Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

If you could be anywhere else Monday and Tuesday, you would be, but you can’t. And since you’re here, you might as well face the music. The situation is not nearly as fraught as you might think, and you may actually have fun dealing with things. Wednesday and Thursday are not piece-of-cake days either, but it’s nothing you can’t handle.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

Get things done: Cross them off the list and move on. Such is Monday and Tuesday. This productivity likely comes from you ignoring some deeper emotional question, but when you’re being so efficient, you almost don’t care where it comes from. Toward the middle of the week, you have plenty of time to consider your feelings. A discovery awaits you Thursday. Friday and Saturday, you feel more grounded than you’ve felt in quite a while.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

Entertaining friends is a great way to see them. Make some dinner, find out what’s on TV and try to have as much fun as possible. Or just sit around and chat if you like. Relationships are your focus at the end of the week

and into the weekend. Every impulse to be critical should be ignored. Be the friend you want to have in others.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

Take a deep breath, relax your shoulders and explain what’s going on to someone who cares. That’s all you need to do Monday to relieve this crazy tension you feel. Tuesday, you may hear from someone who brings a whole new level of tension into your week. Just relax. By Wednesday, you won’t have

to remind yourself of

this stuff, and Thursday will be a great day. Friday will find you buried up to your ears in work, but then the weekend will be upon you.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

You can’t figure out what gear to be in Monday. Tuesday, your indecision translates to the commercial realm: Do you want to buy such and such or do you want to shop around? Wednesday and Thursday you barely have to make any decisions — charisma and magnetism decide everything. This week is a roller coaster. Sunday brings equilibrium.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

Maybe what you need to do is draw up a list of some sort. Get organized. Create a budget. This is what you’re feeling Monday and Tuesday, and as tedious as spreadsheets and the like sound, putting things in order is good for you. Wednesday and Thursday are charged days — you and your friends are happy, funny and driven, but Friday is a bit dull.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

You feel like two people at the week’s outset. One of

you has a lot of energy and is set on

tackling problems that have absolutely nothing to do with you; the other is deeply interested in your own interior life, like your goals and feelings. Finding some balance is necessary. A big purchase defines the middle of the week.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’re sensitive Monday and Tuesday, but you’re also remarkably productive. Even good friends won’t be able to tell what’s going on under

your exterior of extreme efficiency. If you want them to know how you feel, you’ll have to tell them. In the friendship realm, things will be at their best.

    Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

    You have everyone’s email addresses, and you have the social capital to make things happen. You’re the one to organize this get-together, which likely involves

    a combination of friends and family. With the stress of the week, you might find yourself taking a walk to clear your head and release some of the pressure on your shoulders, but by Friday, people are going to be thanking you for all you’ve done.

    Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

    You’re a driven person, and sometimes, when things don’t progress as quickly as you like them to, you get frustrated. That’s totally understandable, but also totally unnecessary. Give yourself and others a break. There are good things on the horizon; let the world deliver them to you when it’s ready. Sunday promises to be fantastic.

    Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

    Your intuition is as good as any compass Monday. You can tell where you’re heading, but you wouldn’t be able to articulate it to anyone else. Tuesday you draw on your intuition again to connect with someone on a deep level, but Wednesday and Thursday are superficial and frustrating. Great things await you Friday and Saturday.

    Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

    It’s no one’s fault. Your energies are just mismatched. You proceed through the world with a certain personality, a

    distinct style, and the clash you experience Monday and Tuesday is just a minor incompatibility with someone. Under other circumstances, you might even take to this person. Wednesday and Thursday are incredible days.
