You'll lead with heart, uniqueness and a spark of whimsy that brings scattered fragments of life together in a gorgeous picture.
Aries (March 21-April 19) To be alive is different than to feel alive. Make a plan to put yourself in the path of this feeling very soon.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) It's the practical fixes that improve things. For instance, just a few minutes in sunshine and nature will restore vitality.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Silence isn't necessarily golden today. Don't mistake neutrality or lack of resistance for active support.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) If knowledge is the bread of life, then action is the meat of the sandwich.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) There's always an upside, and you're the one who sees it. Like a toddler who enjoys the box more than the toy, so optimistic is your lens that you may experience a circumstance as "all up" even when others around you see something else.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) It feels like pressing the crosswalk button to a sign that will light up the same whether it's touched it or not.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) It's OK to begin your mission for superficial reasons. Along the way, you'll discover deeper reasons to continue. In time, your internal motivation will become stronger than any external promise of reward.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) If the problem is likely to expand, you address it while it's small. But you don't hand every inconvenience a megaphone. Half the battle is refusing to make a five-minute problem into an all-day one.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) If they want to help, let them. If you give too much and don't let anyone give back, people will be robbed of the pleasure of completing the circle of reciprocity.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You can benefit from relationships that are unbalanced, but if this is the norm, you're likely to get burned out by the constant work of replenishing what's been drained from you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Talk about what's been on your mind, but be thoughtful about who you share with. Everyone has a bias. Those who love you are the most biased. A perfect stranger or experienced professional will have a helpful point of view.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You know you've forgiven someone when their name stops changing your mood. You know you're over the pain when your mind stops defaulting to what caused it.
Meditation
"I tell you, No: but, except you repent, you shall all likewise perish."

We must turn away from sin if we are going to follow Jesus to Heaven.
