ARIES (March 21-April 19):

You may have outgrown the change jar as a method of saving for a rainy day. It might be time to investigate more intentional and structured ways of saving up for your future. Nothing grows unless you have committed to nurturing it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20):

You could be comfortable with structure, but you might need to deal with confusion and adapt to changing circumstances. You can get past the challenging moments and regain your balance; you may even enjoy the shifting tides.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):

There’s a reason no one recommends the shortcut through the woods. Perhaps the long way around might help to prevent a case of poison ivy or turn out to be the shortest path after all. Talk to the experts before blazing your own trail.

CANCER (June 21-July 22):

It’s easy to get pulled in too many directions and ultimately end up concentrating on only one thing at a time. Figure out which tasks should be prioritized and use this knowledge to decide which essential parts come first.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):

Delegation isn’t a bad word. It may not be necessary to supervise every step. People know their tasks and responsibilities. If you spread the responsibility around, more could be accomplished in less time, and you can keep moving forward.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

There might be a method to your madness. Your technique of making new friends and acquaintances might not win recognition from a manners and etiquette expert, but they may certainly be effective. Make useful and inspiring contacts.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Don’t waste time thinking about what should’ve or could’ve happened since it won’t change the past. Life won’t give you a do-over so make the most of every opportunity. You can gain advantages and lessons from your experiences.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

Slow down enough to pay attention to what is going on. Trying to do too much, too fast, might make you miss important events. Be present in your own life so you can enjoy your achievements and meaningful moments.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

Every juggler learns that the more balls in the air, the easier it is to miss one. Rather than chasing all the balls you’ve dropped, consider working on keeping things simple so it might be easier to keep key projects in motion.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

All the demands of your time may have caught up with you. Learn to prioritize in order of importance. Since you can’t borrow minutes or hours from the calendar, you might need to delegate or give something up for peace of mind.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

Imagine seeing a situation in a different context. From the viewpoint of the observer, you might not be seen as the hero you think you are. You may get a better perspective if you step away and let the matter resolve itself on its own.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20):

It may have been easier to agree than to say no, which might have placed you in a tricky situation. Some people may be unhappy about change. It could be time to release some of the duties you’ve taken on which have become overwhelming.

IF OCTOBER 16 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

This week your charm and sincerity may shine brightly, possibly making this a time to put yourself out there by appearing in public, or meeting someone new who could enhance your best qualities. Your calculating attitude might make you extra money in November but could prevent you from achieving the happiness you seek. Your ability to meet like-minded and supportive people may be at a peak in December and your new connections could help you towards a better future. Late December and early January could be a time when major life changes can place you in a position to attract opportunities for advancement. You might have a better chance to succeed with your financial ambitions in late January and early February when your intelligence might feel amplified, and your strategies could become profitable.
