Aries
Keeping ties with irritating contacts is going to matter a lot in time because eventually the bad feelings will fade and there will be needs on both ends. Watch overspending in the next few weeks – an emergency could be on the horizon.

Taurus
A new schedule could make things easier – but you’ll have to readjust your thinking. Doing the hardest stuff first reduces a lot of anxiety, even though it won’t seem like it. Concentrating on good health is probably a step in the right direction.

Gemini
A move in the right direction causes some tension with those who are reluctant to change. Reliability counts for a lot. You can’t take it all onto your shoulders. Guilt is like a parasite – it will latch on and suck away all of your vitality.

Cancer
Keeping the ball rolling will prevent scrambling around in the end. A recent introduction or re-introduction gives you renewed hope for something profound to happen in the future. Who knows how things will go, but miracles bloom in abundance.

Leo
Do not fall off the face of the earth just because something doesn’t go your way. It won’t hurt if you ask a question that might not get the response you’re looking for. You are reaching out so that you may be secure one day. Think with a business head and a creative heart.

Virgo
A generous gift rubs some of you the wrong way – and you’ll struggle with ways to understand why. The weather brings up some troubling questions about outdoor plans. Make your calendar easy to understand so that you don’t get lost amid all of the activity.

Libra
Your family worries about being burdensome – but your elders also know best. And you will, sooner or later, have to accept that life is about self-sacrifice as much as it is about narcissistic pursuits. Give and take and you will find balance.

Scorpio
The hunt is won – what will be the prize? Wind your way through the maze and claim it. Too much time spent alone will lead to crazy thoughts. Get yourself out there among other human beings – that’s the only way to smooth out the rough edges.

Sagittarius
When someone offers to meddle in your business, do your best to make their suggestions feel welcome, unless they are insulting you outright. You’ll be called upon to navigate through the intentions of others. You’re a good judge of character all of a sudden.

Capricorn
This is a case of be careful what you wish for because it might come true. The wish gods are pesky little devils. They manage to fulfill the wish, but most of the time it comes when you least expect it and then you realize you were the one who put the order in. If you believe enough to wish, you must be ready to accept the result.

Aquarius
Fear of heights could be an obstacle in attaining a goal of yours. Standing your ground has helped greatly. You’ll be one to seek a brighter future and one to explore your options. Just remember how valuable you are and how much you bring to the party.

Pisces
Brace yourself for a big change upcoming. This is a good thing, however, and the only requirement is that you plan and prepare for the leaner times ahead. You will see different paths and once you tread on them they won’t seem so mysterious or frightening.
