HOROSCOPES

Moon Favors Fools

The Fool is prominently featured in the Tarot card deck and often pictured as a plucky youth carrying his belongings on a stick over his shoulder, a blossom in one hand and his head tilted up to the sun. He is oblivious to his footing and appears to be in mid-step off a precipice. The Leo moon looks kindly on fools. Should they plummet, they will make like a cat and land on their feet.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). People think work makes things happen, and it does, but playfulness can also do the trick today when you’re having the right kind of fun in the optimum circumstance. Test the waters first to see who’s game.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sometimes you doubt your ability to work a room, but all you have to do is talk to one person at a time. You’re charming. Every time you interact with others, you polish your gift with a new layer of experience.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your heart will speak to you as melody does -- on a primal level that moves you in a direction and into a mood. Though the heart’s dictates may not make practical sense, don’t let that stop you from following.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It is said that a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client, and a good dentist never pulls her own teeth. You’re well-qualified to take up your own cause, but just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you enjoy once or twice will start to get old when you’re on round 12. Keep changing things up. Under this moon, you’ll be sensitive to other people’s need for entertainment as well and you’re “on” when you need to be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your work will be complimented, and you’ll be praised for the effort you put into relationships too. And while it’s nice to hear appreciation, don’t take it to mean that you must perform to be loved. You’re also loved for just being you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Like an object in motion, once you get rolling you tend to stay in motion. This is why your morning routine is so crucial to your productivity. You’ll start off well and continue the trend.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). While there might be a way things usually occur, there are more ways they don’t. Most ideas about

what’s normal are constructs based on a very small slice of circumstances. If you want to do it differently, you’ll get your chance. Seize it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s not always appropriate or helpful to finish what you started, but it usually is. A lack of energy may speak to an open-ended issue. Once you go back and tie off the loop, you’ll get a surge of fresh motivation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What you own and are given will have no correlation to your value. To have a deep knowledge that your worthiness is intrinsic releases you from the need to impress anyone, or the fear that you won’t.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People are really listening to you today, which makes you want to be sure your message is accurate, engaging and on-point. What unfolds will add to your personal power. You’ll apply your influence to a meaningful aim.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The perfection of any situation will only nudge you toward the freedom of imperfection. Once you let yourself reveal a few flaws and vulnerabilities, you will liberate others to do the same.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 1). Welcome to your year of the golden touch. You’ll use it to turn trash into treasure, competitors into allies and outlandish ideas into profitable ones. You’ll also use it to beautify and organize your domestic life for a flow to better support your routines and relationships. More highlights: paying a low price for valuable education, an adventure in the natural world and team wins to fill the trophy shelf. Scorpio and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 7, 42, 18 and 33.
