Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) Keep your head down as the week begins. Events will conspire to disrupt your routine, but your easygoing nature can steer you clear. Midweek, others will look to you to take the lead, so be generous with your ideas and your optimistic attitude. Look for opportunities to hang out with friends later this week. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) As the week begins, don’t be bashful about going after what you want. Midweek, you need to curb your ego if you want to avoid getting entangled in an unwelcome power struggle. Later this week, spend time with good friends. Relax and let your subconscious help you work through a thorny problem this weekend. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Follow your inquisitive mood as the week begins, even if it means asking tough questions. Monday begins with you digging in deep and looking for answers, but by Monday evening — and on through Wednesday — you’ll be back to your freewheeling, happy-go-lucky self. Luck is on your side and you should take every attractive risk that comes along. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) There’s change in the air as the week begins. Watch out for new — and challenging — ideas Monday. Even if others overreact, though, don’t take any of the resulting debate personally. Midweek, emotions could keep running high. You’ll need to summon up your best diplomatic skills to mediate. Later this week, your extraordinary planning skills and command of the facts will earn you applause. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) Everything might not be going your way Monday, but take a deep breath and realize this is just a phase.

Later this week, you’ll need to take extra care in dealing with details and competing agendas. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) Celebrate the start of your week by creating something new. Your week could get more difficult later, as complicating details threaten to overwhelm. If you can keep your head down, though, you can resist getting swept up in the demands — and dramas — of others. Later this week, jump into action and don’t worry about having all the facts. Aries (March 21-April 20) Don’t hold back as the week begins. On Monday, you should follow the urge to let others know how you’re feeling. That emotional clearing could leave you feeling exceptionally energetic. Use this boost in creativity and competitiveness to mix things up and make things happen. Later this week, you might feel overwhelmed by details. Taurus (April 21-May 21) Take a risk as the week begins, especially in romance. In any social situation, though, you can count on being rewarded for your daring Monday. Midweek, you’ll need to curb your more cantankerous side. Others might try to draw you into ego battles and power struggles, but a little diplomacy can go a long way. Gemini (May 22-June 21) Conflicting demands will make it difficult to be flexible Monday. The situation will lighten up midweek, as you find yourself the center of attention, surrounded by like-minded friends who want to have fun debating heady ideas. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, you’ll need to focus on life’s smaller details. Cancer (June 22-July 22) Expect your week to begin on an enthusiastic, energetic note. You’ll have no shortage of drive or direction Monday and others will pitch in to help you accomplish anything you put your mind to. Don’t be bashful about taking risks midweek. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, see to the details and focus on accomplishing smaller tasks. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You’re feeling exceptionally generous with your affection and attention as the week begins and that’s a good thing. Your warmth and earnestness could help others accomplish a lot Monday and you can expect to receive that same support returned to you in the days ahead. Midweek, you’re the center of attention and no effort of yours will go unaided. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) Start your week off by organizing something social and fun.
