Happy birthday (June 28): Once you set your intention, your story flows with all the qualities you value in a good tale: continuity, style, poetry and fascinating characters entangled in interesting ways with you at the center of it all.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): It takes an amazingly long time to complete a project you happen to be ignoring. Once you get busy on it, the energy will come.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Strange visions will unfold as you sleep, but the best ones happen while you're awake. Sharing dreams of either sort can be tricky. Telling a journal or no one at all will be better than risking invalidation.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): It takes time and conscious effort to cultivate a support system, but it's well worth the work.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): People who want your attention may try to convince you that you owe them. False. You get to choose how you engage with the world.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Relationships get complicated, probably because they also get honest. You don't have to sort through it all in one night. It's better to act reasonably than to react emotionally.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Just because you can solve what the others can't doesn't mean you should, at least not right away. Pay attention to the power dynamics. This solution of yours is an ace up the sleeve.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Whether you're stuck in a rut or a trap, the answer is the same: wiggle. Wiggling will either show you where you're pinned or liberate you without you even needing to know. Move however you can; you'll get free.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You'll admit what you don't know and as a result become educated, leaving those who think they already know everything at a disadvantage. The intellectual delight of expertise is only made possible through humility.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The mind doesn't generate every idea. It gets many of them from the voice and the body. You often don't know what you think until you start communicating. Your next good idea will be born in a conversation or journal.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It takes time to save time. The moments you spend prioritizing and ordering your efforts will ultimately give you back an hour or two. Efficiency is your strength and may soon be your wealth.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Ideally, the answers you seek will connect you with a power source that is already inside you. Beware of those who would rather you believe that answers can only be found through them, as this is the red flag of controlling people.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A book can't change the world. It's a lump of paper and ink that can't even pour you a cup of coffee. But a person who acts on an idea can change everything. The concepts need you. You'll serve them well today.
The hearth burns brighter when the moon wears her darkest gown — or, in the case of the Cancer new moon, apron. It’s a lunar domestic moment to rival spring’s notion of cleaning. Make the home cozy and beautiful, and moods follow suit. The long retrograde of Neptune begins now, too, suggesting retro styles will be especially dreamy.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Kathy Bates will star in the film version of the beloved Judy Blume novel “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.” The Academy Award-winning Cancer was born when Mercury was in sharp-witted Gemini. Mars in Virgo is about as hardworking as they come. Saturn, the lessons planet, in Leo, the sign of show business, promises profound life lessons learned and given through the medium entertainment.
