ARIES — If you’re caught between the past and the future, choose the future. Both seem compelling, though there’s a difference worth responding to. Yes, it’s in your nature to honor tradition, and at the moment that means the time-honored need for progress. The line between going backward and forward may at times seem thin, but it will be clearer if you are true to yourself.

TAURUS — Nothing can stop you. That is almost always true of those born under your birth sign, though you are now working some hot, passionate mojo. You might feel like you’ve got some supernatural power on your side. Here is a clue. You will be amazed to discover that what at first seems self-serving actually supports everyone else, and affirms the greatest good for all concerned.

GEMINI — Don’t let anyone tell you that you cannot eat your cake and still have it; this month you are the master of seeming contradictions. In fact, the more perplexing or impossible any situation seems, the more fun you can have, and the more useful it will be. Your charm will be running at an all-time high. Use it freely, including your award-winning sense of humor.

CANCER — Experiment, experiment, experiment. That is life at its best. You are someone who takes initiative any day of the year, though now you get to immerse yourself in some intriguing mysteries that will require a quest for adventure and a thirst for the unknown. The fact that nothing is certain or guaranteed is your best friend. That will compel you to keep your mind wide open.

LEO — You will have an opportunity this month to stand up for what you believe in. This may mean advocating for someone who cannot speak for themselves, or who lacks the strength to do so. What is so beautiful is how much you will both benefit. For you and for them, this will feel like a random stroke of luck. Really, it’s part of the grand cosmic plan.

VIRGO — Any change in your professional plans or even a seeming setback will work to your benefit, or rather, you can work it to your advantage. Yet you will need to use your intelligence and your sense of timing to take advantage of a delay or reversal. Your power lies in your patience, in staying informed and knowing what your agenda is. Bide your time. Your moment will come.

LIBRA — You can resolve a financial issue using the power of technology. This may involve digging up some hidden information, uncovering a concealed flaw in your plans or discovering an unusual opportunity. Yet no matter what advantage you may gain, never forget that the game of life is often won by those who understand that psychology rules the human dimension. To have insight is to have foresight.

SCORPIO — To feel is human. To be imperfect is human. To question yourself keeps you in contact with your humanity. Yet questioning cannot be a way of life; at a certain point you must decide you know enough to step forward, and make peace with the fact that there are no guarantees. If you have one God-given gift, it’s your ability to rise boldly to any occasion.

SAGITTARIUS — You may have to look toward the distant past to understand your quest for emotional healing. There will be important clues in understanding what certain older relatives or ancestors went through. Know one thing: they are cheering you on. They want nothing more than to see you thriving and successful. They endured certain harsh realities of life so that you may be free from them.

CAPRICORN — You’re the driving force behind a major project or creative task. It’s the kind of thing that most people would say is impossible, especially on such a short deadline. For you, it’s a challenge on the level of sport, and you are ready to play. That is the spirit — your love of the game, and getting lost in your work so that you can find yourself there.

AQUARIUS — You know something that others do not, which gives you power that they don’t know about yet. However, I suggest you keep this up your sleeve. Listen carefully and think logically as the discussion progresses. Wait until all other options are exhausted and then reveal what you know. Be humble, and perhaps seem a little uncertain as you make your suggestion. True brilliance is modest.

PISCES — If your life seems like it’s been more work than rewards lately, you have something to look forward to. You know you are persistent, and yet you may secretly suspect that your low-key drive and determination don’t get you as much as they should. Just when you least expect it, a door opens and something truly unusual happens. Success feeds on itself, so take full advantage of your gains.
