some kinds of fun that are universal, and today’s delights will bring together people of various generations for shared amusement and learning, too.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Sometimes placing your trust in the other person is the simplest, easiest thing to do. Today, there are items of small stakes on the table. It will save time to skip the analysis. There’s generosity in that.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You do believe that hard work brings success. It’s part of how you see yourself. Disciplined, dedicated and even, in some ways, relentless. Now someone you respect is telling you to work less, but more strategically, and they’re not wrong.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Being happy seems to be the one duty you can’t quite get around to. But can it really keep waiting like this? What if it gets tired of waiting and wanders off? Time to put it further up on the list. How about the top spot?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll be offered the conventional wisdom for today’s dilemma, and you can politely ignore it, because it doesn’t apply. Your situation is unique and the solution, which will come to you in a moment of inspiration, will be just as original.
