Cancer (June 22-July 22)

You have no head for details Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday are challenging in the communication department. Stick to the facts, speak carefully and avoid the easily misunderstood issue of emotions at all costs. Do this at least until Friday or Saturday.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Spirits and tensions are high Monday, and someone might say something in another room that sounds to you like something else. That could cause you to respond badly. You might even fly off the handle. Tuesday is the same way. You aren’t yourself until Wednesday and Thursday, when, true to form, you’re able to see everyone for their personal strengths, and you can have a good time anywhere.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

The best thing you can give people Monday and Tuesday isn’t gifts or money or anything material, but total respect. Provide them with all the space they need and all the sympathy you’d want. The urge to be critical comes from a good place, but it inevitably comes out sounding sour and dark. The same holds true Wednesday and Thursday.

Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

You’ll be much happier if you notice the world’s smaller aspects. Even just having the day off is a beautiful thing. The rest of the week is entirely within your hands. Focus on people. Everything else will take care of itself. Friday and Saturday, indulgence is in the stars, but watch out. You run the risk of going overboard.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

You have a hard time separating real life and fantasy at the beginning of the week, which isn’t a bad thing. It could become bad, however, in the middle of the week, when you have some serious things to get done. Going for a jog might wake you up a bit to physical reality. Toward the end of the week, you will likely go head-to-head with someone over something you don’t consider a big deal.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

The weekend leaves you without a penny in your pocket at the start of the week. By the middle of the week, you are fully focused on the future: You’re having fun thinking about all the stuff you want to get done. Romance enlivens Thursday, but Friday and Saturday are almost entirely filled with tasks.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

Giving a card to someone at the start of the week may mean a lot more to them than giving a nicely wrapped gift would. Wednesday and Thursday, as much as you feel like you should be getting excited about the future, you find yourself oddly worried. You’re clinging to the past with all of your might. Thankfully, this is a passing thing.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

You are cash-strapped at the beginning of the week. Wednesday and Thursday are brilliant illustrations of all that life has to offer that isn’t related to money whatsoever. You feel freer than you have in a while. Paradoxically, you feel more connected to others. Friday and Saturday find you bogged down for various reasons, but Sunday you have an attitude for success.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

Get your engines going on a new creative project. Tuesday, you have energy to burn. Wednesday and Thursday are all over the place — it’s likely that the coming future is affecting your outlook in ways you don’t realize. Friday and Saturday, sending cards to friends and family gives order to your thoughts. Sunday, if you don’t feel like going to a party, do your own thing.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

This is a weird week for you, and Monday and Tuesday are atypical. Nevertheless, they have some typical Monday and Tuesday traits: slow, quiet, unclear. Nothing really happens until Wednesday, which is a whirling fireball of activity and light. Thursday is the same. Friday and Saturday are staider — you’re focused on money and how much you have or don’t have.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

Take the opportunity Monday and Tuesday to consider your goals. If at all possible, the consideration of your goals is a conversation you should have with someone. Wednesday and Thursday, you’re plagued by indecision and a weird desire to shop, but Friday and Saturday find you

feeling better. Sunday is great.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

It makes sense that you would spend the first part of the week thrown off. Or you may just be in an abstract state of mind. It’s the time for thinking about your future and making personal decisions you might not share right away with others. Nevertheless, Wednesday and Thursday your friends would love to know what you’re thinking, and talking about it might feel good.
