Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)

Monday is more loaded with syrupy sweetness than a stack of pancakes. Tuesday and Wednesday return you to your daily routine, full of minor victories and everyday setbacks, but the end of the week is completely about relationships. You feel in control of your life and at ease this weekend.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)

At the start of the week, matters in the family realm are anything but harmonious. On Tuesday and Wednesday you view the current difficulties as an opportunity to be creative, and hope to dream up a golden-bullet solution. The truth is, everything might get worse before it gets better. Whatever happens, remember that compromise is a powerful tool. Use it wisely.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21)

You get things the first time around, but others need the basics explained again and again. Think of ways to occupy your mind while everyone else catches up. Tuesday and Wednesday, overactive mental preoccupation may explain why you’re unable to do very basic activities. On Thursday and Friday you’re a superstar in every way. This weekend, take care of some errands you’ve been ignoring.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20)

No matter how flawless a sales pitch seems Monday, now is probably not the time. On Tuesday and Wednesday you’re interested in creative projects — making music, making art or writing letters to people. Thursday and Friday find you a bit lost in the slow, fraught dynamics of a family situation, but Saturday and Sunday are a pleasure.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19)

You are drawn toward someone like a moth toward a flame Monday. There may or may not be romantic content to your attraction; nevertheless, they will be all you can think about. Tuesday and Wednesday find you thinking about yourself and your wallet before anything else, but on Thursday and Friday your thoughts are rich, epic and full of people.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20)

It is within your nature to over-commit. You have big dreams and you don’t want to say no to anyone else’s dreams either. On Tuesday and Wednesday, reconsider your priorities. Thursday and Friday are upside down and bizarre, but the weekend is extremely normal, relaxing and full of love.

Aries (March 21-April 20)

As the week begins, you have a bizarre sense of double vision: You see yourself in the present and, simultaneously, you see where you want to be. Being alone is okay with you. Midweek you hit an emotional speed bump. Your dreams are rich and confusing, and even the simplest tasks seem impossible. Thursday and Friday mark a return to form. The weekend is packed.

Taurus (April 21-May 21)

Monday is driving you crazy because people around you are always on a different page. Spend Tuesday and Wednesday around people who wouldn’t drive you nuts, whose every gesture you anticipate. On Thursday and Friday, don’t jump head-first into anything. Take your time. Test the waters first. This weekend is magical.

Gemini (May 22-June 21)

You’re thinking like a serious philosopher Monday. You like being around people who are nothing like you, who don’t see things the same way. You enjoy a fresh perspective. Tuesday and Wednesday you’re itching for a change. Thursday and Friday, put yourself in the path of your most outspoken friends. You’d like to hear their take on things.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

The disconnect you sense Monday is particularly annoying. You want to talk about how you feel; others want to talk about money. On Tuesday and Wednesday, you will feel in-tune with others. All week long it’s important that you don’t get riled up, that you allow events to take their course. Think of Thursday and Friday as an exercise in taking your time and thinking before speaking — a good warm-up for your social weekend.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

A power struggle at hand seems to be serious Monday. On Tuesday and Wednesday, focus on whether or not you’re in the right, and focus on what others are saying. Just listen. See what you learn. Thursday and Friday are full of plain lessons in odd packages, but this weekend you’re shamelessly radiant.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 23)

Although you have brilliant and constructive ideas, certain things cannot be rushed. Don’t be surprised if other people offer help Tuesday or Wednesday. Not a bad idea, when you think about it. On Thursday and Friday, almost every interaction you have is combative. But you leave work happy Friday. You have a sense this weekend’s going to be good. You’re right.
