Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

Don’t be deterred. Don’t let them tell you it’s impossible. When you set your mind to something, nothing could get in your way. That said, make Tuesday an exercise in modesty, and recognize that Wednesday, when things don’t go your way at home, is just a hiccup on your path toward grandeur. Friday and Saturday are charged with innovation.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

You’re interested in art and music Monday and Tuesday, but you’re more focused on keeping your cash in your wallet. Find a way to do what you want without spending too much dough and you’ll be very happy. Wednesday and Thursday, the way to have fun without spending a lot is to strike up wild conversations with people you don’t know. You spend Friday sorting your thoughts and letting your brain expand, spongelike.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

How you got to be so lucky, you’ll never know. Monday and Tuesday are defined by the accolades people bestow on you. Their support gives you lots of energy, and that energy, in turn, inspires you to change your approach to work or school Wednesday and Thursday. Suddenly, you’re the brilliant one. Use your creativity to your advantage Friday and Saturday.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

People’s motivations are not always apparent. The world hurtles forward in mysterious ways. You’re not sure why things are happening in a certain way Monday and Tuesday, but the mere fact that you’re thinking about such questions places you ahead of the pack. Wednesday and Thursday are inspiring.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

The group needs a leader and all eyes are on you. The group needs a lot of things, you realize, as any true leader would recognize. There are also other reasons why you might be the right person for the job. Wednesday and Thursday, scale back your ambitions and focus on doing a few small things well.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

No matter what happens, keep a clear head. Midweek, your perseverance is richly rewarded — someone may even pin a blue ribbon on your lapel. It may fall off Friday, since the end of the week is going to bring some frustrations. Don’t worry. They’re minor compared to your successes. Sunday, you’re a star.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a tree? To be so grounded, healthy and tall? You’ll get an inkling of this feeling Monday and Tuesday. People will want to sit near you. They’ll regard you with awe. Wednesday and Thursday someone may criticize you. Hold your own in a dignified way, and don’t let them get to you.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

Finding the answer to a question you have Monday requires some detective work. You spend the day (and Tuesday, too) collecting clues and dusting for fingerprints. You’re attempting to bring out the truth. Wednesday and Thursday you’re very influenced by the theories and perspectives of others. A conversation about someone’s opinions has the added benefit of unearthing a lot of facts.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Monday and Tuesday, addressing issues directly is the way to go. What do you have to be embarrassed about? Wednesday and Thursday you’re buoyed by your newfound confidence, but the challenge is to get everyone else around you to address problems directly, as you’re doing. Try to get them to be connected, rather than aloof, and to call a spade a spade.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have enough self-respect to hold off until you get what you want. Others may interpret this as arrogance. Listen to their advice, thank them for their love and then do whatever you feel is right. By midweek, you open up to the idea of flexibility,

but your non-negotiable issues are still non-negotiable. The end of the week, you’re consumed with research.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

You have an arsenal of tools, but your creativity is the most useful at the start of the week. Your recent projects have been attracting attention. If you’re single, you might not be much longer. You’re also ambitious in other realms. By midweek, your regular way of doing things starts to seem both inefficient and boring; a new method for approaching the usual routine is in order.

Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

No matter what’s going on in the present, your mind is dwelling on the past. There’s only one solution: romance. You need something fiery to distract you, to bring you into the now. Luckily, romance figures into Wednesday and Thursday, and beauty plays a major role Friday, too. Saturday is chaos, but Sunday is sweet.
