Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

You’re well aware of what everyone else thinks. The pressing question at the start of the week is: What do you think? Pay someone a visit Thursday — go for a walk or possibly bowling — and talk your troubles through. Friday, your deepest hopes suddenly seem clear, and you have the resources you need to make them come to fruition.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

Your new ally may come in a funny disguise at the start of the week. Go outside of your comfort zone and try to connect with someone you almost assuredly have nothing in common with. You may be surprised how wrong you are. The energy you get from this burgeoning friendship will have you buzzing.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

People are crazy. Just when you feel like you and you-know-who are going to take over the world together — in a peaceful, wonderful way — they flake out on you. You can handle that. Toward the second half of the week, your resolve strengthens even more, and you take someone who’s treating you like a doormat to the curb.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

If you’re accused of selfishness at some point in the first half of the week — or if it suddenly dawns on you that you’re being selfish — the easiest fix is to turn the glow of your attention onto someone else. Think about them. Do them a favor they didn’t ask for. Be charming.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

The everyday stuff seems fascinating. Your friends are funnier than ever. Your attachment to them is so strong that Thursday, when you have coffee or dinner with one friend, another may become jealous. Friday, you’re moody and a bit sensitive yourself, but Saturday and Sunday you’re utterly charming.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

You’re busy this week — especially the first half. Action, romance, partnerships and new projects all come into play. Those new projects may not all pan out the way you’d like them to, but your talent right now is simply getting things started, so don’t worry.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

You may be in the mood to buy a new stove, or repaint the kitchen, or go in a new direction with the layout of the garden. But have you considered that what’s really getting under your skin has nothing to do with the kitchen or the garden? If something’s bothering you at home, deal with it directly.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

“You plus friends” is a winning combination — whether it’s you or them, you seem almost psychically connected this week. Your romantic life is active, too. Your needs are being met in just about every realm. Friday, your thinking is concentrated on thwarting the efforts of plotters, but your attitude is unchanging.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

If you’re going to the store at the start of the week, bring a friend. Your shopping is best done with a partner right now. You may need some advice. A conversation with a pal Wednesday about the difference between the things you want and the things you need makes you think. This weekend, if you’re feeling stuck, take a risk.

Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

Your social life is in tip-top shape until around Thursday, when work woes weigh you down. Business matters figure strongly Friday as well. Maybe you’re making up for all that time you spent in coffee shops earlier in the week. Saturday and Sunday, you finally achieve a nice balance between what you have to do and what you want to do.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

Have patience if you find decisions hard to make. Toward the second half of the week, an amazing thing happens: Many answers become apparent. They reveal themselves. You barely have to decide anything. The people you’re drawn to are suddenly drawn to you. This weekend, caught up in the magic, you may go on an unlikely adventure.

    Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

    You need some time to think things through. You need to prepare for what you’re getting into. The major message broadcasted during the first half of the week is that you’re loved by your friends. But that doesn’t solve your career-related quandaries. Wednesday, the law comes into play in some way.
