March 20 – April 19

Your instincts and hunches are liable to get you into trouble, but if you discuss them with some friends you may find some valuable insights behind them. Getting high with your pals can be fun, but do you want the buzz or the insights?

April 20 – May 20

Conflicts between your political ideals and your career goals may suddenly become obvious and very uncomfortable. Re-examine both, but this is the time for reflection, not action. Stick to your usual slow-and-careful mode. Blow off steam with friends, not at work!

May 21 – June 20

Nobody can be right all the time, but the best way to be right more often is to admit forthrightly when you’re wrong. Ideals and aesthetics are clouding your facts and logic. Skip the arguments and go to an art show!

June 21 – July 22

Your erotic dreams can come true, but will you be fully awake when they do? Drugs and booze can open up too many bad possibilities right along with the delicious ones. Keep a clear head and prophylaxis handy, the better to enjoy the fun!

July 23 – August 22

Sexual problems with your partner (or in the way you use sex to find one) are suddenly painfully apparent. You can work it out with some willingness to adapt. Don’t lose track of your needs in your eagerness to satisfy your darling.

August 23 – September 22

Inspired notions at work will run into opposition. Resist the temptation to argue, and see how your opponent’s critique can improve your inspiration. None of it is likely to work anyway, but out of the wreckage can come better ideas later.

September 23 – October 22

Accidents are more likely now, especially sporting accidents, and that includes “bedroom sports.” Try to apply your creative energy in new directions, but still be careful with the glue gun and stapler!

October 23 – November 21

Artistic or playful self-expression can reveal family secrets you’ve long forgotten or overlooked. That revelation may not be comfortable, but facing it and getting past it can be very liberating.

November 22 – December 20

Conversations with your family of origin, or trying to figure out community politics, can cause confusion. Arguments over “right” and “wrong” will only explode in your face. Try an empathetic approach, and forget logic for now.

December 21 – January 19

Everybody’s worried about money these days. Avoid useless fretting and look at the more constructive steps you can take. Any ideas you have now probably are crazy, but may lead to more sensible thoughts later.

January 20 – February 18

Still struggling with those shopaholic impulses? There is a 12-step program for that. Meditation may be a better answer. Exercise is also good. Go swimming, running, hiking, or biking, but be very careful of traffic!

February 19 – March 19

Acting on sudden impulses is sure to get you into trouble. The inspirations sparking those disastrous urges can also be seeds of reflection. You may not be able to restrain yourself entirely, but at least try to think twice before acting.
