The full moon aligns with Neptune — the oceanic ruler. Vivid visions are submarine earthquakes causing waves of emotion that are excellent for surfing and likely to bring down anyone standing on the shore. Don’t underestimate the power of an image in the mind. Think it enough times and it imprints as a memory. The equinox turns us into futurists. If you knew it would come to fruition, what would you call forth for you and yours?
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your high self-esteem doesn’t mean you think others are less valuable than you. It only means you know what you can trust yourself to do. This week, you are more powerful than you realize. Just by showing up and doing your best, you contribute to the rising tide that carries all ships.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You see into a future that others are ignoring. You correctly sense that it’s time to bring greater intentionality and dedication to a matter. This is even more urgent than it seems. The change you make will positively affect many. And if you don’t make it, many more will be adversely affected.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your cosmic gift of the week is an improved ability to delay gratification. You’ll think before acting and switch quickly from short-term thinking to long-range vision of possible consequences and benefits. This is no small talent. You will be the lighthouse that keeps others on course and away from dangerous rocky shores.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your emotions are as accessible as liquid from the tap this week. You have an uncanny knack for turning them up or dialing them down at will. What you don’t have, however, is the ability to choose what flows from this tap. Its connections are mysterious and deep. There’s no such thing as an incorrect feeling.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You want to give a pure part of yourself, but it’s a tricky thing to pull off. Self-consciousness sets in, which ruins the effect. You can’t will this awareness away, but you can practice and get comfortable enough for insecurities to melt off. The more immersed in the present you are, the less self-conscious you’ll be.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The ones familiar with a certain kind of work know what it entails. Those who are naive on the matter will make unreasonable demands. It’s nothing to take offense at. If they are willing to learn, educate them. If they are not, cut your losses. What you give is too valuable to waste on immature prospects.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will see what you expect to see, which makes it harder to see anything new. Even the new views, colored by what was advertised, are seen through eyes that have witnessed them already. For this reason, it is of utmost importance to go where you haven’t been and know very little about.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Sometimes, trying to be in the moment actually ruins your chances of achieving it. The hyperfocus on having the now experience forces presence out of the way, clouding the mind with questions like “Am I doing it right?” and “Is this it?” Breathe the moment in; breathe out your requirements of it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Miscalculations will be costly, so it’s important to get the math right the first time around. Double-check the address before you leave the house. Ask about hidden costs and things like delivery, tax and insurance. Most snags are avoidable, and your spirit of research and inquiry will bring benefits beyond financial.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Collaborations with people who understand how to collaborate will be golden. Trying to build with those who don’t observe good sportsmanship will still be better than going it alone, if only for the chance to favorably influence others. Lessons in teamwork are life-changing regardless of the result.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Plenty of people around you are reaping the benefits of the problem-solving and other work you do with your unique, marvelous brain. You deserve more credit than you get for this. At the very least, you should be giving yourself attention, care and resources to keep the mental energy flowing strong.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Since no one thrives alone, the skills that bond you with others are crucial to your prospering. Your accurate self-awareness shines among your many talents. The ability to understand yourself is at the core of this week’s success and will be the reason for your advancement in a social, economic or professional setting.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: In keeping with your human status, there is a gap between how you see yourself and how others see you. In your case, it’s a very small gap that continues to diminish because you are constantly raising your emotional intelligence. Your awareness will bring you many gifts, including relationship and financial opportunities. You’ll invest, cash out and then re-invest in an even more profitable sector. Scorpio and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 10, 31, 2 and 17.
