Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) Try something new as your week begins. Your intellectual curiosity and natural friendliness should lead you to new people — and new experiences — on Monday. On Tuesday and Wednesday, expect to shift into lower gear, both emotionally and mentally. You might need some time to yourself right now to sort out your long-term goals and ambitions. On Thursday, Friday and the early part of Saturday, you’ll be back to your good ol’ gregarious self — and just in time, because friends and friends-to-be can’t get enough of your positive presence. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) Watch out for problems in a partnership as the week begins. You need to keep an eye out for conflicting details and demands on Monday — you’re the one who has to strike the balance. On Tuesday and Wednesday, don’t hesitate to stand up for yourself, especially in legal and financial matters. On Thursday, Friday and the first part of Saturday, count on having the odds in your favor. Aries (March 21-April 20) Cool your jets as the week begins — competitively speaking, that is. You need to put the proverbial ‘other guy’ first on Monday if you want to keep things copacetic. On Tuesday and Wednesday, expect to become lost in your own thoughts. You’ve got a lot on your mind right now, but a little opportune introversion could be just what you need. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, you’ll be at your adventurous, assertive best, ready for anything and first at the starting line. Taurus (April 21-May 21) Look for some unexpected fun in your routine as the week begins. Monday might seem dull and dreary, but count on friends and coworkers to come to the rescue. On Tuesday and Wednesday, moodiness might get the better of you if you’re not careful. Make sure you keep a lid on any overly intense emotions. Gemini (May 22-June 21) Follow-through is overrated as this week begins. You’ve got so much energy and creativity on Monday that you need to devote yourself to starting projects and initiating action. Let somebody else sort out the details later. On Tuesday and Wednesday, count on the action to slow down just a bit, but that’s only because you’re more interested in observing — and analyzing — than acting right now. Cancer (June 22-July 22) The start of your week might not go quite as smoothly as you’d like. Watch for conflict on Monday and use your natural empathy to help keep the peace. On Tuesday and Wednesday, expect an emotional storm front to roll in. While flaring passions can be a good thing, you’ll have a tough time making decisions. On Thursday, Friday and early Saturday, put yourself first for a change — a little selfishness could do you good. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) People will be falling all over themselves to agree with you as the week begins. You’ve got the charm on Monday to start a mass movement — or even just get a small but important project started. On Tuesday and Wednesday, look beneath the surface. You can trust your intuition to uncover other’s true motivations. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23) Expect an unusual surge of impulsiveness as the week begins. You’ll want to splash out extravagantly on Monday -- but don’t be surprised if you can’t decide exactly how or when. On Tuesday and Wednesday, give your curiosity free rein. That intellectual inquisitiveness can help you learn a lot from others right now. Resist the urge to rush ahead, even if slowing down seems risky. Later on Saturday and Sunday, your hard work will pay off in a surprising way. Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23) Every week should begin like this! You’re full of confidence and charm on Monday and people just can’t get enough of you. Flirt with abandon. On Tuesday and Wednesday, expect to feel some unusual stinginess. But you can put that financial focus to good use — take time out to reassess your long-term plans and budgets. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Don’t hesitate to kick around ideas as the week begins. You’ll find that you’re exceptionally philosophical and insightful on Monday, which is the perfect match for your introverted, introspective mood. On Tuesday and Wednesday, your magnetic personality will win you admiration and affection. Use that burst of popularity to your advantage. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You must be doing something right, because everybody loves you as the week begins. Make your desires known on Monday and don’t be surprised if others help you see those wishes fulfilled. On Tuesday and Wednesday, your usual easygoing nature might give way to moodiness if you’re not careful. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) Get something started as the week begins! You’re full of initiative and energy on Monday, so it’s a perfect time to kick off a new project. On Tuesday and Wednesday, you’ll have an unusual mastery of the details. Use this super-powered perspective to organize your priorities and lay out ambitious plans. Later on Saturday and Sunday, expect to get a lot done. |
