Aries — Today is a 7 — The pressure you’ve been under is easing. Relax and enjoy the view, as you guess what to watch for next. A sense of humor is key. Stick to simple work.
Cancer — Today is an 8 — Aim for high marks, as there’s a test coming up. Your willingness to learn new technology gives you an edge. Don’t launch until ready. Expand options.
Libra — Today is a 9 — You’re getting busier by the minute. Organization and optimism work together to bring you what you want. What if success is doing what you love? No complaining.
Capricorn — Today is a 7 — Passions are running hot, so communicate clearly to avoid misunderstandings. Your family helps you to move forward. Keep questioning, and you’ll get an answer.
Taurus — Today is an 8 — Use caution while others around you are impetuous. Something you thought wouldn’t work does. Seek funding. Trust love. Explore every lead. It’s basic.
Leo — Today is an 8 — Travel and new endeavors are favored with the Sun in Aries (doublecheck schedules, with Mercury’s retrograde). Keep a solid financial plan, and take a familiar road.
Scorpio — Today is an 8 — Your creative wild side is an asset. Adding structure will give you the strength you need to move to the next level. Your intuition’s excellent.
Aquarius — Today is an 8 — Use the attention you’re attracting to gather supporters for your goals. Work together to improve the economy. Not everything goes according to plan.
Gemini — Today is an 8 — When organizing, only keep the very best, and give the rest away. Your partner provides an answer. Peace, quiet and stability rejuvenate. Share good food at home.
Virgo — Today is a 7 — With the Sun in Aries for the next month, get even more organized than usual, especially when it comes to finances. Replace something broken at home. Abundance beckons.
Sagittarius — Today is an 8 — You move the idea outside the box, and it has room to grow. Avoid a conflict in scheduling by checking it twice. Prepare more than you think necessary.
Pisces — Today is a 9 — Everything looks more promising now. You have new opportunities for income for the next four weeks, but don’t fall asleep on your laurels. Keep pedaling.
