Taurus (April 21-May 21)

There are a lot of things you’d like to get done early in the week, but Monday and Tuesday aren’t great days for making big decisions. Don’t sign any paperwork. And do your best to avoid impulse buys. You’re better off taking risks in the middle of the week, when your intuition will be stronger and luck will be on your side.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

You’re going to shake a lot of hands early this week, but there’s a chance you’re not going to remember anyone’s name. That’s the drawback to so much social excitement. Friday through Sunday are going to be great days. People love talking to you. Make sure you let them know how much you like talking to them too.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

It’s okay to break out of your shell a bit this week. On Monday and Tuesday especially, expect to be in an adventurous mood. If you have a hankering for an odd meal, by all means have an odd meal. If you’re single, maybe it’s time to do something about that. Over the weekend, think big and buy something for yourself if you can afford it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’re going to be in close contact with your friends all week. On Tuesday, an impromptu brainstorming session is going to produce a brilliant idea. Don’t ignore its potential. On Thursday, someone is going to remark on how warm and sensitive you are, and the comment is going to reinforce all your good feelings toward the world.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

The reason people go to you for advice and guidance is that you have a quick mind and nothing escapes your powers of logic. It’s not that you’re not a warm person. You’re just amazingly perceptive. Still, take care with your communications this week, whether at work or with your family. If you can’t think of the diplomatic thing to say, best to say nothing at all.

Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

A conversation Monday or Tuesday is going to radically alter your perspective on something. More and more you’re going to feel like doing things you wouldn’t normally do. Toward the middle of the week, just keep your head down and get stuff done, but on Friday and over the weekend, spend time around others as much as possible.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

Be careful with your decisions, especially when you are about to drop your signature and make a commitment. In other areas of your life this week, expect to get exactly what you hope for. Make a conscious effort not to control everything and you’ll be pleasantly surprised by what the world sends your way.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

You and your friends’ energy levels are going to be mismatched this week. Follow your mood and don’t be afraid to be a bit introverted Wednesday and Thursday. Over the weekend, travel is in the air. Luck will be on your side. You might randomly land in first class. Or you might meet someone on the bus who changes your life.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

The best thing you can do for yourself the first half of the week is to focus and get things done. Maybe make social plans Wednesday or Thursday evening. On Friday, work is going to be unusually tough. Make an effort not to take anything personally and you’ll be okay. Over the weekend, be polite but don’t give up anything you don’t want to.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

The week begins with a romance and it will bring out your most creative impulses. You might feel strangely emotional Wednesday and Thursday. For whatever reason, it might make you feel better to clean up around the house. Over the weekend, your mind will be full of thoughts about relationships.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

Monday and Tuesday are not good days for any sudden gestures. Be thoughtful and creative. You’ll want to store up your energy for Wednesday and Thursday, days that will most likely be full of romance. The weekend would be a great time to kick off a new fitness routine.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

As long as you remember to keep everyone in the loop, the week should basically be smooth sailing. Monday and Tuesday might be chaos at work, but it will be the fun kind of chaos. Your days will fly by. Your family figures strongly Wednesday and Thursday, and, once again, no matter what comes your way, communication is key.
