Horoscopes

Scissor Moon: A relationship that causes you to continually override your own instincts and feelings is not sustainable. Work that offers you relief only when you sleep or dissociate is abusive. Stop asking, "How can I do this with less strain?" and start asking, "Why am I doing this at all?" The Scorpio moon is an editor with scissors: no crossing it out, just cuts.

aries

March 21-April 19

You will be remarkably efficient and complete a task in record time, mostly because you have to. It's nice to know how cool you are under pressure, and how constraint sharpens you. Next, invest your energy something that actually moves your life forward.

libra

Sept. 23-Oct. 23

Sweep the corners and hang up the broom. A job half-finished drains energy. A job completed gives energy. Today's joy comes from follow-through. You'll sleep better knowing you brought it all the way home.

taurus

April 20-May 20

Emotion is linked to memory, and it's part of the reason that your memory is remarkable. Because you feel things deeply, the lessons will stick. You may forget minutiae, but the essence and meaning resonates deep within you.

scorpio

Oct. 24-Nov. 21

Some small degree of self-sacrifice is all that's required. The amount is barely detectible to you because you've been generous every day for such a long time that it's natural and automatic. If you feel any loss at all, you're giving too much.

gemini

May 21-June 21

Outgrowing relationships is a natural part of life. People evolve, and when your needs shift, it's normal to notice that some connections no longer work. You're being honest with yourself and valuing your own growth.

sagittarius

Nov. 22-Dec. 21

You don't need a grand adventure or sparkling treasure to tell you that you're lucky. You know it, you feel it, you witness your good fortune everywhere, especially in unassuming blessings that send you straight to gratitude. Your gratitude keeps you oriented toward life.

cancer

June 22-July 22

Your project is humming along. It's infused with so much of you now. You're in the perfect moment to refine things, this time with a fresh set of eyes. Invite outsider feedback. As an old Polish proverb goes, "A guest sees more in an hour than the host in a year."

capricorn

Dec. 22-Jan. 19

You'll bear witness to other people's wins. You'll celebrate them because you're generous. You'll ache with longing for your own wins because you're alive. Both truths can be present at the same time. That's the particular tension you're living inside.

leo

July 23-Aug. 22

Hunger is not a misunderstanding. Yearning is not immaturity. Longing for more is not the problem, especially not for someone like you who is willing to work for the "more" and take the risks necessary to bring home the prize.

aquarius

Jan. 20-Feb. 18

In many ways you're an artist and not paid nearly enough for what you do. Just know that your artistry won't disappear because it's underfunded at the moment. Talents wait. Perceptions gather. Sensibilities sharpen. And your payday is coming very soon.

virgo

Aug. 23-Sept. 22

Today favors learning through direct experience rather than theory. Ask better questions. Questions meant to confirm a position answer only that. Shift from "Is this right?" to "What's actually happening?"

pisces

Feb. 19-March 20

If a financial investment doesn't pay off, you can always go make more money. But time is different. Time is a nonrenewable resource. That's why waiting around feels like a violation of something sacred, and maybe it is.
